It's annoying to get the chapter wrong-Overworld (4)
After about half an hour of traveling, Tang Juyi finally found the place indicated by the dirty red stone - a very inconspicuous small shop.
Outside the doorway of the shop was a long dusty table with a few unseen objects scattered on it, which looked like displays for attracting customers, but they were poorly maintained and had fallen into dust.
After four or five laps around this shop, Tang Juyi was sure that the place where the light filament was pointing was indeed here, and then he cautiously walked into this small shop.
While entering, Tang Juyi also asked tentatively:
"Anyone?"
Seeing that no one responded, Tang Juyi had to raise his voice again, but still did not get a response.
The interior of the shop is dimly lit, and there are several large facilities that seem to have not been used for some years.
In addition, there are several small objects hanging on the wall that Tang Juyi can't name, faintly revealing a peculiar fluctuation.
Out of politeness and prudence, Tang Juyi did not step forward to touch those items, but continued to walk towards the store, while observing the environment in the depths of the store.
A table that had just been wiped down, a messy bed, and a cup of unknown liquid that was still steaming made Tang Juyi quickly come to the conclusion that there were still people staying here not long ago.
When Tang Juyi was unaware, a low and old voice also sounded behind him:
"What are you going to buy?"
Tang Juyi was taken aback, because he was completely unaware of the approach of the person behind him.
Quickly turning around and retreating, Tang Juyi also saw the face and posture of the person who came - an old man with a rickety body. The old man's hair was unkempt, and the dirt in it was clearly visible, and he had not been taken care of for a long time, and even his eyes were dull and a little cloudy.
There is no obvious difference in appearance between the humans of this Donghua Star and the humans of the earth, so Tang Juyi directly has a rough judgment on the age of the old man in front of him - between 70 and 80 years old.
Leaving a safe distance of two meters, Tang Juyi calmed down and said cautiously:
"Well, someone called me here and said he knew what to do......"
The old man's face was full of wrinkles, and there were several wide, hideous scars on his face, which made his face look very unkind.
Hearing Tang Juyi's words, the old man's expression did not wave:
"You don't even know what you're going to do, how do I know?"
Tang Juyi was stunned for a moment, and immediately thought of something, so he held up the red stone that he had been holding in his hand to the old man, and said at the same time:
"He gave me this and told me to follow the instructions above."
In the next moment, this stone appeared in the hands of the rickety old man in a shabby cyan robe in front of him, and even Tang Juyi did not react.
"What speed is this?!"
Tang Juyi couldn't help but be shocked.
Indeed, after advancing to become an infernal jailer, Tang Juyi's physical fitness has already made a terrifying leap, coupled with the perception of his [Infernal Pupil], his reaction speed and observation power have far exceeded that of before, I don't know how many times, but at this time, I still can't see this old man's movements clearly!
"It's just a guiding stone, I've given so many of these stones in the past few years, I can't remember which one belongs to whom."
The old man shook his head and threw the stone back to Tang Juyi.
Seeing that the old man didn't want to talk more, Tang Juyi was also a little puzzled, because Yan Chuan did ask him to follow this guide stone to find it, and it shouldn't be this situation.
So, Tang Juyi asked tentatively again:
"Have you ever heard of the name 'Yanchuan'?"
When pronouncing the word "Yanchuan", Tang Juyi deliberately used Chinese on the earth, while carefully observing the old man's demeanor, trying to capture some hidden information.
To his disappointment, the old man had no reaction to Yanchuan's name, and was even a little impatient:
"I haven't heard of it. If you're not going to buy something, you can go out without anything else. ”
Tang Juyi's heart sank when he heard this, but he didn't know what clues he had missed.
"No, Uncle Chuan clearly only explained this, and there are no other clues in the cloth bag......"
At this time, there was a commotion outside the door, and a cavalry on an unknown beast passed through the street, bringing up a puff of dust and smoke, and at the same time causing a commotion among pedestrians.
With a keen sense of hearing, Tang Juyi clearly heard the discussion of the pedestrians outside:
"Isn't that the guard of King Du's mansion?"
……
"The cold cavalry guards are all alarmed, what will be the big deal?"
……
"I don't know who provoked the people of Du Wangfu again......"
……
Tang Juyi wanted to listen to some other content, but he was directly pushed by the old man behind him, interrupting his thoughts.
"Let's go, don't disturb my rest."
As if chasing flies, the old man planned to push Tang Juyi out of the door. His body looks very thin, but his strength is extremely amazing, even with Tang Juyi's strength at this time, he was pushed to a stumbling ground and almost fell.
"Uncle, you wait......"
Tang Juyi was a little anxious and wanted to delay a little longer.
And the old man didn't buy it:
"Don't waste my time. You can't even tell who asked you to come, what else do you want to do? ”
Tang Juyi was also in a state of flux, and immediately tried to say Yanchuan's name in the language of Yu Huaxing, but the old man still didn't react, looking like he had never heard it at all.
"Wen Weizhi? Have you heard of Wen Wei's name? ”
Tang Juyi was already pushed out of the door with half a foot, and at the same time he also tried to use the three words "Wen Weizhi", but unfortunately the old man still didn't enter:
"Not at all!"
Seeing that he was about to be completely kicked out, Tang Juyi was also anxious, how could he completely resist this old man, and he didn't know what to do for a while.
But soon, a possibility flashed through his mind like lightning:
"Will it be ......?"
So, Tang Juyi made one last attempt:
"Fang Wentian! Do you have any impression of the name Fang Wentian? ”
This time, the old man's movements paused, and at the same time, he stared at Tang Juyi's face with those cloudy but sharp eyes:
"Are you talking ...... 'Fang Wentian'? Did he let you come? ”
When Tang Juyi saw the old man's appearance, of course he understood that he had finally guessed the right idea, but because of this, he felt even more incredulous.
Fang Wentian? Isn't this name the legend that Yeonchuan once told? The man who led the ship of Theseus all the way to a level 5 squad?
Tang Juyi, who couldn't figure it out, couldn't help but say in his heart:
"It's really related to Fang Wentian?! Could it be that Uncle Chuan asked me to look for the treasure that Fang Wentian hid back then?! Impossible, how could I do such a thing? Shouldn't they be responsible? ”
Seeing that Tang Juyi didn't react, the old man frowned:
"Tell me, what's that boat called?"
Hearing the question, Tang Juyi also came back to his senses, and in the face of this question, he subconsciously thought of the answer:
"The ship of Theseus?"
Hearing this answer, the old man's eyes softened:
"Hmm...... It was indeed him. ”
As soon as this remark came out, it confirmed Tang Juyi's guess.
