Volume 3_Chapter 616 The Secret of the Nameless Old Man
The so-called no coincidence is not a book.
What Han Yu experienced during this time was too coincidental.
But when Han Yu thought about it carefully, he found that it seemed that these things happened like this as a matter of course.
Let's put it this way, if any of these things didn't happen, maybe Han Yu wouldn't be able to get the news he thought of at this time.
It's like Han Yu met the two old men of the Yun family. Because he met them, Han Yu obtained half a bead, so Han Yu wanted to find someone from the Yun family. And because of this, Han Yu fell into the battle between the Yun family and the Situ family and the Huangpu family.
And if Han Yu hadn't been caught in such a battle and made such a contribution to the Yun family in the battle, would Zhong Lingxiu tell Han Yu the news behind it?
So, after thinking about this, Han Yu felt lucky again, and felt that everything he had done before was meaningful.
Of course, these are not the most important things, the important thing is that at this time, Han Yu already knows how to find the Undead Flower.
At this time, what Han Yu needs to do is to find the so-called eldest lady Yun Dao first, then get the beads from Yun Dao's hands, and finally go to the island over there, so that he may find the Undead Flower.
It may seem complicated to connect things from the past, but as long as you are clear about what you need to do at the moment, things will not be complicated. Because as you move forward, as you will solve some problems, what awaits you will be a clear future.
Of course, at this time, Han Yu still has things to do, and there are still problems that need to be explained.
At this time, Han Yu returned to the front of the inn.
And of course, the nameless old man, who seemed to be cut off from this world, was sitting in front of his inn at this time, drinking his own wine unchanged for ten thousand years, completely oblivious to what was happening in the outside world.
Han Yu came to the old man and said hello to the old man, but after getting no answer as usual, Han Yu did not enter the inn directly as before, but sat on the ground next to the old man.
Yes, Han Yu's purpose when he returned here was to find this old man, so he didn't leave.
The old man raised his head slightly, glanced at Han Yu, but did not speak, and still drank wine.
Han Yu didn't speak, but poured his own wine. What was surprising was that this old man didn't stop Han Yu's movements.
In this way, the two of them sat here, but they drank their own wine as if no one existed beside them. And I don't know what the reason is, that little wine jug actually has wine after the two of them drank a small half-column of incense in a row!
For this reason, Han Yu couldn't help but be a little surprised, but he quickly figured out something again, smiled slightly, and buried himself in drinking, ignoring everything that was beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
If the old man is strong enough to a certain extent, then he will not be able to make the space inside the pot very large, so that the pot can hold a lot of wine?
Time passed as the two of them drank their wine, hour after hour, until it was dark.
Today is a clear night, and the bright moon in the sky is very bright, illuminating the earth clearly, and there is no sense of horror at all when the night comes.
Of course, the moonlight also shone in front of this nameless inn, and shone on Han Yu and the old man.
After the old man drank a glass of wine, he finally had a move other than drinking, raised his head, and looked at the bright moon.
The old man's eyes were very cloudy, like yellow muddy water that had been muddy, but the old man's eyes were very bright, as if he could see through the moon.
And after looking at the moon for a while, the old man actually sighed, and his face showed a kind of vicissitudes that Han Yu was not familiar with and could only be condensed after countless years.
At this moment, the silent and indifferent old man, the strong old man who can kick Huang Pudong as a ball, looks so lonely.
He was in a prosperous imperial city, there was catharsis everywhere, he was under the moonlight, and there was a Han Yu by his side. But the old man seemed lonely, as if he was the only one in the world. In other words, there is only one person in the old man's world, and no one can enter his world.
This loneliness makes people want to cry, they want to break. Because it looks so bleak.
So Han Yu wants to break this loneliness, break this desolation. So Han Yu had a move.
Bang!
Han Yu picked up his cup and gently touched the old man's cup. The old man looked at Han Yu suspiciously.
Han Yu still didn't say anything, just smiled at the old man, and then tilted his head and poured the wine into his throat. In this way, Han Yu poured himself another glass of wine, lightly touched the old man's cup, and then drained the wine in another sip.
Then, Han Yu continued to repeat the same action, completely ignoring the old man, as if he was just doing it as a habit and had no other meaning.
The old man's brows furrowed more and more, and his face became more and more solemn.
