Chapter 226, Immortality

The three of us lined up in a row, and I took the lead and walked carefully all the way inside, paying attention to my feet as I walked, with the aim of seeing if there were any footprints left.

If Mai Lao and the others had all walked through here, so many people would have left footprints, but the ground was very flat, and there were no footprints at all, so they were really separated, and I don't know what happened to them now.

The passage was not long, nor did it have any mechanisms, it was smooth all the way, we walked in less than five minutes, and we were already at the end, and what appeared in front of us was a dilapidated red wooden door, and it was not dilapidated because it was badly damaged, but because it was too long and there was too much dust.

There are two wooden doors, and there is a lion-shaped ring handle in the middle of each wooden door, and the red wooden door looks very majestic, but it is also very evil, because the red wooden door is too eye-catching, and the whole wooden door is inlaid with large copper nails, which looks a little out of place in this cave.

"There is a wooden door here?" Jenny said, looking at the wooden door in front of her.

"What's so strange, this hellish place doesn't talk about wooden doors, even if there are aircraft carriers, I'm not surprised." I wasn't really surprised, but I didn't know what was terrible hiding behind the wooden door.

"I think too, the color of this wooden door is quite evil, blood red and blood red." The big man touched the wooden door with his hand, turned his head to look at me, and said.

"Well, it's better to be careful, open the door, let's go in and see what's there."

I grabbed the handle on one side with my hand, and the big man grabbed it on the other side, and I motioned for Jenny to step back, back ten meters away, and who knew what the hell was in this wooden door, and when she was far away, I said to the big man, "Open the door." ”

The two of us worked hard at the same time, the wooden door was very heavy, and the big man and I opened the wooden door little by little, and when the wooden door was just opened, a bunch of small moths flew out of it.

At the time, I was shocked, I thought it was those disgusting moths again, but luckily it wasn't, it was just some ordinary moth, and it quickly flew away and disappeared.

When the wooden door was opened, the big man and I stood next to each other, the diving knives in our hands were ready, and our spirits were on high alert, but after waiting for several minutes, nothing came out.

"Okay, come out, I don't think there's anything in there." As she spoke, Jenny came from a distance.

The big man and I walked out from behind the wooden door, "Be careful, let's go, go in and have a look." ”

The three of us took out the glow sticks together, and the light of the three glow sticks should still be enough, and when we walked inside, we found that the space in it was not large, about the size of a classroom, except for a tall tombstone opposite us, there was nothing else around, empty.

The tombstone was three meters high and more than a meter wide, the largest one I had ever seen, and the three of us walked up to it.

The color of this tombstone is off-white, very thick, at least 20 centimeters thick, and there are dense words engraved on it, but none of these words can be understood by me, it is not a traditional character, but this text is not a Chinese character at all, it is all words of different lengths like Xiaobo Lang.

The big man said with emotion, "Mother, what a big tombstone, it seems that there is really a tomb here?" ”

I looked at the words on the tombstone and said, "What the is this?" I don't know any of them? ”

The big man looked at it carefully and said, "What kind of bird language is this?" Why does it look similar to Arabic today? ”

"You know Arabic?" I looked at the big man in surprise and said.

The big man smirked and said, "Pull it down, I don't understand, I just look like it, hook and hook." ”

Jenny stared at the words on the tombstone and said, "This seems to be ancient Persian." ”

"What do you say? Persian? "I've only heard this kind of writing in movies, but I've never seen it in reality.

"Well, yes, it's definitely Persian." Jenny's face was serious, not like a joke.

"Do you know Persian? Can you see what is written on this tombstone? I asked.

"I understand a little bit, but I don't understand what is written." Jenny shook her head helplessly and said.

"Just see whose tombstone it is?" That's the most important thing.

"Young man."

"Who?" Suddenly, an old, hoarse voice sounded to my right, and I jerked away.

Jenny and the big man shuddered at the sound, and in a dark corner to our right, I could faintly see a figure there.

"Who's where? Come out for me. I mustered my courage and whispered.

The figure walked slowly towards us, and only stopped when he was only a few meters away from me, and by the light of the glow stick, I finally saw who he was, it was the shriveled and mysterious old man.

