Jinzhou City.
Zhang Rongjun suddenly opened his eyes, startling Zhang Yuntai. He was about to call the doctor, but Zhang Rongjun, with great effort, slowly raised his hand to stop him.
“Yuntai, everyone out. Don’t let anyone in!”
“All? Dad…”
“Out, close the door!”
Seeing Zhang Yuntai’s confusion and hesitation, Zhang Rongjun suddenly raised his voice and then took a deep breath, like a broken gong.
Seeing this situation, Zhang Yuntai dared not say more and quickly led his children and wives out of the room.
As the door closed, he couldn’t help but feel a little helpless, wondering what his father was about to do.
At this moment, a young man appeared in front of Zhang Rongjun in the room, his hand gently resting on Zhang Rongjun’s left hand.
Immediately, a pure and nourishing true qi entered Zhang Rongjun’s body, rejuvenating him.
Zhang Rongjun seemed to have regained some energy and vigor, his eyes filled with surprise as he looked at the young man and spoke softly.
“Brother Sheng!”
Zhang Rongjun felt a long-lost sense of relief at this time, but what made him even happier was the young man in front of him who looked exactly like the one in his memories.
“Brother Rong, long time no see.”
“You didn’t die?” contemporary romance
At this time, Zhang Rongjun tried to get out of bed but found that he couldn’t. Liang Sheng couldn’t help but sigh upon seeing this.
“Brother Rong, you don’t have to be polite. My true qi can only support you for a while, just so you won’t leave in pain.”
Hearing this, Zhang Rongjun understood what was going on. He was already exhausted and only regained some energy because of Liang Sheng’s true qi.
He had a thousand words to say but didn’t know where to start. Instead, Liang Sheng picked up an orange from the side, peeled it, and fed it to Zhang Rongjun.
“Every year for the past ten years, you’ve visited my grave and drank wine with me. I’m afraid I won’t be able to do the same after you die, as 1 don’t know if I’ll still be in Jinzhou City.
Looking at you now, are you wondering why I’m not dead and why 1 didn’t come see you? It’s a long story, just think of it as me being away for ten years.” As he spoke, another extremely pure true qi entered Zhang Rongjun’s body.
Although Zhang Rongjun’s martial arts were not successful, he could still feel the power of this energy.
“Brother Sheng, even if you don’t say anything, I won’t ask. I’m content to see you before I die.
Seeing you like this, I’m reminded of the past. Back then, at Yichun Building, you were the only one who never looked down on me…”
As he chattered on, Zhang Rongjun gradually calmed down, looking at the young Brother Sheng as if he had returned to several decades ago.
“Brother Sheng, it’s a shame that I’m like this now and can’t have a drink with you…”
Before Zhang Rongjun could finish speaking, Liang Sheng took out a flask of wine and two cups from behind. Zhang Rongjun couldn’t help but smile.
“Brother Sheng, you truly understand me.”
“Brother Rong, this is your last drink in life.”
“Being able to have a drink with Brother Sheng before 1 die, I have no regrets.”
Soon, the wine was finished. At this time, Liang Sheng’s face showed a bit of sadness as his true qi could only give Zhang Rongjun a brief resurgence, not prolonging his life for a few more years.
“Alright, there’s not much time left for you to settle your affairs. I’ll leave first. If there’s a chance, I’ll visit your grave and pour wine for you.”
Hearing this, Zhang Rongjun’s eyes turned red. He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but said nothing. He had already guessed something.
Then Liang Sheng smiled slightly and disappeared from view, making it feel as if everything had just been a dream.
But the wine cup in his hand told him that Brother Sheng was indeed still alive.
“Yuntai, you guys can come in now.”
Zhang Yuntai was a little anxious outside, but he didn’t want to go against his father’s wishes at this time. Hearing Zhang Rongjun’s shout, he hurriedly opened the door and ran in.
As soon as he entered, he saw Zhang Rongjun’s face rosy and couldn’t help but be joyful.
“Father, you…”
“It’s just a momentary resurgence. I’m already running out of time. Don’t think too beautifully. 1 called you here to tell you a few things.
