I naturally knew what my grandfather had found in the Northwest. But I want to know more about how my grandfather studied that thing, and what they came up with.

But I didn't rush, I waited patiently for my grandfather to say more. He has limited time and I can't afford to waste it.

"The five of us had a slight disagreement at first, but we quickly reached an agreement, not to tell the organization first, not to return to the imperial capital first, to find a more secret place and start to study what is so special about the stone." My grandfather paused, then continued: "In the beginning, several of us used a lot of methods, but we were always helpless, and the stone was still an ordinary stone, and nothing changed. ”

My grandfather's tone was steady when he told about these things, without the slightest wave, but even so, I was still fascinated and thrilled to listen to, and I could even imagine the scene of the five of them looking for a place to study the excavated stones, and I felt a little cold inexplicably.

"And what about later? How did you come up with that? I finally couldn't help but ask.

"We were looking for a mine that had been abandoned for a long time and was very hidden. At that time, several of us studied for several days and nights, but we had no clue, and several of us were a little anxious, but there was nothing we could do. Someone even proposed to try smashing rocks at that time, but we didn't agree at first, but in the end, we were so anxious that we all agreed. My grandfather sighed slightly, "It's just that no matter how we toss the stone, it's all the same, and it hasn't changed at all...... We're all desperate. Just when we were desperate, the unexpected happened. ”

At this point, my grandfather's voice suddenly rose high, and his eyes lit up all of a sudden.

I had been a little dull when I heard it, but now that my grandfather's tone was suddenly high, I knew that things must have taken a turn for the better, and I immediately cheered up, and waited for my grandfather to continue.

"It was one night when some of us were thirsty and got up at night to drink water, because the mine was so small, and we accidentally spilled water on the rock. He didn't notice anything unusual at the time, and it wasn't until we woke up the next morning that we realized that one of the stones had turned into something like crystal. My grandfather had a smile on his face and spoke much faster, "This discovery made everyone very excited, and we simply found a lot of water and poured a lot of water on it. ”

"Sure enough, when the stone met the water, the layer of dirt on the outside actually faded away little by little, revealing the crystal clear inside. It took us half a day for the entire stone to completely fade away, revealing the contents completely. I still vividly remember the moment the contents were revealed, we were all stunned, because we had never seen such a beautiful and shocking thing in our lives. My grandfather's eyes suddenly became bright, as if he had seen the crystal stone again, "The stone was full of crystals, and the crystal was pink and transparent, and the whole body was almost a whole piece." It was like a crystal palace, with a fetus the size of a child's fist curled up inside. ”

Needless to say, the flesh in this is me.

Hearing this, I interrupted my grandfather's words, "However, I remember that Lin Xiao told me that when you escorted you back, you didn't know what you found. But what you just said, Grandpa, you clearly know what this thing is......"

What my grandfather said just now seems to be a bit of a conflict with what Lin Xiao once mentioned.

"You're right, when we shipped the crystal back, we had already done a good job of camouflage, pretending that we didn't know anything." My grandfather nodded, and continued, "When we melted all the outer layer of the stone and saw the crystal stone and the flesh inside, we all knew that this flesh must be extraordinary. At that time, Luo Fan knew the origin of this crystal stone, and probably told us about it, and then the five of us were divided into two factions in an instant. ”

I naturally understand this, my grandfather and the five of them are all among the best, what they have seen and heard is naturally broad and profound, seeing this crystal stone and the flesh fetus inside, it is naturally possible to know the origin, so it is not an unexpected thing for the cold man to tell the origin of this crystal stone.

My grandfather then recounted: "The five of us were divided into two factions, one of which advocated keeping the thing, and then the five of us disappeared together, and faked the scene of our death; The other faction advocated transporting the things back to the imperial capital as soon as possible, because they had listened to Luo Fan's story and felt that this thing was strange and dangerous, and could not be in our hands. Our two factions have been arguing for a long time, and because of this, they have been delayed for a long time. Change has happened in the past few days. ”

My heart tightened again, and I pricked up my ears to listen to my grandfather's next words.

"At the beginning, Wang Zegang found out, he originally had a little white head, but at a young age, a lot of hair was gray, and he usually felt a lot of sadness about white hair. But after we had been in the cave for a few days, one day when we woke up, Wang told us that his gray hair was gone. Seeing that I was listening carefully, my grandfather went on to say, "A few of us immediately gathered around, and sure enough, we found that Wang Zegang's hair, which was nearly half white, had suddenly turned all of its swarthy color. ”

Wang Zegang, I naturally know who it is, and I also know what this little incident means what will happen in the future.

Sure enough, my grandfather continued: "Several of us were stunned, and we didn't know why Wang Zegang's hair turned black all of a sudden. After a long discussion, we finally focused on the crystal, if there was anything else in the mine that could cause a change, it could only be that crystal. What surprised us even more was that after a few days, the skin of several of us began to become fair and delicate, like the skin of a baby, as if it were ...... It seems to be getting younger little by little. ”

I finally understood when the changes of my grandfather and the others began, and the crystal stone made them not only younger, but also their faces have not aged...... No, it seems that only the cold man, Lin Xiao, and the dead Duan Mouton have not aged now.

What's going on here?

I wanted to ask my grandfather what was going on right away, but I was afraid of disrupting my grandfather's train of thought, so I had to put the question down and wait for my grandfather to say it later.

My grandfather's voice also suddenly brought anger, and he said closely: "Several of us have changed, although we didn't understand what the consequences of this change were, but the faction that was originally inclined to keep this thing has gradually changed its mind, and plans to hand this thing back first, and see what the upper authorities plan." In the end, we made a decision, and Lin Xiao and Duan Mouton came to us, and they brought a lot of people to surround the mine where we had been staying for a few days. Lin Xiao said that he was worried from above, so he sent someone to pick us up, but we all understood that the intention of so many of them to surround us was to force us out. ”

Hearing this, I was taken aback: Lin Xiao and Duan Moutong actually went, but Lin Xiao deliberately concealed this paragraph and did not tell me this paragraph.

But I vaguely feel that the reason why Lin Xiao and Duan Moutong have always maintained their young and ageless appearance is that they are afraid that it has a lot to do with them going to my grandfather and them and helping to transport things back to the imperial capital.

"At that time, we saw Lin Xiao appear, and we were all surprised. We found someone to delay Lin Xiao, and then planned to quickly disguise the crystal stone to prevent Lin Xiao from seeing it. "The situation should have been urgent, and my grandfather's speech suddenly increased," we were in a hurry to disguise the crystal, but we accidentally dropped the top piece of the crystal. After that thing fell, the meat fetus that was originally the size of a fist in the crystal stone, and the layer of flesh wrapped on the outside gradually became thinner and more transparent. At that time, we realized that this falling thing should be able to curb the growth of the flesh, and it must be crucial. ”

I directly interrupted my grandfather's words, and asked in a trembling voice, "Grandpa, is that thing that fell from Shimu?" ”

My grandfather nodded, "That's right, it's Shi Mu, which we also learned later." At that time, the situation was urgent, and a few of us quickly made a decision to leave this stone mother behind! But the stone mother was very small, and only one of us could take it, and who was responsible for taking the stone mother at that time became our biggest concern. ”

"Later, we discussed a solution." My grandfather took a deep breath and continued without waiting for me to urge: "We must let one person hold this stone mother, but as long as someone holds it, there may be selfishness. What we have to solve is how to make a person hold the stone mother without being discovered, and there is no selfishness to swallow this stone mother. ”

I was stunned, I really couldn't think of how my grandfather could do this.
