() "Come on, it's about to be dinner, Uncle Lin has prepared a lot of food today!" Ta Ta Mu walked in front, a little impatient, although Lu Tao didn't know who Uncle Lin was in Ta Ta Mu's mouth, and why he opened up a vegetable garden here?

There is a small wooden house next to the vegetable garden, the style of the wooden house is completely different from the style of the houses in the Black Dragon Village, most of the houses in the Black Dragon Village are made of stone, wood is very rare here, if the value of the items in this world is evaluated according to the rarity, then this house made of wood should be very valuable.

It's a pity that the value of the items here is not determined by the number of them in this world, Lu Tao followed Tatam into the wooden house, but felt a little damp, not as dry and transparent as the stone houses in the original Black Dragon Village.

There was an old man in the wooden house, holding a long wooden spoon in his hand and stirring in a copper tripod-like utensil, and a strong fragrance emanated in the room, making Lu Tao can't help but shrug his nose, it is really fragrant.

"Tatam, is this what you call your friend?"

The old man saw Ta Tamu leading a person in, stopped what he was doing, squinted his eyes, and looked at Lu Tao from top to bottom: "It looks like a good guy, come on, sit down quickly, we're going to have dinner!"

The old man's voice was a little hoarse, and after he finished speaking to Lu Tao, he didn't speak again, but continued to stir the things in the ding with the long wooden spoon in his hand.

Tatam stretched out his hand and pulled Lu Tao and led him to a square wooden table: "Let's go, let's sit down first!"

After a while, the old man put a wooden bowl full of food in front of Lu Tao and said, "Eat, be careful of scalding!"

Lu Tao glanced at the contents of the wooden board, the green leaves seemed to be the plants planted in the vegetable garden outside, bones and pieces of meat, Lu Tao couldn't tell the difference, but the aroma coming from above was very familiar, Lu Tao vaguely remembered that it seemed to have smelled somewhere, and when he thought about it carefully, it seemed to be when Uncle York was at home.

Lowering his voice, Lu Tao approached the ear of Ta Tamu, who had already begun to pick up the food in the wooden bowl with chopsticks, and asked, "What kind of place is this? Who is this old man? How did I not know that there was such a place next to the village?"

"Hmph, if you have any questions, just ask me face to face, don't sneak around like a thief, there is nothing you can't say here!

The old man put his share of food on the table, glared at Lu Tao, and said angrily, after speaking, the old man picked up the chopsticks at hand, and stuffed a piece of meat into his mouth, showing an expression of enjoyment while chewing.

"Tell me, what do you want to ask?"

"Forehead......" Du Tao hesitated for a moment, but still asked directly: "What is this place? Who are you? Those plants outside are you planted, and what are those animals?"

The old man stuffed another piece of meat into his mouth, but replied without hesitation: "I heard Tatam say that you came to this world from outside.

It just so happens that my father also came here from outside, and everything in this world is good, but there is no sun, and there is no sun, it is really uncomfortable to die, don't you feel this way?"

Lu Tao was stunned for a moment, he really didn't feel this way, and he didn't know if his physique had changed after becoming a monk, even if he hadn't seen the sun for a long time, Lu Tao didn't feel particularly uncomfortable, but it had been a long time, and the cold below made him a little unbearable, of course, this could also be because Lu Tao ran out almost every day for so many days, there was no sun below, and the sun above was very big.

The old man didn't seem to have the intention of asking Lu Tao to answer the question, after he asked this question, he said to himself: "There is no sun below to freeze to death, there is a sun above, but every night I have to be harassed by the beasts, and speaking of which, the materials below are too scarce, I just ate more in the original village, and was driven out by the village chief." The plants you see are what my father and I have spent decades cultivating, and although the conditions are a bit harsh, it is already a great thing that they can grow in the underground world with the light of the moss above their heads, and as for those animals, they are wooden dragons, the main source of meat in this world, and the taste is not bad, but they are rare and difficult to catch. ”

Lu Tao was stunned, he suddenly remembered a question, since the food here is very scarce, so this old man put such a large amount of food here, wouldn't he be remembered by others? Lu Tao knew that for food, not only animals can do anything, but humans can also do anything, death may not be a painful thing, but hunger is a more painful thing than death.

