Chapter 52 It's Nice to be Young

Li Buxiang obviously suffered a stroke. His body was half paralyzed and he was unable to live a normal life.

After seeing Xia Po, he tried his best to make a sound and wanted to say hello to Xia Po.

"uh-huh!"

When Xia Po came to him, he held Xia Po's hand and really wanted to say something, but he couldn't say a word.

There was a weird scream right there.

Seeing his pitiful appearance, Xia Po sighed.

"You are quite old. I came here to tell you..."

Before Xia Po finished speaking, he was interrupted by the quarrels of Li Buxiang's children over there.

Li Buxiang also looked shy, as if he was ashamed of his children.

After patting Li Buxiang on the shoulder, Xia Po walked over to a few middle-aged people.

"Why are you just unwilling to support your father? Your mother died young, and he worked so hard to raise the five of you, and you treat him like this?"

These people were attracted by Xia Po's words, and they all looked at Xia Po with unkind expressions.

"You are my father's friend, right? You should stay out of our family's affairs!"

After saying that, he continued to turn his head and started to argue.

The people watching on the side also pointed at the five brothers and sisters, saying that they were unfilial and so on.

At this time, a child came out of the crowd.

When he saw Xia Po, he looked at a book in his hand, and looked at Xia Po again with a look of joy on his face.

"It's Sword Immortal Xia Po! The best Sword Immortal Xia Po in the world!"

The book the child is holding is a property of the Xia family, and is publicly known as comics.

Naturally, it was Xia Po's idea. After the first comic came out a few months ago, it has been extremely popular.

Nowadays, many artists are vying to become cartoonists, adding a lot of fun to the world.

Xia Po is the spokesperson of the Xia family, so naturally there is a portrait of Xia Po in the comics.

As soon as this was said, the whole place fell silent.

People looked at this ordinary old man one after another, and also noticed the long sword Xia Po carried behind his back.

"It seems...it's really Xia Po."

Someone had seen the competition between Xia Po and Miyamoto and recognized Xia Po immediately.

"It's really Xia Po! I've seen his portrait."

More and more people recognize Xia Po.

At this time, Li Buxiang's five children also stopped arguing and looked at Xia Po in disbelief.

"Xia Po? How is this possible? Is what the old man said true?"

Three days ago, after the competition between Xia Po and Miyamoto, Li Buxiang went around saying that he and Xia Po were friends and had a very good relationship.

Of course no one believes this.

As a result, Li Buxiang got old and started quarreling with others. As a result, he accidentally suffered a stroke and became what he is now.

Thinking of Xia Po's ferocious performance in the martial arts competition with Miyamoto, and then thinking of their attitude towards Xia Po just now.

The five people were instantly frightened and just looked at Xia Po without saying a word.

Xia Po didn't mean to blame anyone, but asked calmly.

"It won't cost much for the five of you to take care of Li Buxiang together, right? Why are you so unwilling to fulfill your filial duty?"

Upon hearing this, the faces of the five people immediately fell.

“Mr.

But we go out to work, work at sunrise and rest at sunset every day, so we only have a few pitiful days and no time.

You said you want us to take care of the old man, aren't you going to cost us our lives?"

For a moment, Xia Po fell into silence.

I have been living in the Xia family, and through various channels, I can get as much money as I want, but I have not thought about it.

Ever since the Tianyuan Dynasty had a fight with the Nanman, it has become worse and worse. Except for the aristocratic family, life seems to be difficult for everyone...

"Okay, if you have anything to do, please go inside first. The family scandal will not be exposed to the outside world. You can just put it on the carriage like this for Li Buxiang, and you are not afraid of being laughed at by outsiders?"

So, several people entered the house one after another.

After entering the room, there was another silence. After a long time, Xia Po found a piece of paper and a pen and wrote something.

"Take this piece of paper and go to Xia's house to find Xia Sichou. Just say that I asked you to find him."

The content on the paper was probably to ask Xia Sichou to find better jobs for the five brothers and sisters.

Now that the Xia family has completely become a merchant family, with many properties in Kyoto, it must be very simple to arrange several jobs.

But it wasn't over yet, Xia Po took out his wallet again and took out a small piece of yellow gold.

Seeing the gold, the five people's eyes were opened.

You must know that the value of gold in the Tianyuan Dynasty is so high that ordinary people may not be able to see it in their lifetime, let alone use it.

Just such a small piece of gold could probably keep any one of the five of them alive for more than ten years.

But Xia Po did not give them the gold, but stuffed it into Li Buxiang's arms.

"I gave this gold to Li Buxiang. When he is about to die, he can give it to whomever he wants."

Hearing this, the five brothers and sisters nodded.

In their eyes, doesn’t what belongs to Li Buxiang belong to them?

After finishing this matter, he looked at Li Buxiang.

"I'm here to say goodbye to you. I don't have much time. I will leave the city and travel around the world. There is a high probability that I will not come back. I will drink in bars in my next life."

Li Buxiang screamed strangely, with tears streaming down his face, and kept nodding his head.

"Okay, just meet once and that's enough. Leave your funeral affairs to your children."

After Xia Po finished speaking, he stood up and left.

After he came out, he took out a piece of gold from his palm.

That's right, he didn't give the gold to Li Buxiang, not because he was stingy, but because he understood Li Buxiang.

If the gold was really placed on Li Buxiang, it would probably be defrauded by his children within a few days.

It’s unclear whether his children will take care of him until his death.

But now that Xia Po has taken away the gold, they will always have that sense of expectation if they can't find the gold.

The consequence of this is that they are involved in taking care of Li Buxiang, and each one is more filial than the other.

In this case, Li Buxiang will surely be able to live a relatively happy old age, right?

Xia Po bought a horse from a merchant, then rode on the horse's back and wandered out of the city.

Looking at the boundless sky, he decided to meet Liu Anran.

That guy is older than him, and because of the inconvenience of transportation, he has not written many letters in all these years.

I really don't know how he is doing.

Thinking of this, he immediately tore off a layer of skin from his face, and then pulled off the white hair on his head.

After so many years of disguise, his level of disguise is definitely top-notch.

Moreover, the world only knows the image of Xia Po as an old man, and few people know that he really looks like a sixteen-year-old boy.

In order to avoid unnecessary trouble and to forget the image of the elderly Xia Po, he decided to shed his disguise and use his true image along the way.

He straightened his chest, twisted his neck, and let out a long sigh of relief.

"It's great to be young!"
