But there is no other way but to wait.

Before, Granny Gu and the madman talked a lot, I asked Granny Gu what came out, Granny Gu sighed helplessly, saying that the madman has lost the ability to express himself, sometimes you ask him, he also answers, but what comes out of his mouth is all "Uh-huh-ahhh

Now when I see that madman, I also feel a headache, I don't know what to do with him at all, I don't take him to go on, I don't leave him behind, it's very troublesome.

The madman was still a little afraid of us, and he only cowered in the corner, not daring to approach us. Knowing that everyone had taken out canned food and biscuits and was ready to eat, he slowly came over, and he didn't dare to get too close, so he squatted two or three meters away from us and stared at us.

I picked up a can of meat and shook it at him: "Come on, let's eat some together." ”

The madman seemed a little tempted, but he still didn't dare to come, so I opened the cover and put the can on the ground, and he would come and eat it whenever he wanted.

After only two or three minutes, the madman finally did not resist the temptation of food, and crawled on all fours, this time he did not use light physical effort, but when his limbs moved on the ground, the movement was very light, so light that people could not detect the slightest sound. If I hadn't expected him to come early in the morning, I would have been mentally prepared for the sudden appearance of him next to me, which would have really startled me.

Probably because he had just eaten a little something, the madman now eats a lot more gentlely, and he can faintly see a little calm and capable style.

I squinted at the madman's every move, and thought to myself, when this person was not crazy, maybe he was also a figure with a head and a face.

Bai Laogou handed over a pack of compressed biscuits, and when I reached out to pick it up, my eyes happened to fall on He Wenqin's side.

Before sitting down to eat, Lao Ruan put a cold light on the ground, the light was not bright, but it was enough to illuminate He Wenqin's face.

At that time, the expression on He Wenqin's face was indescribably weird, like consternation, but after the cold light spread on his face, it made that expression look very hideous.

He stared at the madman in a daze, and every time the madman took out a piece of meat from the can, He Wenqin's eyes widened and widened, as if he had seen a ghost.

I felt that He Wenqin was not quite right, and I was about to ask him what was going on, when I heard him suddenly shout: "Grandpa? ”

Who does it call grandpa?

It took me a long time to react before I realized that He Wenqin was shouting at the madman.

Are you kidding. Grandfather? He Wenqin is nearly 70 years old this year, and he calls a person who looks like he is in his early fifties grandpa.

This scene was so weird that everyone stopped what they were doing and stared at He Wenqin.

I even suspect that he may have fallen into the evil spirit.

He Wenqin didn't care about the eyes of other people, and rushed to the madman like a gust of wind, but his sudden action made the madman feel frightened, and before He Wenqin touched him, he shrank suddenly, and he didn't know what kind of footwork he used, so he retreated to the corner of the room in the blink of an eye.

He Wenqin still wanted to follow, but I grabbed him: "Old He, are you okay?" ”

"I remembered who he was, I used to eat with him when I was young, and now I still have a picture of him at home, he is my grandfather."

He Wenqin was so excited that he couldn't help himself, and his tone couldn't help but be a little chaotic when he spoke.

I can't remind him: "He Lao, are you tall and thin this year?" ”

"Sixty-eight, what's wrong?"

"Look closely, how old he is."

Hearing me say this, He Wenqin was stunned, just now I thought that he might have been evil, or he was wrong, but now looking at his shocked expression, I feel that things are not so simple.

Bai Laogou may also have noticed that something was wrong, and he also came up to comfort He Wenqin, first stabilized his emotions, and asked him some questions.

Listening to He Wenqin's meaning, at the moment this madman and his grandfather are simply carved out of the same mold, no, it is not accurate to say this, what he said is that this madman must be his grandfather, He Wenqin heard his father say when he was a child, his grandfather's left little toe was broken once, and it looked like there were four sections, one more than a normal person, and the left little toe of a madman was exactly four sections.

Two people may look very similar, but the chances of such special characteristics being exactly the same are too low.

In addition, the madman has reached the realm of transformation whether it is body or fingering, before He Wenqin said that the He family has not produced such a master for fifty years, this statement is not accurate, it should be said that from the establishment of the He family to the present, there has only been one such a powerful character, which is He Wenqin's grandfather.

When I heard him say this, I felt even more wrong, so I asked him, "What is your grandfather's name?" ”

He Wenqin said three words: "He Baoyuan." ”

One of the two thieves who crisscrossed Xiangxi back then, He Baoyuan!

