The smile on Chen Qiaoyu's face slowly faded as she heard Zhi Ge's words. She raised her hand into the air.
Then, this hand gently landed on Zhi Ge's head and rubbed it lovingly.
"You…"
"Sigh ~"
He seemed to want to say something, but in the end, it turned into a sigh.
Chen Qiaoyun's gaze turned to a corner of the living room. There was a photo hanging there.
It was a photo of a man wearing a combat uniform, holding an exaggeratedly large saber in his hand, standing on the city wall in an awe-inspiring manner!
"Do you know who he is?" Chen Qiaoyun's words were filled with tenderness.
"Yes, Grandfather." Zhi Ge smiled.
However, when Chen Qiaoyun heard this, she couldn't help but be stunned. Then, she gently patted Zhi Ge's shoulder.
"You child, you're not decent!"
After saying that, he let out a long sigh.
"Aiya, I wish he was your grandfather. Unfortunately, at that time, he only had eyes for killing all demon beasts.”
"Do you want to hear his story?"
Chen Qiaoyun looked at Zhi Ge with a gentle gaze.
Zhi Ge really wanted to say that he wasn't interested! However, the words that came out of his mouth became,
"Alright ~"
Although he was unwilling, he couldn't refuse Chen Qiaoyun's request.
"That was when I was young…"
As Chen Qiaoyun's words spread, Zhi Ge was repeatedly brought back to many years ago.
At that time, Chen Qiaoyun was still serving in Xuanwu City at the border thousands of miles away. Every day, they had to face an endless stream of demon beasts attacking the city walls!
These guys were vicious, brutal, and bloodthirsty. Life was meaningless to them!
They were not afraid of death, just like terrorists who launched suicide attacks.
In their eyes, humans were food, toys, and the most worthless things!
Until now, humans had not been able to figure out where the demonic beasts came from. They did not know how they appeared. They could only rely on the high and sturdy city walls to persevere.
Relying on the thickness of the city walls, relying on the sharpness of the soul weapons, relying on the army formed by countless ordinary people, relying on the defense made of flesh and blood, humans could survive until now.
That year, after the high-spirited Chen Qiaoyun ended her life in the soul weapon school, she resolutely headed to Xuanwu City, the northernmost part of the country.
This was the most heavily affected area of the demon beast attack, the most difficult defense point of the country. Almost every moment, there were soldiers bravely dying here.
Chen Qiaoyun, who had just graduated that year, was filled with ambition and dreams.
She hoped to rely on her talent and strength to turn the tide of the battle!
However, reality had given Chen Qiaoyun a hard slap in the face!
Chen Qiaoyun, who had been on the battlefield for the first time, was already in danger. Many times, she had almost died under the attacks of demon beasts.
At that time, the man who pulled her back from the gates of hell time and time again was the man in the photo, Chen Qiaoyun's captain at that time…Tang Jingshan!
This man had single-handedly pulled Chen Qiaoyun back from the gates of hell and made her understand what a battlefield was!
As Chen Qiaoyun spoke, tears gradually welled up in her eyes.
Zhi Ge picked up a tissue from the table and gently handed it to Chen Qiaoyu.
Chen Qiaoyun wiped away her tears and continued her story.
That year, for some unknown reason, the attacks of the demonic beasts were exceptionally ferocious. The killing between the two sides became even more bloody.
Almost every day, other than the necessary rest and supplies, everyone was fighting. Explosions, booms, shouts, and howls never stopped!
Such a battle would make people numb and extremely tired.
Under the impact of another demon beast tide, Chen Qiaoyun, who was physically and mentally exhausted, was distracted and sent flying by a Velvet Armored Coiled Python that suddenly popped out from the ground.
At that time, Chen Qiaoyun had already seen the dense rows of sharp teeth in the python demon's mouth.
Chen Qiaoyun felt that she was doomed and that she could finally be freed, but someone had saved her at that moment!
It was the person in the photo, his captain, Tang Jingshan!
Up until now, Chen Qiaoyun could still remember the scene of Tang Jingshan sending her flying while he brandished his combat weapon and fought the S-class python demon.
At the end of that battle, the demonic beast tide retreated!
Her soul weapon was severely damaged in that battle and could no longer be used on the battlefield.
As for Tang Jingshan…He did not return!
Chen Qiaoyun remembered that when Tang Jingshan slashed into the python demon's abdomen, a wolf demon suddenly appeared from the side and bit down on Tang Jingshan's body…
" Ah Zhi, Grandma really hopes that one day, I'll be able to find that python demon and take back the river in Jingshan…"
At this point, Chen Qiaoyu's face was completely soaked in tears. At this moment, she felt as if she had returned to that time, the time when she was bathed in blood with her teammates.
Seeing his grandmother like this, Zhi Ge didn't say anything. He quietly got up and walked towards his room.
Now, what Grandma needed was not him, but time…
He quietly returned to his room and took out a book from his thick backpack that he had not flipped through.
History of Soul Weapons
This book described some of the situations, famous people, and forces in the world of soul weapon users.
In the past, Zhi Ge would never flip through this book because it didn't take the test, and at the same time, it was also because Zhi Ge had no interest in them at all.
But after today, things would be different…
(Time to update ~)
