It was that old monk again!
After reading that book, I became quite curious about this old monk. Just who was this old monk? Which temple was he meditating in?
In theory, monks should be everywhere, especially the prophecy about the hyenas. Although there was no massacre in the village later, it also meant that the old monk at least had some cultivation experience.
However, the higher a monk was, the more they should be able to teach others to be kind, right? How could this old monk be involved in such a thing? Even Zhang Shimin's father knew that robbing tombs was detrimental to merits. Could it be that this monk was a buddhist monk or a lackey?
There was no description of that person here. I looked through the entire book, but I couldn't find any information about the route they had taken to enter the place, much less any clues regarding the entrance.
However, just as I closed the book, the board suddenly made a silencing gesture towards me. As soon as I saw his cautious appearance, I immediately became alert.
Looking through the crack in the door, I could see a figure walking in our direction. As he passed the corpse, he didn't show any surprise or fear on his face. Instead, he continued to look around the room where we were hiding.
When that person approached us, we were able to clearly see his appearance. It was actually one of the two injured people from before!
Although they were on my side, his expression when he passed by that person made me feel extremely unnatural. I had a strange feeling in my heart.
However, before I could react, the door opened and I waved towards that person, ”Over here!”
When that person saw us, his face immediately revealed a happy expression. Without saying anything further, he ran towards our direction.
”We finally found our own people!” There's not even a shadow of a soul in this damned place. Walking on this kind of street alone, it really makes one panic a bit! ”
Even though he looked normal, I could still faintly feel that there was something wrong!
”How did you find us?”
”I was nearby just now, and I heard a strange noise coming from here, so I came over.”
Saying this, he took out a box of well-preserved cigarettes from a waterproof bag and handed it to us, ”Right, you probably don't know my name, I'm Chen Sheng, you can just call me Little Chen!”
Honestly speaking, ever since I fell from that underground fortification, the smoke from me and Bighead had been destroyed. At this moment, seeing the smoke, my heart began to itch. But wouldn't smoking in this environment expose you?
Seeing that my expression wasn't right, Chen Sheng calmly lit one himself. After taking a big drag, he leisurely said, ”It's fine. The old monk said that you could leave safely. As long as you're here, there's nothing to be afraid of!”
Hey! It was as if I were their savior. However, when he said those words, a thought suddenly appeared in my heart.
After receiving the cigarette from Chen Sheng, I asked tentatively, ”Do you really believe in that old monk?” Could it be that he can still calculate? ”
Hearing my words, Chen Sheng didn't hold back and directly sat down by the doorstep. ”To tell you the truth, our group all came over a month ago. The reason we didn't directly go down the tomb was to wait for you.”
