Chapter Thirty-Seven: Amber Heavy Light

"Even if I want him to be closed forever and never see each other again, won't you stop it?"

Yue's body stiffened, and a complex and indescribable bitterness crossed his heart.

"Even if you don't do it, sooner or later he won't be able to escape God's punishment. In that case, I'd rather let you do it. ”

Xing was silent for a moment, and without looking back, he gently broke the hand that Yue was holding around his waist, and Yue's heart also cooled.

Even so, is it too late?

But when her hand completely slipped from his waist, she was immediately embraced with warmth.

"If you are a calamity that I can't avoid, even if it's poison, I'm willing to eat it, but you must also understand that since I am the god of war appointed by heaven, I will never be able to relieve myself of the responsibility on my shoulders. Sooner or later, there will be a break between me and him, and there is no way to have it both ways. Whether to hold the sword for me or stand by is up to you, I don't force you, but the promise I made to you has to be broken, I'm sorry. ”

Xing Li hugged Yue in his arms and whispered in her ear, but when the words fell, he suddenly let go of his hands.

The temperature of his fingertips dissipated, and before Yue could respond, he had already turned around and left her alone.

Do you want to move forward or stay where you are?

She had stood by his side to fight against foreign enemies, but now his sword was pointing at death.

"Miss Yu?"

Yue stood silent in the night wind for a long time, and it was not until Lu Chongguang's surprised voice came that Yue suddenly came back to his senses.

"It's already this hour, why hasn't Boss Lu rested?"

Lu Chongguang glanced at Yue's face, thinking of the news he heard during the day, and a little speculation flashed in his heart, but he didn't break it.

"I've been busy these days, but I can't rest assured that Chen Yuan is here, so I came over to take a look."

Yue remembered the conversation between Fang Caixing and Chen Yuan, and suddenly couldn't bear to look directly at Lu Chongguang's earnest gaze, so he had to drop his eyes silently, Lu Chongguang didn't notice her abnormality, and just went on.

"It's getting late, and the girl is not familiar with the Lu Mansion, why don't you ask the girl to stay for a while, and then send the girl back in person after I have seen Chen Yuan?"

Yue subconsciously wanted to refuse, but when he thought about it, he remembered the questions that haunted his heart and didn't have time to speak.

"It's okay, then I'll bother Boss Lu."

Lu Chongguang turned around and entered Beiyuan, but Yue waited outside.

I vaguely heard Chen Yuan's reluctant and slightly angry roar, probably because Lu Chongguang saw the drunk and unconscious Chen Yuan sleeping in the courtyard, and wanted to help him in, but the two inevitably quarreled a few words.

It didn't take long for him to see Lu Chongguang walking out quickly, but his face was not very good.

Lu Chongguang saw Yue staring at him, and barely squeezed out a smile, but Yue really felt a little bad in his heart.

"Let the girl smile."

"It doesn't matter."

Lu Chongguang said in a low voice, but he didn't mention anything about Fang Cai, but silently led Yue to the East Courtyard.

"I have a question that I haven't been able to understand, can Boss Lu solve a question or two for me?"

"The girl is polite, as long as Chongguang knows, she must know everything."

"Since Boss Lu is the one who is punished, he can ask the torture to avenge you, why do you have to go around this big circle and do everything possible to send this matter to Wusheng Building?"

"What? Didn't the girl know about it? ”

Lu Chongguang stopped suddenly, looking at Yue in confusion and surprise, Yue was puzzled by the second monk he looked at, but he really didn't know what he meant by this sentence.

"Should I know?"

"This... I thought that the Lord should have told the girl the reason, but I didn't expect that the girl would be kept in the dark from beginning to end. ”

Lu Chongguang's tone was a little emotional, Yue's heart jumped, and some unbelievable thoughts suddenly flashed, could it be that there is still a calculation of punishment in this matter?

"It's not a big deal, it's just that if you talk about it from the beginning, it's a bit long, I don't know...

"Let's start from the beginning, Boss Lu."

"It's okay...

Lu Chongguang agreed, but after thinking about it for a moment, he slowly began to speak.

It turned out that Lu Chongguang was not surnamed Lu, and the reason why the door of Amber Hill was open for him was because he was originally surnamed Amber and Amber Chongguang.

Decades ago, several young people whose parents died early did not want to die in the bitter cold land of Amber Hill for the rest of their lives, and secretly left Amber Hill despite the opposition of their clansmen.

However, only two of the seven people who went on the road together made it out alive.

The two of them finally left Amber Hill, but at that time, the northern country was also in civil war, and the people were struggling to make a living. So the two of them came to Qi again, and finally settled down in Suzhou, living next to each other and relying on each other.

Since these two young people were determined to stay in Qi to make a living, they naturally could no longer use the identity of the northern country, so they called themselves two brothers and changed their surnames to Lu at the same time.

Although the Qi State is more stable than the northern country, the life in the north of Suzhou is hard, and it is far less fertile than the Huai River in Yudu.

