Chapter 19 Yellowed Photographs
"Old acquaintance?" Fang Lin was shocked in his heart, thinking to himself where did he get an old acquaintance in this thief's den.
However, He Da didn't pay any attention to Fang Lin anymore and walked forward by himself.
Although Fang Lin was a little reluctant, he looked at the black demon elephant behind him who was staring at him and was still dripping with saliva, so he could only tighten his mind and quickly follow.
Following the silent He Da, he slowly walked forward, and Fang Lin had the opportunity to take a good look at the surrounding environment.
The location of the cellar is like a training ground, about two or three hundred square meters, and huge rocks can be seen everywhere, but it can be seen from some pits on the ground that these boulders are often lifted and thrown, and this should be the place where the vendettasmen here practice when they have nothing to do.
Behind the refining ground is an endless ruin, full of the hideous faces of reinforced concrete, but they are dilapidated, and many high-rise buildings are only half left and still stand alone in them, not at all showing the prosperity of the past, but revealing endless sadness and nostalgia.
This should have been a big city before the apocalypse, and I don't know how the Black Elephant could have appeared in such a place.
Fang Lin shook his head and continued to follow He Da in the opposite direction of the ruins.
Gradually, Fang Lin heard the faint sound of running water, coupled with the gradually widening vision in front of him, Fang Lin slowly confirmed his conjecture.
This is clearly a dock, a deserted dock!
Along the way, Fang Lin saw many plainly dressed people passing by, and they all looked at Fang Lin in surprise, but they smiled and greeted He Da very respectfully, it seemed that He Da had a high status here.
What made Fang Lin even more stunned was that he actually saw several children running around, followed by many young fierce beasts, and even a cub black demon elephant swayed and ran after the children, although it was a juvenile, it also had the strength of a sixth- or seventh-level fierce beast!
At this moment, the cute appearance of staggering behind the children honestly, where is the domineering posture of a high-level fierce beast?
Coupled with the children's figures, which were in stark contrast to the fierce beasts, Fang Lin was really worried that they would be trampled by the fierce beasts if they didn't pay attention!
He Da seemed to feel Fang Lin's suspicion, and turned around and asked:
"What do you think?"
"Huh?" Fang Lin was a little stunned by the question, scratched his head, and replied, "That's good!"
He Da chuckled, didn't say much, and continued to walk forward.
There were many simple wooden houses and some adobe houses in front of me, and there were more people, and if you counted them, I am afraid that there were no less than hundreds, of different ages, old and young, men and women, and even some seemingly weak women still holding babies lying in swaddling clothes in their hands!
From time to time, there were some laughter and laughter in the busyness, revealing all kinds of life in the plain, it was simply the appearance of the paradise in Fang Lin's heart!
"This?" Fang Lin was a little stunned, and looked at He Da in surprise.
He Da turned around, and there was a sense of vicissitudes in his eyes that surprised Fang Lin a little.
"Oh, this is my home!"
Fang Lin pursed his lips, this is very different from the thief's den in his mind, this contrast is really too big, okay!
This harmonious living state like a small village actually made Fang Lin yearn for it.
He Da took Fang Lin and walked straight to the village, looking at Fang Lin with a lot of suspicious eyes mixed with a large number of respectful greetings, but more curious, without the slightest malice.
Among them, there were several teenage girls who were shyly hiding behind the adults and secretly looking at Fang Lin, which made Fang Lin a little embarrassed.
He Da did not introduce Fang Lin to everyone, but took Fang Lin into the most conspicuous house in the village!
After Fang Lin also walked in, He Da turned around and closed the door, immediately cutting off the noise outside the house, leaving only one window to illuminate the room a little darkly with a faint light.
This house is not big, but more than 20 square meters, and there is only one hall.
There is nothing in the room except for a photo frame and two incense burners, one on the left and one on the right!
However, when Fang Lin entered the house, he saw that there were still three people standing in the room at this moment.
Isn't it the sunspot, Da Fei and Sun Hui.
