Chapter 139 Chapter 23 Broken River Room

We all wondered what happened to the child in the pot, whether it had an extra leg, or turned into two or three, but when we went in, we found that the child had disappeared, and only Weilong was left facing the empty pot. Pan was surprised by himself.Just now we did see a rosy child steaming in the pot. Although the heat was lingering, it was not difficult to know whether there was something in the pot. Although Xu Shaode was greedy, he didn't dare to eat human flesh. When he saw that the child in the pot was gone, he yelled angrily: "You are a wolf, you dare to eat even a child, you eat it when you eat it, and you eat it like that!" Quick, why don't you save some!"

"I...I...I didn't eat it!" Wei Long argued red-faced immediately upon hearing Xu Shaode's scolding, and threw the lid of the pot in his hand to the ground. "Didn't eat? Where did the kid go without eating?" Xu Shaode was aggressive, but what he asked was what I thought in my heart, so I didn't try to stop him, Xiaoguang just cared about smelling the aroma, and didn't care much about our quarrel. "What are you smelling, don't you want to eat too?" I saw Xiaoguang sniffing the air vigorously, worried that she might be crazy, so I said while pushing her.

"This doesn't seem to smell like human flesh." Xiaoguang replied seriously. "Why not? Could it be that you have eaten human flesh before?" I said incredulously. "Oh, we've all seen it. If you just smell it and say no, you really think you are a professor." Xu Shaode hurt Xiaoguang, and then he didn't forget to scold Wei Long, "Hey, you eat people, why? You didn’t even vomit your bones, so you’re really not afraid of retribution?” I took a second look into the pot to make sure that the child in the pot was indeed gone, and after thinking about it again, I felt that no matter how big Weiron's appetite was and how fast he ate, he couldn't possibly eat a child in a few minutes. What's more, not even a single bone was spit out.Xu Shaode must also understand this truth, but he doesn't like Wei Long and deliberately finds fault here.I was so hungry that I was too lazy to tease others, so I let Xu Shaode be quiet for a while, he was hungrier than me, and it took a lot of energy to shout just now, before I could say anything, he closed his mouth by himself.Weilong said that after he walked in, he just wanted to drink soup or something, but when he came in, he found that the lid of the pot had been lifted, and after a closer look, the child had disappeared.I was startled when I heard it, could it be that the child died with a grievance, and after being steamed, he cheated on the corpse?I've heard of fraudulent corpses before, but this is the first time I've heard of steamed corpses as fraudulent corpses.

"Someone probably took the child away." Xiaoguang said, she walked to the pot and looked at the dying fire and sighed again. "Damn it, I went to a lot of oil and water this trip, and my trousers are a lot loose!" Xu Shaode complained again, "This kitchen is really strange, why is there no other food besides steaming children?" When I heard what Xu Shaode said, I also found it very strange. The kitchen is neither big nor small, but there are very few kitchen utensils and no other food. Could it be that people in the ancient underground city only eat children?Weiron saw that I believed what he said, and was so moved that tears and nose flowed together. He wanted to shake my hand, but I quickly avoided it.Xiaoguang took a few glances in the kitchen, didn't say anything, just asked me if I thought the kitchen was a bit weird.I said that I also found it weird, could it be that people in the ancient underground city can’t eat vegetables, so they love to eat human flesh, but since they love meat, why don’t they make some bacon or something, at least hoard some food.Xiaoguang saw that I was not serious, so he stopped talking and just smiled at me.

We walked out of the kitchen hungry, not feeling very lonely, Xiaoguang looked back every step, I thought she was fascinated by the smell of human flesh, so I worriedly wanted to drag her to go.Unexpectedly, Xiaoguang shook my hand first, then she turned her head to me and said with certainty: "We were wrong, this is not the kitchen!" "It's not what the kitchen is. Isn't it similar to our kitchen inside, but it's a bit weird." I replied disapprovingly. "Look, what's written there?" Xiaoguang pointed to a golden wooden board outside the kitchen and said.

