Son of the Tower

Chapter 527 The Proverbs Oath Keeper

Throughout the winter, Mars ran on both sides of the four islands, and became a real leopard, moving wherever there was work.

Weiss is the girl who has followed Mars the most times. Every time she looks at the ruins on the white ground under her feet in the sky, she always sighs for this country.

"Before the great destruction, this must have been a very prosperous country."

"The Great Destruction almost ended human civilization. Huge city ruins can be seen all over the world. In the New World, until now, humans have not liberated the huge ruins in the central region."

Those ruins have swallowed up too much hope for the people of the New World, and countless twisted omnics are produced and copied in them. Whenever there is a country in the New World that is strong enough to unify the New World, these omnics will start to take the initiative, as if As if they didn't want the will of the land to be unified.

"Perhaps after the old continent is cleaned up, we will be free to deal with other places." Weiss looked at the map of the four islands, and there were still several huge black areas on it.

Mars looked at Weiss while making dumplings: "You also come to help."

"I don't know how, how about I chop meat for you?" Weiss looked at Mars.

"Then you might as well make rice cakes for us." Tsubaki said.

With her sleeves rolled up, Wei Si came to An Mimi's side and pounded rice cakes with the rabbit spirit.

With the approaching of the New Year in southern Thailand, the family reunited in front of the small workshop. A custom in southern Thailand that existed thousands of years ago.

It's just that Mars' cell phone rang, and Meng Zou helped Mars take out the cell phone to answer it: "Ah, father, um... okay, I'll let Mars pick it up."

Mars clapped his hands, cleaned the greasy hands with psionic energy, and then answered the phone: "Mentor, what's the matter?"

"Come to the Nursing Home in the third district of New Hangzhou to see off people. By the way, drive over here. Don't fly. It's not good to scare everyone." The instructor's words were a little lonely.

Mars hummed, and then looked at Meng Zou after the instructor hung up the phone: "In the Honorary Nursing Home in the third district of New Hangzhou, is there a senior swordsman living in it?"

"Yes, there are quite a few, but almost all of them have left in the past two years, and there is one left, Chen Zhiqiang, who is 98." Speaking of this, Meng Zou raised his brows: "Mr. Chen is dead?"

"Should be, let me send someone off." Mars said and stood up: "I have to leave for a while, the instructor called me."

"Someone has to accompany you, Chun, how about you go?" Nirvana was making dumplings quickly while looking at Chun beside her.

"No, if you don't go to the second seat, why should I go to the third seat?" Tsubaki asked.

"Then who will go, we can't let Weiss or Natasha go." An Mimi, who was pounding rice cakes, raised her ears.

"Let Lily of the valley go, this girl is also a child of Gaota now, it's time for her to meet the elders of Gaota." Mars finished speaking and looked at Lily of the valley who was sitting on the sofa in the workshop: "Lily of the valley, take Get on your Mori Maru, and I'll take you to see off your senior."

"Okay." Nirvana looked at Suzuran, and Suzuran jumped off the sofa and ran out, Morimaru followed her and ran out.

"In the four islands, Suzuki can marry at this age." Tsubaki said with a smile.

"What evil old society, you four islands have problems." Weiss, who was pounding rice cakes, started to complain.

Mars called out the car, let Suzuran and Morimaru get into the car, and then he got into the driver's seat by himself: "I'll go back as soon as I go."

………………

The reason for not choosing to fly is because of the instructor's order. After all, no one wants to put pressure on the new HZ citizens after the Chinese New Year. When the citizens see Mars rising from the ground, they will immediately spread the news to the whole world. It didn't end well.

Since the instructor was well-intentioned, Mars was too embarrassed to mess around. Fortunately, the Chinese New Year was coming soon, and there were not many people on the road. Mars drove quickly all the way to the gate of the Nursing Home in the third district of New Hangzhou. .

The antique large wooden door made of eastern soil, the tower's omnic was already guarding the door, Mars threw the car to the omnic to park on his behalf, and walked into the nursing home with Lily of the Valley.

Mori Maru trotted into the hall following its owner.

Mars went up the stairs following the guidance of the omnic, and saw Mrs. Celine standing there in front of the door of the last room in the left corridor on the second floor.

"Go and meet your seniors, children." Madam Celine hugged Mars, and then she rubbed Lily of the Valley's little head: "And you, don't be afraid, you know."

Lily of the Valley nodded, and followed Mars into the room.

There were only the mentor and two young children in the room. They were wearing the uniform of the tower. When they saw Mars come in, they immediately saluted: "Mr. Chief."

These words opened the eyes of the haggard old man lying on the hospital bed.

