When the building was empty, only the old man and the young man were left in the teahouse.

"I want to go there and see it. ”

The handsome boy upstairs spoke calmly, just looking out the window with a look of determination in his eyes.

The direction he was looking at was not the mountains in the distance that were rumored to contain immortal treasures, but the direction of Fufeng Castle.

At this time, the old man downstairs had already gotten up and sat at the table, gently fanning the folding fan he didn't know where to find with his left hand, and holding a cup of hot tea in his right hand and drinking it with his head down.

Hearing the boy's words, the old man suddenly put down the teacup, snapped, the tea splashed, stood up without hesitation, the folding fan in his left hand was already together, pointed to the young man upstairs, and shouted angrily: "You can't teach your son, Liu Weak, I said that you treat me as your own grandfather, or do you think I treat you as your own grandson." ”

Then Liu Laoshi took a deep breath, his demeanor stabilized a little, and then said: "Fufeng is an ancient relic immortal, no one knows what his immortal treasure will have, and if he is unprepared, even I am enough to drink a pot." After three years of waiting, we will continue to wait here to see which person with great luck can get the immortal relics, and then it is not too late for us to congratulate and thank you. ”

The boy named Liu Qiao upstairs suddenly pursed his lips and smiled, revealing two small dimples, very innocent and cute, and replied: "You old man, if you want to intercept the road halfway, just say it directly." But I really can't wait, I'm afraid it's too late. ”

After saying this, Liu Miao leaned forward and climbed on the handrail of the stairs, his chin resting on his arm, his dark and neat eyebrows wrinkled together in a word, and his little face was very sad.

For a while, time in the teahouse seemed to stand still, and it was unusually quiet.

Liu Laoshi seemed to have struggled in his heart, and finally reluctantly agreed: "Boy, I agree with you to go and take a look, but the ugly words are ahead, if something happens, you don't have to pretend to be a grandson, even if you are your own grandfather, my old arms and legs will be withdrawn first!"

"Okay, when the time comes, you just have to run as fast as you can, and you're done, don't worry about me. ”

Before Liu Qiao could finish listening to the old man's words, his frowning brows had gradually separated, no longer so sad, and a little overjoyed. When the old man finished speaking, he hung two small round dimples on his face, and happily agreed.

He knew the old man's character very well, and when he heard that the old man was willing to act like this, it was like the sun came out in the west, but his heart was full of emotion, and at the same time, he made up his mind that he would think about it in the long run, and he would not easily take risks!

Inside Fufeng Castle

It is approaching evening, and it is already July, and the scorching summer day is only cool after the sun goes down with the gentle breeze. At this time, the residents of the city also left their homes and poured into the streets.

In the bustling crowd, from time to time there is the sound of hawkers shouting, the cheers of people watching the street performers, and the loud bargaining between businessmen, the sound of endless and lively sounds.

On the roof of a quaint three-story building, on the roof of a nameless remote street, the grandfather and grandson of the teahouse sat on the roof tiles. Liu Laoshi meditated cross-legged, keeping his eyes closed, while Liu Wan supported his head with his hands like flower bones, his elbows on his knees, and his eyes stared directly at an abandoned ancient house across the street.

The house opposite the two no longer has a plaque, and the paint on the door can no longer distinguish the original color. The gate was empty, but the two doors were almost covered with layers of cobwebs, the front of the door was overgrown with weeds, rubble and tiles were everywhere, the wall was more than a foot high, and even the two stone lions in the town house were broken, and somehow, one of them fell to the ground.

This place has already spread in the city, a hundred years ago the family died overnight, rumors are that it is a fierce ghost, it is a fierce place. So even the surrounding neighbors have long been uninhabited here, and even this street is rarely inhabited.

