Chapter 72: The Centenarian

There are a few dusty old candles on the table in the side hall, and when they are lit, the whole room is filled with orange light, and there are many futons piled up in the corner, and the ground is also very clean, so it is absolutely fine to stay for one night.

Mo Xiaoyi put several futons together, connected them to the size of a bed, then took out a towel from the travel bag and spread it, knelt and carefully smoothed out the folds, then got up and held Bai Chen's hand, helped her to sit down on the ground, helped her brush a strand of hair that fell to her cheeks behind her ears, and said softly: "Wife, tired, sit down and rest!" ā€

Beckhans glanced enviously at the bunk, bent down and rubbed his sore knees, and shouted like a child fighting for toys: "Mo Xiaoyi, I also want to sleep in bed, don't be heavy on your friends!" ā€

Mo Xiaoyi threw him a roll of his eyes, and said lukewarmly: "I want to sleep and take the futon by myself." ā€

Beckhans looked at the bed sheet again, and was very reluctant to run to the corner of the wall to carry the futon, although it was a little dirty, and had to make do with it, who said that he did not have the sheets prepared. Tang Jinfeng looked around the clay statue Bodhisattva on the table, and didn't know what kind of character it was molding, it was completely different from the ordinary Buddha statue, but it seemed to be an ordinary people's statue.

Mo Xiaoyi took out the dry food he brought and beckoned Beckhans and Tang Jinfeng to eat, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the ape-man on the ground moving slightly, for fear that he would wake up and attack people, he quickly pushed Bai Chen behind him, and was fully on guard, and once he dared to act rashly, he would knock him unconscious again.

Beckhans also noticed the ape-man moving his feet, and reflexively took a few steps back, pointed at him in a fuss and shouted, "Look, look, his feet are moving!" ā€

Tang Jinfeng covered his mouth, "Do you want to wake him up and beat you?" ā€

Beckhans had seen the power of Chinese kung fu, and immediately turned behind Tang Jinfeng, thinking that Tang Jinfeng was as weak as him, and it was definitely not safe behind him, so he ran to Mo Xiaoyi's side again, his eyes staring at the ape, his expression was both excited and nervous.

Mo Xiaoyi stood up, walked to the place where the ape man was lying and squatted, it seemed relaxed, but in fact, every string in his body was already tightened, and he faintly felt that this guy who looked like a man and a non-man and an ape must be carrying a big secret, his appearance made him can't help but think of two words "catastrophe and vicissitudes", as if he had experienced hundreds of generations of tossing and turning, judging from his vicious killing moves, he must have great resentment and paranoia in his heart.

The ape-man slowly opened his eyes, his eyes turned blankly, and stopped on Mo Xiaoyi's face, gradually overflowing with a touch of grief and sadness, which was a kind of pain that seeped out of his bones, and his fluffy face was covered with loneliness. At this time, he was a human being who had experienced hardship, not a simple ape.

"Would you like something to eat?" Mo Xiaoyi handed over the beef jerky in his hand.

The ape-man sat up slowly, his eyes still staring at him, as if wondering if he meant to give him food.

Mo Xiaoyi saw his scruples, and said with a gentle smile: "Eat, it's not enough over there, we just want to stay here for the night temporarily, I didn't expect to disturb you, sorry!" ā€

The ape-man seemed to be conquered by his kindness, raised his right hand and tried it a few times, and finally reached out and took the beef jerky in his hand, carefully stuffed it into his mouth, chewed very slowly, and stammered out a few words after a while: "Good, delicious!" ā€

Mo Xiaoyi took another piece of bread that had been torn open and handed it to him.

Now the ape-man was not polite to him, and as soon as he snatched it, he stuffed it into his mouth, and it seemed that he was hungry, and he chewed it indiscriminately and swallowed it, and then raised his eyes to look at him again, and his sad eyes were replaced by clear innocence, and even with a trace of pitiful request, he was not yet full!

Mo Xiaoyi smiled secretly and took a large bread to him.

The ape-man shoved it into his mouth again, choking accidentally, and pinched his neck with one hand, and his cheeks bulged out on both sides.

Mo Xiaoyi hurriedly handed him a paper cup, which contained the spring water that had just been received from the bamboo stream.

The ape-man glanced at him gratefully, took the water and poured it. As a result, I choked again and coughed up. finally got through it, grinned on his lips, and said "thank you" vaguely.

Judging from the two times he spoke, it seems that he is not very proficient in language, either he was born with a stutter, or he has not spoken for too long, so that his language has deteriorated.

Mo Xiaoyi began to think that he should be a human being, just a good person, how could he become an ape? Congenital or nurture?

Seeing that the fierce ape-man who had just fought suddenly became so docile and shy, Beckhans was no longer afraid, and got up and walked over and crouched down, looking curiously at the monster in front of him, still thinking in his heart that he was nothing more than a strange monkey.

