The Heaven and Earth Dragon Spear

The Memory of Death

Memories of death

Hate vengeance destruction

Just a melody of sadness

Echoing throughout the residence

The Qin governor's residence is so crowded today. A governor who was awarded a second-rate noble and had 300,000 cavalrymen a few hours ago died in a terrible way.

The seven sons of the Qin family's daughters had all gathered together. The puffy face and red eyes were clearly visible from the six daughters of the Qin family, only Qin Guan looked already calm. Maybe her tears are no longer there to be shed.

Not far from where Qin Guan was gathered, Wang Tian Sin was burning Jinzhi (spirit money) for his late adoptive father. After Wang Tian Sin finished doing his respects, the young man approached Qin Guan like he wanted to say something.

Qin Guan, who felt that Wang Tian Sin wanted to talk to him, coded his brother out of the respect room. Wang Tian Sin walked hand in hand with Qin Guan towards the backyard of the Qin residence, entering a gazebo that looked simple but still spoiled the eyes.

In contrast to the atmosphere in the main hall, the backyard of the Qin residence was so quiet because it was located far behind the residence and not just anyone could enter this region.

A round table made of stone surrounded by four stone chairs was aimed at by Qin Guan. After the young man filled one of the seats, Wang Tian Sin sat across from Qin Guan.

Qin Guan took a deep breath, then let out a classic question that came out of his mind. "What's wrong?"

"Ge .. I'm going to Long Hong Mountain today. I hope Guan Gege doesn't mind" said Wang Tian Sin.

Qin Guan again sighed until white smoke came out of his mouth. The young man turned his face away because he did not want to see the brother's merciful gaze. "That's your decision, banning won't be useful at a time like this."

Wang Tian Sin smiled and covered both of his hands, saluting Qin Guan. "Thank you, Gege. After three months of mourning, I will travel the martial world."

Qin Guan again could only nod.

"If I were as free as you, I would have wandered too. However, Father left behind a stack of tasks that I had to complete and it was unlikely to end any time soon" Qin Guan said.

Wang Tian Sin smiled, his right hand crept up and clasped Qin Guan's left hand clenched on the table. "Our paths are different, Gege. I'm leaving a myriad of responsibilities to you because I believe you're capable."

Qin Guan nodded, his heart now calmer than before. "Thank you, Xiao Tian. Send a letter often and stop by if you have time."

These two brothers-bound youths returned to the main hall after nothing else to discuss. Qin Guan orders two dozen warriors to escort his sister to Long Hong mountain. Before leaving, Wang Tian Sin took the time to meet his six sisters to say hello and say goodbye.

"Hopefully Jie jie and Gege are given a long life" Wang Tian Sin said before leaving the Qin residence.

"May Xiao Di Di be given a long life" replied Qin's seven children simultaneously.

Wang Tian Sin left the Qin residence along with two dozen guards and one young officer named Di Min Jie. They walked towards the west, precisely the Qin city gate. Along the streets of Qin city were filled with death pennants of mourning marks. Citizens also do not have much activity because they carry out mourning.

Half an hour later they had already exited Qin city and started down the path in the middle of the meadow before entering the lush forest.

Di Min Jie rode beside Wang Tian Sin. Long Tian's coffin was carried using a carriage that was heavily guarded by a dozen warriors on his left right. So far there is no chat they do until the trip feels boring. It was past noon but Wang Tian Sin had not ordered to stop yet, Di Min Jie decided to open the chat. "Young Master, we will arrive in Qianzhou region in the afternoon. But to enter the city we need until late at night."

"Supplied?" wang Tian Sin asked without looking at Di Ming Jie.

Di Min Jie nodded, "there is quite a gentle meadow and it is suitable to build a tent not far from Qianzhou, at sunset we will arrive at that place if there are no obstacles."

"Well, Young Master." replied Di Min Jie.

There are no obstacles that stand in the way of their journey. Just like what Di Min Jie said, by sunset their group had already arrived at the sloping grassland. Di Min Jie chose a place by the lake to set up a tent and Wang Tian Sin did not protest because he saw the place was quite strategic.

Some soldiers built tents, others set up campfires and fed horses and checked supplies.

Wang Tian Sin stood by the beautiful lake. The calm ripples of the lake water made his mood slightly improve but was unable to bring up a smile on his lips. His head looked up, his eyes closed enjoying the cold wind that was hitting his face. A few strands of her hair that were not shaken danced as the wind shook her.

Breathing in a deep breath, letting it out slowly, Wang Tian Sin felt the burden in his heart lift up slightly. Granules of snow fell from the sky, some of them clinging to Wang Tian Sin's robe and hair. Feeling the cold start to creep and stab at the bone, Wang Tian Sin tightened his open fur coat, making his body now feel warmer.

"Young Master." A voice sounded from beside Wang Tian Sin. The silver-armored youth stood firm while commenting on the thin smile on his lips. His left hand could not escape from the handle of the sword sheathed on his waist.

Wang Tian Sin turned his head, "what's the matter?"

"Outside the air is so cold, it's best for Young Master to rest inside the tent," Di Min Jie replied.

Wang Tian Sin shook his head, "I still want to be here. The view is so good, it's enough to make my heart calm."

"If it's like that, let me accompany Young Master here." a moment of silence, Di Min Jie again made a sound. "Young Master, may I say something?"

Wang Tian Sin nodded, his eyes still staring far ahead "say me."

Di Min Jie moved up and now stood beside Wang Tian Sin. "Before I became a young officer, I was just a thief. Ten years ago, I mistakenly picked a target for pickpocketing the undercover governor of Qin in the Qin suburb. Do you know what Governor Qin did?"

Wang Tian Sin shook his head. Di Min Jie resumed her story. "After I was caught, Governor Qin did not punish me, and instead put me into his military camp."

Wang Tian Sin frowned, "Dad didn't punish you?"

Di Ming Jie shook his head. Wang Tian Sin stared into Di Ming Jie's eyes, and he realized that there was a deep sadness that the young man was feeling. "After learning that I stole to support three younger brothers, Governor Qin provided assistance to my younger brothers. At that time I was only 15 years old, getting into hard training to become a Qin warrior. At first I thought if Governor Qin wanted to take advantage of me, but once I graduated, he asked me to take care of Qin who he loved so much, never let Qin fall." At Ming Jie pausing his sentence, the young man took a breath and exhaled slowly. "I used to promise to keep Governor Qin with my life, but now I don't even have the duty to guard his tomb."

"You regret escorting me to Long Hong Mountain?" wang Tian Sin asked.

Di Ming Jie who realized that his last sentence might offend Wang Tian Sin immediately knelt down. "No, not at all, Young Master."

"The Qin city is not too far away. If you ride non-stop, before sunrise you'll be there. I don't want to put a burden on anyone" Wang Tian Sin said.

"I don't dare! I deserve to be punished for offending Young Master. Please Young Master give a punishment!" said Di Ming Jie.

Wang Tian Sin shook his head. "no need. I'm not doing anything. When you get home from Long Hong Mountain later, I'll send a letter to Guan Gege to assign you to guard father's grave."

"Thank you, young master. Thank you!"

Unable to see Di Ming Jie who kept kneeling, Wang Tian Sin helped Di Ming Jie up. As Wang Tian Sin's two hands held onto Di Ming Jie's arms, suddenly the young man felt his chest hurt so much as if his heart was being squeezed.

Di Ming Jie saw Wang Tian Sin's two eyebrows frowning. "Young Master, are you okay?"

"I'm .. okay sa-"
