As soon as we entered the cave, we saw the old man waiting at the entrance of the cave. Seeing us return, the old man's anxious expression was slightly relieved. However, when he saw that there were no right number of us, his face was suddenly full of sorrow.

"Seniors, we ...... The big man ......, "The sadness in my heart suddenly surged up again, and I didn't know what to say all of a sudden."

When the old man saw that I looked nervous and stammered, he nodded, then put his hand up and motioned for me not to say any more. I had to shut up, because he knew what I wanted to say. In fact, I don't need to say anything, the old man can also know the situation: the four of us go and the three of us return, which is enough to explain the situation. I suddenly felt a lot of worry in my heart, so I looked at her. But because of the angle, I couldn't see anything.

Thinking so in my heart, but I couldn't see anyone, I subconsciously asked the direction of the ice bed where Duoduo was. At this moment, the old man asked me, "Has the snow lotus been found?" ”

Only then did I think of the snow lotus on my body, and quickly untied the big male snow lotus on my body. At the same time, the old ghost also took down the snow lotus on his body and handed it to the old man. I said guiltily, "Here, both of them are invited back." But he's ...... big man."

The old man raised his hand again and motioned for me not to say any more. He said: "You don't have to have too much psychological burden, in fact, this qiē is all fate. ”

"Senpai, what do you mean ......?" I couldn't understand what the old man said, so I hurriedly asked him.

The old man said, "Actually, before you set out, I knew that he would be doomed. I thought that the two tips I gave you would be able to change such an ending from a certain course, but I didn't expect it...... Still haven't been able to change. Hey......"

Hearing the old man say this, I felt even more guilty, so I said to the old man: "Senior, in fact, I ......"

I was about to say that. The old man is trying to stop me again. But this time, I never stopped talking because of the old man's stop. Instead, he said to the old man in a firm tone: "Senior, please let me finish!" ”

When the old man saw that I had something to say, he said, "Say whatever you want, in fact, I really don't blame you." ”

"Senior, that's it. Actually, I couldn't use the two tips you gave me! I said.

The old man was visibly taken aback when he heard me say this. However, he didn't say anything, just looked at me in a daze, as if he was questioning me with his eyes. I felt guilty, and I didn't know what to say for a while, so I could only take the initiative to admit my mistake. I said, "It's all my fault!" ”

At this time, the old ghost couldn't wait, and said, "If you want me to say, you can't blame the owner for this......"

The old ghost ignored my stopping, and told us how to meet the storm in one breath. how to hang the cliff and then the bag is blown away by the wind; how did he escape death and find Snow Lotus; Then he talked about how we picked the snow lotus, and how the cave collapsed at the moment when we caught the female snow lotus.

The old ghost spoke coherently, with almost no pauses. During this time, I tried to stop him. However, the old ghost was not disturbed by me. Instead, he continued to tell the story in one breath. And, almost in one go.

"It seems. This qiē is providential. The old man nodded. Seeing that I was still blaming myself for my mistakes, I said to me after a while: "Xiao Fang, this qiē is all providence." The will of heaven cannot be violated, and there is a certain number in the dark! It's something that you and I mortals can't change. ”

I felt a little comforted by the old man's words, but it couldn't offset the guilt in my heart.

At this time. Qian Cheng asked, "Senior, are you saying that you knew early on that the big man would suffer such a catastrophe?" ”

"Yes." The old man said.

"Then why did you arrange for him to go? Why not stop it? Qian Cheng asked in a slightly condemning tone.

After Qian Cheng asked such a question, the old ghost and I suddenly remembered this question. So, we didn't say a word, to see what kind of explanation the old man could give?

The old man's face was calm. There was no rush to explain.

But a few of us couldn't wait, so the old ghost urged: "Senior, please forgive me for speaking directly, are you deliberately asking the big man to go and never return?" ”

When the old man heard the old ghost say this, he hurriedly looked at the old ghost with very strange eyes. After a while, he said, "I can understand you thinking that." However, please understand me as well, I have no choice but to do it. ”

"As a last resort?" Qian Cheng and I asked at the same time.

"Hmm." The old man said, "Do you think he would have agreed if I hadn't let him go?" ”

A few of us didn't speak, in fact, even if we didn't give any answers, the answer was obvious. Because, according to the personality of the big man, he will not go.

The old man continued, "He specified that he would disagree. The most important thing is that if he doesn't go, you will all die except me! ”

"Really?" The old ghost asked curiously. "Why?"

"I never speak." The old man said, "Because if he doesn't go, you won't find the snow lotus." Not even a single one of them will come back! Through my observation of the weather, there will be wind and snow at that time. If you go, you will not come back. If you can't come back, the little money will be in danger. The little money is in danger, you can't come back again, and Xiao Wu is not having a good time.

Xiao Wu is not happy, and he will go to you. I was the only one left, and I definitely won't survive. Even if you live, you ......"

The old man stopped talking at this point.

Actually, he doesn't say it, and we know what the outcome will be. When he explained this, we can understand the choices and hardships faced by the old man. However, when I think about it the other way, I always feel that it is not so appropriate. It is not a righteous act to sacrifice others to survive oneself.

The old ghost was straightforward, and immediately said: "Then you can't watch the big man go to death in vain, this thing is too unrighteous!" ”

The old man smiled bitterly and said, "Actually, that's not what I meant. ”

"What do you mean?" When several of us heard the old man say this, we asked questions at the same time.

"Actually, it's a stupid big man's decision!" The old man said. A few of us were even more surprised when we heard this. Before we could come to our senses, the old man said, "Before we left, I told him, but I didn't say that he would definitely die. However, he resolutely decided to go. Said that even if you die outside, you have dignity. I was born in the military, and I have long taken life and death lightly. Otherwise, I wouldn't have done this.

When I heard it, I thought it was the same. Also, I'm not sure anything will happen to him. just knew that he was in calamity, so he prepared those two tips in advance. However, it still did not change this ending......"

As soon as the old man said this, several of us fell silent. Now, it is no longer possible to blame or blame anyone for this.

At this moment, a violent coughing sound came from inside. The old man shouted: "No, I almost missed a big mistake." ”

It was only then that I remembered that I had to hurry up and heal Duoduo. Patronizing the big one, he forgot the most important things for a while. So, a few of us immediately ran to the cave inside. (To be continued......)
