Chapter 276 Who is Peach? Next
"What?" Jiang Hanye was stunned, and the old woman spoke very directly, which directly broke the layer of window paper in the depths of Jiang Hanye's memory.
The old woman stared at Jiang Hanye, and her eyes pierced into his heart like a sharp sword: "Young man, I think your heart is a little wrong."
"I don't understand what you mean." Jiang Hanye Road.
"Man, no matter how old he is, his mind is not right!" The old woman said hatefully, "Look at you, you really don't know happiness in happiness. Obviously, there is such a good girl who likes you, but you have to step on several boats..."
Jiang Hanye's face turned red. He looked at the old woman and couldn't speak.
"Forget it, it's your own business. I want to ask you, where is the old Tao Bo now?" The old woman stared at him and asked.
"Tao Bo has already..." Jiang Hanye thought of that scene and felt very uncomfortable. "He is dead."
"What?" When the old woman heard the news, her face suddenly changed. Her eyes were full of tears and her mouth was tightly closed. The few remaining teeth bit together and made a rattling sound, which showed that she was experiencing great shock and grief in her heart. Therefore, Jiang Hanye judged that her relationship with Uncle Tao was extraordinary, at least familiar. I know.
Jiang Hanye didn't say anything. He stood like this and waited for the old woman to continue to ask questions. However, after a moment of silence, the old woman suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed: "Hahaha! The old immortal thing, you are finally dead!"
After saying this, she fell to the ground with a bang and became old.
The old woman's look also made Jiang Hanye suddenly sad. The voice and smile of Uncle Tao in his early years came to his mind. The old peach tree, the jujube rocking chair under the old peach tree and the peach uncle lying on the rocking chair also quietly crossed the corners of his eyes. He ruthlessly wiped away his tears and then walked to the old woman. He bent down to help her up and said, "Old man, don't do this. Uncle Tao has gone..."
"Alas!" The old woman finally exhaled. She let Jiang Hanye lift herself up and looked up at him and said, "Son, did he say anything to you before he died?"
"Yes, he asked me to find something in the place where he used to live." Jiang Hanye Road.
"Good." The old woman's face showed relief, "He still has a conscience."
Although the old woman has never made clear about the relationship between her and Tao Bo, Jiang Hanye has realized that there must be an unusual past between them, perhaps a good friend, a brother and sister, or even a couple. Who knows? Everyone has young times and children's love. However, when people are old, maybe everything is not so important. Whether they are together or not, it is always in their hearts.
The old woman is now like the most ordinary old woman. Her body is soft, almost completely relying on the power of Jiang Hanye. Her eyes are also blank, with a feeling strange to the whole world. At the moment she saw her extension, Jiang Hanye seemed to see Kan Cangyue at the beginning: That eye God is so helpless that no one or anything in the world can care about her.
"Grandma, let me help you sit over there." Jiang Hanye said.
The old woman didn't say anything and acquiesced, so Jiang Hanye helped her to sit down on a flat stone over there. The old woman sat down, and Jiang Hanye stood next to her, not knowing whether to leave or stay.
"Can you give me that?" After a long time, the old woman said to Jiang Hanye in a pleading tone, "There must be a cherry-red wooden box in what you found, right?"
"Yes." Jiang Hanye recalled briefly and replied.
"That's my love token with him. There is a maple leaf in it. There is a portrait of me on the maple leaf. On the back is a house with six words written on it: Xiaoxuan window, dressing up." The old woman recalled, "Give it to me and let me save it."
Jiang Hanye was stunned. At the beginning, Uncle Tao's last words were to ask him to take away the things, but he didn't say how to deal with them. Now the old woman suddenly asked for it, which made him a little overwhelmed. Finally, he decided to find the box and check it. If it was really what the old woman said, he would return it back to her. .
After finding the box from the deepest part of the universe bag, Jiang Hanye opened it. As the old woman said, inside is a red maple leaf. On the front of the maple leaf is a beautiful portrait, a gentle and beautiful woman, and on the back is an exquisite house. A woman in the house is sitting in front of the window dressing up. The six words are written next to the house: Xiaoxuan window, dressing up.
"For you." Jiang Hanye suppressed his grief and handed the box to the old woman. "Now it's back to the original owner."
"Ha ha, you are a good boy and a good material. He didn't choose the right person." The old woman took the box and held it tightly like a baby. Her old and dry fingers couldn't help rubbing the surface of the box, but she didn't mean to open it. Maybe she was too familiar with the things in the box.
"Thank you very much." Jiang Hanye didn't know how to answer.
"Don't ask me..." The old woman said slowly, "I'll be with him..."
"I don't ask." Jiang Hanye nodded.
"Well, you go..." The old woman said, "No matter what you do in the future, you have to trust your own judgment. You have strong judgment, which is your greatest advantage."
