Chapter 531
"Okay, everyone, clean up the battlefield and go back."
Liu Zhuangyong inserted the long sword in his hand under the ground, chuckled and gave instructions to everyone.
"General, won't you go back with us...?"
A group of soldiers gathered around and asked with puzzled expressions.
"No..."
"The war is over, my mission is over, it's time to go..."
After Liu Zhuangyong left something unclear to everyone, he turned around and looked at Ning Yechen.
"Lord Demon Lord, if my guess is correct, you are here to take me away, right?"
Before Ning Yechen could speak, Liu Zhuangyong smiled with relief and asked proactively.
"Well, someone asked me to take you there."
Ning Yechen replied.
It seemed that the other party knew the purpose of his visit without him having to say anything.
"Then it'll be hard work."
Liu Zhuangyong didn't say much and accepted it as calmly as Li Qingfan.
It seems that he already knew that such a day would come.
Ning Yechen didn't waste any time. He raised his hand lightly and lifted Liu Zhuangyong into the air out of thin air.
"General! General...!"
"Will you come back?"
A group of soldiers reluctantly stepped forward and called.
After this separation, we may never see each other again...
"Go back, there's no need to send me off."
"I will come back to you if I have a chance in the future."
Liu Zhuangyong waved his hand and said with a smile.
"Yes! We are waiting for you to come back!"
"As promised, when the war is over, you will lead us to make a lot of money!"
"You can't break your promise!"
Everyone couldn't help but their eyes were red and wet.
Liu Zhuangyong has led them through life and death for more than ten years, and he often eats and lives with them. He rewards everyone with good things without hesitation. He is definitely the best general in everyone's eyes.
Liu Zhuangyong smiled and nodded, turned back to Ning Yechen and said:
"Excuse me, Lord Demon Lord, let's go!"
Under the reluctant gaze of all the soldiers, Ning Yechen, Liu Zhuangyong and others instantly turned into a divine rainbow and disappeared in the distant sky.
Everyone was left standing there, looking up and watching...
…
In the southern part of the human world, somewhere on Cangshan Mountain
As the sun sets, the sky and mountain ridges are dyed red.
An old man with pale face and white hair, and a wrinkled face, leaning on a cane and with a hunched body, stood alone on the edge of the cliff, quietly looking at the sunset in the distance.
The turbid and dim blue eyes are no longer as clear and bright as before, as if if you close your eyes the next moment, you will never be able to open them again.
He knew that this was a sign that he was coming to the end of his life.
He felt particularly calm at this moment, and memories of the past passed through his mind one by one like a tide.
He has been an abandoned baby in the village at the foot of the mountain since he was a child. No one knows who abandoned him.
When discovered, only the infant was left crying at the gate of the village.
There was only a note named Wang Cannian left in his infancy.
A kind-hearted family took him in and raised him.
Like other children, he slowly grew up in the long river of time and experienced a process that everyone must go through.
Study, work, start a family, raise your own children, until old age...
In this process, he witnessed his young body gradually becoming stronger and stronger, and then slowly becoming thin and weak.
He personally saw off his adoptive parents who passed away at the end of their lives, and unfortunately said goodbye to his wife who passed away early due to illness.
Alone and little by little, he raised his child like he was when he was young.
And his children are now married and established like him, and they have begun to take care of him just as he took care of his adoptive parents in the past.
The life process of mortals is so similar to reincarnation...
Now that he was about to step into the rotten wood, he was filled with emotions and could not help but have a deep understanding of life.
For some reason, ever since he could remember, he had always paid attention to the life and death of the people around him.
I have seen newborn babies being born, and I have also witnessed death coming before me.
I feel the gradual disappearance of my life as time goes by all the time.
He didn't know why he cared so much about life and death, as if he was born specifically to experience the cycle of life and death...
In this life, he did not have the worldly desires and lofty ambitions of ordinary people. Instead, whenever he had time, he would climb mountains and look into the distance, look at nature, and feel the passage of time and the accompanying changes.
He has been coming here for almost decades and looking into the distance. Time has made the scenery of the woods under his feet more vivid and full of vitality, but it has carved the traces of aging on his face called time.
From walking as fast as flying when climbing up the mountain, to walking hobblingly like a dead tree.
As time goes by, the only thing that remains unchanged is the setting sun in the sky.
Clearly feeling that his time limit was approaching, Wang Cannian felt no fear or unwillingness, nor regrets.
Some are just the mission is about to be completed, and the deep understanding of the passing of life, and the heart is full of relief.
Plants and trees can live for thousands of years. They are full of life in the spring, but wither and wither in the autumn. This cycle repeats itself in the four seasons.
However, the lifespan of a mortal is only a hundred years at most. The time limit is approaching, and the spirit of youth is no longer there. The body is withering like a dead tree, but it cannot be reborn in the spring...
Looking at one person alone, life is short and only a hundred years, how valuable and lamentable it is.
This hundred years may be short, but it has experienced a hundred seasons, the sun and the moon are reversed. It may be long, but looking back, it seems like yesterday...
Everything in the past is vivid in my mind.
But if we look down from the whole world, aren't people also rotating with the sun and the moon, and the seasons changing?
Life is coming to an end, returning to dust, babies crying and falling to the ground, welcoming a new life, isn't this also a new cycle of reincarnation.
This is the order of life in the world, and so is the true meaning of life.
Now he is about to reach the end of his life, and his offspring has taken his place and entered a new cycle of life...
The afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on Wang Cangnian's hunched body, and the afterglow of life will also disappear with the arrival of night.
Wang Cangnian slowly withdrew his gaze from the setting sun in front of him, turned around and looked at Ning Yechen who had been standing behind him without knowing when.
Seeing Ning Yechen suddenly appear, Wang Cangnian was not at all upset, but just smiled with relief:
"You are here, I have been waiting for a long time."
With the experience of Li Qingfan and Liu Zhuangyong, Ning Yechen no longer felt strange that the other party seemed to have known he would come.
Just looking at the old man in front of him who was about to die and had a vicissitudes of life, he did not expect that this person was actually the last person that Wumingxian asked him to find.
Wang Cangnian narrowed his eyes, and finally looked up at the setting sun, then turned his head and smiled happily at Ning Yechen:
"The mission is accomplished, and it's time for me to go back..."
"Thank you..."
