Chapter 20: Old Man Tang

Zhao Fan saw the signs of the coming moon through Lin Qianqian's face, so he smiled apologetically at Li Guodong and said, "I'm sorry to wait downstairs for a while, I'll send you off." ”

"Go ahead, not for a moment." Li Guodong is happy.

Zhao Fan sent Lin Qianqian to the school gate, and on the way, she said depressedly: "Zhao Fan, can you not call me cheap to the outside world in the future?" It's an ancient name, it's weird, and it's not good. ”

"There's no way, my uncle and grandfather are an old antique, and I've been messing with him for too long, so I'll be like this when I say it." Zhao Fan sighed, and at this time he had arrived in front of the Bentley that Uncle Wang drove.

“……”

Lin Qianqian rolled her eyes helplessly, "Then I'll go back first, and be careful about the weasel outside." ”

"Okay."

Zhao Fan looked at the car and walked away, then turned around and returned to the downstairs of the music department, Li Guodong was rubbing his legs and beating his waist, and he said, "I've been waiting for a long time, where are we going?" ”

"The car is ready, I'll talk about it on the road." Li Guodong led Zhao Fan to a black Audi parked not far away.

As soon as Zhao Fan entered the car, he saw that the driver was a practitioner, experienced and resolute, and had been stained with blood, and nine times out of ten he was born as a soldier. Li Guodong introduced: "This is the guard of my old friend, and now I will tell you about the situation." My old friend used to be a very important general, named Tang Yixiong, who had no heirs, and his wife died of illness twenty years ago, and he never remarried, just an adopted little girl. ”

"General Donal?" Zhao Fan was stunned for a moment, nodded and said, "I have heard about his deeds, which is worthy of admiration." The other day you said that he has been very strange lately, he seems to be living in a dream all day, and he doesn't realize it himself, what's going on? ”

"About last week, I went to his house to play." Li Guodong said while recalling: "Yixiong's daughter rarely comes back in the army, and the originally deserted home has become different from the inside out. For example, the quilts and furniture have become young and young, but they are quite old-fashioned. And there are two pillows, there are beautiful embroidered shoes on the shoe cabinet, the yard is also drying women's clothes, my nose is very sensitive, there is a faint smell of perfume at home, even the nanny who has worked there for five years has been dismissed, and even stipulates that the guards are not allowed to enter the door without permission for half a step, in short, there is a word everywhere, strange! ”

Then, he pointed to the guard in front of him and said, "Xiao Zhao, they have never seen any woman in or out except for Yixiong, and they don't even know how things came from, and the dishes and chopsticks that are usually eaten, Yixiong also has to prepare a double portion, and the food is clean." I couldn't help but ask, he shook his head a little shyly, saying that it was not the right time, but his mentality is getting younger and younger, and he is not as lonely as he used to be. ”

"It's really not normal." Zhao Fan asked thoughtfully: "How long has this situation lasted?" ”

Li Guodong said to Xiao Zhao: "Don't worry, this is a really capable master, don't look down on it because of his youth, he is definitely not a charlatan, otherwise I wouldn't let him show Yixiong." ”

Xiao Zhao said suspiciously: "It's been nearly a month." ”

As a soldier, he has quality, and even if he is disdainful in his heart, he will not snub and ridicule.

"If things are abnormal, there must be demons, there are many possibilities like this, wait until you get to the Tang family, I'll take a look at it specifically." Zhao Fan couldn't figure it out for a while based on what he heard, so he couldn't give a definite answer, but Old Man Tang must have bumped into something evil.

As he finished speaking, he leaned back in his seat with his eyes closed.

After an hour, they arrived at Tang's house, an elegant old-fashioned mansion with two equally resolute guards at the door.

Zhao Fan and Li Guodong got out of the car, and Xiao Zhao took them into the courtyard. At a glance, it is indeed as Li Guodong described, there are women's clothes hanging on the clothes pole, and there are even belly pockets and bandeaus. However, he opened his eyes to heaven, but he did not see anything unusual in the courtyard.

"Donald should be sleeping at dusk now, should I call him?" Xiao Zhao said.

Li Guodong waved his hand and said, "No, go and get busy with you, let's take a look first, and when Hui Yixiong wakes up, he will come down." ”

"Okay." Xiao Zhao nodded.

Li Guodong and Zhao Fan walked into the main entrance of the two-story building, they smelled a faint smell of perfume, and then came to the hall, Zhao Fan glanced at the four treasures of the study, beads, scrolls and calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall on the shelf, and asked casually: "Old man Tang likes to play calligraphy and painting?" ”

"Yes, yes." Li Guodong sighed and said: "After retiring, Yixiong has such a hobby left in addition to his daughter, and he is also the honorary president of the Jiangbei Calligraphy and Painting Association." Write and draw every day, or collect some calligraphy and paintings on the eyes, but most of them are not from the hands of famous artists but have a good foundation, after all, they are honest and have no money. Although the majesty is all in the past, but the name of the person, the shadow of the tree, every birthday there are still many dignitaries to give gifts, including many famous masters, but he will hold the night to sleep and then ask the guards to return. ”

After a while, he said again: "Master Xiaofan, do you see what?" ”

"Based on the appearance of the hall and courtyard alone, there is no such thing as a hall or a courtyard for the time being." Zhao Fan shook his head and said, "When Old Man Tang wakes up, visit this house from place to place, and you will almost find any clues." By the way, until we figure it out, don't show the purpose of our trip, lest we be rejected by it, that would be tricky. ”

He was also quite puzzled, in this mansion, he didn't feel the slightest hint of demonic energy, evil energy, ghost energy and a series of strange signs, what changed Tang Yixiong?

