Chapter Thirteen: Decision

  "For my wife!"

  Liu Suizhen's words shocked everyone, and the young people from Linjiazhuang couldn't believe that Liu Suizhen had already hooked up with this arrogant Miss Guo in just one day. Wasn't it a bit too fast?

  Huojian Tree had already wielded the Meteor Hammer, but Gu Yinghua remained seated on the slide, motionless and silent. When Liu Qingyun said this, she only slightly furrowed her brow, but Yu Changkong accepted this explanation: "Alright! Your wings have hardened, I can no longer control you. Don't come back to Linjia Village, don't come back to Yunzhong County, never come back again."

  He felt a bit sentimental, but soon turned to the group of young people and said: "You guys don't go back to Linjia Village either, there's no one left in the village! Ma Qianjun lost face, he has already spread the word that he wants to massacre Linjia Village, now even the old and children at home are hiding, don't go back!"

  He glared at Liu Suoyun fiercely: "This is all the trouble you've caused, I don't know how to explain it to Sister Lan!"

  Liu Suiyun was scolded by him, but he didn't talk back, only shrinking his head. Yu Changkong had already thrown over a cloth bag: "Get out of the cloud quickly, you troublemaker! Remember to take the small road, the one I taught you!"

  When he finished speaking, he took the six or seven disciples and turned to leave. The young people from Linjia Village also bowed to Liu Suizhen and hurriedly went to seek refuge with their relatives and friends. The Tianyi Gang was a powerful gang that dominated the entire Linjiang County, so they might need to hide for a while. Fortunately, when they set out, each of them had one or two gold leaves in their pockets, which were given by Gu Yinghua, the young lady. It was enough for them to spend a long time.

  Of course, they have to save as much money as possible and also help take care of Liu Xing and Zhang San's unfortunate families. They even need to help Liu SuYun recognize the debt of 77 yuan. There are still many things they need to do.

  Liu Suiyun watched as their figures disappeared into the mountains, feeling a bit relieved. He opened the cloth bag that Yu Changkong had thrown over and his heart suddenly warmed up.

  Inside, it was filled with food, including sausages, smoked meat, and rock sugar, all of which were his favorite snacks. There were also a few silver ingots and a map of Luoxing Mountain. As soon as he heard the news, Zhang Dashan rushed over from the county town, and when he saw how thoroughly prepared everything was, his eyes almost welled up with tears.

  He told himself that he must not shed a tear, and then he would take care of the problems with the Pan family and the Tianyi gang. Even if it meant going through a sea of knives and fire, he had to escort Gu Yinghua to Yuanzhou. However, what he said earlier was a problem - how could he get out of this situation?

  He had just thought of this, but heard that Gu Yinghua, the cold-faced and kind-hearted big sister, groaned in pain, and her originally tender and rosy face suddenly turned pale. Her forehead was even sweating, and Huo Qianshu anxiously called out by the slide: "Big sister, big sister!"

  Gu Yinghua took a while to catch her breath, looking at the two men surrounding her: "It's just this illness acting up again, I'm fine, let's head to Luoxing Mountain once more..."

  " You shouldn't have taken that Maru Seijin... "

  Gu Yinghua, however, simply waved her hand and said with a furrowed brow to Liu Suizhen: "It's nothing, really nothing. This situation is probably not suitable for us to go down the mountain now, it would be too much trouble for you and Huoshu."

  She hesitated for a moment before saying: "Why don't we go back to your place and take a rest first? Anyway, there's no one at Linjiazhuang right now!"

  "Good!" Liu Suizhen agreed: "Let's go now!"

  It wasn't until I picked up the sled that I realized Liu Xing was right yesterday. Don't look at Miss Gu's delicate appearance, her weight is not light, but this weight is nothing on the shoulders of Liu Suoyun and Huo Qianshu.

  But in a moment, they had already arrived at Linjiazhuang.

  This was originally a typical mountain village in Yunzhong County, with dozens of flat houses built on the mountainside and by the water. The elderly were leisurely sunbathing at the door, young women were hanging out in their own courtyards, thinking about their loved ones, farmers who worked hard were cultivating in the terraced fields in front of the village, and there were several small shops that couldn't be smaller. Walking through the village, you could hear the sound of chickens chirping and dogs barking. Liu Suoyun used to live a life like this day after day in this village, but now the whole village has become eerily silent.

  A deep silence, willow follows cloud A rage that wants to burst out, he knows who caused it.

  The Pang family, that's right, the Pang family, they took everything from you and now they're making you penniless again. He also reminded himself that the most important thing to do now is to take good care of Gu Yinghua, can't let this young lady suffer too much.

  Liu Suizhuan's house has arrived, and Gu Yinghua's face has also returned to its usual warmth. She originally only wanted to rest for a while, but after entering Liu Suizhuan's house, she had more ideas. Although Liu Suizhuan is an expert in laying tiles and even grows vegetables in an orderly manner, this house is a standard bachelor's pad. She was thinking of finding a bed to lie down for a bit.

  "Is there anything to eat? I've always been a picky eater!" Gu Yinghua wiped the sweat from her forehead: "Get me the best dishes."

  "Yes! Yes! Yes! It's just that my craftsmanship isn't good enough, so you'll have to make do."

