Chapter 469: It's been a long time ago

I subconsciously glanced at Situ Cao, and then nodded.

Then, under Situ Shanping's orders, Situ Cao moved all the things on the bed aside, revealing the bare bed board, and then she walked to a stool next to her, and then twisted it clockwise three times.

After only a few clicks of machinery, a square dark passage entrance with a length and width of about one meter appeared in the middle of the bed board.

Looking inside from the entrance, you can see a stone staircase that extends downward.

Situ Cao raised his hand to turn on the light of the survival bracelet, and was the first to jump down.

"I'm familiar with this place, so I'll lead the way! You guys come down with me and help me take care of my grandfather. ”

"Good!" I answered, and walked inside.

Behind me were Situ Shanping, Zhang Qiang, Zhao Qiqi, Du Deming, and Wang Yi, who followed us in turn.

Of course, everyone consciously turned on the light on the bracelet.

After about ten seconds of walking down, we finally entered the basement.

Contrary to what you might think, it's not pitch black.

On the other hand, on the four walls of the basement, a small lantern appears at intervals, and a blue-white light is constantly emitted from it, and with these lights, we can see the environment in the basement.

Everyone turned off the lights of the bracelets at the same time.

"This, these are ......" I looked at Situ Cao a little strangely.

She smiled faintly at me and explained, "These lanterns contain bugs that are somewhat similar to fireflies, and they will automatically go dormant in the dark, and the bugs will emit this kind of light when they enter the dormant state. Usually, you just need to put the nutrient solution in the lantern at regular intervals to keep them alive. In a sense, they're much better than electric lights or something. ”

"That's good, it's quite eco-friendly!" Zhang Qiang touched his chin and looked at the surrounding environment.

In the basement, there are wooden bookcases everywhere, on which are stored some yellowed books in threads, which seem to be classics of traditional Chinese medicine.

Walking further in, rows of wooden medicine cabinets appeared in front of me, and I heard Situ Cao say that what was placed on it were some precious medicinal materials that liked yin.

Walk out of the basement at the beginning, turn right, and walk for about ten meters, passing several rooms along the way.

Eventually, we finally stopped at a black-painted gate.

Everyone automatically got out of the way, and Situ Shanping walked to the front like this.

Take out another brass key.

Click.

The door opened.

"Come in, I'll tell you everything." The old man let out a barely audible sigh as he said this.

A few seconds later, the six of us plus Situ Shanping had already entered the last basement of Situ's house.

When we saw the scene inside, we couldn't help but open our mouths wide.

Shock!!

It's so shocking!!

In this room, which is about a hundred square meters, in addition to the clay pots full of countless spaces on the wall, there are also eight tables placed side by side in the middle, which are piled up with all kinds of instruments that we can't understand, which seem to be used to develop Gu poison and study Gu arts.

However, these are not the things that shock us the most.

What surprised me the most was that the curved wall on the opposite side was made of glass-like material, and it was filled with the same glowing insects as in the lantern just now.

The entire wall glows brightly, illuminating the entire room.

I can't help but sigh, it must cost a lot of money to make a basement like this, right?

In addition, a few of us have been walking underground for so long, could it be said that this area is all the land of the Situ family?

I asked the doubts in my heart.

Situ Shanping glanced at me, then nodded with a smile: "That's right." In fact, when the ancestral house of the Situ family was at the beginning, there was no basement, it was built later. Fortunately, in this area, it is all our family's land, so no one has found out. Well, let's get down to business! I guess you have a lot of questions for me, boy, right? ”

When the others heard this, they turned their heads to look at me in surprise.

"Gao Wei, what did you kid find? Why don't you tell us all the time? Zhang Qiang patted me on the shoulder and said.

"Yes, Gao Wei, what's the matter, I'm also a little curious." Du Deming also looked at me.

The corners of Zhao Qiqi's mouth raised a chuckle, she glanced at me, then at Situ Cao, and then said, "I guess, this matter must have something to do with Sister Situ, right?" That's why you don't know how to open your mouth. ”

"Huh?" Situ Cao turned his head to look at me at this time: "Is this really the case?" What the hell is going on? ”

I looked at Situ Shanping with some confusion, and then at Situ Cao, and finally made up my mind.

Clenched my fists hard, I exhaled a breath and stared at Situ Shanping's face fixedly: "Old man, I have a saying, don't vomit and be unhappy!" I've touched your skin many times before, but I've noticed that your body has no temperature and you don't have a pulse. How can a normal person be alive without body temperature and without a pulse? You, ...... you"

"Hahaha......" Situ Shanping suddenly laughed without warning, and the folds on his face deepened a lot with his smile, and after a while, he finally stopped laughing, and the old man stared at my face and said, "Finally, someone still found out." Just now I thought that you should have discovered this secret, but I was worried that I had misunderstood, so it was difficult to break it. Now that you've got that to it, all right! I'll tell you why I'm the way I am. ”

Situ Shanping said, turning his head to look at Situ Cao, whose expression had frozen, he walked over and gently touched her head: "Child, don't worry, I'm not okay?" While the topic that follows may be a little difficult for you to accept, everything I say is true, and I hope you will believe it. ”

"Sit down, let's sit and talk!" Situ Shanping pointed to the stools next to the tables and said.

After about ten seconds, Situ Shanping finally talked about his story.

"Well, actually, I died a long time ago, many years ago. No, to be precise, it was Situ Shanping, who died many years ago. I, in fact, am an ancestor of your Situ family, who has been painted in the portrait for a long time, and of course I only discovered this later. But I don't know exactly what happened. Anyway, I woke up one day many years ago, and when I came back to my senses, I found that I had lost all my memories, and what was even stranger was that I found that I was a little different from ordinary people. My body has no temperature, and my pulse has long since stopped......"
