The rainy days in Ningchuan are Chen Xian's favorite, because only in this kind of weather can the old city feel so quiet, as if all the hustle and bustle have disappeared from this world, and the whole person will be at ease. With this gray sky gradually calming down...
But at this moment, Chen Xian was a little tired of this kind of peace. Maybe it was because he had experienced too much, or maybe it was because he got used to getting along with people in recent days. He gradually became used to living with everyone from liking to be alone. There are also groups of people when they go out, and there are very few people like this one now...
It was very quiet in the car.
The road is also very quiet.
On this gray and rainy day, it seems that the world has quieted down.
No matter how many people come and go on the street, Chen Xian's weird sense of loneliness can't be dispelled. It's like no one in this world is related to him. They are all strangers with familiar faces passing by, and he is just from a foreign land. Strangers like them, even if they walk on the street with an umbrella like them, they will feel out of place.
Chen Xian hated this feeling, so he walked faster.
The old liar knew that Chen Xian was coming, so he prepared meals in the grocery store early, and finally moved a small bench to sit in front of the store, like an empty nest old man, he seemed a little lonely, but it wasn't true So lonely, at least seeing him smoking a cigarette and waiting for Chen Xian with Erlang's legs crossed is quite leisurely.
"Grandpa Ge!"
"Yo, are you coming?"
Seeing that familiar figure walking towards him step by step, the old liar hurriedly got up with a cigarette in his mouth, and greeted him with a smile.
"What about Xiao Muhe and the others? Why are you here alone?"
"They have something to go out today, and they said they would come to see you in a few days."
Chen Xian walked to the door of the store, and instinctively supported the old man who was walking towards him. Although he knew that the old man in front of him was a legendary master who was equal to the head of the Secret Service, but... In Chen Xian's view, the identity of the old liar's master is very Indifferent, more of that liar grandpa who played with him since he was a child.
Being suddenly supported by Chen Xian, the old liar couldn't help but startled for a moment, and then smiled.
The old liar is a very strong person. Anyone who is familiar with him knows this. If someone sees him as an ordinary old man, he will think that you are scolding him, that is, Chen Xian is the only exception...
"Today we eat hot pot, you can drink with grandpa."
"Hey... OK!"
Chen Xian doesn't like drinking, he has been like this since he was a child, but the old liar, an alcoholic, has tried every means to get him to drink with him for ten years. It is undeniable that Chen Xian also sells his face. Drink three or five cups, and it's the same today... A table of hot meals was cooked by the master of Yin City himself. Chen Xian could see that there was nothing else on the table except for a few small dishes he used to drink. The dishes are all my favorite.
Before getting down to business, Chen Xian felt that it was necessary for him to have a good meal with the old liar.
At the dinner table, the old liar seemed to be in high spirits, as if he hadn't had such a happy meal for a long time, and he was drinking wine while chatting with Chen about Meishan's gossip from the beginning to the end.
"You went to Meishan in another world?" The old liar took a sip of his wine, as if everything he said to Chen Xian was in his expectation, his face was full of a successful plan smile, "Seeing that pool No?"
"I see." Chen Xian nodded, and couldn't help asking with doubts in his heart, "Master Ge, did you know that we would travel to that ghostly place?"
The old liar hummed, and waved to Chen Xian, motioning for him to help him hold the lighter on the counter.
After he lit his cigarette and took two puffs in enjoyment, the old liar continued.
"Of course I know, because I've been to that place."
Hearing what the old liar said, Chen Xian was not surprised, because after returning from Meishan, he had been thinking about it... The old liar's shadow was in this matter from the beginning to the end, could it be that he arranged all this
The old man should know a lot, far more than he told himself.
"I have absorbed all the blood of the ancient gods in the pool, and I seem to be stronger than before." Chen Xian looked at the old liar calmly, his eyes rolling all the time.
"It's normal to become stronger." The old liar nodded with a smile, "If there is no ancient blood pool in that place, I wouldn't arrange for you to go there."
The old liar is not as secretive as before, perhaps because of the matter of the ancient blood pool in Meishan, he is willing to confide a lot more information with Chen Xian now.
