The end of Today

"If that's the case then thank goodness, I was afraid the cattle would be destroyed"

Lin Xiong's grandfather said.

"It's true what brother Lin Xiong said, if there were no sheep then we wouldn't be able to make clothes anymore"

Grandma Shang Wei added.

"Then obviously the sheep and cows will be in a dangerous situation"

said Lin Xiong's grandfather.

"Huang Gu, tomorrow you ask some hunting lodge men to patrol around the edge of the border forest, look for clues or anything related to it, we don't want to disappoint the ancestral destiny just because Wu Jin Fei got hit by this bear"

Ming Qi grandfather said.

"Take it easy, even without you telling me, I will do it"

Huang Gu's grandfather replied.

"Ladies and gentlemen, if there are no other important matters, I will take my leave"

said grandma Shang Wei wanting to leave.

"Alright"

replied the three of them.

A moment after Shang Wei's grandmother went out, Lin Xiong interrupted the scene.

"Ahh it looks like I'm leaving too, I have to take care of my daughter at home"

said Lin Xiong's grandfather.

"Alright, please go"

replied Ming Qi's grandfather.

The two of them saw Lin Xiong's grandfather come out and the two of them turned to land a glance at each other.

"Hohoho is brother Huang Gu want also leaving?"

"hmm, I don't want to go yet, honestly what are you worried about?, you can't fool me, although I am old but I obviously know you very closely"

"Well, it seems that I can't cover it up in front of Brother Huang Gu"

"It's obvious hmm"

"This Wu Jin Fei reminds me of my old friend when I was young"

"ohh him?, you mean Bai Hao Jian, yes he is indeed great, those cultivators have a longer life than us"

"Yes you are right, the outside world is a very possible place to become a cultivator and start cultivation"

"Hmm you're right, Ming Qi? Don't tell me you want to tell your grandson to leave the village?"

Asked Huang Gu's grandfather clearly as he saw the complicated expression on Ming Qi's grandfather's face.

"You're right, Wu Liang is a pretty unique kid compared to others, I don't think this village is the final place for him"

"Hmm you really think broadly brother Ming Qi, you really are a good grandfather"

"Hohoho really, it's obvious"

"But don't think too high, we don't know if the river of destiny will take it in the direction we want or not"

"Brother Huang Gu has a point"

"Take it easy, I will support you, because we are family"

"this Wu Jin Fei matter, since it's been a hundred years since he left, has he met the opportunity?"

"We obviously won't know until he shows up himself"

"I honestly have a bad feeling about this"

"What does that mean? Try explaining brother Ming Qi."

"I don't know exactly how to describe this feeling, I'm old, obviously I'm not very good at explaining it"

"Hmm anyway try to be kind, it could be that your hunch is wrong"

"I hope so, I also hope that Wu Jin Fei still returns to the village"

"Take it easy, although he is a little brash, but his soul and mind were born here, he must be very homesick and happy when he meets his parents.

"Well, I can't be too suspicious, let's hope Wu Jin Fei comes back as an extraordinary person"

"Hmm that's the new Brother Ming Qi I know"

The two rose to their feet then and together exited the Wu tribe's meeting hall, leaving the moonlight bowl artifact alone shining in the darkness of the simple empty room.

Some time later the Wu tribe had now finished its small feast, some of the Wu tribe returned early, while others cleaned and packed up the leftovers from other parts of the Wu tribe.

Wu Liang and Ao Nan have returned to their respective places now, Wu Liang and his sister are waiting for Ming Qi's grandfather to return home.

Shan Yu is seen sitting on the Ming family dining chair eating a small piece of bread, while Wu Liang is in his room, he is practicing writing quickly and neatly using a blank book taken from his grandfather's storage box, in the box there are many personal belongings of Ming Qi's grandfather, inside it also holds many treasures that will not be found in the Wu tribe.

Wu Liang is now writing using a writing instrument, with a pen made from pine tree wood with a specially pointed tip, and ink made from a special artifact of the Wu tribe.

The name of the artifact is the dye ink pot, it is a small ordinary gray porcelain pot-shaped tool, the way to use it is also simple, just put water in it, and mix any object into it to extract the color.

For example, now Wu Liang is writing using dark brown ink, then Wu Liang just needs to take any clean water, then put in the dark brown soil, the water that enters the teapot will transform into transparent ink and then just add any object, then this transparent ink will actively crush any solid object and extract the dominant color of the object.

"Grandpa's home..."

Ming Qi's grandfather called from outside, he stepped forward into the house while putting his footwear back on the footwear rack next to the front door of the house.

"Grandpa, please eat"

"Where's Wu Liang?"

"He's writing"

"hohoho, your brother is really diligent"

Ming Qi's grandfather praised, his laughter could be heard by Wu Liang who was writing.

Ming Qi's grandfather then put a set of fleece clothes for warmth on the clothes hanger on the left side of his living room, then he walked forward to sit on the dining chair.

"Grandpa, eat this"

"ohh is this the bear brain?"

A piece of bear brain was a little mushy and a little watery, and the smell of burning was obvious, Ming Qi's grandfather then cut off some of the brain and put it on his plate, while returning to take a spoonful of sweet honey for flavor.

