Chapter 61: This is the world of mortals
Kang An was also a little unable to hold himself tight. Some words were stuck in his throat. He wanted to say something but was blocked and couldn't say a word.
If the ten years on the mountain were his most worry-free time, then the days after he came down from the mountain and lived with Bai Yuli were Kang'an's happiest time.
The two foxes were not related to each other, but they were connected because of Lord Turtle. It was as if they were destined to meet each other wonderfully, without any barriers, and they cuddled up to each other as if it was natural.
Like a sweet dream.
No matter how many years passed, he would not be calm when thinking about this time. If he had a choice, even if there was a throne in the mountains and seas waiting for him to ascend the throne, he would rather squeeze in a rented house with Bai Yuli and wait until they grow up. Work hard for that elevator room again.
He just has no future.
But after entering HKUST, what the dean said to him, and after seeing the existence of people like Qiu Tianyi, Turtle Master said to him again today - there is a 'big world' waiting for him ahead. He looked at him and asked him how monsters like him and Bai Yuli should deal with each other in that 'big world'.
Kang An had never thought about this issue before.
He didn't want to think about it in detail, and even comforted himself like Ah Q. No one would pay attention to little monsters like him and Bai Yuli. At worst, he could wait until the situation was tense to calm down.
Facts have proved that he was just wishful thinking.
Being related to Mr. Turtle, it is impossible for him not to attract attention. When the two clans are at war and each other loses their minds, even if Kang An tears off his fur, his blood will be "dirty" in the hearts of some people. .
What's more, there is also the patronage of Lord Turtle in the past ten years. Kang An cannot refuse his entrustment. Since he cannot refuse, he might as well take over this authority generously, and he may be able to control his own destiny in the future.
As for Bai Yuli, as long as she doesn't take the initiative, Kang An will never ask her to go back to the mountains with him. He can't be so selfish and let others change the trajectory of his life for his own decisions.
But one day,
If the situation was visibly tense, he might go down the mountain to see Bai Jade Li like Lord Turtle came to see him, but then his words would have to be changed, and he would have to change it to: One hundred thousand soldiers from the mountains and seas, I respectfully invite my aunt to go back to the mountains to escape the summer heat.
Kang An thought humorously,
But he still couldn't make himself laugh in his heart. He couldn't have met Bai Yuli before leaving, otherwise he was afraid that he would kick the broken mark on his hand away.
"Aunt..."
He was about to hang up the phone, otherwise the dignified Prince of Shanhai would lose his grace by peeing in his eyes, but at this moment, a rough hand stretched out from beside him and wiped away the suspicious liquid on his face.
"Jade raccoon."
The old man behind him took the phone and said with a hearty laugh: "Kang An is joking with you. I just stopped by to see him. I will take him all the way back to Shanhai from Luyang. The road is too long."
"..."
There was a sobbing sound on the other end of the phone, followed by a sniffle, and Bai Yuli's even more gulping question: "Really, really?"
"When did I lie to you?"
As Turtle Master spoke, he patted Kang An on the shoulder, who was looking up in a daze, and said, "Wipe your tears. You will have to work hard to take care of him in the future. When you are an aunt, you must act like an aunt."
"...Well, I know." Bai Yuli paused for a moment, and then said: "Then Mr. Turtle, please give him the phone."
"Hey, okay."
Master Gui handed over the phone, but he was smiling bitterly in his heart. They were all foxes, and their thoughts were very clear. This girl was blaming him.
Over there, Kang An took the phone hesitantly.
He didn't know what to say, there was so much foreshadowing, and finally Turtle Master's words disrupted his rhythm.
"Kang'an..."
On the other end of the phone, Bai Yuli still had a strong nasal voice.
"I'm here, auntie," he said softly.
"Um……"
Bai Yuli pondered for a moment, and then said in a very pitiful and pitiful tone: "Don't leave my aunt, okay? My aunt likes you very much. You said you wanted to leave, and I don't know how sad I am."
"..."
Kang An felt that the square seal in his hand was particularly harsh.
Then there was the sound of drawing paper from the other side. It was probably his aunt wiping her face. He waited for a moment and then heard Bai Yuli's calmer voice: "Don't worry about what Mr. Turtle said to you. You are so young, what happens to those things?"
Got you? There are so many monsters in the mountains, and Hu Niu is much more talented than you."
She knows everything.
He didn't care about Mr. Turtle who was right next to him, and said in an extremely tough tone: "Don't worry, you can stay with my aunt! My aunt is actually very powerful and will protect you. Kang An, do you believe in my aunt?"
silence,
This is Kang'an today.
At this time, Bai Yuli didn't care about his silence, and his thinking became more and more active: "You just stay in the Demon Management Bureau and wait for my aunt to make money and come back to pick you up. If I can't see you, I will go back to the mountains and seas to pick you up. I am
Your guardian, you have to listen to me, do you understand?"
She just said pick up,
But he didn't say that he and Kang An would go back to the mountains.
But including Turtle Master, both of them knew the reason for this. It was true that Bai Yuli's destination was the mountains, but she would not stay there until she was relieved.
At the end, Bai Yuli didn't hear the answer, but became more and more relieved. When he was about to hang up the phone, his voice softened again:
"You must wait for Auntie."
"Auntie will come to pick you up."
"You must wait for me."
"..."
Until the call was hung up, Kang An couldn't make a sound. Not long after, he felt the square seal in his hand being taken back by Lord Turtle, and he raised his head and looked at him.
"Jade raccoon dog, scolded me to wake me up."
Mr. Turtle clasped his hands behind his back and said a little gratified but also a little sad: "Even she is confident that she can protect you, but as a temporary pride, I am so cowardly that I am not as good as my own child."
"...Master."
Kang An felt unspeakable emotions in his heart.
The old man who had protected him for ten years put his big hand on his head, and regained some pride in his words: "I am here, I am here, no matter who it is, I have to look north before touching you, I feel so worried."
.”
After saying that,
He looked at the square seal in his palm: "Yu Li, you are right, you are still young, and you still have to struggle in the mortal world for a few years. As for this thing, as long as it is in my hands for one day, it will be prepared for you.
"
"..."
Kang An, who was still able to hold his emotions in front of the white jade raccoon dog, was like a dam bursting. Holding his towering tree, tears flowed out uncontrollably: "Master, I won't be playful anymore."
"Let's play."
The old man caressed him gently: "Only in this world of mortals can you cry, laugh, be happy, get angry, get beaten, and be happy. Only then can you develop a delicate heart, withstand the thunder of that day, and withstand the strong wind.
If you can climb up to the Lingxiao Palace and step into the Yaochi Palace, you will be able to become an immortal on your own in the end."
These words,
Not only did it make Kang An think deeply, but the old man's own long-blocked hard work was wiped away in an instant.
This is the world of mortals.