"Is there any connection between the ancient blood pool and me?" Chen Xian's expression was not serious when he asked, on the contrary, there was a kind of leisurely gossip and gossip with the elders in the family, "I seem to become stronger every time I enter the ancient blood pool , the last time in the south of the city was also... "
"It's best not to tell outsiders about this kind of thing." The old liar picked up a chopstick and ate the braised pork slowly. Although the tone of his speech was relaxed and messy, there was still a hint of solemnity in his eyes, "This matter Tell it and you'll be in big trouble."
"I know." Chen Xian nodded and replied, "Except for what you saw with your own eyes at the scene...Only you know."
"See it with your own eyes?" The old liar glanced at Chen Xian and asked curiously, "Where are so many people, are you not afraid that they will betray you?"
Chen Xian thought for a while and said, don't be afraid.
"Your heart is big enough, if I..." the old liar laughed and said jokingly, "Such things like this will definitely kill people."
After finishing speaking, the old liar raised his wine glass and slowly took a sip of the high-grade liquor in the glass.
"I thought you couldn't help but ask me a bunch of questions, why did I end up asking you... You don't have any sense of accomplishment!" the old liar sighed.
"I want to ask you, but the question is... will you tell me if I ask you?" Chen Xian asked tentatively.
The old liar thought for a while, and replied: "Of course he won't say anything!"
"That's it!" Chen Xian looked at him helplessly.
"Actually, I can't blame Grandpa for being a fool... The main thing is that I am not the only one who has the final say... What's more, that old Chen Ba told us before he left..." The old liar sighed, as if he was also very helpless, " All in all, those things are not as simple as you think, listen to Grandpa's advice, don't ask now, you will know later... "
"Okay, I won't ask, let's eat." Chen Xian smiled, and didn't press any further questions.
Suddenly, the old liar turned his head and looked aside. It was the suitcase that Chen Xian used to hold the meat saw.
"Didn't you say that there is something wrong with this knife? Take it out and let me take a look for you!"
"it is good."
At this moment, the suitcase containing the meat saw knife was brought from the old liar. At first it looked like an antique, but after a simple cleaning, Chen Xian accidentally discovered that this suitcase is extremely practical. I don't know how many years old the piece is, but it is still very smooth to use, especially after cleaning, it is as bright as new, and there is no trace left by the years.
The old liar took the meat saw from Chen Xian's hand and played with it familiarly. The look in his eyes became more and more curious, and he silently looked at the weapon in his hand that should have been extremely familiar but unexpectedly felt strange.
"It's strange... It doesn't look like it has changed... But it seems to be more alive than before... It hides a higher vitality... It's like a living weapon..."
"When I was in contact with it, I received some strange messages." Chen Xian took a sip from his glass and said calmly, "It said it was called the Dirge of the Ancient God."
Hearing this strange name, the old liar also had a thoughtful expression.
"The Dirge of the Ancient Gods..."
At this moment, Chen Xian's cell phone rang suddenly.
He took out his mobile phone and saw that it was a call from Lu Yisheng.
"Boss!"
As soon as the connection was made, Lu Yisheng's voice of wanting to cry came from the other side of the phone.
"Your descendant brother has been drenched in water!"
Chen Xian pressed the center of his eyebrows, and asked patiently: "Go back and change your clothes when it's raining... Why do you call me for such a trivial matter?! If you want me to drive to pick you up, I promise to let you I can't see the sun the next day."
"..."
Lu Yisheng was silent for a few seconds, then said pitifully.
"Are you not done yet?"
"It's not been two hours since I came here, what a fart you are!"
"Okay, okay, then I'll go back and change by myself." Lu Yisheng sighed, and he was even more aggrieved, "If Li Laoliu hadn't been so idle playing kicking trees on the street, I wouldn't have been kicked Drenched like this... Boss, you want to help me get revenge when you go back!"
"Kicking trees on the street?! Are you two brats in kindergarten?!" Chen Xian was so angry that he couldn't speak clearly.
"Isn't that just a joke... I'll go back and change my clothes first! Li Lao Liu went out for a stroll first! Let's meet up at the snack street then!"
"I see, don't rush, I will contact you later."
"Aren't I afraid that you will forget... Besides, I really like chatting with you, boss... How about you accompany me to chat and go home... It's raining heavily and there is no car to pick me up... I'm lonely and cold..."
"Are you going to hang up?! If you don't hang up, I'll come and hang up on you!"
"Beep...beep...beep..."
