Volume 1 Blizzard Days in Phoenix Chapter 30 The Vicissitudes of the Four Eyes
"Sir, do you stay or eat?" The shopkeeper of the Totem Inn asked an old man who walked into the store.
The old man looked up at the wooden sign on the counter, his drooping eyelids trembled, and said, "Your inn accommodation is really expensive, and the old man still sleeps on the tree." ”
The shopkeeper laughed and said, "Haha! Sir, you're laughing, why don't you go and sit down over there, and I'll have someone give you some food? The shopkeeper never believed that such an old gentleman, who could not even walk steadily, could climb a tree and sleep.
"No, no, you fill the old man's wine gourd for the old man, and ask for the strongest and cheapest good wine."
"Okay, old man, wait a minute, I'll go and fill it for you in person, a pot of Phoenix Mountain Divine Spring Water Centennial Agar Syrup, and I won't charge you money. Ha ha! "The shopkeeper has been in the totem building for decades and has read countless people. Although the old man is old, he doesn't look like an ordinary old man.
"Linglong!" Di hurried to catch up and took Linglong's hand.
"Husband, I'm sorry, Linglong is a little excited." Linglong wiped the tears from her cheeks, and Ren Di hugged her into her arms.
"Your wine, old sir." The shopkeeper handed the wine gourd to the old man and looked at the husband and wife who ran to the lobby.
The old man hugged the wine gourd, hooked the corners of his mouth on both sides, and nodded to Di with a smile.
Di respectfully bowed to the old man.
"It's good to be young, well, this wine is really fragrant, better than Wangcheng Yulu, but the old man is used to drinking spirits!" The old man muttered to himself, leaned over his old waist, and walked to the door tremblingly.
Shepherd's heart was relieved when she saw her daughter and son-in-law hugging each other, but when her eyes swept to the old man who had already walked to the door of the store, she felt a little familiar, as if she had seen this back somewhere.
"Shopkeeper, can we arrange our room? I'm going to take my wife back to her room to rest. Di asked the shopkeeper at the counter.
"Di Gongzi, in Xia Luoyunsong, six of the best rooms have been arranged for several distinguished guests. There is something to call Luo Yunsong at any time. "Luo Tong, take Di Gongzi and the others to the Phoenix Court on the fourth floor!"
"Yes! Mrs. Di, please, old lady, a few girls, please. "A guy came up and led the group upstairs.
"Thank you, Shopkeeper Luo." Di led Linglong back to the room.
The shopkeeper Luo handed it away.
"Uncle, miss, Miss Fengyang doesn't know where she has gone, and she is no longer in the room." Xiaohuan ran over and said.
"It's okay, she'll come back when she's tired of playing."
Phoenix Academy, the first academy in Phoenix's thousands of years of history, is currently the only academy in the city, although there are still nine more under construction. It has a history of nearly 1,000 years, and its founder, Mr. Feng, has always been the most mysterious old man in Phoenix.
The Phoenix Academy is as big as two city lords' mansions, and is surrounded by eight different types of schools: the Martial Academy, the Dongtian Academy, the Fenghua Academy, the Herb Academy, the Array Court, the Jiuzhou Academy, the Spirit Beast Academy, and the Tianyan Academy, each of which has its own library building. The center of the academy is Xingchen Lake, and Xingchen Lake has the richest collection of books in Xingchen Building, Xingchen Building has seven floors, nearly a thousand years, Mr. Feng has been staying in Xingchen Building, rarely stepping out of the range of Xingchen Lake, stepping out of the academy is only a few times.
At this time, Mr. Feng was sitting in front of the bookcase flipping through the bamboo slips, and suddenly his head tilted, as if he dared to respond to something. Then it was "plop!" With a sound, the sound of someone jumping into the lake was heard.
Old Mr. Feng got up, his figure was just a blur, and he came to the purple sycamore by the Xingchen Lake, however, as soon as he turned around, he found that there was one more person behind him, looking at each other for a long time, speechless.
The person who came was the old man who rode a donkey into the city and begged for wine in the totem inn, the old man trembled, moving step by step, his steps were very heavy, and his heart was very excited.
Looking at Mr. Feng again, a mist also appeared in his cloudy old eyes, his hands trembled and slowly raised, and then solemnly opened his arms, drew a semicircle and bowed his hands, his two thumbs were erected in an inverted eight shape, his waist was bent down ninety degrees, and he respectfully bowed to the old man.
The old man's tears flowed from under his drooping eyelids, and he, like Mr. Feng, bowed down and returned an equally heavy salute, their hands were pressed together, trembling, and slowly, their hands were grasped together. Still respectful, crying silently.
......A little girl of three or four years old came out of the lake, holding a small fish glowing blue in her hand, with round eyes and long eyelashes, blinking and staring at the two old men who saluted each other, wondering what they were doing.
In the lake was Xiao Fengyang, who swallowed the small fish glowing blue in his hand and jumped to the shore.
"Grandpa, what are you doing, aren't you tired of bending over like this?"
However, the two old men didn't seem to hear Xiao Fengyang's question.
His body trembled, still very excited.
Xiao Fengyang got under the hands of the two old men, looked at them left and right, and suddenly stretched out his little hand.
"Ahh "Ahh
The two old men screamed in pain at the same time, and finally lifted their bodies, but their bodies were rickety, and it was impossible to straighten their waists in this life.
"Little doll, what are you doing with the old man's beard!" Mr. Kaede shouted.
"The old man lived for more than a thousand years, and no one dared to pull off one of his beards. Old madman, this girl is your granddaughter? The old man also shouted.
"Kaede doesn't know this little girl." "Child, the old man is very curious, how did you get into my Star Illusion?" Old Man Feng bent down and asked Xiao Fengyang, at this time he did not have the unfathomable demeanor he had before.
"Star Fantasy? What's that, is it delicious? Xiao Fengyang looked around, as if looking for what the old man said about the illusion of the stars, and then she said boringly:
"It seems that only the small fish here are delicious, I'm going to eat the fish!"
"Plop, Xiao Fengyang jumped into the lake again."
Mr. Feng's body shook and shouted, "Fish? Little girl, did you eat my star fish? ”
"Oh, girl, come out quickly, the star fish has not grown yet, and you can't eat it at this time!" Old man Feng walked around the lake in a hurry, patting his thighs.
"Old madman, hurry up and recite the magic trick and take back the star fish!" When the old man heard the star fish, he was also anxious, it was really a treasure.
"Yes, yes!" Mr. Feng was so anxious that he forgot about this method, he took out the small purple gourd, and muttered the mantra in his mouth, and saw a small star fish glowing blue, flying quickly towards the small gourd, and drilled into the mouth of the gourd.
Xiao Fengyang jumped up from the lake and chased after the star fish.
"Hehe!" She shouted, grabbing one in one hand and landing on the shore of the lake.
"Huh? Grandpa, do you have this little gourd too? Xiao Fengyang looked curiously at Mr. Feng's gourd that collected the small fish, and did not forget to stuff a star fish into his mouth.
"Don't eat...... Ah...... Rotten fish! Old man Feng was so distressed that he almost spit out a mouthful of old blood.
