I don't know where Wu Xin's family is, and in order to prove that I have no intention of getting married to her at all, I didn't say a word to her along the way. It's just that her mom keeps asking me all kinds of questions, but these questions are probably just to lighten the mood, and they don't have any real meaning.

The car finally entered the city after running on the highway for more than two hours, and it is estimated that Wu Xin's family lives here.

This is a small fourth-tier city, I have been here a few times when I was out to do "business", I came here in the autumn, and I can't see too tall buildings in the most prosperous places in the city, and I haven't seen many cars on the road, and there are few people. It feels very cold. But if you want to talk about leisure and retirement, this is really a good place.

The greening in the urban area is very good, and the city is facing the river in the north and the mountain in the south. Whether in terms of feng shui or environment, this is a blessed land.

After passing through the city center, the car headed south, turned east when it was almost up to the mountain, and after walking for more than half an hour, the car drove to an old neighborhood on the outskirts of the city. The buildings here are completely different from those in the city, and they feel antique, as if they have traveled back to the Qing Dynasty.

In the end, the car stopped at the gate of a large courtyard, the scale of the courtyard is not small, the double gate alone is nearly three meters high, and there are two copper rings hanging on the door that are as thick as a hand, and it feels like it is really the prince's house in the Qing Dynasty.

After getting off the bus, I followed Wu Xin and his family of three into the courtyard, and then passed through the two rooms to a big house at the back. It's warm in the house, but it doesn't feel dry. Spread on the ground is something similar to tatami mats, and it feels warm and comfortable when you take off your shoes and step on it.

In a room facing the mountains facing the sun, an old man in his late teens sits in a rocking chair, looking out the window at the mountain scenery and smoking a cigarette pouch, feeling very relaxed.

Wu Xin's family of three knocked on the door a few times, and then entered the house to say hello to the old man, and when the old man saw them coming back, he immediately asked expectantly, "How is it?" Is it decided? ”

"They've all been brought back." Wu Xin's father replied ambiguously, and then immediately turned around and waved at me.

I had been prepared for a long time, and as soon as I saw this gesture, I immediately stepped into the house and came to the old man, and then bowed respectfully and said, "Hello grandpa." My name is Chang Le. ”

As soon as the old man saw me, he immediately sat up straight from the rocking chair, put down the cigarette pouch and pot, and beckoned again and again: "Come here, I'll see you." ”

I smiled and nodded. Walked to the old man's side.

Old Man Wu reached over and squeezed my arm hard, and I tensed my muscles.

"Yes, the kid's body is quite strong, with the demeanor of your grandfather, how are the eyes? I often say, are you chasing souls and yin and yang? The old man asked with a smile.

"Hmmm! The eyes can see, the hands can catch, and they are born to catch ghosts. I replied in the style of my grandfather's generation.

"It's good, it's good, it's good! Is your dad coming? The old man continued to ask.

"They didn't come, I'll come here today, and they'll come to visit you later. But if there is anything, you can tell me directly, although I am still a little younger, but now the Chang family is in charge of me, and I have the final say on everything. I said.

"Good! Young people should show this kind of courage, you are better than your father! Back then, I said that I would take your father as an apprentice and let him follow me, but he was still scared! "Remember the history of the talent.

Old Man Wu shook his head and smiled as he spoke, while I looked him up and down, guessing what he did when he was younger.

Don't look at his age, but the old man is very energetic, his eyes are bright, and his eyebrows are upside down, no worse than the aura of a young man. In addition, the moment he pinched my arm, I also felt that this old man had practiced, his hand strength was not small, I estimated that even now I can't compare to him, and his palms obviously have calluses, the position of the calluses is very similar to my grandfather, I can see that he often used knives when he was young.

"Although my dad is a literati, he is not timid, I guess his refusal to run with you must be my father's unwillingness, my family is a man in the previous generation, he has to consider the problem of leaving a descendant, do you say yes?" I said with a smile.

"Hmm!" The old man seemed to respond approvingly, and then nodded at me, "No wonder, no wonder, there is a person who does the main thing, he speaks very reasonably, and he knows how to protect his elders, which is rare!" Today's young people are very arrogant, it seems that Old Man Chang has put a lot of effort into you. ”

"When my father was alive, he often taught me not to be too arrogant, I have also suffered a lot of losses, and I haven't changed much until now." I'll be honest.

"Don't be humble in front of me, we're almost a family!" After speaking, the old man was happy "hahaha".

However, I didn't laugh with him, but kept the sternness on my face.

Old Man Wu immediately noticed it, he put away his smile, then looked at me with a frown and asked, "Boy, are you hiding something from me?" ”

"There is indeed something, it is about my marriage to Wu Xin." I said.

"Your family doesn't agree? Or do you disagree? The old man seemed to be a little upset.

