Chapter 124: Treasure
The old man looked at me with a serious face: "Boy, you must remember, you must do what I say, otherwise I can't guarantee what happens." ”
I looked down at the black leather box, and sneered in my heart, just such a small box, it can hold three or four bottles of water, what can be in it?
No matter how weird it is, it's no weird black goat, no matter how terrifying it is, it's no more terrifying than the black goat charm, what do I have to be afraid of.
I was disdainful in my heart, but nodded seriously on my face and said, "Don't worry, boss." ”
The old man sat back satisfied: "Okay." Now that you've said all that needs to be said, you should get out of here and go to sleep......"
"Boss, I also saw a slender figure with dark spots on his body......"
"Did you see him?!" The old man's tone changed, and his tail trembled slightly: "No, he shouldn't be here...... Boy, you're ......."
The old man looked at me, and he stopped talking, his eyes were so familiar to me, I had seen them countless times, the dream-eating tapir had shown such eyes to me, the merman had shown such eyes to me, even the blind half-immortal had looked at me like this.
He was pitying me, but he was also fearing me.
What is he pitying and fearing?
I do not know.
I don't want to know just yet.
I asked straight up, "What the hell is that thing?!" I saw him eating a scarecrow......"
The old man regained his original calmness, and his cloudy eyes were full of wisdom, as if he was not the one who was shocked just now.
He sneered: "This scarecrow was unlucky, he finally escaped, and he almost escaped in one step, but he was still eaten." ”
"Jump? What does it mean for a scarecrow to jump out? ”
"In this world, whether it is a human, a ghost or a demon, in the end, they must be governed by unknown rules, and if you want to jump out of the rules, you have to go through some additional methods."
"I've heard people say that the paper figure made by refining the soul of a living person jumps out of the Three Realms and is not in the Five Elements, and the same is true for the scarecrow?"
"Yes and no, the paper man you said is artificially refined, once the refining is successful, there will be a strong cause and effect between the paper man and the refiner, although the paper man is not affected by the rules, but his life is pinned on the refiner, and he is even more closed and desperate."
"The Scarecrow......"
"Scarecrows are made by man, contaminated with human body temperature, learned human temperament, and they stand in the cornfield day after day, watching the patches of corn sway with the wind, watching the rainstorm wet the muddy land, watching the love and hatred that happens in the cornfield.
When they have an idea and start asking, 'Who am I?' that's when their tragedy begins.
Do you know butterflies? This fragile little thing, always gives rise to the terrifying thought, it wants to cross the sea.
Do you know moths? This innocent little thing, when faced with flames, always thinks that it can soar and conquer.
In the end, they will only die.
Scarecrows are the same as them.
When they want to become a human being, their death is not far off.
The slender figures you see, living at the junction of yin and yang, I don't know what they are called or where they come from.
I only know that the slender figures are very picky eaters, they only eat things that are half yin and half yang, whether it is a watch or a radio, whether it is a human or a monster, as long as it falls into their hands, there is only one end.
It is difficult to find things that are half yin and half yang, so they can only wander around hungrily, and sometimes when they see people who are pleasing to the eye, or ghosts, they will also beat their teeth.
You should be glad that he was busy looking for a scarecrow today, otherwise, he wouldn't have watched you jump out of the car and didn't care......"
"But I see that his face is full of dark spots, and he has no eyes, can he see it?"
"Boy, the most deceitful thing in this world is the eyes, do you think what you see is reality? Is it possible that someone else wants you to see it, or is it possible that your brain and eyes have deceived you?
They never see the world with their eyes, and their level of life is probably higher than ours. ”
"Boss, how did the scarecrow get out?"
The old man sighed, as if he was a little sorry: "The scarecrow drives a ghost car, if he can successfully reach the shore of the Yellow Spring, blend into the ghosts, cross the Yellow Spring together, pass the ghost gate, and go further, he will become an adult."
Unfortunately, it was spotted by a slender figure.
The slender figure likes to eat scarecrows like half yin and half yang the most, so it is naturally impossible to let it go. ”
"The slender figure came to my dream to forage for food?"
The old man snuffed out the cigarette, put the remaining cigarette butt in his mouth, and swallowed it without chewing.
"It's hard to say, but I think foraging is secondary, and he may have his eye on you."
I was puzzled: "But I am a human being, a man of the yang world, and I am not half yin and half yang, so why is he staring at me?" ”
The old man shook his head slightly: "You really don't know anything." Zhao Rui, there are some things, it's not that I don't tell you, but I can't say it. If I say it, I will block the way of others, that is, I will break the rules, not to mention my old life, I am afraid that my relatives will also die without a place to be buried.
So, it's up to you to guess.
You guessed it, you still have a chance to live. ”
The old man let out a long sigh and patted me lightly on the shoulder: "It's too much for me to talk to you today, so you can go to bed quickly, and leave with them early tomorrow morning, you don't have to say hello to me, we don't know each other." ”
When the old man finished speaking, he waved his hand, and the shop melted away in an instant, and my surroundings became white flowers, and there was nothing left.
The old man was gone.
The Dream Eater Tapir sat on the ground and exhaled: "This old guy is not a good stubble, and at most half of what he said is true." You still don't believe it......"
As he spoke, the Dream Eater Tapir went to get the black suitcase in my hand: "What does he do so much, open it and see what's inside, let's have a good number of points, so as not to be sold by him and have to count the money for him." ”
I turned around and stopped it.
"Forget it, although this is my dream, he can come back at any time, so let's wait until he is in the desert......"
Dream Eater Tapir was a little tooth sour: "No, you really want to bring this inexplicable thing in, you are not afraid of what strange things are in this thing, and when we find the treasure, we will jump out and grab ......."
My face was full of black lines: "I went to Lop Nur to find Gong Yiyu, not to find treasures, besides, what treasures can there be in Lop Nur......"
The dream-eating tapir pulled out a mobile phone and expertly pulled it to a news page.
"What I said above is that there are ancient relics of the previous civilization in Lop Nur, maybe there are treasures in it."
I took my phone, and sure enough, I saw a description of the treasure.
