Jiangshan stared blankly at the dilapidated yard in front of him and swallowed involuntarily.
"Are you sure the old man lives here?"
"Why do I feel like this is where that orphaned elderly man who needs care and comfort lives?"
Jiangshan murmured.
The pinnacle of the celestial immortals, they are the top existences in the world of earthly immortals. Even if such a giant does not covet anything else, he must have some needs, right?
Zhao Yun nodded seriously.
"It is indeed here. The old man is like this, unconventional. But it looks like he should not be here, otherwise he should be squatting at the door at this time."
Zhao Yun said with a serious expression.
Squatting?
Jiangshan was stunned. The following picture emerged in his mind: an old man in tattered clothes, smoking a pipe, squatting on a big rock at the door, and waving his hand to everyone he saw.
What the hell... why did he jump off the stage again?
Jiangshan patted his cheeks, then walked into the yard with Zhao Yun. Looking at the dense weeds, Jiangshan really couldn't help it.
"No, don't do it. If you want to invite the old man out of retirement, you have to get used to everything about him. Otherwise, he will think you don't respect him."
Zhao Yun stopped Jiangshan who was about to remove the weeds and spoke seriously.
…
Jiangshan smacked his lips. He felt that this old man was really a bit eccentric. Otherwise, how could he feel comfortable looking at the weeds all over the yard?
The two of them were waiting here, and a question kept popping up in Jiangshan's mind, which was, what was the old man's view of love?
However, after thinking about it for two hours, Jiangshan still couldn't figure it out. He felt that everyone has their own view of love in their hearts, and no one else can guess it.
After two hours, Jiangshan and Zhao Yun were getting a little impatient.
"The old man likes to travel around, sometimes he's gone for ten days or half a month. Why don't we go back first and not delay your business?"
Zhao Yun said somewhat embarrassedly that he had brought Jiangshan here, but the old man had disappeared somewhere unknown. This was really embarrassing.
Jiangshan smacked his lips and then shook his head.
"Wait. Since you want to invite the old man to come out of retirement, then wait. At least you are sincere. Otherwise, I really don't know what to use to impress the old man."
Jiangshan said this very seriously, and Zhao Yun was stunned when he heard this.
"That's right, what this little guy said is really good. Zilong, you have learned bad habits now. You even think that waiting for the master is a waste of time, right?"
At this moment, a hearty laugh rang out.
I saw a spirited old man walking slowly towards me from a distance, with his hands behind his back, a smile on his face, and his long pale hair gathered together with a wooden stick.
"Zilong greets Master!"
Seeing this, Zhao Yun hurried to the old man and saluted respectfully.
To be honest, Jiangshan had never seen Jiangzhou Shenhua being so respectful to others, not even to the Qiuhu Empress or Bu Nanfei.
"Junior Jiangshan pays homage to Master Tong Yuan."
Jiangshan naturally knew who this old man was, so he walked over immediately, clasped his fists towards the old man, and called out respectfully with a smile on his face.
"Well, you are Jiangshan, not bad, not bad. You have such a high level of cultivation at such a young age, and you have even become the leader of a certain sect. Your future is limitless."
"Let's go and sit inside."
As he spoke, the old man waved to the two of them, walked through the weeds to the dilapidated tile house, gently opened the door, and dust flew in their faces.
The old man didn't care and walked in directly. The room was so simple. Apart from a table and four stools, there was only a bed that looked like it would collapse at any time.
"Sit, sit, sit."
"I don't have any tea here. If you have any, please bring it out. I'm really craving it."
The old man said with a slight smile. When Jiangshan heard this, he immediately took out a few bottles of Moutai and some exquisite side dishes from the Qiankun Ring.
He had prepared this beforehand. He had thought about asking for it when he came to visit the old man, so he came prepared.
"Hey, this is what you'd find in a secular bar. This stuff is really expensive now. Only the strong men in the Five Hua States are qualified to drink it."
"Unlike me, an old man, I can't even buy it. The key is that I don't have money."
After seeing the two bottles of wine, the old man said with a smile on his face.
He immediately picked up a bottle and opened it, then gulped down a mouthful and wiped the corner of his mouth with his sleeve without any expression.
"It's great! Wine is meant to be intoxicating. The wines from the Earthly Immortal Realm have almost become tonic wines. Why would they need to be filled with spiritual energy and aura?"
"It's really weird."
As he spoke, the old man took another sip.
After taking a sip, the old man put the wine in his hand on the table and nodded at Jiangshan.
"Tell me, how are you going to impress me?"
"Let me make it clear first. I have no interest in leaving the mountain. I have already seen through everything at this time, except for the bombardment of Cheng Mengxin."
"If you can't beat me, then you and Zilong can stay here with me, an old man, for a meal and a drink, and then leave obediently."
After the old man finished speaking, he looked at Jiangshan.
Jiangshan took a deep breath, then suddenly smiled and shook his head.
"No, I don't plan to ask the old man to come out."
After hearing this, Zhao Yun on the side was stunned for a moment. Even the old man widened his eyes and looked at Jiangshan with some confusion.
What does this mean?
Weren't you going to invite him out of retirement? Why did you stop inviting him in the blink of an eye?
"Boy, you have to think it over carefully. As a man, once you say something, it's like spilled water. There's no chance to take it back."
The old man said quickly, and Jiangshan continued to nod.
"I've thought it through."
"Old man, you have seen too much of this world. You naturally treat some of my resources as dirt. I am really not sure about them."
"If that's the case, then why not save face and have a good meal with the old man and listen to his teachings? Isn't that better?"
Jiangshan said with a smile on his face.
…
The old man and Zhao Yun really had no idea what Jiangshan was up to, and they were so confused.
"Okay, in that case, let's eat."
But the next moment, the old man nodded.
Since he is not invited to come out of retirement, it just suits his taste.
"By the way, old man, where did you go for a stroll? Please tell me and Zilong about it."
Immediately, Jiangshan said with a smile on his face.
The old man waited for Jiangshan to finish speaking, then wiped his mouth and looked very energetic.
"Why!"
"Stop talking. You don't know that Widow Wang from the east end of the city is so naughty that she actually looks down on me. Isn't that infuriating?"
The old man said with great sorrow.
Jiangshan and Zhao Yun opened their eyes wide, their faces filled with stunned expressions.
