The sun slowly rose to the southern sky, and Uncle Hu and Gao Jin were serious in teaching and learning hard. With Uncle Hu's guidance, combined with the description of the cultivation theory of Taijiquan in the "Taijiquan Book", Gao Jin's learning and understanding speed is simply terrifying.

"Genius! Evil spirits! Unexpectedly, my Hu Yifu is old, and the loess is buried to half of his neck, so he can still meet such a piece of jade! Uncle Hu's heart was pleasantly surprised, excited and a little complicated.

Looking at Gao Jin, who was seriously immersed in the practice of Tai Chi under the sun, and watching him play Tai Chi more and more flavorful and meaningful, Hu Yifu's eyes flashed with light in his eyes, and he secretly made a decision in his heart: "Since God has sent such a genius to me, then I, Hu Yifu, will definitely carefully teach a real martial arts wizard in the next life." This kid will definitely become a real Tai Chi master in the future. ”

"Grandpa Hu, I always feel that there seems to be something wrong," Gao Jin, who finished beating once, couldn't help frowning and hurriedly came to Uncle Hu and said.

Uncle Hu patted Gao Jin's shoulder with a smile and said, "Xiao Jin, you have learned very well." Your understanding is far inferior to mine! However, this martial arts practice also requires a degree of relaxation, and if you want to be fast, you can't reach it! You see, the sun is getting high, and it's already noon. Aren't you hungry after a morning of practice? ”

"Grandpa Hu, as soon as you say 'hungry', I really feel a little hungry," Gao Jin couldn't help but touch his stomach and said with a smile.

"Haha, let's go to my house for dinner at noon!" Uncle Hu laughed loudly and said.

Gao Jin couldn't help but say, "Grandpa Hu, how can this be embarrassing?" Why don't we go out and eat! How about I treat you to a big meal? ”

"What? Don't like Grandpa Hu's food? Uncle Hu's eyes widened slightly.

"No, I" Gao Jin, who hurriedly waved his hand, could only smile helplessly: "Okay then!" Then I'll bother. ”

Grandpa Hu shook his head and smiled: "It's not a bother." Usually! I'm alone at home, and I'm very lonely. You can come and accompany me more, it's too late for Grandpa Hu to be happy! ”

"Huh? Grandpa Hu, are you alone in your family? What about your wife and children? Gao Jin asked in surprise.

"My wife and son both died a few years ago. I also have a daughter, but she lives out of town," Grandpa Hu said in a slightly lonely tone.

When Gao Jin heard this, he immediately apologized a little and hurriedly said, "Grandpa Hu, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have mentioned your sadness." ”

"It's okay, you don't know!" Uncle Hu shook his head and smiled unconcernedly.

Seeing this, Gao Jin, who was relieved, couldn't help but say, "Grandpa Hu, why didn't your daughter take you to live with her?" You live alone, can she rest assured? Or do you not want to bother your daughter too much? ”

"I live alone, I'm used to it," Uncle Hu said indifferently and casually.

However, Gao Jin on the side was keenly aware of the bitter taste that flashed in Uncle Hu's eyes. It seems that things may not be as simple as Uncle Hu said. But Uncle Hu obviously didn't want to say more, but Gao Jin didn't want to ask again.

Soon, Uncle Hu took Gao Jin to his residence.

"Wow, Grandpa Hu, your house is like a small park!" Standing in the courtyard of Uncle Hu's house, looking at some vegetables and flower bonsai planted in the courtyard, his eyes were bright Gao Jin, and finally his eyes fell on the ancient tree with lush leaves, dark green leaves, smooth bark and a slight sense of crystalline: "Huh? Grandpa Hu, what kind of tree is this? Seems a little special! ”

"I don't know what this tree is. However, it was handed down by my ancestors of the Hu family, and I ordered the descendants not to cut down anyone, otherwise they would be expelled from the family and erased from the family tree. According to legend, it has been guarded by the descendants of my Hu family for thousands of years," Uncle Hu stepped forward to the bottom of the tree, looked up at the branches and leaves on the tree and said slowly.

