Chapter 131 The Third Story!

The old man knew that when Xiaopang missed him, he would cry and secretly wipe his tears.

When Tang Bandit misses him, he will mock, sneer, and scold fiercely.

The harsher you think, the harsher you scold.

This is a guy who never expresses his feelings easily. He looks cold-blooded, but is actually very cute.

Xiaopang can express his emotions unscrupulously, but as the eldest brother, he can't.

He needs to be mature, calm, cold, ruthless, and ruthless.

However, missing is just missing.

They are friends who talk about everything, family members who get along day and night, and father and son who are closer than blood relations.

Why doesn't he miss them?

After Tang Bandi finished venting his emotions, the old man glanced at Tang Bandit cautiously and said, "Are we okay?"

"There's something wrong." Bandit Tang stared at the old man fiercely and said, "If you can't give me a reasonable explanation, I'll let Xiaopang use the skull hammer to blow your dog's head off. I believe Xiaopang is very happy to do this."

"."

The old man glanced at Lu Zhiyong and said, "Go sit in your courtyard."

"Okay." Lu Zhiyong responded and led the way.

When they were about to leave, the mice and red bees that had just been in a "dead state" all came to life. They retreated in groups like a tide and disappeared in the vast mountains in an instant.

Tang Bandit was secretly frightened. How much financial resources and advanced technological capabilities would it take to raise such a mechanical army?

Such a big mountain and such a large formation may not be conquerable even if the empire dispatches a hundred thousand troops.

Even if we finally capture it, I'm afraid there will be countless casualties.

No wonder the royal family has always been afraid of the nine major families. If the other eight families have the financial and material resources of Gongshujia, the Phoenix royal family will have trouble sleeping and eating, right?

Thinking that he had offended the Shen family and the Qin family of the nine major families, Tang Bandit felt regretful and frightened.

If these giants are really determined to kill themselves, they really have no ability to resist.

He asked Fenghuang to come forward and invite Shen Qingping and Qin Jianyi to have a meal. They all drank and talked and settled the old grudges. He promised on the spot to forgive all their provocations and humiliations and not to take their faults to heart anymore.

Even if you can't be friends, there's no need to fight, right?

When he came to Lu Zhiyong's small courtyard, the old man said, "Give me the secret room, and we can talk about what's on our minds."

"Okay." Lu Zhiyong agreed readily.

Although he also wanted to know what his eldest brother wanted to talk to Bandits Tang, but his eldest brother didn't want him to listen, so he could only watch at the door.

The old man led Tang Bandit into the secret room with ease, and then closed and locked the heavy soundproof door. It seems that the two brothers usually chat here a lot.

The old man invited Bandit Tang to sit down and waited beside him in a very doggy manner, peeling fruit for him for a while, and pouring tea for him for a while.

Tang bandits would not eat the fruit he peeled, nor would he drink his tea. Just sitting there quietly, the attitude expressed is obvious.

If you can't give me an explanation, I will give you an explanation in a while.

The old man was helpless, sighed deeply, and said, "Actually, I also have my own unavoidable difficulties."

"Speak, I'm listening. I want to hear how desperate you are."

"Twenty years ago, I fell in love with a girl. She was the most beloved daughter of the emperor and the most honorable princess of the empire."

"."

This story is a bit familiar.

"She is so gentle and smart, and so elegant and generous. She is as high as the bright moon in the sky. And I am just an ordinary mechanic. I have nothing except my appearance. The distance between us is really Too far apart”

The old man glanced at Tang Bandit and said: "The royal family does not agree with the two of us being together, and they are trying every means to separate us, but no hardships or obstacles can extinguish the fire of love between us."

"I put the girl to sleep and made the girl's belly bigger. When the emperor found out, he was furious and wanted to cut me into pieces."

"In order not to implicate my beloved Princess and the unborn child in her belly, I could only hide my name and escape to that distant land alone. You already know what happened next."

Bandit Tang looked at the old man and asked, "Is this your last resort?"

"Yes." The old man nodded seriously and said, "Are you very touched? Do you feel a sense of pain and aggrievement? We fell in love with the princess, but are we wrong? No, love and What does age, country, gender, and identity matter?"

Bandit Tang got up and said blankly, "I'm leaving."

"Wait, wait." The old man pushed Bandit Tang back onto the sofa and said, "I have another story, and one more."

"speak."

