Hu Shuntang didn't have a too excited expression, which made Wei Chiran and Tang Anshu feel that something was wrong.

Wei Chiran asked, "Senior, we can bring you back this time." ”

Hu Shuntang didn't react, just chewed on the jerky.

Tang Anshu glanced at Wei Chiran and said, "Senior, but this needs your help." ”

After Hu Shuntang finished eating the dried meat and drank some water, he said: "If the truth of heaven and ordinary people is the truth, then is there still meaning in what you are doing now?" ”

Tang Anshu and Wei Chiran glanced at each other, and Hu Shuntang said again: "According to what you said, both of you belong to the heavenly people, belong to the real human beings, maybe I am too, then when our memories awaken, we will naturally do things for the benefit of the heavens and men that we will not do before we recover our memories, maybe when the time comes, we will destroy everything that we have worked so hard to create, and what is even more terrifying is that if we recover our memories at the moment when we are about to succeed, we may personally kill those ordinary people who were once regarded as companions and relatives, When the time comes, we will not feel guilty, but we will be glad that our memories have been restored and we have not done anything stupid. ”

Hu Shuntang hit the nail on the head and pointed out the biggest problem of the current crisis joint command, as celestials, although they are now determined, no one knows what kind of decision they will make at the moment when their memories are restored.

Tang Anshu was silent, Wei Chiran didn't know what to say, Hu Shuntang looked out the door: "I don't remember how long I've been here, I have forgotten a lot of things before, sometimes I even give up the idea of escaping here, thinking about simply staying here, but there is no concept of time here, that is, there is no end to me here." ”

Hu Shuntang was so negative, which Tang Anshu and Wei did not expect.

Wei Chiran's personality was still impatient, he got up and said, "Senior, you just give me a happy word, do you want to go back with us?" ”

Hu Shuntang didn't even look at him, just sat there in a daze.

Tang Anshu motioned for Wei Ran to sit down, and then said: "Senior, Zhan Tianya has been looking for you for many years and has been waiting for you to go back, you are very important in his heart, you are not only his comrade-in-arms, but also his brother." I didn't understand it before, I didn't know what I was pursuing, and even when I found Ling Jian, I was very confused, I didn't think that was my mission, in fact, I don't think it now. ”

Hu Shuntang finally raised his eyes and looked at Tang Anshu: "Since you think that is not your mission, why do you want to continue?" ”

"I've survived because of Edge, I guess I really have some kind of mission, right? But I don't approve of it, because what happened a hundred years ago made me very disappointed, and the world is terrible. Tang Anshu said this, paused, and said, "Until I heard from the new trench that benzoin has always remembered her promise to me, she has been waiting for me, and she is also looking for me, and she has never given up for a hundred years, and even before she died, she warned the heir of the trench that no matter how many years have passed, they must find me." ”

Hu Shuntang just listened quietly, without saying a word, his eyes drooping, thoughtful.

Tang Anshu said: "In fact, no matter where you are, what you are doing, what kind of predicament you are facing, if you know that there is always such a person, whether this person is your brother, your lover, or your parents, no matter who it is, you know that there is always such a person waiting for you and looking for you, you should not let him down, even if you have a full reason, you should at least go to meet him." It was painful to wait for a person, I didn't know it before, until I saw Benzoin's tombstone and saw the picture of her youth that she deliberately left on the tombstone, I understood. ”

Hu Shuntang's eyes were still lowered, and he muttered a long list of names: "Yaksha King, Burial Qingyi, Wei Xuanyu, Mo Qin...... They were all gone, as if they had never appeared, and only Zhan Wangba and I were left. ”

Wei Chiran said: "Seniors, I know that they are irreplaceable, and there are such people around me, but the departure of some people is not your responsibility." ”

Tang Anshu also said: "A hundred years ago, I also lost my best friend, I can't do anything about it, I can only watch him die, and there are many friends of life and death, and now I don't even know where they are buried." I also thought about the question you said before, what would happen if my celestial memory awakened? I don't know, but I do know that I will definitely always remember those who fought alongside me. ”

"Yes, I will always remember," Hu Shuntang finally raised his eyes, with a slight smile on his face, "By the way, how is Zhan Wangba now?" ”

Tang Anshu said: "It's good, I'm still the head of the Department of Ancient Science." ”

Hu Shuntang said: "He was not the absolute person in charge before, forget it, don't talk about this, let's find a way to leave, the secret armor you mentioned before, in the source world, because it has nothing to do with our task, so, I don't care so much, the most important thing is that I am also a halfway craftsman, not a child living in a different way, plus now it is divided into ten worlds, so, many things must be different from the source world, but I know that there is a place here to find the answer." ”

When Tang Anshu heard this, he immediately asked, "Do you want to say that it's the black tower?" ”

