57 Farewell, Young Disciple
He was busy until it was dark, and then the bodies of all the clansmen were piled up together, and Zhang Fei had no intention of cultivating. He piled up dry wood with everyone and cremated the dead clan members. He was busy until the sky was brightly lit by the sun, and then all the dead clansmen have been cremated.
At this time, some clansmen had dug a huge deep pit under the tomb of Mu Tuo and his wife. After burying the ashes of the clansmen, the graves were not piled up, but the gentle hillside was restored, so that Mu Tuo and his wife could see the territory of the clansmen in their death.
Presumably, with the protection of many clansmen and the company of Qiu Shuang, Mu Tuo and his wife could live peacefully.
After doing all this, Zhang Fei did not leave. He had to observe filial piety for his relatives for three days. During these three days, Zhang Fei instructed the clan to pack everything that could be used in the tribe.
The valuables that the tribe has accumulated over the years, such as food, clothing, weapons, etc., are piled up on the central square of the tribe.
The three days of filial piety had passed, and Zhang Fei’s mood had also improved.
In the early morning of the fourth day, Zhang Fei gathered the surviving clansmen at the village square. Seeing the mountains-like objects piled up in front of him, Zhang Fei couldn’t help feeling overwhelmed.
“Uncle Chi.”
“Master Zhang Fei, if you have anything, just tell me.” Chi didn’t rest well these days, he had been busy. The two dark circles under his eyes were evidences of his lack of sleep. Except for Zhang Fei, he had the highest status in the clan. So he had been directing the clansmen to sort out their items.
.....
Zhang Fei took out a jade ring from the space, which was the space ring he got from the Immortal Cave.
Zhang Fei used his spiritual sense to sweep through the items piled up on the square, and everything was immediately put into the space in the jade ring.
Zhang Fei handed the jade ring to Chi and said, “Uncle Chi, you put away this jade ring, everything is in this ring.”
“Master, what do you mean?” Chi couldn’t help asking. He didn’t understand why Zhang Fei was giving him the item. Since he couldn’t use it on his own, wasn’t it better for the son to hold it by himself?
“Uncle Zao, you have also seen that our clan is decimated. So, from now on, there will be no Ironwood clan anymore.” Zhang Fei replied. He couldn’t help feeling a little heavy, and the remainig members of the clan also silently lowered their heads and voices.
Zhang Fei took a deep breath and then said: “Uncle Chi, you’ll lead the rest of the clan to go to the Han clan together. Go to my sister, Qiu Hong, and tell her what happened. Please, don’t let her be sad, and I hope you will all live a good life among the Hans.”
Chi was stunned for a moment, and suddenly said: “Master, are you not coming with us?”
Zhang Fei shook his head and said, “I have more things to do, so I won’t be with you.”
Chi said suddenly: “Master, if you go to take revenge, we will go with you.”
“Yes, let’s go together.” The clansmen also said firmly with Chi.
Zhang Fei’s eyes suddenly turned red, and he sighed in his heart, “Father, did you hear that?” This is the Ironwood tribe you built with your own hands. To have this warriors as a clan, your son is really proud of you.”
Zhang Fei took a step back and bowed deeply to the people. The clansmen immediately quieted down, not understanding what the son meant.
“I thank you for my parents. However, the demons are strong, so I can’t deal with them. What Ii said to be done was what my parents told me before their deaths.”
Chi frowned and couldn’t help asking: “Young Master, you and I are not outsiders, can you tell me what’s going on, and I’ll accompany you to do it? You’re alone, I’m really worried.”
Zhang Fei shook his head and said, “Uncle Chi, to be honest, my parents wrote a letter before their death, asking me to go to Xuanbing College to find a teacher named Bule to learn the cultivation method of a spiritual master. I want to do this right away, to just leave here and go to study. You don’t have to worry about me, I’m afraid ordinary people are not my opponents in fighting. You can lead the people to the Han tribe in peace.”
After that, Zhang Fei being afraid that Chi would not believe him, took out the letter written by his father and showed it to Chi.
Chi glanced at it and couldn’t help saying. “Son, Xuanbing sect is located in Xuanbing City in the north of the mainland. I’m afraid you won’t be able to get there in a month or two. There is no one to take care of you along the way, I really worry about this.”
After that, Chi’s eyes turned slightly red.
“Uncle Chi, don’t worry, all the way to Xuanbing City is a place ruled by humans, and few monsters dare to come. With my ability, as long as I am careful, there is no problem in protecting myself. Instead, I’m worried about your journey to the Han tribe. There are a lot of demonic beast territories on your route, so you must protect our clansmen.”
Chi still wanted to argue, but seeing Zhang Fei frowning, he knew that Zhang Fei was determined, and he no longer insisted.
Zhang Fei nodded in thanks. “Uncle Chi, everyone must be careful and safe on the road. When you arrive at the Han tribe, hand over the jade ring to Master Guchi. Tell him that I am still alive and the tribe will never perish. Let him treat my sister well. In the future, when Zhang Fei has learnt something, he will definitely come to the Han tribe to greet his sister.”
“I will keep to your words, master Fei.”
After that, Zhang Fei bowed deeply deeply again and said loudly. “Everyone. Zhang Fei is bidding his farewell now, everyone should take care of one another when they go to the Han tribe. One day, Zhang Fei will definitely come to visit everyone.”
Afterwards, Zhang Fei strode away under everyone’s attention. No clan, no relatives, no worries.
