Chapter 39: The mystery is about to be revealed
Hang Yi and the others just stopped to catch their breath. , the latest chapter access: Π¨Π¨Π¨.79xs.Π‘ΠΎΠ . The circular elevator in the middle of the hall suddenly closed the 'door' and went up. Hang Yi suddenly remembered that since the person who controlled "death" could be invisible, it meant that there was another superpower who cooperated with him. At the very least, it's that damn "invisible"! He or she has wanted to snipe them more than once. Hang Yi angrily rushed to the elevator, and Ji Kairui behind him shouted, "No need to chase." I had long expected that we would have more than one opponent. But now, even if we catch them, we don't have the strength to fight anymore. Besides, the guy who was able to take out the 'death' control has already been relieved of the current serious problem. β
Hang thought about it, and he had to let the other superpowers escape.
At this time, Ji Kairui had already extinguished the fire on the corpse with a foam fire extinguisher, and although the person's skin was burned by the fire, he could still vaguely identify him through the outline of his facial features. Ji Kairui recognized him: "It's to the north." β
Everyone gathered around, and the corpse on the ground was the superpower who had been fighting with them for more than ten days to control "death" Xiang Bei. He is by far the least sympathetic opponent. In order to achieve the goal of sniping and killing opponents, they even use the dead as weapons, and even do not hesitate to turn more innocent people and animals into "walking corpses". It's like a loss of human 'sex'. This kind of fate is his own fault and he deserves it.
A surge of power surged through Ji Kairui's body, and this familiar feeling reminded him that he had "upgraded" again. This was something he hadn't expected, he 'fired' the bullet just to identify the man before he was scorched. I didn't expect to become an unexpected "mending knife", but it made me upgrade.
The focus at this time is naturally Hailin. Everyone looked at her, hoping that she would explain her mysterious identity and why she had superpowers. Hang Yi didn't know if he was the only one who heard Hai Lin call Sun Yuchen "Dad", he didn't ask for the time being, waiting for Hai Lin to give an explanation herself.
Of course, Helen also knew that it was impossible to continue the disguise. But her lips tightened, and she seemed to be worried, and after a long time, she muttered, "That's right, I'm just like you, and I'm also a superpower." However, I don't want to talk about my background for the time being. Please give me some time to think about what I should do. But rest assured, that I am not your enemy, but your companion. β
No one doubts this. Otherwise, with Hailin's ability, she would have taken the opportunity to annihilate them in one fell swoop. Hang Yi and Sun Yuchen looked at each other, and their eyes 'exchanged' and reached a consensus. Hang Yi said to Hailin: "I believe in you, and I won't 'force' you." When you've thought about it, you'll tell us, right? β
Hai Lin looked at Hang Yi with excitement and nodded.
Shu Fei looked at the crowds of corpses around him and proposed, "Let's find out if there are any survivors." β
They searched among the walking corpses and the dead for the presence of a single survivor. As a result, Han Feng found Ruan Junxi among the walking corpses.
This was to be expected, as several previous animal attacks and this time the Siberian Tiger had shown that there was a superpowered person who could control animals in their opponents. Both alive and dead are used by man. Everyone choked for the tragic fate of the 13th class leader.
Another result of the search was the discovery of the last person alive in the institute - the "butler" hiding in the closed control room. Through the glass of the window of the control room, he witnessed the entire tragic battle situation, and he was already frightened at this moment.
Ji Kairui stood at the entrance of the 'door' and motioned for the "housekeeper" to open the 'door'. How dare the other party disobey, he quickly opened the 'door', and walked out tremblingly, and said in English: "Please...... Don't kill me. I can do whatever you want me to do. β
Hang Yi did not forget the original purpose of their coming here, and he said in English: "Now you tell us honestly, is there an ancient library in this manor, or in this underground research institute?" β
The "housekeeper" didn't dare to hide it anymore, and said, "Yes." β
Everyone was excited, and Hang Yi said, "Take us right away." Don't play tricks, you know we're awesome. β
The "housekeeper" hurriedly agreed, and he took Hang Yi and the others to a relatively old metal 'door', and took out a key to open the 'door'.
Since coming to this underground research institute, Hang Yi and the others have been exposed to all kinds of high-tech products, but it is the first time they have seen the traditional key to open the 'door', and they expect that the things behind the 'door' are of course special.
Sure enough, an old-fashioned elevator unfolded in front of them. Compared with the high-tech induction elevator in the middle of the lobby, this elevator is similar to the elevator in ordinary residential buildings, or even smaller, and can only stand up to 5 or 6 people at a time. It can only be ridden in two batches.
Hang Yi, Lu Hua, Han Feng and Xin Na rode first with the "housekeeper". The elevator is ascending, there is no floor selection, it goes straight to one place, and the time is very short, only ten seconds, to arrive.