Kuroko stood by the wall with an indifferent expression, not caring about Fang Lin's arrival at all.
There was a faint sneer on the corner of Sun Hui's mouth, and he grinned at Fang Lin.
As for Da Fei, his eyes stared at Fang Lin with a piercing gaze, and his slightly trembling lips showed that his heart was extremely turbulent, but with his bandaged head, it was a little funny, especially the little blood stained in his right ear, which made his whole face extremely uncoordinated.
Fang Lin didn't pay attention to these gazes, but stared at the photo frame that was placed upright in the room, and it was actually a little familiar.
"Ahem!" He Da coughed lightly, pulling Fang Lin's thoughts back, and looked at Fang Lin indifferently.
"Do you recognize him?" He Da asked Fang Lin, pointing to the black and white statue.
The photo shows a man with a grim chuckle, a neat and thin face but a somewhat sharp demeanor, and he looks about thirty years old.
"I shouldn't know it, but ......" Fang Lin was sure that he didn't know the person in the photo, but the feeling of familiarity lingered.
He looked at He Da suspiciously, he didn't know what he meant, but Fang Lin looked at He Da after looking at the photo, and the appearance of the two slowly coincided!
If you don't look at He Da's thick beard, He Da's facial features are very similar to the man in the photo, Fang Lin's eyes widened, and he pointed at He Da with some surprise.
"You... You... He... You guys?" Fang Lin stammered a little and looked at He Da, but He Da still looked at Fang Lin indifferently, but there was some acquiescence in his eyes.
"Is he your son?" Fang Lin finally held back a complete sentence.
“......”
“......”
"Uh..."
Everyone was speechless, especially He Da, he thought that Fang Lin recognized it, how could he have thought that Fang Lin's brain was quite surprised, and he actually said this.
"Little cub, what nonsense, that's Boss He's brother, my own brother!" Kuroko yelled with some annoyance.
"Huh?" Fang Lin's mouth was wide open, this misunderstanding was a little deep, and he hurriedly smiled at He Da with some embarrassment.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I don't know, you two really look alike, but this photo is so young, I can't think of it for a while. ”
Also, how can He Da's face be thirty-seven or eighteen now, how could he have thought that the young man in the photo is his brother.
"This is my own brother, He Jian, who has passed away for more than ten years. He Da said angrily.
"Oh, I see. ”
"Don't you remember him?" He Da asked Fang Lin with a slight squint.
"I ...... I don't know him. Fang Lin thought about it carefully, but still couldn't find any clues about this person in his mind.
"What about me, don't look at the beard, do you remember?" He Da covered his thick beard with his hand, almost revealing only a pair of eyes outside.
Fang Lin pouted a little speechlessly: "Big brother, if you don't look at the beard, you will have no face!"
"Uh......" He Da was stunned for a moment and shook his head a little stupidly, but the next words shocked Fang Lin.
"When you were a child, my brother took me to Ningding Mountain, and I teased you at your house!"
Fang Lin was a little dumbfounded, he was really an old acquaintance, but he still didn't believe it, he didn't have the slightest impression, and he moved away from Ningding Mountain with his grandfather when he was about five years old.
"When was I young?"
He Da showed a thoughtful expression, and then said conclusively:
"Fourteen years ago, yes, in 2186!"
"......" Fang Lin was really choked by He Da's words, fourteen years ago, in 2186, he was only two years old at that time, how could he remember them.
"I'm sorry, I don't remember. Fang Lin didn't want to argue with He Da about his childhood memory, so he replied lightly.
He Da was not annoyed, but nodded with some disappointment, and reached out and took out another yellowed photo from his arms.
"What about them, do you remember?"
Fang Lin cautiously took the photo that seemed to be about to be torn at any time, and focused his gaze.
But looking at it, the hairs around Fang Lin's body stood up, and his scalp was a little numb.
In the photo, two dirty thirteen or fourteen-year-old boys are close to a middle-aged woman, smiling brightly.