"Yes, eat it, Shan Yu already ate it earlier"

"Invite Wu Liang to eat with you"

"Shan Yu did, but he said he didn't want to eat this"

"Your brother is quite unique, even though this bear brain can increase people's intelligence hohoho"

"Grandpa eat it Shan Yu will sleep first"

"Okay"

Shan Yu got up after finishing her share of bread and went to her room.

Grandpa Ming Qi ate greedily the bear brain mixed with bread and honey, after which he packed up and piled the dirty wooden dishes into the back corner of the house, because tomorrow morning it would be washed by Shan Yu.

Grandpa Ming Qi walked slowly to the face of Wu Liang's bedroom door which was close to the entrance of the house, Grandpa Ming Qi slowly approached Wu Liang who was focused on writing under the light of the moonlight bowl artifact.

"Hohoho Wu Liang, you're really good"

Grandpa Ming Qi's laughter startled Wu Liang.

"Grandpa, what's wrong?"

"There is nothing wrong, I just want to see you."

"Grandpa, to be honest, it's impossible for you to do such a trivial thing at bedtime"

"Hohoho, my grandson has grown up, yes, to be honest, Wu Liang, have you ever dreamed of traveling outside?"

"Yes, Grandpa"

"Hohoho frankly speaking, grandpa likes this, you should start some exercises and practicing tomorrow"

"Grandpa don't worry, Liang'er and Ao Nan have also talked about this, tomorrow morning we will start training"

"You guys are the best, I'm proud of you all."

"uh Grandpa, you should have said that when Ao Nan was also here"

"It's okay Liang'er"

"W-well"

"hoo, your attitude just now also please improve, by the way what about the storybook that I gave you?"

"ohh this, I will continue reading it tomorrow"

"good good, read it well, if someday maybe you get the chance you will be a good spokesman if you explore outside the village".

"Spokesperson? What is that?"

"You don't know?"

"I obviously don't know, so please explain"

"Hmm, an interpreter is a profession, while a spokesperson is just like us, talking normally"

"Huh? Is that so, Grandpa? Do people outside can't speak so they need a spokesperson?"

"hohoho Wu Liang that's not what it means, but rather a spokesperson represents a person, group, or organization to convey ideas, ideas, or rules that apply"

"But that still doesn't answer my question, whether the person being represented can speak or not"

"Huh, you better find out for yourself later, remember not to sleep too late"

"Alright Grandpa, I'll sleep in a while"

"Yeah yeah, grandpa is leaving first"

"Ng, good night grandpa"

Grandpa Ming Qi walked towards his bed which was behind where Wu Liang was, his bed was in the same room as Wu Liang's bed, only it was on the other side, Wu Liang's room was small, only a few steps away, this room was filled with two beds, clothes hangers, and Wu Liang's study table, Wu Liang also studied using one of the few artifacts of the moonlight water light bowl as a means of lighting.

Although the cold air came in, but just to Wu Liang's right, on the edge of the wall was a small fireplace, every fireplace in the Wu tribe smeared forest honey on their fireplace walls as a protection so that the fire did not spread to the wood, this unique property of Honey helped the Wu tribe people solve all the problems in it.

This warm fireplace emits warm air, replacing the cold air outside the room, a few moments later Wu Liang closed his book and stored his stationery in a kind of bowl to store stationery, he gave more wood to the fireplace then cleaned his hands by rubbing each other, then walked to his bed to sleep, he saw Ming Qi's grandfather had slept first.

In the process of Wu Liang's sleep, he replayed today's events, from waking up with his grandfather and brother beside him, then being visited by Ao Nan, then reading the book given by his grandfather, then dissecting the contents of the book, then leaving the health center, then joining the Wu tribe's small party for celebrating today's abundant meat harvest, then planning Wu Liang's training in preparation for his future, returning home after two days in the health center.

"huhh, what a day full of activities, I want to say full too, I want to say no but I also feel busy, will there be a better day than today? In the future? The future? The future, I still haven't decided on my future, will I just stay here and enjoy life like other uncles, or follow my heart to go out to explore out there, by the way, what about dad? Is dad like this too? Dad, please answer your son during the ceremony, I want you to give me a little answer to my question, did you want to go out or just stay in? Dad your son is now improving himself to be better, oh dad I am also curious about how mom is doing, if mom is still around now, what words will she say when she hears that I am planning to leave the village and explore this world, but I feel and it is clear from this feeling that mom and dad will be very proud of me, mom and dad I really miss you, please during the ceremony later you give a little answer to my question"

Wu Liang mumbled softly while closing his eyes, slowly sinking into his mumbling then stopped and daydreamed, and finally fell asleep, his tears dripped once from the corner of his eyes, and he finally fell asleep for today.

Now, in the village of the Wu tribe, everything was already resting quietly, a dark village, a village that began to be shrouded in fog, a village that only left the fire of the fireplace smoke soaring upwards, coming out of its funnel.

The streets were quiet, the cold air was blowing, the livestock were also sleeping in their sleep, they slept on wheat straw that was deliberately piled up as a mattress, the wheat farm also swayed softly in the cold wind from the border pine forest, the dense and fertile wheat bundles danced in the middle of the night bathed in the dim moonlight.
