The moment he saw Blind Hong, Wu Tiejiang's pupils shrank. He immediately turned around to continue forging. His eyes were fixed on Blind Hong, and his mind was completely focused.
Zuo Changlu turned around and walked out of the blacksmith shop. He laughed heartily and said, "Old Hong, why did you come here personally?"
As soon as he walked out of the blacksmith shop, Wu Tiejiang immediately closed the door.
He really wanted to smash this blind man to death with his hammer.
Actually, he really wanted to smash this guy with the surname Zuo …
Blind Hong rolled his eyes and coughed a few times. He looked even more senile and said, "Boss Zuo, do you have the Jade of Astral Souls that I ordered last time?"
"Yes, yes. Come, come, come. "
Zuo Changlu floated Blind Hong into the Jade of Astral Souls shop and helped him to sit down. He said, "I told you before. You're already so old. Why are you running around alone? Just give me a call and I'll send it to you. Tell me, why didn't you listen to me … "
Blind Hong tried to catch his breath. He was out of breath and said, "Boss Zuo, I've been lying at home all this time. It's not because of that … I really don't want to wait for death. Only by going out for a walk can I feel that I'm still alive."
Zuo Changlu laughed and said, "You're right. Come, come, Old Hong. I happen to have the best tea here. It can help you replenish your vitality. Look at how weak your body is. "
Blind Hong said gratefully, "All these years, it's all thanks to Boss Zuo's kindness and support. If it weren't for your benevolence and generosity, helping me many times, I'm afraid my old bones would have been buried in the ground for a long time."
Zuo Changlu said unhappily, "We've been brothers for many years. Don't treat me like an outsider. Come, come, come. This is a 700-year-old piece of ginseng. It's said that it can prolong your life … "
He helped Blind Hong into his shop and started to brew the tea. After a while, the rich fragrance of ginseng filled the air.
Blind Hong sniffed and the wrinkles on his face smoothed out. He said in a deep voice, "Boss Zuo, this ginseng tea of yours is really extraordinary. It must be more than 700 years old, right?"
Zuo Changlu picked up the teapot and filled the old blind man's cup. "Old Hong, you have to take it easy. It's best if you only soak the first cup. Don't spill it and waste my good intentions."
Blind Hong grinned with his toothless mouth and said happily, "Of course, of course."
She reached out her trembling hand to touch the teacup.
He touched the teacup, but he touched the other side of the teacup instead of the handle. Blind Hong's trembling end caused the teacup to tilt naturally. With a splash, about a third of the tea spilled out.
"Ouch …"
Blind Hong hurriedly brought the remaining two-thirds of the tea to his mouth and drank it all in one gulp. Immediately, he felt his entire body relax. It was an indescribable comfort. He couldn't help but smack his lips in pity. "What a pity. I actually wasted half a cup of this top-grade tea that can replenish vitality. What a waste …"
Zuo Changlu looked at the spilled tea and sighed helplessly in his heart. "It's okay. Come, there's more in the teapot."
"Boss Zuo, your tea …"
Blind Hong could feel a gentle heat flowing through his entire body, constantly replenishing his body that had already deteriorated to the extreme. Even his broken meridians were beginning to regain their vitality. Moreover, this feeling of being filled with life continued to strengthen, benefiting him continuously.
Slowly, there was a strange feeling of returning to youth.
"Your tea …"
Blind Hong said in shock, "Boss Zuo, your tea is obviously … a peerless treasure! How can I, an old blind man, accept such great kindness? "
"Old Hong, after so many years, there aren't many brothers that I can talk to. Moreover, I've always been a loner."
Zuo Changlu sighed. "You're the only one who keeps in touch with me. We talk a lot, but your body is in such a state … Old Hong, you must take care of your body in the future. Take it as accompanying me and living for a few more days."
Two lines of tears slowly rolled down from Blind Hong's shriveled eyes. He groped and grabbed Zuo Changlu's hand. "Old Hong … Brother Zuo, it's worth it to have a brother like you in my life!"
He was trembling. It was obvious that he was really moved. "It's a pity that I, Blind Hong, have nothing to repay you with …"
He thought for a while and felt his body. He drank another cup of tea and slowly felt it. Then, he said softly, "Old Zuo, this cup of tea has really replenished a lot of my vitality …"
"How about this … When it's convenient for you, let your son and daughter come over. I'll take a look at their lives. This is the only thing I can do for you. "
Blind Hong wiped his tears and said sincerely, "Old Zuo, you're a good man. Your life has been smooth sailing. There's no disaster to speak of. With my little ability, I'm the most powerless when it comes to people like you. However, I heard your son talking the last time I came. That's your son, right? The one who knows physiognomy? "
"Yes, that's my son."