Zhao Fan preliminarily speculated that the other party seemed to come from the old era rather than the modern era, because it was not only the women's clothes in the yard, but also the important point, it was the elegant fragrance floating in the air, which was by no means a perfume, but a smell that would only appear when the traditional rouge, gouache and sachets were mixed together!

"I understand." Li Guodong had a lot of time, and he was not in a hurry, so he turned out the tea leaves, made a pot, and chatted with Zhao Fan while drinking.

After half an hour, the sound of unhurried footsteps sounded upstairs, and soon, an old man on crutches came down, smiling like bathed in spring light, when he saw the two, he was stunned and said: "Guodong, you won't wake me up when you come, how many years of friendship are still so polite, huh?" This is ......"

Li Guodong introduced: "He is Zhao Fan, I fell on the street that day, he dared to help, and then he became a New Year's friend, Zhao Xiaoyou has a virtue with you, loves calligraphy, painting and play, today I will bring you to see it." ”

"These days, there are not many people who dare to help the elderly." Tang Yixiong looked at Zhao Fan with a flash of approval in his eyes, "Moreover, I don't worship foreign flattery, but focus on traditional Chinese culture." ”

"I've seen Old Man Tang." Zhao Fan stood up and saluted.

"Okay, sit down, you're welcome here."

Tang Yixiong took another teacup, he poured it and drank it and said: "The conditions are simple, the hospitality is not good, forgive me." ”

"It's an honor for juniors to sit and talk to you." Zhao Fan decided to test it, so he said with a natural expression: "I look at Donald's complexion, it seems that there is a happy event coming?" ”

"Oh? Will the little friend look at the face? Tang Yixiong asked with a smile.

Zhao Fan said modestly: "A little involved in metaphysics, if there is anything to be presumptuous, please Haihan." ”

"Yes, Xiao Fan knows a little bit about this, I've shown it before, don't say it, it's quite accurate." Li Guodong fanned the wind and fire on the side.

Tang Yixiong pointed to his face with great interest and said, "Come and see how my face is?" ”

Zhao Fan nodded, looking directly at the other party's face, the upper stop is long and full, which means that the young man is ambitious, and the middle stop is the same, and the lower stop is upright but not heavy, this is a lonely trend, the wife has been dead for a long time and has no heirs, and the adopted daughter has not been at home for a long time has also been confirmed. However, in the 12 signs of the face, the couple's palace, which symbolizes affection at the end of the eyes, has a pox, so that the skin that was originally wrinkled and sunken is slightly puffy.

This is a sign that the old tree has budded, indicating that Tang Yixiong had a relationship not long ago and continues to exist today. And on the edge of this pox, the bloodshot is faintly visible, which means that it is a great omen, and it is caused by love!

Zhao Fan thought for a while, and then showed a look of embarrassment, "The younger generation is not good at learning art, maybe he is wrong." ”

Saying this, it aroused Tang Yixiong's curiosity, and he laughed loudly: "It's okay, just say anything, I'll just listen to the picture." ”

"That'...... All right. Zhao Fan smiled and took Tang Yixiong's hand and said, "Old man Tang, are you in love?" ”

At the same time, he quietly injected a trace of dragon yang qi into the other party's aged body and retracted it, sensing that the functions of many organs were constantly weakening, but this speed was faster than normal debilitation, but it was not too outrageous, at least it would not have any impact on daily life for half a year.

Tang Yixiong blushed and said embarrassedly: "Where is it, where is it." ”

Li Guodong next to him saw this reaction, and knew that what Zhao Fan said was very right, so he raised his eyebrows and said: "Yixiong, you don't pay attention to it, I have long felt that you seem to have opened a second spring, and the whole person is a lot younger, and you don't introduce me to it, you can't keep hiding it, right?" ”

Tang Yixiong shook his head and said, "The age difference is too big to speak." ”

"Where's she?" Li Guodong asked.

"I'm back to my parents' house in the afternoon." Tang Yixiong said: "Another day, I will let you meet." ”

Li Guodong didn't want to ask too much, so he changed the conversation and said: "By the way, I know that your collection of good words and paintings are all on it, now how about we take Xiaofan to open his eyes?" ”

Tang Yixiong didn't want to continue the previous topic, so he nodded happily, "Cheng, there are no famous works, but they are all excellent works worth watching." ”

Zhao Fan helped Tang Yixiong, walked up the stairs with Li Guodong, and soon came to the second floor.

The next moment, when his Heavenly Eye opened again, he knew the root of all this weirdness......