The whole body of the wooden board was golden, and some bird characters were engraved on it. I have no education.The golden wooden board was hung on the so-called kitchen door, where there was a lot of steam, and no one seemed to know this kind of characters except Xiaoguang and Fan Li, so no one cared what was written on the golden wooden board.I really don't understand what Jin Muban wrote, but the person who knows best asked me, so I had to pretend to understand, so I just shook my head honestly. "It says Broken River House. I don't think it's the name of the kitchen. No one named the kitchen. It's not a big family here, so there's no need to waste it." Xiao Guang said, looking at the golden board.

"Broken River House, such an unlucky name, the river is broken, how can I drink water? I still have a broken bridge!" I said with a smile. "Could it be that the owner of the house is very educated, so he gave each room a name?" Weilong guessed. "How is it possible? You don't have eyes, and there is no name in the lobby. Why did you name the kitchen?" Xu Shaode was much smarter when he argued with Wei Long, and what he said made sense. "Anyway, it's not very safe here, I think it's better to change to another place." Xiaoguang said worriedly.

We couldn't find anything to eat, and no one wanted to stay. Since Xiaoguang said he wanted to leave, everyone agreed.So we found another room, and Fan Li helped the old man walk around, but it didn't look like we were all crying for hunger. I couldn't help but suspect that the bottle of water he brought had the effect of satisfying hunger.The ancient underground city is silent, and we seem to have walked into a space where time has stopped, as if the world has gone away from us.Not all the houses here are mold-dead, some have it, some don't.We also witnessed the rapid process of fresh dead people becoming moldy and dead. Every time we saw it, we had to vomit once. Except for the old people, we have not been able to hit the living people here head-on.

After finally finding a relatively clean room, the old man suddenly opened his eyes as soon as he put down the old man, and then murmured very softly.The old man was calling me in that special language, but the others didn't seem to respond. I walked over curiously, but found that the old man's eyes had been closed.The others were sorting out their things, trying to find out if there was anything to eat, or to find out if there was anything to drink. Even Fan Li didn't notice the old man talking.I was surprised, so I helped the old man's upper body, and the old man said softly: "Go and save Xiaodie, she can't die!"

"Who is Xiaodie?" I asked loudly in a hurry. At this time, everyone looked at me, and they all came over and stared at me without saying a word.After the old man said that, he fell asleep again. Everyone else was looking at me. I felt very embarrassed and strange. Why were they all staring at me, and why didn’t they stare at the old man.The old man suddenly spoke, although it was not very loud, but there was a sound of needle dropping in the ancient city, it was impossible not to hear a little movement. I was about to explain, but Xu Shaode asked first, "Who were you talking to just now?"

