The world will come soon.

So Li Yang left very quickly.

Wushuang City. North of the city.

This is a wasteland, with only a few wild grasses, as if all the desolation in Wushuang City has been concentrated together. Just looking at it makes people feel disappointed and too lazy to move forward.

"It's really deserted here..." The dark horse under the seat made a sound, as if agreeing with Li Yang.

Li Yang slapped his horse's butt, "Go away quickly, otherwise you will go hungry tonight."

The dark horse made a light neigh, speeding up.

After a while.

Huh?

There are still people living in the depths of this wasteland?

Li Yang looked at the hut in front of him in surprise, about ten feet away.

The thatched hut was obviously carefully repaired, and the thatched on the roof was new and neatly laid. The mud wall that should have been ugly was more beautiful than the walls of the city lord's mansion. It was surrounded by a yard alone. It was obviously a thatched hut, but it gave people a noble sense of loneliness.

Li Yang had seen the slums in Wushuang City, where there were thatched huts, but all the thatched huts there were not one ten thousandth of the one in front of him.

"Who is coming?" A sound full of energy came from the thatched hut.

"Passenger." Li Yang replied lightly, but was shocked in his heart.

He could actually find himself ten feet away, and he was definitely a human, not a bird, or other wild creatures. With this internal force alone, he was far from that. Perhaps Dugu Yifang could not compare.

"No passers-by will come here." The owner of the thatch obviously did not believe Li Yang's words.

"That's because you never saw me." Li Yang said unluckyly.

He did not lower his posture just because he knew that the other party was a peerless master. This person did not believe his words. If he acted respectfully again, it would only make the other party feel that he was even more suspicious.

The tone in the thatched hut was obviously stagnant, and then he said with a little interest: "Then I want to see you, a passerby."

"Cruff" the door of the thatched hut opened and an old man in his sixties and neat beard walked out.

He is indeed very old, but his waist is even straighter than a twenty-year-old boy.

"Have you seen enough?" the old man asked, meaning he had already observed Li Yang.

Li Yang nodded, and he had already observed the old man.

"What did you see?" The old man seemed to want to hear what this unique passerby would make of him.

"It's older than I thought." Li Yang said truthfully.

"Old?" The old man frowned, obviously not very satisfied.

"I heard your voice just now. I thought I would be a middle-aged man in my forties, but I didn't expect that he was an old man over fifty years old." Li Yang was still telling the truth, his tone was very plain, as if he was talking to an old man he met by chance on the roadside.

"Is that so? I... am so old." The old man murmured, lowered his head, and looked at his neat beard.

None of them is black.

Really old.

"But your waist is the straightest among the people I have ever seen, including me." Li Yang said suddenly.

Hearing this, the old man couldn't help looking at Li Yang's waist and then his waist

It seems to be true.

This discovery obviously made the old man feel good, "You passerby are interesting, why not come in and have a glass of water before leaving."

Li Yang refused, "Don't drink."

The old man was obviously stunned, and then his face darkened, "Are you afraid that I will harm you?"

Li Yang shook his head, "Your water must be very expensive, I have no money."

"Money?" A very strange expression was pulled out from the old man's face.

Li Yang pointed to the thatched hut behind him, "There are generally two types of thatched huts, one for the poor and the other for entertaining the rich."

"Will there be a rich man willing to live in thatched huts?" the old man asked in surprise. This was the first time he had heard such remarks in his life.

"Yes, and the charge is very high, higher than those inns and restaurants." Li Yang nodded.

"It's absolutely unheard of." The old man shook his head.

"You are you." Li Yang said with a smile.

The old man opened his mouth and asked hesitantly: "How can you conclude that I am a rich man."

"Because you are not a poor person, poor people cannot afford to live in such an exquisite thatched hut." Li Yang said, got off the horse and walked over briskly.

He pushed open the yard door, entered, came to the old man, and stood face to face.

The old man looked at him with a strange look on his face.

Li Yang smiled and said, "You said you wanted to treat me to water just now, but you don't have any money. Are you regretting it now?"

The old man did not go to pour water, but instead said with a frightened face: "Do you know that in decades, you have been the first person to dare to step into my husband's three steps?"

"I don't know." Li Yang seemed to be deliberately provoking him.

"Do you know now?" The old man stared at him.

It is hard to imagine that an old man in the twilight actually has a pair of eyes that are sharper than an eagle.

"Those who don't know are not guilty, let alone you let me come in and drink water." Li Yang said unluckyly.

"That's the reason." The old man nodded and pointed to the water tank in the yard.

"The water is there."

"Do you want me to do it yourself?" Li Yang asked.

How can there be a reason why the host entertains guests but lets the guests do it themselves?

"How can I fold my waist for you?" The old man's tone was filled with deep pride.

"Okay." Li Yang nodded, walked to the water tank, picked up the wooden cover, and scooped water with the scoop inside. He didn't bother him and drank it in his mouth.

"I just need to drink more at your straight waist." Li Yang scooped up another scoop.

"You can take some away." The old man stroked his beard and said with a smile.

"Good idea." Li Yang walked out of the yard and took off the water bag on the horse's back. He poured it out and turned to the water in the water tank in the yard.

The old man kept looking at it and suddenly asked, "Have you ever seen someone?"

"Who?" Li Yang asked.

"The person who delivered food to me." The old man said lightly.

"Looking at your tone, you probably don't know what the food delivery person is called."

"yes."

"Look?"

"Not noticed."

How insignificant is the old man's eyes?

Li Yang sighed, "Then why are you paying attention again now?"

"Because he hasn't delivered food to me for six days." The old man's tone was still calm, as if he didn't care about the life and death of the person who delivered food.

Li Yang was stunned, "Don't tell me, you haven't had a meal in six days?"

"yes."

"..." Li Yang.

He had a very strong feeling that this proud peerless master should be hungry when he walked out of the hut to talk to him.

"Don't you plan to cook by yourself?" Li Yang couldn't help asking.

The old man stretched out his hands, "Do you see, my husband's hands look like the hands of cooking?"

Li Yang really walked over and looked at it. He looked at it very seriously, and then sighed: "It really doesn't look like it."

More than just not like.

The old man's hand bones are extremely large and covered with calluses. The calluses of the person who washes and cooks will grow on the palm of his palm, but his calluses are on his fingers. When he thinks of his peerless internal strength, it is not difficult to imagine that this must be a pair of hands that are used to holding some kind of weapon.

Li Yang's eyes shifted from the old man's hands and looked up at the old man's indifferent eyes.

An old man in his sixties who doesn’t eat for six days and doesn’t even shout hungry?

Still so straight?

Li Yang sighed: "You must have a glorious past, so you have this unimaginable pride."

"Glorious, very brilliant!" the old man affirmed, his eyes showing a look of memories.

"Do you want to be more brilliant?" Li Yang could feel the old man's heart that was dissatisfied with his old age.
