"Big brother, do you think my writing is nice?" Xiao Rui ran up to Xue An excitedly, carefully holding a piece of paper in her hand.
On the paper were three large characters.
Qian Xirui.
Xue An picked it up and looked at it carefully, "Not bad!"
"Really?" Xiao Rui’s eyes shone with joy.
Xue An nodded and smiled: "You’ve only been learning for a few days, and to be able to write like this is indeed very impressive!"
In the past few days, Xue An taught the children in his spare time how to write.
Among them, Xiao Rui had made the fastest progress.
Within just a few days, she could skillfully write many characters, the best-written being the name Xue An had given her.
Receiving praise from Xue An, Xiao Rui smiled even more happily, "My mom, after seeing my written name, was so happy that she burst into tears, and said that we must thank you properly, big brother!"
Xue An smiled but said nothing.
During this time, his relationship with the town’s residents had grown increasingly harmonious.
Especially Xiao Rui’s mother, out of gratitude for Xue An’s care for the children, often brought over some food she made herself.
Xue An did not refuse it.
Because in this period, there were more than a few people who brought him food, among them were shy young girls who secretly came over and left homemade snacks at his doorstep.
However, Xue An did not give these snacks much thought after receiving them, as he would distribute them directly to the children.
If not for this approach, it is probable that some might have come knocking on his door with marriage proposals.
Meanwhile.
Inside the Vermilion Tower.
Xing Yuhe used the last of his strength to finally say all that needed to be told to Xing Yushu.
Then he lay weakly on the bed, his complexion not pale but abnormally flushed with a hint of crimson.
Xing Yushu’s heart slowly sank because he clearly understood that once this symptom appeared, it meant his grandfather was nearing his last breath.
This made him shiver, tears glistening in his eyes.
"Grandfather...."
Xing Yuhe waved his hand gently, then a faint smile appeared on his lips, "I’m fine, I can hold on for a while longer! Did you... remember everything I said before?"
Xing Yushu nodded vigorously, voice trembling, "I remember!"
"Good! Remember, after I die, leave as I told you and don’t linger, understand?"
"Yes... Yes! But if I leave, what will happen to Demon-Sealing Town?" Xing Yushu asked tremblingly.
A bitter smile crossed Xing Yuhe’s face.
"This Demon-Sealing Town sheltered us, and in return, we protected it for so many years, but now I can’t hold on anymore! A few days ago, I finished repairing the Talisman Spells; under normal circumstances, they should continue to protect Demon-Sealing Town for another ten years. After ten years, you should have achieved something, then return here for a visit! After all, you can’t be confined here for your whole life!"
Hearing this, Xing Yushu could only bow his head.
In his short life of just over a decade, Demon-Sealing Town held an extremely important place.
The luxurious worry-free life of his childhood had grown faint due to his tender age at the time.
Only this Demon-Sealing Town, which occupied most of his youthful years, became his second hometown.
That’s why he found it so hard to leave.
Naturally, Xing Yuhe understood all this and couldn’t help but extend his arm, now as thin and dry as a withered branch, gently touching his cheek, whispering softly.