I was stunned by his question, didn't they hear me talking to the old man?I replied impatiently: "You have something wrong with your ears. Didn't the old man talk just now? I asked him who Xiaodie was?" "Did he talk?" Xiaoguang and Fan Li asked at the same time. "He didn't say anything. I didn't hear it anyway. Are you hungry?" Weilong looked at me like a madman, which made me very unnatural. I was a little anxious when I heard that, so I explained loudly: "I heard what the old man said just now, and I came over, and then he said, 'Go and save Xiaodie, she can't die!', how could you not hear it? " "Are you sure you heard it?" Fan Li asked in a complicated tone, not knowing whether to believe me or not. "Do you think I look like a liar?" I asked angrily. However, everyone reacted strangely to this question. No one answered the question, and they all looked a little guilty, as if they were liars.I thought it was funny, so I didn't bother with them, but the old man did speak, this is a fact, I can't be so hungry that I have auditory hallucinations.This matter just left it alone, as if it didn't happen, and everyone didn't continue to pester me about my hearing problem.Everyone dispersed again, checking the condition of the house separately, so as to find out whether there were other hidden dangers in the house early, or to see if there were any other living people. Seeing that the old man would not wake up for a while, I got up dejectedly, wanting to see if there was food in the house.I got up together and remembered that Xiaoguang had something to say to me in another room. At that time, everyone didn’t believe my translation. Later, there was an awkward situation. Xiaoguang probably wanted to say something sorry, although he didn’t really want to hear it. She apologized, but she really wanted to talk to her, so she said to Xiao Guang, "Did you have something to say to me just now?" Xiaoguang was not ambiguous, and immediately replied: "I want to ask you, what is the matter with Xiaodie that the old man said, did you just say it was Xiaodie?" I was very disappointed. Although I thought I didn't need Xiaoguang's apology, I still hoped that she would apologize in my heart. When I heard her question, I said angrily, "That's right, I just said Xiaodie, not anyone else?" "I mean, did he just say Xiaodie? Did he add a surname?" Xiaoguang asked nervously, not realizing my anger and disappointment. "I didn't say anything about my surname, so it's probably Xiao." I didn't have any passion to continue, and Xiaoguang gradually realized my displeasure, so I stopped asking. "Actually... I have something else I want to tell you... It's just not the time." Xiaoguang said with a look of embarrassment. "What's the matter? If you want to say it, you can say it. Why pick an auspicious day." I smiled. "You will know soon, I hope you can understand." Xiao Guangru was a different person, his tone completely changed, full of helplessness, pain, and mystery. This room is not much different from the other one. It is also surrounded by monster totems. Maybe no one has added lamp oil. The fire here is already flickering out. The dancing lamp shadows make everyone dare not close their eyes, let alone sleep. rest.Xu Shaode became bold when he was hungry, he was already looking for food by himself, but he suddenly yelled again.I thought to myself, maybe this house is also weird, Fan Li stayed to take care of the old man as usual, and everyone else went to see what Xu Shaode found. When we all passed by, Xu Shaode was gesticulating at a room. I frowned and looked in the direction he pointed, but after seeing clearly, I couldn't help thinking to myself: "How is this possible?" The house we saw was nothing special or outlandish, except that it was hung with a golden board on which the characters of birds were engraved.Although I don't know the characters for birds, neither does Xu Shaode, but when Xiaoguang explained it in another room, she talked for quite a long time. We felt familiar with these two or three patterns at first glance, and we found them clearly when we looked at them again. It is the broken river room of the room just now.When we came out of the house, we didn't turn back or turn around. Logically speaking, we wouldn't go back again. Could it be that the ghost hit the wall again? Xiaoguang didn't speak, and immediately walked into the Broken River Room. I was worried that there was danger inside, so I followed in immediately.This room is no different from that one. I think we have indeed returned to the original house. Although the fire has been extinguished, there is still steam in the pot, the lid has been removed, and the children in the pot are gone. , This is exactly the same as the situation just now!Xiaoguang also felt strange, she walked out of the broken river room again, and after confirming the bird character on the golden wooden board, she walked in again. "What is the meaning of Broken River House? Do you know if it has any allusions?" I don't think Broken River House is too simple. Since Xiaoguang can understand it, I want to ask her about the origin of Broken River House. . "I don't know, I only understand the literal meaning, how can I understand so much, you think I'm a god." Xiaoguang said helplessly. "Being able to understand the language of animals is not a god." I answered casually, but Xiaoguang's face suddenly changed, as if he had seen a ghost. "This is not the same room." Weilong walked in and broke the embarrassment. I didn't know where I said something wrong, so I quickly grabbed