Lu Qing took out the flatbread from the rucksack that they had carried along the way and handed it to Mu Hong: "This is for you. We will go back today and return early tomorrow morning.
As for what exactly needs to be done, we will discuss it in detail after we return tomorrow.
I hope you can fulfill your promise and not have any backtracking actions."
Mu Hong gratefully reached out to take the flatbread, nodding repeatedly: "Rest assured, everyone, I'll stay here. I have no ties in this world anymore. I'll make sure you can find me right here when you return tomorrow."
When the four left the small wooden building, it was already the afternoon with the setting sun in the west, and Mu Hong went back into the underground tomb alone.
Even though he knew that more than twenty years had passed, his courage was still not enough to allow him to return to a life above ground after hiding for so long.
