Chapter 749: White Lies
Tang Sa said that he was playing, and the old crocodile stared at her and Xiao Yuan with sharp eyes, and said:
"What you said is very simple, but I can hear it, it's full of stories, and you don't want to look back on the past, and I can only answer part of your messy questions, in fact, I'm a teacher here, and I don't know much."
"There's one talk, there's two talk, old crocodile, why did you become Rory?" Xiao Yuan said according to the old crocodile's way of speaking.
"Oh, haha, yes, it's me who is wrong, okay, I'll tell you what I know." The old crocodile was slightly stunned, probably very satisfied with Xiao Yuan's way of speaking, and then laughed, and said with a smile, "What kind of technology and other things you asked The old crocodile doesn't understand, and can't answer you, and why did you say why the base found you and rescued you when you were on the verge of being at the top, I don't know, but what I do know is that the base rescued a lot of people who are on the verge of despair, but these people are all geniuses, Xiaopang and Brown's old stubbornness belong to this category, of course, the two of you also belong to this category." ”
"I'm not a genius, Xiao Yuan is a genius." Tang Sa took over and said.
"At least one of the two of you must have something extraordinary, such as my waste son, who came with me, then it may be Xiao Yuan's genius, and you are stained with his light." The old crocodile said.
"Sister Sa is also very powerful." Xiao Yuan said with a smile.
"It's not enough to be powerful, there are so many powerful people in this world, are they all here? So, only geniuses, geeks and wizards are accepted here, and of course, some of these people's relatives and friends will also be accepted, you know, geniuses and weirdos and the like, life skills are often very poor. The old crocodile said, waving his hand.
"It seems that I am classified as a family member, this is the best, otherwise Xiao Yuan will be brought here alone, and I will not die in a hurry." Tang Sa didn't feel angry because the old crocodile was ruthless to her, but said happily.
"Old crocodile, what is your talent?" Xiao Yuan asked curiously.
"My talent is fighting, haha......" said the old crocodile, laughing as he spoke.
The old crocodile was obviously reluctant to expand on this topic, and his words were relaxed, but Xiao Yuan was in his heart, combined with the words of the old crocodile before, he could fight until he was picked up by the base, and the meaning was already obvious.
"Old crocodile, where is the geographical location of this base?" Xiao Yuan asked again.
"I don't know." The old crocodile said.
"You don't know? So how did you get here? Xiao Yuan asked in surprise.
"I was rescued after being framed in a desperate situation in the jungles of South America, when I was also in a coma, and when I woke up, I was here, and some parts of my body were broken and replaced with machines." The old crocodile shrugged and said, reaching out and tapping on his leg, making a metallic sound.
"Your leg is a prosthetic?" Xiao Yuan was taken aback and hurriedly asked.
"yes, what's so strange about this, I was trying to save that little crocodile cub, I had my legs blown off, and it's normal to replace them with prosthetic limbs." The old crocodile said.
"You don't understand what I mean, I mean, your leg is a prosthetic, but it looks like a normal person, or even stronger than a normal person." Xiao Yuan saw that the old crocodile thought he was suspicious of his prosthetic leg, and quickly explained the reason why he was surprised.
"This may be the mysterious technology that Tang Sa said just now, whatever, if I hadn't mentioned it today, I would have forgotten that these two legs are fake, in fact, they are no different from the real thing, and they are even better than the real thing." The old crocodile said.
"Old crocodile, have you ever seen that strange flying saucer-like flying machine in the base?" Tang Sa asked.
"I've heard of it, but I haven't seen it." The old crocodile said.
"So you haven't seen it either, I thought you did." Tang Sa was a little disappointed with the old crocodile's reply.
"There are too many things in this base that are not outside, just take out one, it can be shocking, fortunately, people here generally can't get out when they come in, but there is nothing to worry about, my old man is half-cut into the ground, it's just that you two are young, it's a bit of a pity." The old crocodile said again.
The old crocodile's words surprised Xiao Yuan again, but after thinking about it, what the old crocodile said was not difficult to understand, he didn't know anything else, the research on the human brain here alone has exceeded the outside world too much, if the people here can come and go casually, how can the outside world have no information about these technologies.
"Isn't it feeling lost?" The old crocodile was very disappointed when he saw Xiao Yuan and Tang Sa say that he couldn't get out here, so he asked with a smile.
"Sort of." Xiao Yuan said.
"When I came here and knew that I couldn't go out, I also became very manic, and after a long time, I got used to it, in fact, there is nothing bad here, there are outside, there are all here, eat and drink without worry, you can work if you want to work, you can have fun if you want to play, isn't this what people pursue in their lives?" The old crocodile said.
"Your old man can see it, but I don't have a high level of thinking like yours, I feel like a cage here, if I can get out, I will definitely find a way to get out of here." Xiao Yuan said that in his opinion, the words of the old crocodile were not necessarily his sincere words, and it was very likely that he had been here for a long time, and he had a kind of self-mental anesthesia after going out to despair.
"It's a good thing that young people are a little sharp." The old crocodile smiled slightly, said this, and then said, "Okay, I have answered your question, and I will also tell you about what I am looking for you." ”
"Please." Xiao Yuan said.
"How is my brother doing, can you tell me about it?" The old crocodile asked.
"He's fine, it's definitely okay to live a long life." Xiao Yuan said.
"What about my granddaughter Ning'er, according to the time, she should be a teenager by now, is she like a flower?" The old crocodile asked again.
"Old crocodile, how many years have you been here?" Xiao Yuan was surprised by the long time that the old crocodile had been at the base when he heard that the old crocodile didn't know about Ning Lan, so he asked.
"It's been too long, I've forgotten, I went to South America when Ning Lan was three years old, and something happened there two years later, and I came here after that, and I never went out again, I don't care about anyone else, I just miss my granddaughter Ning'er, tell me, how is she now, is she very beautiful, very cute, do you have a boyfriend......" The old crocodile reminisced, but did not say the specific time, but when the words came to Ning Lan, her eyes were shining, and a lot of questions were constantly raised.
Xiao Yuan saw the old crocodile mention Ning Lan's performance, and thought of Ning Lan's regrettable early death, he couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion in his heart, thinking that it would be too cruel to tell the old crocodile the truth at this moment, suddenly, he felt Tang Sa tugging at his clothes, turned his head to look at her, and found that she was looking at himself a few times, and shook her head gently, so he understood and knew what to say to the old crocodile.
"How is Ning'er now, Xiao Yuan, you are my brother's disciple, you must be very familiar with her." The old crocodile was immersed in his thoughts of Ning Lan, and he didn't notice the small movements between Xiao Yuan and Tang Sa at all, and after a lot of questions were asked, he asked again.
"Ning Lan, she's fine." Xiao Yuan said with a smile on his face.
A white lie is sometimes a form of mercy.
