Hearing my words, Yi Shi looked at me even more surprised. "What did you ask about this old man? Have you ever talked to him?" Yi Shi looked at me with a puzzled expression and asked.

"I've talked to him." I nodded for granted and replied. "And I've talked more than once, but... what this old man said has always made me feel very confused."

"Confused?" Yi Shi couldn't understand what I meant even more. "What are you confused? Have you really talked to this old man?"

From Yi Shi's expression, I could see that Yi Shi obviously felt incredible about me talking to the old man about this, just as it was difficult for this to happen.

"Is there anything strange about this?" I continued to look at Yi Shi beside me, not understanding why Yi Shi had such an expression.

Yi Shi continued to look at me for a while before he slowly spoke: "Tell me what the old man said to you first and make you feel confused?"

"Just... anyway, just say some inexplicable words, I even think this old man is mentally abnormal, and I don't think his behavior seems to be very normal. Could it be that this old man is mentally abnormal?"

I really tend to be inclined to this idea in my heart, because I have only seen this old man twice, and what this old man said to me twice made me feel confused, just like we are not people in the same world.

I still can't figure out why this old man said these inexplicable words to me. If the old man has mental problems, I naturally don't have to take these words to heart. If this old man wants to tell me something, what does he mean?

So I want to first learn about this strange old man from Yi Shi. At least Yi Shi can help me eliminate one possibility, right?

Sure enough, after Yi Shi looked at me again with puzzled eyes, he slowly answered: "I don't know anything else, but this old man is not a mentally abnormal person."

"Is that?" I couldn't help but be stunned. Yi Shi obviously had no need to deceive me on such things. Since Yi Shi had such an answer, it means that my idea was wrong. The old man had no mental problems.

"But... no matter how I look at him, he doesn't look like a normal person." I frowned and continued to speak to Yi Shi. "Since I entered the village, I saw this old man dozing around at the door of the house at the entrance of the village. Last time I came to this village, I also discovered the existence of this old man, but I didn't care at that time."

I did find this when I came to this village with Yi Shi last time. But Yi Shi told me that the elderly living here had strange tempers, so in my opinion, it was not a big deal to have some strange people.

It's just that when these strange people say something strange to me, I think I have to take all these words to heart.

"Although his behavior is indeed very strange, this old man is not a mental illness. Let's put it this way, with this old man, he can protect the safety of the entire village. Although I am not very clear about his origin, this old man's origin is definitely mysterious." Yi Shi replied.

Protecting the safety of the entire village?

Yi Shi's answer made me stunned. I didn't expect that the old man who didn't seem to be very normal had such a responsibility!

This village doesn’t look big, but it’s definitely not small. According to Yi Shi, all kinds of experts live here. For such a place where strange people are gathered, it’s not that easy to protect the safety of this place. The old man who always likes to doze off at the entrance of the village actually has such a responsibility, which is enough to prove the old man’s power!

However, the person with more doubts on his face was Yi Shi. Yi Shi couldn't help but frown slightly. After being silent for a while, Yi Shi raised his head and looked at me and said, "Are you sure that the old man had spoken to you?"

"Of course, sure." I nodded. I didn't mean to joke about this. "Is there anything strange about this?"

"This is so strange." Yi Shi replied. "Because you don't know much about this old man, it seems like a miracle that you can say a few words to him."

"What's wrong? Could this old man be unhappy to talk to others?" I was stunned again, not expecting that Yi Shi would have such an answer.

"Not only is he unhappy to talk to others, but if anyone dares to get close to him, he will probably end up being ugly. This old man's temper is indeed very withdrawn." Yi Shi replied. After Yi Shi said this, he looked at me again. After a while, Yi Shi continued to speak: "You won't be beaten by this old man, are you?"

"Uh! That's not." I waved my hand quickly, but I didn't expect that the old man's temper in Yi Shi's eyes was so irritable, and it could be seen that Yi Shi was not joking with me. Is it really as Yi Shi said?

But...if this is true, it would be strange. Since this old man has an extremely bad temper, someone may be beaten up by this old man if he gets closer, why didn't this old man attack me? Could it be that this old man still has special care for me?

"No way?" Yi Shi looked at me with a look of disbelief. "You have never been beaten by this old man? It shouldn't be."

"This old man is very vigilant. He stopped me with his eyes when I wanted to get close to him twice, but this old man had never attacked me. What's going on?" I asked Yi Shi.

At least I look like Yi Shi knows this strange old man better than me, so I can only ask Yi Shi for such questions.

"How can I know this?" Yi Shi couldn't help but roll his eyes. "In theory, this is impossible. Why doesn't this old man beat you up? Can you still make a special move?"

When Yi Shi said this, he looked dissatisfied, as if he had suffered some grievance.

When I heard Yi Shi's words, I couldn't help but feel a little strange when I looked at Yi Shi.
