90,000 Years of Longevity

Chapter 470: Old Man

The street was not very long.

But the girl walked slowly. Ye Bei also walked slowly.

The vendors on both sides of the street, as well as the pedestrians passing by from time to time, basically all knew the girl.

"Qingyin, is your father going to treat him again?" When a vendor saw the girl, he took another look at Ye Bei, and then asked with a smile.

"Yeah! Don't we have a tradition here? Treat a stranger with enthusiasm. I think he is more familiar with it. There is nothing wrong with entertaining him for a meal!" Pu Qingyin replied sweetly.

"Qingyin, how is your dad these days? I haven't seen him come out for several days. I still want to play a chess game with him." An old man with a chess stand saw the girl and asked with a smile.

"Ten yuan for a plate, you lose every time. I'm afraid that my father will come over and you won't be able to eat for a few days! Old gentleman, you'd better find someone else with poor skill. Don't play with my father." Pu Qingyin stuck out her tongue.

"Little lass, what's with your words? Every time, I just lost to him deliberately. If I get serious, he won't win." The old man raised his eyebrows, even though he said so, the honest smile on his face remained.

"Yes, yes, yes, you are right! I'll tell my dad when I go back and let him come out." After Pu Qingyin said this, she continued to walk forward.

"Qingyin, are you back? Yo... You're taking someone to eat at home again! Your father is such a good person." An aunt, holding a vegetable basket, said cheerfully when she saw the girl.

"Yes, my father is too kind." Pu Qingyin answered seriously.

There were too many people who knew this girl. Almost every few steps she took, someone would greet her enthusiastically.

When those people greeted Pu Qingyin, their eyes swept over Ye Bei's body. However, along the way, those people never asked who Ye Bei was and what identity he was.

The time to go was not very long, but as the time went forward and as the scenery on both sides of the street gradually decreased, fewer and fewer pedestrians and vendors on the road could be seen.

"We will arrive at my house soon, by the way... after so long, I don't seem to know your name yet! What is your name?"

There were very few pedestrians on the street. When Pu Qingyin passed by a stone lion, she suddenly remembered something, slowed down, and asked curiously.

"Ye Bei."

"Well, Ye Bei. Walk about 20 meters further, we will arrive at my house. You know, I have invited many young people to eat at home over the years. Most of them were twitchy. There were still some people with dirty ideas in their hearts, and many people even ran away in fright after seeing my dad. You are the first to be so calm as if you are going to a very familiar place instead." Pu Qingyin's voice was lowered a lot as there was also a bit of loss in that tone that was not easily noticeable.

Ye Bei did not answer. Instead, he stopped slightly and looked forward. Not far away was a house that was out of sync with the buildings on the street just now.

The house was so far away that it could attract people's attention.

The exterior walls of the house were covered with dark red paint. But the whole house was piled up with the most primitive kind of earth bricks.

It looked dazzling, but it felt a bit low-key.

At the door of the house, an old man could be seen standing.

The old man, who was wearing a black gown, had very long hair, knotted, almost hanging around his waist. His face was all white with a beard as if it were not at all trimmed.

"That house is yours, right? The old man at the door is your father, right?" Ye Bei watched for a few seconds before speaking slowly.

Pu Qingyin was stunned when he heard it, and then she replied, "Well, your eyesight is really good. My family is relatively poor, and the house has not been renovated for a long time. But Dad wanted to make the house look brighter, so not long ago, he found someone to paint all the surfaces with paint. Hehe, it looks a lot more magnificent now! But my old man has a weird temper. At this age, he still keeps long hair and a long beard. Even after saying it many times, he has no idea to change."

Having said this, Pu Qingyin looked at Ye Bei earnestly, and continued, "My father has long hair and is very ugly. He looks like an ancient person from the Qing Dynasty to the present! But as for you, your long hair seems to match your dress very well. It looks like a handsome guy who has traveled from ancient times in some TV shows!" When she talked, her cheeks were very ruddy.

"After so many years, there are still big changes here." Ye Bei didn't seem to hear the girl's voice. When looking at the figure in front, Ye Bei said in a faint voice.

Then holding vegetables in one hand and folding fan in the other, he walked lightly in the direction of the house.

Those eyes were very deep.

"Father, I brought the guests back, have you cooked?"

As for Pu Qingyin, she felt a little strange towards Ye Bei, but she didn't care much. After her eyes were placed on the old man, she raised her hands shouted loudly.

Unconsciously, Ye Bei and Pu Qingyin were already standing at the door of that house.

"Qingyin, you are back."

The old man turned around, with a kind smile on his face, but his eyes were extremely hollow without any light being refracted, and the moment he turned around, there was still a cold breath.

If it was an ordinary person, he would be really frightened shitless by him.

Those eyes were really terrible.

But Ye Bei did not react the slightest, his eyes were leisurely and his demeanor was calm.

"Well, daddy, have you cooked yet? The person I brought back this time is different from before. His dress is very special, but you can't see it!" Pu Qingyin's voice was quite cheerful.

"I have cooked! However, the dishes are a little bit scarce... boy, where are you from?"

The smile on the old man's face was thick. When he asked this, her whole person seemed to be full of kindness.

"For some people, years are really a terrifying existence." Ye Bei sighed with emotion in his heart. Then he opened his mouth, and his voice was very soft, "When I came, I already bought a handful of vegetables on the street, eat this later..."

With the voice of Ye Bei falling, the old man standing outside the house had an instant stiff expression on his face, and his body was suddenly startled.
