92. Investigate the truth of the matter with the strange Taoist priest
At the edge of a lush grove where the graveyard was found, something was amiss.
"Found it, strange Taoist, come and see."
As soon as she found out, Yuan Qiuying turned her head and shouted at the strange Taoist. When he turned his head, he saw the strange Taoist priest standing in the distance behind him, and he was startled.
"Why don't you walk silently, it scares me."
Hearing Yuan Qiuying's complaint, the Taoist priest didn't react, just looked at the woman in front of him with calm eyes.
"This girl doesn't care about you, come and see, something is wrong here, I probably don't think the mechanism is here."
After listening to Yuan Qiuying's words, the Taoist priest came closer.
"Indeed."
The two of them groped around the bushes, looking for mechanisms.
"I've found the mechanism, strange Taoist, come and see."
I saw that where Yuan Qiuying pointed out, there was a very smooth black stone, the top of the stone was very clean, and under the cover of grass and soil, it was very found.
"Do you see this stone, it's a mess around here, no one cleans it, but this stone is so clean, it's still here alone. And I just touched it, and it can be moved. ”
Seeing that the strange Taoist priest listened carefully, Yuan Qiuying was also very energetic.
"Hey, strange Taoist, do you think we should go in and have a look now?"
Now that you have found the mechanism, it is equivalent to the door of truth in front of you, and if you open this door, you will be able to know the true cause of the plague, and you will be able to start researching the cure.
"It's foggy."
Hearing the voice of the strange Taoist, Yuan Qiuying noticed that there was already a layer of fog around her, although it was not enough to see the road clearly, but if she went in at this moment, she would definitely not have time to go back, and once the dense fog formed, who knew when those walking corpses would come out.
"Then let's go back first!"
The two of them left the cemetery while the fog was still light, and walked back, anyway, the mechanism was here, and they wouldn't run, and they would come back when there was no fog.
"Hey, strange Taoist, how long have you been living here alone?"
"Are you scared to live here alone?"
"Aren't you lonely?"
"No, it won't."
"What's your name?"
"It's so dangerous here, why don't you leave?"
"Don't want to leave."
Yuan Qiuying asked one after another, and the Taoist priest would only answer one or two, and the two of them walked in the village like this.
It didn't take long for the Broken Dao Temple to appear in front of the two. Seeing that the Taoist temple had arrived, the Taoist priest stepped in, and saw that the Taoist priest had entered the Taoist temple, and Yuan Qiuying also stepped into the Taoist temple.
Hearing a voice behind him, the Taoist priest turned to look at the woman who had followed him into the Taoist temple.
Seeing the strange Taoist priest looking at himself so lightly with his deep eyes, Yuan Qiuying felt that she was about to be sucked in, calmed down, and said: "Now it's almost impossible to see the road outside, there is still a distance in the place where I live, and before I can walk back, I won't be able to see clearly this day, and I don't know what danger is in the thick fog." Strange Taoist, you are so good, you will definitely not let me rush back overnight as a weak woman! ”
After listening to Yuan Qiuying's words, the Taoist priest didn't speak, but still looked at the woman lightly.
There is no response, is it true that you want me to go back alone?
"Strange Taoist, you see that I am such a small piece, and I can't take up much space, you just let me stay here for one night tonight, I promise not to disturb you, okay?"
Looking at the strange Taoist priest in front of him who was a head taller than herself, Yuan Qiuying planned that even if this strange Taoist priest didn't leave anyone tonight, she would stay here if she was playing tricks, first, it was not safe outside now, and second, she really wanted to observe this strange Taoist priest up close. Although he knew that the walking corpse had nothing to do with him, he didn't know how long he had lived here alone, and the people in the village had died, but he was fine here alone, and he came and went freely, which was really curious.
Seeing that the strange Taoist priest didn't speak, Yuan Qiuying continued to speak: "Strange Taoist priest, you just..."
"If you want to stay, stay there!"
Before Yuan Qiuying's words could be finished, the Taoist priest opened his mouth to interrupt and agreed that Yuan Qiuying would stay, and then regardless of Yuan Qiuying's reaction, he went straight into the hall.
"You agreed, great, strange Taoist, you're really good."
Yuan Qiuying looked at the strange Taoist priest in front of her, quickly quickened her pace, and followed the person into the hall.
After entering the hall, Yuan Qiuying found that this temple was really broken, and there was only a small place to sleep.
"Uh, where do I sleep?"
There is only a narrow bed in front of him, and the bedding on the bed is simple, but the bedding is neatly folded, and it can be seen that the owner usually loves to be clean.
"The bed."
"Where did you sleep when I slept?"
"I don't sleep."
As he spoke, he took out a book from his arms, sat on a stool, and began to read.
How many books must this man have, he has already snatched two books from him, and he can still take them out of his arms.
Feeling a little hungry, Yuan Qiuying took out the dry food she brought from her baggage, and then split it into two.
"Give you half."
Yuan Qiuying directly put half of the cake in the arms of the Taoist priest, and then retracted back on the bed to nibble on her own half of the cake.
Looking at the half of the bread in his arms, the Taoist priest moved his mouth, but did not say anything.
"Strange Taoist, what's your name? I've already told you that my name is Yuan Qiuying, and you haven't told me what your name is? ”
Listening to Yuan Qiuying's words, the Taoist priest put down the book in his hand and looked into the distance.
After waiting for a long time, Yuan Qiuying thought that the strange Taoist priest in front of her had fallen asleep, and then she heard the Taoist priest say two words.
"Nope."
Although it was only two words, Yuan Qiuying also understood the meaning.
Without a name, a person who doesn't even have a name, how does he live for so long.
"Since you don't have a name, I'll give you one!"
"If you don't speak, I'll take you as you agree, well, let me think about it."
"Your eyes are so good-looking, or you will be called Yuan Che, and your surname will be my surname, and your single name will be a Che character, how about it, is it good?"
"Yuan Che..."
The Taoist priest muttered the word Yuan Che in his mouth, as if he was savoring the meaning.
"Yuan Che, Yuan Che, it's very suitable for you."
The Taoist priest paused and said, "Thank you." ”
Hearing the words of the strange Taoist, Yuan Qiuying knew that this was agreeing with the name.
"No, no, you will have a name in the future, and when someone asks for your name after you go out, you will directly say that your name is Yuan Che, so that no one will laugh at you."
"Okay."
After listening to Yuan Qiuying's words, the Taoist priest felt for the first time that it was a good thing to have a name.
"Okay, I won't tell you anymore, I'm sleepy, go to sleep first."
As he spoke, he pulled up the thin quilt, lay down on the bed, and closed his eyes.
It didn't take long for the sound of slow but steady breathing from the bed.
The person on the bed had already fallen asleep, and the Taoist priest sitting on the stool kept looking into the distance, not knowing what he was thinking.
