"No, grandma, don't be angry. I really don't dare to lie to you. Even if you don't believe me, you should at least believe Grandpa Sheng's granddaughter." Xiaohua ran to Wen Xi with her head in her arms and hid behind him.
The old lady snorted coldly, "He only looks a bit like her. There are so many people who look alike in this world. Who knows if he's a fake!"
Seeing that grandma was about to use a powerful move by making hand gestures, Xiaohua hurriedly took the zither off Wenxi's shoulder and shouted, "Grandma, even if the person is fake, this zither can't be fake!"
"Qin..."
As soon as the old lady hesitated, Xiaohua hurriedly held the piano in front of her.
After taking off the cover of the instrument, the ancient body of the instrument is clearly revealed to everyone.
When the old lady touched the word "Sheng" in the lower left corner of the guqin, her eyes were shocked, her whole body swayed, and she almost fell.
"grandmother……"
Xiaohua hurried over to support her. The old lady was already in a trance. She snatched the piano away while muttering in disbelief, "How could it be, how could it be..."
"Grandma, calm down. The dead cannot be brought back to life..."
"But that orchid is clearly still alive and well!"
The old lady stroked the word "Sheng" on the piano, and her dry fingers trembled slightly.
"This..." Xiaohua didn't know how to comfort him, so she could only say dryly, "Maybe something went wrong somewhere?"
The old lady's lips trembled slightly.
After a long pause, he said, "Yes, I'm about to leave this world, so my magical powers are naturally not as strong as before. Something must have gone wrong... Fortunately, I helped him protect the things he valued, so I haven't let him down."
Wen Xi's eyes were slightly red.
"grandmother……"
Seeing that the old man suddenly became weak and no longer as energetic as when he came out just now, Xiaohua burst into tears.
"Why are you howling? I'm not dead yet. Go and bring me that orchid pot!" The old lady held Qin tightly in her arms and ordered.
"yes."
Xiaohua wiped her eyes, hurried to the backyard, and soon came back carefully holding the orchid pot.
"Grandma, I brought the flowers."
As he spoke, he brought a flower stand and placed it in front of the old man.
The old man opened his eyes and stared at the orchid in front of him without saying a word, as if he was lost in distant memories.
Among the green branches, several flowers are quietly blooming, emitting a fresh and elegant fragrance.
This orchid is called 'Xilan' and is rare in the world.
Before Sheng Qingfeng left, he heard that she liked orchids, so in order to repay her for saving his life, he risked his life to dive into the deepest part of the holy spring to pick them for her.
After he left, she took care of the orchid as if it were his clone, watering it with holy water and performing some magic. As long as she saw the orchid thrive, she would feel at ease. However, she never expected...
She gently plucked an orchid, and the bright yellow flower was in full bloom. She pinned it on her gray hair, which made people's noses sore.
"Your name is Wenxi?"
It was not until half an incense stick had passed that the old man finally pulled himself out of his thoughts and looked at the granddaughter of his beloved.
"Yes, Grandma Luo, Wen means news, and Xi means stream."
"A nice name." The old lady nodded and continued, "Is Brother Sheng your grandfather or your maternal grandfather?"
"Grandpa, he and grandma only have one daughter, my mother."
"...Why would he be here so early..." the old lady paused, took a deep breath and asked.
"He met some bad guys." Wen Xi was silent for a moment, and told the old lady in detail everything that his grandfather had encountered after leaving the nameless island.
The old lady's eyes were red with anger when she heard this: "Have you found those people and asked them to pay for their lives?"
Wen Xi shook his head.