Jiang Hanye was stunned, and he nodded: "Hmm."
"Have a good grasp of what you have now, Xuanyuan sword or anything else. If you practice it well, that's your ability." The old woman said again, "Learn from your specialty and be refined, you know?"
"Okay!" Jiang Hanye nodded, "Thank you very much..."
"What the girl is practicing now will help you a lot. Although she may not be able to touch your Xuanyuan sword now, it will be fine soon..." The old woman added, "You have to give her time to study well. When it's ready, you can do what you should do. As for time, can you Come to me at any time and I'll tell you if it's suitable.
"Good." Jiang Hanye nodded again. The sudden appearance of the old man was really unexpected. It gave him a great impact and made him even have time to sort out his thoughts. Now all he can do is nod and say yes.
......
Ji Yuan took his magic weapon, the wand captured in the demon world, and he also gave the wand a very special name - withered. With the withering, his skills have also begun to make great progress. Although there is still some gap between Jiang Hanye and Cen Ruoqiu, it is really faster than before.
He landed at the foot of the mountain. This is the only right way to enter Wanjian Villa. This is his hometown and the place where he learned and grew up. He did not want to desphem this place, so he picked up the steps and walked slowly.
Along the way, the cracks of those steps are full of grass, fluttering in the wind in the night wind.
"I'm back." Ji Yuan muttered, "How are you all?"
He seems to be talking to those green grass, and he seems to be talking to the dead souls living here. Since the walking plague, people in Wanjian Villa have disappeared at an alarming rate, with death news almost every day, and strange walking corpses appearing almost every day. One hundred thousand, hundreds of people with the surname of Ji, now have less than three or five hundred left, and those three or five hundred people now do not know where they are.
Every time he passed a place, Ji Yuan couldn't stop crying. He could quickly recall what had happened here, good, bad, ridiculous and angry...
Finally, he pedaled to the top of the mountain, which is the serious Wanjian Villa. However, this once prosperous place is now left with a pile of rubble and weeds across it.
"Alas!" Ji Yuan stood fixedly in the inner house where he had lived for more than 100 years and sighed, "This place needs to be rebuilt." He sketches the future in his heart. As long as people are still alive, as long as the sky is still blue and the mountains are green, everything is hopeful, isn't it?
After walking for a long time, he was finally tired, so he fell into a drowsy sleep on a door panel with his arms. He didn't know how long he had slept. He slowly opened his eyes.
"Huh, is it going to dawn so soon? But I'm still very tired!" He muttered, turned over and sat up, stretched out and yawned, ready to end the trip to his hometown. At this time, he suddenly saw a figure flashing by, which was a mysterious figure, which was particularly eye-catching in the sun. Ji Yuan's heart was shocked: "Are there any brothers staying here?" He chased him with his wand. The figure disappeared at the corner of the remnant wall of the yard, which led to the back mountain, which was once the place where the previous owner, Ji Shangxuan's father lived.
"How could anyone go there? Except for the time of sacrifice, no one will go there..." There is a lonely small yard. There are more than a dozen houses in the yard, and the phoenix trees in the yard are all towering into the clouds. When autumn comes, the ground is full of phoenix flowers, which is very beautiful. Therefore, Ji Yuan also played here when he was a child, but with age With the growth, he is no longer interested in those phoenix flowers and bird nests on trees.
Due to the changes of Ji Shangxuan over the years, the yard has also been destroyed. Except for a subordinate to clean it, almost no one will set foot here. Even during the corpse plague, those walking corpses and crows did not come to harass here, so this yard can almost be said to be the most preserved in the whole Wanjian Villa. There was no damage to a whole yard except that the door panel fell.
"Alas!" Ji Yuan saw the yard from afar and couldn't help sighing, "It's a pity that life can't go back, otherwise I will definitely not forget this childhood memory."
The dark figure disappeared at the door of the yard. It should have entered it. Ji Yuan also quietly followed. He stood at the door and looked in. There were still those phoenix trees inside, but after the plague, the green turned gray, probably due to the huge fate. Therefore, the original color has not been restored until now.
Dozens of phoenix trees filled the yard. It was difficult for Ji Yuan to see if there were any other people here at a glance. He simply sacrificed magic weapons, climbed into the air and looked down from a high place. Ji Yuan thought he could see the man, but there was nothing but trees in the yard. He couldn't help but be a little disappointed. At this moment, if there was a fellow brother or a nephew, no matter what, even a subordinate, how he wished someone would appear in front of him.
There were only trees in the yard. After he landed, he began to look for it from the wing room and went in to check it. However, all the rooms were empty, and some rooms did not even have a piece of furniture. Where is there anyone?
