Luo Sheng snuffed out the cigarette butt in his hand, reluctantly threw it into the stream in front of him, and waited for it to fly up and down in the gurgling water, down the stream, and finally swallowed by a silverfish in his stomach, before he shifted his gaze back, looked at Xu Qiang and the clothes he was wearing, and then thought about the clothes in the backpack, Luo Sheng suddenly had a spirit, and asked eagerly:

"Wouldn't it be that the two of us need to prepare more animal skins to protect against the cold, and how many beasts will we have to catch? But it's still early then, and the most important thing for us now is to find a place to stay. ”

As soon as Luo Sheng finished saying this, there was a plop, and a large splash suddenly appeared on the surface of the lake under the hillside, as if someone had thrown a big stone into the lake, or it seemed that a big fish had flipped its tail from the bottom of the water and slapped the sound of the splash, such a big movement suddenly attracted the attention of Xu Qiang and the others.

Just as the eyes of the two were wandering back and forth on the surface of the lake, a beam of light lit up from a distance, and it was difficult not to attract attention in the gradually dimming skylight. The light flashed and flashed, as if greeting people, making people want to go over and find out. Xu Qiang felt a touch of weirdness and doubt in his heart, looked at Luo Sheng, and asked:

"Do you feel it?"

"Well, I feel it, as if something is calling us."

"It seems that we both have the same idea, let's go, fatty, let's go over and have a look before it gets dark."

A bright light pierced through the thick smoke from the ancient forest fire, shooting straight into the depths of the wilderness. The empty wilderness ravines are crisscrossed, but in front of the pickup truck with good off-road performance, it is like flat ground, and the vehicle is moving quickly towards the goal, stirring up the black ash in the sky, startling countless birds and rabbits. Groups of nervous herbivores scattered and fled, and the lone predators panicked and jumped all the way.

The goal was obvious, and after half an hour, they successfully reached the foot of the mountain that emitted bright lights, looking at the slightly rugged mountain road, considering that the surrounding situation was unknown, and fearing danger, the two decided to drive up. Xu Qiang stepped on the accelerator to the end and drove the pickup truck upward, soon reaching the bright spot.

The light looked very bright from a distance, but it was not too dazzling when it was close, it looked soft, and the light illuminated the surroundings, exposing a cave in front of the two of them, Xu Qiang took the car flashlight, held the knife in his hand, and walked to the cave with the fat man.

The entrance to the cave was dry, there were no footprints of large beasts, and further inside, the light dimmed, and there were no traces of manificiality on the four walls, as if they were naturally formed. Xu Qiang was very cautious, slowly groping inward, and after turning a corner, the cave suddenly became clear, and a karst cave with a height of five or six meters and a radius of about 200 square meters was presented in front of the two.

"Wow, that's beautiful." Luo Sheng, who was walking behind, stretched out his head from behind Xu Qiang, and was stunned by the scene in the cave for a while, and couldn't help but say it.

The cave is full of strange stalagmites and stalactites, like mushrooms after the rain, scattered and numerous, a thousand postures, it is more varied, wonderful, amazing.

And these stalagmites and stalactites in the center of the cave under the reflection of a luminous body, look beautiful, brilliant, from time to time there are colorful lights from the top of the cave flashing, the reflected light round by round, from one end of the cave to the other, beautiful.

Luo Sheng was about to speak, but saw Xu Qiang's gaze fall on the luminous body in the center of the cave.

It was a stone sculpture formed by stone stalactites, and the outline was a human figure, the shape was realistic, exuding a hazy light, the light was soft but the face could not be seen clearly, as if a humanoid lantern was equipped with a bulb inside, crystal clear.

"Brother Qiang, Brother Qiang, what's wrong with you?"

At this time, Xu Qiang's entire mind was cast on the stone stalactite, his eyes did not blink, and he ignored Luo Sheng's call. And Luo Sheng also turned his gaze to the glowing stone stalactite again, and was stunned for a moment, the light emitted by the humanoid stone stalactite gradually dimmed, no longer hazy, making people unreal, and gradually revealing their true face.

"Ah, the old gentleman preaches like ?!" Luo Sheng trembled in shock, and the woodcutter in his hand fell to the ground.

"Yes, it's the statue of the old gentleman preaching."

When the stone statue gradually became dim, Xu Qiang's mind also recovered, and he took over the conversation after hearing Luo Sheng's exclamation.

Looking at the stone stalactite again, it looked like a bust of an old man holding a wooden staff, exactly the same as the stone statue they saw in the Laojun Cave, there was no difference, only the stalagmites and stone pillars around it, as well as the stone table in front of the stone statue, and a stone bed on the side.

Luo Sheng still didn't believe it, and looked around the stone statue over and over again, and after confirming it again and again, he had to believe it, and he couldn't stop being amazed in place.

"Don't look at it, fat man, it seems that there is a providence in the dark, we can come to this world, not for nothing, let's kowtow to Lao Jun and his old man, thank Lao Jun for his life-saving grace and reconstruction."

After that, Xu Qiang pulled Luo Sheng and bowed his head together, but the two people in the kneeling worship didn't see that the light on the statue of Laojun suddenly lit up, and when the two got up, they returned to normal.

At this moment, the light in the cave had dimmed, Xu Qiang and the two took flashlights and turned around the cave, and they found nothing, so they came to the cave again.

It's already dark. It was dark and windy, but not strong, and it was a little cool on people. Occasionally, the rolling clouds can cast a piece of starlight, which is fleeting. The smoke from the wildfires obscured the starry sky, and it was unknown when it would clear.

In the distance, the howls of beasts could be heard, the greetings of wolves, the angry roars of unknown beasts, and the sounds of beasts fighting in the distance, and the wind. But for the two brothers who crossed over, this was not at all for them to think about now, and now all they cared about was how to spend the night.

"Fatty, there are two pieces of news for you, one good and one bad, which one do you want to hear first?" Seeing Luo Sheng coming from behind a rock, tying his belt as he walked, Xu Qiang couldn't help but want to tease the fat man.

"Good news!" Luo Sheng, who had fastened his belt, didn't think about it, and replied directly.

"The good news is that we are still on Earth and close to the Yellow River. You can still enjoy the warm sun bath in the future. ”

"And what about the bad news?"

"The bad news is that we're running out of paper, and you're going to be using leaves or dirt to solve your poop problems, or bamboo or wood chips. Uh, hey, hey, haha! ”

Xu Qiang finished this sentence seriously, but the painful expression on his face and the flushed face showed how hard he was holding back at the moment, and finally couldn't help laughing.
