The Qin family mansion does not cover much area, but except for the four buildings inside, most of the area is occupied by gardens full of plants along the way from the gate.
The green vegetable garden is full of grass, with cattle and sheep, and a clear stream that is dug by hand.
These landscapes make the Qin family mansion look like a big family, but a park.
Under the guidance of a servant, Fang Yu walked forward without any rush.
Although I haven't come for many years, the Qin family's mansion has not changed much.
Fang Yu glanced at the vegetable garden grass on both sides, and Qin Wudao looked like when he was young.
Qin Wudao was abandoned by his family and was only ten years old.
He stood on the street begging, and his stubborn but had to accept reality still remembers it vividly.
Only, Fang Yu took Qin Wudao away and took him to live with him for nearly ten years.
In Fang Yu's heart, Qin Wudao has very similar personalities to him.
But unfortunately, Qin Wudao has no spiritual roots... which is what the saying goes, does not have the talent for cultivation.
People without spiritual roots may not be unable to practice, but the difficulty of cultivation is definitely more than a hundred times more difficult than others, and hard work may not necessarily lead to gains.
Therefore, Qin Wudao himself had no intention of embarking on the road of cultivation.
During those ten years, Fang Yu taught Qin Wudao more about being a human being and his wisdom in dealing with things.
Ten years passed quickly.
When he was twenty years old, Fang Yu sent Qin Wudao back to the capital and asked him to do what he wanted to do.
Later, Qin Wudao returned to the Qin family, punished those who made him an abandoned son back then, and successfully took power, reversing the trend of the Qin family's decline and rising again.
Today, the Qin family has firmly stood at the top in the secular world of Beidu.
This is also the ultimate Qin Wudao, as a mortal who cannot practice, can achieve.
"Mr. Fang, Master... is on the second floor of this house." The servant bowed and said.
Fang Yu looked up at the building in front of him. It was a small two-story house with an extremely simple appearance.
Fang Yu stepped in.
There was no one on the first floor, Fang Yu walked up the stairs and came to the second floor.
In front is a living room, where two people stand.
One is Qin Lang who just called Fang Yu, and the other is Qin Yimo who had not met for a long time.
Qin Yimo was wiping tears, but Qin Lang saw Fang Yu at first sight.
"Mr. Fang!" Qin Lang walked up quickly, his eyes red.
"Where is your grandfather?" Fang Yu asked.
"He is on the balcony... He is no longer willing to see anyone except you." Qin Lang said with moist eyes, "We can stay here because we have begged him several times before he agreed..."
"Well, I'll go see him, you guys can wait downstairs." Fang Yu said.
"...Okay." Qin Lang nodded and turned to look at Qin Yimo.
Qin Yimo's eyes were swollen, she glanced at Fang Yu, shook her head, and said in a crying voice: "I want to wait here! What if grandpa wants to see me later..."
"Go down first. If he wants to see you, I will notify you." Fang Yu said.
Qin Yimo bit her red lips, wiped the tears from her eyes, took a deep breath, nodded, and then went downstairs with Qin Lang.
Fang Yu looked at the balcony in front and walked forward.
When you come to the balcony, you can see Qin Wudao lying halfway on an easy chair, looking at the scene outside the balcony with a dull look.
His face was covered with wrinkles, thin and extremely old.
The Qin Wudao in Fang Yu's memory was still 24 years ago when Qin Yimo was one year old.
At that time, Qin Wudao was in his early sixties, and among the mortals, he was considered to be relatively old.
But at that time, there was no trace of aging on his face.
Now twenty-four years have passed, but Qin Wudao's face cannot even tell the slightest bit of anger.
This change surprised Fang Yu.
"You're finally here."
Qin Wudao turned his head slightly and looked at Fang Yu. He pulled his wrinkled face and showed a smile.
"I said that I will meet you before your life spans, and I will never break my promise." Fang Yu said.
"Luckily I can hold on until you come here." Qin Wudao's voice was extremely hoarse.
