(79) The old man

Suddenly, the strange phenomenon he saw with Yin Ruchen that day appeared in front of his eyes again. Immediately after, he remembered the prophecy of the wizard of the East Gate, and remembered the words of the old man he met in the dead woods, and he suddenly hated himself: Yan Moying, Yan Moying, why are you so useless?! Your trip is for the people of Jingyin Kingdom, and you have come here all the way, and you have a hesitant thought, are you still a person who stands up to the sky? Your conscience has not been eaten, your responsibility is duty-bound, and you can't hesitate at all in this situation, only rush forward and rush forward without hesitation!

Yan Moying immediately stepped on the winding stone road and walked quickly.

The front didn't seem to be as dangerous as he thought, the sun was shining brightly, and there was a lot of greenery, which made him feel free and comfortable.

It was a long walk, and the road seemed to have no end until a cave appeared in front of it.

He continued along the gravel path and entered the cave, where he came to another cave entrance after a short walk.

Exiting the cave, he found himself in a completely different situation - the air was bitterly cold, and the wind was blowing like goose feathers.

He inadvertently looked back at the way he had come—the entrance to the cave was gone, leaving only the towering mountain. Falling snow covered the gravel road, making the route less and less visible.

Yan Moying kept wading through the snow covered on the gravel road with his feet, groping his way forward.

The sky was getting darker, the snow was falling below his knees, and he was able to resist the cold, until he saw the faint light of the candle in the distant wooden house, and he felt less cold than before.

He was getting closer and closer to the cabin.

[Chapter 27]

The door of the wooden house suddenly opened, and a person walked out of it: "Good boy, I really didn't see the wrong person!" It's frozen, come in and warm up! ”

Yan Moying looked at it intently-this person was the old man he had met in the dead wood forest!

He remembered the dream at once, and understood why the first time he met the old man in the dead woods, he thought he was a little familiar, and it turned out that this person was the one he had dreamed of and said to him, "Beginning...... This is your fate......" old man, this old man is dressed exactly as in his dream.

"Huh?! It's really a senior! Juniors meet seniors! Yan Moying said.

"Of course it's me! How? Who do you think it will be? Don't believe me? The old man said with a smile as he led Yan Moying into the wooden house. The warmth of the wooden house and the cold and windy conditions outside are like two worlds.

"The juniors just don't understand." Yan Moying continued.

"What's not to understand? Just ask, and I'll let you know. After the old man entered the door, he took the kettle from the stove and poured the water into the bowl while saying to Yan Moying.

Yan Moying was just about to ask, but he saw a bundle of firewood next to the stove used by the old man, and the bundle of firewood turned out to be one of the bundles he had cut in the dead wood forest that day, and even the knot when tying it was the one he tied with his own hands, as if he had never been moved.

Seeing Yan Moying's somewhat surprised expression, the old man smiled, then handed a bowl with water to Yan Moying, and said, "Drink hot water to warm up!" ”

Yan Moying took the hot water and thanked the old man, but put the bowl on the table next to him and did not drink the water immediately.
