Douluo: My martial spirit can cultivate

Chapter 152 I'm Heartbroken
During the five months since Yan Ming disappeared.

The entire continent is subtly changing, with entertainment and cultural companies taking the lead, creating an era of technology and speeding up the progress of civilization.

Yan Ming drove all the way from Star Dou Great Forest to Notting City of Heaven Dou Empire.

Along the way, I saw many shadows of modern technology. The country roads have been paved with concrete roads, there are vehicles coming and going, traffic lights at intersections, and billboards on the streets.

For a moment, Yan Ming felt that he was in the original world.

Soon Yan Ming and Xiao Wu arrived at Yaolian Village outside Notting City.

The moment he came to the village, Yan Ming thought he had come to the wrong place.

At the entrance of the entire village, a sign was erected with the words;

"The hometown of Yan Ming, Yaolian Village."

There is also a portrait of Yan Ming printed on it, Yan Ming's eyelids twitched when he saw it, and Xiao Wu, the co-pilot, covered her mouth and snickered, her body trembling from laughter.

There are still people collecting entrance fees at the entrance of the village, and a long queue of vehicles is moving forward little by little.

"What's the matter? I haven't come back for more than a year, and the village has become like this. Returning Yan Ming's hometown, this is collecting money in my name."

Yan Ming was also very annoyed.

Suddenly, Yan Ming noticed the vehicle in front of him, and from time to time someone poked his head out to look at him. Yan Ming who wanted to understand quickly took out two hats and two pairs of sunglasses from his storage ring.

Throwing Xiao Wu a hat and a pair of sunglasses, motioning Xiao Wu to put them on, Yan Ming hurriedly put them on too.

As expected, two men got off from the vehicle in front and wanted to shoot Yan Ming with cameras in their hands.

Yan Ming opened the car window, pointed at the two and shouted, "What are you taking pictures of?"

The two of them saw that this person was wearing sunglasses and a hat. From his appearance, it was impossible to tell whether this was Yan Ming, and they also saw that this person's attitude was so strong.

He quickly apologized and said, "Sorry, sorry, I thought you were Yan Ming."

After apologizing, I immediately returned to the car.

Xiao Wu, the co-pilot, sneered, "Look, at the time when he was the most popular in the soul master contest, now fans are chasing him to the door."

Yan Ming also regretted it, "Hey, I don't want to do this either. As long as my speech can inspire people, let's slowly line up and enter the village."

After waiting for half a day, I finally entered the village.

After driving into the village, I saw a statue of Yan Ming placed in the center of the village.

Yan Ming just chuckled when he saw it, and followed the familiar road to his grandfather's house.

Parked the car on the side of the road, still in the familiar yard, still in the familiar small wooden house, the old man was still sitting in the yard leisurely drinking tea.

Yan Ming stepped into the courtyard, just about to call out to grandpa kindly, but unexpectedly the old man said directly, "Who are you?"

It was only then that Yan Ming remembered that he was still wearing sunglasses, and immediately took off the hat, "Grandpa, it's me."

A joyful smile instantly appeared on the old man's face, he stood up and asked anxiously, "Where's that girl Xiao Wu?"

Yan Ming's expression collapsed immediately, I thought your happy smile and anxious expression were for me, but I didn't expect you to be for Xiao Wu.

"Grandpa, I'm here."

Xiao Wu came out from behind Yan Ming, and took off her sunglasses and hat casually.

After the old man saw Xiao Wu, the smile on his face didn't stop, and all the wrinkles were squeezed out.

"How big is the girl? The longer she grows, the more juicy she is. I don't think Yan Ming is good enough for you."

"Did Yan Ming bully you? Tell me. I'll teach him a lesson for you. See if I don't beat his ass to pieces."

Xiao Wu just smiled awkwardly, every word Grandpa said was hard to answer.

Seeing this scene, Yan Ming regretted coming to see the old man, and every word he said deeply hurt Yan Ming's heart.

The old man waved to Yan Ming and Xiao Wu with a full smile, "Come on, let's sit down and chat."

"You haven't come to visit my old man for more than a year. I miss you."

"During the period, what company sent me a message saying that you were missing."

"Can you tell me what happened?"

Yan Ming and Xiao Wu stepped forward to sit on the stone bench. Hearing the old man's question, Yan Ming gave Xiao Wu a look, indicating that you are here to lie.

Xiao Wu understood, and said to grandpa; "We are traveling to enjoy the scenery. It is normal for others to find us, so they will think that we are missing."

"So don't worry, Grandpa, I still have some pictures of the scenery taken during my travels."

Xiao Wu took out some photos from the storage ring, all kinds of beautiful scenery of mountains and rivers, there are all kinds of them.

The old man looked at these photos and not only praised the uncanny craftsmanship of nature.

"As long as you have fun."

The old man put down the photo and yelled at Yan Ming, "You boy, what did you do outside, the whole village you created is almost named after you."

"In the past few months, people often came to my place, doing interviews and other messy things. If people from some company didn't stop me, I, an old man, would be annoyed to death."

Yan Ming sincerely apologized, "I'm sorry, Grandpa, I didn't want to do this either, it backfired."

Seeing such a well-behaved apology, the old man stretched out his hand and rubbed Yan Ming's face in relief, "You boy, you have been poisonous since you were a child, it's not easy to hear your apology."

Yan Ming didn't feel anything at first when his head was rubbed, but suddenly it seemed that he was electrocuted, and Yan Ming's whole body trembled.

Yan Ming stroked his hair, thought it was static electricity and didn't care, but when he looked up, he felt that the old man seemed to have aged a lot in such a flash.

I don't know if it was an illusion, but this feeling disappeared all of a sudden.

The old man picked up the tea on the stone table, took a sip and said, "This time you came back to visit me, and you didn't bring a child back. I still want to hug my great-grandson before I die."

Xiao Wu's face flushed with embarrassment when she heard this, she turned her head away and dared not look at Yan Ming directly.

Yan Ming said very speechlessly; "Grandpa, we are still young, it's too early for children to say this."

It's okay if Yan Ming didn't say anything, but when he talked about the old man, he became even angrier, "Why are you still young, the old Liu next door has already hugged his great-grandson, if you have time, you can hug his great-grandson and run to me to show off."

"His grandson came back with a great-grandson at the age of 16. You are almost eighteen this year. Isn't that young?"

Yan Ming muttered in a low voice; "To be precise, he is 17 and a half years old, not yet eighteen."

The old man sighed deeply, "I've lived a long time, and I'm half buried. I just want to hold my great-grandson's wish, can't it be fulfilled?"

The old man held Yan Ming's hand tightly with his rough hands, with a look of old tears.

"Xiao Ming, I don't ask you anything. I just hope to see your wedding before I die. This small request should not be difficult for you."

This request is indeed not difficult for Yan Ming, but he is not very clear why the old man is suddenly so anxious.

But if you think about it carefully, the old man's anxiety does have its source. In Douluo Continent, getting married early and having children is a normal thing, and one can be considered an adult at sixteen, so it is quite normal for the old man to be anxious.
