Chen Mo looked at me with his eyes wide open, his face turned red, but he couldn't say a word.
Although I felt a surge in my heart, I still pretended not to know anything and said with a confused face: "Chen Mo, I, why are we here? Have we already walked out of Shennongjia?"

As I spoke, I rubbed my temples.
Pretending to be stupid is fake, but the sharp pain in my temple is real.
Unexpectedly, Chen Mo reacted very quickly. The confusion on his face disappeared immediately, and then he looked at me calmly and said, "We are still in the hinterland of Shennongjia. You fainted on the way.
, we met an herb collector living in seclusion in Shennongjia, and it was the old man who saved us."
"So that's it. When I saw the house, I thought we had walked out of the hinterland of Shennongjia." I said, glancing at the medicine bowl in Chen Mo's hand, and there was only half of the dark medicine juice left in it.
"Oh, I was feeding you medicine just now. Now that you're awake, drink it by yourself. This old gentleman seems to be really capable. He said you'll wake up after drinking this medicine. I didn't expect that you'd just wake up.
Drink half of it and you'll wake up." After Chen Mo finished speaking, he handed the medicine bowl in his hand towards me.
I took the medicine bowl, glanced at the medicine in the bowl, and drank the medicine without hesitation.
I don’t know if it’s because the medicine has cooled down or for some other reason, but when I drank it, it felt very bitter, and it seemed to be mixed with a taste that was difficult to swallow.
I had just finished drinking the medicine when there was a knock on the door.
"Chen Mo, we're out for dinner." Uncle Wu's voice came from outside the door.
"Fifth Uncle," Chen Mo heard the knock on the door and walked quickly to the door, then opened the door suddenly, "Fifth Uncle, my brother is awake, can you please come in and give him a diagnosis and treatment?
See if your condition is relieved."

Uncle Wu put his head through the door and stared at me with his two eyes.
To be honest, when I first saw Uncle Wu, I was really frightened.
If I saw someone with this kind of appearance at night, I would definitely think it was some A-Piao who sneaked out.
In our general perception, masters who live in seclusion in the world all have the image of wandering clouds and wild cranes, but the fifth uncle in front of me has a greasy look.
His entire Tianlinggai hair had fallen out, leaving only a sparse ring on the back of his head and around his ears.
The old man is a bit fat, but he doesn't have the simplicity of a fat person. Instead, there is an aura hidden between his eyebrows that makes him look a bit ferocious at first glance.
"Hello, old sir." I said hello first. After all, people cannot be judged by their appearance, and besides, it was because of him that I saved my life.
"Brother woke up so quickly. It seems that he is in good health." When Uncle Wu said this, his feet had already crossed the threshold, and then he walked to my side.
I finally understood why Chen Mo never wanted to live in this house.
Because this house is too clean.

However, he definitely didn't reject the house because it was clean, but the spotlessness in the room was in sharp contrast to the sloppiness of Uncle Wu.
How could a person who doesn't even know how to clean his own body keep his house so clean?
"I really want to thank Uncle Wu for saving my life."
Chen Mo gently touched me with his elbow, who had been staring at the old man in a daze, and then clasped his fists at the old man and said.
"What's the point? Hanging a pot to help the world is originally the duty of a doctor. Besides, it's not an old man's behavior to refuse to save someone." Uncle Wu waved his hands, and then turned his eyes to my face: "This little brother just said
When I wake up, the breath in my internal organs is not there yet.
It's stable. It's better to lie down on the bed and wait for a while, and then I'll take your pulse. Only when the pulse is accurate can you feel it." The old man said, although he looked smiling, but for some reason, I always felt that his
That face is like hiding a knife behind a smile.
"In that case, I will lie down on the bed first. Chen Mo, you and the old man can go have dinner." I said to the old man and Chen Mo.
"Uncle Wu, doesn't Zhou Cang need something to eat?" Chen Mo asked.
"He shouldn't eat for the next few days, just drink my decoction. This way the burden on the internal organs will not be too great," the old man said.
"In this case, Zhou Cang, you have a good rest first, and I will come over after dinner." Chen Mo said.
After Chen Mo and the old man left the room, I lay down on the bed honestly.