Under the bright moonlight, an old man's eyes were staring at a young man, his face full of solemnity. The young man, however, seemed to have no idea of the old man, and drank as he touched his glass.
These two people still don't have any communication, these two people still seem to be doing their own things, these two people seem to be two people in two different worlds, but ......
But the loneliness just now is gone. The old man no longer seems lonely!
It's not because the old man's eyes are looking at Han Yu, and it's not because the old man's face has changed, but because it's ...... Rather, the space reverberated with the crunch of wine glasses clashing one after another.
When do the glasses touch? Because there are two people drinking, the wine glasses can touch, so there is a crisp sound.
And because there are two people drinking, they are not alone. Because there was a crisp sound between them, connecting two spaces that were not originally in the same space.
The old man finally stopped looking at Han Yu, but once again lowered his gaze to the air, on the bright moon. Slowly, the old man's solemn face softened, and the old man's cloudy eyes seemed to be no longer so cloudy.
"What are you doing here? If there is anything that is asked to me, the direct question is, I want to answer you, and I will answer you. I don't want to answer you, no matter how much you do, it's useless. ”
The old man finally spoke, but his voice was very cold and indifferent, as if every word he uttered would be a little colder. His indifference was even more aloof than usual.
But isn't it because his emotions are a little excited that his voice will be more indifferent and different from usual? Is it because he is no longer in another world that he is emotional?
Han Yu didn't ask a question, but looked at the old man and said sincerely, "Although I don't know why, I feel a sense of loneliness from you. This loneliness is not because you don't want to be near others, or because others don't want to be near you. It's a ...... A sense of distance.
It's like you don't belong here at all, as if you shouldn't be here at all. So you feel lonely. And what I'm trying to say is, no matter where you're from, now that you're here, you shouldn't feel like you're far from here.
Because you're already here!
Probably that's what comes and what happens, right? ”
The old man's brows furrowed slightly, his eyes stared at Han Yu without blinking, his eyes were full of confusion, he couldn't imagine that Han Yu would be able to see some of his own things, let alone that Han Yu would be able to say such a thing.
Because you are here, no matter how out of place with you, how unworthy of your identity is, how unsuitable for your existence, you are already here. And because you're already here, you're out of place here.
This is a very reluctant logic, but this logic seems to be so rigorous and impeccable.
"I have to admit that you are even better than I imagined, whether it is the qualifications for cultivation or the perception of everything in the world, you have your own unique understanding. And most importantly, your words have solved the confusion and uncomfortable feelings that I don't know how many years. ”
The old man looked at Han Yu seriously, as if he wanted to see Han Yu through, and wanted to see clearly this guy who was beyond the comprehension of ordinary people in terms of both thought and cultivation.
Then, the old man probably realized that he couldn't see anything from Han Yu's calm face, so he withdrew his gaze and asked, "Say, if you want to know something, maybe I'll tell you now that I'm glad to tell you." ”
"Actually, I really want to ask, how powerful is your cultivation? From the first time I saw you, I felt that you were not simple, because I also knew some people, and those people were very powerful, and it was only in those people that I could feel the breath of you. ”
Han Yu raised his first question.
"The world is the basis of our lives, and in this world we can only act according to the rules. But there are often some people who don't want to follow the path and move, but want to do what their hearts want to do without stopping. Then these people have their own world, a world that separates themselves from this world. ”
The old man did not answer Han Yu's words directly, but said such a nonsensical sentence.
But Han Yu read something from this passage, so his eyes couldn't help but widen, and he stared at the old man. Although he had already guessed in his heart, Han Yu still didn't expect that there would be such a powerful existence in a mere imperial city.
And because he didn't expect the old man to be so strong, Han Yu was even more curious about the old man.
Can you not wonder what is the reason why a ridiculously powerful person is hiding in this corner in obscurity?
Is it a tranquil heart that sees through the red dust and doesn't want to participate in this world anymore? But it's clear that the old man didn't do that. If it weren't for this, why did the old man teach Huang Pudong a lesson in the first place?
If it weren't for that, why did the old man just say that he had been confused and uncomfortable all along?
So, who exactly is this old man? And why is he hiding here?
"Who are you, senior, and why are you here?"
Han Yu finally asked his own question.