Walking out of the elevator, Hang Yi saw a simple passage that was only a dozen meters long. At the end of the passage is an old 'door'. They were in no hurry to move forward, and only after the rest of them had also arrived by elevator did they walk towards the ancient 'door' carved with some kind of pattern.
The 'door' was closed, but not locked. The "butler" just pushed, and the 'door' opened. What appeared in front of them was the ancient "library" that Sun Yuchen sensed with his mind. The area here is larger than expected, two or three hundred square meters. Rows of wooden bookshelves, old books neatly arranged on the shelves. There are several orange and yellow 'colored' old-fashioned chandeliers hanging on the ceiling 'flower' board in the interior, which shows the quaint temperament here.
Sun Yuchen was 'excited' and was the first to step in, eager to find the key book on the shelf. Suddenly, an old man came out from behind a certain bookshelf and said something in Russian, startling Sun Yuchen.
This old Russian man has silver hair and a silver beard, and is dressed plainly, and he looks at least seventy years old, but he is very 'spirited' and has the style of a scholar. The most incredible thing is that after looking at Hang Yi and the others, he actually asked in Chinese: "Are you Chinese?" β
Hang Yi didn't expect the old man to speak Chinese, so he responded: "Yes, old man, do you speak Chinese?" β
The old man said indifferently: "I have studied all my life, and I always know how to speak several foreign languages." β
Hang Yi saw that this old man was clearly different from those people in the research institute, and asked politely, "May I ask who you are?" β
The old man glanced at the "butler", and the "butler" buried his head in shame. The old man pointed to the heavenly 'flower' board and said, "I am the owner of this manor above. Twenty years ago, these self-proclaimed scientists discovered that there was a hidden underground library underneath my old manor. In the name of building a secret research institute, they wanted to buy the manor, but I flatly refused.
"I didn't expect these people to come hard. They secretly put me under house arrest somewhere, and then secretly remodeled the manor's underground to build a paleontological research institute. Thankfully, they kept the library and kept me under house arrest for twenty years. β
The old man's words were shocking, and they also aroused everyone's indignation against these so-called scientific researchers. Hang Yi said: "Old man, you don't have to stay in this closed and boring underground anymore. In a few moments you will be able to go up with us and return to your long-lost estate. β
The old man smiled indifferently and said in a calm tone of disbelief: "Thank you, young man. In fact, I was originally a book-loving person, and it was not a bad thing that they were placed under house arrest here, and they provided me with food and drink every day, so that I could read quietly and concentrate on studying. Besides, I'm in my old age, and even if I go back to the real world, it's hard to do anything anymore. He died of old age and died here, although he was lonely, but he also avoided many trivial troubles in the world...... However, it is no regret to be able to look at the outside world in my lifetime. β
Hang Yi and the others looked at each other and sighed at the old scholar's detached and generous philosophy of life. Looking at his radiant attitude, he actually felt a little similar to the legendary god who became an immortal. I don't know if it's due to years of self-cultivation and 'sex', or the extraordinary wisdom given by many books. Twenty years of underground life, how can ordinary people understand?
The old scholar asked, "What about the people from the institute below?" β
This matter couldn't be finished for a while, and Hang Yi didn't know how to answer. Ji Kairui said: "It's all dead. β
The old scholar nodded slightly, neither expressing amazement nor asking the reason, as if everything was certain and there was no need to ask more. Reprinted to prove that extraordinary people.
Then he asked, "What did you do here?" β
Sun Yuchen said: "Sir, we just want to find a book. And we don't take it, just look at it here. β
The old scholar said: "This library is as old as the manor above, more than two hundred years old, and the books are even more ancient, and some of them are not even 'books', but precious manuscripts recorded on parchments before the invention of paper, which is unique in the world." It was obtained by my grandfather and great-grandfather from all over the world in a variety of ways. β
He gestured to the "butler", "Do you know why they wanted to build this underground research institute in the first place?" It was in one of my ancient books that I learned that some ancient creatures actually existed in some hidden places of the world and were not extinct. β
Hang Yi and the others were amazed. The old scholar asked, "I wonder which book you are looking for when you come all the way from China?" β
Everyone looked at Sun Yuchen. Sun Yuchen closed his eyes and activated his superpowers. With the target in sight, he effortlessly sensed the location of "the book", walked towards a row of shelves, paused for a moment, stared at the shelves, and 'pulled' out a parchment scroll in the middle of the top floor, to the right.
