Guigu Cave is located in a valley deep in Longhu Mountain.

It took a lot of effort for Tang Ding to find this place, just because there were very few people who knew about this ghost valley cave, and even the locals didn't know it, and the location was very hidden.

However, Zhang Hongxuan said in detail, Tang Ding's footsteps were fast, but despite this, Tang Ding found the valley where the Guigu Cave was located three days later.

For the past three days, Tang Ding ate and lived in the mountains. Although the conditions were difficult, Tang Ding was able to use as much of his already full mental power as possible. Before, Tang Ding's spiritual power was full because he absorbed too much spiritual energy, which did not match his meridians and dantian, but along the way, Tang Ding's spiritual power has become more and more comfortable, and the meridians have become wider and wider.

Ghost Valley, a stream flows from the valley to the outside of the valley, as soon as Tang Ding entered, he felt that there seemed to be something different here, there was no aura here, if there was aura, Tang Ding would have seen it a long time ago.

Now it is not as good as before, at that time, there are still some remnants of the aura in the nature of heaven and earth, due to modern pollution, man-made destruction, the city where the crowd is concentrated is no longer the aura, but the poisonous gas, even in the famous mountains and rivers that used to be called the blessed land of the cave, the aura is also polluted by the poisonous gas that gradually spreads in the city, and the aura has long disappeared. Of course, there are still some places where the aura is, and it must be under the effect of a formation that can lock the aura.

Some of these formations are set artificially, some are naturally formed, and of course the latter is the most. The artificially set formations are all owned by famous factions, but due to the lack of formations or the change of aura, there are fewer and fewer people who can form formations, and the circulation of formations is also less and less.

However, although there was no aura in this valley, Tang Ding felt a little different.

What's the difference? I can't say, but Tang Ding just feels like there are a lot of stories here.

A ghost valley well will not dry up for a thousand years.

The vines outside the cave grew luxuriantly, but Tang Ding noticed that the valley seemed to be a sign of human activity.

Tang Ding was overjoyed, could it be that his parents lived in seclusion here?

This is indeed possible.

Tang Ding quickened his pace and entered the Guigu Cave, although the Guigu Cave was dark, but it was no obstacle to Tang Ding, Tang Ding walked through quickly, and came to a natural wide stone cave, where there were obvious signs of perennial habitation. Because there are stone beds, stone tables, stone tables and stone benches, and most importantly, there are bedding on the stone bed, and the ground is dusty.

But there was not only one cave that Tang Ding had come to, there was also a hole that led in the other direction, and Tang Ding was anxious to find out who the person who lived here was, so he ran briskly in the other direction.

In the other direction, not far away is an open-air meadow in the shape of an enclosed patio.

An old man with gray hair and ragged clothes was cooking on a fire in front of a homemade stove in the distance.

Tang Ding was a little disappointed, and it was really not his parents. However, Tang Ding still walked over quickly, and when he approached the old man three or four steps, the old man suddenly turned around and saw Tang Ding, his expression was first surprised, then confused, and finally surprised.

"Tang Ding?" Before Tang Ding could speak, the old man spoke first.

Tang Ding was stunned, but he didn't expect this old man to know him, so he could only nod his head first, "Yes, my surname is Tang, how do you know my name, old man?"

"Hehe, come here, help me cook!" The old man was not polite, he didn't answer Tang Ding's question, but directly asked Tang Ding to help him cook.

Tang Ding didn't hesitate, since he could call out his name, he was not an outsider, although Tang Ding wanted to ask why, but he also knew that some things would definitely not work if he was in a hurry.

Tang Ding obediently went over to cook with the old man, and the pot was steamed with sweet potatoes, because Tang Ding smelled the smell of sweet potatoes.

Tang Ding lit the fire and added firewood, while the old man went to find some wild vegetables and made them with hot water, which happened to be out of the pot with the sweet potatoes in the pot.

Lifted the pot, picked up four or five sweet potatoes, and then the old man brought a scoop of wild vegetables and brought them to the stone cave with Tang Ding.

The scoop of wild vegetables is a gourd made from local materials, which is split in half. The utensils used to serve sweet potatoes are also half gourds, and everything reveals a kind of simplicity and naturalness.

"Let's have a bite to eat. ”

The old man didn't ask Tang Ding at all, but directly pulled him to sit on the stone bench, and the sweet potatoes and wild vegetables were placed on the stone table.

Tang Ding hadn't eaten a hot meal for almost a week, at this time, although it was the simplest sweet potato, Tang Ding still had a big appetite, and Tang Ding was just about to start, when the old man shouted "Wait".

"I still have home-brewed sweet potato wine here, let's drink some together!"

This was still not to ask Tang Ding, but directly brought the wine, and the scooping was still a gourd with the head and seeds removed, and the utensils for pouring the wine were two wooden cups.

