When Jiang Cheng and Zhao Hai heard the voice of an old man, they were so excited that they could not calm down. Although the old man was asking them to leave, for Jiang Cheng, it was just a battle of words.
"We just want to ask you some information. We have no ill intentions. We will never hurt you, nor will we hurt a flower, a grass, or a bug here." Jiang Cheng responded respectfully and sincerely.
"Go back, go back. This is not a place for you to stay." The old man's tone was not as gentle as the last time, but it was still a warning with a friendly tone.
Although Jiang Cheng also felt the change in the old man's tone, he did not know why he came today, so how could he leave so easily? Moreover, Jiang Cheng knew that if he left this time, he would not dare to grasp the next opportunity to come back.
Because he did not dare to offend the old man in someone else's territory, Jiang Cheng did not speak anymore. He quietly stood outside the wooden house with Zhao Hai as before.
The old man in the wooden house felt that the two people in front of the house had no intention of leaving, but he did not intend to see them. So, he turned off the lights in the house, and then the fireflies outside the house also lit up. The outside became so dark that one could not see their own fingers.
Jiang Cheng guessed that it was because there was a layer covering the house, so the moonlight could only shine through. At this time, there was no way for Jiang Cheng to know the situation outside. The only thing he could do now was to wait for the patriarch to come out to see him.
At this time, Zhao Hai, who was next to him, wanted to speak, but was stopped by Jiang Cheng, hinting that they should not disturb the rest of the old man inside. Otherwise, everything they did today would be reduced to ashes, and they did not even know if they could walk out alive.
The elder inside the wooden house quietly observed everything that was happening outside in the darkness. He looked at Jiang Chengshi, who was different from ordinary people, and his heart was filled with anticipation. He was looking forward to the arrival of this person who was filled with righteousness and extraordinary ability.
At night, because the atmospheric conditions were different from the outside world, without the thermal insulation of the atmosphere, the temperature here quickly dropped, causing Zhao Hai, who had an ordinary body, to shiver in cold, and his teeth were chattering. Jiang Cheng, who had an extraordinary body, also felt particularly cold in such an environment, but Jiang Cheng used his accumulated True Qi to fight against the external cold, so that Jiang Cheng could still stand steadily.
Late at night, Zhao Hai could not hold on any longer, and Jiang Cheng could not do anything with Zhao Hai in this state, so he moved to support Zhao Hai, wanting to wait a little longer. But when Zhao Hai's physical condition really could not hold on any longer, Jiang Cheng carried Zhao Hai on his back, planning to find a place to drive away the cold.
When Jiang Cheng left, he looked at the small wooden house meaningfully.
The old man in the small wooden house saw all of this, and when Jiang Cheng carried Zhao Hai far away, the old man lit up the door of the small wooden house, and said in a loud voice, "Come in, young man."
At this moment, Zhao Hai, who was on Jiang Cheng's back, happily collapsed from the cold. Jiang Cheng also excitedly carried Zhao Hai into the small wooden house. After entering the small wooden house, Jiang Cheng politely thanked the old man, and quickly took care of Zhao Hai, letting Zhao Hai's body slowly recover.
All of Jiang Cheng's actions were seen by the old man, and the old man's secret was slowly revealed.
After taking care of Zhao Hai, Jiang Cheng turned to look at the old man, who was already over a hundred years old, and turned off the light. Just as he was about to take the liberty to ask about the old man in the hall. The old man spoke first.
"What's your name?" The old man still used his clear voice to ask.
"Jiang Cheng."
"Yes, yes. I'm the person you're looking for, the patriarch of the Gulat Family, Cherv. "Cherv introduced himself sincerely.
When Jiang Cheng heard Cherv's introduction, he finally dared to look straight at Cherv's face. Half of Cherv's face had been destroyed, and the wrinkles of old age made him look especially haggard, completely incompatible with his loud voice, and even more incompatible with the amiable image he had imagined.
When Cherv saw Jiang Cheng looking straight at his face in shock, he said, "Very surprising and scary, right?"
"No, no, I just feel that senior must have experienced a lot of things." Jiang Cheng was trying to think of a way to get Cherv to talk about his topic.
Cherv looked at Jiang Cheng with a strange expression and said, "You want to hear it?"
Jiang Cheng looked straight into Cherv's eyes and replied, "Very much."
"Then let's rest first." Cherv said and turned off the light.
Jiang Cheng looked at the pitch-black environment in front of him and felt extremely nervous.
At this moment, Cherv said, "In the past, this was a prosperous place. There were mountains and rivers here, and it was definitely not worse than the current center of France. People lived happily, but one day, a foreign race wanted to occupy this place, and the indigenous people here refused to give up the land left by their ancestors, so they defended this land to their death. Unexpectedly, the foreign race used advanced weapons to raze this place to the ground, and I was also injured by the bomb, but unfortunately, I survived.
"In the entire family, I was the only one who survived, so in order to save the land that my family sacrificed their lives to protect, I forced a group of people to build a house on this razed wasteland. It's the three-story house where you thought I was when you first arrived. Thus, I fought with the foreign race alone on this desolate land, and in the end, this place slowly became what it is today. "
As Cherv spoke, he couldn't help but cry.