  Liu Suizhen knew it was the last meal before entering Luoxing Mountain, so he quickly gathered all the ingredients. The vegetables in the garden were very fresh, and Liu Suizhen simply pulled them all out. He also found all the dried meat, rice, salted eggs, and seasonings from the house, and took out the food that Uncle Kong had prepared in his backpack. Just as he was about to start cooking, Huo Qianshu pushed him away: "Leave it to me!"

  Don't look at Huo Qianshu as a rough and careless person, but when it comes to cooking skills, Liu Suizhuan is far inferior to him. Seeing Huo Qianshu lighting the fire with ease, flipping the spatula up and down, soon the pot was filled with fragrance, even Liu Suizhuan's appetite was stirred, and he ended up eating three bowls of rice.

  But compared to Gu Yinghua and Huo Qianshu, Liu Suizhen's appetite was not worth mentioning, as the two of them ate bowl after bowl of rice.

  Gu Yinghua not only ate ten bowls of rice, but also the various green vegetables that Liu Suizhen picked from the vegetable garden were almost gone. Liu Suizhen couldn't figure out how Gu Yinghua, this elegant young lady, could finish so much food in such a short time, which exceeded the appetite of three ordinary men. It was unbelievable.

  "What are you doing? I've never liked it when servants overstep their bounds!"

  After Gu Yinghua finished eating, she finally wiped the fragrant sweat from her forehead and walked into the courtyard to clear her mind. However, she saw Liu Suoyun already on the roof again, fiddling with something. Upon closer inspection, she discovered that Liu Suoyun was carefully arranging small green tiles, not showing any signs of panic in his hands, and had actually tidied up the rooftop neatly.

  "Heavens, you still have the mind to flip tiles at a time like this!" Huo Qianshu couldn't help but admire Liu Qingyun's calm and collected demeanor: "You really are in the mood."

  "It's all right! Weren't you two having a meal just now? I see that even if we're idle, it's still idleness." Liu Suoyun had already stood up: "Just in time, there are still over ten tiles on the roof that haven't been fixed. I'll take a look at the rooftop to see if there's any enemy situation while also flipping over some green tiles."

  "Afraid of a leaky house?" Gu Yinghua clenched her fists: "As long as you escort this young lady to Yuanzhou, this young lady won't treat you unfairly!"

  She had seen it clearly, Liu Suizhen's movements were quick, and he was so skilled that he had already flipped over more than a dozen incomplete green tiles, leaving only four or five green tiles still empty.

  She even remembered that Li Zheng had received three or four taels of silver, saying that he would immediately invite a bricklayer to do the job, but in the end it was Liu Su Yun who did it himself. So she said another sentence: "Don't you put everything in order? If you have this heart, why not work harder for Miss, Miss has always been kind to diligent servants."

  "No, we're going to Yuanzhou!" Liu Suoyun had already jumped down like a big bird: "I've packed everything up, we can leave right away. Miss Gu, how about you?"

  Gu Yinghua saw a black cloth package behind Liu Suizhen and asked casually, "I'm all set, I can leave at any time, what's that?"

  "My mother's memorial tablet!" Liu Suoyun replied readily: "That's good! That's good!"

  His words were full of nostalgia, but as soon as he finished speaking, he took out a lighter from his pocket and casually lit the fire on the pile of firewood. The flames quickly rose, and he and Huo Qianshu had already set off towards the mountain path of Luoxing Mountain with their sleds.

  Gu Yinghua sat on the slide, clearly seeing that the fire was getting bigger and bigger, and had already emerged from the roof, which was where Liu Suoyun had just laid tiles.

  Gu Yinghua was somewhat puzzled: "Didn't you just replace the tiles on your own house?"

  Liu Suiyun's voice was extremely agitated: "That is my home, but I owe Miss Gu too much."

  Watching Liu Suoyun walk away without looking back, Gu Yinghua suddenly understood.

  The flames had a momentum that seemed to reach the sky, with half of the sky filled with rolling black smoke. The entire courtyard was already ablaze, and the scorching flames had penetrated through the roof, making Gu Yinghua's back shine brightly.

  Liu Su Yun grew up here since childhood, and there should be memories of his mother's care, as well as the strokes and drips that witnessed Liu Su Yun's growth. The courtyard has memories of brotherly love, engraved with Liu Su Yun's first romance, recording too many memories and past events. Just like Liu Su Yun said, when he returned to his hometown from a downfall, the courtyard was in disrepair. He and Liu Xing worked together to renovate the entire house, using their sweat to water it. Liu Su Yun even replaced the tiles of this house, and there were still several piles of small green tiles that he had spent a lot of money to buy.

  This is Liu Su Yun's home!

  Gu Yinghua looked at the man in front of her, who didn't even turn his head and only knew how to take big strides forward. Looking at the small black cloth bag behind him, she already understood this man's entire determination and courage.

  She lowered her head and said softly to Liu Suizhen: "I won't let you down, thank you!"

  These two words cannot summarize her emotions and shame, but what she can do is limited to these two words.

  Liu followed the cloud without stopping his footsteps, he just said in his heart: "Even if it's a thousand mountains and rivers, even if it's a thousand difficulties and dangers, even if it's a dragon pool and tiger cave, I will escort you to Yuanzhou or to the ends of the earth!"

  "Because you're worth it!"

  From the moment he set out, his heart was already at the ends of the earth.
