Chapter 8: Separation Becomes Eternal

  Hua Lieyang smiled and said, "You gave me a gun, binoculars, and a watch!" As he skillfully disassembled the Browning pistol, he continued, "Dad, what kind of person is Grandpa?!"

  "How should I put it? In the old days, when Old Master was around, he relied heavily on your grandfather, but now as for Young Master, I'm not so sure!" Father Hua Yun said after some thought.

  Before he knew it, it was already past four in the evening. Yang Yutong's car stopped at the entrance of Hu Lieyang's house. Then, he heard Hu Anqi's soft and gentle voice calling out: "Brother, come out quickly to help! Grandpa bought a lot of things!" After hearing the call, Hu Lieyang swiftly put his gun on himself and ran out of the door.

  As soon as he stepped out, Hua Lieyang saw the Japanese man who had been wandering around his house suddenly pull out a handgun. Quick-witted and quick-handed, Hua Lieyang didn't say a word and pulled out his Browning and Tokarev pistols, firing them left and right. After hearing the "bang... bang..." of gunfire, Hua Lieyang didn't even look at the corpse on the ground and quickly ran to Yang Yutian's car, asking: "Grandfather, are you okay?!"

  "Son, Grandpa is fine!" Yang Yutong looked at Hua Anqi beside him and asked: "Girl, were you scared?"

  Sister Hua Anqi shook her head and said, "No!" At this time, Hua Xunri, who had come out early after hearing the gunshot, was startled by Hua Lieyang's accurate shooting and suddenly became suspicious. After a while, Hua Xunri, who came back to his senses, walked to the side of the car and said, "Dad, are you okay?!"

  Yang Yutong smiled and said, "Nothing! With my great-grandson here, nothing will happen to me!" As he spoke, Yang Yutong gestured to the guards beside him to dispose of the body.

  After a while, Hua Xunri and Hua Lieyang walked into the house with something in their hands, following Yang Yutian who was holding Hua Anqi. As soon as they sat down, Yang Yutian said: "It seems that you can't stay here anymore, why don't you come with me?"

  Upon hearing Yang YuTing's words, Father Hua XunRi looked at Mother Yang FengLan. After seeing the serious nod from Father Hua XunRi, Mother Yang FengLan opened her mouth and said: "Dad, I and FengLan have already thought it through, we've gotten used to living here so we won't be going with you! However, we want you to take the child away! That way we can also feel at ease!"

  "Since you've all made up your minds! Then I'll take the kids and leave tomorrow morning!" Yang Yutong took a deep breath and said: "If you come to your senses, come find me in Fengtian!"

  At night, when Yang Yutong went to sleep in the next room, Hua Xun looked at Hua Lieyang and asked: "Tell me honestly, who taught you your marksmanship?!" Hua Lieyang thought for a moment before saying: "It was a Russian! He was injured and fell by the riverbank, I saved him when I went to fetch water! Then he taught me during his recovery!"

  Hua Xunri immediately believed Hua Lieyang's words without thinking much. After a while, Hua Lieyang took out five hand grenades from his small box and said, "Dad, you and mom are in danger here, I'm worried about you! So keep these few hand grenades just in case!"

  Hua Xun looked at the hand grenade Hua Lieyang had taken out and nodded, asking worriedly: "Son, have you killed anyone before?!"

  "Yes! The one I eliminated was indeed Tuo Lao Cai!" Hua Lieyang said seriously. Upon hearing Hua Lieyang's words, Hua Xunri suddenly took a cold breath in, and just as he was about to say something, his mother Yang Fenglan walked in and looked at Hua Lieyang saying: "Son, give your mom some of the bullets from your gun!"

  Hua Lieyang rummaged through a small cloth bag and took out a box of 50 rounds of Browning pistol ammunition, placing it on the kang table. At this time, his mother, Yang Fenglan, took out a red wooden jewelry box from a camphor wood chest, opened it, and pulled out a Browning pistol, saying: "The Browning pistol your grandfather gave you and this one were originally a pair!" As she spoke, Mother Yang Fenglan suddenly fell into reminiscing about the past.

  After a while, Yang Fenglan, who had come back to her senses, smiled and said to Hua Lieyang: "Son, don't worry! With your father's abilities, no matter what happens, our family will be fine! Just stay by your grandfather's side and rest assured!"

  Hua Lieyang nodded and said: "I know!"

  The next morning, amidst the crying of his sister Hua Anqi, under the gaze of their parents, Hua Lieyang took his sister Hua Anqi and followed Grandfather Yang Yutong to leave the village. But unexpectedly, this separation became a permanent farewell!

  "Grandpa, if you're not here in the future, where will we live?" asked her younger sister Hua Anqi innocently.

  "If Grandpa isn't around in the future, you'll send Grandpa back to his hometown! In the future, you'll live with Grandma and them!" Yang Yutong said with a smile.

  After eating a little dinner, Hua Lieyang returned to the room arranged by Yang Yutong. Lying alone on the bed, he kept turning over and recalling past history. After a while, Hua Lieyang suddenly sat up from the bed, walked to the desk, turned on the table lamp, and began to flip through the calendar on the table. As soon as he saw the calendar, Hua Lieyang was shocked! Because in three days, it would be January 10th, and historically, Yang Yutong and Chang Yinhui were killed together at the Shenyang Laohu Hall on the evening of January 10th.

  After a while, Hua Lieyang came back to his senses from the shock and thought for a moment before making up his mind to protect his maternal grandfather in this world.

  The next morning, Yang Yuting called Hu Lieyang and his sister to the study room and said: "Grandfather is planning to send you two to school in a couple of days, how about that?!"

  "Grandfather, since that's the case, I'll be your bodyguard for five days! After five days, I'll obediently go to school and study. What do you think?!" Hu Lieyang said with a negotiating tone.

  "Alright! I agree!" Yang Yuting said with a smile. Just then, Yang Yuting's personal bodyguard Ma Longhai walked in carrying a military uniform and said: "General, the young master asked me to prepare this military uniform for him this morning, here it is!"

  Yang Yuting heard Ma Longhai's words and smiled, saying: "Hurry up and change! I'm about to go to work!" As soon as Yang Yuting finished speaking, Hua Lieyang snatched the military uniform from Ma Longhai's hand and ran back to his own room. After changing, Hua Lieyang had a Tokarev pistol at his waist and a Mosin-Nagant 1910 rifle on his back, appearing in front of Yang Yuting.