A thousand-year-old tree? Gao Jin was stunned when he heard this, and looked at this tree that seemed to be barely seven or eight meters tall with only one person's hands, and he really couldn't see that it looked like a thousand-year-old tree. Moreover, it is also an ancestral tree. Heirloom? A tree is a family heirloom, isn't that weird?

"Grandpa Hu, is there anything special about this tree?" Gao Jin couldn't help but ask curiously.

"The leaves don't wither or fall, is it special?" Grandpa Hu turned his head and looked at Gao Jin with a smile and asked.

Leaves don't wither or fall? Gao Jin listened a little incredulously. Could it be that the leaves on this tree have grown for thousands of years? Isn't that an antique? Moreover, after a thousand years of growth, this leaf grows so big? It's no different from ordinary leaves! That is, the eyes are darker, the leaves are slightly thicker, and the leaves seem to have a layer of slurry.

"This ancient tree exudes a special smell that repels mosquitoes, refreshes the mind and soothes the mood. And according to ancestral legend, the leaves of this ancient tree also have the effect of warding off evil spirits," Uncle Hua continued.

"Ward off evil spirits?" Gao Jin laughed dumbly when he heard this, but remembered his experience of dreaming that the underworld was reborn, and his eyes flashed and he couldn't help but say, "Grandpa Hu, can you give me a leaf?" I'd like to try to see if it has the effect of warding off evil spirits. ”

Uncle Hu couldn't laugh a little when he heard this: "It's just a rumor, do you really believe it?" ”

"That's it! Since you said it, then I'll pick a leaf for you," Uncle Hu said and directly reached out and grabbed a slightly delicate and small leaf from the hanging branch of the tree, and then suddenly exerted force in his hand, and with a low cracking sound, the leaf was plucked.

Gao Jin, who took the leaf from Uncle Hu's hand, couldn't help pinching and pulling it with both hands, and found that the leaf was really as hard as an iron piece, and Gao Jin couldn't tear it apart even if he tried to eat milk.

"Grandpa Hu, is this leaf made of iron?" Gao Jin, who was glaring, couldn't help but say: "Now I'm starting to believe a little, I'm afraid this tree is really extraordinary." ”

Uncle Hu shook his head and smiled, and then suddenly said, "Xiao Jin!" I want to tell you about this tree, don't just say it to outsiders, understand? ”

"Don't worry! Grandpa Hu, my mouth is very strict," Gao Jin nodded continuously.

Uncle Hu nodded with satisfaction and smiled: "That's good!" When my old man dies, I'm afraid I'll have to ask you to continue to guard this tree for me. When the time comes, that's what you're all about. What kind of trouble will you cause if you say it, but it's your own trouble! ”

"Uh" Gao Jin's eyes blinked when he heard this, and he was slightly stunned and speechless. Wipe! Are you still going to pass the tree to me? No, why am I feeling awkward again?

"Wait a minute, I'll cook!" Uncle Hu, who was laughing, walked directly to the kitchen on the side.

Cook? Gao Jin, who reacted when he heard this, couldn't help but hurriedly followed: "Grandpa Hu, are you cooking by yourself?" ”

"Hmmm! Oh, yes! I live alone, so could it be that I have someone to cook for me? Uncle Hu nodded.

"Grandpa Hu, why don't I come!" Gao Jin hesitated slightly and said with a smile.

Asking an old man to cook for himself, Gao Jin really felt embarrassed. The point is that Gao Jin doesn't believe in Uncle Hu's cooking skills a little!

"You're coming?" Uncle Hu raised his eyebrows and looked at Gao Jin with a smile: "Boy, can you eat the food you cook?" ”

Gao Jin was stunned when he heard this, and suddenly felt a little depressed in his heart. Yes, just now he was secretly questioning Uncle Hu in his heart! Now, he is questioned by Uncle Hu. Gao Jin admits that his cooking level is average, but as a senior otaku who needs to find his own food, the things he makes are still barely palatable.

"Then Grandpa Hu, I'll help you," Gao Jin said with a smile.

"Well, that's good, you can help me," Uncle Hu smiled and nodded: "Today, I will let you see the old man's craftsmanship." ”

Gao Jin pouted slightly when he heard this, and followed. Ah, if your old man's skills are good, why do you go out to eat?