"You misunderstood, not that you disagreed. Wu Xin and I have known each other since childhood, not to mention the two little guesses, childhood sweethearts, they can be regarded as familiar with each other, and Wu Xin and I are in a very special situation, and it is impossible to associate with people outside the circle, so it is most suitable for us to be together. ”

"What's the problem?" The old man continued to ask.

"It's a matter of time!"

"Time? You mean my life? ”

I didn't answer immediately, but looked at Wu Xin, and then at Wu Xin's parents.

The old man understood what I meant, and immediately waved his hand at Wu Xin's family of three and said, "You go out first, and I'll talk to him alone." ”

The three of them didn't say much, they all obediently withdrew and closed the door, and when they were sure that they were completely out of the house, and that they could not hear us anymore, the old man raised his hand and motioned to me, "It's just the two of us, you can say anything directly, there is nothing to worry about." ”

"Hmm." I nodded at the old man, and then said frankly: "Actually, time does not refer to you, it refers to myself, Wu Xin saw my lifespan, I still have 3 and a half days to live." ”

"What?" The old man got up from his rocking chair, and he was more than half a head taller than me!

"What's going on? You're not short-lived! If not, you will live here with me for the next few days, you will eat whatever I eat, don't go anywhere, I will look at you! The old man stared at me.

"Thank you for your kindness, but I'm afraid you won't be able to help with this, it's my arrogance that has caused trouble for myself." I also seemed to be infected by Wu Xin, and after sighing lightly, I told the old man everything about the decapitation case in the fire a few days ago, the stabbing of my sword, and the disappearance of the white tiger.

The old man listened very attentively, and interjected from time to time, and when I had said all the things, he slowly sat back down in his rocking chair, and then there was a long silence.

I didn't wait for the old man, but spoke first: "I don't know if you have made any agreement with my father, in short, you value me so much, I really feel very, very honored, but I have married Wu Xin for three and a half days, this is not a human thing, I can't do it anyway!" So I kowtowed to you, I'm sorry, and then ask your old man to give the heirloom to Wu Xin, she really cares about you very much! ”

After speaking, I knelt on the ground with my legs and kowtowed to the old man three times, which was regarded as a thank you for his kindness.

The old man took a puff of his cigarette and exhaled slowly, as if he was thinking about something. After a few moments he suddenly turned his gaze to me and stared into my eyes.

I didn't shy away from it, I just looked back at him.

"Come here!" The old man beckoned to me.

I thought he was going to say something to me, so I quickly got up and walked over, leaning forward in particular. Unexpectedly, the old man suddenly stretched out his arm and hit me in the heart with a fist.

I instinctively tensed my muscles and stepped back to unwind the punch, but even so, it hurt my heart so much that it felt like the bones in my chest had been broken.

I took 6 or 7 steps backwards, and finally I barely managed to hold on to the ground. But the old man's attack didn't seem to be over, he actually stood up from the rocking chair and rushed to me in three or two steps, his left hand swiped in front of me, and his right hand punched me in the left rib.

I hurriedly stepped back and dodged the old man's fist, but as soon as he hit the air, he came with a second punch, a third punch, and then another punch, and then another kick......

"Don't just hide, fight back!"

The old man shouted as he attacked me.

I don't know what this old man is thinking, but if he asks me to fight back, then I will fight back, if this is a contest between the principals of the Wu Chang family, then I can't lose the face of the old Chang family.

After dodging a few punches in a row, I started to fight back.

The old man is wider than me, and his arms and legs are longer than mine, but he is old after all, and his speed cannot keep up with my movements. But I didn't take advantage of him, but chose to get close to him, engage him in hand-to-hand grappling, and then turn the melee grappling into a grappling.

After fighting for less than half a minute, the old man obviously began to gasp, I seized an opportunity to reach out my right hand and grabbed the old man's left wrist, and then twisted the old man's arm with the reverse joint, pressing his body down, while he bent down, I also bent my right calf back, and hit his face with my heel.

The old man raised his left hand to block it, but my foot didn't really kick him in the face, just shook it and fell, and at the same time easily opened the old man's arm.

The old man didn't make any more moves on me, and after straightening his waist, he waved his hand at me with a smile and said: "I'm afraid of being young, it's really not good to be unconvinced, but if you can win me, it doesn't mean that you can beat others, as your elders and seniors, I will give you a word for your grandfather, and the next time you do it with someone, no matter whether the other party is a man or a woman or an old or a young person, don't show mercy, they will not be polite to you." ”

After saying that, the old man strode over to the rocking chair, and then threw a square object at me.

I raised my hand to take a look, and saw that it was an invitation with two large gilded letters written on it: Puja.

"The time is tomorrow night, I was going to go in person, but this time you will go on my behalf, if you can win, then I will promise you to give the heirloom to Wu Xin." Old man Wu said.
