"Hmph!" the beautiful reporter snorted. It was obvious that the cameraman's words had touched the heart of the beautiful reporter.
As soon as the beautiful reporter got angry, the interview naturally ended. Chen Xiao took a ride straight to Chang'an Street. Along the way, the familiar scenes were vivid in his mind. In October, during the golden autumn season, the red leaves of Xiangshan Mountain were red all over the sky. How much I missed my carefree childhood.
In the past, we could go to climb Xiangshan Mountain every day and follow a lot of childhood playmates. However, now most of these people have emigrated abroad, or they are all over the world.
In China, once officials get rich, they will do everything possible to immigrate their children to the United States or Australia. This has also caused Chen Xiao’s childhood companions to go abroad one by one. In addition, some people are working abroad, or going to
He is engaged in politics in other places. In the capital, it is naturally difficult to find a companion.
After getting off the train at Tiananmen, Chen Xiao entered an alley. In this alley lived some important officials of the country. Mr. Chen’s mansion was the residence of the princes during the Qing Dynasty. According to the ranking, Mr. Chen also
He can be regarded as an important minister below one person and above ten thousand people.
It is still a familiar road, and the people are also familiar people.
"Ah, the young master is back!" The guard at the door had sharp eyes and saw Chen Xiao at a glance. He immediately ignored the so-called military regulations and ran into the room. The other guard was a little more steady and he hurriedly shouted
Said: "Xiao Liu, why are you running? You are still standing guard!"
Guard Xiao Liu doesn't care about so much. The commander has been missing his grandson recently, but Secretary Yang has been unable to contact him. He even sent people to Dazhou to search, but he couldn't be found. There is no way, this matter has been dragged on like this. The old man is heartbroken.
He was difficult to treat, looked sad every day, and sometimes stood alone in the yard for an entire afternoon, which showed how depressed the old man was inside.
Now that the young master is back, the old man's heart problems can finally be solved. No wonder guard Xiao Liu is so excited.
When the old man learned that Chen Xiao was back, he threw away the book in his hand and hurriedly walked out. The old man's wrinkles became even deeper. He had just returned from the military region last month to recuperate. His face was even darker and his hair was
His silver hair has also grown a lot. However, his eyes are still full of energy. Perhaps because Chen Xiao is back, the old man is particularly excited.
Chen Xiao threw away the bag in his hand and knelt down: "Grandpa, I made you worry!"
"Haha, it's good that you're back!" The old man hurriedly stepped forward to help Chen Xiao up, and said earnestly: "It's not too late, you are finally back!"
"Uncle Yang said that you have been in poor health recently, so I rushed back to take a look!" Chen Xiao looked worried. The old man was getting older. If something happened, he might not be able to see the old man for the last time.
"It'll be good to come back, it'll be good to come back!" The old man's mood seemed to be much brighter all of a sudden. He looked at Chen Xiao with a smile and said: "Come on, come in and have a drink with me!"
"Okay!" Chen Xiao nodded hurriedly.
The grandfather and grandson put their arms around each other, and guard Liu looked at the commander who was so happy. He couldn't help wiping his tears. In the capital, the guards are all connected with each other. Being a guard is just like before.
Like everyone nowadays, it is obvious in the circle of guards whose master is good and whose master is vicious. Guard Xiao Liu is proud to be on guard in the Chen Mansion. At least Commander Chen regards himself as a human being, especially
Young Master, during the last Chinese New Year, he stood guard for me on New Year's Eve. This sentiment alone was enough to make people unforgettable.
Not only guard Xiao Liu, but also other guards had already regarded the Chen Mansion as their own home, and Mr. Chen as their grandfather. The guard on the side came over and asked angrily: "You kid, are you crying?"
What? Hurry up and stand guard!"
"I...I just saw that Commander Chen and Young Master Chen finally met!" Guard Xiao Liu sniffed and said, "Commander Chen is old. If anything happens, if the Young Master doesn't even meet,
As above, isn’t that sad?”
"Nonsense, Commander Chen will definitely live to be a hundred years old!" The guard glared at him and said, "You bastard, hurry up and stand guard, or I will punish you!"
Guard Xiao Liu turned around and ran back to his post, continuing to stand guard.
Chen Xiao and the old man have not seen each other for more than half a year. Since the last time he sneaked away when he returned to Beijing for the New Year, it has been ten months since he came back this time. Chen Xiao lamented the loss of time. Time flew by in a blink of an eye.
He disappeared without a trace. In less than a year, Chen Xiao felt like he was in another world. Looking back, he seemed to have become a person in another world.
If it were before, how could I believe that there are so-called monks in this world? Now that I think about it, monks are really everywhere. Shaolin, Wudang, Kunlun... even the corpse chasers in western Hunan and the Taoist priests in Maoshan, these are all
Hidden monks. More than a hundred years ago, they were still active in this world. However, as the times progressed and the world changed, they gradually became hidden in some corners of the world.
