"You said how fragile human life is."

"We were on the battlefield and watched helplessly as the soldiers who retreated from the front line died of serious injuries one by one."

"They are so young!"

"I'm not for myself."

"I can't worry about this country."

"Cong Ye, you are the person who knows me best."

The old man's eyes, wrapped in wrinkles, were cloudy and sparkling with tears, as if yesterday's battlefield was right in front of him.

At that time, he and Cong would always take advantage of a moment of leisure to eat a corn steamed bun at dusk.

The old man put his hand on Cong Ye's shoulder, and Cong Ye could clearly feel his trembling due to his emotional excitement.

"We have made it this far with great difficulty. We cannot leave without seeing anything."

Tears overflowed from the corners of the old man's eyes.

Cong Ye took his hand and said, "I understand."

He helped the old man back to his seat. The old man patted the back of his hand. The turbulent emotions calmed down and he said slowly:

"We have gone through the war together, and we must also witness the rise together."

Cong Ye looked at him, smiled and nodded.

His heart felt cold.

After Qin Shihuang unified the world, he was obsessed with finding the elixir of life;

In his later years, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was also obsessed with seeking immortality.

No matter how you explain it, behind the dream of immortality, there must be selfish desires.

Cong Ye finally held the old man's hand and called him as before: "Grandpa Wang."

The old man was startled, held his hand tightly, and said, "What's wrong?"

Cong Ye shook his head and said nothing.

There was so much he wanted to say, but not now.

After returning from Zhang Mansion, Kunlun also talked a lot with Cong.

"Many skilled humans appeared in Zhang Qishan's house, and they also had guns in their hands."

Cong also nodded.

"What exactly does Zhang Qishan want to do?"

"Have you seen the person hiding in that dark room?"

"Why is he hiding inside?"

Kunlun was very curious.

Cong Ye said: "Zhang Qishan wants to live forever."

Kunlun froze in place for a long time before bursting into laughter.

"Hahaha, he is really good at talking nonsense!"

Kunlun laughed.

She looked arrogant: "If humans could live forever, wouldn't the world be in chaos? Hahaha! The goblin has a limit to his lifespan, but he wants to live forever."

"Yes."

Cong Ye sighed.

Why do humans want to live forever?

Cong also felt that living too long would be boring.

He smiled to himself again.

It seemed particularly unpleasant to hear these words coming from a man who could live forever.

He himself wants to live forever, and he was excited about getting immortality at the beginning, so what qualifications does he have to tell others?

"what happened to you?"

Kunlun asked carefully.

Cong Ye shook his head, "It's okay."

"Don't be sad for humans."

Kunlun told him very experiencedly.

Cong Ye rubbed her head and said nothing.

Returning to Hongfu, Cong also began to deploy the next plan.

The arrival of a person completely disrupted Cong Ye's steps.

Zhang Qiling is here.

in a month.

One day, he suddenly stood at the gate of Hong Mansion.

It is as eye-catching as a drop of black ink entering the painting.

The gatekeeper quickly ran in and reported to Cong Ye.

The moment Cong Ye opened the door, his heart beat heavily.

Zhang Qiling's black eyes were half lowered, and under his eyes was a shadow cast by his long eyelashes.

Cong also walked towards him, Zhang Qiling stretched out his hand.

Cong also hugged him.

Zhang Qiling had a faint smell on his body.

It's not a perfume, it's very light and few people can smell it.

It's like the smell of snowy mountains and the cool breath.

"I'm coming to find you."

Zhang Qiling said in his ear.

Cong Ye led him into the Hong Mansion.

Zhang Qiling came at the wrong time, but it didn't matter, Cong wouldn't say it.

Because Zhang Qiling has nowhere else to go but here.

He cannot be angry with Zhang Qiling because of other people's evil.

Zhang Qiling entered the Hong Mansion for the first time. He lowered his eyes all the time, and his eyes fell on Cong Ye's hand holding his.

Cong also took him to meet Er Erhong.

Er Erhong was obviously stunned, her eyes lingering on the hands he and Cong Ye were holding for a few seconds.

"This is my master, my dearest relative."

Cong Ye introduced Zhang Qiling.

Zhang Qiling looked at Er Erhong and quickly lowered his black eyes.

Cong Ye said to Er Erhong again: "Master, he is Zhang Qiling. He doesn't like to talk."

Er Erhong suddenly noticed the difference keenly.

Cong Ye looked like a child to him, but he acted completely protective in front of this person.

He looked at Cong Ye as if Cong Ye looked at Zhang Qiling in front of him.

This realization made Er Erhong's heart sink.

He didn't want Cong Ye to do something that Cong Ye didn't like for anyone.

The Zhang Qiling in front of him was obviously the person who could make Cong Ye do things against his will.

Zhang Qiling felt the sharpness and rejection suddenly displayed by the person in front of him who was the closest to him in Cong Ye's mouth.

He held Cong Ye's hand tighter and tighter.

Cong also got the consent of Er Erhong and took Zhang Qiling to the small building where he lived.

Zhang Qiling let him arrange it and sat on the bench obediently, waiting for Cong Ye to return loaded with snacks.

"Try it."

Cong also opened the snack and pushed it in front of Zhang Qiling.

Under his expectant gaze, Zhang Qiling picked up the snack in front of him and took a bite.

"Is it tasty?"

Cong Ye asked him.

Zhang Qiling nodded.

"After the separation, you have been staying in Changbai Mountain?"

Cong also asked some questions while he was eating.

Zhang Qiling nodded.

"Did you find the answer you wanted to know?"

Before leaving, the master told Zhang Qiling that there were still some answers that needed to be found in Changbai Mountain.

Cong also had such a problem.

Zhang Qiling also nodded.

"Can you live forever?"

Cong Ye suddenly asked.

Zhang Qiling looked at Cong Ye in confusion, as if he didn't understand why Cong Ye asked this.

He nodded cautiously and shook his head cautiously.

Cong Ye strangely understood what Zhang Qiling meant.

"Is there any way to make ordinary people live forever?"

Cong Ye asked.

Zhang Qiling did not eat any more snacks or answer, but asked him proactively: "Do you want to live forever?"

Cong Ye looked at him, moved closer, and held his wrist:

"From the moment you arrived in Changsha, you were helpless."

"do you understand?"

Their eyes met.

Cong can also understand Zhang Qiling, and Zhang Qiling can also understand him.

"Young official, you have to tell me so that I can help you."

Cong Ye looked at Zhang Qiling's eyes, which were as clear as the lake under the snow-capped mountains, and said seriously.

"Do you believe me?"

Cong Ye suddenly thought of it.

What can be pursued by all parties must be extremely important. How can Zhang Qiling be sure that he is trustworthy when he asks directly?

Zhang Qiling stared intently: "Believe."

He said again: "I believe you."
