Chapter 136: Mysterious Old Man
As a soldier, Lu Zhanting is extremely sensitive to danger, Xia Wanqing sat in the co-pilot, only feeling that she was five meters away in front of her, and she couldn't see anything clearly.
Occasionally, a car passes by, as if it came out of thin air.
Along the way, Xia Wanqing felt a little apprehensive, and I didn't know why.
When I was about to reach 25 Fa Yuen Street, there was a long stone staircase in front of me, and the car could not drive up, so I had to climb the stairs.
Xia Wanqing said to Lu Zhanting: "You wait for me in the car, I'll come when I go." ”
"I'll go with you."
"No, I want to go alone."
"I'm afraid you're in any danger."
"No, it's a cemetery over there, what's the danger?"
Xia Wanqing comforted him.
Yes, the cemetery is a resting place for the dead, and it is not advisable to make loud noises so as not to disturb those who have died.
Lu Zhanting had no choice but to agree: "Then you should be more careful." ”
His eyes were full of concern.
Xia Wanqing felt a warm current in her heart, opened the door and got out of the car.
She looked up at the stone steps, which were dark and dark, as if they had been washed because of the foggy day, and emitted a faint light.
Ascending the stone steps, the summer evening quickly melted into the thick fog.
According to the nature of fog, the longer you stay in the fog, the more bad it is for people's health, which is a natural phenomenon composed of dust and particles, containing substances that are not good for health.
Xia Wanqing covered her nose with one hand, groped her way forward in the fog, and finally came to a big black iron gate.
There are strange animal heads on the iron gates, like winged lions.
If Xia Wanqing guessed correctly, this should be the head of an ancient legendary monster named Sphinx, and the riddle it proposes represents fear and temptation.
This is the same for Xia Wanqing, she wants to meet Cao Sue to see if she can find a way to cure Jade Hibiscus, and at the same time, she is also afraid of the coldness after entering the cemetery.
A medical student shouldn't be afraid of any ghosts, but there is always an eerie feeling that hangs over here.
Xia Wanqing plucked up her courage, stood in front of the big iron gate, and shouted inside: "Is anyone there?" ”
I don't know how many times I shouted, and finally the big iron door opened silently by itself.
Xia Wanqing was startled, she really didn't expect that the door would open by itself.
Following the open door, Xia Wanqing walked in.
In front of me is the road to the mountain, and on the mountain, there are cemeteries, where the deceased rest.
Xia Wanqing remembered that the workshop responsible for guarding the cemetery was in the small bungalow on the left side of the cemetery.
With her memory, Xia Wanqing came to the small bungalow, stood at the door and asked softly, "Is anyone there?" ”
"Who?" Finally, an old voice replied.
"It's me, I'm here to find Cao Suo."
The door of the small bungalow finally opened, and out came an old man in his fifties, with a lot of folds on his face.
Xia Wanqing recognized him, it was Cao Sue who met on a rainy day.
The old man also seemed to be waiting for Xia Wanqing's arrival, and when he saw her, he said firmly: "You are finally here." ”
"How did you know I was coming?"
"I just know, come in."
The old man said that, and entered the room first.
Xia Wanqing was a little hesitant, but still followed him into the room.
This is indeed an ordinary worker's room, with shovels and hoes, etc., which are placed not far from the door, so that the old man can occasionally go to help people build graves.
Xia Wanqing looked at the furnishings in the house and didn't see anything different.
But the old man smiled strangely at her, and said to her, "Come with me, it's not as simple as you think." ”