"You're trying to ask why no one is coming to grab these things, right? Hehe, joke, they want to rob them, and they have to be able to get in!"

As he spoke, the old man whistled, and it didn't take long for a gray wolf to jump in from the window, glanced at Lu Tao with a pair of sharp eyes, stretched out his nose and sniffed at Lu Tao, and then he lay down on the old man's hand, lying on the ground and wagging his tail.

"With it, no one wants to sneak in, unless they want to become fertilizer in my yard!"

Lu Tao nodded, and then glanced at the huge gray wolf lying on the ground, this thing is a little tricky for him to deal with, unless he uses illusion to disturb his spirit, the agility and strength of the wolf creature are enough for Lu Tao to eat a pot, but I don't know where the old man found this wolf, Lu Tao is very skeptical, in this underground world, can such a creature be produced.

Without asking extra questions for the time being, Lu Tao began to feel sorry for the food in his wooden bowl, the kind of vegetables like wrapping cauliflower outside, plus the meat of the wooden dragon, the combined taste simply amazed Lu Tao, there was no need to put condiments such as monosodium glutamate at all, a smell revealed from the ingredients filled Lu Tao's mouth, and after eating the meat and vegetables inside, the thick soup full of the taste of all the ingredients was also delicious enough, the only drawback was that it would be better if there was another piece of steamed bread.

Without steamed buns or rice, Lu Tao always felt that something seemed to be missing, and that was probably a habit he had developed over the past 20 years.

"If not

Enough, you can have another bowl, rest assured, today Tatam said that there are guests coming, so I make more, and eat more if you want. ”

After listening to the old man's words, Lu Tao didn't bother more, but handed the bowl in his hand to the old man and said, "Then I'll trouble you, thank you!"

Waiting for a bowl of new food, steaming on the table, Lu Tao smelled the aroma of the food, feeling a little satisfied, if there was no Uncle York and their family's warmth, this kind of life of eating and drinking is not bad, thinking of this, Lu Tao opened his mouth and asked: "Uncle, if you can leave this world and return to the original world, what will you think?"

"Of course, that's the best, my father since he came here, the only thing he can't forget is to go back to his original world, even if he met my mother later and gave birth to me, this idea has not changed, you also come from above, you should know, those plants outside, it's quite difficult to grow here, but it's very simple to plant on it, after I go back to it, I will definitely open up a vegetable garden, and plant some of the plants that my father never forgets, not only to eat, but also to see。 The old man was eating the food in his bowl while answering Lu Tao's question indifferently.

"If you say...... If there is a chance to return to the world above, but this opportunity is accompanied by some kind of danger, maybe you will die, even so, uncle, do you still want to go back to it?" Lu Tao thought about it, and still asked this question, he didn't have the confidence to face the consequences of letting the people in the entire small world die, if he could find some kind of strength from others, he could do it without regrets.

"What's that!" the old man stuffed a piece of meat into his mouth: "Am I still afraid of death at my age?" If I can go back to it before I die, and look at the world that my father has never forgotten, I think it will be worth it, but I am afraid that this is impossible, my father has been looking for it all his life, and he has not found a way to go back, he has even found vegetables that can grow in this world, but he has not been able to find a way to go back. ”

Tatam next to him had eaten his fill, put down his chopsticks, and joined the conversation: "Lu Tao, what if you can find a way to get out and take some risks? For young people of our age, isn't adventure exactly what we desire? I like adventure, and I want to go anywhere to adventure, by the way, I only heard a legend that the opportunity to leave here is in the Grand Canyon, Lu Tao, if you go to the Grand Canyon next time, can you take me with you?"

"Grand Canyon Grand Canyon, heh, I'll tell you Tatam. The old man pouted: "Actually, the legend of the big guy is passed on by my father, my father, and those like-minded people who think they have found some secrets in the Grand Canyon, and spent a lifetime to solve these secrets, but in the end they found that there is no effect at all, you also know another legend, this world is in the body of a big bug, but unfortunately, there are no big bugs here, there is only an entrance here, there is no exit." ”

Listening to the old man's words, Lu Taotao fell into deep thought, although what the old man said seemed to be different from what the head of Heilong Village, Fake, said, but in general, all the goals were focused on the Grand Canyon, and Lu Tao made up his mind that he must go to the Grand Canyon again as soon as possible.
