568 Can’t Send Them Off
“Master, Little Niu and Uncle-Master Niu have already left. Do you know?”
Su Xiaolu asked curiously.
Old Wu was a little helpless. “Why aren’t you asleep?”
Old Wu seemed to have thought of something. His expression was solemn. “Girl, did you send them off?”!!
Su Xiaolu felt that something was wrong. She nodded truthfully. “Yes, I even gave them something.”
Old Wu frowned. “Girl, next time you know that they’re leaving, you don’t have to send them off or give them anything. Even if you do, they won’t be able to keep them. Giving them away is also sending trouble. Their lives are different.”
Su Xiaolu felt a little uncomfortable. “Why is it different? They’re human too.”
Why did they have to suffer like this after learning some things?
Gui You said in a deep voice, “Don’t worry, Elder Niu will settle it properly.”
Old Wu reached out and rubbed Su Xiaolu’s hair. “Let’s go back to the house. Master will explain to you.”
After returning to the house, Old Wu said slowly, “There are many mysteries in this world. Ordinary people won’t suffer from that. Those who walk that path are people with ill fates. What they learn is exchanged with the heavens. The five ills and three shortcomings are irreversible. Their abilities are extraordinary and can stir the fate of the country. Even officials and nobles have to treat them as distinguished guests because the world is godless. They are gods.”
“Some people can ask an expert to change their fate after suffering for their entire lives. Doing such a thing is defying the heavens. If they defy the heavens, they will be punished. No one in the mortal world suppresses them, so it’s the Heavenly Dao that suppresses them.”
“They can do evil, but they can also do good and accumulate good karma. Your Uncle-Master Niu is destined to starve and freeze for the rest of his life. Sending him off will only bring him trouble. We haven’t known each other for long, and I didn’t have the time to explain it to you. He accepted your kindness, so he naturally has a way to resolve it. You don’t have to think too much about this matter. You just have to remember that the next time we meet, don’t do anything when they are leaving.”
Old Wu said these words earnestly. As a good friend, he could take care of Elder Niu for the rest of his life, but he should not. Everyone’s lives were different. Everyone only enjoyed themselves when they were together.
If he said it today, Su Xiaolu would understand in the future.
“Master, but Uncle-Master Niu didn’t do anything evil.”
Su Xiaolu was puzzled. Both Elder Niu and Little Niu were very gentle.
However, such people had bitter fates.
Old Wu stroked his beard. “Girl, some people are born to suffer. Your Uncle-Master Niu is not a bad person. That’s why he could live for so long. Otherwise, he would have died long ago. He has five ills and three shortcomings in his life. He is poor and sick, so he learned this skill and survived.”
Being able to survive until now was also a sign of accumulating merit.
Su Xiaolu did not understand. Fate was profound, to begin with, so it was normal for her not to understand. She smiled and said, “Then I’ll treat them to delicious food next time.”
The next time they met, she would treat Xiao Niu to more delicious food.
Su Xiaolu thought of the things she had given them and was a little worried. “Master, then the things I gave…”
Old Wu waved his hand. “It’s fine. He’ll handle it properly. That old man has a long life.”
Since he could accept it, he had his own way.
Only then did Su Xiaolu feel relieved.

Elder Niu waited until he was far away before sighing. “Son, why did you make Master accept it? Master’s old bones can’t withstand torture.”
Little Niu pursed his lips and said embarrassedly, “Senior Sister is very good. I can’t bear to reject her. I’m sorry, Master.”
Elder Niu stroked Little Niu’s hair. “How long have you known each other? You call her Senior Sister so nicely. Even if she’s good, how can she be better than Master?”
Little Niu hurriedly shook his head. Master was naturally the best in the world.
Elder Niu smiled and hummed a tune as he brought Little Niu out of the city.
Elder Niu’s eyes lit up when he saw a wandering and begging figure in the distance. He brought Little Niu over.
Little Niu helped the old man up and hurriedly gave him some water. He asked gently, “Mister, how are you?”
The old beggar was just hungry and tired.
After drinking some water, he calmed down and said with tears streaming down his face, “Thank you, I’m fine. I’m just tired and hungry.”
Elder Niu took off his coat and gently tore open a hole. “Old man, this is made of fish wool. Take it and soak it in water.”
The old beggar was very shocked and touched. He sized up Little Niu and Elder Niu and couldn’t bear to say, “You don’t look any better than me. If I take it, what will you do? I… I can’t accept this.”
Elder Niu smiled. “Old man, we have our own way of survival. This good thing doesn’t belong to us to begin with. Now that we’ve met you, it means that it should be yours.”
“Son, let’s go.”
Elder Niu covered the old beggar with his clothes and left with Little Niu without looking back.
The old beggar trembled as he wrapped his clothes tightly around himself. He gently bit off a corner of the inner part and bowed to Elder Niu and Little Niu as he chewed.

Su Xiaolu was leaving, so she went to An Lie’s house to tell him.
An Lie had already settled down at home. Hearing that Su Xiaolu came to say goodbye, An Lie knelt down and kowtowed. “Master, I want to go with you. Can you bring me along?”
Su Xiaolu looked at An Lie. An Lie acknowledged her as his Master from the bottom of his heart, so his tone and actions were as careful as a young disciple.
Su Xiaolu said seriously, “An Lie, I can’t bring you there. Your hometown is a good place. You can continue to thrive here. Your uncle and your family need you very much. I’ll write to you in the future. Besides, you have to help me manage the sea area.”
On the surface of the sea was a treasure island. Even if she left here, she could not let go of this treasure island.
An Lie was a little disappointed. He wanted to follow Su Xiaolu out to see the world.
However, after Su Xiaolu’s words, he knew that he had more important things to do. He said solemnly to Su Xiaosu, “Master, don’t worry. I will definitely manage your sea area well.”
Su Xiaolu nodded. “I came here for this. Let me give you something. This is the way to capture arowana and extract spiritual liquid and pills from it. It’s very simple. As long as you have hands, you’ll be fine. When the time comes, take half of it and get someone to send the other half to the capital. I’ve written down the way to catch other fish.”
An Lie took it and agreed solemnly.
Su Xiaolu looked at An Lie and An Cheng and said seriously, “When you go out to sea, you have to be careful. Be it the big Kun or Sea Kun, hide if you can. Don’t be stupid and rash, understand?”
An Cheng touched his nose and smiled at Su Xiaolu. “Miss Su, can I exchange my pills for the pills of other species in your hands when the time comes?”
This arowana and sea area seemed to have reached saturation. The effect of the sea was not enough, but An Cheng still wanted to try the ones on land.
Su Xiaolu nodded. “If their values are equal, we can exchange.”
