Chapter 718: The old man who went crazy
Daxiang is no longer the Daxiang of the past, and the Northern Desert is no longer the Northern Desert of the past.
Such a sudden catastrophe has almost disrupted all the rules in this world, and people are struggling to survive, and they have to go to other countries to seek shelter.
Ridiculous, pathetic, lamentable......
Chen Changsheng took a sip of wine, he looked at the street outside, and when he left, he just wanted to see how chaotic the northwest was, and now he turned back, but he seemed to have the same purpose.
He sighed softly, secretly lamenting the changeability of this world.
After a short rest, he left the shop and wandered around the ancient city of Jiang.
It is worth mentioning that he saw the temple dedicated to the immortal official, which seemed to have been built for less than two years.
The statue of the immortal official is dressed in a yellow robe, with fierce eyebrows, surrounded by a tiger, incense rises in the ding, and there are pilgrims to worship, but only a few.
There are people from the Northern Desert and people from Daxiang in the temple, and their demands are also different.
Chen Changsheng looked at the statue and recognized him as Tu Hu.
If nothing else, this temple should have been built before the Northern Desert occupied this place.
And now this temple has lost its divinity, although it is good to say that there are still pilgrims, but the power of incense has nowhere to go.
Tu Hu was canonized by Emperor Daxiang, but this is no longer Daxiang, and this is not his jurisdiction.
Chen Changsheng shook his head and left here.
He was going out of the city to Daxiang.
The road outside the city is much easier to walk than before, it is no longer full of sand and dust, and the surrounding trees and mountains and forests are gradually becoming denser.
Walk to a village outside the city, this place has been deserted, the houses are dilapidated, but you can vaguely see the traces of people living here, if it were not for this sudden troubled times, maybe this place is still the same as before. Calm and peaceful.
However, just as Chen Changsheng was about to look away, he suddenly found an old man sitting at the door of the eaves in that lonely village.
The old man sat in front of the door, as if waiting for something.
Chen Changsheng walked over.
The old man raised his head and saw Chen Changsheng, he opened his mouth, and it could be seen that his teeth were about to fall out.
"You, who are you looking for?"
He spoke a little stumblingly, and there was confusion in his eyes.
Chen Changsheng said: "I just passed by here, thinking that this place was deserted, and I never thought that there was an old man here, so I came to have a look." ”
"Oooh......"
The old man nodded and said, "They're out, and no one will be there." ”
"Hmmm......"
Chen Changsheng asked, "Old man, how long have you been here?" ”
The old man blinked and said, "I can't remember." ”
"Why are you alone?"
"No, they just went out and will be back in a while."
The old man said with a wink.
"Out?"
Chen Changsheng paused and looked at the unpopular and dilapidated house in the circle.
"When did you go out?"
"I'll go out at dawn."
The old man said, "Who are you looking for in the next life?" ”
Chen Changsheng paused, shook his head and said, "Chen is not looking for anyone." ”
He felt that this old man was a little strange, and at first he thought it was some lonely ghost, but after a closer look, he was sure that he was indeed a human being.
"And what are you doing here?" The old man asked.
Chen Changsheng said: "Chen Mou ......"
He glanced at the old man, and when he looked at him again, he found something.
"Oh......"
Chen Changsheng understood.
The old man was probably a little delirious, that is, he had some mental problems.
"How long have you been waiting, old man?"
"How long has it been ......"
The old man was stunned for a moment, he touched his head and didn't react.
"yes, I've been waiting for a long time?"
The old man began to doubt his memory, and after thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't tell why.
His gaze froze suddenly, as if he were immersed in some kind of memory.
"Old man?" Chen Changsheng asked.
The old man turned his head and looked at Chen Changsheng with a stunned look in his eyes.
Suddenly, tears welled up in his eyes, and in an instant they flushed red.
"Why is it only me, why is it only me......"
The old man muttered this sentence.
His arms trembled, as if he had difficulty accepting the fact of his sudden discovery.
"Second baby! Second baby! ”
"Second brother, where are you! Second brother! ”
The old man suddenly got up and shouted around, as if in an instant, the fantasy automatic scene was suddenly shattered, revealing the truth.
Chen Changsheng looked at this scene, he opened his mouth, but he couldn't speak.
"Old man."
He hurriedly stepped forward and pulled the old man.
"What about people, where have people gone? They didn't come back? They didn't come back? ”
The old man said to Chen Changsheng with a crying voice.
"They ......," Chen Changsheng couldn't answer.
But suddenly, the old man's eyes became a little stunned.
After a brief silence,
The old man looked at Chen Changsheng again, and suddenly said something.
"Who are you?"
Chen Changsheng was stunned.
He lowered his hand, looking a little bewildered.
"I don't recognize you!"
The old man said and took a few steps back.
He was like a kid at the moment.
Chen Changsheng looked around at this desolate house, and the birds in the mountain stream were cooing.
It seems that at a certain moment, he saw the peaceful and peaceful scene of this village in the old man's memories, but now it is empty, and it is all lonely.
The old man is crazy.
Chen Changsheng couldn't help but think to himself, if he also lived in memories and reality like the old man, would he become like this old man one day.
When everyone is gone, how do you deal with yourself?
Chen Changsheng took a breath, and suddenly he was a little dazed.
Before leaving, he left a mana on the old man's body, which could bless the old man from being violated, but Chen Changsheng did not solve the old man's delirium.
Because he can't tell whether it's good or bad for him to do this.
Such a tragic world has made many things unreasonable.
After walking out of the village, Chen Changsheng couldn't help but glance back at this lonely village.
Now there is only one crazy old man here.
He breathed a sigh of relief and never looked back.
Chen Changsheng also suddenly realized that there was still a long, long road ahead.
After walking for a long time, he found that among the mountains and forests in the distance, there were people from the Northern Desert on horseback patrolling the surroundings.
If nothing else, then the front is the great front is the great Xiang realm.
Chen Changsheng evaded the inspection of the Northern Desert people, crossed the mountains and forests, and gradually broadened his vision in front of him.
The lonely insects and birds of the mountain stream sounded in my ears.
He suddenly missed the annoying cat.