After all, although I was unconscious in the mountains before, my consciousness was still clear. I listened to every word of the conversation between the old man and Chen Mo. Therefore, in order to save my life, I have to obey the old man's words for the time being.
Although he is a specific person, I am not yet able to fully accept him from my heart.
I was lying on the large carved bed and looking at the furnishings in the room, I felt an indescribable discomfort.
There is actually nothing special in this room. They are all the necessities for an ordinary bedroom, including a large carved rosewood bed, a low round table, two square stools, and two large mahogany wardrobes.
However, I don’t know why, the more I looked at it, the stronger the feeling of discomfort in my heart became.
What is wrong?
I thought about it silently in my mind, slowly looking at each piece of furniture.
The large carved bed and the low round table are all of ordinary style, so there is nothing wrong with them.
Suddenly, my eyes fell on the two mahogany wardrobes directly opposite the rosewood carved bed.
This wardrobe is probably too big.

I finally understood where the uncomfortable feeling in my heart came from.
The difference between the volume of these two large wardrobes and the volume of other furniture in the room is too big, and they are simply out of proportion.
The height of this mahogany wardrobe is almost to the roof.
You must know that the old man still lives in a tile-roofed house, and the house is built in the mountains, so the shape of the house is similar to that of the Jiangnan water town, and it is built very high.
I roughly estimated that the mahogany wardrobe in this house is almost three meters high.
Whose wardrobe is so high-end?
Suddenly, I had an intuition in my heart that there must be something special in this closet.
Thinking of this, I got up from the bed and slowly approached the closet.
I stood in front of the wardrobe, and I vaguely felt that the smell emitted by the wood on the mahogany wardrobe was a bit familiar, but the smell was very light. If I didn't smell it deliberately, it would almost not exist, so I
I have no idea where I encountered this scent.
Although it was clear daylight, my heart was still beating involuntarily when I opened the closet.

This place is still in the hinterland of Shennongjia, and the old man’s house is built so close to the Yantian mountain stream, which makes me doubt the true identity of this old man.
So, after I took a deep breath, I put my hand on the door knocker of the closet handle.
However, after I pulled hard twice, the closet door still didn't move at all.
I couldn't help but check the closet door and found that it was not locked.
At this moment, I couldn't help but be a little shocked.
Could it be that this large wardrobe can be locked from the inside?
If it can really be locked, does it prove that the back of the wardrobe is actually another passage?
At this time, I suddenly heard a soft whisper outside the door. It must be that Chen Mo and the old man were coming over to feel my pulse after dinner.
I immediately bounced off the closet and onto the bed, closing my eyes and pretending to be resting.
"Hey, did this little brother fall asleep again soon?"

After Chen Mo pushed open the door, the old man's voice came.
"No, sir, I just closed my eyes and rested my mind." After hearing the old man's words, I immediately opened my eyes and said in a low voice.
"Chen Mo just introduced me, your name is Zhou Cang, right." The old man came over with a smile, and then sat down on the edge of my bed.
"Yes, sir, I'm sorry to bother you." I replied politely.
"In this deep mountain, I haven't seen anyone for many years. I don't know how happy I am to have you two young people here," the old man said, stretching out his hand, "Here, put your wrist on my hand.
"
After listening to what the old man said, I put my hand in the old man's palm.
However, I put my hand in the old man's palm for a while, but he did not feel my pulse, but stared at it with wide eyes, as if he was looking at a rare treasure.
I couldn't help but want to remind him several times, but Chen Mo quietly stopped me.
Finally, the old man spoke: "They are really descendants of Zhou Shide. Even their hands look exactly the same."
