(Keep asking for votes, keep asking for votes, everyone give up)

More than 20 years ago, the old man took Qin Sheng alone to Zhongnan Mountain, the first blessed land in the world, and buried himself in the wilderness of this foreign land and became a lonely ghost, in order to spend 20 years to accumulate good fortune for Qin Sheng, and since then he has also started Qin Sheng's life of more than 20 years of wandering, and Qin Sheng has lost a lot of things in these more than 20 years.

Today, more than 20 years later, Qin Changan took Qin Sheng to this Zhongnan Mountain again, ending with a tribute to the old man, officially announcing that Qin Sheng began the second half of his unpredictable life.

The hardships of the first 20 years or so have created the glory of Qin Sheng's second half of his life, and no one knows whether it is worth it or not.

Incense, kowtow, bow. The ceremony of worshiping Old Man Qin ended so simply, without too complicated procedures.

Qin Changan got up and looked at Qin Sheng and Qin Ran and said, "You stay in Xi'an for another day, I will go back to Beijing first, and I will ask Gongsun to pick you up at the airport at noon tomorrow."

Qin Ran nodded silently and said, "Dad, pay attention to your body, drink less during dinner, remember to take the medicine I bought for you, it will be better for your body"

"Got it," Qin Changan smiled with relief.

Qin Sheng nodded lightly at Qin Changan, watching Qin Changan and Gongsun leave slowly, he also planned to continue to stay for a while and clean up the dry grass on his grandfather's grave.

After Qin Changan and Gongsun left, there were only two sisters and brothers left, Qin Sheng and Qin Ran, Qin Ran cleaned up some weeds and dust on his clothes, Qin Sheng took off his coat and put it on the tree next to him, squatted on the ground and began to work. This kind of manual work was not new to him, and when he was a child, he often went to the nearby villages to help out, so that the villagers could help when there was something wrong. The most famous thing here is grapes, so Qin Sheng likes to go to the garden to pick grapes to his heart's content when the grapes are harvested, and eat them until they last.

"Qin Sheng, what should you say about grandpa's life?" Qin Ran stared at this lonely grave, still a little confused, and asked subconsciously.

Sister's words made Qin Sheng fall into deep thought, how should grandpa be evaluated in this life? He didn't know who could evaluate grandpa, but he remembered that the old Taoist of Louguantai said something when he said goodbye to his grandfather, so Qin Sheng said slowly, "Daoist Ren of Louguantai said that some people live a lifetime, never for themselves, for this world, they are just a group of passers-by in a hurry, they don't want to leave any traces, and they don't want to be remembered by anyone, because they live only for others, Taoists say that this is the realm of selflessness."

"Selfless?" Qin Ran pondered Qin Sheng's words, it seemed that as he said, grandpa in this life.

Qin Sheng was busy for half an hour, and finally cleaned up his grandfather's place, but when he first came, he saw that someone should have said it before, because there was still a burning incense on the grave, I don't know if it was Aunt Wang and Xinxin, or someone else?

"Grandpa, we're leaving, I'll see you next time"

After saying goodbye to the old man, Qin Sheng left here with Qin Ran, and the car was still waiting for them on the side of the road, it was an employee of the Xi'an branch of the Qin family.

After getting in the car, Qin Sheng was going to take Qin Ran to eat first and taste the food of our Greater Xi'an, it should be said that he was greedy, and at this time eating a bowl of mutton steamed buns was the most comfortable thing.

"Qin Sheng, where did you live with your grandfather when you were a child, or did you both live in the Lin family?" Qin Ran asked casually, wanting to know more about Qin Sheng's childhood.

Qin Sheng said with interest, "At the beginning, my grandfather and I lived near here, and later after going to school, I lived in the Lin family on weekdays, and came back to live with my grandfather on weekends or holidays. Grandpa hasn't left here for 20 years since he took me to Xi'an."

"Ah" Qin Ran said in shock, it seemed that for her, if she stayed in one place for twenty years, it was estimated that she would have gone crazy a long time ago.

Qin Sheng smiled and said, "Sister, let's go, I'll take you to see where I lived when I was a child, and it is also my grandfather's home."

So, Qin Sheng let sit in the co-pilot's seat, and he personally drove Qin Ran to a village not far away, Qin Ran was somewhat expectant, but he was also completely mentally prepared.

A few minutes later, they finally came to the nearest village, and the old house where Qin Sheng and the old man lived was a single courtyard in the village, and it was still a few hundred meters away from the village's settlement.

This courtyard sits in the south and faces north, with its back to Zhongnan Mountain and faces Chang'an City, and the courtyard has no wall, but a wall is encircled with a stump fence, and the three old brick houses in the middle are enclosed. There is a towering tree in the yard, which is the most common national acacia in Xi'an, which has been hundreds of years old, and now it takes two or three people to hold it.

This national acacia left a deep impression on Qin Sheng, and it is still flourishing, but it will look a little bleak in winter. I remember that in the summer, every evening, the old man would sit under the tree to enjoy the shade, listen to a piece of Peking Opera, and play an erhu song, while Qin Sheng stood not far away to play, which was too comfortable.

After so many years, after the old man died, Qin Sheng never returned here, the yard has long been dilapidated, full of weeds growing wildly, and there are many tattered things, I think it has become the first choice for those children in the village to hide and seek.

