Chapter 81: Zhang Shaokun's Cellar

There are not many carriages around these three immortal villages, and the location is relatively remote.

In between, not many people are here.

I saw that outside the Three Immortals Village at this time, there was already a dark-skinned and thin man who seemed to be waiting for them.

After getting out of the carriage, the man walked in the direction of Shi Ren and them.

When the man approached, he had a smile on his face.

"Shi Ren, it's been a long time. ”

As soon as he came up, the man shook Shi Ren's hand.

"Haichuan, I'm sorry, I haven't been in touch for so long, and I'm suddenly bothering you. ”

The man named Haichuan looked the same age as Shi Ren, but because of his dark skin, he looked a little older.

"This is ......"

Haichuan set his eyes on Cheng Erting, who was standing aside.

I saw Cheng Erting smile slightly and briefly introduce herself.

And Shi Ren also introduced this man named Haichuan.

It turned out that this man's full name was Zhou Haichuan, and he was a friend whom Shi Ren met from previous travels, and ran the water shop with his father at home.

Zhou Haichuan's gaze stayed on her for one more moment, and then looked at Shi Ren again.

"Old Shi, you are here this time, you can't leave in a hurry, prepare food at home, and I can still take you to play after eating. ”

Shi Ren nodded and said, "That's natural, but you have to get down to business first." ”

"Oh, yes, yes, let's get down to business, let's go, the family I told you about before is not very far from my family. ”

"That family, stupid, what family?" Cheng Erting said with some confusion.

Shi Ren said: "This matter is a long story, my grandfather said before that the Vermilion Bird Stone is accompanied by strange fire, so I was thinking. ”

"Xu Fu, who had seen this strange fire at that time, if they really wanted to seal the Vermilion Bird Stone, they would definitely find an extremely cold place to store it. ”

"And then?"

"So I looked for clues from the extremely cold land, and finally let me find it, there are historical records that during the Warring States Period, there were Qi people who found a large piece of unmelting ice on the seaside. ”

"Coming from the extreme south, a local official gave this piece of cold ice to the king of Qi at that time, but the Qin state quickly destroyed the Qi state, and this piece of cold ice naturally fell into the hands of Qin Shi Huang. ”

Cheng Erting said suddenly: "You mean, Xu Fu is very likely to find a way to seal the Vermilion Bird Stone based on this piece of ice, right?"

Shi Ren nodded and said, "Exactly." ”

"But what does this have to do with the house we're going to?"

At this time, Zhou Haichuan, who had been walking in the front to lead the way, turned around and said: "Speaking of that piece of ice, in fact, the ancestors of our village kept a lot of small pieces at that time. ”

"However, because of thousands of years of war, famine and so on, there is only one piece left now. ”

"So the house we're going to is the only one with this piece of ice, right?"

Zhou Haichuan nodded and said: "Your sister is quite smart, this family is an uncle of mine in my village, named Zhang Shaokun, and my father is young. ”

"Their family has a big cellar since they were a child, and it is cold all year round under the cellar, which is enough to store vegetables and other foods, and our family also has vegetables stored here, because it is not a big deal, so outsiders don't know about this matter. ”

Shi Ren said: "Yes, I also remembered that Haichuan asked in Qilu Province, but I didn't expect that things in the world are so coincidental, Haichuan's village is the village when the ice drifted back then." ”

Cheng Erting nodded thoughtfully.

However, just when she looked at Shi Ren and was about to say something, she found that Shi Ren seemed to be thinking about something.

Although she wanted to go up and ask what the situation was, at this time, Zhou Haichuan had already walked to the door and knocked lightly on the door of Zhang Shaokun's house.

After a while, the door opened, and a man who looked to be in his forties, with the same dark skin, walked out.

"Yo, it's Chuan'er. ”

"Uncle Shaokun, this is the friend I told you about before, he just wants to come and see the cold ice under your cellar. ”

Zhang Shaokun turned his gaze to Shi Ren and Cheng Erting, and after staying on Cheng Erting's body for a while, he looked at Zhou Haichuan again with a smile.

"The people in this city are different, and it's worth breaking the ice together to go down to the village to see, let's go, take you to see. With that, he turned and led the three of them into the house.

When they came to the courtyard of Zhang Shaokun's house, a well-like cellar that was obviously protruding directly met Shi Ren and Cheng Erting's eyes.

It is no different from the entrance of the cellar in ordinary rural areas, except that the area around this cellar is relatively clean, and it seems that Zhang Shaokun's family should have cleaned it less.

"Well, this is the cellar, I'll take you down, the ice is down there. ”

As he spoke, Zhang Shaokun had already opened the lid made of wooden planks above the cellar.

Placing the lid aside, he walked up and walked down the steps under the cellar to the cellar.

"Old Shi, let's go. ”

Zhou Haichuan did not delay, and directly followed Zhang Shaokun to the cellar below.

Shi Ren glanced at Cheng Erting behind him and said, "You are following behind me, there should be no big problem." ”

Cheng Erting nodded, and the two walked directly to the cellar.

As soon as they stepped into the cellar, a thick chill came over them.

Shi Ren and Cheng Erting had just gone down to the cellar when a cold breath came to their faces.

Although it was already the height of summer, the chill still made the two of them shiver.

"It's cold. Cheng Erting couldn't help but let out a white air.

This is, Zhang Shaokun said: "Let's go, the ice cube is still behind." ”

As he spoke, he turned around and continued to lead the way.

Shi Ren, Cheng Erting, and Zhou Haichuan didn't stay long, followed Zhang Shaokun's steps, and walked towards the depths of the cellar.

After walking for about a minute, a large storage room appeared in front of Shi Ren and Cheng Erting.

As Zhou Haichuan said before, the depth of this cellar is really large, and the height of the storage room is four or five meters high.

On the left and right, there are neatly placed various vegetables and fruits, with different names written on them.

This should be the vegetables that the surrounding villagers put in Zhang Shaokun's house.

I continued to walk inward for a distance of more than ten meters, and came to a door at the end.

There was no protection, just an ordinary iron door, and a rather thick glove hung from the iron door.

I saw Zhang Shaokun putting his gloves on his hands and preparing to open the door.

"You're finally here?"

Suddenly, a voice appeared in Cheng Erting's mind.
