Chapter 162: Strange Old Man
The wooden door of a low house not far away was opened, but there was no light in the room. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Fortunately, Feng Jin's eyesight is much stronger than that of ordinary people, Luo Hua only heard the sound of the door opening, but after sweeping around, he had not yet locked which room it was, and Feng Jin had already walked over.
On the threshold stood a thin figure, hidden in the darkness and unable to see the true face, Feng Jin could only see this extent, the faint light of the green lantern sprinkled on the door of the house, reflecting a green and faint "black hole".
Luo Hua was a little scared, there were obviously people living in the house, why didn't he turn on the lights?
However, he remembered that Feng Jin had repeatedly told him that he couldn't speak, so he could only stuff this question into his stomach, and he was uncomfortable for a while.
Feng Jin walked to the door, looked at the thin figure, and bowed respectfully.
"Come in." A hoarse voice said, like a file sanding paper.
Luo Hua followed Feng Jin in, turned his head and glanced at the street outside, and found that all of a sudden he was overwhelmed by fog, and he couldn't even see the opposite house clearly, which was really strange. But curiosity is curiosity, he doesn't want to stay outside the house for a moment, and he can't wait to enter the house as fast as possible.
Along the way, there were more and more doubts in his heart, Luo Hua felt that he was going to be tortured to death, his appetite was always hanging, and many doubts were buried in his heart and could not be vented.
The door behind him squeaked and closed softly, but the figure was clearly walking in front, so who was closing the door in the back? Luo Hua didn't dare to turn his head and look behind him anymore, for fear of seeing something terrible.
He cautiously followed behind Feng Jin, and the distance between the two of them was getting closer and closer, almost sticking together.
Feng Jin asked, "What's wrong?" Why are you so close? ”
"I didn't ...... I just feel a little cold, get closer to it and get warmer......" Luo Hua's voice was clearly very nervous, and he still pretended to be calm, which made Feng Jin a little embarrassed.
"Is it cold? I saw sweat all over your forehead just now. Feng said carefully.
“……”
The room doesn't look big from the outside, but walking inside feels like walking in the auditorium, which reminds Feng Jin of the mysterious black house in Lion Mountain University, and the same is true of it inside.
He followed the thin black shadow in front of him for a long time before he saw him stop.
Then there was another hoarse voice.
"You two young men...... It's terrible! The Shadow said.
Then the light began to shine, and Kazejin noticed that there was a table in front of him, on which a candle was burned. When he finally saw the normal light source, his heart settled down a little.
The thin figure also revealed his figure, it turned out to be an old man, who looked seventy or eighty years old, with furrows on his face, but his hair was very long, and he was pulled into a bun on the top of his head, like a Taoist priest.
Luo Hua finally saw a living person, and immediately revealed his original form, and said in surprise: "Thank you grandpa for rescuing!" ”
Feng Jin turned his face to look at Luo Hua, a dark cloud rose on his face, Luo Hua realized that he had "broken the ring" again, he shouldn't speak, and immediately shut up.
"Thank you old gentleman for opening the door for both of us, I don't know what's going on, I can't see a single person on this street for a long time, it's completely different from what I saw when I came here." Feng said respectfully.
"Oh? Have you been here before? The old man asked in surprise.
Feng Jin nodded and said, "It was more than ten years ago, my master brought me here, and I saw people coming and going on the whole street at that time, why is it so deserted now?" ”
The old man did not answer his question, but asked, "Your master?" I don't know who it is? ”
"The family teacher is just a small family member in the small Taoist temple in the deep mountain village, and not many outsiders know about it, and the person who calls it 'Mu Xin Daoren' is my master." Feng said carefully.
"Mu Xin Dao people!! Your master is Mu Xin's senior? The old man exclaimed, as if he had heard something absolutely impossible.
Feng Jin obviously felt that his expression and tone were not like pretending, this old man might really be an old friend of the master, but why did he call the master a "senior"?
His master is very strict in disciplining his disciples on weekdays, Feng Jin has found that the master and his old man rarely go down the mountain to walk, the only time he went down the mountain was more than ten years ago when he followed the master to this Sandaoxing Village, but the memory of that year has been very vague, he can't remember some details clearly, and he has no impression of the old man in front of him.
If this old man and Master were old friends, Master would have brought him here to live here, but Feng Jin remembered that time he squatted on the street with Master all night, and he didn't ask Master for a specific reason, he just felt that Master was waiting for someone, but after waiting for a night, he didn't wait for the person Master wanted to see.
As soon as the morning dawned, Master took him back, and did not stay in Sandaoxing Village for a second longer.
Feng Jin remembered this detail vividly, he couldn't figure out why Master had traveled thousands of miles to stay in this unknown mountain village for one night and then left, and then he asked Master, but the old man refused to reveal it, and gradually forgot about it.
Now that I think about it, I still feel suspicious, and the emaciated old man in front of him obviously knows the master, otherwise his reaction would not be so big.
"I wonder if the old gentleman and my master are old friends?" Feng Jin asked.
The old man coughed twice, as if he was recalling something, and said: "How dare I climb the seniors, Mu Xin Dao Chang helped us a lot back then, his name can be described as well-known in Sandaoxing Village, I didn't expect that after a few years, his heirs actually came here, is it really providence?" ”
Looking at the old man's excited expression, Feng Jin didn't know what to say for a while. Master rarely tells outsiders about his past, even these disciples rarely reveal it, Feng Jin has always thought that Master is just an ordinary old man, who would have thought that he is so famous here!
"Well, that's right, my master never told me about his youth, and I don't know anything about why he came here back then...... I didn't really understand what you just said......
"Well, there are some things I originally wanted to bring into the coffin, but I didn't expect you to come here today, it seems that everything is providential." The old man said excitedly.
Feng Jin and Luo Hua's eyes widened, quietly waiting for him to continue to speak.
"My name is Li Yi, I didn't live in this Sandaoxing Village before, my parents were farmers near here, at that time the war swept our village, my parents took the young me to escape, there were interceptions before and after the pursuers, I didn't know where to run in a hurry, and I didn't know where to run in a panic, and my parents were stunned at that time, they worked on this land for decades, and never heard of Sandaoxing Village, let alone knew that there was such a peaceful village in the mountains."
"Thinking that there was a lot of war outside, it was very peaceful here, and my parents made a home here, and they never went out again until the end of their lives. At that time, there was a very strange person in the village, who squatted under other people's roofs every day, looking like he had nothing to do, but I found that everyone in the village was respectful to him, and someone gave him food every day, and I was curious about this mysterious man since I was a child. However, after observing him for many days, I did not see his true face, and at that time he was young and timid, and once he deliberately fell in front of him while he was resting against the corner, and finally saw his face clearly the moment he fell to the ground......"
