The Ghost of Fog
Chapter 52. Zhang Hongli
Lin Tian stood dumbly looking at the arrival of the mysterious grandfather. He secretly felt admiration for the greatness of this one grandfather. How not? That twenty-man roar that was an average of shrewd people, capable of defeating him in just a few seconds!!
Lin Tian was still standing with a look of admiration to the point that this young man was unaware that all his enemies had already vanished.
Then suddenly the old man said, "Are you okay?"
Hearing this question, as if awakened from a dream, Lin Tian then replied while courting a salute, "I'm fine. Thanks for the help-"
Not finished he said, Lin Tian had already fallen into a fainting state from spitting out too much blood.
"Huh.." the grandfather sighed and shook his head. Then with a smile still engraved on his face, he then carried Lin Tian's body and carried him away from there.
...****************...
"Hnggh...." Lin Tian slightly groaned withstanding the pain in his head when he opened his eyes.
The first sight he saw was a ceiling of a house made of wood. The wood looks old and old.
As soon as he tried to move his head to look around, it turned out that he was lying on a bamboo cot in a room about three by four meters in size.
Next to the couch, there was a small table and on it was a candle that was no longer burning. Not far from the candle, he saw his mask that he had always worn to cover his identity.
Lin Tian then got up from his bed.
"Where am I?" slowly muttered.
Shortly after, from behind the bamboo curtain that was in front of Lin Tian, there appeared an unfamiliar-looking old geezer in his eyes.
"Oh..Have you woken up, son?" said the grandfather who was none other than his helper in the red forest.
Lin Tian who saw his arrival, quickly he dropped down on his knees in front of the person and said,
"Thank you very much for the help of the senior in the forest" said the young man firmly.
The grandfather looked to frown, then said subtly, "So? Hahaha.the truth was yesterday. You've been asleep here for a whole day and a whole night."
Lin Tian was naturally shocked to hear this statement. He did not expect at all if the injuries he suffered could be that severe.
"Here you go, let's eat first. You must be hungry, right? Come with me." without waiting for Lin Tian's reply, this grandfather had already turned his body around and left from there.
Lin Tian who had no other choice also walked behind him.
When he arrived in front of the grandfather's humble mansion, Lin Tian looked around with a feeling of awe and astonishment.
He saw in front of him a lake that was quite large with blue water because it reflected the color of the sky.
On the edge of the lake, there are also small stones of various colors and sizes. Some are big, some are small, some are white or black. Clearly, all of these stones are capable of reflecting the sunlight that shines on them. So, the stones look shiny and beautiful.
Around this simple house, there are many large tall trees whose leaves are red. Lin Tian knew that he was still in the Red Forest.
It turned out that this grandfather had been sitting on a white stone chair, in front of him was a table that was both made of stone but black. On the table, there are many kinds of food and drinks.
Lin Tian walked up to the grandfather and sat down on one of the prepared chairs.
"Do not hesitate, eat" said this grandfather and immediately took one of the foods.
Lin Tian who saw that the host had already eaten the food, he also immediately came to eat. At this time, his stomach feels very hungry.
A few minutes passed and they had already finished all the food. Suddenly Lin Tian asked, "Senior, may I know the big name of this senior who has saved my life?"
The grandfather looked at Lin Tian and then laughed, "Hahaha? What does a big name mean? My name is Zhang Hongli!"
Lin Tian who heard this felt like his heart was almost jumping out. His eyes glared at the grandfather in front of him. Then a second later she cried and prostrated herself before him.
"Eh...eh....What is this?" zhang Hongli asked who was naturally astonished to witness Lin Tian's demeanor.
"Hiks.pardon me leader!! Zhang's family...the Zhang family.hiks...has been destroyed.." said Lin Tian on the sidelines of his cries.
It was silent for a moment after Lin Tian finished his sentence. Then the grandfather said slowly which words made Lin Tian half-dead.
"I already know..."
Due to his shock, this young man then looked up his head and looked at Zhang Heng with a look of disbelief. If you know, why don't you go home and see your grandchildren? Asked Lin Tian inwardly.
"I already knew all that, son." the old man said again, but this time two tears came out of his eyelids.
"If you already know, why not go home and see things there?" finally Lin Tian asked because he could not bear the curiosity in his heart.
"Huh.the story is long. Sit down, I'll tell you everything." replied the grandfather.
"Omomg by the way, what's your name, son? Why do you look so sad about my family's destruction? What is your relationship with the Zhang family?" the grandfather asked me repeatedly as soon as Lin Tian was back in his place.
"My name is Lin Tian Tuan. And my relationship with the Zhang family.I am the personal bodyguard of your granddaughter, young Miss Zhang Qiaofeng." replied Lin Tian in a raucous voice as a result of her crying.
The grandfather looked surprised, then he spontaneously asked, his tone slightly yelling, "What? Then...Where is he now?"
Hearing this question, Lin Tian became dejected, then replied, "I don't know Master, we parted ways while we were escaping from those invaders. Until now, I've been trying to find it but it still hasn't come to fruition."
"That's it, that means, there's a possibility that he's still alive." replied Zhang Hongli who looked a little relieved.
"Well, I'll tell you why I didn't return to the Zhang family back then, and why I suddenly disappeared after one day of the new leader's appointment. Listen carefully..."
...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...