From the moment he entered this library, the old man's face showed surprise for the first time, and he couldn't help but say: "The book you are looking for happens to be the oldest and most precious book I have here. It is the only hand-copied book from thousands of years ago, and it is the only one in the world. β
The words of the old scholar seem to confirm that Sun Yuchen's induction will not be wrong. Everyone walked over with a 'excited' mood, staring at the brown and yellow 'colored' parchment scroll with broken edges. It's a pity that I don't know what language is printed on it, and I don't even know which language it is, let alone know the title of the book.
Sun Yuchen's heart was pounding, and he felt an irrepressible sense of excitement, as if he could immediately reveal all the secrets when he opened this book, including learning who the old gods were. He asked eagerly, "Sir, can you read this book?" β
"In my own library, of course, there are no books that I can't read. However, the book is written in ancient Greek, and even if I could understand it, it would have taken me a lot of time to translate it all at once. "The old scholar was so clever that he had already guessed that they would ask him to translate the book without the other party's request.
Lu Hua was now anxious to know what kind of book this was, and asked, "Old man, can you tell me the name of this book first?" β
The old scholar said in a sonorous voice: "Homer's epic." β
"What, Homer's epic, I've seen it!" Lu Hua shouted.
The old scholar laughed: "Young man, do you think that this "Homeric Epic" is the same version as the "Homeric Epic" that you bought for 40 yuan in the bookstore and was printed last year, right?" β
Seeing Lu Hua open his mouth, the old scholar stared at him and said: "The world doesn't know that there are actually two versions of Homer's epic. The world has only seen one of these versions. The other version, on the other hand, is a hand-copied version. For thousands of years, there will be no more than five people in the world who have seen it. β
He paused for a moment, then continued, "Perhaps, soon it will become a dozen." β
Sun Yuchen was excited: "So, old man, can you please translate it to us now?" β
"Yes. But I've been used to reading quietly for many years, and I'm afraid that so many of you surround me with me, and I'm afraid it will affect my thinking. The old scholar thought for a moment, "Well, how about you leave three people here while the others go out for the time being?" β
Everyone discussed it for a while, and finally decided that Hang Yi, Lu Hua and Sun Yuchen would stay in the library. Others take the elevator back to the manor on the ground level.
Before leaving with Han Feng and Ji Kairui, Mi Xiaolu walked to Hang Yi's side, hugged him, and said deeply: "Brother Hang Yi, goodbye." β
Hang Yi didn't know why Mi Xiaolu said goodbye at this time, and he felt a little weird. However, his current mind was on this manuscript version of Homer's epic poems, and he did not have time to feel sleepy, so he said, "I'll come up in a moment." β
Mi Xiaolu finally glanced at Hang Yi affectionately and left with the rest of his companions.
The remaining 7 people went down to the institute with the "housekeeper". Several Siberian tigers, which had been turned into docile kittens by Mi Xiaolu, were still in place. Han Feng proposed to blow up this underground research institute, which could be regarded as letting Jing Xiaoran, Ruan Junxi and Liu Yujia rest here for a long time and rest in peace. But to do this, you have to wait until Hang Yi and the others return to the manor. Now, only a few Siberian tigers can be returned to nature, while others await the results of the translation in the estate.
A large circular elevator carried the group up with 4 tigers. Walking out of the passage and up the stairs, everyone finally returned to the surface world.
The rest rested in the living room, hydrated and fed, and after a big battle, they were all exhausted. Lei Ao and Han Feng even went back to their previous room to sleep. Others lie on the couch, their eyes closed. Ji Kairui took care of the "housekeeper", but he didn't dare to make a mistake.
Mi Xiaolu walked out of the manor's big 'gate' with 4 tigers. Everyone will only come back when he sends the tiger back to the mountains and forests, and they will not think that this is the last time many of them will see Mi Xiaolu.
Mi Xiaolu didn't tear out of his eyes until he walked out of the big 'door'.
He promised, he would leave.
Moreover, only he knows that the reason for his departure is not just because of "that incident" with Xinna.
He had another reason why he had to leave. Because of this reason, he will not regret the decision he made now, nor will he regret what he will do next, or even who he has become when he and Hang Yi meet again.
If he and Hang Yi can meet again.
Mi Xiaolu took a deep breath, dried his tears, and walked away without hesitation, walking with the 4 tigers.
(It was several hours after Hang Yi learned of Mi Xiaolu's departure.) οΌ
Inside the estate.
Han Feng and Lei Ao woke up from a big sleep, and saw that the people in the living room were still the same as before. They cooked something to eat. Waited for a few more hours.
Finally, about eleven hours later, Hang Yi, Lu Hua and Sun Yuchen, as well as the old scholars, came up together.
The companions all stood up, because they clearly saw that Hang Yi, Lu Hua, and Sun Yuchen were pale and shocked.
Without waiting for everyone to ask, Hang Yi said, "You can't know what is written on that ancient parchment scroll...... And, I know who the Old Gods are. β
