By the time they crawled back from the ground, it was already evening.

All in all, today is only a long day outside, but I feel like it's been a long time.

Maybe it's because I've encountered too many things that make me feel indescribably tired, but I don't have that groggy feeling, I just feel irritable.

I asked the old man Situ what was going on, but he didn't say it clearly, but just said that he asked him to come and pick me up by name, and by the way, take me back to Sichuan and clean up the mess for the old man.

Old man, mess.

Together, these two words are trouble.

If you want to say that the old man went out to make trouble, and left a pile of messes for me to clean up, then I must understand.

The problem is that the old man is seriously ill in bed, what else can he do?

It can't be a little nurse, or a cigarette and a fight, or a fight with the doctor and nurse to lower people's heads, right?

Walking on the way back to Yi Daxishen's house, I didn't ask Situ, I smoked vigorously, I only felt inexplicably irritable, and the anxiety in my heart was about to condense into substance, and I was so anxious that I was panicked.

"Brother Situ, what's going on?" Qibao handed him a cigarette and asked with a worried face, "Is it Master Shen who has an accident?" Let the enemy do it? ”

Hearing him ask, I didn't squeak and looked at Situ quietly.

"I'll talk about it later." Situ smiled and patted Qibao on the shoulder: "Don't ask about this, let's talk about something else to relax, don't make the atmosphere so dignified." ”

"Take the car back?" I asked.

"I'm coming by car, and if the traffic is not jammed and the road conditions are good, I can get there tomorrow morning." Situ replied.

The fat uncle walked to the side and nodded incessantly: "Since there is trouble, then don't delay, go back and pack your things, you can leave, and if you need help, let someone come over and say hello." ”

In fact, I know that the fat uncle is also very curious about the old man's affairs, but he didn't ask a word from beginning to end, probably because he was afraid of embarrassment.

Not even our own family, let alone outsiders?

"It's okay, no need to help." Situ smiled: "Uncle, you can take care of Daxi God with peace of mind, and leave other things to us to worry about." ”

"You know?" I asked.

"We talked to each other a few years ago, and my family is still friends with Daxishen." Situ smiled: "Dude, I heard them say that you were dragged into the ground by two octopus tentacles, what the hell is that?" ”

"I don't know." I shook my head: "I don't know how to describe it to you, but it's certainly a living creature, not a sin." ”

"Living creatures?" Situ was stunned: "If it's a living thing, if you get rid of it, you should keep the corpse, right?" Why didn't we see that? ”

"I don't have that much ability." I sighed: "Don't say it's me, even my grandfather doesn't have that much ability to clean it up." ”

"According to my understanding of your descending door, you should be familiar with dealing with living creatures, and other gentlemen of the Dharma sect are not good at this" Situ looked at me suspiciously: "What does that monster look like?" Really a big octopus? ”

I shrugged my shoulders and said something in very simple terms, about what was going on in the cavern underground.

As for the illusions that the brain monster took me to see, I didn't mention a word.

Listening to me say this, not only Situ didn't believe it, but even Qibao thought I was bragging.

"Can a living creature be transformed? You've watched too many movies, haven't you? Qibao looked at me with a puzzled expression: "That thing still got rid of your corpse qi?" Just because you helped it? ”

"That's right." I nodded: "The death of the fourth child has nothing to do with it, it was done by those serious sins outside." ”

"I seem to have seen that monster you said somewhere" Situ muttered, as if he remembered something, his expression was a little confused: "It seems to be in a book, it is a religious book that is out of the way, a ball of meat with countless tentacles, and there is such an illustration." ”

"Which dynasty's book?" Shippo asked curiously.

"Song Dynasty." Situ scratched his head: "I should be not mistaken, it is a book of a local cult in the Song Dynasty, saying that that monster is the ancestor of heaven and earth, and it is the same as the words engraved on the ground in the cave, as if they are still worshipped and worshipped." ”

"Worship? Consecrate? The fat uncle frowned: "This place can't be made by those cult members, right?" The nine sins are beating gongs and drums to walk the mountain, which is similar to the method used by some Dharma schools to worship the gods. ”

"I always thought it was fake, because there can't be anything like science fiction in this world." Situ sighed: "But when I heard Xiao Shen's experience, it seems to be true." ”

"Did it really melt into the mountains and fly away?" Shippo asked me.

"The brain monster didn't fly away, I can't say for sure, but it did melt into the mountains in the end, and it became transparent, and even if it flew out, no one could see it."

Situ is an authentic intellectual, according to Chen Qiuyan, he came out of the research institute where he studied, and he is still an absolute top student.

But the more thoroughly certain things are studied, the more "doubts" Situ can think of, or the points that he can't think of at all.

Along the way, his expression was as if he was constipated, and he was uncomfortable.

But I think it's not that Situ doesn't believe it, but he is very curious about this kind of thing, and he seems to have an urge to see that brain monster with his own eyes.

"Brother Situ, since you also saw those words engraved on the ground, you don't have any ideas?" I smiled and said, "Taigu, the old days, this should be a special period in ancient times, right?" ”

"You believe this?" Situ glanced at me.

Without waiting for me to speak, Situ sighed: "Don't say it, you really have to believe this, although that period seems to have been mythologized by later generations, it is undeniable that there is a certain possibility of existence." ”

"You've studied this too?" I asked tentatively.

"Some, but not much." Situ sighed: "I didn't even understand that little thing in the ancient period, let alone that ancient period."

As he spoke, Situ lit a cigarette and took two puffs.

"My mentor mentioned to me that there are also relevant records abroad about the primeval period, and the remains of the Sumerian civilization have been unearthed in southeastern Iraq, and there are murals about the primeval period in it, and even the murals of Pangu was born in chaos and opened the world, but unfortunately that place is too far away from us, and many things can't be obtained."

"Sumerian civilization?" Qibao scratched his head: "What's that?" ”

"It's an ancient dynasty." Situ said with a smile: "About seven thousand years ago, I heard that those Sumerians are all black-haired, I can't imagine that we Chinese branch out." ”

On the issue of Sumerian civilization, Situ did not explain more to Qibao, but chatted with me.

"The Sumerians seem to worship the monsters of primeval life, and they call them kings of the old times, saying that they all live at the end of time, a land where life originated, but where there is more chaos than chaos." Situ whispered: "These old kings are immortal, and in that world, only they can do this"

When I heard these words, I couldn't help but shudder, because I remembered that in the illusion, the brain monster had said the same thing to me.

The end of time, the origin of life, is more chaotic than chaos.

"Except for those old days, everything else will turn to dust, even time will disappear, and even death will die completely, right?" I subconsciously asked, repeating the words of the brain monster.

"How do you know ?!!" Situ looked at me in surprise and his eyes widened: "These words were recorded in Sumerian script in the mural, have you seen it too??" ”

I shook my head and said I hadn't seen it, but I just followed your words and spread my mind a little.

"If you have time, shall we talk privately?" Situ seemed to have discovered something, and looked at me excitedly.

"Let's settle my grandfather's affairs first." I sighed.
