Chen Xian is not a person who is good at chatting and sociable, so in many cases he feels too silent, but in the current situation... no matter how good a communicative person is, it is inevitable that he will fall into silence, because the atmosphere is so embarrassing Tianji, even Lu Yisheng didn't know how to start a conversation.
The old man was not very wary of Chen Xian and the others, at least it seemed so, so after the child opened the door, he led everyone into the house.
The area of the mud-tiled house is not too big, and the layout of the living room is also extremely simple, with a look of dust everywhere, but fortunately, there are many small handmade benches in the room, so Chen Xian and the others don't have to stand awkwardly It's like a village committee meeting at a farmer's house in the countryside. People move a small bench from person to person and sit in a group.
The old man and the child were sitting on the side of the inner room, and they hadn't spoken at all the whole time. The former only cared about smoking, lowered his head and wiped the firewood for chopping firewood on the mountain, while the latter sat on the bench with a smile and stared at Chen Xian and the others. Look.
The host didn't speak, and guests like Chen Xian didn't know what to say. Although Lu Yisheng wanted to find an opportunity to start the conversation several times, but helplessly... every time he opened his mouth, he would be overwhelmed by the awkward atmosphere. If you block him back, especially when that ugly little boy is staring at him, as long as the eyes of both sides meet, he can't help but feel horrified.
What Chen Xian wants to do most now, the answer is very simple.
He wants to go back.
Take everyone back to the real Meishan, and then solve Meishan's troubles and go back to Ningchuan to enjoy the happiness.
But it's not easy to go back. At this stage, I haven't even found a clue... I want to ask this old man with a strange face, but I am afraid that it will be risky to speak out, or else I will be regarded as a fool by others.
Tell him that we came from time travel
Chen Xian muttered in his heart, feeling that this kind of statement was not reliable, at least from the feeling, the old man probably wouldn't believe it.
"Did you really come from outside the mountain?" The old man wiped the hatchet in his hand, with a burning cigarette in his mouth, and said without looking back, "I don't think you are from outside the mountain... the white mist just The people who recognize us in Meishan Village... It is impossible for outsiders to come out of there..."
"What will happen if outsiders meet those white mist?" Chen Xian asked curiously, and he was relieved, finally breaking the awkward atmosphere of silence.
"I will be punished by the gods." The old man smiled mysteriously.
"Punishment..." Xu Yanan said suddenly, frowning and asked, "Will he die?"
The old man raised his head and thought for a moment, then nodded and shook his head.
"Death does not exist for the gods, and those who are punished by the gods will also break away from the boundary of death, and they will become one with this mountain." The old man's smile was very bright, as if he was saying a very beautiful thing , but there is no longing for this kind of beauty in the eyes, "Return to the embrace of the gods, and the gods will give them grace..."
Although what the old man said was a little unclear, but from the fact that he mentioned being one with the mountain... it doesn't sound like a good word.
Just when everyone was thinking about the meaning of the old man's previous words, the old man's next words shocked them, because they never thought that the old man would mention this point...
"I saw you falling from the sky." The old man said, shaking the ashes. "At first I wanted to go and have a look, but I had work in hand, and you were a little far away from me... I was going to take a look at night, but I didn't." Thinking of you coming to the door yourself."
The corners of Chen Xian's eyes twitched twice, the expression on his face didn't change much, but there was a turmoil in his heart, because he had never thought that his group fell from the sky in advance, and it seemed that this meant that he had really traveled through time.
"Did we fall from the sky?" Lu Yisheng couldn't help asking, his eyes widened, "From how high did they fall?"
"I didn't see clearly." The old man shook his head, speaking in a very sincere tone, as if he was fooling Chen Xian and the others, "You were falling when I saw it, at least a hundred feet above the ground, I thought Is it because I am blinded by myself, otherwise why so many people fell on the ground without even making a sound."
Hundreds of feet.
Hearing this approximate data, Chen Xian and the others looked at each other for a while, only feeling that they were dreaming.
Let's say the old man is too far away to be sure of the distance, even if he cuts a hundred feet into fifty feet... that's about 150 meters from the ground!
Falling to the ground from this height, not to mention Lu Yisheng and others with poor physical fitness, even Chen Xian couldn't bear it, it couldn't be the unscathed appearance after waking up.
