Chapter Ninety-Two: Black Eggs? Black Stone? (Collect!) )
It's not that Long Yang deliberately waited until this time to ask this question, it's that Long Yang has too many questions in his heart, he can only start asking fundamentally, this question is just the beginning.
Long Yang not only doubted Old Man She's identity, but also his age. Although Old Man She has an old face and a rickety figure, his actions and words reveal his suspicions. Makeup and disguise can temporarily hide a person's age, and it is obvious that Old Man She does not belong to either of the two.
"How old am I? Hehe! When Old Man She heard Long Yang's question, he smiled bitterly, containing too much helplessness and suffering.
"yes, how old are you?" Long Yang asked again.
"If you don't ask, I'll forget how old I am, hey!" Old man She looked at the sky with his eyes and let out a long sigh. It seems that Long Yang asked the right question, there is really a problem with Old Man She's age.
"I should be thirty years old this year." Old man She continued.
"Thirty? Then you? Although Long Yang was prepared, he was still very shocked. The old man in front of him was only thirty years old, how could he become so old? And his wife, who also looks like an old lady, must have had an accident.
"You're weird, aren't you? I'll tell you why. Old man She didn't seem to care about his age anymore, and he was still immersed in the grief of his wife's death.
Long Yang looked at the collapsed cave and remembered the murals in the cave. Since Old Man She was the first to discover the cave, he should know about the murals. There is also the secret mark on the wall of Old Man She's house, what is the purpose?
"When you first discovered the cave, were there any murals in the cave?" Long Yang asked.
"Yes, the mural appears when the oil lamp is lit, and the mural disappears when the oil lamp is extinguished, which is amazing." Old Man She's words verified the fact that the mural existed in the first place, and it was not the group of people who appeared after they came in, and it seems that they have been looking for this cave all along. In this way, the frescoes were destroyed by hand and foot when they left.
"And what's the secret mark on the ribbon on the north wall of your house?" Long Yang asked one by one.
"It's a small formation, used to spy on me. When you came to town, I brought you home to take your place as my son. But then I still didn't have the patience to let you go. I didn't know that when you came back several times, they found out about you, so I had to use a trick to lure you out of town and wait for you to get out. In fact, I also have selfish intentions, that is, I can let you go out safely to report the crime and save our family from the sea of suffering. "Old man She, oh, it's not an old man, it's still old She, Lao She will say how many times he has been in contact with Long Yang, no wonder he took Long Yang in and let Long Yang leave, it seems that his conscience is not completely extinguished.
"Do they have any specific requirements for finding a child?"
"Yes, they only have children under the age of ten. You're too old to meet the requirements. After I covered for you to leave, they insisted that I hand it over, and I used this reason to fool me. ”
"Under ten?"
"Yes, they just asked for people under the age of 10, and they didn't tell me anything else. But there must be special requirements, otherwise they would not have tested the children one by one. Lao She said affirmatively.
What are these people trying to do? What kind of children are they looking for? What are you going to do with your children? At the moment, none of these problems can be solved, because the people inside the cave have been evacuated.
By the way, how could they be willing to leave the cave they had been looking for?
"When did they leave?"
"Originally, they had already set up an ecstasy formation around Shezhen, wanting you to retreat. In addition, such a strange formation is enough to scare off ordinary people. But then, huh! They had to leave, they didn't have the confidence to stay here anymore. As she spoke, she suddenly showed a smug look.
"Is it because we've been here all along?"
"Just the three of you? It's not enough to make them so scared, aren't all your troops heading home! Lao She's expression at this time was indeed a little weird, and he actually had a feeling that the conspiracy had succeeded.
"What the hell is going on here?" Long Yang chased after him and continued to ask.
"They lost something important, and without that thing, they lost their confidence and became terrified. Ha ha! They are the lost dogs, fleeing from our place. "Lao She's performance is becoming more and more obvious, it seems that the loss of this thing is related to Lao She.
Hey? It won't be that Lao She stole their things. I think that at the beginning, Lao She was doing the work of stealing, and he was very good at doing this kind of thing. Also, his wife should have been tortured to death because of this, in order to force Lao She to find the whereabouts of things. What exactly is it? By the way, it should be the black stone the size of an egg. It is used to test children and should be something very important.
"Is it the black stone?" Long Yang didn't hesitate, and directly told Lao She the guess in his heart.
"How do you know?!" Lao She looked very shocked, stared at Long Yang and asked.
"I said I guessed, do you believe it?" Long Yang replied confidently.
"Guess?" Obviously, Lao She didn't believe Long Yang's words.
Regarding Lao She's performance, Long Yang didn't care. But why did Lao She keep hiding the matter of the black stone, which had to make Long Yang a little more vigilant.
"Is that thing a black egg or a black stone? What the hell is it? What does it do besides testing children? ”
"Oh, it's a black stone in the shape of an egg, and I don't know what it is." Lao She's words were ambiguous, obviously a little hidden. But it can also be seen that he did know the black stone and did steal it.
"Where is that black stone now?" Lao She's words are not true, Long Yang will not give him a chance to hide it.
