Chapter Sixty-Three People are like a late sunset, like a candle in the wind

The second day.

The sun is dusk in the west, and the sun is setting.

Qingyuan and Gu Cang came out of the mountain and walked into Gu County.

When I came to Yan's house again, the fallen leaves and dust in front of the door were still not swept.

Although Yan Wang has not recovered yet, he is no longer as depressed as before. However, he is still so lazy, but he can't count on how diligent he wants to clean it.

For some reason, when Qingyuan saw this arrival, he seemed to have added some vitality to the previous two times.

Kiyohara said intimately: "This old Mr. Yan has finally recovered a little bit of anger."

The atmosphere in this courtyard is precisely because this old man Yan placed the objects that roughly redefined the Feng Shui.

Qingyuan has some insights into Feng Shui.

In the simplest way, it is the quality of the surrounding environment.

If the five elements are not balanced in the place where they are, or they are dry and hot, or they are damp, or they are windy, water does not flow, or they are dusty, or they are flying iron filings, then after a long time of residence, they will inevitably suffer from illness.

The first two times the Yan family came, because Yan Wang was neglected to pay attention to it, so it was a little dark and damp. If a person stayed there for a long time, it would be detrimental to himself.

Yan Wang's ancestor passed down from the Imperial Heavenly Prison, he can observe the celestial phenomena from above and the terrain from below, and has profound attainments in Feng Shui.

Since he recovered, he naturally knew the disadvantages, so he took advantage of the night to arrange a few things, and the Feng Shui changes overnight.

"The attainments of Feng Shui are indeed profound."

Qingyuan secretly praised, "Although these arrangements are not enough to describe any formation, and this tiled house is not a blessing, but after a day of transformation, at least living here will not harm the human body. Mr. Yan has this skill to balance the five elements of Yin and Yang. As long as he restrains his sad emotions in his later years, pays more attention to his own eating habits, and rests in this way, even if he is a mortal who has never practiced, why worry about not being able to live for a hundred years?"

In this way, I couldn't help but feel a little respect for Yan Wang.

Before Qingyuan could speak, an old voice had already heard from inside, saying, "Come in..."

Yan Wang had obviously seen them coming.

Qingyuan entered the room.

Yan Wang was already sitting on the table. He seemed to have gone out, so there was wine, food and meat on the table.

The old man was not a polite person. He didn't ask anyone to sit down, let alone invite someone to dinner. He pointed to the side and said, "It's there."

Qingyuan turned his head and saw a few pieces of paper pressing on the wooden bench next to him. The four drawings at the bottom were the ones. The one above was larger, stacked into several layers, and a wooden block was pressed above.

"The place is within Nanliang."

Yan Wang said slowly: "Luyue County and Fuzhong Mountain are not far away."

Qingyuan put the wooden blocks aside, put away the four drawings below, and then took the map and shook it open, looking at the direction of the terrain above, one place name after another.

Looking aside, the ashes of the flames are not grass ashes, but paper ashes.

He vaguely saw that the old man kept calculating, drawing, marking, and then discarding it all day and night. He had destroyed many drawings to get the accurate map in his hand.

"Mr. Yan, I am really good at this knowledge."

Qingyuan put away the map, bowed and said, "Thank you."

Yan Wang waved his hand, and showed a sarcastic look on his face, saying, "I can observe the celestial phenomena and measure the terrain, but I can't see through people and monsters... Is there any use?"

After saying that, he waved his hand and said, "You go..."

Kiyohara sighed and said, "Then I won't bother you."

He took out some silver from his arms and put it aside.

"It is no longer possible to measure any secular money to ask Mr. Yan to take action. These... are just paper money."

When Yan Wang raised his head, Qingyuan and the others had already left.

After being silent for a long time, Yan Wang lifted the wine pot and walked out the door.

Although he had the ability to observe the celestial phenomena and measure the terrain, he had no skills to protect himself. When he was young, he suffered too many losses and knew that every man was innocent and was guilty of possessing a treasure. Later, he lived in seclusion among the people in the world and no longer showed his skills.

Unexpectedly, when I am old, I will still be alone.

...

Qingyuan walked a long way, and suddenly realized something was wrong, stopped, turned around and looked back.

I saw a hunched and old figure sitting on the hillside, lonely and helpless.

The old man raised his head, lifted up the wine pot, and drank in the wind.

The setting sun is dark and the west is drooping.

People are like the setting sun, and like candles in the wind.

...

Kiyohara said silently, turned around and said, "Let's go."

Gu Cang nodded and couldn't help but turn his head to take a look.

It was originally quite disliked this old man.

But for some reason, when I saw this scene, I suddenly felt a little pitiful.

As a monster, it doesn't know what it is.

I just think that those evil wolves should die even worse.

...

Leave Gu County.

Toward Luoyue County, you must pass Yao County on the way.

Yao County is separated from Gu County. On that day, Qingyuan and Gu Cang met the evil wolf pretending to be a middle-aged woman, which was in Yao County.

When he got here, Kiyohara remembered the little girl.

"That little girl's qualifications are pretty good."

Qingyuan smiled and said, "It's the way around, just go and take a look."

Gu Cang naturally had no objection, but it went to chase the evil wolf at that time, and didn't know what happened next. Hearing the gentleman's words, he couldn't help but be confused.

The two returned to the place where they discovered the evil wolf.

When I arrived at the place, I saw a small figure in that place, which was the little girl.

She held a small bag in her arms, sat on the trees beside her, lowered her head and looked at the ground, blankly, not moving for a long time, and did not speak.

Qingyuan immediately showed a look of surprise.

At this moment, two more people came not far away.

It was a couple.

The woman was carrying a bamboo basket with food inside.

The middle-aged man seemed a little angry. He picked up a wooden branch and was about to knock it down, but he raised his hand and finally put it down.

"Dao, have a meal, it will be late later. Go home and you wake up tomorrow..."

"People say that girls are old but not staying. It depends on how old you are, and you will know that you will have to leave with them after packing up your bags."

"Fortunately, I didn't meet human traffickers, otherwise I would sell you out. What should I do if I do?"

"If this is the case, I might as well sell you and exchange a few stones of grain for your family."

The little girl was already holding a bowl and eating. She listened to her parents scolding her, and then her eyes turned red.

Tears fell down, falling into the meal.

The harder you cry, the faster you eat.

The rice mixed with tears seemed a little salty.
