Seeing a stranger approaching, the old man pulled the little girl behind him and looked at Ye Chen warily, "Who are you? We have something to discuss. Anyone who meets you will have a share of this steamed bun, but my granddaughter has to eat it first. She Still growing!”
The old man looked at the indifferent young man in front of him and said.
Ye Chen gave a wry smile, and the little girl on the side broke away from his grandfather's arms, came to Ye Chen, pulled his trouser legs, and said with tears in his eyes: "Don't bully my grandpa, you take the food, Hanhan won't eat it."
After saying that, he still couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of spit.
Ye Chen squatted down and touched Han Han's head: "You misunderstood my brother, I'm not here to steal your food!"
Hearing this, the little girl looked at Ye Chen in surprise.
In her memory, all the people who appeared came to beat her and her grandfather, without exception.
Ye Chen stood up and glanced at the old man who was still vigilant. He put his hand into his arms. When the old man saw that he was about to take out something, he subconsciously took a few steps back.
"This bag of things belongs to my friend. I have no use for it. You can take it!"
Ye Chen threw a curve, and the bag of Dao crystals and spirit stones fell steadily into the old man's hands.
He glanced tremblingly, his pupils dilated, and immediately said: "Young man, I believe you have no ill intentions, but it's just that you are not receiving reward for your merits, and my grandfather and grandson cannot take your things!"
The old man struggled internally several times before finally speaking.
He understood that the young man in front of him wanted to help him, and he also knew that this thing could give his granddaughter a better life.
But he still refused.
"Well, old man, it's my first time to come to Wuzu City. I don't even have a place to stay now, and the restaurant is too expensive. You can take me in for a few days and give me a place to stay. I'll just treat this as a night." It’s a waste!”
Ye Chen smiled.
"That's...ok." The old man finally agreed.
…
The breeze under the setting sun blew through the mountains in the suburbs, and also brushed between Ye Chen's brows.
"Brother, are you from the outside world?" Hanhan's big eyes blinked, looking at the strange but familiar Ye Chen in front of him.
"Yes, when Hanhan grows up, you can also go and see the outside world. You will have many friends and experience a lot of interesting things together... I have a friend who is about the same age as you, named Ji Lin. Maybe you can meet each other then." Ye Chen smiled.
"Then when will Hanhan grow up?" Obviously, the little girl was also moved by the blueprint drawn by Ye Chen.
"Brother is my first friend..."
Hanhan, whose eyes were too sleepy to open, vaguely felt Ye Chen covering her with a quilt. Her face was filled with happiness and she fell asleep peacefully.
It was late at night, and Ye Chen was staring at the moon alone in a daze.
How to escape from this disaster?
"Young man, you have a unique temperament... It makes me feel like I have seen reincarnation..." The old man put on a tattered clothes and sat in front of Ye Chen.
Ye Chen was startled. This seemingly ordinary old man could see his identity at a glance. It seemed that anyone in the Ten Tribulations God and Demon Tower might be extraordinary.
"It's so late and you haven't rested yet?" Ye Chen smiled. Seeing the old man sitting down, he picked up the teapot beside him, poured a bowl of water into the broken white porcelain bowl with a corner missing, and handed it to the old man. .
"I'm old, I don't sleep much..." The old man took the bowl and took a sip of water.
"Every time I close my eyes, I see this girl's future, and I don't know how long I, an old man like me, can keep her company..." the old man said worriedly.
Ye Chen didn't know how to comfort him, and was speechless for a moment.
"People must have a thought before they can move forward. Otherwise, no matter what they do, they will just stand still!"
The old man sighed softly. He was only thinking about his granddaughter.
"Sometimes, it takes a lifetime to understand that the end is the starting point, and the end is also the beginning..."
The old man said earnestly: "Hahaha, when you get older, you will inevitably feel a little emotional. You young people may find it verbose, but I still have something to give you as a repayment."
The old man said with a smile.
"You are joking, I am all ears!" Ye Chen looked directly at the old man.
The old man stood up, patted the dust on his body, and walked into the house, leaving only one sentence:
"The young man longs for the mountains and fields, please hurry up before the sun goes down!"
Ye Chen's heart trembled when he hit the mark!
“Before the sun goes down, the end is also the beginning, and the end is the starting point.”
"It is easy to stop the enemy, but it is difficult to purify the heart."
"I see, I understand where the road is!" Ye Chen stood up, bowed respectfully to the thatched house, got up and ran outside.
There are flower fields over there, that mysterious old man reciting poems that I met at the beginning, there is the end!
Ye Chen's figure ran towards the outside of the city...
Under the setting sun, the sea of flowers was no longer there, replaced by a sea of people paved with bones.
There was no fragrance of flowers, but the bard not far away stood still in sackcloth.
"I didn't expect you to come so soon. I have been here for thousands of years. Every evening, I watch the setting sun and wait for the flowers to bloom!"
"Those who come here are in a hurry and have lost their minds, and the way back is also different."
The old man in sackcloth said calmly.
"Young people have good temperament and understanding, but if you want to get out of the third floor of the Ten Tribulations God and Demon Tower, you still have to have strength!"
Ye Chen bowed and said, "I still hope that my seniors will give me some advice!"
Hearing the words, the old man in sackcloth turned to look at Ye Chen and nodded gently. Immediately, his aura kept changing, and he was like Ye Chen, still at the first level of the real world!
But even though the opponent is at the first level of Huanzhen Realm, his aura is not weaker than that of a strong man at the peak of Taizhen Realm!
"Do you think your Huanzhen Realm is very strong?"
"We are both invincible, so we can break the situation!"
The old man in sackcloth said softly.
The old man in sackcloth flashed his figure and took the lead in attacking. His almost weird figure suddenly rushed to Ye Chen's eyes and swung out a palm, trying to capture Ye Chen in one fell swoop.
Ye Chen's eyes narrowed, the wind monument was raised, and the figure immediately disappeared from the place, causing the old man in sackcloth to slap the air with his palm.
"Hey!" The old man in Mai seemed to have seen some clues.
With a palm shot in the air, he suddenly felt something bad, and his figure immediately retreated. He discovered a terrifying thing. The same level of cultivation could not lock Ye Chen's position!
"How is it possible? This kid is only at the first level of the Real Realm." The old man in Mai was surprised.
Ye Chen did not stop. Facing the genuine master in front of him, even if he suppressed his strength, Ye Chen still wanted to try whether he was invincible at the same level now!
"The Dark Monument comes out!"
Ye Chen did not dare to be careless, and an ancient stone tablet burst out of his body. On the stone tablet was engraved a huge word "Dark", and around the word "Dark", there were many small and dense characters, all of which were from the Xie Sha Martial Code. character.
This dark stele was fused with the aura of the Evil Demon Martial Arts Code. Once it was released, the darkest aura suddenly filled the sky. The atmosphere of the Evil Heaven Book emerged, and an abyss instantly evolved.
