Chapter 417: Contained
Until one day, a man in a black robe came to him, saying that he had taken a fancy to his rare skills and had a big business to cooperate with. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info After understanding, it is to steal children, sell them to buyers from other places, and beg as beggars after mutilating their bodies.
After Old Man She knew the truth, he disagreed and thought of going home. At that time, one of Old Man She's favorite objects was the daughter of a tofu business owner, and this woman was also interested in Old Man She. Somehow, the man knew about this and actually kidnapped Old Man She's object to blackmail him.
At that time, Old Man She also asked why so many people in the world had to be embarrassed by him. Unexpectedly, the man replied, because he was from Shezhen, and he might know a place. When Old Man She asked where it was, the other party said that it was a cave.
Coincidentally, Old Man She did find a cave on the hill when he was a child, and he often went to play. There are no treasures or strange places in it, just an old cave. Old man She thought to himself, it doesn't matter if I tell you, I can get my lover back anyway. Therefore, Old Man She told the man truthfully, and this person did not repent and released Old Man She's object.
After the two were safe, they decided to return to Shezhen and live their own lives. Who knows, that person actually found the cave that Old Man She said, and entrenched it for many years, and never left.
Also, there are not a few people in the cave, there are dozens of people. At the same time, they also found Old Man She again and asked Old Man She to help them abduct and sell children. It was useless for the old man to plead bitterly, these people had already found his hometown, and they couldn't hide anymore, so they finally walked with them.
Although they were together, Old Man She didn't know much about things. He can't take the initiative to contact them, only they can contact Old Man She, so what they are doing, Old Man She doesn't know.
Everyone is curious, and Old Man She also has it, so he is secretly observing. After several years of contact, Old Man She pondered one thing, that is, the original intention of these people was not to abduct and sell children, but also to have deeper intentions. As for what, I don't know. Also, they are secretive, going back and forth between Shezhen and the hill at night, and they seem to be secretly arranging something.
Through Old Man She's current narration, Zhang Mengqi roughly knew that they were the ones who arranged the formation around She Town.
"Hey! It's all my fault! After talking for a while, Old Man She felt sorry for himself again.
"You are called luring wolves into the house, you take the blame, you deserve it!" Zhang Mengqi is telling the truth, Old Man She's current situation is caused by himself, and he can't complain about others.
"I deserve it, I deserve it!" Old man She said, slapping himself a few times.
"Okay, it's over, it's too late to regret it, you said they didn't mean to abduct and sell children, what are they going to do?" Zhang Mengqi picked up the key questions, these are the keys to unlocking the secret.
"It's strange that they were very disappointed when they found some children, which should have been a happy thing, after all, there is income from trading, but they all sold them one by one after testing."
"Testing? How to test? ā
"They had a leader, and they were all called Lord, and I have not seen his countenance, but he was covered with a black robe and a cloak over his face. He had a black stone the size of an egg, and he used this stone to test his children. ā
"Tell me, how the hell is it tested?"
"It is to put a black egg stone on the child's forehead to see if the stone reacts." Old man She finally said the test effect of the black egg stone. Although I said it, I didn't understand what was special about it.
The two fell into silence, Old Man She was thinking about the life and death parting between him, his wife and son, and Zhang Mengqi was thinking about the slightest connection in these things.
"How old are you?" Zhang Mengqi asked coldly.
It's not that I deliberately waited for this time to ask this question, but I have too many questions in my mind, and I can only start asking it fundamentally, and this question is just the beginning.
not only doubted Old Man She's identity, but also doubted his age. Although Old Man She has an old face and a rickety figure, his actions and words reveal his suspicions. Makeup and disguise can temporarily hide a person's age, and it is obvious that Old Man She does not belong to either of the two.
"How old am I? Hehe! When Old Man She heard the question, he smiled bitterly, containing too much helplessness and suffering.
"yes, how old are you?" Zhang Mengqi asked repeatedly.
"If you don't ask, I'll forget how old I am, hey!" Old man She looked at the sky with his eyes and let out a long sigh. It seems that the question is right, there is really a problem with Old Man She's age.
"I should be thirty years old this year." Old man She continued.
"Thirty? Then you? Although Zhang Mengqi was prepared, she was still very shocked. The old man in front of him was only thirty years old, how could he become so old? And his wife, who also looks like an old lady, must have had an accident.
"You're weird, aren't you? I'll tell you why. Old man She didn't seem to care about his age anymore, and he was still immersed in the grief of his wife's death.
Zhang Mengqi looked at the collapsed cave and remembered the murals in the cave. Since Old Man She was the first to discover the cave, he should know about the murals. There is also the secret mark on the wall of Old Man She's house, what is the purpose?
"When you first discovered the cave, were there any murals in the cave?" Zhang Mengqi asked.
"Yes, the mural appears when the oil lamp is lit, and the mural disappears when the oil lamp is extinguished, which is amazing." Old Man She's words verified the fact that the mural existed in the first place, and it was not the group of people who appeared after they came in, and it seems that they have been looking for this cave all along. In this way, the frescoes were destroyed by hand and foot when they left.
"And what's the secret mark on the ribbon on the north wall of your house?" Zhang Mengqi asked.
"It's a small formation, used to spy on me. When you came to town, I brought you home to take your place as my son. But then I still didn't have the patience to let you go. I didn't know that when you came back several times, they found out about you, so I had to use a trick to lure you out of town and wait for you to get out. In fact, I also have selfish intentions, that is, I can let you go out safely to report the crime and save our family from the sea of suffering. "Old man She, oh, it's not an old man, it's still old She, Lao She has been in contact with it a few times, no wonder he took it in and let him leave, it seems that his conscience is not completely extinguished.