"This is where you lived with your grandfather when you were a child?" Qin Ran said a little shocked, she thought that the place where Qin Sheng and her grandfather lived might not be very good, but she didn't expect the conditions to be so difficult, let alone living in this kind of place in her life, she had never been there.

Qin Sheng laughed and said, "Yes, this is my childhood"

Qin Ran hugged Qin Sheng again and said, "Brother, how much suffering did you suffer when you were a child, my sister really feels sorry for you."

Qin Sheng cried and laughed, "Sister, you're here again, that's all from the past, isn't it good now?" Besides, this place is very good, you haven't been to more remote places, I had a place to live when I was a child, and those places are called real suffering."

"Well, the hardships you have suffered before, my sister will double it up for you" Qin Ran said firmly, provoking Qin Sheng a little embarrassed, this sister is really going to hurt him to the sky.

"Let's go, take you in and around" Qin Sheng took Qin Ran's hand and walked in, the car stopped at the door, and the driver was waiting for them in the car.

Although the courtyard wall is surrounded by tree stumps and fences, the two courtyard doors are made of pine wood, and they are locked with a lock, and Qin Sheng's key is lost in the Lin family's bedroom, which seems to be a little helpless. But this was not a problem for Qin Sheng, he casually picked up a brick from the ground, and in Qin Ran's stunned eyes, a brick smashed the lock.

"Let's go" Qin Sheng shrugged at his sister, as if he had half a big thing, and he was a little proud.

After walking into the courtyard, Qin Sheng used a wooden stick to open the way in front, Qin Ran followed closely behind him, Qin Sheng, who was in a good mood, pointed to this and that to introduce Qin Ran to the old house, but what was left in the old house were some worthless things, and many of his grandfather's things were stored in the old Taoist of Louguantai, such as the valuable erhu and guqin.

After shopping for a while, Qin Sheng also felt that it was not interesting, so he was about to take Qin Ran out, at this time, a car passed by the yard, and saw Qin Ran and Qin Sheng inside, and the young man driving rolled down the window and yelled at them, "What are you doing?"

After speaking, the young man stopped the car and ran over angrily, but he was a little surprised to see the Daben parked at the door, and he didn't know where the rich man came from.

"What are you doing here?" asked the imposing young man, for the people of the village, although the courtyard had long since fallen into disarray, the old people and children who lived in the courtyard had a deep affection for them. Especially the old man, who has helped the village do several major things, so the villagers are very grateful to the old man and have been spontaneously guarding the yard. Although the old man has died, his grandson is still alive, but he has not returned for so many years.

Qin Ran was a little worried, not knowing what the young man in front of him wanted to do.

Qin Sheng didn't care at all, and said with a smile, "Huzi, it's only been a few years, don't you know me?"

The young man who was called Huzi by Qin Sheng was stunned, and then walked a few steps forward, only then did he recognize who the man in front of him was, he didn't expect it to be Qin Sheng.

Huzi's expression instantly turned into surprise, and then he quickly rushed to Qin Sheng, hugged Qin Sheng's shoulder and said, ", Qin Sheng, it's actually you." Damn, what a surprise, why did you come back?"

Huzi's mouth was full of foul mouth, which made Qin Ran a little uncomfortable, but she could hear the surprise and emotion in these words.

Qin Sheng hammered his fist at Huzi and said, "This is my home, why can't I come back?"

"Damn, why do you still know that this is your family, after Grandpa Qin died, how many years have it been, where have you gone, we all thought you were dead" Huzi was even more excited.

Qin Sheng often fought and scolded them when he was a child, and he was used to this way of speaking, after all, they were all natives of the village, although they were foul when they spoke, but the expression was the most sincere feelings.

Qin Sheng responded, "Drafting the uncle, if you die, Lao Tzu will not die"

Huzi laughed when he heard this, and then he noticed the beautiful beauty next to him, and he was so nervous that he stuttered, "This...... This beauty ...... Belle...... Be...... Who are you? ...... Girlfriend?"

Qin Sheng lowered the tiger again, and said, "Get out of your uncle's, this is my own sister"

Huzi scratched his head a little embarrassed and said, "Sister, good sister, sorry, sorry, sorry, I'm a rough person, sister, don't be weird"

"Hello" This is Qin Sheng's friend, Qin Ran did not refuse people thousands of miles away, and responded politely.

Huzi said at this time, "Let's go, don't stand here, go to my house and we'll have a good chat, I guess everyone doesn't know that you're back, you don't know how much everyone misses you"

Qin Sheng looked at Qin Ran and said a little embarrassed, "Huzi, another day, we still have some things to deal with today"

"Another day, let's go, who knows when you'll see you next time. What's the matter with the New Year, I don't care if there is something that will be in place for a while, isn't this just the New Year, everyone is back, it's rare to get together" Huzi didn't stop there, and said insistently.

Qin Ran smiled lightly, "Qin Sheng, let's meet you old friends, I don't know when I'll see you in the future."

Qin Sheng was thoughtful, it seemed that as his sister said, he really didn't know when he would come back, and he also wanted to know how these childhood playmates were doing now.

So, Qin Sheng and Qin Ran followed Huzi to a village not far away, Huzi drove in front, and the driver drove a Mercedes-Benz behind, and Huzi kept talking on the phone all the way. If Qin Ran heard the way he spoke, he would definitely laugh out loud again, Qin Sheng had been accustomed to this environment since he was a child.

When they arrived at Huzi's house, Qin Ran and Qin Sheng were startled, I'm a good girl, how many people are here......
