Chapter 203 I just miss my granddaughter, I just go back to see her
cuckoo-
The seagulls called melodiously and loudly, spread their wings under the blue sky, and danced in the wind over the sea.
On the east coast of Nason Island, a large ship is docked.
"We captured a Taiping Dao member at sea, and another who resisted was shot dead. Do you want to go and take a look?"
On the deck, Zhang Wuling was looking at the sea. Xia He came over from behind and stood beside him.
"Not yet." Zhang Wuling said, "By the way, what about those three demon kings?"
Xia He leaned against the bulwark, her pink hair tied into a small braid hanging down in front of her chest, and the skin on her arms was as white as a seagull's wings.
"We launched missiles and hit them. Normally, they should be dead. However, considering that these three are old monsters, I can't guarantee it. But even if they don't die, they probably won't feel well."
Zhang Wuling smiled and said, "It's okay. We've made them suffer this time."
"But next time, I'm afraid they won't let us succeed so easily." Xia He said.
"So, we have to use the prisoners we captured this time to some extent."
"You want to use them?"
"Of course, otherwise why would we capture them? There has to be some profit to be made. Otherwise, it would be much easier to just kill them."
"That's right, you're full of bad intentions, and you won't give up until you've caused some trouble."
Zhang Wuling was immediately dissatisfied when he heard this. "What do you mean by bad water? Senior sister, you have misunderstood my image!"
"misunderstanding?"
Xia He raised the corner of her mouth, leaned forward, and said with a sweet breath, "What misunderstanding? I know you very well now. I have seen you in every detail..."
Why do I always feel that this statement is somewhat ambiguous?
"Ahem." Zhang Wuling changed the subject. "By the way, Senior Sister, how is King Nathan doing?"
Xia He said, "I heard that he's in a hurry to return to Nasen Island. The company has already made arrangements."
"By the way, don't look for Director Zhao right now. He's busy and may not have time to deal with you."
"Busy?" Zhang Wuling was curious. "What is he busy with?"
Xia He laughed and said, "What else could it be? With such a big incident on Nasen Island, how could other Inhuman organizations in the world not know about it? Director Zhao is already dealing with those people."
"That's right." Zhang Wuling nodded. "Then does Director Zhao have any instructions?"
"Nothing much, it's just that now that the matter is over, I want you to behave yourself and not cause any more trouble."
Zhang Wuling sighed, "Boss Zhao, he just loves to worry. What kind of trouble can I cause? Really."
Xia He just smiled slightly and didn't argue with Zhang Wuling about this matter.
After all, she knew very well that her junior sometimes had an inaccurate understanding of herself.
"By the way, Wang Ye and the others are all on board. We should set off soon."
"How much longer?"
"About half an hour."
Xia He noticed something and asked, "Are you waiting for someone?"
"Ah, waiting for an old man, but don't worry about him. We'll leave when the time comes and won't delay anything."
Xia He said, "Okay, I'll go in first. The prisoners are locked up in the first cabin downstairs. I've sent someone to watch over them."
"it is good."
Half an hour is not long. Zhang Wuling enjoyed the sea breeze for a long time, then looked at the time and found that it was almost time.
But there was still no sign of Li Muxuan, and it seemed that the other party did not want to return to his homeland.
Zhang Wuling had no regrets about this. Man proposes, God disposes. If the other party really stayed on this island for the rest of his life, it would be considered that he had escaped for a lifetime and made a choice.
Even if this choice seems a bit cowardly or even disappointing in the eyes of ordinary people.
Stretching lazily and glancing at the rolling sea, Zhang Wuling put his hands in his pockets, turned around and prepared to go back to the boat.
But just as he reached the middle of the deck, a figure emerged from the woods on the coast.
Zhang Wuling stopped and turned around. Seeing that it was Li Muxuan, he smiled slightly.
After getting on the boat, Li Muxuan saw Zhang Wuling waiting for him on the deck, and he couldn't help but turn his head away and snorted coldly.
"I was just worried about my granddaughter, so I went back to see her. Don't overthink it."
Zhang Wuling shrugged and said, "You don't have to explain. I didn't say anything."
"Humph!"
"By the way, where's your luggage?"
"What luggage? I'm alone and don't have any luggage."
"Okay, the ship is about to leave. I'll find you a room."
In the end, Li Muxuan chose to go back and face everything. After living on Nasen Island for half his life, he had to return to his hometown again.
Zhang Wuling didn't know what Li Muxuan's mood was at this moment, but he thought it must be somewhat complicated.
Perhaps when he went out to sea, he never thought that one day he would choose to come back.
What's more, the land of China is now completely different, with things and people no longer the same, and the world has undergone tremendous changes.
Few of the people from that time are still around.
My home back then was probably covered with weeds and yellow earth, which was a very sad and desolate place.
"Are you scared?"
On the way, Zhang Wuling, who was walking in front, suddenly asked.
Li Muxuan curled his lips and said, "Boy, do you think I'm someone you'd be afraid of?"
"I'm very curious," Zhang Wuling said. "You've been away for so many years. Have you ever missed home? I heard that you came from a good family and your parents treated you very well."
Li Muxuan opened his mouth to say something, but finally closed it and remained silent.
"I heard, just heard, that your father wanted to send you to the Trinity School, but in the end you chose Quan Xing. Your family must be very disappointed."
Li Muxuan snorted lightly: "My own path has nothing to do with others!"
Zhang Wuling ignored the other person's words and continued calmly, "Back then, when you chose to go to sea, you were basically cut off from your family. When you went to sea, your parents were still at home. Have you thought about them over the years?"
Bang!
Li Muxuan grabbed Zhang Wuling's collar, his eyes red as he said, "Boy, you keep provoking me, are you looking for death?"
Zhang Wuling still had his hands in his pockets, not panicking at all, and his expression remained calm.
"I asked the company to check your information, and naturally they also looked into your Li family's affairs."
"Your mother passed away the second year after you left for sea. Less than three years later, your father also passed away. The funeral was arranged by fellow tribesmen, and the two elders were buried together."
"But where the two elders were buried, there were three graves, close together. Two of the tombstones were engraved with their names, but the other one was very strange. There was no name or surname on it. It was actually a blank tombstone. No one knew who was buried inside..."
When he said this, Zhang Wuling could clearly feel that Li Muxuan's hands were shaking.
He seemed to want to hold on, but finally let go weakly.
Zhang Wuling stared at Li Muxuan. The other person's face twitched constantly, as if he was suppressing something, and his expression changed constantly.
He took out a folded piece of paper from his pocket and stuffed it into Li Muxuan's hand.
"This is where the two elders were buried. If you miss your granddaughter, you can still see her. But the person your father and his family missed was never seen until their death..."
"If you have time, go visit the two elders."
Zhang Wuling turned around and walked a few steps, opened a door, and said without turning back:
"Of course, you don't have to go. It's up to you."
