CHAPTER 26: THE CHANGE IN THE DIFFERENT SEASONS PART 2
Almost a year had passed, Adrian spent a lot of time inside the northern part of the forbidden city.
However, at that time, he missed Grandpa's house, even a little bit of the Young and Greedy Ma.
Now she had finally seen him again.
But, this time, he was being cornered by four guards around him.
They all radiated a dangerous aura, the strongest of them gave off the aura of the sixth level of Qi condensation.
Adrián approached while listening to the screams of the guards.
"Can't you complete a simple order, maybe you want to lose your mind!"
"If you can't prove your worth, then we'll sell you like an organ sack!"
Hearing this, Young Ma wanted to say something, but the guard kicked him in the face, breaking his bones and voting him away.
"Leave him alive, after all, he's just a slave, but a homeless one"
"HAHAHAHA! He's just someone without the courage to kill him!"
As the guards left, they threw a pill towards Young Ma.
Young Ma grabbed the pill, although his face was swollen, he gripped the pill tightly.
He had spent a lot of time living this way, after that day, he didn't have the courage to return to the house.
In addition, he regretted it.
After taking the pill, he fainted in that spot.
Adrian approached slowly, people didn't seem to care, as he didn't bring anything of value.
This place was a long way from home.
After thinking about it, Adrian carried his older brother Ma, carried him on his back, although he was much bigger, he was not as heavy as Adrian believed.
"Time to go home" – he said to himself, as he walked straight to the ranch.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
He had spent a lot of time at the ranch, or so it seemed.
Now the animals were fed by Grandpa, it seemed that he had gotten much older than before.
His eyes showed a solemn look, his aura had become a little weak, he was no longer as strong as before.
While feeding the animals.
Suddenly I hear a noise from the side of the forest.
He didn't care about me, he could be a lost animal like many times.
The truth was that he just wanted to be at peace, at home.
However, the next moment, he heard footsteps, while he heard a voice, which he thought he would never hear again.
"I'm back, Grandpa"
When I hear these words, I vote for the animal food in his hand.
He turned around, looking again at the figure of his grandson.
"They're back" – When he looked at them he approached the two of them in an instant, with his great strength and height, he hugged them, tears everywhere.
"I knew you were alive! My grandson is alive!" – After saying those words. I cry with happiness, as I hugged them much tighter.
Adrian just smiled, he didn't know why, but it felt good to receive such a warm hug.
After Grandpa hugged them, he immediately took them inside and they also began to celebrate with Grandma.
However, they then looked at the situation of how Young Ma was doing.
Adrián explained what he had seen.
After telling them many things, Grandpa simply lamented.
"Your elder brother Ma, he regretted every day that he couldn't save you, then he left the house, looking to join expeditions to the forbidden city, he didn't want me to do that, but I couldn't stop him, these months I've only spent recovering" – Grandpa lamented, as his aura became unstable, Adrian could feel that he hadn't fully recovered yet.
"At the moment I can't leave this house, I have many enemies, and if they see me weak, they would attack me at any time, I never thought that your elder brother would get into such trouble" – Grandpa lamented, while clenching his fist tightly.
Adrian didn't ask about the old man's team, although it was strange that he didn't see them anywhere.
After talking for a few more hours, Grandma had prepared dinner, they let Young Ma rest while they ate at ease.
It seemed as if Grandpa had regained years of life.
When night came, Adrián approached the window of his room. He saw the whole city various seasons, he had spent little time living in this place, but for some reason, he felt that he could call this house as his home.
Although he never forgot his goal, he always looked at the sky from time to time.
The next day, Elder Brother Ma had regained consciousness. When he saw Adrian, he apologized by putting his forehead on the ground. He had regretted since that day that he had not saved him.
Adrian forgave him, and hugged him, only then could Big Brother Ma apologize to himself.
After that, Senior Brother Ma told what he had done, and the deal he had made with the city lord.
"I promised to be their pack mule, as long as I could be taken to the forbidden city, sign the contract for five years, if I don't keep the promise, the lord of the city will kill me."
After telling the deal he made with the lord of the city. Grandfather knew that the matter was serious.
Not just anyone could make contact with the city lord. But that Young Ma could contact him was already spectacular.
Adrian was a little moved by his older brother Ma's words, it seemed that everything he had done was to be able to look for him.
"I'll go talk to the city lord, I know I can reach an agreement" - After thinking about it for a moment, Grandpa spoke. He feared for his home, but he feared more for his family.
"I, I'm sorry grandpa" – Young Ma continued to apologize, he felt like he was a burden, causing trouble all the time.
"You don't have to apologize, I was to blame, it's time for me to figure it out" – After speaking kindly, quite a few other things were discussed.
Before Grandpa left. Secretly, the grandfather had entrusted the security of the house to Adrian.
Adrián nodded, but today he had to do something important. So he left the fog, while he was leaving.