"The stone? Well, you come with me. Lao She seemed to be a little hesitant, but he still decided to take Long Yang to find the black stone. His hesitation made Long Yang more cautious in his eyes.
Lao She took Long Yang crookedly, constantly walking through the woods and weeds. It can be seen from this that Lao She hides the black stone very secretly, and he also attaches great importance to this stone. It seems that the black stone has a very heavy weight in his heart, even if he loses his wife's life. Looking at it the other way, how could he easily hand over the black stone to Long Yang?
"Haven't you arrived yet?" Long Yang asked Lao She.
"Right ahead." Lao She pointed forward.
Following the direction pointed by Lao She, Long Yang saw a huge tree, five or six meters thick, with lush branches and leaves, covering everything nearby. Lao She actually hid the black stone here, in the location of the giant tree.
The two advanced to the bottom of the giant tree, and Lao She climbed up to the tree in two times and took a black box from the branch. The box is not large, fist-sized, and large enough to hold an egg-sized item.
After taking the box, Lao She generously handed it to Long Yang. "That's it, here you go!"
The more Lao She was like this, the more suspicious Long Yang became. I was shocked just now, but now I am extremely generous, and there must be a conspiracy in it. At present, Long Yang can only take the box, after all, he took the initiative to ask where the black stone went.
"Oh!" Although Long Yang had thought about it many times in his heart, he did not hesitate in his hand and took the box easily.
Long Yang took the box, but he was not in a hurry to open it, he wanted to observe Lao She's performance. Seeing that Long Yang had no follow-up action after taking the box, Lao She glanced at Long Yang inexplicably. "You're afraid there's a mechanism in the box?"
"No, I think something so important should be handed over to the police station. It's never too late to see it! Besides, everyone can watch together, so that they can have a testimony to each other. ”
"It seems that you are still suspicious of me and wary of me. Come, give me, I'll open. After Lao She finished speaking, he stretched out his hand to Long Yang to ask for the box.
Lao She raised his hand to open the box, and there was no accident.
Am I thinking too much? Long Yang pondered in his heart and looked at the black stone inside the box.
Lao She didn't lie, the box was indeed a black stone in the shape of an egg, pitch black and shiny, shining with a strange light. After Long Yang glanced at it, his eyes were attracted by the black stone, and he couldn't take his eyes off it.
The black stone Buddha will actively attract people, and Long Yang stared at it and slowly approached it. If outsiders were present, they could see that Long Yang was completely controlled by the black stone as if he had lost consciousness. When Long Yang approached the black stone, he couldn't help but reach out and touch it. The hand is getting closer and closer to the stone, and it is about to come into contact. Long Yang's mind suddenly woke up, quickly sobered up, and immediately retracted his hand.
"I know you're uneasy!" Long Yang looked at Lao She beside him and said angrily.
"I really didn't expect you to come to your senses." The old She beside him pressed forward step by step, his expression was hideous, as if he was crazy.
"What makes you give up your son, what makes you give up your wife, what makes you do this." Long Yang was not afraid, did not back down, and poured out everything he thought and Lao She said. So far, Longyang wants to get the result, get the conclusion, and get the reason for what Lao She is for.
"That's it!" Lao She held the box in his hand and laughed wildly.
"That's it, it's what made me what I am now, made me an old man, an old shell!" After Lao She finished speaking, he threw the black stone in his hand out, and no longer held it in his hand like a treasure.
Stones, black stones can make people old?
Long Yang didn't know why, looking at Lao She's appearance, what he said was not bad, it should be the reason for the black stone.
"What the hell is going on?"
"This stone!" Lao She finally couldn't bear the pressure in his heart, and completely poured out his dissatisfaction and resentment.
"It is this stone that robs me and my wife of youth and absorbs our vitality and vitality."
This stone has such a power that it can absorb people's vitality! No wonder Long Yang couldn't help but touch it after seeing it, once he touched it, wouldn't he be sucked away by it? Long Yang patted his chest, and he was also a little afraid.
"What the hell is going on?" Things are not so simple anymore, Lao She has hidden too many things, if he doesn't investigate to the end now, I'm afraid there will never be results.
"This black stone is the center of the formation, it can absorb all the vitality and energy. My wife and I were killed by him and became the way we are. It's not only a tool for testing, it's also a tool for absorbing energy, it's amazing, it's very capable, it can make me a king, a hegemon who dominates the world. Lao She was almost crazy, constantly repeating the effect of the black stone, reaching for the sky with both hands, desperately grasping something.
"What can it do?" Long Yang calmly picked up the black stone, put it in a box, closed it, and held it in his hand.
"Since it can absorb energy, it can release energy, it can make me younger, resurrect my wife, let me take revenge, and let these people die!"
A young life, an old body, an arrogant man, a lost heart.
"Don't think too much, it's all in the past, what you want is right in front of you, and what you lose is also around you. This stone is a stone, it doesn't represent anything, it's useless to you. Now, the black stone is in my hand, if you want it, take it! ”
Long Yang stretched out his hand, and in his hand was a box, and inside the box was a stone, a black stone, the size of an egg.