None of these things seem to have been used for a year or two, but they are smooth and abnormal, and they are obviously used regularly.

I took a sip of sweet potato wine, the first taste is wine, and then the aftertaste is sweet, the wine is combined with the sweetness of sweet potato, the aroma of koji, and the taste of the wine is quite heavy, at first glance, it has been distilled and purified several times.

After taking a sip of sweet potato wine, and then taking a big bite of sweet potato, Tang Ding found that this thing was delicious, maybe he hadn't eaten cooked food for too long.

"Old man, how do you know my name?" After three glasses of wine, Tang Ding finally asked the question he wanted to ask the most.

"How do I know? Hehe, guess what?"

Tang Ding shook his head, he really couldn't guess. If this old man is a friend of his adoptive father and adoptive mother, this is obviously impossible, this old man is introverted, brisk, he looks like a practicing family, and the most important thing is that his eyes reveal a shrewd light, this is not a simple old man, his adoptive parents have no chance to know such a character!

If this person is a friend of his own biological parents, this is in the past, and when Tang Ding met the old man for the first time, he immediately fused him with his father's master that Wang Meng said, this person should be his father's master, his own master.

But this speculation of Don Ding was overturned as he called out his name. Tang Ding remembers very well that his adoptive parents said that he was picked up by them at the entrance of the hospital when he was born, and his name has nothing to do with his biological parents, his adoptive father Tang Guoqing and adoptive mother Ding Caixia gave the name Tang Ding, and even if Tang Guoqing is not surnamed Tang, then Tang Ding's surname is different from his biological parents.

However, the fact that the old man was able to call out his name when he saw him showed that he was no stranger to himself, and that he should hate familiarity.

Tang Ding really couldn't guess who this old man was?

"Hehe, let me remind you, I've seen you three times, and you've seen me at least twice, once when you were studying in Yancheng No. 3 Middle School, you were out of school, I was sitting at the school gate, and you gave me two yuan. Another time, it's been a little long, it's your elementary school,"

"Huh, is that you?" I remembered. "Tang Ding's brain is very useful, he inherited Tang Zhendong's Yu Qingying's genes, his brain has a good memory, and he will never forget it.

Tang Ding wanted to ask why you appeared in our school, but he suddenly connected the whole thing: if the old man can remember it so clearly, it means that he must have gone to see himself, and it is not strange for him to remember the old man, because there are not many beggars at the school gate, because the school does not allow it. But it was not easy for the old man to remember himself, because hundreds of students were out of school together, wearing school uniforms, and he could recognize himself among a crowd of students, which showed that he had come for himself at all.

Why did he come for himself? And he can recognize himself at a glance, which shows that he is not an unknown person with himself, as for the previous elementary school events, Tang Ding was still young at that time, and he really can't remember.

Who can be ignorant of himself, and he can still come over to look at himself, it is obvious that he is a friend of his biological parents, and this person must have a close relationship with his parents.

"Your surname is Xu?" asked Tang Ding.

Xu Zhuo laughed, "Good boy, worthy of your father's son, his brain is fast enough." Yes, I am your master. ”

Although Tang Ding only had two impressions of Xu Zhuo, one was the sloppy old man now, and the other was a beggar at the school gate, but the two images soon coincided.

If it is not a good relationship, how can he pretend to be a beggar at the school gate and squat for a long time in order to see himself? If the relationship is not in place, how can he let himself cook on the fire when he sees himself at a glance, this old man is obviously very familiar with himself, he has never regarded himself as an outsider, not for anything else, he went to see himself three times for the old man, and Tang Ding burst into tears.

I finally found my loved ones!

"Grandpa!" Tang Ding knelt on the ground with a puff, and tears immediately welled up in his eyes, which were the tears of seeing his relatives.

Once upon a time, Tang Ding thought that his parents didn't want him anymore, although he had adoptive parents, but he still felt that his world was a little broken, this was because he had not seen his biological parents.

A child's life is incomplete without the love of his biological parents.

Tang Ding thinks so, but today he knows that although he has not been loved by his biological parents, there is a grandfather who has been silently paying attention to him, but he has never let himself know.

"Good boy!" Xu Zhuo touched Tang Ding's head and helped him up, "Get up quickly, it's cold on the ground." ”

"Grandpa, have you spent all these years here?" Tang Ding looked at Xu Zhuo's ragged clothes and eating wild vegetables, and he was ashamed in his heart, although this was not his reason.

Xu Zhuo nodded, and Tang Ding immediately took Xu Zhuo's hand, "Grandpa, you go down the mountain with me, and I will raise you in the future." ”

"This is the place where your ancestors and grandparents stayed, and I will guard here and not go anywhere. ”

Tang Ding saw that Xu Zhuo's tone was too resolute, and he no longer persuaded him, but asked what he wanted to know the most: "Grandpa, do you know where my parents went?"
