Divine Light Warrior

Chapter 831 Respectable Old Man

This is a respectable old man, and fate is too cruel to him. His beloved son died at the foot of the Great Wall while building it, and he has been separated from his father forever, with no return date. Endless thoughts surged into his heart like a tide, tormenting the poor old man day after day, making him physically and mentally exhausted and depressed. Every day and night, he was immersed in the deep nostalgia for his son, unable to extricate himself.

One day, when the old man accidentally held Li Kaiyang's hand, he suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of intimacy. It seemed that at that moment, he truly felt the joy of his son's return. However, reality is ruthless after all, and he finally realized that the person in front of him was not the child he had been thinking about day and night. Despite this, Li Kaiyang and others still tried their best to comfort the old man and try to let him regain the warm feeling of having his son's company.

In the face of everyone's kindness, the old man showed extraordinary perseverance. He firmly stated that he was fully capable of living on his own and could deal with all difficulties independently. Even daily labor, which seemed simple but was actually difficult, he could easily do it - he was seen carrying a hoe, walking steadily towards his own corn field, and then skillfully and accurately removing all the weeds around the seedlings.

People who saw this scene were all shocked. You know, this old man is blind! But even so, he was able to complete the weeding work so perfectly without damaging a single seedling. So, someone couldn't help but ask curiously: "How did you do it? Why can you remove these weeds so cleanly with your eyes closed?"

The old man who had experienced many hardships seemed unwilling to explain to them. He just buried his head in the work at hand and kept urging others to leave as soon as possible. It seemed that the long-term loneliness had become a part of his life. Under such circumstances, any form of interpersonal communication could not bring him a moment of peace. So he closed himself in an extremely lonely situation, thinking only of his son who had gone far away, and completely forgot that there were more important people around him than his beloved son. These old people were all his old friends for many years, and they were also his life-long friends. However, fate played a trick on them. They all suffered the same misfortune - the children went to build the Great Wall and disappeared without a trace, never to return. They should have comforted and supported each other, but the old man had lost this state of mind at this moment. He was only immersed in his own world of thoughts and refused to communicate with others. This feeling was like a lonely lighthouse standing proudly in the depths of the vast ocean. And that admirable back is destined to endure this loneliness forever.

The most painful thing in life is to lose a beloved child when one is old. Li Taiyang was deeply touched by this. Whenever he saw the lonely old man, he seemed to see thousands of elderly people in the world. In this village, many elderly people are alone and depend on each other. There are only a few young and strong people among them, but most of them are disabled, which is really pitiful. It is simply a fantasy to ask them to build the magnificent Great Wall. Some have disabled legs and walk with a limp; some have incomplete hands and find it difficult to complete normal work; and some have hunched backs and cannot bear heavy loads. Because of this, these young people have survived and become the hope of the village's future.

When the elders in the village passed away one after another, a series of matters such as handling the funeral, digging graves and burying the dead naturally fell on the shoulders of these young people. There is no doubt that only they are capable of this important task. Now, they have become the backbone of the entire village and are respected and trusted by everyone. Many villagers even regard them as their own sons and adopt them as their adopted sons. As a result, in a short period of time, these children have suddenly owned more than a dozen families, just like the only child in each family.

Li Kaiyang thought to himself: This old man obviously doesn't want us to bother him, so let's not bother him anymore! So, he carefully left the silver with the old man. While the old man was unaware, Kaiyang quietly returned to the old man's house and placed the silver steadily on the shabby wooden table that bore the traces of time.

Before leaving, the kind-hearted Kaiyang also sent some silver to many lonely and helpless old people. Although the amount of silver he brought was limited, it was enough to distribute equally to these poor old people. At this moment, Li Kaiyang had no intention of keeping the silver in his heart, because he deeply understood that the silver was not of much use to him; however, once given to these elderly people, it could become a precious fuel to prolong the fire of life, giving the elderly a chance to continue to pursue the splendor and glory of their own future.

Li Taiyang didn't want to argue with anyone at all. When he passed those precious words to this group of old people, the rest of the old people were all grateful and thanked him profusely. However, only the old man he brought back directly behaved a little differently, and didn't seem to be affected much. At this moment, all the old people gathered around them and surrounded them tightly, showing their reluctance to leave, as if they were afraid that they would leave. But for Li Kaiyang, there was no development prospect here. Staying here would only waste time and might even cause trouble. So, after careful consideration, he made up his mind to leave here. After all, instead of doing nothing here, it would be better to go to the train station to find a job and help dry things. Although it seems ordinary, it is actually a vital and indispensable job!

After Li Kaiyang and others left, the girl still chose to go to the capital of the Qin Dynasty with them. Everyone boarded the carriage and set off again. Along the way, Xiaolan sang with great interest, because the scenery along the way was so beautiful and picturesque that she felt relaxed and happy. Such a beautiful scenery made her feel extremely happy, as if the haze that had been accumulated in her heart for a long time had been swept away, and she had never felt so happy as at this moment.

