You chased me back

The light in the quaint Chinese-style wing room is dim, the incense burner is quietly burning, and the room is filled with a reassuring fragrance.

The man with a towering back like a mountain took a sip of tea gracefully, with a calm voice:

"I just heard you say it's a rare spiritual creature... Tsk... Is it really because of my evil spirit?"

The frail monk chuckled and shook his head inscrutablely: "It's just the guardian of the spirit jade. It's not easy for such a thing to change hands."

Xiang Huaiqin put down the teacup, quietly stared at the two pieces of jade placed in the silk on the table, and said to himself, "I always feel bad luck."

The monk put down the Buddhist beads, added some more tea to his cup, and said calmly: "Your words, huh, are not entirely wrong."

"How?"

"Jade Broken, is to block robbery for others. Some catastrophes, Jade Broken can stop it, and give up the treasure in your heart for half a life to be peaceful. Some catastrophes, Jade Broken can't stop it, so there is a saying of 'unlucky'."

Seeing that the person in front of him fell into deep thought, the monk picked up the beads and said with a smile, "It's all folklore after all, let's just listen to it for now."

Xiang Huaiqin curled his lips indifferently, "You said this jade is rare, but why?"

He has not been playing with antiques for a year or two. This jade is of high quality and exquisite carving. Although it is a rare and good thing, it is not very rare.It's not an antique. In terms of age, I'm afraid it won't even be 100 years old.

What really caught his attention was the shock that flashed across Shi Ming's pupils when he saw the jade for the first time, and there was a gleam in his old and dry eyes that he had never seen before.

After all, he is a Taoist outside of the world of mortals, even though this jade has a lot to do with him, when it comes to this jade, he still looks like An Ran neither happy nor sad.

"I was just a naughty Chai Boy at the foot of the mountain back then, and I was fortunate to see Master Liu's uncanny workmanship."

Looking at Huai Qin's calm face, he shook his head and smiled, "Liu's Yu, people nowadays probably haven't heard of it. That's right, his family stopped working a long time ago..."

Xiang Huaiqin seemed to have thought of something, and the hand holding the tea paused imperceptibly, "The Liu family you are talking about..."

Shi Ming lowered his eyes and stopped talking, "I'm old, and I can't remember many things..."

Xiang Huaiqin drank the half-cold tea in his cup, picked up the jade on the table, turned and left, and a gentle voice came from behind him, "Don't put the broken jade in your hands, it's better to return it to the original owner."

"Ok, I know."

……

Sitting in the car, Zhang Jian looked at the green water and green mountains outside the window and was slightly lost in thought. Xiang Huailin held his head with one hand and held the steering wheel with the other in a leisurely posture.

Before seven o'clock in the morning, without warning, Zhang Jian saw Xiang Huailin standing in front of the bed, fully dressed and carrying a suitcase, and was startled.The tiredness of staying up late last night to rush to work disappeared without a trace in an instant.

He half stood up in a panic, and instinctively grabbed Xiang Huailin's wrist, expressing his nervousness, "You...where are you going?"

Xiang Huailin didn't expect Zhang Jian to have such a big reaction. He stared blankly at the panicked person in front of him, eyes flushed red from staying up late, and said, "...Go... on vacation..."

He didn't think there was anything wrong with what he said, but Zhang Jian's expression was obviously sad.

"Oh...then...then I'll make breakfast for you, and I can leave after eating..." Saying that, he let go of Xiang Huailin's wrist, and got up listlessly and got out of bed.

"Don't do it, there's no time, just go to the airport and have something to eat."

Zhang Jian looked up at him, sat back on the bed with a look of hesitation, licked her lips, stared at Xiang Huailin's shoes and said in a muffled voice: "Who... are you going with..."

Xiang Huailin suddenly realized, and stretched out his hand to flick his forehead, dumbfounded, "I said your IQ is not on the line, right? Of course it's with you! Why, do you think I'm going to leave you and go out to play with others nervous?" Said He raised Zhang Jian's chin frivolously, and looked at him maliciously.

Zhang Jian lowered her head and sighed, and a few seconds later, she grabbed the restless hand, pulled the person into her arms, turned around and fell back on the bed, "You fucking...you scared me to death..."

