Chapter 230: Me?
The people of Daomen and I walked down the cave, although we encountered mountain ghosts on the way, fortunately, there was no danger.
In the continuous march, we heard someone singing children's songs, and following the singing, we found the guide of the scientific expedition team - Lao Chentou.
I saw him digging something in the ground, found us, and after turning around, I saw that although more than 30 years have passed, the appearance of the old Chen Tou has basically not changed, and there is no sign of aging, just because he is leaning around, he seems to have no energy.
And after a long period of cave life, his eyesight deteriorated, and through his sense of smell, he discovered me and called me his great-grandson.
But he is obviously in this cave, and he has never been outside, how can he know about Chen Ting and my uncle, and my successor to my uncle is also a recent thing, how did he know.
And I hadn't seen him before, but he said that I was just about to leave, and that he had mistaken me for someone else because of his sense of smell.
Old Chen still greeted me with a smile on his face, and I asked tentatively, "You call me great-grandson, do you know who I am?" ”
Old Chen nodded and said, "Of course you know, aren't you Song Hao from Song Wan?" ”
How is that possible, it doesn't make sense at all.
The people from the Dao Gate next to him were also full of questions, and the Daoist of the Royal Rat looked at me and asked, "Have you ever passed through this Gate of Hell?" ”
I shook my head, I didn't have that ability, and said, "With you, it's the first time I've entered here." ”
Dr. Liang asked, "Did your doppelganger come here just now?" ”
I still shook my head, but looking at Dr. Leung's face, he didn't believe me too much.
After all, I and the people of the Dao Sect are only halfway through the alliance, and my clone is following the Gen Organization in front, and they don't know what they have experienced.
They must have suspected that maybe my clone had been here and was just hiding it from them.
I must clear my suspicion, otherwise there will be a gap with the Daomen, and it will be difficult to do many things, especially Zhao Xiaoxue is still by my side, if there is something, the people of the Daomen can help take care of it.
Since Lao Chen said that I had been here, but I really didn't, it was not as Aunt Dao said, someone disguised himself and pretended to be me.
But my status is low, how can anyone care?
Maybe someone else is taking advantage of this?
Instead of thinking about it myself, I should take the initiative to ask Lao Chen.
I asked, "How do you know my name and how do you say I've been here?" ”
Lao Chen Tou was a little puzzled, and then smiled: "You kid, don't look at my age, but I'm not so forgetful, didn't you come here just now, and you deliberately woke me up, all of this was told by you, let me sing nursery rhymes, it's only been a long time, how could I forget it so quickly." ”
After saying that, he looked at me with a smile.
Daomen's suspicions also deepened, and they all looked at me, hoping that I would explain.
But I'm really confused, I've never been here at all, someone must be pretending to be me.
But it's a little inexplicable, if it's really someone pretending, why does he even know such a private thing as my uncle and Chen Ting.
Could it be that Lao Chen Tou stayed here, and what special abilities did he have, such as being able to read memories unconsciously?
Lao Chen Tou stretched out his hand again, grabbed my hand and said: "You were in a hurry just now, I didn't entertain you well, you entered here, you can't get out at all, although you are my heavy son, but I have no choice, I just advised you, you didn't listen at all." Now that I'm back, follow me, at least I don't have to be a lonely ghost in the cave. Wait until the seventh and a half months, when the ghost gate of the Midyear Festival is wide open, you will enter hell and be reincarnated as a human being. ”
I hurriedly shook my hand and said, "I'm not a ghost, I'm still human." ”
Old Chen Tou lifted the lantern on the ground, shone it at me, looked at the shadow on the ground for a long time, and said, "You are really a living person, why are you here?" I thought you were dead and got here. ”
As he spoke, he raised the lantern to the side again, shone it on Dr. Liang and the others, and said with a frightened face, "You are all alive, why are you here?" ”
I feel that Old Chen is a little crazy, and just now when our flashlight shone on him, he still has a shadow, which proves that he is also a living person.