He saw Mars and Lily of the Valley wearing the uniform of the tower, and nodded with a smile: "Welcome, I am really glad that you can come, the young legendary swordsman, the uncrowned chief of the tower, Mars... "

The words were hurried, and the old man gasped.

The sage Yu at the side stretched out his hand and used the healing technique, but Mars could feel that the old man in front of him was exhausted and his organs were already failing.

On the way, Mars heard Meng Zou introduce him. His name is Chen Zhiqiang, and he was the chief of Gaota 80 years ago. In that era, Gaota was the most lonely. The average lifespan of an adult apprentice after becoming a sword user is only two years and seven months.

But Chen Zhiqiang survived. He was the chief of the tower at that time. He was born in an orphanage and was named Zhiqiang by the sage, and Chen was the surname of the dean.

He worked as a swordsman from the age of 17 until he retired at the age of 31. After that, he got married and had three children with his wife. All three children were sent to the tower, and they all died on the road of the swordsman. blood.

His wife divorced him in anger. He was alone, and from time to time he picked seedlings from the orphanage and sent them to the tower, but he gave away eleven children, and none of the eleven children could go far.

In the end, Chen Zhiqiang chose to live in the nursing home alone. Until a few years ago, when the tower was reopened, he had the cheek to speak to the orphanage where he was born, and selected two children to send to the tower.

These are the two children in front of Mars, Chen Ruyi and Chen Miaoyun.

"Chief Chen..." So, Mars opened his mouth.

"I asked my mentor to ask you to come and see me for the last time. He agreed and you came too. I'm really happy." The old man smiled, and his face began to turn rosy: "I still remember my On the first day of becoming a sword envoy, everyone was there, and everyone said that we became sword envoys, and we will kill evil and eliminate evil..."

Mars raised his head and looked at the old photos hanging on the wall beside his bed. There were two rows of young people on it, with fifteen people in total.

Meng Zou said that in the second year, Chen Zhiqiang was the only one left in that class.

There is a young girl snuggling beside Chen Zhiqiang, who is still a teenager, and a teenager standing on the other side of his companion. The young lives are smiling and facing the camera.

It was a cruel era, and the youth of the swordsman lived in the pool of blood of his peers, at the end of the wicked, and even at the bottom of his own life.

"I promote good and punish evil, do righteous things, and punish evil leaders." Mars walked to the bedside, the old man was already panting, his lifespan was coming to an end, and his cloudy eyeballs looked at the door of the room.

Mars looked up and saw the very similar young people in the photo. They were younger than the people in the photo, but at this moment, the old man smiled.

He pointed to one of the girls.

Then the smile froze.

Mars reached out and wiped his eyelids.

Then went to the door.

"Mr. Chief, we are the relatives of Chief Chen's friend back then. This is our ceremony. At the last moment of the old man's life, we descendants will use this method..." The girl shed tears with red eyes : "My little grandma fell in love with Chief Chen back then, but in the end she died under the sword of the wicked. It was Chief Chen who avenged her..."

Mars patted her on the shoulder, and then patted the shoulders of these young people one by one.

After sending these young people away, Mars looked at his mentor, who had already covered Chief Chen's face with a white scarf.

"There are not many old swordsmen who are still alive." The sage of the tower raised his head and looked at Mars: "I thought I didn't have any spare parts and I wanted to entrust this matter to you, but...but After all, you are the chief of the tower, and he is also the chief, he said he wanted to see you, look at the chief of the tower today, look at you, a good boy who beats the wicked and dare not do evil."

Mars nodded in silence: "I'm very glad that our generation of swordsmen did not disappoint the seniors."

Having said that, Mars looked at Lily of the Valley, the little fox had burst into tears at some point.

Just like the two children kneeling there crying into tears.

"Are you scared?" Mars led her into the corridor.

"No, I didn't scare you. I heard Mr. Meng Zou's story about Mr. Chen. He is a real hero, but...he turned into this in the end. It's a pity, but he is happy again. Before I left, I saw you, sir, and he was very satisfied, because he knew that the swordsman of the tower would continue to guard this land." Speaking of this, Ling Lan took out a handkerchief from her pocket and wiped away her tears.

"I can't cry. Chief Chen has no regrets in his heart. He is very happy. I can't let his happiness become unhappy." She said so.

Myers waited until she was done wiping away tears, then reached out and hugged the little guy.

At this moment, a voice in Mars told himself.

Whether you are in heaven or hell in the future, always remember one thing.

This piece of land loved by countless heroes must be well guarded.

Just like those swordsmen, those people who slashed, those who voluntarily lived in the dark night and the pool of blood in order to let the people of the world live and see the sun shining on the earth from fifteen thousand years ago to the present.

Never give in.