"You fucking...you're about to crush me to death..."

Zhang Jian laughed silently, with a contented and tired voice, "You are too much... Hold on for a while..."

The person who was crushed below yelled dissatisfiedly at the young master, "Hey, you are heartless, I saw that you were tossing so late yesterday and wanted you to rest for a while! I packed up everything, you hurry up and don't worry about it!" grumble."

Zhang Jian was a little surprised. She stood up to take some weight off him, and stared at him incredulously, "I've made progress, can I pack my luggage by myself? I've really grown up..." As she spoke, she stretched out her hand and touched Huailin. A well-groomed head.

Xiang Huailin thumped him with a smile, "Don't act like you're praising your son... At least I've been independent in England for a year..."

"If you want to go out to play, why don't you tell me in advance, I..."

"The old man has nothing to do, just pack up the suitcase and go."

"..." Zhang Jian looked at his well-arranged outfit and didn't bother to expose him.The person who usually goes out for two hours is now telling him this...

So he let Xiang Huailin be brought to this northwest city in such a muddle-headed manner.After getting off the plane, Xiang Huailin rented a car, and drove into the mountains with ease.

"...Where are we going?" The air in the mountains is so good, Zhang Jian asked casually, lying comfortably on the edge of the car window.

"Ah...go to my grandpa's house...not far away, right in front..."

"Where are you going?!" Zhang Jian suddenly sat up straight, staring at Xiang Huailin with wide eyes.

"My grandpa's house, didn't you say you wanted to come and see my house? My dad's... there's nothing to see, I'm very close to my grandpa. It's so easy to have a holiday on National Day, otherwise I really don't have time to come here..."

What Xiang Huailin said was a matter of course, Zhang Jian could only hold his forehead and sigh, "Why didn't you tell me earlier, I didn't prepare anything..."

Xiang Huailin sneered heartlessly, "I told you earlier what you were going to prepare? Fruit basket or melatonin? The old man led soldiers and fought in wars when he was young, so he doesn't eat this kind of stuff." Seeing Zhang Jian's worried face , he freed a hand to cover the back of Zhang Jian's hand, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, he said, as long as he likes anyone I like!"

Zhang Jian smiled and clasped his palms upwards with his ten fingers, feeling touched in her heart.Unexpectedly, Xiang Huailin actually heard what he said that day, and really brought him here.

When the sun had tilted to the west, the car finally drove into a quaint ancient town.The courtyards with white walls and red tiles are lined up one by one, and even the oldest shops are preserved in the neighborhoods and alleys. All the traditional craftsmen have unique skills.This place looks like the legendary Peach Blossom Spring.

Xiang Huailin parked the car ahead of time, took Zhang Jian through these small alleys, and finally stopped in front of an ancient mansion far away from the busy city.Qingwa Zhumen was obviously once a place for rich families.

The gate seemed to be open like this all year round, and Xiang Huailin swaggered in, "Mr. Liu! Your grandson brought his grandson-in-law to see you!", yelling at the top of his voice as if Xiang Huailin had entered the village.I just heard the same yelling from inside, "It's the backyard! Hurry up and show me!", the momentum was no worse than Xiang Huailin's.

This house is really big, through the wing rooms, corridors, and finally came to the courtyard in a corner.

This open space has been turned into a field. The old man is watering the tomatoes with a wooden barrel in a straw hat. He is not at all like the owner of this house.

Xiang Huailin squatted in the field swaggeringly picked two juicy tomatoes and handed them to Zhang Jian, "Pure natural without chemical fertilizers, try it!" After speaking, he picked another tomato and ate it with his sleeve

Just as Zhang Jian reached out to take it, the grandfather suddenly straightened up from the field, wiped off his sweat, and turned around, "Where is my grandson-in-law? I..."

Suddenly seeing Zhang Jian who was holding two tomatoes on the edge of the vegetable field and staring blankly at him, neither of them could speak.

Xiang Huailin came out of the vegetable field wiping his mouth, grinning heartily, "Grandpa! Miss me!"

"…you…"

"My wife, this is it!"

"..."

"Grandma... Hello, grandpa... My name is Zhang Jian..."