Hu Shuntang said: "Yes, it's the black tower, I went there a few days ago, I saw Ai Qi there, no matter what I asked her, she refused to answer, just told me that the time has not yet come, and when the time comes, she will naturally give me an answer, I don't know if your arrival is the time." ”

Tang Anshu recalled: "I once met Aiqi in the tower, and although Aiqi told me part of the truth at that time, I couldn't understand it at that time because there were too few clues. ”

"Then go to the tower and ask that Edge, but before that, you need to eat something," Hu Shuntang took off the jerky and handed it over, "Don't dislike it, this meat is good, I didn't need to eat here originally, but I'm human after all, and there is always a time when you have a craving, you can taste it." ”

Wei Chiran and Tang Anshu heard Hu Shuntang say this, and they couldn't excuse themselves, so they endured nausea and ate the jerky, but they didn't expect that the jerky was far better than they imagined, and they couldn't stop eating as soon as they ate, and after eating and drinking, the two who were already tired fell asleep.

Hu Shuntang didn't seem to need sleep, leaning against the wall and looking at them, as if he had returned to the days of adventure in the Source World.

Wei Chiran and Tang Anshu didn't know how long they had been asleep, and when the two woke up, they found that Hu Shuntang was gone. Originally, Hu Shuntang showed them a negative side, so the two were afraid that Hu Shuntang would leave, so they quickly got up, and as soon as they went out, they saw Hu Shuntang wearing a cloak walking slowly from a distance, and there was something dragging behind him.

After Hu Shuntang approached, the two found out that it was a huge centipede.

"Putref centipede, a specialty here," Hu Shuntang threw the centipede into the house, pulled out the coffin nail and pulled off the shell on the surface of the centipede, and then pointed to the white mucus between the shell and the meat, "If you want to pass safely, you have to smear these mucus on your body, which can avoid a lot of trouble." ”

Wei was puzzled: "Avoid a lot of trouble? ”

Hu Shuntang explained: "The wild people you saw in the stone forest before are actually lost, in the words of the normal world, they belong to the lonely ghosts, they have no memories of life, they have no humanity, except for killing is to eat and drink, they are here to hunt those who strayed into this place, come and kill one by one, before you, many people have died here." ”

Tang Anshu asked, "Is it easy to get in here?" ”

"It's not easy, but some people are unlucky, so they come over inexplicably, people of all ages have it," Hu Shuntang began to smear the slime on his clothes, "Before, the reason why those wild people were afraid of me was because I fought with them, and they knew that they were invincible, and second, because I had this smell on my body, and what these wild people were most afraid of was the rotten centipede, because they were not the opponent of that monster at all. ”

Wei Chi squatted down and touched the disgusting slime: "Then how did you catch this thing?" ”

Hu Shuntang said with a smile: "I have encountered a lot of this thing in the source world, and I didn't dare to approach it at that time, because this thing can spray strong acid and corrode everything, but it also has weaknesses, as long as you find the weakness, you can capture it alive, then again, as long as you leave here, there is no need to capture this thing again." By the way, part of the jerky you ate earlier is the meat of this thing, the most tender piece of meat in the middle of the body. ”

Hearing this, Wei Chiran and Tang Anshu almost vomited, but they still held back, because the smell of the putrid centipede mucus at this moment could not be described with a stench, they really couldn't understand, how could such a stinky monster have such delicious meat?

Hu Shuntang's explanation is that this thing decays very quickly after death, just like shrimp that has been dead for several days, and when the shrimp is fresh, it is also delicious to peel off the shell.

Although they couldn't accept Hu Shuntang's explanation, the two still applied slime to their clothes. While the two were preparing, Hu Shuntang walked to the stone house where You Sifang was located, and looked at the almost demented old man in the stone house.

"Senior," Hu Shuntang squatted down and placed a backpack in front of You Sifang. Although he should be You Sifang's predecessor, judging from his appearance, You Sifang is much older than him, and he is also a hunt here during the Anti-Japanese War in a parallel world.

Hu Shuntang opened the bag and revealed the contents inside: "There are cigarettes and some food here, all of which were scraped from the corpses of those who strayed into here, you save some food, I'm leaving." ”

You Sifang didn't seem to understand, at this time he was no longer as clear as when Tang Qianlin came, because he was trapped in an infinite circle of death, his memory was already confused, and the confusion eventually led to dementia.

You Sifang was just rummaging for cigarettes in his backpack, and he didn't even look at Hu Shuntang.

Hu Shuntang asked, "Do you want to go with me?" ”

You Sifang didn't answer, just lit a cigarette and smoked greedily.

Just as Hu Shuntang was about to leave, You Sifang said in a low voice: "Have a safe journey." ”