When the huge vehicle passed a mountain, something strange happened! Suddenly, there were bursts of sharp whistles from all directions. The driver turned his head suddenly, with a panicked look on his face, and shouted to the people in the car: "It's not good, gentlemen! There seem to be bandits ahead, and they obviously want to intercept us. What should we do? We have to find a safe place to hide temporarily, otherwise if we are robbed by these bandits, it will be a loss!"

Encountering bandits is commonplace for Li Kaiyang. They lived with pirates on the sea for a period of time on the island and penetrated their inner circle. They always maintained a good relationship. Throughout their lives, they encountered too many things such as rice and diseases. So when such things happened again by chance, he didn't feel anxious. He just hoped that people would slow down and there would be no problem after a long time.

The carriage slowly stopped beside a towering tree, while the two carriages behind it were tightly pressed together, as if forming a solid line of defense. Xiaolan heard that there might be bandits ahead, and she instantly became excited. She widened her eyes and shouted at the top of her voice: "Where are the bandits? Where are the bandits? I want to find them! I want to see who is more powerful!" After that, she waved her fists, looking eager to try.

Then, Xiaolan turned her gaze to Li Kaiyang and asked provocatively, "Li Kaiyang, where is your light energy? Are you afraid of these little bandits? If they dare to come, we will kill them one by one!"

In fact, Li Kaiyang himself was not afraid of these bandits, but Xiaolan's arrogant attitude really made him feel helpless. After all, if Xiaolan didn't shout loudly, perhaps the bandits would not be able to detect their presence at all. But now that Xiaolan was shouting like this, she undoubtedly exposed her position, and I'm afraid the bandits would soon come after hearing the noise. Thinking of this, Li Kaiyang couldn't help but frown.

At the same time, the driver couldn't help but feel angry after hearing Xiaolan's shouting. He glared at Xiaolan and said unhappily: "You little girl, you are really looking for trouble! Now you have attracted all the bandits!"

The result was as expected! Just as everyone said, not long after, the vicious bandits came rushing towards the sound. They seemed to have a special preference for women, especially after hearing such a soft, charming, and melodious female voice, they could not suppress their inner restlessness and desire. After all, for these bandits, capturing beautiful girls to satisfy their selfish desires was a common thing.

It is conceivable that when such a tender and tender cry reached their ears, how could the bandits remain indifferent? They must have been eager to rush forward to see the beauty and take her for themselves! Not to mention that these bandits are usually greedy for money, but once they meet the beauty of their dreams, even money becomes unimportant. So, in a short moment, dozens of bandits quickly surrounded the carriage like hungry tigers.

However, facing the aggressive bandits, Li Kaiyang showed no fear. The reason was that he held a powerful lightsaber. If he really fought with such a villain, he would surely win easily with his strength and make the opponent lose miserably. Although the girl and her friends were sitting safely in the middle of the carriage and their identities had not been exposed, even if they could not be chased or the tracking signal was turned off with their mobile phones, it was not enough to prove anything. After all, in most cases, children are always inseparable from adults, and their lives are free and carefree.

After the bandits surrounded him, they saw a burly man with a thick black hair on his chest, with broad and strong arms exposed, running towards him in a hurry with big strides, and shouting at the top of his voice: "This tree was planted by me, and this road was also opened by me! If you want to pass through here, you must leave money to buy your way! You guys are really bold, daring to run here without permission, and don't even say hello to me! Do you want to monopolize everything and take all the achievements for yourself? Humph, there are no people in this world as ignorant as you! Therefore, today I must let you know how powerful I am and take you to that boundless place to have a good taste of suffering! If you don't believe me, just come and try!"

What Li Kaiyang is most worried about deep in his heart is the conflict with this group of people. In fact, if you think about it carefully, this is really unnecessary. After all, facing this gang of bandits, you only need to stay away from them, and there is no need to argue about right and wrong, or argue about the pros and cons. Looking back on the past, when he was on the pirate ship, he handled it in the same way. After all, who can control these lawless people like God? If they make a mistake, they may make a mistake to the end; and if they act properly, they may be able to stay right for the rest of their lives. However, if you always indulge and tolerate like this, and keep tossing and turning, to be honest, you may be able to barely cope with it at the moment, but I am afraid that it will cause a series of unpredictable problems in the future...

Although Li Kaiyang was afraid, he still plucked up the courage to ask: "What do you want? Just say it! Stop bluffing and mystifying! We really can't stand your intimidation. If you have the guts, show us your true ability, so that everyone can understand your current academic level. If one day, the school suddenly sees all the truth, then they will naturally know how to deal with this matter. As for those who have ulterior motives, just expose their ugly faces to the public, and don't worry about anything else. As the saying goes, 'a person of integrity is not afraid of his own shadow', as long as there is no flaw in oneself, why worry about others' malicious slander? However, some people are blinded by greed and are blinded by the petty gains in front of them. They don't care about long-term interests at all, and in the end they can only end up with nothing. Those things that are difficult to keep will eventually disappear like a passing cloud."

I feel tired and difficult working for anyone, but I have to persist. This is what life forces me to do. Who doesn't want a happy and comfortable life? I don't let you teach the main subjects, so why are you so nervous? Everything goes with the flow, nothing will happen!
