City's Appreciation Eye

Chapter 246 The old past

It's just that a mere piece of wood can possess such a strange and powerful charm. It really opened Bai Hao's eyes. He had never encountered such a mysterious carving technique before.

"Ok?"

Bai Hao squinted his eyes and turned his head to look at the clumps of fiery red flowers that were still blooming in the ice and snow on the other side. It was the faint fragrance that exuded from them just now. Could it be that the mystery lies in the flowers?

"Young talent."

Oda Yi's eyes were full of admiration, and he couldn't help clapping his hands and laughing. The laughter was thick and powerful, and it was impossible to tell that this was an old man over eighty years old.

"How? Are you still not convinced?"

Pala proudly showed a provocative smile to Kobayashi-san. Kobayashi blushed and turned his head away from speaking. His fair cheeks were flushed with anger. Pala was dumbfounded. I have to say that his skin is very delicate. .

Bai Hao walked into the room and smiled slightly. The wolf king girl's eyes were indifferent. Naturally, these trivial matters would not attract her too much attention.

Kennessa could not conceal her appreciation in her eyes. After all, she was still a noblewoman, and she liked Bai Hao's knowledgeable side even more.

It also surprised her even more. Behind a man with such a powerful skill, he also has a lot of poetry and books, which is very attractive in itself.

"I really didn't expect that after so many years, I can still meet a man who can escape the charm of Yuzao. I am so happy today."

Bai Hao's eyes froze slightly, meaning could someone do it many years ago?

Oda Yi smiled and rang the copper bell, and the girls in kimono brought out a new round of dishes.

Braised blowfish, top Wagyu steak, Kabayaki eel...

Dongying relies on water, and Dongying people have long been good at drawing food inspiration from water. Fugu is a typical example of human pursuit of food at any cost. Every year, there are not a few people in Dongying who die from eating unclean puffer fish.

However, the freshness of puffer fish is addictive and unforgettable.

Pala grew up inland and had never seen puffer fish. Under the guidance of Kennessa, she ate happily. The wolf king girl also ate her chopsticks frequently, and she seemed to have a special liking for puffer fish.

"Little friend, I really want to know, have you discovered the secret before Yuzao?"

Oda asked with a smile.

Bai Hao picked up a piece of puffer fish meat, and it melted in his mouth. The full soup exploded in his mouth. It was extremely delicious and could be called the best.

"You mean those red flowers next to it?"

Oda Yi laughed loudly, he didn't care about being told the secret, on the contrary, he was more happy to have a thousand cups of wine with his confidant!
"Not bad!"

The three girls were confused, Ling Qingbo was not interested in it, Kenisha and Pala were interested but didn't understand a single word, Bai Hao explained with a wry smile.

"I guess it should be that the floral fragrance of that kind of flower is mixed with the sandalwood fragrance in front of the carved jade algae to form a slightly hallucinogenic neurotoxin, which can make people fall into a hallucination unconsciously."

Bai Hao paused, and then admired from the bottom of his heart: "But that sculpture is really exquisite, it is definitely from the hands of a famous artist!"

Xiao Linsang finally found the right to speak, he smiled triumphantly.

"Hmph, even if you are a smart person, this Yuzao was carved by my grandfather. This is the work of my grandfather when he was young!"

Bai Hao was really shocked, and clasped his fists at the old man: "You have eyes but don't know Mount Tai, disrespect!"

"Hahaha, if a hero doesn't mention his bravery back then, what's the use of mentioning it now?"

Oda Yi saw this very openly, and laughed to signal for everyone to eat.

The meal was quite enjoyable, and Dongying's best sake was also invited out. It was sweet and sweet in the mouth, as clear as frost, leaving wisps of fragrance between the lips and teeth.

"What about the last level?"

Bai Hao asked curiously, the meal is almost done, and the best state is to be slightly drunk from wine, but the old man never mentioned the last hurdle.

Mentioning this, Oda Yui's wrinkled face showed a hint of sadness, he laughed at himself and shook his head slowly.

It seems that the past is like smoke, and it is too difficult for the old man to recall the vicissitudes of life after half a life, but today coincides with a bosom friend, and it is very uncomfortable not to say something in his heart.

"The third level is actually a revolving vase from Longquan Kiln. Unfortunately, it was broken a few years ago. There are only fragments left."

Bai Hao was shocked. Among the ancient porcelains, in terms of the difficulty of making them, the revolving vase is second to none. There is a vase in the vase, and when the outer vase is turned, the inner vase is as prosperous as a revolving lantern. There are all kinds of carvings of birds and animals. Taste!
When he was young, Bai Hao's dream was to be able to make a heart-changing bottle with his own hands, but he never thought that the old man would own this one.

The old man Oda Yi let out a long sigh.

"Things are impermanent. It doesn't matter if the Changing Heart Bottle is broken, but it's the treasure that my good granddaughter once caught and caught. I just think of my granddaughter."

When it came to sad things, the old man seemed a little excited, with tears in his eyes and a face full of remorse.

Xiao Linsang stepped forward to comfort Zhi Tianyi, and said sadly: "Grandpa, if my sister is alive in heaven, she will understand your regret."

Bai Hao fell into silence. This is a sad thing for others. What can he say?
On the contrary, Kennessa, who has rescued countless children, has the right to speak.

"Old man, may I ask who your granddaughter is?"

When Oda Yi mentioned this matter, he couldn't help revealing traces of anger and hatred in his eyes.

"My...my granddaughter was abducted. I was just going to buy her a lollipop. On the way, she...she was abducted by some men in black. They were too fast. Too late to catch up!"

When mentioning the past, the old man seemed quite excited and his voice trembled.

"I used the family's masters to catch up, but they injured the family's masters, and my granddaughter still failed to come back..."

Women are all emotional, and being a woman is more empathetic.

"It's too much, who are those people! It's lawless!"

"Is it in Sin City?"

"Old man, is there any characteristic on her body, maybe we can find it for you."

Kenisha and Pala threw a barrage of questions, like a cannonball.

Oda Yi smiled bitterly and shook his head, as if noticing that he had lost his composure, he sat up straight and shook his head.

"It's not in the City of Sin, but in the mainland of Japan. I've always wondered that there are such domineering and arrogant people in the mainland of Japan. I didn't know about it. Afterwards, I searched for a long time, and finally I found some clues."

The cold look in the old man's eyes flashed away, Kenisha and Pala didn't feel it, but in Bai Hao's eyes, the old man's aura changed completely, from a rich old man to a fierce tiger that chooses to eat people!
He has never had any human life on his hands, so he will never have such an aura.
