MTL - The Global Reshuffle of Space-Chapter 29 Waner
Chapter 29 Wan'er
"Wan'er, wait a little longer, I can take you home in a few days!"
Xiao Xingzhou carefully wiped off the dirt on the box, peeled off the waterproof paper, and saw the thousand-year-old black agarwood box the size of a palm.
There is no word on the box, only a mandarin duck button.
Xiao Xingzhou caressed the box affectionately, as if his wife and child reappeared in front of his eyes.
He took off the vest he was wearing inside and wrapped it around his waist.
Xiao Xingzhou did not go back to the hotel where he was temporarily staying, but went to the gate of the most dilapidated courtyard in the town.
In the half-closed courtyard door, there was a clanging knocking sound, and the heat wave inside the room was higher than the temperature outside.
"Squeak ~ ah!"
Xiao Xingzhou pushed the door directly and walked in. The heat wave in the courtyard twisted into one piece in the air.
The shirtless old man who strikes the iron, the muscles on his body are stretched, and the hammer he swings is powerful and rhythmic.
"Ding~ding~dang~dang..."
"呲~"
A machete in its infancy stirred up the water in the pool to tumbling, emitting bursts of white smoke.
"Big man, how are you doing?"
The old man who was called a big man fell to the ground with the iron clip in his hand. No one has called him a big man for many years.
The big man didn't dare to turn around to see who it was, for he was afraid it was just another dream.
That person has been away for many years, and there is no news.
"Big man, it's me!
Xiao~Xing~Zhou! "
The big man with red eyes turned around and attacked the so-called Xiao Xingzhou in the courtyard in the posture of a tiger descending a mountain.
The two fought each other under the scorching sun. You come and go, and no one keeps a hand.
The big man was knocked to the ground with a punch, and the floor of his back didn't make him jump.
"Haha, after forty years, you finally showed up!
I have been with Wan'er for forty years, and I have been with her longer than you.
You are a heartless man, you should have gone to **** long ago. "
The big man who was the same age as Xiao Xingzhou burst into tears. When Wan'er died in front of them, he was never so sad.
At that time, he only thought of revenge, but this guy retreated into seclusion, and he couldn't even find a ghost.
Not even once did he come to worship Wan'er, the beautiful woman who sacrificed her life for him.
Why did he let go, otherwise Wan'er would not have died.
Xiao Xingzhou didn't say a word, the rival in front of him was his and Wan'er's best friend.
Used to be a high-spirited man who fell in love with someone who shouldn't be loved.
Now he is alone, staying here for more than 40 years and never leaving, this feeling is far more important than him.
But no matter how deep the love is, he will never give up his wife.
"Damn old man, I didn't expect you to grow old one day, it's a pity that Wan'er can't let Wan'er see your ugly appearance.
Otherwise, she will definitely not choose you, a wimp.
Where is your good son?
What, he doesn't want you either?
…”
The meanness in the big man's words became more and more explicit, Xiao Xingzhou let him speak without replying a word, just sat in the yard silently.
The big man jumped up suddenly and yelled.
"Damn old man, you won't be hit by me!
Something really happened to your good son, or did he go to see Wan'er?
Who did it?
I am going to pick out his eight generations of ancestors! "
Although the big guy is dissatisfied with Xiao Xingzhou a lot, he still loves Ning Wanyu's son very much.
For a time he treated him like his own son and loved him. If Xiao Xingzhou hadn't secretly taken the child away, he would have grown up with Xiao Yuanhang all the time.
Xiao Xingzhou shook his head and said nothing, saying anything now is superfluous, his son is gone.
He didn't know the real cause of death, and he didn't have time to investigate it now.
"He is gone, he went away by accident, leaving behind his sixteen-year-old granddaughter, living alone with me, an old man.
Didn't even bring back even a handful of ashes! "
The big man was so angry that he punched Xiao Xingzhou fiercely and cursed angrily.
"You worthless old man, you don't even know how your son died.
Is this how you treat that child? "
Xiao Xingzhou, who had received a punch from the big man, let him vent his anger and said calmly.
"Now is not the time to talk about this, I still have a little granddaughter to raise, so the investigation and revenge can only be postponed.
What are your plans, I can't believe you didn't notice the weather anomalies!
Don't plan to go back and have a look.
I came this time to bring Wan'er back, and I settled in a small mountain village in Sichuan Province. "
Xiao Xingzhou stopped talking to the big guy, and went straight into the house to familiarize himself with the knives he made.
Machetes, axes, kitchen knives…
Xiao Xingzhou picks and chooses, but he is not very satisfied.
He doesn't trust people who are good at weapons, so they make these useless gadgets.
Coax ghosts!
Xiao Xingzhou walked into the tidy bedroom, searched around the room, and finally fixed his eyes on the bed.
A large iron box, 80 centimeters long and 60 centimeters high.
He knelt down and pulled out the iron box directly. The big man who followed him in quit, and stepped forward to hold down that hand.
"You can choose the things outside, but the things here can't be moved, it's too dangerous to show up."
Xiao Yuezhou lightly pushed the big guy away with a palm, and laughed.
"Go and see the outside, let's talk about what it has become!
You've been in this backwater town for too long, it's time to move! "
The big man was amazed at Xiao Xingzhou's skill. He knew in his heart that the old man hadn't tried his best during the fight just now.
There are three layers in the box. The first layer is an ax with a cold blade shining in one piece.
The head of the ax is black all over, with a sharp blade on the back of the axe, and a bracelet on the 50 cm long handle.
Xiao Xingzhou weighed it in his hand. The ax weighed fifty catties. He tore off a hair and threw it to the ax blade. The hair broke when touched.
"Okay, big guy! The workmanship remains the same as before!"
The second layer is nunchucks, and the third layer is a pair of short swords, both of which are black.
Xiao Xingzhou didn't test the sharpness one by one. With the effect of the first ax, the other two are not bad.
After covering the box, Xiao Xingzhou walked out when he picked it up, but the big man blocked the door.
"Damn old man, you are too greedy, at least leave it to me.
It took me five years to make these three things, you can't take them all away! "
Xiao Xingzhou contemptuously looked up from the bottom, looked at the big man, and said.
"As a big guy like you, do you think it's suitable?"
The big man was about to argue with a stalk of his neck, but Xiao Xingzhou dragged him into the room, pushed him to the edge of the bed and sat down, speaking sternly.
“The weather has changed abnormally this year, and there will definitely be a severe drought…”
Xiao Xingzhou told the big guy what he saw and heard all the way to Hunan Province, and the abnormalities he found, hoping to attract his attention.
"Is it really as serious as you say?"
Although the big man didn't believe what the old man said, he had already admitted it in his heart.
Because he didn't need to travel so far to lie to himself, although he noticed something unusual, he didn't pay much attention to it.
It seems that he has to go back to his family. He hasn't appeared in so many years. I don't know how many people still remember him.