Jiang Cheng listened carefully to Cherv's experience, and he couldn't help but sympathize with this elder who had been exterminated. At this time, however, Jiang Cheng was still very confused, because he still had a lot of questions that he hadn't figured out.
When Jiang Cheng wanted to ask more questions, Cherv said as if he had the ability to predict, "Rest, young man."
Jiang Cheng could feel Cherv's fatigue, so he didn't disturb him anymore. He quietly thought about everything that had happened today, but after a cool breeze, Jiang Cheng entered the dream that Cherv had set for him.
In the dream, Jiang Cheng experienced Cherv's experience again as an outsider.
The next morning, when Zhao Hai woke up from his dream, he saw Jiang Cheng lying next to him, so he quickly woke up Jiang Cheng. "Cheng Ge, Cheng Ge, wake up!"
When Jiang Cheng, who was in someone else's dream, heard someone calling his name, he struggled to get rid of this dream that didn't belong to him.
When Jiang Cheng woke up from his dream, he found that he felt as if he had been beaten.
Zhao Hai looked at Jiang Cheng, who was in pain, and asked with concern, "Cheng Ge, are you alright?"
"I'm fine, I'm fine. Is it sunrise yet?" Jiang Cheng asked eagerly.
"Not yet, what's wrong with Cheng Ge?" Zhao Hai asked doubtfully.
Jiang Cheng hurriedly got up and said, "Let's go, let's go. We have to leave here before sunrise."
Zhao Hai didn't understand Jiang Cheng's thoughts, so he had to follow Jiang Cheng.
Jiang Cheng took Zhao Hai back the way they came and found the river they came from. As soon as the sun rose, a small wooden bridge appeared in the middle of the river, just like the day before. Jiang Cheng held Zhao Hai's hand and quickly left this paradise.
As soon as they got out of the small wooden bridge, Kennedy's Brandi Veyron appeared in front of Jiang Cheng and Zhao Hai again. Jiang Cheng said, "Get in, I'll drive."
Along the way, Jiang Cheng flew out of the illusion according to the instructions of the dream at a speed of 800 kilometers per hour. When Jiang Cheng quickly drove out of the illusion, he fell down as if he was possessed.
Seeing this, Zhao Hai changed his position and drove Jiang Cheng back to the headquarters quickly.
In the headquarters, Zhuge Liuyun and Wang Jie were worried about Jiang Cheng and Zhao Hai, who hadn't contacted each other all night. When they saw Zhao Hai carrying Jiang Cheng back, Zhuge Liuyun quickly asked, "What happened?"
"Cheng Ge, Cheng Ge fainted for some reason." Zhao Hai put Jiang Cheng down and said hesitantly.
Wang Jie touched Jiang Cheng's body with his hand and said, "Rest for a while, there shouldn't be any problem." Then he turned to look at Zhao Hai and asked, "Where did you and Cheng Ge go? How did Cheng Ge become like this?"
Zhao Hai's mind was blank as he said, "I only know that I and Cheng Ge entered a strange place, and then I don't know what happened."
Wang Jie felt a huge threat when he saw this. He didn't ask Zhao Hai anymore. Wang Jie knew that only when Jiang Cheng woke up would they have the opportunity to know what kind of mystery the Gulat family was.
At noon, the sun fiercely shone through the window on Jiang Cheng's body. Jiang Cheng felt the intense glare and slowly opened his eyes.
After Jiang Cheng woke up, he was surprised at how he was in the headquarters. Zhuge Liuyun and Wang Jie were also surprised at Jiang Cheng's state after waking up.
Zhuge Liuyun asked with concern, "Cheng Ge, how do you feel now?"
Jiang Cheng twisted his neck and said, "I only felt like I was beaten, and then nothing else?"
"What happened last night?" Wang Jie looked at the confused Jiang Cheng and asked.
"Last night. Last night. Wait, my head hurts a little now. "Jiang Cheng said while holding his head.
Zhuge Liuyun and Wang Jie also knew that they couldn't force Jiang Cheng to remember, so they quietly accompanied Jiang Cheng.
"Paper and pen, give me." Jiang Cheng said while holding his head.
Zhuge Liuyun quickly took the paper and pen and put them in front of Jiang Cheng. Jiang Cheng tried to recall everything from last night's dream, and tried to draw everything that happened last night.
Zhuge Liuyun and Wang Jie, who were at the side, looked at the table and were confused by the road conditions that were outlined one by one. They thought that such a disorderly road was just like a maze. It would be very difficult for an ordinary person to find the exit.
After a while, Jiang Cheng drew the road that he walked last night. Unexpectedly, Jiang Cheng looked at his own road map and fell into contemplation. He frowned as if he had encountered something.
And Zhuge Liuyun and Wang Jie also looked at this nonsensical road map, but they had an indescribable feeling.
When Jiang Cheng recovered, Wang Jie frowned and said, "I seem to have seen this road map somewhere."
