One hundred and seventy-nine chapters
"Hey! This old thing...... The temper of asking people to do things is not small, and they really eat and want to take care of the? I held back my emotions and didn't say anything, lit a cigarette, sat down at the head of the old man's bed, and gestured for him to continue.
The old man didn't want to leave at all when he saw me like this, but he was not in a hurry, leaning against the wall, he smoked a hookah for a while, and asked me unhurriedly: "Does your family live at the entrance of the village?" Not far behind the house is the old house in the village that has fallen into disrepair all year round? ”
"Right? What's wrong? ”
The old man didn't speak again, but just smoked a cigarette vigorously and his sad face made me more curious about it.
"If you have anything to say, just say it! After all, I'm also your junior, and I won't embarrass you if you have something to ask me."
"Please? You're a fool! I'm doing it all for your own good, you know the fart! ”
"For my own good, why don't you do it yourself? What are you looking for me for? I couldn't help laughing, looking at the old man's speechless appearance, my heart was happy.
The old man stared at me for a long time, as if he had made up his mind, and then said to me seriously: "You don't need to ask more about the specific details, I just ask you to go to the ancient mansion to find a mirror for me, and you don't need to worry about the rest!" ”
The smiling face didn't last long, and I couldn't help but be alert when I looked at the old man's serious appearance. The ancient house he said was a forbidden area for my father, and my father told me more than once that I must not rush into Wushan and the ancient house, these two places are forbidden places that my brother and I have decided, and there is no discussion at all.
Throwing the cigarette butt aside, I also looked at the old man and said solemnly: "Uncle, it will be a little good to ask someone to do something, that place is already dangerous, you let me go in alone, you have to give me some different benefits, right?" ”
When the old man heard this, he sneered and said to me, "Good? It's the biggest benefit that you've been alive until now, and there's only one mirror in the house, and it will naturally be good for you if you help me take it out."
I waved my hand and looked at the old man with a sarcastic expression, when will I still play dumb riddles, and really I don't know the danger of that place? I'm not your little brother, why did I go to that kind of place for no reason, besides, if I'm unlucky, if something evil happens, who will be responsible? Do you want to put your life at the bottom of your life? Your old fellow's life is nowhere near as valuable as my Fantasia years.
I lit another cigarette and said nothing, but the old man seemed to see my concerns. He put the hookah aside, suddenly opened the drawer again, took out a box of good cigarettes from it, and said to me as he opened it: "You poor people with black blood do not usually live long, I promise you that if you can take out that mirror, it will definitely help me and you in the future, and then it will be too late for you to thank me!" ”
I took the good cigarette in the old man's hand and couldn't help laughing: "Uncle, I don't know if it's good or not, but I'm not stupid, that place is completely a situation in the village, and the weirdness is completely on the same level as that Wushan, if you say this, I'll go to the house to explore it, it's too hasty and too mentally retarded, right?" ”
"Believe it or not, if it weren't for my inconvenience now, I would still need you to wait for juniors to help? I'll tell you the truth, your good days are numbered, and if you want to live a peaceful life in school here, you can only listen to me, do you want those weird and strange things to disturb your life again? ”
After listening to the old man's words, I couldn't help but hesitate, even if I spent my days in this school, my life didn't seem to be very peaceful, first the classmates who died inexplicably, and then the Zang baby area that was found on a date, and the supernatural events that I encountered at the last sports meeting, all of which seem to be closely related to me in the dark, if this old guy really said that there will be no peaceful days in the future, then how can I still have the heart to study for exams, isn't this even the chance of dating Gui Lun will be reduced?
"I'm an old acquaintance with your grandfather, so naturally I won't lie to you, and I'll tell you if he can't say anything. You go and help me get the mirror back, if you face a strange incident at school in the future, even if it is me who is in danger, I will definitely bear the brunt of it in front of you, and I will naturally be able to keep you safe! ”
"Come on, uncle, just take more supplements to prolong your life, I'm still young! There are still many days, so you don't have to worry about me when you're old! ”
"In a word! To say yes or not to agree, if you don't agree, you won't come to my house to smoke anymore, get out of my house as far as you want! ”
As soon as the old man talked about smoking, it suddenly tugged at my heartstrings, in fact, I had always wanted to go to that forbidden place to see what was going on, and I had already been to Wushan once in my father's two forbidden places, and I felt that it was not a big deal. And my father didn't seem to blame me, and it was just a few words. And now my curiosity is getting stronger and stronger, but there is only this forbidden place and lonely house left, this time it is this old man begging me to do something, but it is also an opportunity, if my father finds out, I seem to have a reason to say, if it is really not good, just blame all this reason on this old guy? Let's just say that he forced me to take the risk? Not bad...... This must be a good idea, both to satisfy the curiosity and logically to make the old man owe me a favor, if I am lucky enough to find that mirror, won't I have a smoking base in school? The more I thought about it, the more I felt that it was a good deal, and I was just about to open my mouth to bargain with him, but the old man couldn't help but speak to me again.