I asked, "Why can't we come in if you're not also alive?" ”
When Lao Chen was asked, he choked for a while, then sighed and said, "I am different from you, I am a slave of the mountain god, and I can only live here forever." You are living and you should not be here. Let's find a way to leave. ”
I hurriedly asked, "Didn't you say there was no way to get out of here?" Why are you letting us go now? ”
Old Chen Tou turned around and said, "I thought you were dead ghosts, and when ghosts enter here, they will be restrained. ”
I continued, "What about the living?" Can the living get out? ”
Old Chen shook his head and said, "I don't know. ”
Dr. Liang then said, "You are lying, you must know, because you came in with the scientific expedition team back then, and they left here later, so you must know how to get out." ”
Old Chen Tou seemed to recall the memories of the past, shook his head and said bitterly: "I don't know, they abandoned me, the mountain god said, no one can leave, even if they go out, they are just expelling the shell." ”
Lao Chen's speech was inconsistent, and I couldn't tell which of his sentences was true, which was false, and it could all be false.
At this time, Lao Chen Tou faced my direction and whispered: "How you get in, how you get out, if you can't get out, come to me again, I can only hand you over to the mountain god, please let you go to hell, so that you won't be trapped here forever." ”
After saying that, he took the lantern and groped to the side.
I shouted, "Why did you stay here back then, and you didn't die, and said that you were a slave of the mountain god?" ”
Lao Chen Tou didn't answer, but just touched the corner, there was not only a hoe there, but also a bucket, Lao Chen Tou must have dug something here just now and put it in the bucket.
Old Chen Tou lifted the bucket, held the lantern, and prepared to leave.
I hurriedly stepped forward, grabbed him, and said, "I have to call your grandfather, you must tell me about the past, now that we have entered here, we are here for the mountain god, and I guess you also know that some people covet the power of the gate of hell." ”
Old Chen pushed my hand away, and he was ready to continue walking.
I reached out my other hand, ready to grab the barrel, trying to hold him again.
As a result, before his hand reached the bucket, Lao Chen hurriedly shouted: "Don't touch the bucket, it's dangerous." ”
I hurriedly withdrew my outstretched hand.
Dr. Liang approached and shone the light of the flashlight into the bucket, only to see that it was full of white nematodes, dense, squirming constantly, and very nauseous.
The old man Chen dug in the ground just now turned out to be a nematode in the soil, and he also knew how powerful the nematode was, so he told me to be careful.
I just don't understand, why did he want this thing, he stayed in the cave for so long, did he live by eating nematodes?
I looked at the nematode and asked, "You're not going to eat this all the time here, are you?" ”
Old Chen Tou looked at me and said, "How can this thing be eaten, if it enters the stomach, don't pierce the stomach through the intestines." ”
"And what are you digging up this stuff for?"
"Fertilizer."
Fertilizer, I didn't expect Lao Chen Tou to say this, and continued to ask: "What fertilizer?" ”
Old Chen Tou looked into the depths of the cave and said, "The fertilizer of the big tree." ”
I felt sick, could it be that the forest just now was full of these nematodes?
After speaking, Lao Chen Tou carried the bucket and walked deeper into the cave.
I looked at Dr. Leung, who was also looking at me, and I asked, "Keep up?" ”
Dr. Liang nodded, and everyone turned on their flashlights and followed behind Lao Chen.
Lao Chen found out that we were following and persuaded us a few times, but it had no effect, so he didn't say anything more.
After walking a few hundred steps, gradually, I felt as if I heard the wind.
But now in the cave, there is no wind blowing in, and I don't feel it. At this time, when he came to the corner, the old Chen Tou in front stopped and said, "Don't follow me again, it's too dangerous." ”
With that, he took the bucket and walked into the corner.
How could we give up and continue to keep up, and then we heard that the so-called wind came from the other side of the corner.
Dr. Liang beckoned everyone to be cautious, and together we walked in.
In front, the space in front of me is very large, like an underground palace, and in the middle, there is a huge tree.
The tree seemed to be alive, waving its branches and making gusts of wind.
A living tree!
