Chapter 309: Old Hatred and New Hatred (2)
Zhang Fan's mind was unable to return to his body, feeling the gradually cold Fu Bo's body, he kept asking himself why he didn't come earlier, why he treated a kind-hearted old man like this, but even if he asked why, he couldn't change Fu Bo's current status quo at all, only to see that his spiritual power also began to have no effect on Fu Bo's Qi Jing Eight Veins, Zhang Fan was annoyed by his own powerlessness, and Fu Bo, who was originally in a deep coma and prepared to meet death, may be the legendary return to the light.
Fu Bo suddenly took a deep breath, opened his lifeless eyes on his pale face, and saw that it was Zhang Fan beside him, and he was also happy in his heart, and whispered intermittently and weakly: "Zhang, childe, yes, you........."
"What, Fubo, what do you want to say?" Zhang Fan leaned his left ear in front of Fubo's face to hear Fuber's faint words clearly.
"Zhang Gongzi, it's really good to see you for the last time, as soon as those people came in, they asked me about the spirit core or something, and they wanted to find our treasure house, but they couldn't find it, cough cough, old man, I don't have any other attachment, the only thing I can't worry about is Xiaoyi, the only good granddaughter, Zhang Gongzi, can the old man ask you for something, please, please do it, be sure to agree." β
"Fauber, you say, I'll do my best to help you with anything. Zhang Fan clenched Fu Bo's gradually cold hand, even if his spiritual power no longer worked, he still kept transmitting his spiritual power, maybe doing so could make Zhang Fan feel a little less sad.
"Zhang Gongzi, please help me take care of Xiaoyi, even if you only take care of her until she can be self-reliant, our Sun family has nothing to repay Gongzi, if Gongzi doesn't dislike the things in this treasure house, you can take it at will, it will be regarded as alimony for Xiaoyi, please take care of Xiaoyi more in the future, cough cough cough ........."
"Fu Bo, don't worry, I said before, Xiaoyi is my Zhang Fan's sister, I will definitely protect her and not let her be hurt in the slightest, I Zhang Fan swear by the blood in my heart!"
When Fu Bo heard Zhang Fan's firm words, he also let go of the only memory in his heart, and his original pale face also revealed the last smile, a smile that no longer has pain, no more sadness, no more sorrow, that smile is so peaceful and kind, there was still a slight temperature of the calloused hand, just when the smile bloomed, it completely lost the temperature of life, at this moment Zhang Fan held Fu Bo's hand so cold that it even made him cold, he could only just look at it, looking at the last kind parting smile when Fu Bo leftγ
The cold wind is bleak and the moon is cloudy, and the finches are speechless and stay in the tomb. A new tomb was built on the top of the hill behind the old house of the Sun family, day and night watching the hometown of the Sun family below, Zhang Fan and the three of them kowtowed in front of Fu Bo's grave, looking at the dilapidated scene of the old house of the Sun family under the mountain, thinking of the scarred tragic situation of Fu Bo just now, the resentment in Zhang Fan's heart was even more difficult to dissolve, "Shadow Gate! The old hatred has not been solved and new hatred has been added! You wait! This Liangzi and I Zhang Fan have made a deal with you!"
Looking at Zhang Fan's angry appearance, Zigu was also resentful, but Lian Qiong on the side knew very well that even if the current Shadow Gate was not as strong as the Shadow Gate a thousand years ago, after all, they had inherited the heritage of the Shadow Gate, and after this thousand years of development, even if it was not good, it could be said that it was much stronger than the so-called power sect in the current Lingdu, with Zhang Fan's current strength and background, it may not be a wise move to blatantly seek revenge in the past, Zigu asked on the side: "Senior brother, what are you going to do?"
Lian Qiong's worried face was also seen by Zhang Fan, he understood Lian Qiong's worries, after all, he really didn't have the confidence to argue with a sect that had developed for thousands of years, and even if Zhang Fan really looked for revenge from the shadow gate, the odds of winning were not great, and Zhang Fan moved, then the spirit department would inevitably follow suit, but now that the spirit department is growing stronger, Zhang Fan can't bury the efforts made by everyone in the spirit department like this, Zhang Fan took a deep breath and adjusted his emotions and said: " Even big brother, I know your concerns, and I also understand that it may not be a right choice to go to the shadow door to seek revenge now, don't worry, I won't do such a stupid thing, I will keep this account in mind, it's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, sooner or later we will find them to settle the old accounts together, and the people behind it!"
