After waiting for a few minutes and exchanging more pleasantries, an old man using a walking stick appeared from a distance.
He was walking slowly but one could tell that despite his old age, he still had the vigor of a younger person.
He walked with slow but quite steady steps to the tree where the group of old men and the newcomers were sitting.
Chu Miao and Ye Xuan stood up and bowed to the old man.
This was also due to respect and the fact that he was even older than her grandfather.
"Hello chief."
"Hello elder."
The two of them greeted him at the same time.
"Hello young friends. Please sit down." The chief invited them to sit back down. He then waved at the woman who had brought him over and instructed her to serve them tea.
"What are our friends doing so far out of the city?" The chief asked.
Listening to him and what the other elder had asked earlier, it seemed that they don't get visitors very often.
