Chapter 138 Chapter 22 Don't Understand

When Xu Shaode opened the pot, his saliva was already drooling a lot. When he swept the steam away with his hands, he was startled by the child in the pot, and immediately put the lid on the pot.Wei Long and I were also taken aback. We thought it was a delicacy, but it turned out to be a child, a person!Xu Shaode was immediately dejected, and cursed loudly, saying that it spoiled my interest, and after searching for a long time, the aroma came from a pot of steamed human heads, it's really fucking unlucky. The only steaming pot in the kitchen, even if there is still some food here, we dare not touch it again, for fear that it is made of human flesh.The child had been steamed for so long, and he must have lost his life, so it was too late for us to save him, so we all walked out of the kitchen.I kept thinking about the kid in the pot, and I always felt very awkward, and a vague thought flickered in my mind.Before we entered Well No. 10, we saw a child standing at the mouth of the well, and then saw children again and again, and even saw many children beside the unconscious old man on the salt well.These children don't know what their origins are, they don't have any innocence, and they seem to be filled with a sinister air.

Walking back to the hall, Fan Li and Xiao Guang just woke up, I breathed a sigh of relief, and I just didn't need to explain to Wei Long.They woke up very quickly this time, faster than usual, perhaps because they were so hungry that they woke up hungry.I told them that the aroma comes from a pot of steamed children, so don't smell it too hard to avoid nausea. "Really a child?" Xiaoguang was very surprised, and seemed unwilling to believe that the aroma came from such a dish. "Needless to say, people say that a tiger's poison does not eat its children. I think this family probably cooks and eats their own children." Xu Shaode said angrily, "I said there must be something wrong with so many children under the salt well. Which woman is especially capable of giving birth, she gave birth to seventy or eighty babies in one litter, and when she couldn't feed them, she cooked them and ate them, it's so fucking inhuman."

"Your wife can only have seventy or eighty babies per litter, and sows don't have such a strong reproductive ability. I don't think the people in this ancient underground city are kind." I licked my chapped lips and said. "Are you sure it's a child?" Fan Li asked, as if he didn't believe what we saw. "Could it be that you suspect that we have swallowed things to ourselves, so you made up a lie to lie to you?" I replied angrily. "That's not what I mean, I just find it strange." Fan Li replied unhurriedly, which made my anger disappear all at once.

We didn't bring anything to eat when we came in. No one thought that we would not go out for such a long time, so we had to continue to be hungry.I was hungry and thirsty, and remembering that Fan Li had a bottle of water, I wanted to ask him for a drink.I thought that with a good friendship, Fan Li would be lenient and would not reject me in front of everyone, but how did he know that I was rejected by him just like Wei Long. I was angry and wanted to walk out of the hall, but the old man suddenly groaned a few words, and he was about to wake up, so I stopped in my tracks.Xiaoguang immediately went to the old man's side, wanting to hear what the old man was saying, but the old man only woke up for a while and then fainted again.When the old man woke up, he groaned a few vague words, which sounded familiar to me, so I asked Fan Li and Xiaoguang if they understood what the old man said.

"Is it your Guangxi dialect?" Xu Shaode hurriedly asked from the side. "No, although there are many types of Guangxi dialect, it is by no means a dialect of Guangxi." I denied it. "I can't hear it either. It's not like our dialect, and they don't look like Guangxi people." Weilong sat down on a chair after speaking, as if trying to conserve his energy. Xiaoguang and Fan Li shook their heads, expressing that they did not understand what the old man said. I don’t know how the language of Yue people is different from modern people, but if Xiaoguang can understand the language of Yue people, how can he not understand their words? Woolen cloth?Or maybe there are many dialects in Yue, and he doesn't speak the common language of Yue, so Xiao Guang doesn't understand?When we were discussing, the old man woke up for a few seconds. He tried his best to speak, but he fell into a coma after only one or two sentences. .

I got closer this time, and I could hear what the old man said a little more clearly, but Xiaoguang and the others couldn't understand what the old man was saying.I looked at everyone and felt very strange in my heart. It was not that the old man said strange words, but that I was the only one who understood the old man's murmured words by accident. I’m not sure if the old man’s words are ancient Vietnamese, but I have heard these words from my father many times. At that time, when he went hunting in the mountains, he often talked to himself like this. Sometimes he also taught me to say these words. It’s a pity that at that time When I was young, I only cared about hunting a few more hares. I didn't have the heart to memorize these weird dialects, so I didn't know many.These words are not like Guangxi dialect, nor are they Mandarin, nor are they the language of the Mulao people in Luocheng.I saw that everyone didn't understand the old man's words, and they were secretly proud, thinking that they were a bit knowledgeable and even talented.