When walking to a room in the corner, Ji Yuan faintly heard a noise inside, which sounded as if someone was quietly moving tables, chairs and benches. Ji Yuan suddenly opened the door and thought to himself, "Hide-and-seek? Now I can catch you..."
However, after opening the door, he was stunned. This room is simply a cobweb. The beams, corners, and even door frames are full of spider webs, but that's all there is. There is not even a piece of furniture in the room.
"It's strange that there is no furniture. Where did the sound just come from?" A cloud of suspicion caught his heart, and he frowned and stepped in.
Due to the age, the floor here has loosened. Ji Yuan stepped down, and the other end of the floor under his feet turned up and made a click. Ji Yuan was afraid of damaging the things of his ancestors, so he carefully walked on the floor. The room was not big, and he could walk to the opposite wall in seven steps. Ji Yuan picked out the hateful cobwebs with his wand as he walked. However, he saw that there were no footprints on the thick dust on the ground except his own, which means that no one had come into the room.
"No one came in?" Ji Yuan frowned. He gently walked to the middle of the room and looked up. There was nothing suspicious about the roof, and everything was dusty, which made Ji Yuan even more confused.
His eyes went from the roof to the wall, from the wall to the floor, and did not let go of the corners. When he was about to leave disappointedly, he suddenly found that a brick seemed to protrude in the corner of the door, and the brick seemed to be different from the floor, so Ji Yuan quickly stepped forward and bent down to pick up the brick. Head.
"What?" Originally, he thought it was a very easy thing, but Ji Yuan didn't pick up the brick. He couldn't help shouting, so he increased his strength and still didn't pick it up.
"Strange, this brick is just an ordinary brick..." He muttered. Although the room is dim, it is daytime now, so he can still see those things clearly. Ji Yuan saw the appearance of the brick, an extremely ordinary green brick, which was mostly in the Wanjian Villa. This brick seemed to be casually placed on the ground, but it couldn't be picked up. Even in the end, Ji Yuan's face was as bright as pork liver, and he still couldn't shake it at all.
"Futah!" Finally, Ji Yuan sat on the ground breathlessly and stared at the brick hair. "It's really strange. Why can't you afford it?"
After thinking about it, his eyes lit up: "I can't pick it up, just split it!" Just do it. Ji Yuan twisted the spell, pointed his wand at the brick, and heard a click. The brick moved, but it collapsed from the ground, ejected to the roof, hit a beam, and fell back to the ground.
Boom! This is a broken beam, and a burst of smoke and dust flew, which made Ji Yuan breathless.
Puff! This is because the floor was broken, which is entirely due to the green brick.
"Good boy!" Ji Yuan dodged the smashed beam and slapped the smoke in front of his nose with his hand. He could barely breathe. He fixed his eyes and tossed it down like this. The brick was still intact, and he didn't even touch a gap. He couldn't help smacking, "Is this a brick?"
Ji Yuan was about to step forward to pick up the brick, but the corner of his eyes caught a glimpse of a hole in the original place of the brick, which was only the size of a palm and was a small pit. Just now, Ji Yuan focused his attention on the brick, so he didn't find it.
"What is this?" There was an iron box in the pit. Ji Yuan stepped forward and carefully took out the iron box.
The box was made of ordinary iron, rusty, and the lock was rusted. He shook the box and put his ears closer to listen. There was no rustling sound in the box, only a rustling sound, very light rustling sound.
"What did you install?" Ji Yuan's curiosity was aroused. He was already a very curious guy.
Ji Yuan strode over, picked up the bricks on the ground, walked out of the room with the iron box, and came to the sun. He twisted the box hard, and a dazzling light shot out of the box, so that he couldn't open his eyes. The light entered his eyes and kept poking into his eyes like a sharp knife. His eyes were suddenly bloody. He threw away the box and bricks in pain and rolled around with his eyes.
"Ah!" Ji Yuan opened his eyes, turned over and sat up, "It turned out to be a nightmare, but fortunately it was a nightmare!" He took off the mask on his face, which was full of sweat.
"Strange, why did you suddenly have such a dream?" Ji Yuan muttered, "Will it be the manifestation of the ancestors?" He looked up at the sky. The night was thick, and it was still night.
"No, I have to go and have a look!" After saying that, Ji Yuan stood up and walked all the way along the memory of the dream. It didn't take long to come to the yard in the dream. Good guy, except for the night, everything else was almost the same as the lucidity in his dream. The yard, the phoenix tree in the yard and the dilapidated gate... Ji Yuan walked in and went straight After walking to the small room in the corner and opening the door with a creak, a cloud of dust came to his face, choking him and coughing.
"Cough!" Ji Yuan slapped the dust with his hand, "It's really here. Even the spider web has hardly changed." He looked up at the room and said.
