Chapter 300 - 166: Paperman Funeral, Old Friends at Rest (Part 2)
Hu Baosong arrived outside the Five Elders Temple, knocking on the door to ask clearly. At the time, Zichen was just inside the door, and the two were separated only by the door, with Zichen speaking clearly.
The Temple Master is aged, and she cannot abandon the old Temple Master for her selfish desires.
Zichen spoke a lot, and when there was no sound outside, she opened the door but found Hu Baosong’s figure had disappeared.
At the door, only a lonely leaf fell from the tree, just like the leaf she caught while playing flute in front of the temple before.
Once Zichen closed the temple door, Hu Baosong’s figure suddenly flashed out from behind a tree not far away.
He looked at the temple door, a breeze blowing, scattering fallen leaves, leaving only a trace of melancholy in front of the deep quiet temple.
After that, Hu Baosong continued to travel the world. In between, he made some female confidants, but he always took out only half of the Heart Moon Fox jade ring to admire alone in the dead of night.
The jade ring was left by Hu Baosong’s mother; originally there were a pair, but the other one was at the Five Elders Temple...
At about two hundred years old, Hu Baosong returned to Underground Street, and by then, his coffin shop had already been reclaimed by the government and rented to someone else.
Hu Baosong was shocked and, despite the obstruction of the shopkeeper, rushed into the courtyard. Only when he saw that the peach tree was still flourishing did he relax.
After that, Hu Baosong produced a house contract that had been stored for two hundred years, claiming he was his own great-grandson and said his ancestors lived here.
The shopkeeper didn’t care about these things. Nowadays, it’s the Yong Dynasty’s world; the old house contract from the previous dynasty is useless.