The old man stood still for a while, and stopped talking.Fu Fu Straw Hat walked out of the field in silence, put the bucket aside, fetched water, washed his hands, walked to the small table set up in the shade and sat down, drinking a big mouthful of tea.

Zhang Jian didn't know what was wrong, and walked towards Huailin, pretending to be calm, "You said it before, as long as I like it, you think it's good."

The old man didn't look at him, and snorted coldly.No one can figure out what it means.

Waiting quietly for Mr. Liu to finish drinking the whole pot of tea, the old man finally put down the old enamel water tank and waved to Zhang Jian.

Zhang Jian hurried over, still holding two tomatoes in her hands.

"He...has been to your house too?" The old man's voice was old but majestic.Zhang Jian nodded quickly.

The old man nodded, still with a cold face, "How did you do it at your house?"

"I took a beating, and then we worshiped."

Xiang Huailin couldn't help covering his face, he was so upright.

The old man smiled, and turned around as if he was looking for something, "You are the only one who got beaten up? That's not fair, he has to be beaten up today too!"

While speaking, he took out a long stick from the corner of the wall, and hit Huailin head-on.

After all, he was the all-powerful old general back then, and his skills were no worse than back then!No matter how good Zhang Jian's kung fu was, it was too late to use it, so he could only rush to protect Xiang Huailin in his arms, and the wooden club hit his back with a heavy muffled sound.

This time, Xiang Huailin was really anxious, "Grandpa, what are you doing? This is it! He has injuries on his ribs!" But Old Man Liu didn't listen to what he said at all, avoided Zhang Jian, and swung the stick at him again.

Looking at the posture, Zhang Jian became anxious. She didn't care about the etiquette at all. She turned around and waved goodbye, throwing the old man's stick on the ground.

A flash of surprise flashed in the old man's eyes, and he stood still.

Zhang Jian walked over, picked up the wooden stick and handed it to him, "Grandpa, I will take the beating for him, including the part I offended you just now."

Mr. Liu looked at his calm and firm eyes, and was in a trance for a moment.But it quickly returned to normal.

He sneered and was about to say something, but when he noticed the half broken jade on Zhang Jian's neck, he was speechless for a moment.

"Your jade is unique." After a while, the old man spoke slowly.

Zhang Jian didn't understand why the murderous person just now suddenly cared about this, but he could only answer along, "Oh, it wasn't like this at first, but then it was disconnected from the middle for some reason..."

"What about the other half?"

"Oh... on Huailin...."

"how did it get here."

"First take the plane, and then... oh, oh you ask Yu...my grandpa's..."

"You just said... your surname is Zhang, Li Zao Zhang?"

"Ah? Ah, yes..." Zhang Jian couldn't keep up with the old man's thinking at all, so he stammered in his answer.

The old man didn't seem to care, he nodded expressionlessly, turned around slowly, and walked towards the wing, his tall and straight back looked lonely and stubborn in the setting sun.

"Your grandfather, how are you?" When walking to the door, the old man stopped and turned his back to him and asked.

"Ah...he passed away...a long time ago."

The old man laughed, shook his head to himself, and then walked forward, "I knew it, that bastard..."

Zhang Jian didn't hear what the old man was muttering, and stood there in a daze.Xiang Huailin came over and patted him on the shoulder, "What's wrong with the old man? What did you tell him?"

Zhang Jian didn't understand either. She frowned and thought about it, and couldn't help asking, "How did your grandfather know my surname is Zhang?"

"You said it yourself just now. Your name is Zhang Jian. You must have been scared out of your wits." Xiang Huailin looked at him amusedly.

"No, that's not what I meant. What I mean is... how did he know that my chapter was established early? Shouldn't ordinary people think of Gong Changzhang?"

"...Your question is very reasonable..."

The author has something to say:

I finally got to the part I wanted to write the most.Get up at 05:30 every day and go to bed at 01:30... The basketball team was late for training several times.

"You Chase Lao Tzu Back" can basically be finished. I don't want to write too many stories too clearly, so I leave it to you to experience slowly.Extra story... there should be another one.

After I finish writing this, I'm going to start a new article. "Different Ways", with a campus theme, is probably also tortured first and then attacked.If you're tired of watching this meme...

Forget it, whether you get tired of reading it or not, I will write it anyway, please continue to love me!
