At first glance, it looks like an ordinary landscape painting, with mountains in the distance, streams in the foreground, and dotted with flowers, plants, fish, and insects.
However, there was a young man standing by the stream, standing with his hands behind his hands, his eyes a little solemn. Looking at the distance, the young man seemed hesitant, as if he was making an important decision.
What was even more incongruous was that an old man was half-kneeling in front of the young man. The old man had his hands over his head and there were tears on his face.
Could it be that this old man has something to ask of the young man?
The paintings hanging in the study are meant to express happiness and peace of mind, but this painting is a bit depressing.
This was the first time Ning Feiyang encountered this strange painting.
It's okay to say that some people with poor abilities just doodled, but from the layout of the entire painting and the lifelike characters in the painting, it can basically be seen that the painter's level is very high.
What shocked Ning Feiyang the most was that the young man wore a jade ring on his hand, which was exactly the same as the one in his system.
He got the wrench from gangster Wang Yiming. After several inquiries, he could not find out where it came from.
I didn't expect to encounter it in this picture.
The classmates were all enjoying tea, while Ning Feiyang looked at the painting alone, feeling lost.
The old man from Fenghuang Tea House stood up, walked to Ning Feiyang, and said, "Do you like this painting?"
"Um... I don't know how to appreciate it either. I just felt a little strange when I saw this painting." Ning Feiyang said.
"Everyone who sees it says this, haha." The old man said with a smile.
Ning Feiyang calmed himself down and asked casually: "Old man, what is the origin of this painting? Can you tell me?"
"In the winter ten years ago, I traveled to Huishan alone. At that time, I was still young and strong, and I walked around at will."
"Who would have thought that I would get lost while walking. Soon at night, there was heavy snowfall. In addition, my feet slipped and I fell in the snow. Fortunately, I was saved by an expert." The old man said here,
Lost in thought.
Ning Feiyang said: "You are really lucky."
"Well, the man's name was He Hailong. He looked like a teenager and was an ascetic. He was very strong. He carried me on his back and climbed up from the cliff a hundred meters below with his bare hands, and I was saved." The old man continued.
Ning Feiyang took a breath when he heard this. Carrying the old man on his back, he climbed a hundred-meter cliff with his bare hands. There was also heavy snow, so even he might not be able to do it easily.
"After he rescued me, he gave me this painting and said a few weird words. I can't remember them clearly. It seemed like we were meeting by fate or something."
"I feel lucky for the rest of my life. I hung this painting in my study. I go hiking every year, hoping to meet He Hailong again, but I have never met him." The old man shook his head and said.
It's so mysterious.
The old man was silent for a few seconds, came to his senses, and said with a smile: "I told others about this matter, but they didn't believe it, so I stopped mentioning it later."
"I believe it." Ning Feiyang felt that the old man didn't seem to be lying.
"Haha, I didn't expect that ten years later, I would be in danger on the mountain and someone would save me. If you like this painting, I will give it to you." The old man said.
Ning Feiyang wanted to refuse, but when he saw the jade finger of the young man in the painting, he swallowed his words and changed his words: "Thank you very much."
The old man took off the painting and handed it to Ning Feiyang.
"I'll go over there first and see if the food is ready." The old man left the study.
Ning Feiyang took out the jade ring and kept it in his hand, intending to compare it with the ring in the painting.
Unexpectedly, after the jade ring finger touched the painting, a ray of light suddenly shot out.
Ning Feiyang could see clearly that the painting had changed. The young man's brows stretched and his lips moved, as if he had said something.
The old man wiped away his tears, stood up, and chatted happily.
Ning Feiyang thought he had seen it wrong. He rubbed his eyes and found that the painting was frozen and was very different from the previous one.
He was startled and quickly put the painting away. If the old man saw it, even if there was nothing wrong with his heart, he might be frightened.
The hotel is next door to Fenghuang Tea House. The old man’s granddaughter booked five tables and took them to eat, which was authentic Huizhou cuisine.
Huizhou hairy tofu, braised stinky mandarin fish, spicy crayfish, Huizhou small sesame cakes, etc.
The meal lasted for more than two hours, and the guests and hosts thoroughly enjoyed themselves.
On the way back, Yang Lifeng looked at the tea leaves and said with a smile: "The old man is quite particular. The tea leaves given to each person are probably worth two thousand yuan. He also treated us to a delicious meal, which cost at least tens of thousands."
"Zhu Ruotong, do you have Huatian's WeChat account?" Su Yi asked.
"Yes, for what?" Zhu Ruotong asked.
A faint evil smile appeared on the corner of Su Yi's mouth, and he said: "Take a photo and post it on WeChat Moments. By the way, the old man will treat us to a big dinner and indicate the price. That bastard will be so angry."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Of course Zhu Ruotong didn't do that, it was really a loss.
However, after the car drove to school, we met Huatian again. People in their class also bought tea. In comparison, the advantages and disadvantages are self-evident.
When those students saw the high-end gift boxes, they could guess the price and were very upset.
If the old man had been rescued at that time, Huatian would not have charged any medical fees, and these would have belonged to them.
Su Yi returned to the dormitory and anonymously called Huatian's counselor and briefly explained the matter. If nothing else happened, Huatian would no longer be the class monitor.
The next two days were quiet, with classes going on and off normally every day, and everyone's condition also adjusted.
The class trip was equivalent to free of charge. They also received gift boxes and ate a lot. Ning Feiyang's height in their minds increased again.
However, when Ning Feiyang suggested having a dinner party, everyone was a little reluctant, especially the boys.
"I saw you guys were so careless before and drank as much as you asked. Why are you so effeminate now?" Ning Feiyang said.
"Poverty has limited my ability to drink. I don't dare to drink anymore because I have no money." Su Yi sighed.
Yang Lifeng also frowned and said, "Talk about relationships, it really hurts money."
"That's right, just going out for a meal costs one or two hundred, watching a movie costs forty or fifty, renting a house costs another one or two hundred, and buying small gifts is simply unaffordable." Su Yi shook his head and sighed.
.
"Love makes people poor, I finally understand this truth." Yang Lifeng frowned.
"Third brother, I heard that the agency is on the right track. How about this? I'll work with you and you can find a part-time job for me, otherwise I won't be able to survive." Su Yi said.
Yang Lifeng also raised his hand, indicating that he was one of them.
Ning Feiyang knew that both of them had good family conditions, and their monthly living expenses were close to two thousand. Even so, they were still poor, let alone others. (To be continued)
