Divine Light Warrior

When they arrived here, everyone knew that they were close to the capital of Qin. However, the scene that came into view was jaw-dropping - this once prosperous village was almost reduced to ruins! It turned out that those hateful conscripts and forced laborers had extended their claws to this place and trampled on this land wantonly. They treated so many innocent people so cruelly just to drive them to build the world-famous Great Wall. The once bustling and vibrant village is now completely unrecognizable and devastated, with only a few elderly people and children lingering. Even male and female prisoners in the prison were not spared and were all taken to the front line to participate in the construction.

The construction of the Great Wall was like a brutal war. The men carried heavy stones on their backs and piled them up with difficulty. The women below were responsible for cooking and barely making a living. Even though they were working for the country, they were severely short of food and water. In such a situation, how could they talk about "serving the country and the people"? When did the country ever regard them as real citizens? They were simply treated like cattle and horses and driven at will!

At this critical moment, an old lady with a haggard face and a hunched body walked slowly, and her trembling voice echoed in the air: "My son! Are you finally back? How can you be so cruel and ignore your mother at all? You have been away from home for so long, why don't you come back to visit your mother! It has been so many years..." At this point, the old lady couldn't help but burst into tears, and tears poured out like a flood.

"My eyes have been nearly blinded by crying. Where are you? Whenever I heard that a stranger had returned, I was filled with joy and thought it was you. My child, please come quickly so that I can take a good look at you. I really miss you so much! I know that I don't have much time left in this world. I only hope that you can come and see me for the last time. Can you fulfill my last wish?" When Li Kaiyang and others heard these words, they felt as if they were hit hard by a heavy hammer and were in great pain. They never expected that such a cruel thing would happen right under their noses. However, facing this situation, they were helpless and powerless.

Looking at the miserable and sad appearance of the old lady, Li Kaiyang finally couldn't hold back his inner grief and couldn't help shouting: "Mom! I'm here, my son is back!" His voice was hoarse and full of affection, as if he wanted to put all his thoughts and guilt for his mother into it. This shout not only shocked the hearts of everyone present, but also stunned the old lady who was desperately looking for her son.

This lady may be so old that she is a little out of her mind! Could it be that she can't even distinguish the voice of her own son? When she heard Li Kaiyang's voice, she thought without hesitation that it was her beloved son. So, the lady hurriedly followed her son's cry and trotted all the way to Li Kaiyang and others. Then, she opened her voice and shouted: "Where is my son? Where is my son! I clearly heard my son calling my mother just now, but now there is no trace of him. Where is he? Let me take a look quickly, I must see with my own eyes that my son is safe and sound! Don't stop me, get out of the way!"

In fact, Li Taiyang was standing next to the old lady at the moment, but for some reason, the old lady did not notice his presence. She was still very anxious and wanted to see her baby son as soon as possible. Li Kaiyang saw this and quickly reached out to hold the old lady's arm tightly, and whispered to comfort her: "Mom, don't worry, I'm here. You have been talking about wanting to see your son..."

The development of things is often full of dramatic and unexpected turns. Originally, people thought that the matter would simply end with him comforting the old lady, but the reality was completely beyond people's expectations. Who would have thought that the old lady actually took the comfort seriously and was so persistent and unwilling to give up! She held Lu Kaiyang's hand tightly, as if she was afraid that he would disappear if she let go, and insisted on taking him home.

At this moment, Lu Kaiyang secretly complained in his heart: "Oh, I'm so busy now! How can I have time to accompany you? I just agreed to it casually because I felt sorry for you. How can you be so serious?" However, at this point, the situation has been out of control. Although Li Kaiyang repeatedly explained that he was not the son she thought, the old lady seemed to turn a deaf ear to him and only wanted him to follow her home.

Faced with this embarrassing and helpless situation, Lv Kaiyang felt both angry and amused. He couldn't help but mutter in his heart: "This is simply too ridiculous! I have nothing to do with you, but you insist on recognizing me as your son. This is really ridiculous. Just because I said a few words of comfort, do I have to bear such an inexplicable responsibility?" But no matter what, the current situation is difficult to change. Lv Kaiyang can only put aside the affairs at hand for the time being and find a way to deal with this sudden problem...

Li Kaiyang stared at the wrinkled yet extremely kind face of the old man in front of him, listening to his sad and earnest words gradually fading away, and a soft ripple appeared in his heart. At this moment, he thought to himself: "Whether I am really his biological child or not, since fate has arranged it this way, let me play the role of this son wholeheartedly!" After making up his mind, Kaiyang nodded resolutely and agreed, and told himself firmly: "I must comfort him well, give him spiritual comfort, and let him enjoy a carefree, happy and satisfying old age." So, Li Kaiyang responded without hesitation and firmly: "Okay, Mom! I will go home with you. I just don't know if you have a few good friends like me who are sons in your family? You might as well call them to go together, so that we can take care of each other. By the way, may I ask where our home is? How can I bring you home safely?" After that, Kaiyang looked at the old man with burning eyes, his eyes full of concern.

