He had been close to Bai Su's side all the time, regardless of his superb skills and huge figure, but the look of leaning against Bai Su's side was like a child relying on a nanny. At this time, there was an inexplicable sound in his throat, and he strode to the right again. His strides were big, and each step was almost two meters. After seven or eight steps, he had reached the corner on the right. Before a coffin. When he stood still, he hesitated a little, but then he turned his head, stretched out his hand to the left corner - completely opposite direction, and pointed. This time, I am absolutely sure: in Siqiao Huangtang's sign language, the relevant directions are all opposite, pointing east means west; pointing up means down.Now he was pointing to the left, of course he was talking about the coffin on his right.

After trying to figure this out, although there is no great trick, it is still a discovery, so I snorted softly. I didn't need to say anything, Bai Su could already tell from my expression what I was thinking of. She smiled at me, nodded, and said, "He said, it was the coffin in front of him." At this time, everyone didn't have time to pay attention to why he was pointing at the back, but talking about the front of him.Wen Baoyu walked forward first, and when he got to the coffin, he looked at it, then shook his head, and immediately pretended to be clever, and gestured to the giant, shaking his head and hands again, meaning that it could not be that coffin. coffin.

The giant stared at him for a moment, then turned his head to look at Bai Su, Bai Su smiled and gestured to the giant a few times, the giant responded immediately and answered. Bai Su said: "Xiaobao, why don't you say it's not this one? He said it must be, lift the lid of the coffin, people can go down." Wen Baoyu still shook his head: "I am very familiar with these Chen Changqing's ancestors, and I can recognize every coffin. I have also used X-ray to see through this one. On the left is a long halberd, and on the right is a pair of coffins. There is absolutely no way for the long sword. If he doesn’t believe it, invite him to try and see if he can open the coffin lid!”

Bai Su "spoken" the meaning to the giant, the giant looked very puzzled, took a step forward, stretched out his hand, grabbed the edge of the coffin lid, and lifted it up forcefully. The result of his action was unexpected—he failed to open the coffin lid, but lifted the huge coffin half way up! I estimated that the coffin weighed at least two tons. It seemed that he lifted it without any effort. When Wen Baoyu saw this situation, he shouted: "Put it down slowly!" The giant couldn't hear it, but when he saw that the coffin lid couldn't be opened, he slammed down the coffin heavily and lifted it up several times, making a dull and loud sound in the cellar, which was extremely terrifying.

It is unknown which ancestor of Chen Changqing is lying in this coffin, it is considered to be a calamity, the nose of the coffin may have been messed up, it fits the description of "the bones are also scattered". Bai Su also hastily signed sign language, but the giant looked as if he didn't understand why he couldn't open the coffin lid. The reason behind this is actually very clear.Of course, after they entered the tunnel from here last time, the coffin had been moved. Of course Bai Su understood this, she signed to the giant, and the giant stretched out both hands this time, and pushed lightly, but he used a bit more force, pushing the coffin to collide with another coffin , There was another loud bang.

Wen Baoyu murmured to himself: "The ancestors of the Chen family, there is no wonder, this giant is a Kuhun." After the coffin was pushed away, the ground was still paved with hemp stones, just like any other place. The beautiful scenery on a good day immediately floated over, and at that place, he paused a few times. Wen Baoyu smiled and said: "You are as light as a swallow, how can you tell the truth? Simply ask the giant to try it without bothering the two hosts!" Liang Chenmei said: "Xiao Bao is a good idea!" Bai Su gestured sign language to the giant, the giant immediately jumped forward, picked up a gust of wind, jumped two or three feet high, and fell heavily towards the place where the coffin was placed just now.

I only heard a solid sound, and I was really worried that if the stone slab wasn't thick enough, it would break through him right now. Of course, the granite slab did not move at all, and the sound it made was by no means hollow, indicating that the ground below was solid. Then, under Bai Su's command, the giant jumped a few times elsewhere, and the sound it made was the same. Liang Chenmei said: "It's filled to death!" Wen Baoyu said: "Even if it is filled to death, it can still be dug out!" I took a breath: "I'm afraid this project is huge!"

Wen Baoyu said: "There is such a strange thing, no matter how big the project is, it has to be carried out. Anyway, Chen Changqing left a lot of money. If you don't spend some, what do you keep it for?" I smiled and said, "That's right, this matter—" Liang Chenmei hurriedly said: "Leave it to us!" Wen Baoyu just took advantage of this to get away, and said repeatedly: "Very good! Very good!" It is certain that this matter will be extremely difficult to carry out, but the decision is simple, and a few words can be regarded as a conclusion. Bai Su said: "I'm afraid it won't take three to five days for this project to be completed. Heavy machinery can't be used, so we can only use manpower. I guess..."

