Horror start, I'm numb

"Come here, come here."

The old man continued to wave.

She was very entangled, and looked at Chen An, who gave her an encouraging look.

Finally she stepped forward and stood one step away from the old man.

The old man clapped his hands and smiled even more happily: "Xiaosheng, are you back?"

"Grandpa Gaozu, isn't she..."

Yanyan was about to correct her, but Heshen raised her hand to stop her.All eyes were on Zhu Yangxin. She didn't know who the "Xiaosheng" the old man was talking about, but she could guess from the old man's constant chanting of the name that it must be his beloved junior.

The old man wanted to get up and pull Zhu Yangxin, so scared that Zhu Yangxin hurriedly stepped forward to support him, lest he accidentally fall down, and she would be guilty of a serious crime.

The old man grabbed Zhu Yangxin's hand: "Go, follow Grandpa."

"Yuanjun, Grandpa Gaozu no longer remembers, is this okay?"

Miaomiao asked worriedly.

"Don't underestimate grandpa, he is the first river god who lived for tens of thousands of years. If grandpa hadn't been in charge, the catastrophe that year..."

The God of the River glanced at Chen An, and didn't say any more, watching the backs of the old man and Zhu Yangxin disappear from sight.

The old man didn't let the river god or other children accompany him, he just took Zhu Yangxin's hand and walked towards the back of the palace with a smile.The wooden wheelchair is propelled by his spells, allowing him to move freely despite his limited legs.

"Girl doll, what's your name?"

An old voice sounded leisurely.

"Ah, grandpa, my name is Zhu Yangxin."

Zhu Yangxin looked at the benevolent old man and replied respectfully.

"Hey, you have to call me grandpa."

The old man smiled and tried to open his cloudy eyes, like an old fairy in a New Year painting.

"Too... grandpa."

Zhu Yangxin was a little confused, not knowing whether the old man was really stupid or just pretending to be stupid.

"Xiaosheng, you haven't come to see grandpa for a long time, where have you been?"

The old man seemed to be lost in memory again.

Zhu Yangxin didn't answer, the old man muttered to himself: "Go, go with grandpa, grandpa has prepared good things for you."

The old man seemed to suddenly become interested, and moved forward a little faster, pulling Zhu Yangxin all the way to a courtyard hidden in the bamboo forest behind the palace.There is a house here, and many flowers and plants are planted in front of the house.

The old man pushed the door open and led Zhu Yangxin into the main hall. He took out a crutch from the side of the wooden wheelchair, leaning on the crutch tremblingly trying to stand up.

"Grandpa, what are you going to do? I can help."

Zhu Yangxin hurriedly stepped forward to support the old man, she looked at this posture, as if any gust of wind could blow the old man down.

The old man waved his hand and smiled.

He was leaning on a cane, trembling every step, and managed to move to the desk.The old man took a few breaths, stretched out his withered hand to grab a fruit on the table, turned around and handed it to Zhu Yangxin.

"This is good, I'll eat it for you."

He looked at Zhu Yangxin expectantly, and Zhu Yangxin suddenly felt warm in his heart.Even if she was mistaken for a person named "Xiaosheng", Zhu Yangxin could still be moved by the old man's deep affection.

Under the gaze of the old man, Zhu Yangxin took a bite, the fruit was sweet and soft, indeed delicious.

"Delicious, right?"

Seeing Zhu Yangxin nodding obediently, the old man smiled even more.

He tremblingly walked towards the wheelchair again, and Zhu Yangxin immediately supported him with one hand and pulled the wheelchair over with the other, so that the old man could sit stably as soon as possible.

"Let's go, let's go to the study with grandpa."

The old man is in a good mood.

The two turned into a large room with some wooden shelves.It is said to be a study room. Most of the things placed here are not books, but all kinds of weird things.

Zhu Yangxin looked around curiously, the old man seemed to have sensed it, and pretended to threaten: "You bastard, don't try to suppress it again, come to the study to make trouble again, and see how I deal with you."

"Oh, I won't."

Zhu Yangxin hurriedly cleared his mind.

"hey-hey……"

The old man smiled as if he had succeeded in a prank.

In the end, Zhu Yangxin was taken to a low cabinet in the corner.The old man opened a small drawer in the middle of the low cabinet, and took out a delicate wooden box from inside. Inside the box was a glazed bead with red strings on both ends.The old man picked up the glass bead and looked carefully at the light. There was a blue liquid in the glass bead shaking slightly with his movements.

"Grandpa, what is this?"

Zhu Yangxin asked curiously.

The old man hooked his hands at Zhu Yangxin, signaling her to come closer, Zhu Yangxin immediately bent down to do so, and then the old man hung the glazed beads around Zhu Yangxin's neck.Zhu Yangxin found it strange, and was about to reach out to touch it, but the colored glaze beads suddenly disappeared.

"Hey, where did you go?"

She was surprised.

"This is a meeting gift from your grandfather."

The old man patted Zhu Yangxin's hand.

"But why is it gone?"

Zhu Yangxin touched his neck back and forth several times, but the glass beads and the red string were nowhere to be seen.

"Don't be afraid, it's on you."

The old man looked at Zhu Yangxin, his eyes were brighter than ever before, and said: "This is the innate water that your master has been looking for, you have to keep it away."

Zhu Yangxin was taken aback for a moment, and at that moment, she suddenly felt that the old man in front of her was really talking to her, and did not mistake her for anyone.He seemed to know many things, including Zhu Yangxin's.

"Okay, great grandfather."

Zhu Yangxin nodded.

"Hey, Xiaosheng, you haven't seen grandpa for a long time, let's go, grandpa will take you shopping."

Immediately afterwards, the old man returned to his appearance as an old urchin, dragging Zhu Yangxin around, Zhu Yangxin wondered if it was just an illusion.

The old man first showed Zhu Yangxin some of his favorite collections, all of which were strange things, which made Zhu Yangxin amazed.Then he led Zhu Yangxin around the yard, seeing Zhu Yangxin asking questions like a curious baby, the old man looked very happy, and even teased Zhu Yangxin from time to time.

The old and the young got acquainted quickly, and got along more and more like real grandparents.

Although it is in the Taichu River, it is actually the same as the outside, and there is a difference between day and night.

Zhu Yangxin was by the old man's side, and it was rare for him to temporarily forget those messy things and spend a simple and warm time.

In the evening, someone knocked on the gate of the yard, and the old man patted Zhu Yangxin's hand, pretending to be mysterious, and said: "Xiaosheng, a little calf has come to look for you."

"Ah? What little brat?"

Zhu Yangxin has not recovered yet.

"Hey, go and open the door for the little calf, and bring that little calf to grandpa."

"okay."

Zhu Yangxin opened the door, only to see Chen An standing at the door, holding a huge food box in his hand.

The two walked into the house together, Chen An asked with a smile: "How do you feel?"

Zhu Yangxin rarely showed a relaxed face: "I'm fine."

"That's good."
