Chapter 19: The Vegetable Cellar
I saw Lao Feng and his wife in the crowd, and a few other people looked very familiar. I know in my heart that these are all people from the village, and looking at this number, I am afraid that the village has been dispatched.
I didn't dare to say hello, looking at the other person's eyes, it was obvious that the person who came was not good. Including Lao Feng and Lao Lao, they changed their warm-hearted appearance with a smile before, and their expressionless faces made people feel chills in their hearts.
What to do? Bai Kai asked Qin Yiheng in a low voice.
I heard Qin Yiheng take a deep breath, and it seemed that he was also at a loss. After a while, he said, there is no way to force it, only to take one step at a time, these people have calculated that we are certain to die in the forest, and they have been waiting for us to go out here, we run, they will definitely not chase after us. But where can we go?
As soon as I heard it, I secretly screamed that when I encountered danger in the past, although I would suffer a little, the situation was always on our side. Now that I'm going to be led by the nose, I'm really worried that this life will be lost, and I'm afraid that some torture will make your life worse than death.
Thinking about it, Qin Yiheng had already walked forward.
I followed at the back, looking at the backs of Qin Yiheng and Bai Kai in front of me, and suddenly felt a little heroic, so I don't know where the courage came from, but I am not afraid.
When they came out of the woods, a crowd gathered around them. It's just that no one said anything. I guessed that I was waiting for the leader to speak, and I scanned it with my eyes, but I didn't see who looked like the big brother in the lead. I'm afraid these people have been waiting for a long time again, and their faces are all red from the cold.
After a while, someone in the crowd finally spoke. When I heard this, my heart trembled, it turned out to be Lao Feng.
This old guy stared into my eyes and said, "You guys come with me."
We were hugged by a group of people and went straight to Lao Feng's house.
Lao Feng's house is not far from the forest, and it will take a while to arrive.
A group of people did not enter Lao Feng's house, but went around to the back of the house. Lao Feng stretched out his hand and opened a wooden door from the ground and walked down first. The others remained on the ground, just watching us go down, and didn't even send anyone to follow.
We climbed down the wooden ladder and landed in a few clicks. There was a dim kerosene lamp underneath, but the brightness of the lamp was so low that it was useless. All around was a hazy haze.
I guessed that this is a vegetable cellar unique to the north. It doesn't dig deep, and it's usually just used to store some Chinese cabbage and the like. It's just that at this time, the vegetable cellar has been emptied, and there will be a clear echo if you move it slightly.
I reached out and touched the underside, it was hard land. As soon as he looked up, Lao Feng had already picked up the kerosene lamp, took two steps, and actually pushed open another door.
I didn't expect this vegetable cellar to be built into a one-bedroom apartment, which was quite unexpected. Follow one foot deeper and one foot shallow through the door.
What surprised me even more was that behind this door, there was still the same vegetable cellar. Not only is the size of the rack about the same, but there is even the same kerosene lamp in the same position. There was also a person standing next to the lamp, and when the man saw us coming, he picked up the lamp almost exactly like Lao Feng and opened another door.
At this time, I was a little afraid to leave. There is obviously some special purpose in cultivating the vegetable cellar like this.
I don't know what awaits us.
I walked into a vegetable cellar again. I'm completely confused.
In the first two, I also roughly estimated the position above my head and corresponded to in the village.
When I saw that there was still a kerosene lamp in the third vegetable cellar, I simply didn't want to do it, and walked all the way to the dark.
Bai Kai was surprised to keep silent, I don't think this grandson was frightened. Seeing him shaking his head in front of me, I always felt like he was planning something. Helplessly, in addition to Lao Feng, there are two more people around, and I can't speak. I had to poke him, trying to make eye contact.
As soon as I stretched out my hand, I saw some clues. One of the white hands seemed to be holding something. Taking advantage of the fact that the person carrying the kerosene lamp was not paying attention, he quietly threw it to the ground. I just happened to step over the thing, and I could only take a hurried look, the light was very weak, and I could only see that it was not big, and it didn't feel heavy.
