Chapter 1777 Set off again
“The world is so big, and we haven’t traveled all the way around it yet.”

The old man narrowed his eyes and smiled.

"But after traveling for so long, I'm bound to be a little tired."

"After all, the old man is old enough."

"It can't stand the long journey."

"Now is the time to rest."

"After we have rested, we will set out again."

"Haha, I've talked so much again."

The old man shook his head helplessly.

"I'm sorry."

"It's a rare opportunity to tell people about Hu Zi. I'm probably a little excited."

"Xiao Xiao, that's all I have to say."

"Thank you for listening."

After talking for a while, the old man felt a sense of complete relaxation of body and mind.

"I really took up a lot of your time."

The old man looked at his wrist.

More than two hours have passed.

Did he talk for that long?

The old man was a little surprised.

A bitter smile appeared on his face.

I am really excited, right?
I don’t know how much time has passed.

Xiao Xiao smiled and said, "It's okay, I have plenty of time."

“It’s summer vacation now.”

"summer vacation?"

After a moment of confusion, the old man's face showed a look of sudden realization, "Yes, it's the summer vacation time for students now."

"Summer vacation..."

The old man sighed, "Every summer vacation after my senior year of high school, Huzi and I traveled to different places."

"No, or maybe adventure is more appropriate."

The old man narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Of course, during the winter vacation too."

“After graduating from school, I took risks while working.”

"Time flies so fast."

“It seems like in the blink of an eye, most of my life has passed.”

"I've become an old man, too."

"but……"

The old man remembered something his grandfather said.

He is a lucky kid.

He found that the old man's words were indeed accurate.

Because he is really a very lucky man.

The previous concerns did not come true.

Hu Zi has always been by his side.

He had never lost sight of Hu Zi.

A peaceful smile appeared on the old man's face.

……

"Oops~"

The old man raised his teacup, took a sip and cried out softly.

Xiao Xiao reacted quickly, "The tea is cold?"

After all, it has been left for so long.

The air conditioner was on in the teahouse.

"Yes."

The old man smiled bitterly, "It's chilling to the bone."

The bitterness of the tea becomes more obvious.

If it wasn't so ugly, he would have wanted to spit out the tea he had just drunk.

"Wait a moment."

"I'll change the tea for you."

Xiao Xiao stood up and picked up the teapot.

"sorry to bother you."

The old man smiled and said, "Please bring some refreshments while you're at it."

"Anything is fine."

"Hu Zi really likes your tea and snacks."

"Ok."

Xiao Xiao nodded.

He discovered that the snack monsters in his house really liked eating them.

but……

Or maybe they just simply like desserts?
……

After hearing what Xiao Xiao told me, I saw Mr. Zhao coming over later.
The old man who followed Zou Wu was named Zhao.

Xiao's mother would always arrange a special place for him.

A remote yet spacious location.

After doing this, no one fell down for no apparent reason in the teahouse anymore.

The Xiao family breathed a sigh of relief.

……

"Xiaoxiao."

Xiao's mother walked into the yard and was a little surprised not to see her son under the white plum tree.

"mom."

Xiao's mother looked in the direction of the voice.

Xiao Xiao stood under the paulownia tree and smiled at her.

Mother Xiao's eyebrows curved slightly, "Xiaoxiao, Elder Zhao is here."

"He's looking for you."

"Okay." Xiao Xiao took a step forward and followed his mother to the teahouse.

……

"Xiao Xiao."

When Mr. Zhao saw Xiao Xiao approaching, his eyes lit up and a smile appeared on his face.

"Mr. Zhao."

Xiao Xiao sat down opposite the old man.

Before Xiao Xiao could ask, the old man had already told him the reason why he had called Xiao Xiao over, "I came to say goodbye to you."

"Are you leaving?"

After a second of stunned silence, Xiao Xiao smiled knowingly.

"Yes."

The old man nodded, his brows relaxed, "I have spent most of my life on the road."

“Even in old age, I can’t stop.”

"I wanted to rest for a while."

The old man shook his head. "It's only been a few days and you can't calm down."

"Hu Zi is also tired of staying in the city."

The old man smiled and glanced at the monster lying at his feet.

There was some subtle emotion between his eyebrows.

This guy hadn't changed at all since he first met him.

He's the only one who's changed.

He is old.

But precisely because of this, he should cherish the remaining time even more.

He and Hu Zi still have many places to go.

They still have many goals to achieve...

His heart was still looking forward to the journey ahead.

……

"Xiao Xiao, it's rare that you listen to me talk about so many trivial things."

The old man's mouth stretched into a hearty smile, "I just thought that I should at least tell you that I'm leaving."

"After all, we can be considered as close friends regardless of age, right?"

The old man blinked at Xiao Xiao.

"Ah."

Xiao Xiao smiled and nodded.

"Haha."

The old man laughed twice in a low voice.

He did not forget that this was a quiet teahouse.

"It's good that the old man didn't take it for granted."

"Then Xiao Xiao, Hu Zi and I will leave."

The old man stood up from his seat. This time he came to say goodbye instead of to drink tea. "Thank you for your hospitality in the teahouse during this time."

"Goodbye."

"Goodbye, Grandpa Zhao."

"Tiger."

Xiao Xiao escorted the man and the monster to the entrance of the teahouse.

The old man waved his hand at Xiao Xiao, "Don't send me off."

"I'll come to the teahouse again next time I come back."

"I don't know when that is, though."

There is never a specific time plan for elderly people to travel.

After all, who knows what “accidents” you might encounter during your journey?

What he likes most are those "accidents".

"Goodbye."

The old man turned around and was about to reach out to open the door.

Xiao Xiao had already opened the door for the old man.

The old man smiled gratefully at Xiao Xiao.

Xiao Xiao curved his eyebrows and said, "Grandpa Zhao, goodbye."

"Bon Voyage."

……

"Xiaoxiao."

Mother Xiao walked up to Xiao Xiao and asked, "What does Mr. Zhao want to talk to you about?"

"Why did you leave so quickly?"

"Grandpa Zhao came to say goodbye to me."

Xiao Xiao turned around and walked a few steps to the side.

"Goodbye?"

Xiao's mother followed and walked a few steps to the side.

"Ah."

Xiao Xiao smiled, "Grandpa Zhao is going to go on an adventure."

"adventure?"

Mother Xiao blinked, somewhat confused.

She certainly knew what it meant to take risks.

But for someone as old as Mr. Zhao… although he is in good health… his face is ruddy and his body is strong… he doesn’t look like someone of his age at all…

“It’s just traveling.”

Xiao Xiao changed his way of saying it.

"oh oh."

Xiao's mother suddenly realized and then smiled, "Child, just travel if you want to."

"What adventure are you talking about?"

Xiao Xiao smiled slightly.

No sound was made.
