"Misunderstanding?" Mr. Qiu said, slightly startled.
"Yes." I nodded and said, "Although I am an outsider, I talked to them when I went into the mountain last time. If I am right, what you are paying attention to should be in Jiutou Mountain.
That evil-looking alchemy cauldron..."
"That's right." Mr. Qiu said and nodded.
"That elixir of youth is not used to refine the elixir of youth. You have misunderstood. That pill cauldron is used to complete the reincarnation of the Nine-Headed Xiangliu. The elixir of youth you want is actually the original body of the Nine-Headed Xiangliu.
, Last time, Ding Ling and the others went to find Xia Yu and encountered that thing. However, the conditions at that time were not mature and we could not bleed him.
I have so much time. This time, I went into the mountains with those people from the army. Looking at their looks, I knew they were not going for that thing. To be honest with you, I didn’t care about this matter at all.
I didn’t want to participate, so after taking them to the place, I stayed at the mountain pass without going in. Do you understand what I mean?”
Eyelids drooped, I smiled bitterly and said to him. After hearing this, Mr. Qiu was silent for a long time, then he came over and asked me: "So, you just watched them die?"
"No. It should be said that I didn't see how they died. You should already know this. When I came out of the mountain, I didn't see the big painted face. That boy should have told you everything.
, if you want to investigate, just look for him."
"Haha, you are right. In fact, he reported to the army as soon as he came out of the mountain. He also explained everything that happened during this period. Without him, you would not have such a leisurely life." Mr. Qiu said.
Then he picked up my hard drive and looked through it, and then asked me: "Did you know that after you came out, several more batches of teams entered the mountain."
"I know, I also know that they brought a lot of heavy weapons, machine guns, tanks, mortars and so on." I said and smiled bitterly.
"Then do you know that they have all disappeared?" Mr. Qiu said and sighed.
"Disappear?" I repeated, looking at him with narrowed eyes.
"Yes. It disappeared. It disappeared together with the valley, as if it was separated from the world. There is no trace at all. A few days ago, I sent people into the mountain to see what happened there.
What's going on? But when we passed the path you took, we found that we couldn't find the way we went. Even the footprints left under the water in the river were suddenly at the original entrance.
Stop it, do you understand what I mean?"
After making some gestures, Mr. Qiu said.
"I know." I was mentally prepared for this, and I said, just like our initial speculation, this place is actually at the junction of two spaces. To put it bluntly, it is two spaces stacked on top of each other.
The place where we are now is in such big trouble, if it is really like Gui Gui
As mentioned, if the entire area where Jiutou Mountain is located is a barrier, then when they remove the barrier, everything in the entire space will disappear, whether it is Jiutou Xiangliu or Feng Shen Yuqiang.
Everything, including those weirdos living in Jiutou Mountain, has disappeared.
"Do you think they have disappeared from this world?" The old man said when he saw my sad face.
"You don't think so?" I asked after being slightly startled.
"I'm not sure, so I want to ask you to verify it." Mr. Qiu said, pushing the wine glass on the table forward, and then looked at me with his scheming eyes and said: "The way into the mountain
, in fact, there is more than one. I know that when you first entered the mountain, you took another one. Now, I have asked the local department for assistance and am sparing no effort to find the driver.
Regarding the whereabouts of the old man, you, Ding Ling, you two know him and have gone in with him. Now, I want to beg you to go with him once to see if the space has really disappeared or is it the original path.
It was blocked by some special method. If that space really disappears, there is nothing we can do. But if the road is just blocked, we have to find other ways to get out.
"You haven't given up yet?" I asked, my heart sinking.
"Haha, how should I put it? I should be regarded as the person directly responsible for this matter, but the decision-maker is not me. To put it mildly, I, like you, can only be regarded as an executor and errand-runner at best.
Yes, we have to do whatever the people above ask us to do. Even if we really find the elixir of youth, we will not be able to enjoy it. Do you understand what I mean?"
The other party said with a bitter smile. I shook my head and said nothing.
"I know you are quite resistant to this matter, so how about you help me once? For the sake of getting to know each other, you can't let those who went into the mountains with you die in vain. Besides, then,
A team of many people entered the mountains and died inexplicably. How could the people on top make peace with each other?
Reply? The people above are more annoying, let’s leave them alone. Have you ever thought about how much they hope that people outside can run to save them if they are not dead yet? Saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda.
, Lu Li, at this time, you can’t act petty and ignore the overall situation!”
Mr. Qiu said, pretending to be an old scholar lecturing a little book boy. I took a sip of tea, looked at him, and then turned to look at Ding Ling. Ding Ling and Gui Gui were sitting next to me, and they remained silent until they saw me.
As if asking, she bit her lips and pretended not to make up her mind. I sighed. I didn't know whether to be happy or angry for a moment. Although it is a good thing for a husband and wife to follow each other, there is always a point.
It's time...
"If you don't say anything, I'll take it as if you agreed." Mr. Qiu said, looking at me meaningfully.
"Okay, so be it." I was about to speak when he said again.
"I..." I felt depressed for a while, but I didn't know what excuse I should find to excuse myself. I watched him greet the waiter to pay the bill and leave, and I felt like I couldn't pour out the bitterness in my stomach.
After he left, Gui Gui looked at me with his big eyes blinking, as if he didn't understand. I stretched out my hand and pressed the little girl's head, not knowing how to explain it.
"Do you really want to help him? Didn't you say that you won't care about their bad things anymore?" Ding Ling said, biting his chopsticks as if he was surprised.
"That's right. It's okay not to help. After all, so many lives are at stake..." I said, looking at her with a painful look on my face.
