In the next few days, Ye Chen had been helping the two old men repair their house.
The courtyard that the two elders owned was not big. Other than the two thatched cottages in the courtyard, there was only one mu of farmland left. The two elders relied on this one mu of farmland to support their food source.
Ye Chen planned the courtyard carefully. He used mud and hay to rebuild the inner and outer walls of the two cottages. He also used mud to cover the roofs of the two cottages.
After that, Ye Chen built two furnaces for the two elders in the cottages. In this way, the temperature in the cottages was much higher than before.
However, Ye Chen was still somewhat dissatisfied. He expanded the fences of the courtyard a little. The courtyard occupied a larger area, so naturally, there was more farmland.
After using a few days to finish all this work, Ye Chen was finally satisfied. Although he did not leave anything valuable for the two elders, at least he made them feel more at ease in their old age.
"Uncle, Granny, I've helped you repair the courtyard and the cottages. I should be leaving." Ye Chen packed his luggage in the morning. The luggage was filled with the clothes that the two elders had given him.
In the past few days, Ye Chen also learned that the two elders used to have a son. However, in the previous war, the two elders' son was taken away by the conscripts and had not returned.
They both knew that their son should have died in the war. However, they did not have the ability to go to Chang 'an to ask about their son's situation. Therefore, the two elders could only miss their son here and spend the rest of their lives here.
At this moment, Ye Chen appeared. They completely treated Ye Chen as their own son. However, all good things must come to an end. In the end, it was time for Ye Chen to leave.
The only thing they could give Ye Chen was that luggage full of clothes.
"Can you … stay for a few more days?" The old woman grabbed Ye Chen's hand with tears in her eyes. She looked at Ye Chen with some reluctance. However, Ye Chen still shook his head gently.
"Granny, I will definitely come back to visit you when I have time." Ye Chen held the two old men's hands and felt a little sad. But when he thought of the secret he had, he finally turned around and walked into the wind and snow resolutely.
The two old men stood behind Ye Chen and watched Ye Chen's back, just like how they had watched their son being taken to the battlefield.
Ye Chen walked alone in the vast expanse of white snow. Although he had an immortal body, the cold wind of the mortal world still made him feel cold.
He wrapped his coat tightly around himself and walked in the direction of Chang 'an.
This place was only a few hundred miles away from Chang 'an. Based on Ye Chen's speed, it would only take him a few days to travel. But now, with the wind and snow, his speed was slowed down a lot.
After several days of continuous walking, Ye Chen was a little tired. He found a small temple in the wilderness that was dedicated to the local god and rested for the night.
The next morning, when Ye Chen woke up, he found that the snow outside had stopped and the weather had become much clearer.
Ye Chen carried his luggage and happily walked out of the small temple. But at this moment, a voice called out to him from behind. "Little brother, take care."
"Who is it? Who's there? " Ye Chen turned around. A Daoist with an immortal aura had appeared behind him. At this moment, the Daoist smiled at Ye Chen.
"Who are you?" Ye Chen looked at the Daoist in front of him warily. Before he checked into the small temple last night, he had carefully searched the inside and outside of the small temple and had already confirmed that there was no one in the temple.
