Chapter 290 The tooth monster and the dry old man
The scene where a row of teeth is suddenly exposed under the cloak will look a bit weird.
Jiang Yuan thought about the overly hot scene outside, and was not sure whether the parts of the man in the cloak, except for his teeth, were too dark from the sun to see clearly, or whether he could not see clearly because the cloak was too tightly covered.
While he was distracted, Ruan Jiang took the initiative to chat with the other party.
"Hello, old man!" He has a sunny and handsome face, which most old people will like and praise as "what a good and energetic boy".
Ruan Jiang also knows the advantages of his face. It looks very sunny, bright and well-behaved.
After greeting the old man, he took the initiative to ask the question he wanted to know: "Old man, my friends and I don't know why we came here. Do you know where this place is and how to leave?"
"Also, why do you say we are braves?"
The old man waved his hand, and everyone found that he was holding a cane as black as the cloak, which seemed to be scorched black by the sun.
"Where is this place...I have lived for too long and I can't remember it. How to get out of here, old man, I don't know very well." He shook his head and swayed his cloak. Apart from the teeth he showed when he spoke, nothing else could be seen. Facial outline, "As for why I say you are brave, it's because I have met young people who are similar to you."
"Huh?" Paimon was surprised, "Could it be that there are really people from other teams here?"
"Team?" the old man repeated the word Paimon blurted.
"Ah, ah this..." Paimeng looked at Jiang Yuan for help.
Jiang Yuan helplessly explained to Gangmeng: "We are a team of adventurers. Besides us, there are other teams that may have come here."
"Ah, yes, yes," Pamon nodded repeatedly, "Yes, we are a team of adventurers!"
"That's it," the old man didn't ask any more questions, nor did he show whether he believed Jiang Yuan's explanation. He just said regretfully, "Then you probably won't be able to see him."
"Because the last time I met the braves was many years ago. They went to face the sun and wanted to solve it. I don't know whether they left or died. In short, they never came back."
Many years ago?
Jiang Yuan and Xiao Songqing looked at each other and began to analyze the meaning of the old man's words in their hearts.
Among the people present, Zhou Hu and Thunder Hammer hardly spoke.
Zhang Daocheng, Ruan Jiang and Zhao Bingxia directly became a trio of sand sculptures. Regardless of whether they are really stupid, using their brains may not be the brain circuit of normal people.
Needless to say, Paimon can act as cute as she wants.
Therefore, at this time, only Jiang Yuan and Xiao Songqing in the team could think with normal thinking and communicate with each other.
Xiao Songqing is really smart and willing to think. He never likes to use his brain and only likes the reckless Jiang Yuan... He can be regarded as the taller among the short ones.
"Why do they want to face the sun?" Paimon asked doubtfully.
"Because it's my request for help." The old man sighed, raised his wrinkled hands, and pulled off his hood.
Everyone saw a row of teeth floating in the air.
"Wow! Could it be a tooth monster that can talk and grow arms and legs?" Paimeng hid behind Jiang Yuan with a whoosh.
"You're so rude, little guy!" His teeth opened and closed, "I'm not a monster."
Zhang Daocheng and Ruan Jiang hugged each other: "Ah, the tooth monster has spoken!"
"I, I, I, am not afraid of you! Look at my Zero Transformer!"
At least Zhao Bingxia was not completely infected by the sand sculpture. She calmly walked to the side of Thunder Hammer and fell into silence.
"I told you I'm not a tooth monster!" There was an angry tone in Vicissitudes' voice, and this "cloak tooth monster" waved the crutch in his hand angrily.
Something magical happened. A little blue-purple fluorescence floated out of the cane and spread throughout the house, making the room barely bright.
At least I can see the true face of this "tooth monster". The wrinkled face looks eerie against the fluorescent light, the teeth are embedded in the shriveled lips, the eye sockets are sunken, and the eyeballs are too prominent, which makes it look a bit weird.
What I saw in front of me was indeed not a "tooth monster", but an old man who looked like a ghost.
Paimon was startled again.
No one could tell whether it was the teeth floating in the air that were more scary, or the weird old man with fluorescent face.
In short, Paimon did not dare to come out from behind Jiang Yuan for the time being.
"Ah, it turns out it's not a monster!" "Yes."
Zhang Daocheng and Ruan Jiang, who were trembling in each other's arms before, separated from each other, with a bit of disappointment in their voices.
The two looked at each other, their hostility towards each other fleeting.
"Wow, this old man, Brother Jiang, must be a ghost. I'm so scared!" "Wow, wow, I'm more scared that Brother Jiang is more reliable than Ultraman!"
Jiang Yuan's legs were hugged by two people on the left and right.
Jiang Yuan: "..."
"You two were very fast just now. It seems that your strength has improved a lot. Not bad." Jiang Yuan smiled and praised the two of them. The next sentence changed his tone to express his true purpose, "It seems that when we compete in the future, You can make the thunder hammer stronger."
Thunder Hammer was staring at this side, his eyes flashed red when he heard this, he clenched the hammer and nodded.
Zhang Daocheng and Ruan Jiang felt that a big red word "danger" appeared above their heads.
But... death means death. You're going to get hammered anyway, so why not hold Brother Jiang's thigh for a while longer.
Not only did the two of them fail to let go of Jiang Yuan's legs quickly, but they broke into each other and refused to leave.
With the behavior of these two living treasures, the weird atmosphere in the scene disappeared.
Xiao Songqing glanced at Jiang Yuan, who tried to throw their arms away but failed, and took over the task of communication.
"Sorry, old man." He nodded to the old man, with a slight curve at the corner of his mouth, "Please ignore them and continue our business."
"You said that the ones you saw many years ago can be considered as our seniors... the brave men went to face the sun because of your request for help. Can you tell me why you asked for help?"
Xiao Songqing finally asked the right question, because Zhang Daocheng and others behaved strangely, and their faces gradually became distorted. The angry old man quickly changed his expression.
"Alas -" he sighed long and sadly, "I wonder if you know the past of this place?"
"I'd like to hear the details." Xiao Songqing seemed to have completely forgotten the pattern he saw on the wall before.
So the old man began to tell the story of the past: "Many, many years ago, when the weather was getting hotter and hotter, people first wanted to move away from the sun. After finding that it was useless, they began to raise weapons towards the sun."
"Then what?" Zhao Bingxia, who had already guessed the solution, asked knowingly.
The old man's reply did not surprise them.
"They are all dead. Some were burned to death by the sun, some went crazy and killed their compatriots helplessly, and some... committed suicide."