"That child's body is overflowing with the aura of a genius … However, his life is full of misfortune and calamities. Last time, I wanted to take a look at his face. However, I don't have much lifespan left. If I try my best, I'm afraid I'll die before I can take a look at his face … "
Blind Hong took a few breaths and said, "This time, you've made up so much for me. There's a lot left. I'll take a look at his face. If there's anything that can't be avoided, I'll help to think of a way to avoid it."
"I've revealed too many secrets in my life. I'm destined to have no children and be alone. However, I also know that in a person's life, the person who thinks about the most is none other than his own child. As long as the child can be well, the parents and elders can be at ease. "
Blind Hong said, "Old Zuo, please don't reject me."
Zuo Changlu's face twitched. "Old Hong, what are you saying? Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. We're already at this age. It's better for us to take care of ourselves first."
Blind Hong was displeased. "Old Zuo, are you looking down on me? You can give me such a life-prolonging treasure so easily. I'm only taking a small part of it to take a look at our child. What's the value of that? Do you still treat me as a friend?! "
Zuo Changlu's face was full of helplessness. He could only say, "Okay, okay, okay. When he comes next time, I'll let you take a look at him."
Blind Hong opened his mouth and laughed. He was full of emotions. "It's rare to have a true friend in life! It's even rarer to have a true friend who doesn't ask for anything. Old Zuo, you're worth it! "
"I, Blind Hong, have been used by others for so many years. I've been captured and taken to take a look at feng shui and aura … Hehe, those people, who would care about my lost lifespan?"
Blind Hong said with grief and indignation, "Their lives are their lives. Is my life not also a life?"
"Both of your eyes are blind, but you still won't let me go … Hehe …"
Blind Hong grabbed Zuo Changlu's hand and said sincerely, "You've replenished me with a lot of vitality. It's your kindness. However, the people who are watching me won't let go of this replenishment. It's destined to be consumed. Since it's going to be consumed anyway, why don't we use it on our child? Let's give our child more protection! "
Zuo Changlu looked up to the sky and sighed. "Old Hong, can't we reject them once?"
"Reject …"
Blind Hong laughed. "Old Zuo, the first time I rejected them, I lost my left eye. The second time I rejected them, I lost my right eye … If I reject them again, I'll only be left with this life. It's either I die immediately or I'm at death's door. How do you want me to choose? Since ancient times, the only way is to die!"
"Even though I know that I'm at death's door, I still want to live for two more years. Although this world is bitter, who would be willing to die when they're not supposed to? How can I be willing to die in peace?"
Blind Hong spent the entire afternoon in Zuo Zhanglu's shop. The two of them had a heart-to-heart talk for a long time.
Next door.
Wu Tiejiang, who knew the inside story, was sweating profusely as he continued to forge!
"What the hell is going on …"
Wu Tiejiang muttered to himself.
…
Zuo Xiaoduo and Zuo Xiaonian parted ways. He rushed towards Second High alone.
He walked out of the commercial street, crossed the main road, and entered the pedestrian street. He only needed to cross the pedestrian street and a few small alleys to reach the vicinity of Second High.
Although these small alleys couldn't be used by cars, it wasn't a problem for people to walk on them.
At this moment, there were quite a lot of people on the pedestrian street. It was bustling with activity.
Zuo Xiaoduo seemed to be walking slowly but was actually walking very quickly with the crowd for a hundred meters. He could already see the small alley between the two buildings.
However, at this moment, he suddenly sensed something.
In front of him, four people were walking towards him together.
These four people were actually wearing retro robes. Their hair was tied up in buns, just like the ancient Taoist priests in TV dramas. They were full of rustic charm.
One of them carried a long sword on his back, one held a folding fan in his hand, one held a snow-white horsetail whisk in his hand, and the last one held a long string of prayer beads in his hand.
The four of them talked and laughed along the way. Their faces were natural and unrestrained.
What's more, the four of them didn't seem out of place as they walked on the pedestrian street. Instead, they exuded a kind of immortal aura that flowed to the outside world. It made people feel that the four of them weren't ordinary people at first glance.
They should be the legendary Taoist priests!
Zuo Xiaoduo was stunned for a moment. Because at the moment he saw these four people, a few words suddenly appeared in his mind.
Qi Watchers!
They must be the so-called Qi Watchers!
According to He Yuanyue, Qin Fangyang, and Li Chenglong … all the Qi Watchers were like this.
Besides, Zuo Xiaoduo quietly felt the aura of these four people and came to a conclusion. These four people each had … very profound strength.
How could there be four Qi Watchers in Phoenix City at the same time?
What were these four Qi Gazing Warriors here for?
