The old man's words made me stunned.

That thing...... Does it belong to me?

That thing definitely doesn't belong to me, but it belongs to Li Fuguang, and now there is evidence from all sides that Li Fuguang is an evil Buddha.

If he weren't for the evil Buddha, he wouldn't have been sick every year on the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve.

So that thing, at least belongs to Li Fuguang.

And Li Fuguang is now in my body, and he can't speak, so it's the same if I help him.

"It belongs to me."

Hearing my return, the old man nodded: "Since it belongs to you, and you want to find this thing, then this thing must be useful to you, right?" If it doesn't work, why would you look for it? ”

The more I listened, the more I felt that something was wrong.

This old man is obviously not an ordinary old man.

Everything he said seemed to have a deep meaning.

Not only did I hear it, but Yi Yang also heard it.

We looked at the old man carefully, but we didn't see that he was a ghost.

Is it a spirit?

They didn't provoke us, so they can't give him a place to press here, right?

I didn't answer him, but asked, "Old man, where do you live, why haven't I seen you?" ”

He smiled and said, "This mountain."

I thought about it for a while, and said directly to him: "What I'm looking for is useful to me, I'm not a bad person, old man, you are well-informed, can you tell me how to find what I want." ”

He said, "Since you know what you are looking for, and what it is useful to you, then you have to look for it yourself, and you follow this path, walk for an hour, and you will be close to it." ”

I looked in the direction of the old man's finger, but that direction was not southwest at all......

I hesitated for a long time, and said to An Ning and Yi Yang: "I'll go by myself, you guys will wait for me here." ”

An Ning glanced at the dense forest on the mountain and thought for a while: "What if there is a wild beast on the mountain and takes you away?" ”

I said let's come here and cook some for me during the New Year's holidays.

Yi Yang pulled me, glanced at the old man, and said, "Let's go together, it's not safe......"

I said it's okay, if I really go up the mountain and let the beast take me away, that's my life.

Besides, there could be nothing but wild beasts on this mountain.

Before leaving, I gave Yi Yang a look and asked him to stare at the old man who was fishing.

Then I put my backpack on my back and headed the road alone, towards the mountain.

The old man said let me walk for an hour, an hour is two hours, the mountain road is not easy to walk, and it is not far to walk for two hours.

I was also cautious along the way, holding a wooden stick to guard the surroundings.

After an hour of walking, there was nothing strange around, and there were no wild animals, but strangely, I noticed that the temperature was getting warmer and higher.

It's the fifth month of the lunar calendar, and it's already summer, but it's not a very hot time in general.

But now, I feel like the temperature is in the 40s, and the heat makes my skin hot.

And the further I went, the higher the temperature became, unbearably high.

The temperature wasn't right at all, but I couldn't help it, I just kept going.

In the last hour, I was really like a sea of fire, and I finally walked for an hour.

I fell to my knees dizzily, quickly took out the water in my backpack, drank two sips, didn't dare to drink more, and slowed down for a long time before recovering.

Just as I was getting up from the ground, I saw an old man in front of me.

The more I looked at the old man's clothes, the more familiar I felt, and he was sitting under a tree in the shade.

When I got closer and looked again, I was dumbfounded.

"Old man, you flew up!"

This old man was there just now

He opened his eyes, looked at me and smiled, "There's a shortcut, I'll take the shortcut." ”

When I heard this, I was a little speechless: "Then why didn't you tell me the shortcut?" ”

He also straightened up and said, "I told you a way and you left, and you didn't ask me if I had a shortcut." ”

He was speechless to me.

Alas, okay.

Who told me to listen to him.

Besides, when I had reached the place he had mentioned, I asked him again, "Old man, is the thing I am looking for near here?" ”

He shook his head and said no.

My eyes widened, "Didn't you tell me to come here!" ”

He straightened up again, and said, "I said that when you get here, you are getting closer and closer to what you are looking for, and I didn't say that the thing is here, you can recall it yourself, did I say that?" ”

I recalled, and it seemed like he really said that.

I had a slight suspicion that the old man was playing tricks on me.

"Then you show me the way, how do I get closer and closer to what I'm looking for?"

"You go this way."

As he spoke, he pointed in another direction: "This time it's just half an hour." ”

I thought about it, and I was afraid that he would play tricks on me again, so I asked, "Is there a shortcut......

He pointed to the road: "This is the shortest way, otherwise it would only take half an hour." ”

I didn't hesitate and continued down the road.

This time, I was still in no danger, but the temperature started to be abnormal again.

It was getting hotter and hotter just now, and now it seems to be getting colder and colder.

I had only walked for more than ten minutes, and the temperature in the mountains was so cold that I shivered, and the breath exhaled was clearly visible.

And because of the sweat on my body, the sweat almost froze.

I can still tolerate the heat, but I really can't stand the cold, because I am wearing short sleeves, and if I continue like this, my body may lose temperature.

I quickly stopped, wondering what the hell was going on.

It's summer, and it's impossible for summer to be cold like this, and it's impossible for that section of the road to suddenly be hot like this.

Even if that old man wasn't human, he couldn't have controlled the weather, right?

The change of weather is the law of nature, so it can't be so hot just now, and it can't be so cold now.

It's an illusion.

I hurriedly put a psychological hint on myself, it is summer, the temperature is in the thirties, and all this is an illusion.

I hypnotized myself as I walked, and after walking for a while, the temperature returned to normal.

Soon, I was walking for half an hour.

This time I was too tired to do anything, so I quickly took out dry food from my backpack and ate a flatbread, which regained some strength.

As soon as I looked up, I saw the old man again.

The old man looked at me with a smile.

"Don't tell me, old man, you're taking a shortcut to a shortcut."

He pondered, probably pondering how to make it up.

I sighed and said, "Don't make it up, just tell me if I want to go forward or not, and how long will I go?" ”
