Chapter 279 Mrs. Wu is gone

The atmosphere in the room turned sharply, and I didn't know what kind of mood to face everything that happened in front of me.

Sadness? Trouble? Regret? No, no, I always feel that it is still a little bit short.

Looking at the pale-faced old lady Wu, I didn't know what to say for a moment.

At this time, Bai Yike beside me actually started sobbing.

It's understandable.

I don’t know when Lao Hei also came to our room.

Lao Hei has returned to his normal body shape, and Lao Hei is still the same size as when we first met him.

Lao Hei is spiritual. He jumped onto the bed and rubbed against the back of Mrs. Wu's hand very well.

It seemed that Lao Hei knew that his master would soon be alive.

"By the way." Old Mrs. Wu said with all her strength: "Old Hei will entrust you." After that, Old Mrs. Wu looked at Bai Yike.

Bai Yike looked at Old Lady Wu with tears in her eyes, expressing her discomfort.

Old Mrs. Wu continued: "Lao Hei has to eat evil spirits to survive. If I die, Lao Hei will have no food. You can't let Lao Hei starve to death."

Bai Yike understood Old Mrs. Wu’s intention and nodded firmly.

After Mrs. Wu said those few words, Lao Hei looked at Bai Yike very spiritually, as if he was knowing his new master.

Old Mrs. Wu seemed to have finished explaining all her life after her death, and she breathed a sigh of relief.

"I waited for that person for fifty years, and it ended up in the end. I don't regret paying so much for him, nor do I blame him for not coming back to find me. I don't even know what kind of power it has allowed me to hold on for so long."

"When I saw you, especially when I knew that this girl was also a living person, I actually felt envy from the bottom of my heart."

As he said that, Old Mrs. Wu raised her thin hand and grabbed my clothes, and said with difficulty: "Promise me, don't let this girl wait too long. Just pretend to fulfill my last wish."

Looking at the poor old lady Wu in front of me, my eyes were also wet.

I kept nodding. Old Mrs. Wu saw my reaction and slowly closed her eyes with a kind smile on her face. Her hand holding my clothes also slid down from my clothes while her eyes closed.

That night, Bai Yike and I took advantage of the dark moon and wind to find a place that I thought was pretty good to bury Mrs. Wu.

Although I am not very good at appearance, things like "appearance" are all based on the same principles.

I don’t know what it is considered as a Feng Shui treasure land, but I know how to avoid taboos. As long as I don’t commit taboos, it can be considered as good as long as I don’t commit taboos.

After burying Mrs. Wu, we only left a grave and no monument because I didn’t know what to write.

We spent only two days with Mrs. Wu. We almost didn’t know her life at all. From the result, she was a pitiful person, but from the process, she was a kind old man.

Old Mrs. Wu has been waiting for fifty years but has not waited for her lover. She has become accustomed to loneliness for so many years, so let her rest here quietly.

The next morning, Zhao Wuji, who had been unconscious for a long time, woke up and saw Bai Yi and he was not surprised.

We greeted Zhao Wuji for a while before he realized that Mrs. Wu was gone.

Zhao Wuji has lived here, and he also knows that the owner of this place is Mrs. Wu, but I don’t know what happened between them.

When we told Zhao Wuji about the death of Old Lady Wu, Zhao Wuji was also silent.

We told Zhao Wuji everything from the time we received his letter, including Mrs. Wu sacrificing his life.

Zhao Wuji became even more silent after hearing this.

We rested for another day in place, and the next day we caught the bus here and returned to the city.

Many passenger buses nowadays do not allow pets to get on the bus. According to Lao Hei's appearance, they will definitely be considered pets. In order to avoid such trouble, Bai Yike secretly hid Lao Hei in his bag, and Lao Hei was also very obedient and did not make trouble along the way.

The moment I stepped into the house, an inexplicable sense of peace of mind surged from the bottom of my heart. Perhaps this is the sense of peace that only home can bring.

When we got home, we told our grandfather about what we saw and heard during this trip, otherwise we would probably not be at ease if we had any words.

Although this trip was quite thrilling, the result was quite good for us. After all, Zhao Wuji was back safely.

The family sat together happily again. During dinner, I said to Zhao Wuji: "How is it? Have you gained anything from the experience during this period?"

Zhao Wuji didn't say anything and suddenly left the dining table.

He took his bag and searched for something inside. After a while, he threw a few signs at me with satisfaction.

I received it and saw it. It was the divine tablet of the thirty-six divine generals.

I counted carefully and there were four in total.

"Awesome, you have dealt with four divine generals in such a short time!" I looked at Zhao Wuji incredibly and said.

"I don't know what's going on. Since I went out to practice, I met one of the thirty-six gods every time. I thought that you had a competition and I needed this kind of experience. Isn't this a god-given opportunity? So I got them all one by one." After that, Zhao Wuji started eating in big mouthfuls.

"By the way, are you still planning to go out and continue to practice?" I was happy and I didn't forget the core content of my conversation.

To be honest, training alone is indeed a good way to improve your strength, but the disadvantage is that you cannot choose your own opponent.

Like Zhao Wuji, if you meet an opponent you can deal with, it will be fine, but if you meet an opponent you can't compete with, just like this time, wouldn't it be cold?

We will save him this time, and we may not be so lucky next time.

After hearing what I said, Zhao Wuji fell into deep thought. Obviously, he was still scared of this encounter.

Before Zhao Wuji could answer, grandpa said first: "You should stop going anywhere."

Well? It was my grandfather who agreed to Zhao Wuji go out to experience it. Now, looking at the words, he will not let Zhao Wuji go to experience it alone.

Grandpa has never rebelled like this.

Grandpa put down his chopsticks and looked at us seriously and said, "From the beginning, I didn't agree with Zhao Wuji going out alone to experience it, but who hasn't been young yet, so I know your ideas very well. If I haven't experienced the dangers of the outside world, even if I talk about the outside world, you won't believe in danger, but will be even more curious."

As he said that, his grandfather turned his eyes to Zhao Wuji, "How about it, did you know the danger of the outside world this time?"

Zhao Wuji nodded in shame.

"Don't think that the story of the protagonist who goes out alone in TV or novels is cool. It's a dramatic expression. There are not so many critical things in real life that can get out of danger, and your life is only once. I hope you don't joke about it anymore."
