A woman with tall temples and rich clothes is standing on the bridge, admiring a pond of fish playing with lotus flowers.
From time to time, a koi leaps up, passes through the lotus, and falls into another body of water, causing ripples.
The lottery shopkeeper stood aside quietly with his head lowered.
"Shopkeeper Luo, what are you doing in the backyard if you're not standing guard in front?"
"Reporting to the Heavenly Master, someone has sent a letter, and the letter is named and requires the Heavenly Master to personally open it."
"Huh? Bring the letter to me!"
The shopkeeper quickly handed over the letter. All he saw was a yellow envelope with an empty cover and nothing written on it.
Opening the envelope, there was a piece of paper inside, with a line of words written on it, "Gathering at Xiao Ran Pavilion in the east of the city!"
There is no name on the signature, but a vivid little fish is drawn.
The woman looked at Xiao Yu'er and couldn't help but trembled, "Where is the messenger?"
"It's a child and has been sent away!"
"Okay, I understand. Shopkeeper Luo, go ahead and do your work first!"
"Yes, Heavenly Master!"
Shopkeeper Luo bowed and bowed before exiting.
The woman stroked Xinyi, her mood could not be calm for a long time, and she murmured to herself.
"The fish plays with the lotus, you are finally here!"
"How have you been doing these past few years?"
At the same time, in Xiao Ran Pavilion in the east of the city, an old man stood alone in the pavilion, staring into the distance.
Observe carefully, you can see that this old man is blind, holding a stick in his hand, his thin figure stands in the wind, and his back is already slightly hunched.
This old man is the old blind man.
Under the pavilion, there is also a lotus pond. The pattern of lotus flowers in the pond is exactly the same as that in the backyard.
In the lotus pond, the fish are playing happily among the lotus flowers.
The wind blows! Leaves fall! The water in the lotus pond ripples slightly.
"You're here!" The old blind man raised his head and turned to the path under the pavilion, with a long-lost smile on his face.
"Yes!" the woman responded! She walked slowly into the pavilion and stood side by side with the old blind man.
"Brother Rui——, how have you been doing these years?" The woman's words were a little more choked.
"Hmm - not bad."
"Yilian is doing well, isn't she?"
"It's not bad, but I have to worry about all the big and small things in the meeting. It's tiring!"
"We are all old!" the old blind man murmured to himself.
"You can pick lotuses in the south of the Yangtze River. Lotus leaves are everywhere, and fish are playing among the lotus leaves. Fish are playing with lotus leaves to the east, fish are playing with lotus leaves to the west, fish are playing with lotus leaves to the west, and fish are playing with lotus leaves to the north!"
"Brother Rui, come back with me!" the woman groaned, suddenly turned around and grabbed the old blind man's arm.
The old blind man trembled slightly, "Yu Rui is no longer the same Yu Ruilong!"
"No, you will always be the fish in my heart, and I will always be the lotus in the pond. The fish playing with the lotus will never change!"
"A fish can't play with a lotus!" the old blind man sighed.
"But, that person is gone, isn't he? Why bother obsessing about yourself!"
"Brother Rui, come back with me. I'll put down the gang affairs, and you and I will forget each other forever, okay?"
"Hey, an old blind man is no longer useful!"
"The fish play with the lotus, and they will never be seen again!"
The woman's body shook and she pulled the old blind man's body violently.
"Your eyes?! What's wrong?"
The woman looked at the old blind man's white eyes, her body trembled violently, and tears burst into her eyes.
"Why didn't you tell me earlier!"
"This is all fate!" The blind man sighed, "Think of me, Yu Rui, who has told countless fortunes for others in my life, but in the end, when it was my turn, I couldn't do anything."
The woman stared at the person in front of her, her thoughts wandering back to forty years ago.
The two came from the same school, they were young heroes, and they fought in the world with swords together. The boy's name is Yu Rui, and he is born in Yushu Linfeng. He is talented, has a deadly swordsmanship that rarely meets his opponents, and has a wonderful divination technique for divination. The girl
Zhang Yilian has an unparalleled appearance, and her talent is as good as any man's. For a time, the two created a beautiful story in the world, a couple of gods and gods, and a legend in the world.