He was still dressed in the same costume, still wearing a cloak, his face still covered with a black cloth, only his eyes were exposed, and his crooked body was like that of an old man who was about to die, and I knew that he would come to me.

"It turned out to be you." I wasn't very excited at this moment, but I was a little scared, and every time I faced this old guy, I was a little bold.

"Old fellow, you don't have to be a god, believe it or not, I'll hack you now." The big man pulled out his knife and yelled, and he was about to rush forward.

I hurriedly reached out to stop him, "Don't be impulsive, calm down." "I'm afraid he will be sent to death if he passes, but the main thing is that I need to find out something about this old man.

Jenny pulled the big man back from behind and shook his head at him, although the big man didn't move, the knife in his hand still didn't let go.

"What do you want to do?" I asked, staring at the old man in front of me.

"Didn't the old man warn you to leave here, this is not the place you should come, let's go back quickly." The old man's hoarse voice was chilling to listen to, I had never heard such a hoarse voice, it didn't look like a human voice at all.

"Leave? Hehe, if you hadn't released those damn red bugs, we would have left a long time ago, killing our two companions, not to mention, forcing us all the way here, and now you're letting us go, you're kidding. ”

I stared at him coldly, in fact, I knew very well in my heart that he didn't want to kill us, and if he did, he wouldn't bother to talk to me.

"Hey... Young man, if the old man really wanted to kill you, you would have died under the Dementor Grass a long time ago, so why did the old man come to save you? The old man sighed and said as he took two steps to our side.

"Sure enough, you saved me, why did you save me?" In fact, I had long thought that the strange sound at that time was blown by him, but I didn't understand why he wanted to save me.

"Hehe, the old man has killed countless people in his life, and the reason why he will save you is just that I don't want to see you being used by traitors, and I still don't know the truth in the dark." The old man squinted at me, and his voice raised a little.

"Dead old ghost, what kind of mess are you talking about? You old immortal, I see that all this is your troublemaker. The big man pointed his knife at him and yelled.

The old man stared at the big man, and said with murderous anger in his tone, "Young man, you insulted the old man twice in a row, and the old man didn't care about you these two times, but if you dare to say one more word, the old man will have to kill your dog." ”

"You..."The big man was about to scold, but I immediately interrupted him, "Shut up, Jenny, you take a good look at him, don't let him talk any more." "I was afraid that this old man would kill him in a frenzy, and I knew very well that he was already angry.

"If you want me to believe you, you have to at least let me know who you are, right?" I kept my eyes on him, feeling that the truth of the matter was no longer far away.

"Since that's the case, then there's no need for the old man to hide it anymore, in fact, you've already seen the old man." As the old man spoke, he slowly took off the black cloth from his face.

And my heart beat faster, and when he took the black cloth off, I could see who he was, and although his face was full of wrinkles and looked like a dying old man, I could still tell at a glance that he was actually the wizard in the painting.

Under the green glow stick, his face looked so terrible and so evil, my body suddenly shook, and I unconsciously took two steps back.

"Oh my God, he... He was actually the wizard in the painting. Jenny could see it, too, and she grabbed my arm, and her body trembled a little.

"That's right, the old man is one of the people in the painting." His face was so old that the wrinkles were like those carved with a knife, and I had never seen anyone age like this, it was terrible, like the face of a devil.

I shuddered a little, but I still asked strongly, "It's really you, you're really alive, how many years have you been on this island?" ”

The old man stroked his beard, "How many years?" Hehe, it's been many years, and the old man can't remember it clearly, maybe there will be hundreds of years. ”

Hundreds of years? Could it be that he is really a person who has lived from the Ming Dynasty to the present? After listening to the old man's words, the three of us were a little dumbfounded, and looked at each other, especially the big ones, who were not as embarrassed as before.

In fact, I thought that he might live until now, but when I really knew, I was still a little shocked, which proves that what Jiao Ba said is right, that ginseng fruit can really make people immortal.

"I know, you ate ginseng fruit, so you can live from the Ming Dynasty to the present, right?" I still boldly asked him, I have to figure out this matter.