Lian Qiong also appreciated Zhang Fan's character, after all, according to the actions of a young man with strong blood, I am afraid that he would have rushed over and fought with Yingmen without saying a word, but Zhang Fan actually endured it, and Lian Qiong nodded in his heart and said: "It is worthy of him, no wonder no one dared to shake his position when he turned the world upside down." β
"You're right to think so, instead of seeking revenge, I think you still have to think about how to talk to Xiaoyi about this matter. Zhang Fan didn't know what Lian Qiong said, but Zhang Fan really didn't know how to tell Xiaoyi, and asked him to tell a little girl who was less than eight years old, telling her that she was now her only grandfather and only relatives were killed, such a cruel reality Zhang Fan really didn't want to forcibly impose on a little girl who should be innocent and happy, which would make her bear the burden that she shouldn't have at her age, but Xiaoyi is Fubo's relative after all, she has the right to know, and even if she can hide it for a while, she can't hide it for a lifetime, after all, Xiaoyi still has to learn to accept this cruel reality, Zhang Fan looked up to the sky and sighed and said: "Hey, let's go, let's go back to the spiritual department first. β
Zhang Fan and the others returned to the spiritual department, along the way, Zhang Fan thought of many ways to tell Xiaoyi, but Zhang Fan felt that it was not appropriate, instead of hinting at Xiaoyi in a roundabout way, it was better to tell her directly, maybe this matter is also an opportunity for her to grow up and recognize this cruel world.
Zhang Fan originally wanted to talk to Xiaofei about what had just happened, but she and Xiaoyi were no longer in the dormitory, and only after asking the guards did they know that Xiaofei had gone to the cultivation mountain, when Zhang Fan came to the cultivation mountain, what he saw was on the bench outside the cultivation room, where Xiaoyi and Xiaofei were snuggling up to each other and sleeping, Zhang Fan gently woke up Xiaofei, "Sister Xiaofei, why are you sleeping here?"
Xiao Fei tried her best not to wake up the sleeping Xiao Yi, and said softly: "It's not because of this stupid girl, I heard that you are cultivating and saying that I have to work hard with you to cultivate, if I hadn't stopped the empty stone room, she would have entered a long time ago, or did I repeatedly stop her to wait outside for you to come out after you finish cultivating." β
Zhang Fan pulled Xiao Fei aside and told her what happened tonight, Xiao Fei also looked at Xiao Yi who was sleeping sadly when she heard this, and said angrily: "This damn shadow door, and the mastermind behind the scenes, they treat Xiao Yi's family like this is really hateful, we will get Xiao Yi back sooner or later!" "It's natural, I can bully me, but I can't bully the people I cherish next to me!" "Then junior brother, when are you going to tell Xiao Yi?"
Zhang Fan took off the long clothes on his body and gently put them on Xiao Yi, sat next to him and looked at Xiao Yi petting her little head and said, "Let her sleep carefree again, and wait until she wakes up, Sister Xiaofei, tomorrow's exercise teaching and spiritual weapons will be temporarily suppressed." "Well, I know, you can accompany Xiaoyi to explain." "Even Big Brother, Senior Brother Zigu, go back and rest first. After Zhang Fan asked everyone to leave and go back to rest, he also sighed and stayed next to Xiaoyi in this long night.
The breeze was blowing, the birds were singing, the first rays of morning light in the morning were softly sprinkled on Xiao Yi's red sleeping face, the temperature of the morning light woke up Xiao Yi in her sleep, rubbing her hazy sleepy eyes, Xiao Yi didn't see Zhang Fan at the first sight when she woke up, and hurriedly said happily: "Brother, have you finished cultivating?" Why don't you wake me up." β
Zhang Fan has actually not been able to sleep since last night, and when he remembered that he would personally tell Xiao Yi a news that made her miserable later, how could Zhang Fan fall asleep with peace of mind, Zhang Fan handed Xiao Yi a photo he got from the Sun family's old mansion, "Xiao Yi, what do you see this?" Xiao Yi took a look and said happily: "Isn't this a family photo of my family? This is what your grandfather asked me to give to you, if you miss him in the future, you can take a look at the family photos of your family, at least in the photos, your family is happy and reunited. β
"Well, good. Xiao Yi held this family photo in her arms, and replied with a low face, maybe she remembered her parents again, seeing Xiao Yi's expression, Zhang Fan really didn't want to hit her again, but he had to tell her, because not telling her was disrespectful to Xiao Yi, and the longer it dragged on, the greater the damage to Xiao Yi.
"Xiaoyi," Zhang Fan said with helplessness and sadness in his eyes, "Your grandfather was at home last night........." Xiaoyi blinked his confused eyes and asked, "Brother, haven't you been cultivating last night?"
