"The world is so big, and we haven't even explored it all yet."
The old man narrowed his eyes and smiled.
"But after traveling for a long time, I will inevitably feel a little tired."
"After all, the old man's age is here."
"I can't bear the long journey."
"It's time to rest."
"After you have some rest, we will set off again."
...
"Haha, I've talked so long again."
The old man shook his head helplessly.
"I'm sorry."
"It's rare that I can tell people about Hu Zi, so I'm probably a little excited."
...
"Xiao Xiao, that's all I want to say."
"Thank you for listening."
After talking to each other, the old man felt as if his body and mind were completely relaxed.
"It really took up a lot of your time."
The old man looked at his wrist.
More than two hours have passed.
Did he talk for that long?
The old man was a little surprised.
A wry smile couldn't help but appear on his face.
You are really excited, right?
I didn't know that so much time had passed.
...
Xiao Xiao smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, I have plenty of time."
"It's summer vacation now."
"summer vacation?"
After a moment of confusion, the old man's face showed a look of surprise, "Yes, it's the time when students are on summer vacation."
"Summer vacation..."
The old man sighed, "Every summer vacation after my senior year in high school, Huzi and I traveled to different places."
"No, maybe it's more appropriate to take risks."
The old man smiled and narrowed his eyes, "Of course, winter vacation too."
"After graduating from school, I will work and take risks at the same time."
"Time flies so fast."
"It seems like in the blink of an eye, most of my life has passed."
"I've become a bad old man too."
...
"but……"
The old man remembered what his grandfather said.
He is a lucky child.
He found that the old man's words were indeed accurate.
Because he is really a very lucky man.
The worries that I had had have not come true.
Hu Zi has always been by his side.
He never saw the tiger cub.
A peaceful smile appeared on the old man's face.
…
"Oops~"
The old man raised his tea cup and took a sip before letting out a soft cry.
Xiao Xiao quickly reacted, "Is the tea cold?"
After all, it's been there for so long.
The air conditioner is on again in the teahouse.
"yes."
The old man smiled bitterly, "My heart feels cold."
The bitterness of the tea leaves is also more obvious.
If it wasn't so ugly, he would have wanted to spit out the tea he just drank.
"Wait a moment."
"I'll change a pot of tea for you."
Xiao Xiao stood up and picked up the teapot.
"sorry to bother you."
The old man smiled and said, "Bring me some refreshments by the way."
"Anything is fine."
"Huzi likes your tea snacks very much."
"OK."
Xiao Xiao nodded.
He found that the monsters in his family liked to eat snacks.
but……
Or maybe they just simply like desserts?
…
After being informed by Xiao Xiao, I saw Mr. Zhao coming over later -
The old man who was following Zuo Wu was named Zhao.
Xiao's mother would arrange a special place for him.
A remote location with a lot of space.
After doing this, no one in the teahouse would fall down for no reason anymore.
The Xiao family all breathed a sigh of relief.
…
"Xiaoxiao."
Xiao's mother walked into the yard and was a little surprised not to see her son under the white plum tree.
"mom."
Xiao's mother looked over in search of the sound.
Xiao Xiao stood under the sycamore tree and smiled at her.
Mother Xiao's eyebrows were slightly curved, "Xiaoxiao, Mr. Zhao is here."
"He's looking for you."
"OK."
Xiao Xiao stepped forward and followed Xiao's mother towards the teahouse.
…
"Xiao Xiao."
When Mr. Zhao saw Xiao Xiao approaching, his eyes lit up and a smile appeared on his face.
"Mr. Zhao."
Xiao Xiao sat down opposite the old man.
Without waiting for Xiao Xiao to ask, the old man had already stated the purpose of calling Xiao Xiao over, "I came to say goodbye to you."
"Are you leaving?"
After being stunned for a second, Xiao Xiao smiled knowingly.
"yes."
The old man nodded, his eyebrows relaxed, "I have spent most of my life on the road."
"Even in old age, I can't stop."
"I originally wanted to rest for a while."
The old man shook his head, "It's only been a few days and I can't calm down anymore."
"Huzi is also getting impatient in the city."
The old man smiled and glanced at the monster lying at his feet.
There was some vague emotion between his eyebrows.
This guy hasn't changed at all since he first met him.
It's just him who has changed.
He is old.
But precisely because of this, he must cherish the remaining time even more.
He and Huzi still had many places they had not visited.
They still have many goals that have not been achieved...
His heart is still looking forward to the journey ahead.
…
"Xiao Xiao, it's rare that you heard me say so many things about sesame seeds and rotten millet."
The old man's mouth widened into a hearty smile, "I just thought that I should at least tell you that I'm leaving."
"After all, we can be considered friends forever, right?"
The old man blinked at Xiao Xiao.
"Um."
Xiao Xiao smiled and nodded.
"Ha ha."
The old man lowered his voice and laughed twice.
He did not forget that this was a quiet teahouse.
"It's good that the old man isn't too sentimental."
"Then Xiao Xiao, Hu Zi and I are leaving."
The old man stood up from his seat. This time he came to say goodbye rather than to drink tea. "Thank you and the teahouse for your hospitality during this time."
"goodbye."
"Goodbye, Grandpa Zhao."
"Tiger."
Xiao Xiao sent one person and one demon to the door of the teahouse.
The old man waved his hand towards Xiao Xiao, "Don't give it away."
“I will come to the teahouse again next time I come back.”
"Although I don't know when it is."
The elderly never have a specific time plan when traveling.
After all, who knows what "surprises" you may encounter during your journey?
And what he likes most are those "accidents".
"goodbye."
The old man turned around and reached out to pull the door open.
Xiao Xiao had already opened the door for the old man first.
The old man smiled gratefully at Xiao Xiao.
Xiao Xiao arched his eyebrows and said, "Grandpa Zhao, goodbye."
"Bon Voyage."
…
"Xiaoxiao."
Xiao's mother walked to Xiao Xiao's side and said, "Mr. Zhao, do you have something to do with you?"
"Why did you leave so quickly?"
"Grandpa Zhao came to say goodbye to me."
Xiao Xiao turned around and walked a few steps to the side.
"Goodbye?"
Xiao's mother followed and walked a few steps to the side.
"Um."
Xiao Xiao smiled, "Grandpa Zhao is going on an adventure."
"adventure?"
Xiao's mother blinked, a little confused.
She certainly knows what adventure means.
But for a man as old as Mr. Zhao... although his physical condition is very good... his face is rosy and his figure is strong... he doesn't look like a person of this age at all...
"It's just travel."
Xiao Xiao changed his explanation.
"oh oh."
Xiao's mother suddenly understood, then smiled and said, "You kid, just travel when you travel."