The old man's face, which was originally full of wrinkles and slightly gray, gradually glowed with a faint light, as if it was injected with a mysterious vitality. And at the moment when he tightly held Li Kaiyang's hands, his whole body seemed to exude a vigorous breath, as if he was reborn. At this moment, people can clearly feel that once the joy in their hearts surges into their hearts, it will be shown on their faces without reservation. However, no one knows whether the old man can witness all this with his own eyes. But his tightly holding Li Kaiyang's hand and looking up and looking around give people the illusion that he seems to be able to see the world around him clearly. Unfortunately, the cruel reality is in front of him-his eyes have long been blind and can no longer capture any light and color. Faced with such a heartbreaking scene, Li Kaiyang really couldn't squeeze out a smile. So, he nodded solemnly, and then moved slowly and hard, step by step towards his dormitory...

The old man's current situation is really heartbreaking. Every time he sees it, his heart tightens a little. His vision of a better life becomes stronger, and when he looks at Li Kaiyang with joy, the latter's suffering also deepens. Just because Li Kaiyang is not his own flesh and blood! He mistakenly holds Li Haiyang's hand as holding his beloved son's hand, but the fact is totally wrong - Li Haiyang is just an outsider, a person who has nothing to do with him, and he is just full of pity and sympathy for this poor old man.

The old man's face would never lie. He was filled with joy, as if he had really seen his son again after a long absence. Unfortunately, he didn't realize that the hand he was holding was not his own, but Li Kaiyang's. Li Kaiyao hugged the old man tightly, tears streaming down his face. This scene made the old man believe without a doubt: the person in front of him was undoubtedly his own child!

Perhaps, the old man had not smiled for many years, but today, he finally smiled. That smile was so brilliant and dazzling, just like the warm spring sun, refreshing summer breeze, sweet autumn fruits, and soothing winter fire. Such a smile really makes people intoxicated and unable to extricate themselves.

The old man held Li Kaiyang's hand tightly, and his attitude was extremely firm. He had to take him back to his home. It seemed that only by doing so could he make the other person feel the warmth and kindness of home. Li Kaiyang, on the other hand, was extremely obedient and cooperative, as if he had already seen through the old man's deep desire.

In this way, the old man held Li Kaiyang's hand and walked slowly forward, while Li Kaiyang followed closely behind him and carefully supported the elderly and frail old man. The scene was like a close father and son, which was very touching.

At this moment, many white-haired old people walked out of the village one after another. When they saw this scene, they couldn't help but cry. Maybe it was because the old man's lonely and helpless appearance touched the softest corner of their hearts? Or maybe it was because of the feeling of the hardship of life...

Looking around, people of all kinds stood on both sides of the road: there were innocent children, weathered old men, and several disabled young people, who must have survived the disaster because of their physical defects. It can be said that it was thanks to these strong and unyielding people that the village was able to maintain its operation, clean up the environment and take care of it on a daily basis, and they also silently hoped that their lost relatives would return home and reunite soon.

Li Kaiyang had just escorted the elderly man home safely. When he was about to turn around and leave, he found that the old man was holding his hand tightly, as if he had something to say or needed his help to deal with something else. Faced with this situation, Li Kaiyang really couldn't break free of the old man's hand and leave directly, so he had to follow the old man into the house to see what was going on.

As soon as he entered the yard, Li Kaiyang noticed that the yard was not very large, but it looked neat and tidy overall. He was particularly pleased that there was no house being forcibly knocked down, and everything was relatively intact. However, after a closer look, he found that even if it was not destroyed, the old man's residence was actually quite simple - there were only three small houses in total. Perhaps one of them was for the old man's son to live in, and the other was for the old man himself, and the space between the two rooms should be where the stove for cooking was located.

With such speculation, Li Kaiyang continued to walk into the house. As expected, when they entered the house, what they saw was just as expected: the room facing the door belonged to the old man's son; and the room where the old man was lying down to rest was obviously his own bedroom. As for whether other family members or relatives had other places to live, it was unknown...

Although the old man was blind, surprisingly, the house was tidy and spotless. Especially his son's room, although the bed was a little worn out and the furniture was old, every corner exuded a clean and warm atmosphere. Stepping into it, it felt like being in a warm embrace, which made people feel emotional.

This scene made Li Kaiyang think of his beloved mother. When he was young, his mother always cared for him meticulously, giving him endless warmth and care. However, fate was so cruel and ruthless that his mother was killed by the evil spirit. To this day, Li Kaiyang has not been able to avenge his mother. Whenever he thinks of this, he feels an indescribable sense of guilt. With tears blurring his eyes, he secretly vowed to bring the evil spirit to justice to comfort his mother's soul in heaven.

The moment the old man held Li Kaiyang's hand tightly and stepped into the house, he never let go. It seemed that if he let go, this precious son in front of him would disappear like smoke without a trace. Li Kaiyang seemed to understand his father's fear and anxiety at the moment, and willingly let the rough and calloused palm hold him tightly. For him, if this insignificant pair of hands could give this vicissitudes of life old man some spiritual comfort, then it would be worth it even if it delayed him for a long time.

However, fate always likes to play tricks on people. Although Li Kaiyang tried his best to conceal the truth, the careful old man finally discovered the clues - it turned out that his real son was born with only nine fingers, one of which was missing due to congenital disability. But now, when the old man carefully stroked the palm of his "son", he was shocked to find that there was an extra intact finger! In an instant, a chill like falling into an ice cellar surged from the bottom of his heart and instantly spread to every corner of his body. The eyes that were originally full of hope gradually dimmed, replaced by endless despair and sadness.

After a long silence, the old man asked the strange young man in front of him with trembling lips in an almost pleading tone: "My good boy... who are you? Why do you pretend to be my long-lost son to deceive my already broken heart..." His words were filled with unspeakable pain and disappointment.