I really wonder if people in this world will still have rumors about these sects in more than a hundred years. Chen Xiao smiled bitterly and realized whether he was a little too worried. At this time, the guard had already put on the table that the old man liked to eat
some dishes, and then took a bottle of the best Maotai from the cellar.
"Hey, didn't you say the wine was gone last time?" The old man was stunned.
"Hey, last time I was afraid that you would drink it all in one go, so I secretly hid a bottle!" The guard smiled awkwardly: "Today, the young master is back, so I took it out for you and your grandson.
Let the two of you have a good drink!"
"Good boy, you know how to behave!" The old man looked at the bottle of wine and immediately forgot about causing trouble for this boy.
The grandfather and grandson started drinking immediately. The old man's health has been getting worse every year in recent years, so his drinking capacity has gradually decreased. Chen Xiao had a few drinks with the old man. Seeing that the old man's health was getting worse, Chen Xiao
He suddenly felt distressed. He suddenly thought that among the rune secrets the old man gave him, there was a charm that could slow down the aging of the internal organs. He suddenly raised his eyebrows and said: "Grandpa, I have been studying abroad during this period, and I am in a Taoist temple.
I asked for a longevity talisman for you. The Taoist priest told me to burn the talisman into ashes and then turn it into water for you to drink, which can prolong your life and slow down aging."
Saying that, Chen Xiao hurriedly took out the yellow rune.
"Is there such a thing?" The old man obviously didn't believe it. He waved his hand and said: "Xiao'er, you are already a grown man, how can you still believe in these things?"
"Hehe, of course I believe it!" Chen Xiao said with a smile: "As long as it is good for grandpa, I believe it!"
Chen Xiao burned the rune to ashes with fire, then mixed it into the old man's wine, and said: "Drink it quickly, just treat it like I am begging you. I almost turned over several books to beg for this rune."
It took me several days of walking on the mountain road to ask for it. The Taoist priest saw that I came to ask for it sincerely, so he gave it to me. Otherwise, most people would not give it to me!"
"Okay!" The old man also thought about Chen Xiao's sincerity. Isn't it just a little bit of paper ash? When the battle of Ganling was fought in the historical era, what didn't you eat? A little ash is nothing. The old man raised his head and filled the
After drinking the glass of wine, Chen Xiao felt relieved except for some astringency in the mouth. Seeing the old man drink the glass of wine, Chen Xiao felt relieved. He chuckled and said, "Grandpa, do you feel anything?"
Feeling a chill in your throat?"
"A little bit, this wine is really good!" the old man said with a smile.
A black line suddenly appeared on Chen Xiao's forehead. The emotional old man regarded the effect of this rune as a reaction to the wine. Well, Chen Xiao could only remain silent and choose to continue drinking. As long as the old man's health is better, Chen Xiao
Xiao will feel better inside.
Cups and cups were exchanged, and soon the old man fell down. He slept on the table and snored.
Chen Xiao has been struggling with whether he should tell the old man the news of his father's death. After all, he is his son. Dust returns to dust, dust returns to dust, and fallen leaves return to their roots. It has been too many years, and maybe the old man has almost forgotten this son. Chen Xiao sighed.
He breathed a sigh of relief and asked the guards to help the old man to rest, while he walked around the yard. In the past year, too many things have happened. Yan'er left, her father died, she became a Taoist disciple, and then
Discovered that Yan'er has become a disciple of the Demon Sect...
A series of things made Chen Xiao feel a little emotional. Is the world too big, or is he too small?
Walk out of the yard and follow the bluestone road to Chang'an Street. In Tiananmen Square, a large number of tourists still create a lot of garbage. Many sanitation workers are cleaning the square all the time, and there are also volunteers to persuade tourists.
Chen Xiao put his hands in his trouser pockets. It was October in Beijing. The cold air from the north had hit the capital two days ago. The air was dry and there were sparks all over his body. Chen Xiao walked through Chang'an Street and walked to Tiananmen Square. On the square
, the huge garland left during the National Day is still there, and the words "present a gift to the motherland" are so clear and dazzling. Looking at this huge garland, Chen Xiao couldn't help but be excited.
"Brother, buy a flower!" A thinly dressed little girl was carrying a small basket with some scattered roses in it. The cold wind blew, and the little girl shivered. Chen Xiao said with a smile: "You
Seeing as I don’t have a girlfriend, who do you want me to buy for?”
"This..." The little girl was stunned, then she pursed her lips and said, "Then you can take it back to your girlfriend!"
"My girlfriend is not in the capital." Chen Xiao said with a smile.
"Then you can keep it for her next time!" The little girl continued to be reluctant. Chen Xiao was helpless. When he was about to spend money to buy flowers, a voice came: "Buy them and give them to me!"