When she said this, she stopped, and I said, "It's impossible to estimate—who knows how thick this big rock is? It may be a foot!" Huang Tang said: "No matter what, it can't be finished before midnight today!" When Huang Tang said this, everyone was astonished, because it was nonsense. Not only could it not be completed before midnight today, but it could not even be started. Wasn't he talking in vain? I just wanted to say a few words to him, but in a flash, I understood what he meant, opened my mouth wide and couldn't make a sound. Huang Tang said again: "Have you thought about it too? After today's midnight, this giant is on a different path from us, and we will never see each other again. Whether what he said is true or not, there is no way to prove it. If he talks nonsense, we will count it as If you turn this house over, you won’t find anything authentic!”

What he said is very reasonable. After hearing this, the beautiful scenery of Liangchen was very discouraged and looked at me. I sighed: "This is the first, and the second is, if a tunnel is deliberately filled to death, it is not as Xiaobao thought, it can always be dug out, and it may become no trace at all!" What Bai Su meant was: "This giant will never talk nonsense. However, it's hard to say whether he can find a proper way after the massive construction work!" This opinion is the same as mine, because it is very easy to fill up a tunnel so that no one can find it.

Liangchen Meijing was very persevering, and wanted to express her dissent, Wen Baoyu said: "Actually, it's very simple to know whether the giant is talking nonsense!" Bai Su sighed: "Yes, you can find out if there is a real plane crash!" As soon as Bai Su said this, everyone fell silent. When a plane crashes and hundreds of people die, that's a tragic thing, and no one would want that to happen. But the giant said it with certainty, and, in his life, he also experienced it twice.It seems that as long as you believe his words, such a tragedy will never happen. He made a big fuss at the airport just to avoid a tragedy.It's a pity that although the few of us can accept his weird statement, the officials in charge of handling the incident don't believe it at all. If the tragedy really happened, it would prove that everything the giant said was true.Otherwise, the "two-way life" and so on are all his nonsense! I believe that everyone else is like me-I want what the giant said to be true, but I don't want tragedy to happen.But it’s hard to have both, these two things, if you want to come, come together, if not, then don’t have both, there is no choice! Wen Baoyu's personality is optimistic, never sentimental, he spread his hands: "What should come will come, and I can't think about it, I just think of one thing——" When he said these two sentences, he stared at the giant intently, and I was taken aback: "Xiaobao, don't act recklessly, this giant is extremely powerful, once you sneeze, you won't be able to eat it and walk around." Wen Baoyu glanced at everyone with an eager look on his face: "Theoretically speaking, his return life is a backward life, that is to say, time is backward for him, not forward!" Huang Tang snorted, and I nodded and said, "As far as we understand this matter, it should be so." Wen Baoyu said: "This is weird!" He always spoke exaggeratedly, so he called out and didn't attract any special attention. But then, the question he raised made everyone say "ah", thinking in their hearts: Yes, how could this happen? What Wen Baoyu said next was: "This is really strange. Why does time go back in one day? The advancement of time is constantly going on. Every minute is moving forward, so it should be going backward every minute. !" The pounder felt that the question he raised was very reasonable, but there was no answer. Bai Su said: "Not only is it changing every minute, but every second, every thousandth of a second, every ten thousandth of a second, and one hundredth of a billionth of a second is moving forward - if it goes backwards in this way -" When she said this, she had a strange expression on her face. I also immediately said: "We have no chance of meeting him at all, and he can't be with us at all! One goes forward and the other goes backwards. Although there is a point of intersection in theory, that moment passes by, a billionth of a second or Shorter, how can I be with him for so long?" Liang Chenmei said: "Yeah, it's even more confusing - although his life is a backward journey, but, at least on this day today, he is moving forward, or from midnight in the morning to midnight the next day. Shizhi is not regressing, it’s just that after today, he has regressed to yesterday.” Wen Baoyu shook his head endlessly: "That's not right either, everyone see—" As he spoke, he took a step forward: "A step is considered a day. Today, he took a step forward. After today, he took a step back—" As he spoke, he took a step back and stood still with a strange expression on his face. I lost my voice: "If this is the case, he will not be able to go back to yesterday, come and go, take a step forward, take a step back, he should always be today!" Liang Chenmei put her head on her hands: "It's even more chaotic! Bao is chaotic!" It is indeed more confusing! Wen Baoyu took another step, and then took a step back: "Unless he takes