In the Blade

After saying goodbye to Yu Laoer, Du Chengfeng set off to return to Yizhou.

This time, he knew the way, after all, he had the map from Songzhou, and Liu Bolun had pointed out the route before - if there must be something that slowed down the speed, it was probably the warhorse he was riding now.

His current speed of running at full speed was much faster than this warhorse. However, considering not to scare passers-by, he chose to ride back on horseback.

This would not scare his own people, after all, running faster than a warhorse, which was a bit too scary.

"Anyway, I'm back!"

Looking at the tall gate of Yizhou City, Du Chengfeng felt as if he was in another world for a while.

When he stepped out of the gate, he still had the mind of fighting for his life, thinking that no matter what, he had to fight for a future for himself and even for his relatives and friends - but now, he can proudly say that he finally did it.

He finally did it, and finally became a powerful man who was unrivaled in the world. Even the Southern Chen Taizu was defeated by him, and even the Chu survivors were defeated by him... With such strength, he can finally tell his relatives and friends that everyone is safe and can live steadily.

Even if there is no need to fight, there is nothing in the world that can threaten them.

Liu Bolun will probably become a wine merchant, after all, he likes to make wine so much, and Carpenter Li can finally take a break and open a furniture store he likes. As for Xiao Cui, who has always been his enemy... Xiao Cui will probably grow more, after all, he has realized more things now.

The only one who is sorry is probably Old Man Yang. The old man's desire to follow the dragon may not be satisfied. But at least they can live in peace, just like other villagers, everyone can live a steady life.

As for Du Chengfeng himself, he plans to live in seclusion, build a small courtyard, and raise two or three cats and dogs... Of course, this may be seen as a lack of ambition by others, but he is a person without ambition. He just wants to live his life quietly. Of course, if possible, he can have a martial arts training ground, which is the happiest thing.

In the final analysis, Du Chengfeng has never had so many ambitions, and he can be satisfied easily.

As long as he can live his life well, he doesn't have so many extravagant demands.

Perhaps this is the difference between him and the nameless giant. The nameless giant was alone all his life, but he is not. He has friends, brothers, people who care about him, and people who can drink with him - even if that person's alcohol tolerance is actually very poor, but at least...

"... Hey?"

Looking at the white banners and lanterns on the street, Du Chengfeng couldn't help but be stunned.

"Who died? Did someone of great reputation in Yizhou City die?"

After thinking about it, Du Chengfeng decided to ask the merchants on the roadside. After all, if the whole city was in mourning, it was enough to show how much respect this person deserved.

But when he led his horse to a cloth shop, the answer given by the other party still made Du Chengfeng a little unbelievable.

"... Is it fake?"

Du Chengfeng forced a smile.

"How could Brother Li..."

"Don't ask me, it's the children at home who insisted on doing this."

The owner of the cloth shop also frowned. Obviously, the white cloth and circles placed outside the door had seriously affected his business.

But there was no way, the children at home had to do this, just because the child bought toys from the carpenter at a very cheap price.

Children's views on good and evil have always been simple. They will think well of whoever is good to them.

Even if it's just a wooden toy.

"... Eh?"

Du Chengfeng still didn't want to believe it.

"How is it possible? He was fine when I left. How could he suddenly die..."

"He hasn't been out for several days!"

Several young children gathered around, with tears on their faces.

"We all saw it. The man stabbed the pole into Lao Li's stomach... Then Lao Li died, and his body was taken away."

"...Huh?"

Even though the children said so, Du Chengfeng still didn't want to believe that this would really happen.

That Carpenter Li is a good person, even the best person he has met since he came to this world. The first small courtyard he built in this world was built by Carpenter Li, and he also troubled Carpenter Li a lot in the later things... This Carpenter Li is obviously the same as him, no, even more unambitious than him, after all, he still has a little desire to become stronger, and a little desire to get a body of courage, but Carpenter Li has always been a person who goes with the flow and has never thought of asking for more...

Such a master, such a good person who just wants to live... How could he die like this?

"It must be fake, it must be fake..."

Du Chengfeng hurriedly led the horse back to the old barracks. He was unwilling to believe that Carpenter Li would die just like that. Yes, this must be some kind of joke, some new joke. Everyone was teasing him. After all, he came back too late, so everyone was going to tease him and lie to him that someone was dead... Carpenter Li must not be dead yet. How could the old brother die just like that? He must be waiting for him to come over and scare him when the time comes...

"So where is the old brother now?"

Looking at Carpenter Li's wife and Carpenter Li's two children, Du Chengfeng pulled out a self-consciously sunny smile.

"I already know it. Don't scare me. He must be waiting for me to go to him for a drink, right?"

"He, he..."

Carpenter Li's wife and children just cried.

"Brother Du, go and see for yourself."

"What's there to see? He must still...eh?"

Du Chengfeng, who led the horse into the old barracks, was stunned.

In front of him, there was only a pipe with an open lid.

And Carpenter Li, the body with a piece missing from his chest.

"......Hey?"

Du Chengfeng felt dizzy.

When he woke up, he didn't know what time it was. Liu Bolun, Old Man Yang, Xiao Cui and even the villagers of Yangjiabao gathered at his bedside.

"My condolences."

Liu Bolun said this to him, which was also the common wish of the villagers.

The dead cannot be resurrected, they just hope that Du Chengfeng can survive this painful time.

But Du Chengfeng shook his head firmly.

"What do you mean by my condolences?"

At this moment, Du Chengfeng's face showed unprecedented firmness.

"Obviously no one is dead, what are you talking about these things?"
