Chapter Forty-Seven: The Mysterious Old Man

Lin Xue helped the weak Shao Jian to his home, and an old man walked out of the stream, watching the two gradually walk away with a strange smile on his face.

This old man is Lin Xue's grandfather, of course he will not peep at his granddaughter, but has just arrived, although the creek is far away from home, ordinary people can't hear it at all, but the old man is a master who hurriedly came when he heard the cry for help, and Lin Xue had already put on his clothes after coming. He saw a young man covered in injuries lying in Lin Xue's arms, and thought that his granddaughter was shy, so he didn't come out, and watched in the bushes not far from the stream.

Looking at the backs of the two, the old man stroked his long gray beard and smiled, "Alas, young, it's just good!" So saying, he flew in the direction of the house, for he was going to get home before his granddaughter and the young man.

What catches your eye is a quaint courtyard, which is quaint but not dilapidated. From the outside of the courtyard, the octagonal cornices, red glazed tiles and the overall refreshing color of the courtyard give people a comfortable feeling, and the courtyard is surrounded by green trees, all of which are tall trees, and the trees grow very luxuriantly. The trees and the houses echo each other, giving this quaint place a natural atmosphere. The most bizarre thing is that from the center of the courtyard, there is a giant tree, it seems that the whole yard is built around this giant tree, a layer of light blue flowers on the wall is in full bloom, exuding a faint fragrance such as musk and orchid, simple and elegant, people can't help but immerse themselves in it.

"Xanadu!" Seeing the beautiful scenery in front of him, Shao Jian couldn't help but sigh.

Lin Xue said with a smile, "This is what my grandfather built, probably for decades." It's beautiful though, and it's not lonely at all to live here. ”

"If I were allowed to live here for the rest of my life, I wouldn't be lonely!" The worldly deception made Shao Xian exhausted. Sometimes Shao Jian can't help but think that if I give myself a paradise, even if I am unaccompanied, I can spend my life there. There is a paradise in front of me, but it's a pity that it's not my own. . .

Seeing Shao Jian's stunned appearance, Lin Xue couldn't help but hide her mouth and snicker, this smile didn't matter, Shao Jian, who was awakened by Lin Xue's laughter, turned his head and looked at it, and was stunned by Lin Xue's coquettish smile.

Seeing that Shao Jian didn't look at the courtyard, he actually stood there and looked at himself blankly, a red glow flew on his face, Lin Xue was ashamed and angry, and unconsciously, his hands holding Shao Jian gradually let go...

"Oops!" Squatting on the ground, Shao Jian shouted.

"Ahh Lin Xue hurriedly helped Shao Jian up, and said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, I... I didn't mean to... ”

Shao Jian smiled bitterly: "It's okay, it's just a fall, it's not in the way." ”

"Who's coming? Cher. An old man's voice came from inside the courtyard, and it was loud.

"Grandpa, I met an injured man and brought him back, maybe he was lost in the tour." Lin Xue then remembered that on the way here, he didn't ask Shao Jian where he came from, and after looking at the injuries on his body, he could only find a reason to prevaricate.

opened the courtyard door, and a domineering spirit that defied the world rushed towards him. Shao Jian couldn't help but be stunned, if from the outside, this courtyard looked like a virgin with a whisper, then from the inside, it was the overlord who conquered the world. Shao Jian was secretly surprised in his heart, and sighed that this trip was worthwhile, and he was able to see such a building.

The courtyard is actually full of blooming flowers, and it looks purple and red from a distance. The delicacy of begonias, the refinement of chrysanthemums, the softness of narcissus, and the budding bones... Shao Jian thought that he had read a lot of books since he was a child, but what he didn't expect was that there were many flowers here that he didn't know.

An old man is bending down to scoop water from a wooden barrel next to him and water flowers. The clear water falling on the flowers, shining in the sunlight, is all so harmonious, as if it were a picture in itself. Shao Jian couldn't help but feel ashamed in his heart, it was he who broke into this picture scroll and broke the peace of this world.

The old man raised his head, a fine light flashed in his eyes, and looked at Shao Jian, who couldn't help but be stunned. After a while, the old man withdrew his eyes and said with a smile: "Young man, the injury is not light, go to the house and rest." ”

The old man's first impression to Shao Jian was mystery. There are a pair of sharp eyes under the old appearance, but the old age is so energetic, and the gray hair and gray long beard are so shiny, which is really incomprehensible.

"Grandpa, they haven't eaten for two days, I'll go and make him something to eat first." Lin Xue saw that her grandfather agreed to let Shao Jian in, and said to her grandfather with a happy face.

"Hmm." The old man said with a light smile.

Shao Jian shook his head and didn't think about it anymore, and walked into the living room with Lin Xue's support.

"You sit down in the hall first, and I'll make you something to eat." Smiling at Shao Jian, Lin Xue turned around and walked out of the hall, with a large figure.

The furnishings in the room are very simple, but everywhere shows a sense of atmosphere, in the middle of the hall is a table of eight immortals, on the tea tray, on the tea tray is placed a teapot and a few teacups, to Shao Jian's surprise, these are actually carved from jade. Looking at the color, the entire tea tray, teapot and teacup are actually carved from a piece of jade. If it was just these, Shao Jian would not be surprised, what really surprised Shao Jian was that the jade carved into these things was actually the best Hetian jade. The color is elegant, round and uniform, almost transparent, which is clearly the characteristic of the best jade! This real Hetian jade has long ceased to be produced in China, let alone such a superb jade?

Looking at the tea tray, Shao Jian couldn't help but wonder even more, what kind of mysterious person is this old man?

While Shao Jian was pondering, the old man had already walked in quietly.

"Young man, you also know jade?" The old man said to Shao Jian with a smile.

"Ahh This question scared Shao Jian to the core, the arrival of the old man Shao Jian didn't hear a sound at all, if it was a person who had an enmity with himself, then... Thinking of this, Shao Jian couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat behind his back.

"Huh... Seeing Shao Jian's frightened appearance, the old man stroked his beard and smiled. "Don't be nervous, young man."

"Huh... Hehe. Hearing the old man's words, Shao Jian also smiled, but this smile was more ugly than crying, and he said without confidence, "Master. . . Grandpa, what did you just ask? I didn't hear clearly ... ”

"I just said, do you know jade too?" The old man shook his head and smiled.