Until thirty years ago, when he met Chen Luo's father, Yu Rui followed Chen Luo's father and was busy starting a business. Until the accident twenty years ago, the old blind man became disheartened and fled to a foreign country. The two of them have been together since then.
We parted ways and never met again.
Zhang Yilian entered Taiping Dao and inherited the position of Heavenly Master. The old blind man took Xiao Chenluo and lived in the small town of Kule.
"The beautiful story of fish and lotus playing and cherishing each other has finally become a masterpiece."
Ten years is a blur of life and death, let alone twenty years?
As time goes by, what should be let go will eventually have to be let go.
"Brother Rui, come back with me. I will be your crutch from now on!" Zhang Yilian looked at the old blind man's old face and said still firmly.
After so many years, Zhang Yilian's appearance has still been maintained extremely well. Her skin is breakable and her hair is flowing in the wind. She stands side by side with the old blind man, just like father and daughter.
"Hey, Yi Lian, it's not that I don't want to follow you back. Do you know who the new champion is?"
"?——"
"Could it be——"
"His surname is also Chen!" The old blind man nodded.
"Understood!" Zhang Yilian held back tears.
"It's time for me to go back!" Two old servants came out from a distance, protecting Zhang Yilian and walking away.
Staring at the retreating figure, the old blind man's eyeballs were all white and blurred with tears unconsciously.
"Yilian, wait for me for a few more years!"
In a hidden place not far from the corner of the pavilion, Old Chen turned around and walked towards the old blind man.
"Hey, blind brother, what are you doing!"
"How about you go back?"
"Old Chen, I don't think so. It's just that if this matter is not revealed and clarified for a day, I will not be able to face Chen Luo's parents!"
"Let's go, let's go back too!"
Wubei, on the way back to the inn!
Chen Luo hummed a little tune and hurried back. After learning about the existence of the Chalcedony Pill, Chen Luo knew that his cultivation speed would be greatly accelerated in the future.
He ran all the way upstairs and went straight to the lobby, "Blind Grandpa, I'm back!"
There was no response from the room, "Where are the people?" The blind grandfather, Old Chentou, Uncle Feng, Xiao Yu'er, Xiao Ling'er, and Xiao Aunt were all missing.
Vaguely, Chen Luo felt a figure flash past in his guest room.
"So you are in the room!"
Chen Luo pushed open the door.
"Bang——" At the same time, the window was knocked open and a figure turned over.
"Who?!" Chen Luo rushed to the window, it was a thief.
Looking down from the window, he has disappeared.
Chen Luo went back and checked his package. It was obvious that it had been tampered with.
But they were all my belongings and nothing of value, so I didn't lose them much.
Ever since I got this hidden jade storage ring, Chen Luo has kept all his treasures in the ring.
But looking at this movement, it doesn't look like ordinary thieves! Are they looking for something?
Chen Luo tidied up, found paper and pen, and copied several copies of the list of Chalcedony Pill and Tianxiang Dicao. Tomorrow, he asked Feng Buer to go to the drugstore to inquire and see if he could purchase some.
By the way, I also asked Tian Wuji and others to help me find it.
"We are back." Xiao Yu'er and Xiao Ling'er's voices came from far away.
"Brother Chen Luo, we brought you delicious food!" Xiao Linger smiled and handed over a bunch of candied haws.
"Are you hungry?" The little aunt also brought a pack of snacks. The three of them had a lot of fun today.
"Haha, old Feng I'm back!" With a bang, Feng Buer broke in through the door, grabbed the teapot, and drank a few sips.
"What a big deal! I didn't expect that someone wanted to buy a horse today, and they sold 800 horses at once. The price is high, so I made another profit!"
Feng Buer was beaming with excitement. He felt that his fortune this month was so good that he could make money with his eyes closed. The lottery made money, and the main business of the ranch could actually make money.
I feel so happy and refreshed.
"You just got into money's eyes!" The little aunt gave me a look of disdain.
"Squeak~" The door was pushed open again. Old Chentou supported the old blind man and came back.
"Blind Grandpa Chen, give me something to eat!"
Xiao Yuer ran up and helped the blind grandfather back to his seat.
Feng Buer saw something unusual, looked at the old blind man with a sad and gloomy look, and asked inappropriately, "Uncle Blind Man, what's wrong with you?"
