Chapter 4: Parting

This injury really made Wu Shi'an lie on the bed for three months, but what made Wu Shi depressed was that the little tiger who would come to complain or play with him from time to time had never come once, not to mention that he was still sick in bed.

During this period, Wu Shi also asked Tu Lao and Xiaohu about his condition, and regardless of the recovery of his body, he wanted to find Xiaohu, but he was prevaricated by Tu Lao's soft and hard work.

On this day, Wu Shi was already able to get out of bed and walk on his own, so he didn't calm down anymore and ran next door.

Because slowly, Wu Shi felt more and more that Tu Lao was hiding something from him, and he couldn't ask, so he had to find out in person.

When Wu Shi came to the gate of Xiaohu's courtyard, he was stunned by the scene in front of him.

For no other reason, two old white lanterns were hung high in the originally simple courtyard, and a big word "mourning" could be vaguely seen printed on it.

Wu Shi trembled and pushed open the half-hidden wooden door, it was still a familiar scene, but it was already empty, overgrown with weeds, and covered with cobwebs swaying in the wind.

Wu Shi looked intently, and on the desk in the room with the door wide open, two eye-catching wooden plaques stood proudly on it.

Wu Shi was reluctant to approach, but was in a daze.

Then Fei also rushed out of the door and returned home.

"See!"

Tu Lao lay leisurely on the recliner, closing his eyes.

"They ......"

Wu Shi, who was lost and depressed, thought about it and raised his hand, pointed to the next door, and stopped talking.

Tu Lao was not hiding it, he slowly told the events of the day, and it seemed to be just a very ordinary thing in his words.

And the fact also made Wu Shi like a thunderbolt in the clear sky, his eyes became hollow, and he was stunned!

"And the tiger mother, because of excessive grief, was angry and bloody for a while, and soon followed!"

"So, Xiaohu is ...... for me"

Thinking of this, Wu Shi's eyes were gloomy, his fists were clenched, his fingertips were embedded in his palms, he didn't feel pain, and gritted his teeth and said:

"Cangyun Sect!"

I turned and walked away.

Tu Lao drank in time: "Stop!"

Wu Shi stopped at this time.

"I want to avenge Xiaohu......"

A simple sentence, full of hatred.

"Just you?" Tu Lao's words choked Wu Shi back.

"Do you know where the Cangyun Sect is?"

"Even if you arrive at the Cangyun Sect, what can you do?"

"Have you forgotten why you've been in bed for three months?"

A few questions in a row immediately extinguished the three thousand karmic fires in Wu Shi's heart.

Wu Shi was silent, yes, what do I take to take revenge? Is it just this thick-skinned body?

Thinking of Zhou Qing's sudden disappearance, and suddenly appearing beside him, and then thinking of Qing Tong's simple palm, he passed by death.

Wu Shi felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart, and sat on the stool next to him with a deflated ass.

"What should I do? Xiaohu's death can't just be forgotten! ”

Wu Shi muttered to himself.

Looking at Wu Shi's decadent appearance, he felt reluctant for a while.

He said slowly: "I know why I didn't let you know the truth when you were in bed!"

"Look at what you look like now... Where is the spirit of the past! ”

With that, Tu Lao slowly got up and walked to the inner room.

When he came out, he was holding a square item wrapped in a red belt, which was Wu Shi's initial impression.

Under Wu Shi's gaze, Tu Lao put it on the table, untied the belt layer by layer, revealing the palm-sized jade box inside.

It is said to be a jade box, but it does not have the moisture of jade at all, and it looks dull.

"Come here!"

Tu Lao softly called Wu Shi and pushed the jade box in front of Wu Shi.

"This is ......," Wu Shi asked.

Tu Lao did not explain directly, but walked to the side with his hands on his back, and said slowly:

"Your character is destined to make your life not ordinary, you still need to set foot on this avenue after all, and there are thousands of avenues in this world, choose one, and the result will be a good end!"

Then he turned around and looked at Wu Shi with deep affection.

"Wu Shi, you are what I watched grow up, if you can, I hope you can be an ordinary person and live a stable life, but ......"

Tu Lao wanted to speak and stopped, his heart was full of helplessness.

"What...... What do you mean? Wu Shi vaguely guessed something.