one step forward and takes two steps back, then he can go back to yesterday." As he spoke, he expressed it with actions. If he took one step and took two steps back, of course he was one step back from his original position. He seemed to have made a big discovery and was very excited: "It must be so!" Liang Chenmei smiled wryly: "What is this, it's a mess." Wen Baoyu said: "In the so-called return life, one day is taken as a unit. In this single day, his time is the same as ours, moving forward; then, at the end of the day, he goes back two days and advances one day. .In this way, his whole life forms a backward life!" Wen Baoyu's analysis made me admire a lot, and I said loudly: "Well said, we didn't think of this before you came!" Wen Baoyu was praised, his face glowed even more, and he continued to play: "Time is related to the movement of the sun, moon and stars. His situation is basically caused by a disordered combination of time and space. Of course, it is also caused by the movement of the universe." A kind of mutation, just happened to reflect on him!" I laughed: "This can only be regarded as a hypothesis." His answer was very fluent: "Bold assumptions, careful verification!" Liang Chenmei was a little disdainful: "How to verify the Dharma?" Wen Baoyu pointed at the giant: "It just fell on him. Theoretically speaking, at midnight today, he will go back two days in time, and then start his yesterday." I don't know how he intends to "seek proof", so I listen to him with great interest. Wen Baoyu said: "The critical moment is at midnight, from one to zero o'clock the next day, we will not see him again until tomorrow, and he will not see him again until yesterday, so before midnight -" He just said this, and Bai Su and I yelled together: "No!" Wen Baoyu was surprised: "I haven't said what I want, why can't I!" I said, "Don't try to tie him up, lock him up, or do anything similar to prevent him from leaving!" Wen Baoyu looked dissatisfied, and rolled his eyes: "What will happen then?" Liangchen Meimei snorted: "It's very simple, he tore your bones apart before you did anything!" Wen Baoyu still wanted to argue, but he looked at the giant, and he didn't dare not to seriously consider the point that Liangchen Meijing raised. I believe his original intention was to lock up or tie up the giant, but his brain moved quickly, and in a second, he said: "Who said to tie him up! I mean Yes, treat him to a good meal. Among the food—” I didn't wait for him to finish, and shouted: "Slap your own mouth! I even came up with such a dirty idea!" Wen Baoyu shouted: "This may be the greatest and most important discovery in the history of human science." Bai Su didn't take it seriously: "Adding medicine to knock him unconscious, I don't think it can stop him from going backwards in time and space. Don't forget, the first time he started to go backwards in time and space was after he died!" Wen Baoyu was taken aback for a moment, and then he put his hand on his mouth and slapped him: "Yes, I thought I was wrong, even if you die, you can go back to yesterday, and being in a coma can't solve the problem!" I was angry and funny: "Don't try to change his two-way life!" Huang Tang disagreed: "It's better to change, this person...is handed over to me by the director in public to guard, if he disappears for no apparent reason, who would believe that he returned to yesterday?" When he said that, he still looked at me and Bai Su with great complaints. It can be seen that he was always worried about this matter, and the blame was Bai Su's idea to the director, and he handed over the giant to him. I have promised to explain it to him, but he is still so worried that there is nothing I can do. I said: "The only thing we can do now is to surround him at midnight and see how he disappears." Wen Baoyu said: "I want to hold his hand!" When the group of people discussed this point, a very strange sound suddenly came out from the giant's body, which made people stunned. That burst of sound was not from the whitish giant's throat, but from within his body. It sounded like a large pot of water was boiling. At the beginning, everyone was indeed stunned, but within a second, everyone couldn't help laughing.Even Huang Tang, who had always been worried and frowning, smiled. Because what happened to us in the past few hours was so strange that we became frightened birds. Whenever something happened, we immediately thought of the weird aspect, but did not think in the usual direction. So, when I first heard the sound coming from inside the giant's body, I was taken aback, not knowing what strange thing happened again. It was only when he regained his composure that he remembered that everyone's body would make a similar sound, as long as his stomach was hungry again. That is a physiological phenomenon caused by hunger. The so-called "stomach growls with hunger" is exactly this kind of situation.It's just because the giant's body is huge and its abdominal cavity is naturally wide, so that burst of sound sounds particularly astonishing. I hurriedly said: "He's hungry, Xiaobao, what do you eat here?" Wen Baoyu laughed: "Yes, there is a big one. Five minutes, no, it will be delivered within ten minutes!" As he said, he ran away, ran to the door of the cellar, and stood still: "Everyone has something