His voice was very soft, but anyone who was not deaf could hear it.

The old man in front of him gave Qin Feiyang a sense of intimacy that his second grandfather and third grandfather could not compare to.

So he guessed that this old man was most likely his grandfather who had never shown up.

But the old man still didn't open his eyes.

"what happened?"

Qin Feiyang was suspicious and said again unwillingly: "Grandpa, I really miss you. Can you open your eyes and look at me?"

Another long time passed.

Just when Qin Feiyang was about to rush onto the terrace, the old man's eyelids twitched and he finally slowly opened his eyes.

They were a pair of cloudy eyes, but you could clearly see that there was a deep sense of sadness in them.

The old man just looked at Qin Feiyang without saying a word.

Qin Feiyang urged: "Answer me, are you my grandfather?"

"well!"

The old man sighed, shook his head and said, "I'm not your grandfather."

"no?"

Qin Feiyang stiffened and said, "Since you are not my grandfather, why do you give me such a strong sense of intimacy?"

"Maybe it's because of it!"

The old man reached out and grabbed a cane from the ground in front of him.

The crutch is completely red, as if it were cast from magma, with a lifelike fire phoenix hanging on it.

Qin Feiyang looked at the crutch.

The old man said: "This crutch was made by your grandfather himself."

"Shall I go up and have a look?"

Qin Feiyang asked.

"Can."

The old man nodded.

Qin Feiyang jumped up, landed on the terrace, and took the crutch from the old man's hand.

The moment he took the crutches into his hands, a stronger sense of intimacy than before suddenly surged into Qin Feiyang's heart.

"It really comes from this crutch..."

Qin Feiyang murmured.

"When your grandfather was refining this crutch, he added his own divine blood, so it makes you feel particularly kind."

The old man explained.

"So that's it."

Qin Feiyang muttered, looked down at the old man, and asked, "Then why is grandpa's crutch in your hand?"

"I'm keeping it for him."

The old man said.

"then who are you?"

Qin Feiyang was suspicious.

The old man said: "I am your grandpa's younger brother, ranked fourth, you can call me fourth grandpa."

"Grandpa Fourth?"

Qin Feiyang was stunned.

In the past, he thought that his grandfather only had one younger brother, the second grandfather. However, in the place of inheritance, a third grandfather suddenly appeared.

And now.

Another fourth grandpa actually appeared?

How many brothers does grandpa have?

Isn’t it possible that another fifth grandpa will pop up in the future?

Seemingly sensing Qin Feiyang's doubts, the old man said hoarsely: "We only have four brothers."

"oh!"

Qin Feiyang responded, lowered his head to look at the crutch, and suddenly asked: "Grandpa, where is he now?"

"Retreat."

Fourth Grandpa replied without any hesitation.

"Retreat..."

Qin Feiyang murmured.

Last night, he heard from his second grandpa that his grandpa was in retreat. He didn't believe it, so now when he saw his fourth grandpa, he suddenly asked.

Because when a person faces a sudden question, he often instinctively answers truthfully.

In other words.

He was trying to trick Grandpa Fourth.

And after hearing Fourth Grandpa's straightforward answer, he no longer had any doubts.

Qin Feiyang stretched out his hand and stroked the crutch and asked, "Grandpa Fourth, can you give me this crutch?"

"cannot."

Fourth Grandpa shook his head, very simply.

Qin Feiyang smiled helplessly, held the crutch in both hands, and handed it to his fourth grandfather.

Fourth Grandpa reached out and grabbed the crutch, looked up at Qin Feiyang, and sighed: "We can all understand your mood, but some things cannot be forced."

"My grandson understands."

Qin Feiyang nodded.

"As long as you know."

Fourth Grandpa said calmly and then asked: "When I saw you entering the medicine field just now, you looked very confused. Are you thinking about something?"

Compared to the second grandpa and the third grandpa, the fourth grandpa has a somewhat cold personality.

"You knew I entered the medicine field?"

Qin Feiyang was surprised.

"certainly."

"As long as someone enters the medicine field, I can sense it immediately."

Fourth Grandpa said.

"Then you just pretended not to see it?"

Qin Feiyang felt quite unhappy, but he didn't dare to speak directly. He nodded and said: "I was thinking about something on my mind. When I came to Lu's house this time, I thought I could unlock the answer in my heart and I thought I could see my grandpa. But in the end,

I didn't get anything, which made me confused."

"There are many helpless things in this world, so why should you be persistent?"

"Go according to your own heart."

"Do whatever you have to do."

"Thinking about things you can't understand will only increase your worries."

Fourth Grandpa said.

"It only increases worries..."

"Go according to your own heart..."

Qin Feiyang murmured, suddenly woke up, bowed and said, "Thank you, Grandpa Fourth, for the tip."

"Go for it!"

"Your life has just begun. There is still a long way to go. Whatever you want to do, just do it and don't leave any regrets for yourself."

Fourth Grandpa smiled.

This was the first time he smiled when he met Qin Feiyang.

"yes."

Qin Feiyang bowed and responded, then turned into a stream of light and flew towards the village.