"It won't take me long to come here, it took about three seconds." Fang Yu said, raising his right hand and said, "Did you see this ring on my finger? This is called an ethereal ring. I have embedded a teleportation technique inside, which can transfer thousands of kilometers in a short time."
"Haha... I'm almost dead, you still poke me incapable of practicing this pain point." Qin Wudao smiled.
"I didn't mean it." Fang Yu also smiled and said.
Qin Wudao laughed twice and started coughing violently again.
"I remember when you called me in the first half of the year, you were full of breath. It's only half a year, why did you suddenly become like this?" Fang Yu asked.
Qin Wudao shook his head, glanced at Fang Yu, and said, "You may not understand... But for mortals, aging is a matter of a moment."
"I really didn't expect it." Fang Yu said, "I used to teach you a set of body-building methods. If you do it well, I expect you to live to be at least 95 years old. But you are only in your 80s this year, right?"
"Since five years ago, I can't do that set of body-building methods." Qin Wudao said, "The movements inside are a bit difficult for my old bones."
"That's the problem," Fang Yu said, "You should have persisted."
"Cough... it's almost done. I've lived for 87 years, it's almost done." Qin Wudao said, "Living to death, living alone for too long will only increase pain. This is what you told me."
"That's relative." Fang Yu said, "For me who has lived for thousands of years, immortality is indeed a painful thing. But if you have been in excess of 80 years and have been extended to more than a hundred years, it can only be considered longevity and blessing."
Qin Wudao smiled, said nothing, and looked at the scenery ahead.
Fang Yu also looked forward.
In this direction, you can see mountains one by one.
It was evening, the sun was slowly setting, and the clouds in the sky were red.
"Don't you really want to live a few more years?" Fang Yu asked, looking at the clouds in the sky.
"I don't think about it anymore... If the Qin family hadn't had enough outstanding people growing up, I would have gone with Qinglian forty years ago." Qin Wudao's face withered, but his eyes were still clear and bright.
At this moment, his eyes looked like reminiscence.
The beautiful figure in my memory kept waving to him.
This time, he didn't want to let the other party down and could no longer let him down.
"I have made a will... I will pass on the position of head of the family to Yimo." Qin Wudao said, "Now the Qin family is still in a turmoil. If you want, please help Yimo."
Speaking of this, Qin Wudao coughed violently.
"Don't worry, I knew you had planned your plan since you sent Qin Yimo to Jiangnan to see me." Fang Yu smiled faintly and said, "I will definitely help Qin Yimo."
"My efforts over the years have not been enough. The Qin family's enemies have not been cleared yet, and there are problems within the family... This is what I am most worried about." Qin Wudao tried hard to turn his head and look at Fang Yu.
"Since I have agreed to help Qin Yimo, I will naturally eliminate these enemies." Fang Yu said.
"These things shouldn't be bothering you anymore." After Fang Yu agreed, Qin Wudao breathed a sigh of relief and his voice became much lower. "It's a pity that my energy has been exhausted."
"Human energy is limited, so there is no need to blame himself for this." Fang Yu said.
Qin Wudao's eyes were half closed, as if he was extremely tired and was about to fall asleep.
But at this moment, he seemed to remember something again, turned his head to look at Fang Yu, and asked, "Can you really go to another place after you die?"
"Of course, as long as the fate comes, you will definitely meet Qinglian." Fang Yu replied.
"That's good." Qin Wudao turned his head, looked at the sunset gradually falling behind the hillside in the distance, and said slowly, "Thank you, Brother Fang, goodbye."
The title of Brother Fang made Fang Yu feel that Qin Wudao was back when he was young.
But the next second, Qin Wudao's vitality completely dissipated, which made Fang Yu come to his senses.
Qin Wudao closed his eyes and a faint smile appeared on his face, as if he had just fallen asleep temporarily.
"I hope you can really see Qinglian." Fang Yu patted Qin Wudao on the shoulder and turned around and left the balcony.
