Chapter 40: Peach Pit

After Cheng Qiyue said goodbye and left, Lin Zhishui watched her back disappear, then returned to the house, put three small peaches on the table, and began to mix ink and cut paper, ready to practice ink painting.

When he first started grinding ink, he heard the mobile phone ringing suddenly, so he had to put down the ink ingot, took out his mobile phone and saw that the caller was Yan Shuishui.

"Senior, I'm Shuishui. ”

After connecting it, the crisp sound of Yan Shuishui immediately sounded on the opposite side.

"What's the matter, Xiaoshui, is there something wrong?" Lin Zhishui tilted his head and held his phone between his cheeks and shoulders, grinding ink on his hands as he spoke.

"This ...... I probably haven't had time to practice my words lately. ”

Yan Shuishui sighed helplessly and said, "One of my teacher's elders doesn't know where to go, I have to search for the whereabouts of that elder recently, I'm afraid I won't be able to go for the time being." ”

Lin Zhishui's movements stopped and said, "It's okay, you're busy with you, do you need my help?"

This little girl has been practicing calligraphy with him for a month, and now she is an acquaintance, so she should still care about it.

"Would you like to help?" asked Yan Shuishui happily.

"I can only keep an eye on it for you by the way. Lin Zhishui was stunned and said, "You send me his photo, in case I'm lucky enough to find it, I can notify you." ”

After all, there is a two-layer relationship, he is just polite, and he will not look for it with his heart, just depend on fate.

"Okay, thank you senior, I'll send you the photo of that elder now. ”

After ending the call, Lin Zhishui received a photo from Yan Shuishui.

The photo shows a handsome man in his fifties, with a meticulous big back, slightly gray sideburns, elegant colors between his eyebrows, a suit and leather shoes, not smiling, and looks very temperamental.

He glanced at it twice, then turned off the picture and put away his phone.

Such a handsome man with such a standing temperament, as long as he sees it, he will definitely be able to recognize it at a glance.

......

Time flies.

Unconsciously, Lin Zhishui practiced ink painting for an afternoon, and after looking at the time, it was already eight o'clock.

In the past, he should have gone back to cook a long time ago, but recently, his little snake has always gotten up late, and it is just right to go back to cook later.

"A little hungry. ”

Lin Zhishui touched his deflated stomach, and suddenly saw a plastic bag on the desk, which contained three small peaches that Cheng Qiyue gave him in the afternoon, so he took out a small peach from the bag and prepared to pad his stomach first.

This peach is not big, and it is a little blue, but the skin is still very clean and smooth, and it is estimated that the little girl has washed it in advance before she came.

As a nectarine party who doesn't love peaches, he loves crisp peaches even more.

Although this peach looks average, it still seems to be quite elastic when pinched, maybe it's good?

"However, the peach doesn't look like this, does the peach still have nectarine?"

Lin Zhishui muttered to himself, he didn't want to think so much, so he picked up the peach and took a bite, but the sweet juice suddenly gushed out, overflowed between his mouth, and flowed into his throat, refreshing people's hearts.

Paired with the soft and smooth flesh, it is indeed quite delicious.

"Yes, soft peaches are actually quite delicious, but there are too few. ”

He couldn't help but nod slightly.

After eating this little peach in a few bites, there was soon only a small pale yellow peach pit left.

There are only paper baskets in the house, and it is inconvenient to sort garbage.

Lin Zhishui walked to the door, casually threw the peach pit to the trash can placed next to the door, but the force was greater, the peach pit smashed on the edge of the trash can, and then it was bounced to the pine tree next to it, and finally fell into the soil circle under the pine tree, rolled a few times, and the peach pit stopped.

However, the pale yellow peach pits are also stained with a little mud.

"Eh......"

Lin Zhishui originally wanted to pick it up, but when he found that there was a layer of mud on it, he was a little disgusted, but he decided to give up.

Anyway, Yan Shuishui, that little girl, often comes to take care of this little pine tree, and she still has a crush on herself, so she shouldn't dislike his saliva...... Right?

"Ahem, little pine, the peach pit should be regarded as your nutrition, love you. ”

Lin Zhishui snorted, waved his hand at the little pine tree, then turned around and returned to the store, put the plastic bag with the remaining two small peaches into the satchel, and locked the door and went home with the satchel on his back.

These two small peaches, just give them to their own little snakes, anyway, he prefers crisp peaches, and he has no feelings for this kind of soft peach.

- And there is no need to take a detour to the supermarket to buy fruit, which is hassle-free and perfect.

After he was gone, a childish and cute little girl's face slowly appeared on the trunk of the small pine tree at the door, and although she could not see the color of her skin, she could also see that her cute face was already full of shyness and joy.

The master said...... Love me, and gave me the pit of a peach?'

The little pine tree bent down slightly, and his lovely eyes looked at the peach pit under his feet, thinking a little stupidly.

It has also heard of the queen mother's peach, and can also feel the pure immortal energy contained in this peach pit, according to the memory of the inheritance of Fuxi's dharma body, if it absorbs this peach pit, it can gradually transform from ordinary plants and trees to the direction of the spiritual root of heaven and earth.

'The host was so nice to me......

It couldn't help but feel the urge to cry, but unfortunately there were no tears to shed.

The next moment, the roots under the soil poked out like tentacles, and the slender roots tentacles suddenly wrapped the core of the peach and pulled it into the soil.

......

At this point in time, the road was not too crowded, and after Lin Zhishui crossed an overpass, he walked into an underground passage, and along this shortcut, it would not be long before he could reach home.

"Huh?"

After Lin Zhishui walked into the underground passage, he suddenly found that an old man in ragged clothes was lying in the open space on the side of the road not far from the passage.

The old man had goosebumps, was dirty, his clothes were dusty, and his silver hair was messy, like an unkempt beggar, but the clothes were barely recognizable as a suit, and the leather shoes on his feet were missing, and although the other was dirty and rotten, he could vaguely guess that it was originally worth a lot, and ...... Its owner used to be glamorous.

Well, it's an old man with a story.

At this time, the old man was lying on the ground with a demented face, not paying the slightest attention to the eyes of the people who came and going, nor did he care that his clothes were covered with dust, and his eyes were empty and blank, as if he had no love.

The old man was obviously not a beggar, and there was no bowl in front of him.

Passers-by may not be so indifferent, but apparently few people are willing to get into trouble.

Lin Zhishui glanced at it, and was about to bypass it, but he was suddenly slightly stunned, stopped, and glanced at the old man carefully, he always felt a little familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.

'That's right!'

He suddenly reacted, the appearance of this old man was a bit similar to the photo Yan Shuishui sent him, her teacher's elder, the handsome man with a very temperamental temperament.

However, maybe it just looks alike?

After all, the handsome man in the photo, his hair is not so white, his skin is not so wrinkled, and he is not so old, and his eyebrows are full of elegance, at first glance, he is the kind of meticulous cleanliness, how can he be like a beggar?

Of course......

It could also be a photo from the past, maybe it was hit by something now, so it became like this?

Look at this old man's loveless face, he is obviously desperate and waiting to die.

No wonder Yan Shuishui didn't even care about his crush on the eldest brother, and was so anxious to find this old man, daring to love that her teacher's elder was lost, and he might have to die.

But maybe there is a relationship between Yan Shui and Shui, and the old man still has to be persuaded to do so.

Lin Zhishui thought for a while, then walked to the old man and squatted down, and said, "Look at your appearance, are you waiting for death?"