"Let's go!" Tu Lao reluctantly gave the answer.

"Now you will only bring trouble or even ruin to Jiangxing Village, hundreds of villagers in the whole village, they ...... Can't afford to lose! ”

"Why, I didn't do anything!" Wu Shi didn't understand why Tu Lao said this.

"Yes, you haven't done anything now, but in the future, will you let go of Xiaohu's hatred? Won't you go to Cangyun Sect to find them for revenge?"

"Little Tiger ......"

Wu Shi was silent, he couldn't, he was responsible for Xiaohu's death, and Cangyun Sect was the initiator, as Tu Lao said, his personality dictated that he would not easily let go of this hatred, otherwise, it would be a scar in his heart that would never be easily healed.

"I'll go, Old Man Tu, one person will do things one person, I won't bring the disaster to Jiangxing Village, please rest assured, just leave you alone...... :

Seeing that Wu Shi had made up his mind, Tu Lao's nervous heart was relieved, a long-lost smile appeared on his face, and he immediately stroked his beard and said confidently:

"Although the old man is dying, he is not so much that he can't even take care of himself, and he can't die of hunger, don't worry!"

Having said that, Wu Shi still can't rest assured about Tu Lao, for so many years, he has basically taken care of Old Man Tu's daily life, and he is still a little reluctant to leave rashly, and thousands of feelings linger in his heart.

Seeing that Wu Shi was still a little twisted, Tu Lao's heart suddenly warmed, it was really in vain that I raised him with hard work.

Then he pointed to the jade box and explained: "This box, you take it away, I got it by chance when I was young, as for its origin and function, I don't know, you need to solve this puzzle yourself!"

"Besides, I have a token here, and you can bring it with you!"

As he spoke, he took out a rustic wooden token from his arms, Wu Shi took the token and looked back and forth.

In addition to the ordinary, there is only the ordinary, the obvious piece of wood is cut, except for the old and a big blue character written on it with a brush, there is nothing special in the slightest,

"Old man, this ...... Is it a token? Wu Shihu said suspiciously.

"yes, what's the problem?"

"I didn't ...... No problem! "Wu Shi is embarrassed, this is too unrigorous, if he didn't know Tu Lao's personality, Wu Shi would definitely throw it away when he went out, this token, he could make ten or eight for him at will.

"Qinghe Sect, the fourth largest sect in Beifu, think about it, Qing......" Tu Lao was about to explain with burning words, but was interrupted by Wu Shi.

"Wait......"

"Old man, didn't you say that there are only three sects in Beifu! Then where did this Qinghe Sect come from, why haven't you heard you mention it, this sect made out of nothing, big characters, is it too sloppy! ”

When Tu Lao heard this, he was instantly angry, and his hand was a brain melon.

"Stinky boy, what do you know, the world is big, there are no surprises, since a sect can be self-contained, big or small, or well-known, or unknown, but as long as it exists and stands, then he must have his own unique heritage to support his growth and development."

"I didn't mention what's wrong, doesn't it mean that he doesn't exist, that can only mean that he has a lot of room to rise, isn't it! Besides, it's also a sect, and the things in it are enough for you to learn for a lifetime..."

"If you don't want to go, you ...... You give it back to me! ”

As he spoke, he was about to snatch it back from Wu Shi's hands.

Wu Shi was willing to let go, the hand holding the token quickly shrank, put it in his arms, and looked at Tu Lao "hehe" and smirked.

"Stinky Boy ......"

Tu Lao smiled heartily: "You take this token and go to Qinghe Sect, no matter what, they will accept you, and the rest depends on your own creation..."

Wu Shi did not doubt the authenticity of Tu Lao's words, nor would he investigate the origin of Tu Lao's things, or even his own origin.

Take 10,000 steps back, what Tu Lao explained is beneficial to himself and harmless.

As for this, Wu Shi no longer hesitated, simply packed up some clothes, and reluctantly said goodbye to Tu Lao, and said goodbye to this Jiangxing Village who had lived for 14 years.

It's just that before leaving, Tu Lao repeatedly instructed that the origin of the token, there is no need to say much, just tell the truth, but the existence of the jade box must not be shared with others, even if it is the closest person.