First, after I’m gone, keep my funeral simple and don’t make it a grand event. Remember to bury me in the graveyard 1 bought before, as it is closer to your Uncle Liang.
As for you, I am very relieved about your dealings with others. As long as you adhere to the principle of not competing with others, our Zhang family can last for a long time.
The last thing is, when you come to see me during the festivals, remember to go to your Uncle Liang, and make sure to include this in the family instructions.
No matter what happens in the future, as long as the Zhang family’s lineage continues, they must commemorate your Uncle Liang. Have you written it down?”
“I have written it down, father!”
Seeing that Zhang Yuntai had listened to his last wishes, Zhang Rongjun breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at the ceiling, his voice getting weaker and weaker, and then Zhang Yuntai’s hand holding his dropped down.
In an instant, cries echoed throughout the mansion. Before his consciousness plunged into darkness, Zhang Rongjun saw the corners of his mouth curl up at the door.
Brother Sheng…
Liang Sheng walked down the street. He actually waited until Zhang Rongjun passed away before leaving, and now there was one less old friend in the world.
Moreover, Zhang Rongjun might have guessed something, so he asked the Zhang family descendants to always pay homage to him.
His thoughts were not wrong. If fate allowed, there would be no harm in a chance encounter in the future, as long as it didn’t involve his own safety.
At this moment, Liang Sheng felt a little low. Such situations would happen one after another as time passed, and old friends would die one by one, while only he would be eternal and undying.
Just then, Liang Sheng suddenly squinted his eyes, not expecting to meet another old acquaintance today. Although they only had a brief encounter before, it just happened that he was in a bad mood now, which could be seen as bad luck.
Of course, before venting his emotions, he had to make sure it was safe. With that in mind, he quietly followed.
Even without the Attribute Panel Concealment, nobody would know that Liang Sheng, who was now in the Postnatal Nine Realms, was following them. The person in front of him would never discover him.
The man ahead was very cautious and took several detours habitually to ensure safety before returning to his residence.
When he entered the room, there was a big bald head. It was the Lifeless Sect follower who had conspired with Flower Mother for Liang Qiang’s inheritance back then.
This time, he came to Jinzhou City alone to investigate Wu Chang’s death, whether it was actually the doing of someone from the Lifeless Sect.
After the Lifeless Sect’s plan in Jinzhou City was destroyed ten years ago, they temporarily suspended their activities. Later, for some reason, the Lifeless Sect specifically ordered all church members not to enter Jinzhou City area.
This time the rumor of Wu Chang’s death being caused by the Lifeless Sect came up. If this were true, he would be responsible for finding the person and delivering them to the internal punishment.
However, after days of investigation, Baldy concluded that it wasn’t the work of the sect at all, but rather someone framing them.
Although he couldn’t find the real culprit, confirming it wasn’t the work of the sect members was enough to satisfy him and be able to report to his superiors.
He carefully wrote the secret letter and then put it into a small bamboo stick. He caught a carrier pigeon from the pigeon house, ready to send the message.
But at that moment, he suddenly felt a sharp pain and lost consciousness. Naturally, it was Liang Sheng who had made a move. After reading the secret letter, Liang Sheng couldn’t help but think the other party’s luck was indeed bad.
Since there were no other Lifeless Sect Followers in the city, death was his only option. Who could blame him for running into a moody Liang Sheng?
Then he tied the bamboo stick back to the leg of the pigeon and let it fly. It was best to let the Lifeless Sect know there was no incident in the city and not to send anyone there.
As for the Baldy lying on the ground, Liang Sheng dealt with it cleanly and sent him directly to the Paradise of the West.
“Second Uncle, I didn’t expect that so many years after your death, I would send away the man who might have cuckolded you. This is also a way to resolve your past grievances.”
That year, Baldy and Flower Mother killed a little beggar and disappeared from Jinzhou City. Now, dying in Liang Sheng’s hands, it can be said that it was Baldy’s bad luck to have met a depressed Liang Sheng.
Then Liang Sheng took out Corpse Dissolving Powder, and soon the Lifeless Sect’s Baldy completely disappeared from the world.
With this, Liang Sheng’s melancholy from bidding farewell to his old friend dissipated, and his thoughts became clear!
