Chapter 196: First Glimpse of the Man Behind the Scenes
Since the fat man said this, I can't say anything more, what he said is also reasonable, by his ability to investigate the hotel where we stayed, we know that he is not far away, and all our actions cannot be hidden from him, and it is better to meet him generously than to meet him in a timid tone, to see what kind of person this desireless person is.
After coming out of the hotel, we drove directly to the gas station to fill up the fuel tank, and there was an unexpected situation on the way to the province.
Taking advantage of the fat man's time to refuel, Huang Tian and I went to the nearby supermarket to buy a lot of food and drink, and the three of us could drive, so we didn't stop, taking turns to drive, to see what moths he could make on the road.
Because we were afraid that we would inadvertently fall into each other's ways, we didn't even buy alcohol this time, and the fat man was not happy, he liked to drink the most, as if he was addicted to alcohol.
The car quickly left the city and got on the highway, which was always so monotonous, and there was hardly any scenery to see except for the speeding cars.
Because it was daytime, and I didn't have a driver's license, I could only let the fat man and Huang Tian drive the two, I was going to squint and drive for the two of them at night when there were few cars and fewer people, but I couldn't sleep, so I looked out the window to see the scenery on both sides.
At first, you can still see it, but after a long time, it will be boring, because the scenery on both sides is almost the same, and the scenery is almost the same on the highway.
The car drove for most of the day, and it was not until it was nearly dusk that we got off the highway, and nothing happened along the way, and we slacked off when we saw it.
The fat man handed over the car to me, and went to the back seat to rest and replenish his energy, because of the letter without desire, the fat man has been in a state of high mental tension, and he did not dare to relax in the slightest, for fear that there would be some accidents.
Now it's off the highway, as long as you don't drive fast. There shouldn't be any incidents, and the fat man is relieved, let's drive the car and take a rest by ourselves.
Soon after getting off the highway, there is an intersection ahead, and although it is an intersection, it is not close to cities and villages, so there are no traffic lights at this intersection.
It's just dark, and if you're in the city or the countryside, it's the time when people come and go. It was rush hour, but it was surprisingly desolate, there wasn't even a car, and I didn't dare to relax because I was thinking about the letter I didn't want.
The car soon reached the middle of the crossroads, and I suddenly saw an old man squatting in the middle of the crossroads, very thin, burning some paper money, paper people, paper horses, and other things in the middle of the road. It's not big, though. But they all look the same.
I chuckled in my heart, and said that this person can't just have no desires, right? And put here waiting for us? But if we don't get out of the car, we just go straight to him. How could he tell that we were gone? Unless he's seen our car beforehand.
Thinking of this, I slowed down and prepared to walk past him. Just as the car was passing the intersection, suddenly a piece of paper ash stuck to the windshield in front of me, and I was about to activate the wiper to sweep the paper ash down. A gust of wind suddenly arose in front of me.
All of a sudden, all of a sand was raised in front of me, yellow and misty, I couldn't see anything clearly, I put my foot on the brakes, ready to stop the car first, because I couldn't see anything in front of me, God knows if the car would hit something?
However, the brakes of the car seemed to be blocked by something, and no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't step on it at all.
In a panic, I released the accelerator and stepped on the clutch to shift gears, however, the accelerator and clutch seemed to have a problem The accelerator does not play up, but it seems that someone is stepping on it for me, a hard accelerator, and the clutch and brake are exactly the same, now I really panicked, and immediately yelled at the fat man to come and help, at this time do not stop the car, we may not encounter what kind of problems.
Just when I shouted fat, I suddenly found that the steering wheel did not obey the call, I couldn't turn the steering wheel at all, but it seemed that a pair of powerful hands were helping me hold the steering wheel, this is still it?
The fat man and Huang Tian also saw the situation in front of them clearly, and the fat man shouted: "Jump out of the car, this car is controlled by something." ”
I scolded the fat man while opening the door: "Didn't you say that this car has been modified and dirty things can't get in?" ”
"Less nonsense, hurry up and jump out of the car, it's important to escape!"
Saying that, the fat man and Huang Tian jumped out of the car one after another, rolling on the ground, I didn't care about these anymore, after opening the car door, I struggled to get out of the car, protecting my head with both hands, and curled up when my body didn't hit the ground to reduce damage.