Could it be that the black light parasite saved us
With this question in mind, Chen Xian asked the old man, when we fell to the ground, were we scattered or gathered together? Did you see anything else besides us
"It's gathered together, but it's a bit scattered... I didn't see anything other than you guys." The old man smiled and snuffed out the cheap cigarettes in his hand, leaving behind a wisp of choking smoke , "You are not gods from the sky, are you?"
Chen Xian spread his hands, with an indescribably helpless expression on his face.
"Do you think we look like gods?"
"That's true." The old man laughed loudly, perhaps because his smile was sincere, and his slightly distorted face was much more pleasing to the eye at the moment, and his facial features became more coordinated, " How can there be a fairy who falls headfirst!"
Hearing this, everyone couldn't help touching their faces.
Fortunately, it's okay, if something happens... Even if you don't die, you will have to be disfigured!
"Old man, we won't hide it from you." Chen Xian said this, a little anxious in his heart, thinking that there was still a mess waiting for him to deal with on the Meishan side, and he had a terrible headache, "We came from another world. Parallel space, parallel universe, you know, right?"
"What?" The old man became confused for a moment, and didn't understand what Chen Xian meant.
"It's the world outside this world. You can think of it as a fairyland. We're just ordinary people there." Lu Yisheng blew calmly. For older people, his rhetoric is easier to understand.
Of course, ordinary people will definitely not believe it, unless they are such witnesses who witnessed the crowd falling from the sky.
"Is that so..." The old man looked at everyone present in surprise, and asked tentatively, "What are you doing in Meishan?"
"It fell down accidentally." Lu Yisheng continued to help Chen Xian answer, "We want to go back, but we can't find a way to go back now."
"Want to go back?" The old man only noticed this, and his tone became excited, as if he wished they would leave immediately, "If you can't find a way, you can ask that god in Meishan."
"Ask it?" Lu Yisheng was taken aback for a moment, then turned to look at Chen Xian, "Boss, should we ask?"
"You can try." Chen Xian nodded and said, although he didn't want to have an encounter with that so-called god from the bottom of his heart, but for now this is the only way.
Everyone will not travel to this place for no reason. Since the place where they landed is also "Meishan", there is likely to be some kind of connection between the two, but this connection is too deep to be found.
"Old man, what does that god look like?" Lu Yisheng asked curiously, "Have you seen it?"
"I haven't seen it." The old man shook his head.
Hearing what he said, everyone couldn't help being stunned for a moment, thinking that you said that you swore that there is a god in this mountain, but you haven't even seen it
"Don't look at me like that." The old man smiled, as if he had sensed something from everyone's eyes, and explained, "Actually, we can't see God, but we can communicate with it... If you want to find it, I I can take you there."
"Then trouble the old man."
After Chen Xian finished speaking, he was about to stand up with the old man, but at this moment his finger accidentally scratched the edge of the wooden bench, and the wood thorn cut a wound no bigger than a grain of rice on the belly of his index finger.
He glanced at the wound calmly, and didn't take it seriously. He put his hands in his pockets and waited for the wound to heal itself. After all, he has suffered from serious injuries, and such minor injuries are not worth it at all. Not to mention, it will automatically heal and return to its original state in a few seconds.
But half a minute later, when he followed the old man out of the mud-tiled house, he suddenly realized something, and hastily pulled out his right hand that was in his pocket.
The bleeding from the wound had stopped, but the wound... didn't show any signs of healing.
"what happened… "
Chen Xian murmured, glanced left and right, and saw that the people around him didn't notice his movements, so he gritted his teeth and scratched hard on the pad of the other hand with his nails, the warm blood instantly it flowed out...
After another half a minute, Chen Xian went to observe again.
The wounds on both hands have not healed, but the bleeding has simply stopped, and the slow self-healing speed is just like that of ordinary people...
"The gravity of this world is the same as the original world..."
Chen Xian's abrupt words immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"The gravity is the same?" Lu Yisheng immediately replied with a puzzled expression, "But we will get tired after walking for a short distance, and feel that our legs are heavy..."
"That has nothing to do with gravity."
Chen Xian gently clenched his fist, feeling the tingling pain from the wound from time to time, only felt that his heartbeat had never been so fast.
"It's us... our abilities... seem to be taken away by this world..."