Mo Xiaoyi smiled slightly, and asked in a friendly tone as much as possible: "My name is Mo Xiaoyi, I came to play on the mountain, can you tell me what your name is?" Why is a person hiding in this dilapidated temple? ā€

The ape-man's eyes showed heavy sadness again, and he replied vaguely: "Heavenly Death, Master, Master harmed me!" ā€

Mo Xiaoyi was surprised: "Your name is Tianyan? You were originally human, but your master turned you into an ape, right? Why did your master do this? ā€

Tian Yan nodded, and it took a lot of effort to squeeze out a few complete words: "Master, he wants to practice evil arts, he, he uses me as a tool to help him strengthen his cultivation, and only when he succeeds can he defeat his enemy, he said that his enemy will chase after him from a thousand years ago!" ā€

Bai Chen's slightly narrowed eyes widened, shooting out a ray of cold light, and then lowered his eyelids and continued to rest, as if he hadn't heard anything.

Mo Xiaoyi was also stunned, as if a string was played violently in his mind, as if something mysterious flashed by, but he didn't have time to catch it, and some kind of long-ago memory in his memory suddenly turned over suddenly, and then turned into a clueless blank.

"Hey, you're kidding, people thousands of years ago have long since turned into dirt, how can they still run into this world?" Beckhans pouted disapprovingly, and to convince him that someone had worn it from a thousand years ago, it would be better to tell him that the sun lived in the moon palace.

"Really, really, Master is so powerful, but he said that the enemy is more powerful than him, so he has to practice evil arts at any cost......" Tian Di's words finally became much more fluent.

"I don't believe it, eighty percent of it was you who bluffed people." Beckhans was still unconvinced.

Mo Xiaoyi interjected and said, "Tianyan, I believe you, can you tell me where your master went?" ā€

Tian Yan sucked his fluffy fingers like a child and said, "He went down the mountain a hundred years ago, he wants to go to a place with a lot of people to practice spells, he said that the bigger the city, the better it is to practice concealmently, and he can find more tools......"

Beckhans interrupted him with a whoa, "Hey, hey, what did you call a hundred years ago?" How old are you? ā€

Tian Yan replied confidently: "One hundred and twenty years old! ā€

Beckhans fell backwards with a "snap" and teased loudly: "I said dude, don't be funny, do you really think you are a monkey who lives a hundred years?" ā€

Tian Yan glared at him angrily, and a touch of sadness appeared on his ignorant face again, which shows how unwilling he was to be a monster who was neither human nor ape, his master was too vicious, and he actually made his apprentice look like this for his own cultivation?

Mo Xiaoyi fell into deep thought.

From the words of Tianyan, it can be heard that his master is definitely not a good thing, and he was a thousand years ago, and his heart was pounding, a thousand years ago? God, it can't be the Han Twins, right? No, no, no, how could there be such a coincidence, however, who is it if not him? Could it be someone else?

Mo Xiaoyi stopped Beckhans from ridiculing Tianyan, and asked in a deep voice, "Tianyan, what is your master's name?" ā€

Tianyan blurted out, "Daoist Yin! ā€

"Daoist Yin?"

Mo Xiaoyi muttered, he didn't think he had heard of this person. However, he went down the mountain into the city a hundred years ago, and I don't know what identity he has become now.

I heard that practicing evil arts will use a lot of despicable means, killing people and digging out hearts, dissecting people's fetuses, doing everything, and some will even provoke the anger of the heavens and people's resentment. Is it the same person as the Han Twins?

Mo Xiaoyi pondered for a long time, and somehow the scene he saw in the laboratory of the Brain Hospital suddenly flashed in his mind, those baby corpses, as well as the living female ** officer, and several strange cases that Jin Miaomiao encountered that could not be explained by science, and shuddered.

Could it be that those could have been done by the Heavenly Death Master?

There was more and more fog in front of him, Mo Xiaoyi patted his head in distress, forbidding himself not to think nonsense, his eyes moved to Tianyan's face again, and asked with concern: "Tianyan, what are your plans next?" Do you hide in the mountains all your life? ā€

Tianyan's face was full of deep sorrow, and he was silent for a while before he said: "I, I don't know, I, can I follow you?" ā€

Mo Xiaoyi was stunned, could he bring the hairy Heavenly Death back to the metropolis? I was afraid that he would be hurt even more by then, but if he refused, he really couldn't bear to face the trust and help in his eyes, so he had to say ambiguously: "This, can we discuss it tomorrow?" Now let's go to bed first! ā€

Tianyan nodded and lay down obediently.

Mo Xiaoyi lay down beside Bai Chen and hugged her tightly in his arms, afraid that the cold air of the deep mountains would invade her.

Tang Jinfeng and Beckhans also lay down on the laid futon.

The night is as cool as water.

The five of them went to sleep with their hearts in their hearts......
