C20

21. I swear it.

"Tong Tong!"

"Tong Tong!"

The continuous knocking on the door woke a doctor up. He opened his eyes and felt that it was very astringent. He then let out a loud curse, "Who are you, you're not letting anyone sleep in the middle of the night?" As he got up, he pulled a coat over his shoulders and walked to the door to open it.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw a young man who was carrying an old man, bowing as he prepared to leave.

The teenager seemed to have heard the door open. He quickly turned around to look at the doctor and said, "Doctor, quickly look for my grandfather!"

The doctor looked at the teenager and asked snappily, "What happened to your grandfather?"

The youth wiped the sweat off his forehead and said, "He's sick. Quickly, take a look at him."

On the dark street, the doctor observed carefully. He couldn't see everything clearly, so he waved his hand and said, "Carry him in. It's too dark outside so I can't see him."

When the youth heard this, he was extremely happy. "Thank you, Doctor."

That doctor then turned around and asked while walking, "What's your grandfather's name? What's your name?"

The youth slowly carried the old man into the shop and said, "My name is Chu Ming, my grandfather is Lu Zeng."

"Oh." That doctor seemed to be extremely disdainful. He walked inside and picked up a box. He said, "Help your grandfather to the bed."

Chu Ming didn't dare to go back on his words and followed along with it.

He looked at the old man covered in blood and was shocked. He was not able to see clearly because of the dark, but because of the light, he found out that the old man's abdomen was punctured, and there were many injuries on his body. He quickly reached out and touched the old man's veins, then turned his head and shouted angrily: "Brat, you brought a dead person for me to treat? You can't harm me! "

When Chu Ming heard this, he froze for a moment. In fact, before this, he went to look for the three coaches. All of them said the same thing to him after they connected their meridians and chased him out. Thinking of this, Chu Ming's tears continued to fall.

When the doctor saw this situation, he angrily retorted once again, "Brat, what are you planning to do? You were discovered by a neighbor and you still think that I've died from a medical treatment. Hurry up and leave with this corpse!"

Chu Ming was still motionless. He already did not know what else he could do. He could not imagine what his life would be like without Lu Zeng. He thought about how familiar he was with Lu Zeng, as if it had just happened.

The middle-aged man saw that Chu Ming was still motionless and had a blank look on his face. Afraid that he would lose his mind, he went into the room and called for a tall middle-aged man, who grabbed Chu Ming and threw him out, and then returned and threw Lu Zeng out as well. Finally, he clapped and said: "Stinking brat, scram to the side, don't disturb grandpa's sleep, otherwise I'll kill you!"

Chu Ming was stunned and ignored him. He picked up Lu Zeng, walked a few steps forward, and then kneeled down. He placed Lu Zeng in front of him and cried, "Grandfather, let's not play anymore okay? Wake up, I beg of you, I won't quarrel with you anymore. Whatever you say, I'll do it. If you want to teach me martial arts, I'll do it properly. Please wake up, I can't do without you tomorrow. Tomorrow... "Tomorrow ?" As he finished speaking, his voice was hoarse and he could not utter any words. In the end, he could not even utter a single word.

When the two people responsible for protecting Chu Ming saw this, they shook their heads. They wanted to go out and comfort Chu Ming right now, but if they didn't let Chu Ming let it out, he might lose his mind and go insane.

Thus, he could only rub his eyes and continued to carry Lu Ceng out of the city. That night, he had walked countless miles since his illness had just started, perhaps because he was too sad or because he had forgotten his fatigue, so he kept on walking and didn't even know where he was going. Right now, Chu Ming was like a walking corpse.

It was a long night.

The clouds slowly dispersed and a cool breeze blew past, stirring up countless dust on the ground. The cold moon in the sky was like a blade, as if it was used to stab at someone who was hurt.

The moonlight was cold as it sprinkled onto Chu Ming's body, creating a long slanted shadow. No matter how one looked at it, it didn't look like a human at all.

The darkness would eventually dissipate.

The next day, the morning sun shone onto Chu Ming's face. Sweat had soaked every part of his skin, so he did not have any extra hands to wipe it off. He could only use his legs to move. He had no goal, he just wanted to leave this place.

Unknowingly, Chu Ming had walked countless miles to the temple. He still remembered every word he had asked Lu Zeng and Chengfeng in the temple, but now, he was the only one left with a cold corpse facing Lu Zeng.

Chu Ming was tired, he was very tired, he immediately fell into a deep sleep, not caring about anything else, he felt that this must be a dream, if he were to wake up from it, Lu Zeng would be by his side, pulling his ear and calling him a lazy bug.

He slept through the night.

He looked at Lu Zeng's corpse not far away and shook his head. Suddenly, he raised his head and looked up at the sky, only to see a cold sky, a cold moon, hanging high in the sky. It was just like last night, heartbreaking. For a moment, he was in a daze.

When he came back to his senses, he realized that there were a lot of bugs on Lu Zeng's corpse. He hurriedly went forward to remove them one by one.

When the two disciples who were secretly protecting Chu Ming saw him, they felt that it was time for them to leave. Thus, they jumped down from the beam, and one of the young men in green said: "Little brother, Old Master Lu has already gone. You can just bury him in the ground and let him rest."

The other person also echoed, "That's right. No matter what, you have to bury this old man."

Chu Ming threw away the bug in his hand and turned around to look at the two of them. He nodded and said, "Can you help dig a hole? I want to bury grandpa in this temple."

The youth in cyan said, "Isn't it a bit inappropriate to bury them in this temple?"

The other person reached out his hand to stop him, "It's fine. Just listen to little brother and bury this."

Chu Ming nodded, then turned around to help Lu Zeng drive away the bugs.

The other two began digging.

After about an hour, the tunnel was finished. Chu Ming looked at Lu Tengsheng carefully, then lifted his hand and solemnly said, "I, Chu Ming, swear that no matter how many difficulties await me in the future, I will break them one by one. Within ten years, I will surpass Chengfeng and those people who killed my grandfather and take revenge for him.

Seeing Chu Ming being so fierce at such a young age, the two people at the side couldn't help but shiver and say, "Little brother, you don't have to do this. Old Master Lu also doesn't want you to take risks for his sake."

I know Uncle Ping sent you to protect me, but there's no need. From now on, I have to rely on myself, I want to stand out, and I want my grandfather in the underworld to see how I will hang my name on the top of that divine wall! " His words were domineering.

He never thought that this child would be so ambitious, and that the king's grandeur he displayed just now was also very admirable. However, because of Bian Jin's orders, they absolutely could not go back, but they also did not want to offend this child. The two of them looked at each other and decided to protect him from the shadows.

After making this decision, the two of them said: "Since little brother has great ambitions, we can't say anything more. Then we will bid our farewells and hope little brother will take care. If you have any inconvenience, come and find us at the Hall of Relief."

Chu Ming nodded and said, "I hope that you two elder brothers can help me apologize to uncle Ping. Last night, I was delirious, so please forgive me."

The two of them nodded, turned around, and walked out. After he went out, he hid and secretly protected her.

After Chu Ming buried Lu Zeng, he found a piece of wood from the side and stuck it in front of the grave. Then, he bit his own hand and used his blood to write on it: "Lu Zeng's Tomb, grandson Chu Mingli."

He sighed and knelt in front of the grave. He kowtowed three times and said: "Grandpa, I think I should leave you tomorrow. I will come back to see you once I'm done. Please bless me." After kowtowing three more times, he stood up, turned around three times, and walked out of the run-down temple.