By the time I got to the fourth cellar, I couldn't help but be amazed.
These people will definitely not be ordinary villagers, no, these people will not be villagers at all.
This kind of project seems simple, but it is not easy to repair. Looking at the posture, we are far from the end, and I don't know how many more vegetable cellars there will be in front of us.
I've noticed it before, but this time I'm paying attention to it. I want to see what tricks Bai Kai is playing.
This time, I really saw it clearly, he was quietly throwing the buttons on his clothes on the ground.
I didn't understand it at first, but after thinking about it for a while, it dawned on me. It is very smart that we are currently just a vegetable cellar and a vegetable cellar walking. On the surface, it is walking in a very simple straight line. But we are only passing through one part of this vast underground transportation network. Whenever something happens for a while, Bai Kai is worried that he will get lost inside.
I don't think Bai Kai's worries are superfluous, damn these people are probably a little problematic, to be honest, even if we go through countless vegetable cellars to the end, that Lao Feng suddenly smiled and said that he wanted to play mahjong and missed three, so I invited you all over, I don't think it's outrageous. For some people whose personal world is not normal, you can't apply and analyze them with normal world thinking.
Sure enough, behind the doors of the vegetable cellar were more vegetable cellar doors.
Along the way, I am not in a hurry to see how many vegetable cellars I have walked through, and there are more and more people accompanying me. Although the kerosene lamps are dim, they are not numerous, and the surroundings can gradually be seen clearly. Every cellar has bare floors and bare walls. And I don't know if it's because it's painted, or if the soil itself has a color. Even though the surroundings were illuminated, it still felt as if the light was swallowed up by the walls and the ground. I suddenly remembered that Bai Kai had said that this monster had turned into a human form, and it would be painted with that kind of light-absorbing material in its earthly dwelling. I couldn't help muttering in my heart, could it be that what we will see in a while will be an old monster who has cultivated to become a refinement, and will it be the so-called 10,000-year-old ginseng?
Bai Kai himself was wearing a lot of clothes on the previous corpse, and the buttons should be sufficient.
But as the cellar went more and more, the buttons were not enough. I had no choice but to pull my body off and quietly stuff it into him. Bai Kai didn't look back and gave me a thumbs up.
Many of the vegetable cellars in front were guarded, and gradually only kerosene lamps remained, and no one was there.
I didn't count the time, but I always felt like I walked for half an hour to forty minutes. Lao Feng finally stopped and stood in front of a door. Looking back, everyone, it's been a great job.
Bai Kai laughed and said, it's not hard. Lao Feng, I think you have to repair the airport here. A direct flight from the No. 1 vegetable cellar to the forked vegetable cellar, the Northeast girl on the plane on the water, bowed when serving the passengers: "What are you going to eat Emma!" "How good is that.
Bai Kai suddenly stopped laughing, and Yan Sรน asked, Damn, are you polite to you when we come? If there's a fart, hurry up!
Lao Feng was a little unfazed, ignored Bai Kai, and looked at me instead.
We also have no choice but to do this, Boss Jiang. We've been waiting for you for a long time, much longer than you think.
I was stunned, Lao Feng pushed the door open and said, please.
The man stepped aside.
Hey, you are the VIP, Bai Kai let me out of the way, be careful of Xiao Gap, Qin Yiheng and I will pick you up from school at night!
I took a deep breath, though I wanted to smoke. But I held back. At this point, I don't want to expose my timidity.
When he passed by Qin Yiheng, he patted me on the shoulder and didn't make a sound. I nodded, and said in my heart that my mother's Lao Tzu was not coerced back then, saying that I was stupid, saying that I didn't admit it!
Walking into another vegetable cellar, I thought that since this one was the end, it would definitely be bigger. I glanced at it, but I didn't think there was anything special, and what made me even more strange was that this room was also empty, not even a kerosene lamp.
I looked back to see Lao Feng, but I found that the door had been quietly closed at some point.