"Xiaoyi, you promise your brother first, no matter what you hear later, you have to be calm, okay? No matter what happens, your brother will be by your side. "Brother, what's wrong with you, why are you talking weirdly today?"
"Xiaoyi, your grandfather died at home last night. β
"............" Xiaoyi thought that Zhang Fan was joking with herself at first, but when she saw Zhang Fan's eyes, she knew that her brother did not lie to her, her only relative in this world had really left, and her big eyes were about to be filled with tears, but Xiaoyi stood up and didn't say a word, as if she was lost and down, she walked forward. Zhang Fan hurriedly grabbed Xiaoyi and asked, "Xiaoyi, don't be like this, if you want to cry, then cry, where do you want to go?"
"I thought, go home. β
"Okay, let's go home, go home. β
Zhang Fan and Xiao Yi walked through the Spirit Department one after the other, and walked towards the nearest teleportation array in the Spirit City, and Xiao Fei, who had been assisting the elders in Ziyun Square to arrange for the newcomers to rush to the Spirit first, saw Zhang Fan and Xiao Yi passing by the square, and then saw Xiao Yi's expressionless appearance, they were also very worried, and after directly explaining the situation to Li Lao, they followed behind Zhang Fan together.
Ten minutes later, Xiao Yi returned to her home in the imperial city, looking at the ruined mansion at this time, Xiao Yi just walked to the door of the living room, and struggled to pick up the wooden chaise longue that had fallen aside, "This is grandpa's favorite chair......" Passing through the house and coming to the back mountain, a new grave appeared in Xiaoyi's eyes, looking at the tiny photo of her most loving grandfather on the tombstone, Xiaoyi's suppressed tears were pouring out like a flood bursting the embankment at this moment, but her immature voice was crying out of heart-rending pain.
Seeing Xiaoyi holding the tombstone and crying heartbreakingly, Zhang Fan and Xiaofei both stepped forward to hug her and comforted her: "Okay, Xiaoyi, okay, it's okay, it's going to pass." "Xiaoyi, don't be like this, Sister Xiaofei can't help crying, Xiaoyi, your grandfather won't want to see you so sad." "Xiaoyi, you still have your brother, Sister Xiaofei, Sister Fang Yu, and Senior Brother Zigu, we are all your family, you won't be alone." "Yes, yes, Xiaoyi, in the future, the spiritual department will be your home, and we will all be your family, you have to be strong, let your grandfather see that Xiaoyi has grown up, is strong, and will take care of herself, okay?"
"Grandpa, woo woo woo ............"
Crying in front of Fu Bo's grave for a long time, Xiao Yi's eyes were red and swollen and bloodshot, and in the end, she may have been tired of crying, but she fell asleep in Zhang Fan's arms with sweat, "Grandpa......" Even in her sleep, Xiaoyi was still calling her grandfather, "Sleep, Xiaoyi, at least you can have a good dream with your family in your dreams." β
Zhang Fan took Xiaoyi back to the grandson's house to rest, you can see how sad Xiaoyi is crying, at this time she still has tears in the corners of her eyes, and she slept in the room for almost a whole afternoon, Xiaoyi returned to the cruel reality from the happy dream, looking at the empty room and looking at the objects that the grandfather had been using in the past, Xiaoyi's tears fell uncontrollably again, and the three Zhang Fan, who had been guarding outside the room, heard the sound and entered the room, only to see Xiaoyi rush directly to Zhang Fan's arms and cry again.
"Xiao Yi is good, my brother knows that you are very uncomfortable, and he also knows that the pain of losing your loved ones is like a worm that burrows into your heart, making you feel almost out of breath," Zhang Fan squatted down and looked directly at Xiao Yi's teary eyes, and said with firmness and love in his eyes: " But Xiaoyi has to be strong, you don't want grandpa to worry about you in the spirit of heaven, from now on we are your relatives, and my brother promised you that no matter how much time it takes and what kind of price it takes, my brother will definitely make the murderer of Fu Bo pay a terrible price!!"
Xiao Yi held back her sobs, and nodded her little head firmly to Zhang Fan, in the next few days, Zhang Fan stayed in the Sun family with Xiao Yi to keep filial piety for Fu Bo, and Zigu and others also came to comfort and persuade Xiao Yi one after another, even Fang Yu, who had already returned to Fang's house, hurriedly came after hearing the news, and Zhang Fan also confirmed his guess from Fang Yu's slightly blue and pale face, Fang Yu's sudden return home should be related to the curse.