"That mirror is very important to me, and when I die, that thing will naturally belong to you, and there is no one in the village to go except you as a freak, you believe my old man once, and getting that mirror back is not bad for me and for you, only good!"
The old man's words in the first half of the sentence puzzled me very much, what does it mean that there is no one else to go except me, a freak, and I am not a mortal like everyone else, how can I be slightly different?
When he saw me talking and laughing, he became even more ugly, and after hesitating for a while, he suddenly said to me: "With my understanding of freaks like you who have black blood flowing in their bodies, it is inevitable that the Heavenly Evil Lone Star will have a miserable life. The closer people are to you, the more miserable they will be, and if you are not careful, your wife will be separated and your family will be ruined. Think about it yourself, if people like you have already ended up like this! ”
After listening to the old man's words, I couldn't help but hesitate for a while, as he said, who else would shed the same black blood as me? Thinking about it, it seems that there is only one madman, his life deeds seem to be chic and admired, but if you think about it carefully, it is really as endless desolation as the old man said. He was originally an aunt's child, a home, but he was with the mountains all day long, and he never stepped into the house, and not long ago, the madman's father, that is, Xiongzi's uncle, died suddenly, and now there is no reasonable explanation.
I can't help but think of myself again, my brother has been away in the family recently, my mother has been seriously ill, and even my father, who is used to it, has suddenly become afloat and slightly abnormal. Could it all be a subtle sign? I didn't dare to think about it, and looked into the old man's eyes in the hope that he would bring me more useful information in the future.
"If you believe me, I'll help me get that mirror back, if you don't believe it, you will act as if nothing happened today, and all the cause and effect will be decided by you!"
I was very puzzled by the "tsk", this old guy simply talked more and more mysteriously, and actually got to the cause and effect, he really didn't have back pain when he stood and talked.
"Okay, I promise you to go to that ancient mansion, but I made it clear in advance, if you don't take it to that mirror, it will depend on my fate, as long as I come back from that house, you will become my base for smoking and drinking, don't think about repaying the debt in the future!"
The old man laughed heartily, threw a cigarette and said to me: "Let's bleed, as long as you go and come back safe and sound, you will take the mirror if you have a chance to come back safely, and when you come back after you have been there, you will be grateful to me, your grandfather just loves you too much, and wants to drag everything back and hesitate, if you follow him, you will definitely live a miserable life in the future!" ”
"! Old guys! So you're trying to trick me into going to a lonely house, right? I said why are you so abnormal today, it turns out that it's all a routine! Isn't there the mirror you said at all? It's all you old thing trying to trick me into making it up! ”
The old man looked at me and smiled at me and suddenly scolded: "Little rabbit, you don't know the rules when you speak." Go back and ask your grandfather, what should you call me? It's not big or small, just listen to what I say, and when you come back, you know everything, get out! Don't stay here and smoke! ”
The old man suddenly turned his face and gave me an eviction order, I really couldn't help but want to scold him, after saying for a long time, I really can't tell whether his sentence is true and which sentence is false, and it is really that the older people are, the worse they are! This is obviously calculating against me! He had already set up a game to arouse my curiosity, and then casually threw up a topic to lure me into it. Although I can tell the difference clearly, I am extremely curious about that place! It seems that I don't feel sorry for the fact that I'm a little unwilling and curious in my heart! After talking for a long time, it wasn't the strange mirror that asked me to find the ancient mansion at all, it was completely stimulating my curiosity and forcing me to explore where the hell was it! This is really a good game of chess, and the feeling in the clouds really made it clear to me that I have to go to that lonely house!
"Old thing! Just go, I'll go to this door, stand and look at it, and then come back, I'll see if you have anything else to say! actually brought up my grandfather, it really takes a hundred panics to tell a lie! ”
I secretly scolded the old man in my heart but I was unwilling to admit that I had been tricked, and at the moment there was an extra arrangement, and when the matter of Brother Xiong was resolved, I would go to the ancient house to see what was going on, what could make this old man so calculating to me......
