Chapter 14: The Old Man of the Cave
A group of six of us stood at the foot of the cliff, and the old five took a puff of cigarette and took a step forward: "Senior, we brought you the person you wanted, this one, you promise to be satisfied!" ”
Chai Lao Wu's voice was transparent and clear, and the sound was not loud, but the sound was in his ears, and he should have used his internal strength.
After waiting for a while, there was a yawn in the cave, and then a gray figure appeared at the entrance of the cave: "Ahem...... You guys again? Who were you looking for? ”
"This young man, surnamed Gu, I guess your old man should have heard of it, right?" Chai Lao Wu replied with a smile.
The gray shadow was silent for a moment, and then said, "Let that kid come up." ”
Chai Lao Wu turned his head to look at me: "Boy, go up, remember to be respectful." ”
I shrugged: "Brother, how do I go up?" ”
As soon as the words fell, a rope was thrown down from the mouth of the cave, and Chai Lao Wu pointed at my Nunu mouth, I walked over slowly, and heard the man say in the mouth of the cave: "Boy, hold on tight, in the blink of an eye, I will get you up." ”
I swallowed: Grandma's, a blink of an eye? If I can't get it, I will fall down, master, won't I fall to my death!
Thinking in his heart, he felt that he couldn't run away, so he sighed, stretched out his hands and wrapped the rope around his wrist twice, then grabbed it tightly and pulled it.
Before I could come back to my senses, I felt a strong force come suddenly, and my whole body suddenly felt like I was flying, my feet stepped into the air, and in a flash, I landed in the hole.
No way! Immortals?! I blinked, looked at the rope in my hand, and then looked out of the cave, and then I believed that I had indeed come up in the blink of an eye!
I hurriedly looked at the gray figure, a white-haired and waist-high old man, skinny as wood, with dry flesh and skin, wearing a wide gray robe, sitting barefoot cross-legged in the cave, and throwing some bones of some unknown animal on the ground in front of him.
"What's your name?" The old man suddenly opened his sparkling eyes and asked me in a local dialect.
I was stunned, I didn't hear what the old man was saying, this person didn't use this accent just now: "Huh? That, what do you say? ”
"I ask you, what's your name?" The old man seemed a little disappointed, and changed to half-baked Mandarin and said it again.
"Junior Gu Rui, from Jinan." I said in my heart that this old man must be a peerless master, maybe I will also have adventures in martial arts novels, not to mention anything else, teach me a set of great moves and I will be invincible in the world!
I was in infinite reverie when the old man asked again, "Jinan people?" Where is Jinan? ”
"Ancestral hometown: Pingyin Gujiazhuang." I replied respectfully.
"Pingyin Gujiazhuang?" The old man's eyes lit up: "Are you from Pingyin Gujiazhuang?" Your name is Gu Rui, do you have a seniority? ”
"Yes, there is." I replied: "The direct descendants of the Gu family have passed on to the younger generation, and they should be Chinese-character generations, because there is a character 'medium' in the father's name, so the younger generation did not add the generation when they took the name. ”
"Gu Zhongrui, hmm...... The seniority is right. The old man groaned and asked, "Then what is your grandfather's name?" ”
"Grandpa?" I was stunned for a moment, thinking to myself whether this old man was an apprentice or a daughter, how to get to the bottom of it, if it weren't for your age, I really wouldn't bother to pay attention to you.
Seeing that I was silent, the old man sneered: "Boy, do you think I am willing to ask you? You love to talk about it or not, I just want to see if you are the real Gu family. ”
"Of course!" I raised my chin: "It doesn't hurt to tell you, the grandfather of the younger generation is named Gu Xiansheng." ”
"Gu Xiansheng?!" After the old man heard my grandfather's name, his body trembled obviously: "Is it really called Gu Xiansheng?" ”
"Grandpa's name, how can I joke!" I looked at the somewhat abnormal old man, and I was nervous for a while: Could it be that grandpa and his old man have a grudge against this old man? Then I'm really going to deliver it to my door!
"Hahaha! Good, good! The old man stood up suddenly, and laughed three times: "Okay! Gu Xiansheng, Gu Xiansheng, I really didn't expect that after a few decades, Lao Tzu would still be able to see the old man, reincarnation! Transmigration! ”
The old man sighed a few words, and suddenly lowered his face and glared at me: "Boy, what's your grandmother's name?!" ”
My grandma? I'm also a little annoyed, this old man beat me in and interrogated me in all kinds of ways, and didn't say anything else, if I really couldn't beat him, I really wanted to go up and slap him in the mouth! It's good now, you asked me, asked my grandfather, and now asked my grandmother, I really want to ask your ancestors for eighteen generations!
"Senior, should you tell me your identity first?" I couldn't help but be angry with Chai Lao Wu and the old man in front of me in the past two days, and asked.
"Humph! I'm a few years older than your grandfather, that bastard of Gu Xiansheng! The old man sneered: "But don't worry, your grandfather and I are close friends in the world, and I won't hurt you." I just want to know, what's your grandma's name! ”
I rolled my eyes and roughly guessed something: "The younger grandmother's name is Mei Xian." ”
"Mei Xian ......" The old man frowned, paced a few steps in the cave and stopped: "Hmm, then I'll know." The Gu family has been passed down to your generation, how many direct disciples are there? ”
"It's just the junior." I smiled wryly.
The old man sighed, walked to the back of the stone table and sat down, stretched out his hand to beckon me, "Come over and sit opposite me." ”
This old man's cultivation is extremely high, and the people outside are probably not his opponents combined, and besides, he said that he is my grandfather's best friend...... Alas, forget it, don't think about it, take it one step at a time.
I walked over and sat down across from the old man, and before I could ask anything, the old man suddenly stretched out a palm and pressed it on my forehead!
"The ......" I only said one word, and I felt very warm on my forehead, and my mouth was dry for a moment, and I couldn't speak at all.
A few seconds later, there was a muffled "poof", and the old man's hand was withdrawn from my forehead, and I looked over to see a drop of blood in the palm of his hand. In my astonishment, the old man stretched out his tongue and licked my blood into his mouth.
I subconsciously touched my forehead, but there was no wound.
"Hmm! Good! You didn't lie to me, you are from the Gu family! The old man chirped and sighed, as if he had eaten some kind of food: "You must be very puzzled, let me tell you, almost a hundred years ago, I had a friend with your grandfather. ”
More than a hundred years ago?! My grandfather is a famous birthday star, he lived to be one hundred and six years old, more than a hundred years ago, my grandfather should have been less than twenty years old, wouldn't this old man in front of him be about one hundred and twenty years old?!
