Chapter Seventy-Seven

Wu Laogou's sarcastic words still echoed in his mind.

"I'm..."

There has always been a nameless anger in my heart pressing on my chest, I can't help but curse angrily, looking at the rickety back in front of me, but helpless.

Wu Laogou squatted in the corner, took out a cigarette pouch and a match from his coat and lit it quietly, and then sighed suddenly.

The worn-out dry tobacco pouch was still stained with blood, and with a burst of smoke, the whole secret room seemed to be a fairyland of "clouds and mist".

It's just that the smell of this old sweat smoke is really a bit pungent and spicy.

I endured the sharp pain in my legs, and dragged my steps to his side, and the wound that I had just tried to crouch down but had never wanted to tear almost made me feel painful.

"Sss

I grinned in pain and sat on the ground.

His right leg was instantly stained red with blood, emitting a pungent and unpleasant smell.

I pulled open my trouser leg a little bit and looked at the wound that was almost festering inside, and I couldn't help but gasp.

In the next second, Wu Laogou's words were clearly reflected in my ears, and I almost didn't get angry.

"Your leg is a waste, cut it off."

I was so angry that I almost didn't stand up and give him a mouthful.

But when he thought that he was not his opponent, and that I was now weak, he immediately stopped this stupid thought.

"Fart, how to get out alive with a truncated leg".

I twisted my head to the side and said stubbornly, but I accidentally noticed that the half-cut tree in front of me was not yet dead.

The roots rooted in the soil are touched from time to time, like giant earthworms in the soil of southern spring.

"By the way, Lao Wu, when you just confronted the giant python, you took it out of your arms and looked like ***, what kind of thing."

I looked at the firelight in the secret room in front of me, and I couldn't help but think of the scene of the fight.

What he threw at the time was like a gasoline-filled ***, but I don't believe he would have put that stuff in his pocket all the time.

If you accidentally fall a little spark while smoking, the consequences can be imagined.

"It's called Uncle Wu".

Suddenly, he reached out and flicked it my head, and I couldn't help but let out an "oops" in such a hard pain.

"Seeing that you didn't even have a lot of fetal hair in your later life, you came to join the army, I'm afraid that if your parents died early, you will be alone."

I just wanted to scream back, but I couldn't open my mouth when the words came to my mouth.

Wu Laogou is right, for so many years, that deep courtyard has been my home, and the word "parents" has long been hazy.

I only remember that my adoptive father gave me a name, called "Sicheng", and then my adoptive father died, and I never mentioned it to others again.

Wu Laogou saw that my face was a little depressed, and instantly guessed that what he said might be the same, he and I glanced at each other, and then lowered our heads and fell silent.

The stump of the yellow, almost half-destroyed tree in front of him, stretched out many green shoots in the dark, frantically digging into the ground to absorb nutrients.

As if I was about to come back to life again, I chuckled in my heart.

I just wanted to snatch the dagger in Wu Laogou's hand and cut it to the roots, but I heard a hoarse voice echoing in my ears behind me.

"It's not easy to be ashamed of a tree for a hundred years, and it's extremely rare to grow even in a tomb."

"Just spare its life and leave it to the next person who is destined to come here."

I was still holding the dagger, and I really couldn't understand why Wu Laogou would say that, after all, according to his character in ordinary times, he must "repay him".

Even the mosquitoes that sucked blood on him had to be thrown into his mouth and chewed back.

Suddenly, I heard a sigh from Wu Laogou.

"Housheng, do you know why I didn't kill you all the way?"

His voice was already hoarse, and with the strange atmosphere in front of me, it instantly sent chills down my spine.

"Are you finally ready to do it to me?"

I muttered to myself, and then secretly clenched my hands behind my back into fists, ready to strike first and strike desperately at any moment.

After all, my left leg could barely move, and I would only have a chance to survive when he was unprepared to make a move on me.

"Housheng, you don't have to be afraid."

"My old dog Wu has done all the bad things of digging graves and digging graves all his life, and he has become a dead child, this may really be God's retribution for me."

His tone was sad, his rickety figure was like an old man with a flower armor hanging at dusk, and even the violent disgust on his body disappeared without a trace.

"You..., if you don't mind, be my godson."

"Poof."

Lao Yan, who was sitting across from me, almost didn't squirt the hot water out of his mouth.

In the café in front of me, there were already very few customers.

I never thought that a person like him, who always kept a straight face all day long, was meticulous and very rigorous, would have such a funny gaffe.

I held back a hint of surprise and a smile in my heart and sat down at the tea table.

The palm of his hand reached into his arms little by little, took out the half box of cigarettes, put it to his mouth, took out the lighter, lit the fire, and took a big puff viciously.

"Ahem... Burst. ”

The intense, magical smoke was inhaled into my throat and caused discomfort in my throat.

For a moment, I couldn't help but think back to what the doctor told me when I was in the hospital.

It's just that tobacco has gradually become a part of my body, and if I want to quit, I have to wait until the next life.

"Then then, did you agree?"

Lao Yan's gaze gradually became deeper, and this feeling was like interrogating a prisoner, which made me very uncomfortable.

I don't know if this is due to his professional problems, but I remember that we have both suffered together.

Then he didn't get angry, and quietly spared him this time.

I pretended not to hear, and the cigarette between my fingers flicked slightly, shaking the ash off.

Turning his head, he looked at the busy scene outside the window and was stunned for more than ten seconds, and after a short while.

Then he turned his head and smiled awkwardly at him.

"Can I refuse to answer this question?"

He seemed to have the answer in my eyes.

But recognizing an old man who is only more than twelve years older than me as a godfather is something I can't say anyway, let alone a tomb robber.

"And then, how did you escape?"

Lao Yan saw that I was a little distracted, so he immediately reminded me, and continued to tell the story.

I saw him with some interest, as if he had been completely attracted to my story, and there was an indescribable smell in my heart.

It's as if after so many years, I have suffered grievances and sufferings, and I suddenly found someone to talk to.

But at this moment, he is no longer the ignorant Leng Touqing of the year, if he tells his complete experience, I am afraid that in this café, three days and three nights will not be clear.

I ignored his words, closed my eyes, and then opened them suddenly.

A terrifying and strange aura suddenly burst out of his eyes.

This aura honed in the pit of the dead has always been buried deep in my heart.

At this time, he instantly erupted in front of Lao Yan, which really startled him.

"Why, people who have listened to the stories you tell will be killed by you in the end."

His expression was serious, but there was a joking tone in his voice.

Let my aura that has gone through hardships for more than ten years and gradually condensed dissipate in an instant.

"How is that possible, hahaha."

I smiled awkwardly and laughed a few times, but my face gradually revealed a sense of horror, this time it was not that I was trying to scare him.

It's that I can't help but shudder when I think about it.

"Whew..."

I subconsciously took a deep breath, looked at his deep gaze, and spoke little by little.

"Later... What I never dreamed of was that the hundred-year-old tree actually set us up again, but the goal was already from me,... Change... It became Wu Lao Dog. ”
