The inside of the cave is very dry and not very deep, about ten meters, and many stones of different shapes are arranged to look like various furniture, and you can see the traces of people living in it for a long time.

Lu Yan ignored me, turned around, found a lower stone and sat down.

"Si'an, sit, let's talk!"

His voice was soft and tired, except for his big arms resting lightly against the stone table next to him.

I was not surprised by the chatter he was talking about, and I picked up a stone across from him and sat down, watching him and waiting for him to speak.

"You always want to know who I am...... Lu Yan's voice was a little erratic, "or rather, you want to know if I'm human." ”

I nodded, thought about it and said, "Lu Yan, if you don't want to say it, you can not say it, I have always trusted you." ”

Lu Yan smiled unnaturally, "No, I have to say. ”

"I've lived for so long, so long that I've forgotten a lot of things, and I have to write them down." Lu Yan's eyes blurred, and he fell into his own memories, "I used to use many names, most of them were made by myself, except for my earliest one, you can understand that it was my real name." ”

"My real name is Liu Ranqing!"

Like a thunderclap exploding in my ears, I stood up suddenly, pointing at Lu Yan's indifferent and delicate face like an eternal snow-capped mountain, gurgling in my throat but unable to speak.

Lu Yan pointed to the stone under my buttocks, "The story is very long, so let's sit and listen slowly." ”

"Lu Yan, what you said is true?" I finally broke free from the shackles of fear, but my voice was still shaky.

"Yes, are you ready to listen?"

"Why are you telling me?" I had slowly calmed down, staring at the incomparably familiar ancient man hundreds of years ago in front of me.

Lu Yan ignored me and began to tell his story.

"The Xia family is an extremely old family, I don't know when they started to exist, and I can't even imagine it. For the history of this family, I once wanted to research, but I didn't gain anything, I only knew that after a huge accident, the Xia family was almost wiped out, and the only lifeline was adopted by a eunuch, which was the Liu family. ”

"I can't remember anything too trivial, but I remember that it was at that time that I first came here......"

I know that what he said is exactly what Liu Shishi told me, it seems that he really lived for a long time, and three generations in his mouth were just then.

"I met that guy here!" Lu Yan pointed in the direction we came, and I knew he was referring to the senior he was talking about.

"I learned about the Xia family from him, and by that time, the inheritance of the Xia family had stopped for three generations......"

"I'm an outlier in the Xia family!"

Lu Yan's narration was very jumpy, and I tried hard to concentrate to keep up with his rhythm. He is naturally an outlier, the Xia family has gone to Xia Mountain to become a monster, and he is still pretending to be a police officer here.

"I am an outlier of the Xia family, I have accepted the inheritance here, and my task is to maintain the mission of the Xia family and correct it when something goes wrong."

"So the first thing you did after you came out was to find the ancestral home of the Xia family, the place you want to protect?"

Lu Yan looked at me, he should have acquiesced, but he didn't continue, but began to talk about other things.

"The Xia family seems to be a creature that can change form, just like there is a lock in the gene, open it to change form, and turn it off to keep it. When the newcomer appeared, the Xia family didn't know why they left Xia Mountain, but agreed that each generation would return to the mountain and open the lock to become an omnipotent monster to defend the secret of eternal life! ”

Listening to an ancient man say something like a gene lock, although it is nothing compared to Lu Yan's identity, it still makes me feel a little unbelievable, and one of the words quickly attracted my attention, "Newcomer? How do you know newcomers? ”

Although Lu Yan said a lot, he didn't become talkative, and I still didn't get an answer.

"When I took over the inheritance, I also gained a lot of ability, and in the years to come, I have been switching between different identities, approaching my descendants, and urging them to fulfill their responsibilities!"

Lu Yan let out a sigh, as if he was a little confused, or a little painful.

"My son, unwilling to be a monster that never sees the light of day, died in the summer mountain ...... when he fled"

This kind of thing seems to be insignificant compared to the long years, but Lu Yan still said it very seriously, I think he should feel pain in his heart.

"He also took the key, I went to look for it many times, but I never found it again, because I had no idea where he died!"

Lu Yan pointed to the fixed light sword on my waist, "That's the key ......" and then fell into deep thought, as if he didn't know where to start with his next words.

I touched the smooth hilt of my sword and felt the darkness around me ferment with the air, gradually running out of oxygen and becoming difficult to breathe.

"Later, the inheritance became simple, and the Xia family was born with a deep-rooted sense of responsibility and reverence for the inheritance in their minds, and whenever the time was approaching a serious illness, they would fake their deaths at home, and the real body would go to Xiashan to be the guardian of a generation."

"But just a few decades ago, something happened again, and the head of the family of that generation was named ...... I can't remember, he was a man of great courage, after receiving his father's inheritance, he vowed to change the fate of the family, and after just a dozen years, he left the family and took the inheritance away on the grounds of preserving the family, wanting to guard it there forever! ”

"You're talking about...... Liu Weiming? I hesitated.

"I can't remember clearly, that year the imperial court wanted to change the great feng shui, and naturally found the Liu family, the head of the Liu family adhered to the ancestral teachings and refused to agree, the imperial court did not hesitate to destroy the Liu family, he took advantage of the situation to agree, and took away the inheritance, in fact, he wanted to close it forever and prevent future generations from stepping on!"

"The ban on that sinkhole was set up by Liu Weiming?" I thought about it at once.

"At that time, my name was Zhang Guoqing!"

I was already a little numb, but I still didn't expect Zhang Guoqing to be him, and at the same time, I remembered the diary, the content of which obviously did not match Lu Yan's identity! This makes me suspect that Lu Yan is not making up a story!

"I've seen your diary......," I said tentatively.

"I wrote that diary, and every identity must be reasonable so as not to arouse the suspicion of the world, but even so, some really smart people can still find clues." Lu Yan Road.

"Who found out?"

"Chang Donglai!" Lu Yan quietly spit out the name, "It is precisely because of this that we will become colleagues!" ”