Weilong's life-saving straw and wanted to change the topic. "How do you know?" I asked deliberately raising my voice. "Just now...wasn't I angry just now when someone said that I ate a child?" Weilong squinted at Xu Shaode when he said this, but Xu Shaode didn't understand the meaning behind his words. The lid of the pot was thrown on the ground, and you see, the lid of this room was placed on the stove." We were just comparing the facilities of the house and didn't pay attention to the details at all. The lid of the house was indeed placed on the stove and did not fall on the ground.In this way, we did not go back to the same room, but why is there another broken river room here? What is the broken river room used for, what else can it be if it is not a kitchen?After finding out that it was not the same room, the atmosphere did not ease, because there was no food in the broken river room, and we were still very hungry. If we continued to be so hungry, we would turn from searchers and rescuers to victims.When we returned to the lobby, Fan Li was still sitting quietly with his eyes closed, and he didn't look hungry at all. I wondered more and more whether he had hidden something to eat. I always thought the Broken River House was weird, so I went out alone to see if there were Broken River Houses in other houses.Xiaoguang was worried that I would go out alone, so he followed me out, but there was no danger along the way, but he felt very disgusted when he saw mold dead people.The structures of other houses are quite different, but they are all in Yue style, without exception.Just as I thought, every house has a broken river room, and there is a stove in the room, and a pot is placed on the stove, but the child in the pot has disappeared.Looking at the name of the Broken River Room, we wondered about its origin, but we couldn’t figure out why every house has a Broken River Room. Could it be that the kitchens here are really called the Broken River Room, but I think Xiao Guang’s words are true That's right, Broken River Room can't be a kitchen. We walked back after seeing most of the houses, and Xiaoguang was very close to me along the way, almost touching.Xu Shaode was dying of hunger, he had forgotten his fear, wandering around the house we are staying in alone, unexpectedly found him a real kitchen.In fact, the house we stayed in may have a kitchen, but we first discovered the broken river room and concluded that it was the kitchen, so we didn’t look for another kitchen. Most people think that there is only one kitchen in the house.In the kitchen that Xu Shaode found, there were some cured game and brewed wine. I smelled them one by one carefully, and found Qiongyao Niang.Qiongyao Niang is a kind of wine from a small country in southern Xinjiang in ancient times. It is used to drive away the tendons of gods. We have seen it in Meili Snow Mountain before.At that time, Qiong Yao Niang fell into the hot spring, and countless fairy tendons flew up, like a white water wall, which was extremely spectacular.Of course, if I can't drink this kind of thing, I won't drink it, not to mention that there are not as many fairy tendons here as there are in Meili Snow Mountain, so there is nothing to be afraid of, this thing is won by crowd tactics. We were all very happy when we found the food, and started eating in the kitchen. Fan Li didn't follow, and we didn't think of him until we were full.So, we gave him wine and food, but Xiaoguang stopped me and told me to wait.When I saw this, I wondered whether Xiaoguang was full of lust and wanted to do something with me. I was not in the mood for this situation, but I didn't know how to refuse.After Xu Shaode and Wei Long walked out, Xiaoguang pulled me to a corner, and after brewing some feelings, she actually asked again: "When you listened to the old man, did he say Xiaodie's last name?" "Why did you ask this again, he didn't say it!" I replied in frustration. "Think about it again, is it... Could it be that the old man said something else that you didn't hear clearly?" Xiaoguang refused to give up. When I was asked by her, I even felt that I might have missed the old man's words. The old man did not mention Xiaodie's last name. I don't know why Xiaoguang cares so much about Xiaodie, but just now no one admitted to hearing the old man speak, now it seems very unnatural for Xiaoguang to ask like this.When I translated the words of the old man for the first time, everyone seemed weird and regarded me as a lunatic.I got a headache thinking about it, so I just said that the old man didn't say anything about Xiaodie, if you want to know, you can ask yourself.Xiaoguang lowered his head in disappointment, I was most afraid of seeing a woman sad and disappointed, crying and hanged herself, so I said to her: "You go back first, I will organize the food here and take it with me, so as not to have to worry about it again on the way." Hungry." "Okay, be careful yourself." Xiaoguang left lazily, and I looked at her back and felt sad. However, we may not know how long we are going to stay here, and we must bring food, so I sorted out the food one by one, and brought all the edible ones.The sorted out food piled up into a hill, and I didn't have a package with me, so I wanted to go back to the lobby to get something to pack the food.Unexpectedly, when I was about to walk back to the lobby, I heard everyone talking. I didn't pay attention to what they said at first, but I stopped immediately when I took another step, because I heard the shocking content of their conversation !
