"Uncle A? Is there something wrong? I asked, pretending to be gone.

He looked at me, then at Nagisa You, who was eating on the table, and said, "My people just saw Luo Qiong bring something out of the cargo hold, and want to see what it is?" ”

I glanced at Nagisa and said, "It's just a small thing, don't bother with it, I'll take care of it." ”

"In this state, I think it's better to leave this dangerous thing to us. This should be a demon, you have a demon in secret, I think you have to explain this matter to Sha Lao. Uncle Jia's character is absolutely impartial law enforcement, never a trace of ambiguity, Luo Qiong's face was pale, and he shouted: "What do you mean? Do you suspect us of fornicating with the demon clan? It's ridiculous, if it weren't for us, a lot of people on this ship would have died! ”

"One is one, two is two, since Sha Lao has asked me to be responsible for the safety of the ship, I will enforce the law impartially, please here. In addition, we will also collect this demon. His people walked into the cabin, Luo Qiong wanted to resist a little impulsively, but I held down my wrist, I shook my head and said, "I happen to have something to find Sha Lao, let's go." ”

Sha Lao's cabin is on another ship, it is also the largest and strongest ship in the center of the fleet, the cabin is very large, the headquarters of the medical team is next to Sha Lao's cabin, I stood at the door and waited, and after a while the cabin door opened from the inside, I saw the dim room, the European-style sofa did not look any bright, the table and corner were full of books, and there was an old-fashioned clock hanging on the wall. Sha Lao was lying on the bed, hanging water, and several doctors in white coats were walking back and forth around Sha Lao.

"Wait a minute, Sha Lao is undergoing a daily physical examination." The guard next to him said.

The whole body was full of tubes, and it looked like a rescue, and it was like a check-up, or it had to be done every day, and in this house that wasn't very well-lit, it felt like a huge coffin. I stood by the door, and even though I hadn't even walked in, I could clearly feel the twilight coming in front of me.

After waiting for nearly an hour, the doctor put away the equipment, Sha Lao got up from the bed, the clothes on the boat, it was the first time I saw Sha Lao naked with his upper body, faded his majestic aura, like any old man walking on the side of the road, his weak body, the skin that drooped down without much flesh, and the shocking scars on his back, proving the road he had traveled and his current weakness.

He was in a boat shirt, and the secretary next to him came up to put on a white suit for him, combed his somewhat messy silver hair, and when he turned around again, he looked a little better, and beckoned me when he saw me, and I was able to walk in.

The sofa is very soft, and the full set of European-style furniture should look foreign, but at this moment it seems a little heavy. There was a cold coffee on the coffee table in front of us, and the secretary immediately changed it for us, and then retreated to a change. The neatly dressed Sha Lao seemed to have changed back to his original state, he grabbed the end of the cane with his hand, and said calmly: "Jia Yi told me on the phone, you caught a little demon who can speak human words, but you didn't bring it to me, why?" ”

"Because there's no need, I've already asked what I should ask." I replied without fear.

"Oh, that should tell me what you know from that little goblin?" He took a sip of his coffee and moved slowly.

"I know that the direction we are sailing is not to go straight to the Immortal Mountain, and I also know that we are approaching a huge demon mountain. These are sufficient. I don't think you don't know, we're not looking for immortals, we're going to attack the Demon Mountain, right? I opened my mouth to ask, and my tone unconsciously became a little heavier, and even the secretary next to me coughed at me.

Sha Lao waved his hand, and the secretary walked out very interestingly, closed the door, and the two of us were left in the room.

"Have you ever considered that demons are treacherous and cunning, and they may be deceiving you."

"I don't think it has the guts. But what I don't understand is why you are so obsessed with the Immortal Mountain Project? Last time I asked you the reason, but you didn't say, this time I ask you to tell me why you must go to Xianshan, give me a reason. ”

"I don't tell you because it's not time for you to know. But you keep asking, I'll tell you a story. He took another sip of coffee, and I noticed the red blood on the edge of the coffee cup, and he put down the cup and said, "In the south of China, there is a cowherd baby, there are five siblings in the family, the parents are very hard, the eldest son has no money to study, and he doesn't even have a decent clothes, but he is very sensible, and he will do a lot of things for the family, and take care of the younger siblings who are waiting to be fed like chicks." Only when it rains, when my parents don't go out to the fields at home, they will sneak to the only private school in the village in the rain to secretly watch and study, so as to satisfy their inner curiosity. Such a child, perhaps in the eyes of many people, will be like this all his life, and he will be a farmer when he grows up, and he will not be able to become a big man. But unexpectedly, war broke out before he became an adult, and their village was quickly overrun, and when the village was breached, he hid in the family cellar with a group of younger siblings. But there was nothing to eat, and the younger brothers and sisters were even crying with hunger, so he had no choice but to sneak out at night to find food. Most of the people in the village died. The child was frightened, and knew that he could not stay in the village, so he groped his way out of the village, trying to find something to eat in the fields or mountains. Unexpectedly, on the highest hill behind the village, he saw a white light, a very strong light, and he heard that there were immortals in that mountain. If there really is an immortal, maybe he can save his younger siblings and the whole village. So he climbed to the top of the hill and saw a man standing in the white light. The child knelt down without even seeing the other person's appearance, hoping that he would save the village. It's a pity that that person disappeared without even leaving a word. Exhausted and hungry, the child fainted and fell to the ground, and when he woke up again, it had been several days, and he hurried back to the village despite his physical discomfort, and when he opened the cellar, he found that his younger siblings hiding in the cellar had starved to death, and two others ran out of hunger and were found nailed to the wall. The cruel reality made the child unconscious again, and when he woke up again, the village had already been taken by his own troops. His own army found the child in the rubble who was dying of starvation and saved his life. And that family, that village, he was the only survivor. ”

I listened in silence to Sha Lao's chatter, and then asked, "That survivor is you, right?" This story is your story......"

"You ask me why I have to carry out the Immortal Mountain Project, and I can tell you the answer, and if you want to oppose me or stop me after hearing this answer, then I will lock you up until the Immortal Mountain Project is over. But if you try to resist, I'll probably let Koichi kill you. There will be such an ending, do you still want to listen to it? ”

Without the slightest hesitation, I asked, "Say it." ”

Sha Lao lit a cigarette and smiled, "As you can see and know, I'm dying." The doctor said that with the current level of medical care, if I didn't get the most advanced treatment at a big hospital, including chemotherapy, radioactive materials and so on, I would die. But I rejected their offer, and I told them that they only needed to tell me the time and try to delay my death. People will always do what they want to do when they are dying, whether they are willful or have a strange temper. Anyway, I'm dying, so what can't I do? The place we are going to is indeed the Immortal Mountain, but in the long past, the Beidou Tianzun gave up this dojo before it was occupied by the demon clan. But the core part of the city, that is, the place where the Beidou Tianzun meditated, is a zone that the demon clan can never approach, and it is said that immortals have the ability to bring the dead back to life, and I want to go to the place where the Beidou Tianzun meditated, and ask him to show up with the law of the gods, and then let him resurrect my dead brothers and sisters. ”

"Are you crazy?" The moment Sha Lao finished speaking, I almost blurted out such a sentence.