But didn't Bai Laogou say that He Baoyuan died as early as the Battle of Xiangxi in 945, even if He Baoyuan didn't die at that time, he would have lived to be nearly one hundred and ten years old now, but this madman in front of him was in his early fifties.

Bai Laogou and I looked at each other, no one could speak, He Wenqin cautiously approached the madman, looking like he wanted to speak, but he couldn't say anything.

Later, Bai Laogou seemed to think of something, turned his head to look at the madman, and said sullenly: "At the time of the Battle of Xiangxi, He Baoyuan was fifty-three years old, and he was just old enough to match this madman. ”

I scolded the white old dog in my heart for, listen to what he meant, He Baoyuan hasn't aged since 945, isn't this nonsense?

But looking back, I think this kind of thing may really happen, isn't this the case with Wu Lin, since he followed the old scholar into the quadruple space once, he has not continued to age, and he still maintains the appearance of being in his twenties, and when I first met Wu Lin, Wu Lin's personality was also very unstable, always changing back and forth, so that I once thought that he was suffering from a serious split personality.

Thinking of this, I slowly approached the madman and asked him in a soft tone as much as possible: "Have you ever entered the fourfold space, nodded when you entered, and shook your head if you haven't entered." ”

The madman looked at me dumbfounded, not responding.

I sighed in my heart, and after a while, I asked him again: "Your name, is it He Baoyuan?" ”

It's okay not to ask so, who would have thought that as soon as the three words "He Baoyuan" blurted out, the madman hugged his knees and trembled as if he was frightened.

He Wenqin probably wanted to comfort him, so he raised a hand and wanted to touch his shoulder, but before he could touch it, the madman let out a miserable scream of "whoa-" and turned his head and rushed into the shadows that could not be illuminated by the cold light.

From then on, the madman became more and more afraid of us, and no one could get close to him, and as soon as he got close to him, he ran away, and even Granny Gu could not get even half a step closer to him.

This madman ran too fast, no one could keep up with him, everyone really had no choice but to let him go first, Bai Laogou and Lao Ruan stayed at the staircase early after eating, for fear that the madman would run away.

In the middle of the night, I heard someone rummaging through my backpack in my sleep, and when I glanced at it with the sand, I saw that the madman was bending his waist and carefully pulling cans out of my backpack.

The night watchman in this class is Lin'er, she may not have kept vigil before, she is not very comfortable, and now she is leaning on the staircase and falling asleep.

It is said that the madman steals something to eat in the middle of the night, but it is also expected by me, so before going to bed, I put the magic weapon in my pocket in advance to prevent him from taking it by mistake, but I don't know why, looking at the back of the madman squatting in front of the backpack, I always feel that something is wrong.

After a while, I realized what was wrong.

The madman behaved too much like a normal person, when he took something out of his backpack, he would raise his hand and light it to see what was written on the skin of the can, before he had always cowered, but now his back was straight, and his every move was very orderly.

Thinking of this, my mind cleared up, and I got up from the ground in a circle, grabbed the flashlight, and shot a light into the madman's face.

When I was so illuminated by the light, I saw that he was still cowering, and there was nothing in his hand that could shine.

He turned his head in horror, and his pupils were still not significantly narrowed by the light, which was a direct manifestation of the damage to the three souls and seven spirits, and he couldn't pretend to be it.

Could it be that I was wrong just now?

It's not that there is no such possibility, just now I was half-asleep, my brain is not very clear, and I am a little suspicious of crazy people, it is indeed possible to see some unreal dreams in the middle of the awakening.

Although I thought so, I still had a pimple in my heart, and I simply didn't dare to sleep anymore, so I beckoned Lin'er to go and rest first, while I sat at the staircase and stared at the madman for most of the night.

Aside from the occasional steal of cans from my backpack, there's nothing unusual about him.

But I don't know why, but I always felt that the scene I saw before didn't look like a hallucination.

After several days of trekking on the mountain road, I was finally able to sleep in a sheltered place for the night, although the humidity was still heavy, but at least the ground was not as inhospitable as in the forest, and everyone except me slept beautifully this night, and it was not until ten o'clock the next morning that they got up one after another.

I beckoned everyone to hurry up and eat something, and then quickly packed up the things that should be packed, and when it was one o'clock at noon, I quickly gathered in front of the dragon box in the eight towns, grabbed the coffin lid with both hands, and tried to lift it.

This time, it didn't take much effort for the coffin lid to open a gap, and only the cold wind came out of the gap, and I couldn't feel the evil qi inside.

Since the wind came out, it meant that the internal space of the Zhenlong box was very large, so I carefully leaned into the crack and injected the flashlight into it.