"What he said is, save Xiaodie quickly, she can't die, if she dies...here..." I translated the old man's words, and everyone was suspicious, as if they thought I was lying. "What's the matter here, tell me?" Wei Long didn't understand, thinking that there was something to say later, but he didn't see me and spoke again after waiting for a long time. "It's gone later, you didn't see the old man roll his eyes." I replied angrily. "Brother Wanzang, do you really understand or pretend to understand? Don't talk nonsense at this time." Xu Shaode was so hungry that he couldn't stand up, so he just sat on the ground and looked at us weakly.

"Am I such a vanity-loving person?" As soon as I finished speaking, I felt that I did love vanity, so I immediately turned around and said, "You don't have to believe me, I don't know who the old man is talking about Xiaodie. Pretty?" "So what if it's beautiful, maybe it's a goblin, who only sucks men's yang energy." Xu Shaode said. "Do you really understand?" Xiaoguang was worried, as if he had a lot to say. "I believe he's not lying." Fan Li glanced at me and answered for me. Afterwards, no one spoke anymore. It is estimated that they were all hungry and dizzy, and lost the strength to speak.The house was filled with fragrance, and my mouth was drooling, but when I thought of a child steaming in the pot, I immediately felt very sick again, and immediately swallowed the saliva into my stomach.Fan Li and Xiao Guang were looking at each other, I thought to myself that they are not ashamed, and now they are sending eyeballs secretly, without checking the time.Xu Shaode was so hungry that he yelled and said he wanted to go out and leave this damned place.However, he didn't hide in the darkness anymore, he was different from before, and became a little normal.Although he was making a lot of noise, I finally felt relieved, maybe there was bad gas in the coal tunnel just now, that's why Xu Shaode was a little abnormal.

"Didn't Brother Wanzang hug a big civet just now? Now we are almost starving to death, let's kill that cat!" Seeing me giggling, Xu Shaode said to me. As if I had been hit with a stick, I woke up immediately. I just climbed down from the salt well and forgot about the big civet.God knows where this cat went, if Xu Shaode didn't mention it, I would have forgotten about it.Xu Shaode didn't believe that I really lost the cat, and kept saying his reasoning, saying that if we starve to death now, the cat would be worthless.If we eat it now and get a new life, then this big civet will die well and deserve praise.I also felt strange, the big civet should be with us, it came to me by itself, why did it leave without saying goodbye, could it be in danger?

Wei Long was very hungry. He was buried in the ground for several days without a drop of water.He hesitantly suggested eating the child in the pot, and if he could go out in the future, he would give the child a grand burial, and he would never break his promise.I shook my head as soon as I heard it, and said that this is too bad, no matter how hungry I am, I can’t eat a child. Although he is dead, it’s better not to behave like a beast.Wei Long sniffed the aroma vigorously, but he still remembered that there was a child in the pot. He couldn't help but want to go to the kitchen. I wanted to stop him, but the old man suddenly woke up again and started talking intermittently in his sleep.I figured that the old man must know something, so I stopped dealing with Weiron and let him eat his fill. Others gathered around when they heard the old man talking in his sleep.