"Hey, I said, old man, how much power and how powerful do you say you want to be satisfied? And what is everyone's cultivation pursuing? ”

Liu Qiao's eyes were still stunned and stared at the dilapidated ancient mansion, and he asked softly, but without waiting for the old man to answer, he continued to say to himself: "This was the old mansion of a feudal ambassador of Yunhan Country a hundred years ago. At that time, the power was very great, it can be said that the feudal officials of Yunhan Country were no weaker than the power of some small border country lords, and even the lords of small countries had to treat each other with courtesy, but he was not satisfied, and this person was ruthless, it coincided with natural disasters and rebellion, in order to be strong, he intercepted a large number of disaster relief resources, and colluded with evil demons to kill a large number of disaster victims to practice evil skills. It's just that people are watching the sky, and after all, the East Window incident happened. Or the prince of the year, Leng Ruoran, the current monarch of Yunhan Kingdom, personally led his troops to kill. I heard that on the three days of the Great War that year, Leng Ruoran recuperated from his injuries for three months after the first battle, and his masters were also seriously injured. However, no one knows what the specific battle situation was at that time, but it was later discovered that the battlefield was nearly 100 miles in circumference, and there was no grass.

According to Leng Ruoran's way, the nine clans will inevitably be punished, so as to prevent future troubles and set an example. was only stopped by the prince at that time, and issued an order, just raided the house, killed some guilty people, and exiled others for thousands of miles. Alas!" After Liu Xiao finished the last sentence, he sighed, full of emotion and incomprehension.

After quietly listening to the young man next to him tell this little-known past, Liu Laoshi was not surprised, as if Liu Qiao didn't know that it was abnormal. The old man didn't know how to answer for a while, but he thought silently in his heart, when you grow up, you will understand.

But after a moment of silence, he said first: "If you are older, you sigh for a long time, if you only hear and don't see people, others will probably think that you are my grandfather."

Seeing that the young man next to him was a little annoyed and seemed to want to speak, he preemptively told the young man next to him some past events.

"After the division of the Ancient Immortal Land, there are now four forces that have existed for nearly 10,000 years: the Eastern Ming Dao, the Southern Li Sect, the Western Pole Sect and the Northern Underworld. These four forces are powerful behind them and themselves, so they are named after the realm, which has not changed in the past 10,000 years, and all the forces in the four sides are also headed by this four forces. The old man glanced at the young man with straight eyes, obviously ignoring him, but still finished speaking, and this time the old man seemed to have fallen into a long memory.

"Even if the current Four Directions Realm is only patchwork, it is also vast and boundless, and it is difficult for ordinary people to explore one or two in their lifetime, but even if it is vast and boundless, there are still countless large and small forces guarding this world, even if there are even a hundred or so small villages, there are cultivators.

But this heaven and earth are incomplete after all, the resources between heaven and earth are getting less and less after all, and now there are many cultivators large and small, but many heaven and earth treasures will not appear again.

So there are some things that don't distinguish between good and evil, and if anyone wants to go down the path of cultivation and keep moving forward, then they have to fight, fight with others, fight with heaven and earth. No matter how much power you have behind you, how strong your own strength is. But there is always what you need and what you want to get, or there is always something you want to do, and you always have a purpose that you want to achieve. But before you achieve your goal, you have to find a way to do something in the process so that you can achieve your goal. The old man paused and glanced at the thoughtful Liu Qiao. Then he said: "You have to know what you have received or what you have done to be satisfied, to know if you have given enough, and what you should do to achieve what you want." Others may never know what you think in your heart, you just need to know what you think, but you must have a bottom line, no matter whether you are a good person or a bad person, but you have also done good and evil things. ”

After a while, Liu Qiao changed his position, sat up straight and sat cross-legged like an old man, put his hands on his knees, took a deep breath, and then exhaled heavily.

He turned his head and glanced deeply at the old man beside him, and said seriously: "Old man, thank you, I think I understand a little." ”

When the old man heard the words of the young man beside him, he suddenly stroked his beard and laughed: "Haha, what do you understand? I don't even know what I said just now, I think you still don't understand." ”

When the young man next to him heard this, he also slapped his legs and laughed: "Hahaha, your old man is reasonable." ”

As the sun sets, the last rays of afterglow are sprinkled on the old and the young, accompanied by bursts of laughter, which is warm.