Fortunately, the car didn't go forward for too long, and we reacted most correctly almost as soon as something happened, so it is estimated that we are still on the road, which is dangerous, because after all, there will be cars passing by on the road, and if we are hit and killed by the blindfolded driver, wouldn't it be extremely wrong?
Two minutes, just two minutes, we heard a loud bang, it seemed that the car was scrapped and the fat man was trembling in distress, and the car specially allocated to him was destroyed for no reason.
As we jumped out of the car, the scenery in front of us changed again, the sky and the earth were gray, and we could only see about three or four meters around us.
"No desire, you old horseman, others are afraid of you, your fat man is not afraid, there is a kind, it is a few hands to stand up for the fat man, hide in the shadows and hide his head and tail to scatter what kind of hero?"
The fat man estimated that the fall was not light, and there was nowhere to spread the fire in his belly, plus he felt sorry for his car, and suddenly scolded him for having no desire.
"Hehe, the young man is just too angry, I didn't hide at all, just in front of you, but you can't see me, a lot of the deployments I have made have been destroyed by you, you say, how can I repay you?"
A phrase came from the dark space, and then, it slowly became clear in front of our eyes, and the wind disappeared.
However, the three of us were collectively dumbfounded, because we saw that now we were not on the road at all, but in a vast and infinite space, and there was nothing in this space, no sun, no moon, no stars, and no buildings, it was all dry and red earth, and it was cracked.
Not far in front of us stood an old man in a long robe with a faint green glow in his eyes, like those of a wolf in the dark.
"You just have no desire? Doesn't it look like much? ”
The fat man was still very arrogant, and he actually took the initiative to go up, we don't know what the ability of no desire is, but he is definitely not easy to deal with, and he can't let the fat man take risks alone, so he also surrounded him in a zigzag shape.
In any case, the three of us are young and strong, and we should not have much of a problem dealing with a bad old man.
But my keen sixth sense told me that the old man in front of me didn't exist at all, as if it was outside of our spiritual sense.
"Hehe, that's right, the old man just has no desire, you three little dolls don't look good, but you can break my arrangement everywhere, do you think I will let you go?"
Cat and mouse, a typical cat and mouse mentality, I hate it so much, this old man is trying to tease us, but this must be a fantasy space created by him, we are all under his control, fighting with him, I'm afraid the situation is not optimistic.
"No desire, you know, we are investigating you, and we dare to come and meet us, I admire your courage, but do you think you can really get eternal life by doing this? You are wrong, eternal life does not exist in this world, throughout the ages, so many sages, the desire for eternal life is more urgent than yours, but who do you think can live until now? So, I conclude that all your efforts are in vain, eternal life, impossible to achieve. ”
Since it is the opposite, I don't have to be polite to him, just expose his scars directly, presumably he has also had a lot of research results over the years, and the most intolerable thing for such a person is that others question his research results, and he will definitely be furious, and only if he angers us will we have a chance.
Sure enough, when I said this, I immediately poked him in the sore spot, and he jumped up violently at once, blew his beard and glared: "You are a little fart child who knows a fart, eternal life is the greatest dream of mankind, and it will definitely become a reality in me, because I am no one else, I am desireless." ”
"What is desireless? I think you're dissatisfied, right? According to the existing laws and regulations of our country, you wantonly kill innocents indiscriminately, experiment on your so-called crazy idea of eternal life, and you are a heinous villain yourself, and you still want to live forever? Go for your big autumn dreams. ”
Huang Tian is not welcome, anyway, we don't have anything good to meet this old guy, so it is very likely that we will return to our position today.
He almost had a heart attack because he didn't want to be angry with us, and his face was pale, but after a while, he suddenly laughed, and he laughed quite happily.
"You three are now in my pocket, so why should I be like you? However, in order to test your strength, I have decided to give you a chance to escape, provided that you can escape from here. ”
After saying that, the whole person disappeared in front of us at once, as if it had never existed.
The fat man was startled, touched it in the place where Wu Desire was originally, then withdrew his hand, put it under his nose and sniffed it, and said with a solemn face: "Corpse gas, he has a heavy corpse qi on his body, there are two possibilities, first, he is dead, but like Gu Jianfeng, his soul is in the dead body, and second, he is not dead yet, but he has changed his body, and now this body does not know how many bodies he has." ”
"Doesn't that mean that he is already immortal in disguise?"
Huang Tian and I asked at the same time. The fat man nodded, not ruling out this possibility. (To be continued......)
