[Chapter 68]

As the days passed, there was a lot of laughable news among the soldiers of the Tiecang tribe - the young patriarch had gone crazy. At first, it was just that the man with no scars on his face went back to his residence to talk to others about the last incident, but it turned out to be spread ten or ten, and the more it spread, the more exaggerated it became, and later it became that the young patriarch had a nervous breakdown because he knew that the Tiecang tribe was about to perish, and behaved strangely all day long, and said something inconsequential like crazy. Many soldiers didn't know Tie Hongyan, and they didn't usually have many opportunities to see her, and when they heard others spread this, whether the news was true or not, they all felt more deeply the helplessness of the Tiecang tribe.

When the news reached Wu Xunsheng, he hadn't seen Tie Hongyan for two days, and although he didn't believe the rumors, he had an indescribable urge to find out. In his eyes, when she grew up, Tie Hongyan was always full of confidence and strong in her heart, and nothing seemed to make her collapse, but he suddenly recalled her when she was a child, and playing with paper kites made her laugh. Thinking of this, he shook his head and smiled at himself - how long ago was that, how could he still remember it so clearly? Now she and she are not the children of the past. He had just told himself that the rumor was false, and he didn't have to think about it anymore, but he couldn't help but think about it, could she just be strong on the surface, but there was nowhere to talk about the bitterness in her heart? The Tiecang clan has suffered a heavy blow, after all, she is a young patriarch, will she be extremely sad about this? Thinking of this, he immediately blamed himself, blaming himself for always thinking about things he shouldn't think, so he forcibly diverted his attention and went to find clothes to wear the next day.

When looking for clothes, he accidentally saw the cloth bag that Tie Hongyan took when he ran away from home when he was a child, and recalled the first time he saw her, she was afraid that she would starve to death, so she gave all the snacks to herself, but when she really ate up her snacks, she cried again, because those snacks were all her hope that she would "no longer be bullied" at that time. In front of his eyes, he reappeared the scene when Tie Hongyan gave him the cloth bag that year and said, "Give it to you, don't give it to me", and the scene when she said "Wu Xunsheng is my sparring partner and my person" when she was bullied, and too many bits and pieces of being together when they were children emerged. He threw away these impressions of himself with all his might, but the memories still followed him clearly. He had long known that as he grew up, the two would inevitably get farther and farther apart, but the memories of his childhood made him want to get close to her, but he really couldn't get too close to her, and reason would remind him of this from time to time.

It had been a long time since he had taken the initiative to look for her at Tie Hongyan's residence, and at this moment he suddenly had an indescribable feeling as if he was going to bypass his reason and lead him away. This prompted him to put down his cloth bag, take out the clothes he was going to wear the next day, and then walked out the door, slowly walking towards Iron Red Flame's residence.

As he walked, reason overcame the indescribable feeling and stopped him.

He turned and walked back.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he turned around, he heard a crisp voice behind him: "Wu Xunsheng, what are you doing here?" ”

The voice was made by Tie Hongyan, of course he heard it, he was stunned for a moment, then immediately turned around and said softly: "Young Patriarch, I was about to go back, passing by here." ”
