Chapter 1 Preface

Next Chapter

In the quiet courtyard, the warm sunlight is shining, several small beasts of different shapes are chasing and playing, and the breeze blows to take away some peace.

In a room with white as the main tone, the pale young man showed a painful look on his face, and his body trembled incessantly, as if he was going through some ordeal.

After a long time, the trembling gradually stopped, the pain slowly disappeared, and although the paleness on his face was still there, it no longer looked so weak. Suddenly, his eyelashes fluttered, and the boy's eyes slowly opened.

"Where is this, why am I here?" the boy turned his head to look around.

The room is decorated in white, with a few pots of flowers and plants on the windowsill, giving it a quiet and peaceful atmosphere.

Lifting the plain white quilt, he slowly sat on the edge of the bed with his hands up, closed his eyes and felt the power gradually recovering in his body, and the young man breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'll have a little more time to live!" said the boy laughing at himself, got up and put on the shoes that had been placed beside the bed, pushed open the door of the room, and walked out.

"Young man, you've been asleep for half a month, I really didn't expect you to come back to life!" came an old voice. "According to your situation at the time, I would not be surprised that you died immediately, I didn't expect you to really survive!

It was a white-haired old woman, dressed in a washed and white-haired gown, who was sitting at the dining table eating, and from time to time she looked at the young man, as if she was thinking about something. A black kitten was sleeping on the old woman's lap, and except for the boy who first appeared and looked up, he continued to nest in the old woman's lap and fell asleep.

"If you don't mind, just eat with me, I don't usually have many people in this place, it's too deserted. The old woman spoke again. "Then I don't mind. The boy had been in a coma for half a month, and although he had already thought that the old woman must have fed him some nutritious food, the hunger in his stomach still kept coming, so he simply went to the table and sat down, and began to eat.

The food on the table is very simple, two dishes and a bowl of white porridge, the taste is just like that, although the young man has an empty stomach, but first, his body is weak, and secondly, the food is just a little, and he can only cushion his stomach after eating it all.

The young man who recovered a little strength after the meal took the initiative to take over the washing work and went to clean the dishes and chopsticks. The old woman just sat on the side and watched quietly, stroking the black cat in her hand while thinking thoughtfully.

"I think we can talk about it now, you should have a lot of questions, right?" The old woman looked at the young man who came out of the kitchen and said slowly.

"That's what I thought, too. The boy replied.

Outside, on the verdant grass, a teenager and an old woman are basking in the sun.

The young man frowned slightly, as if he was thinking about something, and the old woman on the other side was making tea, and her technique was very skillful.

"If you want to drink something, is it okay to make a clear tea? I'm still very satisfied with my own tea. As if seeing the young man's embarrassment, the old woman took the initiative to speak.

"No, no, I'm still more used to drinking water. The young man came back to his senses and hurriedly waved his hand.

"My name is Woo Ho and I am an orphan, thank you for saving me this time, grandma. After taking a sip of the water handed over by the old man, the young man spoke. "Call me Grandma Sang, which little ones usually like to call me that, and there is one thing you mistaken, it was not me who saved you and brought you back, but someone else, I am only responsible for taking care of you during this time, but you really surprised me. The old man took a sip of tea and said with a smile.

"When you were brought to me, you were covered in wounds, the fire of life was about to be extinguished, and I could only deal with your external injuries by all means, and I could only watch you step towards death day by day, but there was nothing I could do. I didn't expect you to wake up suddenly today, I carefully observed you just now, compared with ordinary people, you are only weaker, and other aspects are almost the same. If I hadn't double-checked you before, I would have thought you were the secret heir of a family?" said the old woman leisurely, touching the black kitten on her lap by the way.

Yu Hao was silent, he knew his own affairs best, the boy had already thought of many ways to solve his problems, and finally chose a method that others didn't dare to think of to prolong his life.

"Anyway, I still want to thank you, the medicine for my treatment should be expensive, is there anything I need to pay?"

"There aren't many little guys like you these days, don't worry, the guy who rescued you back said that all the expenses are recorded in his account, and you don't need to pay a penny. The old woman smiled and spoke.

Yu Hao was full of doubts in his heart, he thought to himself that he had never known such a rich person, how could someone save him, he had lived for so many years, and he had not done anything good. Forget it, take it one step at a time, count it one step at a time!

When Yu Hao was about to speak, Sang Lao said again. "Some things are still waiting for that person to come and tell you, that's all I know, you can live with me during this time, anyway, I'm alone, it's nothing more than you, you can also go out for a walk when you have time, this place is still quite big." I still have some things to go first, let's talk about it in the evening!" the old man slowly got up and prepared to leave.

"May you take the liberty of asking, what is this place?"

The old man walked out of the courtyard slowly, leaving only a clear word, "Spiritual Courtyard".