to eat, is it necessary to stay in this cellar again?" Bai Su said: "It's not necessary for the time being, we have to fight for every second we spend with this giant, we can put aside the things that can be put aside for a while. Everyone, go up!" Wen Baoyu shouted loudly: "Go to the kitchen!" As he said, he rushed out, but he was fast, not as beautiful as the beautiful day, the two of them passed Wen Baoyu's side in a blink of an eye. When Bai Su took the giant, Huang Tang and I followed, and arrived in the huge house, in the incomparably huge kitchen, there were already a lot of food on the table. This huge house was originally owned by Chen Changqing. Chen Changqing had the habit of storing food. The kitchen was connected to a large refrigerator. According to Chen Changqing, the refrigerator was of the "long-term war of resistance" style.The amount of food stored inside is unimaginable. There are at least ten heads of each kind of cattle, sheep, pigs, and deer, some raw, some cooked, and all kinds of seasonings. The rest of the chickens, ducks, geese, etc., are even more out of the question.All the food is processed in a special vacuum, and the temperature of the refrigerator, Chen Changqing especially imitates the low temperature of the place where the mammoth mammoth (the original dog character is punctuated by horse) was found in the North Pole, which is minus 52 degrees Celsius. At such a low temperature, the explorers discovered a group of ancient mammoths—not fossils, but preserved very intact at low temperatures.The explorers managed to dissect the meat, which was still fresh and perfectly edible.As for the estimated time, those mammoths may have been frozen there since the Ice Age, more than five million years ago. Therefore, Chen Changqing used to say that the batch of food he preserved was not only kept at low temperature, but also, after being vacuum-packed, he estimated that it could be kept fresh for ten million years. Whether it can really keep fresh for 10 million years, I am afraid that no one can prove it in practice, but there is absolutely no problem for a hundred years, and the food in the refrigerator can only last for 20 or 30 years. Therefore, when Wen Baoyu laboriously carried a roast lamb to the table after being quickly processed by microwaves, it was steaming hot and full of meaty aroma.Bai Su made a gesture to the giant, and the giant let out a roar, stretched out his big hand, grabbed the whole sheep, and bit it with his mouth open, but he didn't see any bones spit out, only his cheeks kept agitating, making a loud noise. A series of strange sounds, in a blink of an eye, half of the sheep was left.Hong Ling, who has been a savage before, would be amazed at such a wolfish way. I watched the giant eat, and I had countless questions in my mind, but no matter what the question was, I had to go through Bai Su to communicate with him, so I made a gesture to Bai Su, indicating that I have many questions to ask. Bai Su didn't answer, Huang Tang said again: "I see, after he finishes eating, send him to the detention center!" I hurriedly said: "No, we are lucky to have met such a strange person, and we have not been able to get along with him for a long time, how can we let him go so easily!" Huang Tang's expression was still hesitant, and I persuaded him again: "Farewell to this giant is not only a matter of distance, but also a matter of time. There is no hope of meeting again. So, with him Every minute and every second we spend together is precious." Huang Tang frowned: "I strongly advocate that at least before midnight, send him to the detention center, otherwise, I will be in big trouble!" I waved my hand: "Let's talk!" My attitude has been recognized by everyone except Huang Tang, and Huang Tang has nothing to do. It was also because of this that many things happened later, which proved that Huang Tang's worries were not without reason.And I didn't take his thoughts into account at all, that's my fault. Huang Tang pointed at my nose and yelled at me. There were a lot of bad words in the process, so there is no need to elaborate (who would write down what people scolded me in detail), and finally, he said in an extremely indignant tone: "Wesley, you Humans have always been self-righteous, so they are also extremely selfish. For your own curiosity, ignore other people's life and death, and talk to yourself, nothing more, I know people like you, it is my fault for seventeen or eighteen generations!" I have never been scolded so badly by others in my life, but this time the fault is my own, I have nothing else to do but smile wryly. After Huang Tang scolded, he walked away, and many things happened later, but that is another story! At the moment, not only me, but Wen Baoyu is also quickly using a small tape recorder to write down the questions he wants to ask. The giant has been eating with his head buried, his hands are flying up and down, his jaws are constantly moving, the sound of chewing is like a galloping horse.The most astonishing thing was that he could watch his belly gradually swell up until he ate a pregnant woman who seemed to be five or six months pregnant. Then he stroked his belly, burped a dozen times in a row, and swallowed again. After eating a large piece of pork, he let out a sigh of relief and stopped eating.