The old man looked solemn, pondered for a moment, gritted his teeth and said: "You know, I was originally a mechanical genius from the Gongshu family. I became famous at a young age, attracted the attention of the industry, and was also the focus of the family's training. Everyone knows that if nothing happens, I will He is the next head of the Gongshu family."

"But, as expected, I had an accident. One day, I suddenly couldn't make any works, not even the most ordinary wooden bird. Make one, destroy one, make one, destroy One. The younger members of my family look down on me and call me a fool and a waste. Some people also question that all my previous works were plagiarized and I paid someone to do it for me."

"."

The story is also familiar.

"The elders in my family also beat me up and belittled me everywhere. They wanted to deprive me of my right to inherit the family head. What's even more hateful is the girl I like. We were childhood sweethearts and grew up together. She actually came to me and wanted to break off the engagement."

"Breaking off the engagement, what a heavy blow is this to a man? My pride, my dignity, and my expectations and dreams for the future were all shattered. I ran away, like a coward. Old land. I don’t dare to face everything on the new star, so I can only survive in an unfamiliar place.”

The old man covered his face and his voice began to choke.

Tang Bandi stared at the old man's head and said, "If there is no third story, I will leave."

"No, no, no, no," the old man held Tang Bandit's arm and said, "How can we leave? We finally met each other, and we have to have a meal together no matter what. Don't you like drinking? I have good wine here. Hundreds of years of blue and white flowers"

"No." Tang Bandi looked into the old man's eyes and said, "I still have to go back and cook for the little fat guy."

"I'll have someone pick up Little Fatty and let's all gather together. Doesn't Little Fatty like to eat meat? I'll have someone fetch a wild goat. Try the goats from Luban Mountain. They are all red-skinned and the meat is tender. Fat and plump, it’s a masterpiece.”

Tang Bandit shook his head and said: "No need. I will tell Xiaopang that you are still alive and well."

After saying that, Tang Bandit got up and left.

"Tang Bandit." The old man shouted.

Tang Bandit turned to look at the old man and said in a deep voice: "When I saw Lu Whispering, when she asked me if I knew the "useless heart", when she showed her operating skills and the mechanical knowledge you taught me, When there were a lot of similarities, I was filled with doubts, wondering if there might be any relationship between you."

"I took the initiative to approach again and again, and tried again and again, even looking for opportunities to follow. I thought, if you are in Xinxing, I must find you. Because you are... Xiaopang and I's family, ours Dearest relative"

"We don't know what happened to you, but I think that no matter what happens, we will accompany you to bear it, face it, and solve it."

"I even thought about whether you had offended a public loser, stolen someone else's technology, or offended some big shot. If that's the case, maybe asking Phoenix to come forward to intercede would help you regain your freedom. I still have some money in my hand, if it doesn’t work, we will pay all the money to others.”

Tang Bandi looked at the old man and said, "I don't know if the first person I saw when I opened my eyes was you, but since I can remember, the person who was busy walking around in front of me was you."

"You feed me, help me bathe, mend my shoes and sew clothes for me. In fact, you don't know how to sew clothes. You poked your hand several times. Then you help others work, or exchange shoes and clothes with others with snacks."

"When I get older, you will take me hunting, teach me to find caves, identify wild beasts, tell me the personality traits of each mutant beast, and how to kill it with one hit. The first trap I made was taught by you step by step. , you sharpened my first dog leg knife for me."

"All the things I have experienced before are closely related to you. I called you Master, but you refused to let me. You said you didn't teach me anything."

"You asked me and Xiaopang to call you godfather. Xiaopang called you godfather, but I didn't. The reason why I didn't call you is not because I don't want to, but because I think."

"I think" Tang Bandit lowered his head, unwilling to meet the old man's eyes: "You are not my godfather, you are a far more important person than this title."

"."

"After Xiaopang and I came to Xinxing, every time we ate something delicious, we would think about how great it would be if you were here. Every time we went to a place, we would think about how great it would be if you were here. Even the big bed where we sleep, the little Fatty will say that it would be great if you were here. We have discussed it, and when we find time, we will return to the old land to find you, and this time we will bring you to the new star no matter what.”

"Because neither of us has any other family besides you"

"We treat you as family, but you have been avoiding us"

"If this will cause you trouble, we can also stop contacting"

The old man sat down on the sofa again, drank all the tea in the cup in front of him, and also drank the cup of tea poured for Tang Bandit. Then he looked at Tang Bandit and said loudly: "I still have a third cup of tea." Three stories. Do you want to hear them?"