But the two countries are not in harmony, and they can't change the appearance of the northerners, and only Suzhou can accept them.

Fortunately, although life was not easy, they still persevered, and they married wives and had children in Suzhou one after another, and they also lived a stable life for a few years.

But the good times did not last long, the boss's wife died early due to illness, and the following year Suzhou suffered a major drought, and there was no harvest in the fields. The eldest saw that the people in the same village still had some income, so he handed over all the fields and children in the family to his younger brother to take care of, and followed others to become a businessman.

It was very hard at first, but it finally got smoother and smoother, and the brothers' lives gradually improved.

Later, the eldest son's son grew up and was smart, so he often followed the eldest to go out to run business. Although the boss has also encountered some turmoil in the past few years, he is still in danger, but there was still an accident until that year.

"I will never forget that year, my father and I originally planned to go to Quanzhou to sell goods, but on the way we met bandits on Fengming Mountain, fortunately my father dragged those bandits, and I escaped. I was seriously injured alone, and before I knew it, I walked near Quanzhou, and I was rescued by Chen Yuan. But then ... ”

Lu Chongguang's tone was very painful, Xu remembered those tragic pasts, Yue couldn't bear to see him like this again, so he changed the topic.

"Then how did you get involved with torture?"

"My father and uncle were born and died together over the years, and although they are not brothers, they have long been relatives who depend on each other. So although my father has been walking outside a lot over the years, he will always think of telling his uncle that he is safe whenever he goes to a place. But this time, my uncle waited in Suzhou for several days but couldn't wait for news from my father. Even the other villagers who left for Quanzhou at the same time as us had already returned to Suzhou, so my uncle was sure that something must have happened to us. So he immediately packed his bags and followed the route taken by his father all the way to Quanzhou, but when he arrived in Quanzhou, he inquired in many ways, and then he learned that our caravan had encountered the robbers of Fengming Mountain on the way to Quanzhou, and had suffered misfortune. Uncle wanted to avenge us, but he was weak and tried to sneak into Fengming Mountain many times in vain, and he thought that the government asked for help but it was useless, so he really had no choice but to return to Suzhou first. It wasn't until later, when I returned to Suzhou with the seriously injured Chen Yuan and my father, who was seriously ill and dying, that my uncle learned the ins and outs of all this.

I originally just wanted to avenge my father, so I stayed in Quanzhou and waited for the opportunity, but later... I really regret that I didn't do it at the beginning, but the big mistake has been made, although I rescued my father, but he died not long after we returned to Suzhou. Although Chen Yuan was lucky enough to pick up a life, his body was ruined. Maybe that's my retribution ... ”

Lu Chongguang let out a long sigh of relief, and waited for the bitterness in his chest to dissipate a little, and then continued.

"Chen Yuan and I stayed in Suzhou for nearly a year, until his health was a little better, and then I accompanied him back to Quanzhou. But the Chen Mansion has long been in ruins, I secretly entered Fengming Mountain, but found that even the thieves' den on Fengming Mountain was destroyed, and Wei Hu and others were even more missing. We were afraid that someone would find out that Chen Yuan was still alive, so we didn't dare to stay in Quanzhou for a long time, so we had to return to Suzhou. Later, thanks to my uncle, who gave me all the money my father had saved from running a business in the past few years, we started a silk business with this money. Speaking of which, the reason why our business can do so much is thanks to Chen Yuan. Although his personality has changed greatly and his health is not good, he is very good at doing business, he is simply a natural businessman, but in a few years, he has made Lu's Silk Village impressive.

Later, we drove the silk village to Wuzhou, and only then did we learn of Wei Hu's whereabouts by chance. But Wei Hubai's business is not good, and those unsightly things behind his back are his old business. The two of us had no choice but to take revenge on him, so we could only lie dormant and wait for the opportunity.

It wasn't until a few years ago that the Lord unified the Northern Kingdom with the Amber Hill Division, and my uncle brought the two of us to the Lord.

Although the lord agreed, he had just unified the northern kingdom at that time, and he had no power in the Qi country. Although it was easy to kill Wei Hu alone with the master's kung fu, it could not uproot all his forces. That's why he secretly supported us, not only making our business bigger and bigger, but also gradually burying the power of the northern country into the Qi country. ”

"Now that the time is ripe, why doesn't he fulfill his promise to avenge you, but instead send him to the Lifeless Building?"

Yue asked suspiciously, but Lu Chongguang's words suddenly stopped, hesitated for a long time, and secretly glanced at Yue several times, and then finally made up his mind.

"The Lord is doing this for the sake of the girl."

Yue's eyes widened in surprise, he didn't expect to ask such an answer, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.

"I don't know why the Lord is hiding it from the girl, but it is true. The Lord could have directly taken all of Wei Hu's forces for us, but he personally begged me to wait for a while, saying that in order to bring a very important person back to him, he had to send our affairs to Wushenglou. ”
