Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Haunted Forest

After a while, Professor Shuang's mood seemed to calm down a lot, he sighed softly, and whispered in a slow tone: "After my brother knew that he needed two treasure maps to find the library, he spent another two years traveling to many places, and only then did he find out that the second treasure map was hidden in Xianyang Ghost Forest, the capital of the Qin Dynasty. ”

Zheng Xiaoming only now understands that all the information about the library that Lao Shuang knows is provided by his own brother. No wonder he knew so many important clues, and his brother had put too much effort into finding the library. However, there is a question that has been bothering Zheng Xiaoming, that is, since Professor Shuang's brother already knows the location of the second treasure map, with his perseverance, why didn't he get this treasure map? Why did you let your brother get this treasure map? Does he have some secret or something else in it?

Zheng Xiaoming's series of questions kept flashing in his heart, and he wanted to know how many things he didn't know contained in this. His eyes were fixed on the table of the coffee table, thinking quietly, pondering these little-known things from his heart.

Qian Fucai listened to Professor Shuang's story just now, and was really fascinated, only to see him half-open his mouth, frowning, and nodding his head lightly from time to time, as if he was still quite interested in what Professor Shuang said.

Professor Shuang stood up, walked to the window, gently opened the curtains, looked up at the night sky outside, stared at the shining stars, couldn't help crying quietly, and muttered: "Unexpectedly, just when my brother was about to come to Xianyang to look for the second treasure map, he fainted at home, and his family sent him to the local hospital, and when he was found to be in the advanced stage of liver cancer, he died after a short hospitalization!" When he said this, Professor Shuang was already crying, and the tears kept flowing down.

After listening to Professor Shuang's words, Zheng Xiaoming knew why Professor Shuang had been in a sad mood, and in his heart, his own brother had passed away, and of course he was very sad as a younger brother. In order to let Professor Shuang recover his calm mood as soon as possible, he hurriedly said: "Professor Shuang, people can't be resurrected after death, don't be too sad, fortunately, we are still doing what he has always wanted to do, which can be regarded as the best comfort to your brother!" ”

Qian Fucai saw that Professor Shuang's mood fluctuated so much, and hurriedly said: "Professor Shuang, don't worry, we young people will definitely fulfill your brother's unfulfilled wish with you!" He would be glad in Heaven to know that we are doing this now! ”

Don't say it, Zheng Xiaoming and Qian Fucai's persuasion really played a certain role, the two professors shook their heads painfully, stopped crying, looked at the stars in the night sky, sighed, and whispered: "I believe that my brother must know everything we are doing now in heaven!" He'll be pleased! After saying that, he turned around and casually took a few pieces of paper from the coffee table and wiped the tears from his face.

Zheng Xiaoming saw that Professor Shuang's mood was much calmer at the moment, and he hurriedly said, "Yes, your brother will definitely be relieved in heaven!" ”

After a while, Professor Shuang raised his hand to close the curtains, then turned around and sat on the sofa, took a deep breath, looked at the two young people, and said with a little guilt on his face: "I'm really sorry, I thought of my brother's death just now, and I was indeed a little sad, a little rude, I shouldn't cry!" After saying that, he wiped the tears on his face with the back of his hand.

Zheng Xiaoming hurriedly said: "There's nothing to be embarrassed about, of course you will feel pain when you lose your loved ones, we can understand it!" Don't take it to heart! We admire what your brother has done! ”

"We understand! Don't think about it! Qian Fucai also hurriedly said to Professor Shuang.

Zheng Xiaoming looked at the glass in front of Professor Shuang, there was still a small half cup of water left in it, he quickly stood up, picked up the glass, came to the water dispenser, filled the water for Professor Shuang, and then put it on the coffee table, and said, "Lecture, drink saliva!" If you're too excited, don't talk about it! ”

Professor Shuang originally wanted to say thank you, but after thinking about it, they were all teammates, and if they were too polite, they would seem to be humble-minded, so they didn't say anything, picked up the glass and drank a few sips of water, and then said: "It's okay, I'm much calmer now!" ”

Zheng Xiaoming thought that the saddest moment of Professor Shuang's time had passed, and listening to the tone of his voice now, it seemed that his emotions had returned to calm.

Professor Shuang put down the glass and continued, "My brother actually knew that he had cancer, but he kept his illness hidden from his family in order to find the library. It wasn't until he finally lost his health that he handed me the materials he had collected and half of the treasure map, and told me some of the things he had encountered along the way! I also said a few things about the Ghost Forest! Tell me to find and protect the library, and don't let the bad guys destroy the artifacts inside! ”

Zheng Xiaoming and Qian Fucai's eyes lit up at the same time when they heard the word "ghost forest", because this was the place where they were going to find the second treasure map.

Zheng Xiaoming pondered for a while, he felt that it was really necessary to listen carefully about the ghost forest, because what kind of place the ghost forest was, he really didn't have a bottom in his heart, but from the analysis of this name, he felt a little crazy. If you know a little bit about the ghost forest in advance, it's also a good thing to be mentally prepared in advance.

Professor Shuang lowered his head, thought for a moment, looked at the two young people in front of him, shook his head, and said, "What kind of place is the Ghost Forest, why don't you talk about it first!" When you get to this place, you'll know some of these things! ”

Zheng Xiaoming originally wanted to hear Professor Shuang say a few words about the Ghost Forest, but when he heard Professor Shuang say this, he felt a little surprised, and he also felt a little puzzled in his heart, this Professor Shuang looked at people who didn't want to joke, why did he suddenly stop talking about the Ghost Forest like a child? Hurriedly asked, "Lecture, didn't you want to talk about the ghost forest just now?" How did you change your mind in the blink of an eye? ”

Qian Fucai looked at Professor Shuang with surprised eyes, smiled bitterly, shook his head gently, and looked helpless on his face.

The double professor whispered: "Yes, I originally wanted to talk to you, but I think about it carefully, it will be good for you not to talk about the ghost forest!" ”

Zheng Xiaoming was a little confused when he heard this, and said casually: "Why do you say that? ”

Professor Shuang whispered, "My brother didn't enter the ghost forest himself, but he was a very careful person, and he inquired about this place with some nearby residents before he wanted to go in and find the second treasure map. ”

Zheng Xiaoming hurriedly said: "What did others say? ”

After a while, Professor Shuang had a slight trace of fear on his face, and whispered, "The residents said that there are a lot of dead people buried in this place of the Ghost Forest, and it is often haunted, and some strange things often happen!" There are also some who choose to hang themselves here! ”

When Zheng Xiaoming heard these words, he felt that his scalp was numb for a while, as if a cool breeze had blown on his body for a while, and goosebumps all over his body suddenly rose. His heart's words, no wonder Professor Shuang didn't want to say it, it turned out to be really a bit evil! But after thinking about it, since he participated in this secret archaeological team, he is still the captain, even if there is a sword mountain and a sea of fire in front of him, he has to break through! Whatever demons and monsters have to touch! I'm out of the way!

Qian Fucai's face also changed slightly, he stared, looked at the corner of the room, and then looked at the closed door again, and said, "Let the professor say this, why do I feel a little unsteady in my heart!" Always feel like something follows you! When I think of going to the ghost forest, I feel unsure! ”