"Xiaodie, Xiaodie can't die... Hurry up and save us, hurry up..." The old man spoke in pain, exhausting his strength to say this sentence, which is similar to the previous sentence. After I translated it, Xu Shaode still didn't quite believe that I could understand it, but seeing that I didn't seem to be pretending, he said that the old man probably spoke Guangxi dialect.I was too lazy to argue with him, so I asked who Xiaodie was, but the old man stopped talking, closed his eyes, and ignored me whatever I asked.I can only say a little bit of this kind of thing, but I didn’t expect it to be of great use today, and I feel very regretful, I knew I should learn more. Fan Li took out the small bottle that he carried with him and poured the water in it for the old man to drink. After drinking the old man's face became much ruddy. Keep it, I don't want to grab it clearly, so I can only look at the bottle to quench my thirst.After the old man finished drinking, he coughed a few times and became a little more conscious than before.He was eager to talk when he woke up, but he kept coughing and couldn't say anything. I communicated with the old man using the weird words my father had taught me. At the beginning, the old man was still panting with difficulty, but after hearing my words, he regained his energy and immediately stopped coughing.I looked at the old man with joy, and it seemed that I would soon know the origin of the ancient underground city from the old man.The old man didn't wait for me to ask any more questions, so he took the initiative to say: "Xiaodie can't die, you must not let her die, otherwise this place will be completely destroyed!" I was startled and wanted to continue listening to the old man, but he rolled his eyes again and couldn't wake up.This time I explained to everyone what the old man said, but they all looked surprised, as if watching a lunatic.Xu Shaode patted my shoulder, touched my forehead, touched his own, then frowned, looking very distressed. "I don't have a fever, why are you talking nonsense?" Xu Shaode said to me. "You just have a fever, where am I talking nonsense." I said angrily. "You were talking nonsense just now, and we are not stupid, so you have to be more realistic when you lie." Xu Shaode laughed dryly. "Which ear of yours heard that I was lying?" I didn't expect Xu Shaode to say that, and I was extremely disappointed, I dared to feel that the fat man had betrayed, and he didn't help me in times of crisis. "Are you really not lying?" Xiaoguang asked tentatively, but I knew she didn't believe me either. "You don't believe me either?" I turned my head and asked Fan Li, but he didn't seem to hear me asking him, and ignored me with his eyes fixed on other places. "Brother Wanzang, don't ask them anymore. You're just bluffing. Don't treat us as fools, okay?" Xu Shaode said a little unhappy, as if I had insulted him. I think everyone is a little weird, maybe they are jealous that I can understand the old man's words and communicate with the old man, so they all call me a liar.However, after interacting with them for so long, they should not be like this. Could it be that I heard it wrong, but I did hear what the old man said.Xiaodie should be a woman's name. Who is this woman and where is she now? From the old man's tone, this woman seems to be in danger. Why is the old man so worried about her safety? Everyone just regarded me as a lunatic, and all stared at me with strange eyes. I felt very uncomfortable, so I hid aside and didn't want to pay attention to them.I took a peek at Xiao Guang, she looked extremely anxious, and Fan Li was also a little unusual, showing a little bit of uneasiness.I ignored them angrily, thinking that they would be bored to death, who told them not to believe me.Xiaoguang was whispering to Fan Li at this time, and I thought even more angrily, what the hell are these two doing? Are they really so thick-skinned that they dare to flirt and scold in a place where so many people have died. Who knows, Xiaoguang suddenly walked towards me, I immediately turned my head to look at the ground after seeing it, thinking that if I come to apologize, I can still forgive you.Xiaoguang came over and said to me: "Can you come with me, I have something to tell you." I felt a little better when I heard it, and thought that you all know that you have wronged me, and it is still too late to apologize, and I am not such a difficult person.However, just when I was complacent, Weilong yelled loudly, and then cursed a Guangxi swear word: "I hang your mother, what... how did this happen?" I was not happy to hear Wei Long yelling. It is rare for Xiaoguang to take the initiative to apologize. When he didn't yell, he chose to yell at this time. If I knew it, I would let him stay in the coffin.We want to see what happened, but we can't go to all of them. We have to leave one person to watch over the old man, so as to protect the old man in case of danger.Fan Li took the initiative to stay and solved our problem. I suddenly remembered the last time Xu Shaode yelled in the kitchen, let's see what's going on. Fan Li also took the initiative to stay. Did he know the situation in the kitchen?Xiaoguang didn't see what I was thinking, so he pushed me to think about it, and I didn't stay any longer, and led everyone to the kitchen of this house.The kitchen is not far from the lobby, and it can be reached within a short walk, but the location is not obvious, in a corner.According to the current architecture, the kitchen should not be in an unventilated and dark place, so that the cooking fume is not easy to dissipate.However, it is not certain that this ancient underground city is an ancient building, or that the people who built it wanted to burn the yin in the corner with the fire of the kitchen. Ancient buildings pay more attention to feng shui, yin and yang, and do not care much about scientific factors. I walked towards the kitchen full of doubts, wondering if there was another child in the pot, or two or three, but I didn't know that I went in with everyone and was immediately dumbfounded.
