Chapter 3750 Chapter 3752 [Ashes to ashes, dust to dust]
Ren Tianxing immediately sounded the alarm, and the islanders were soon awakened.
“Island owner, what happened?”
“Island owner, why are you ringing the bell?”
“Island owner, it’s so late, what do you want from us?”
“Oh, why is the northwest side so red? It’s broken. It’s a fire!”
The islanders came to the square one after another and asked Ren Tianxingdao.
At this moment, someone finally saw the fire in the northwest.
It turns out that Guzi was afraid that Xiang Nan would not be burned to death, so he brought a lot of firewood over.
At this moment, the flames were raging, lighting up half of the sky red.
“Everyone, follow me to put out the fire!” Ren Tianxing shouted with a wave of his hand.
The islanders immediately picked up buckets, basins and ladles and followed Ren Tianxing to the fire scene.
“Oh, there’s a fire in the cave. Damn it, will Mr. Ding be okay?”
“It’s over, he is the lucky star of our Wangyou Island. If he dies, what will happen to our Wangyou Island?”
“There are so many firewood piled at the entrance of the cave. This is not a fire. This is someone deliberately setting the fire. Who is so bold as to burn our lucky star on Wangyou Island?”
“Oh my god, someone really set the fire on purpose. Island owner, this person has committed a heinous crime. We must find him out. We, Wangyou Island, have enjoyed peace for decades, and we cannot allow such people to destroy it.”
While putting out the fire, the islanders walked toward Ren Tian.
“Everyone, please don’t worry. I have rescued Mr. Ding safely. There is nothing serious.” Ren Tianxing said, “As for the person who set the fire, I have also caught him, it is Gu Zi.”
"It's him?! Oh, how could it be him? Guzi has always been honest and diligent, how could he do such a thing?"
“Guzi has always thought highly of himself, thinking that he was the only one who could pull out the holy sword. Now that he sees Mr. Ding pull out the holy sword and he fails, it is inevitable that he will feel dissatisfied.”
"Gu Zi led people to beat Mr. Ding before and almost killed him. I didn't expect that he still didn't repent and committed such evil deeds again. He is really wild and untamable."
“Thanks to the island owner’s wisdom and martial arts, he rescued Young Master Ding in time and captured the murderer Gu Zi. Otherwise, our Wangyou Island would be in dire straits!”
The islanders all talked about it.
…
With the concerted efforts of everyone, the fire was finally put out, and at this time, the east was already turning white.
“The fire was finally put out.” Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, the fire was put out in time, and the fire only burned the cave and did not ignite the jungle on the island. Otherwise, if the wind helps the fire, and the fire borrows the power of the wind, it is possible that the entire Wangyou Island will be set on fire.
“Oh, it’s a good thing we were saved in time. Otherwise, the fire would have spread and we would all be in trouble.”
"Gu Zi is so abominable. Didn't he think that once the fire spread, the entire island would burn down?"
"Why don't you hurry up and catch Gu Zi? It's really abominable. He actually did such a bad thing. Island owner, you can't let him off lightly this time, you must punish him well!"
At this moment, Feifei and Awang ran over in a panic, "It's not good, island owner, it's not good, Guzi committed suicide by jumping into the sea."
"What?" Ren Tianxing quickly led people to the beach and saw Gu Zi's body still floating in the sea. Ren Tianxing jumped up, walked on the waves, came to Guzi, picked him up in his hands, and brought him back to the shore, where he saw that he was no longer breathing.
“…”Seeing this scene, the islanders were shocked, feeling sad and pity.
“Well, I have always treated Guzi as a nephew. Although he committed a serious crime this time, I still want to give him another chance, and I will only punish him with minor punishments and severe punishments.
Unexpectedly, he could not bear the condemnation of his conscience and finally chose to die to apologize. What Gu Zi did made me see his blood. "Ren Tianxing said, "Okay, everything will end after death. Let's put this matter aside and bury Gu Zi properly. "
All the islanders nodded.
…
In the early morning, Xiang Nan "woke up".
Seeing Qingqing guarding her bed again, looking at herself and sobbing softly.
Xiang Nan slowly raised his hand and called out in a hoarse voice, "Qingqing~"
“Brother Peng, it’s great that you’re awake.” Qingqing was very happy to see him awake, wiping away her tears and saying with a smile.
"What's wrong with me?" Xiang Nan asked in surprise.
Qingqing recounted the story of Guzi setting fire to death with the intention of burning him to death, "Thank you dad for finding out in time and saving you. Otherwise, you would have been in danger."
“I see. No wonder I have a headache, a stuffy nose, and a sore throat.” Xiang Nan suddenly realized, “I really want to thank the island owner for saving my life.
It's just that I can't figure it out, why did Gu Zi treat me like this? I didn't care about what happened last time, so why would he be so cruel again? "
"I'm not sure either." Qingqing waved her hand, "But Guzi has committed suicide by drowning himself in the sea as an apology. Brother Peng, don't blame him anymore."
"What?! He's dead." Xiang Nan was surprised when he heard it, and then sighed, "Why is he so impulsive? Although he wants to kill me, I am not dead after all, so why should he seek death? Woolen cloth?"
"Maybe he can't accept himself as he is now." Qingqing sighed, "We grew up together. At that time, Gu Zi was honest, kind, hard-working, and brave. He was different from the murderous, arsonist, and aggressive person now. He is completely different.
I can’t even figure out why he became like this, which makes me feel sad for him..."
As she spoke, she burst into tears again.
Xiang Nan nodded, "Qingqing, don't cry, everyone will change. Children will become adults, adults will become old people, no one can stay the same.
The past cannot be remonstrated, but the past can still be pursued. All we can do is cherish the present and not be immersed in the sadness of the past. "
“Yeah.” Qingqing nodded.
…
Two days later, the villagers held a funeral for Gu Zi and buried him in the cemetery on the island.
"Guzi, you can go in peace. Although you did a lot of wrong things during your lifetime, you have paid for all your sins with your death, so you can walk away clean."
When you are reincarnated in the future, you will still be an innocent person. Gu Zi, I hope you will be a good person in your next life and stop being so extreme and impulsive. "Qingqing prayed for Guzi.
"Gu Zi, although we have had many festivals before, I don't hate you." Xiang Nan also said to Gu Zi, "I know it was your misunderstanding that led you to go astray.
I originally wanted to be a brother with you, but who knew that you would find your own way to death? I hope you will be more open-minded in the next life, and we can be friends again then. "
“Brother Peng~” Qingqing was very moved when Xiang Nan said this.
"Ashes return to ashes, soil returns to earth. Good luck to you all the way, Guzi. In this life, you will die to apologize, so you can be reborn with a clean conscience, and be a good person in the next life." Ren Tianxing finally said, and then everyone added soil to his grave. .
