Golden Forbidden Land: I am at the highest level, exploring the secrets of immortality
Chapter 209: Work done fifty years ago
An old man came out.
The man looked at me and the woman in front of him carefully, and then said in surprise, "It's you... you... a ghost!"
After saying that, the old man fell to the ground unconscious.
"It's him, but why did he change his appearance?"
The woman was very surprised. She never thought that the old man in front of her was the one who brought her to this city.
"Are you sure it's this person?"
I asked.
The woman looked at the old man carefully, and actually closed her eyes. She slowly felt the breath emanating from the old man's body with her hands. When she opened her eyes, she nodded to me, "Yes, it was him who brought me here."
Why would the old man exclaim that he saw a ghost when he saw a woman?
But what makes me feel even more strange is that the old man is in his seventies or eighties, and his body is almost falling apart. How could he bring a woman to this city?
"At that time, he didn't look like this."
The woman said to me, "He... looks like you, very... young."
It took her a long time to say this.
"What, how did it become like this?" I couldn't accept it even more. Like me, maybe she meant that this person was still very strong, and the old man said that he had seen a ghost, which meant that he had seen a woman.
Only then would he feel surprised, even terrified.
"When did he bring you here?"
"A long time ago."
The woman thought for a while, "The surroundings here were not like this at that time."
"How long?"
I felt that the woman didn't seem to understand the so-called concept of time.
Suddenly, the woman closed her eyes, as if she was thinking about something, and slowly stretched her hands towards the sky. The huge hands and body were almost a little uncoordinated.
If someone suddenly broke in at this time, they would definitely be scared to death.
"Fifty years ago."
The woman suddenly opened her eyes and said calmly.
"Ahem..."
I thought I heard it wrong, so I asked her again.
"Fifty years!"
Fifty years, half a century, no wonder this person has grown old, but fifty years ago, when I didn't exist, it was even unimaginable that this woman had... But at this moment she was still so young, at least I definitely couldn't tell from her face that she was a person who had lived for fifty years.
"You...remembered it correctly."
I asked.
She was very sure, "According to your concept of time, it was fifty years."
"Then you don't use time?"
I asked.
But as soon as I said it, I felt a little ridiculous. Could it be that the woman in front of me was an alien?
The old man woke up half an hour later. At that time, he was still staring at us with a blank face. The old man seemed to be asking for forgiveness. He actually knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing to apologize.
"Forgive me..."
The old man kept saying, still in shock.
The woman seemed very surprised.
"You...really brought her to this city fifty years ago?" I asked the old man directly.
He nodded.
"Really...fifty years."
I heard the answer and thought about it carefully.
"Can you tell me what happened that year?" I asked.
The old man was stunned for a while, looked at me for a long time, and perhaps thought that I was still a little more normal, so he slowly stood up.
Seeing that the woman did not pose any threat to him, the old man talked about an incident that happened back then.
"It has been more than 50 years, but I didn't expect that it would still happen..."
The old man burst into tears, not knowing whether it was hesitation, fear or something else.
"I have been trying to forget that I have lived in fear for decades." It can be seen that the old man still seems to have a psychological shadow about what happened that year.
That was more than 50 years ago.
It was not long since the founding of the country, so there was a state of desolation and reconstruction everywhere, and the lives of ordinary poor people were also difficult.
The old man's name was Mr. Shen.
Because his family was very poor, although he was only a bachelor, he was so poor that he could not even open the pot and was about to starve to death.
However, someone pointed out a way to make a fortune for him.
In that era, as long as they could fill their stomachs, it was the wish of most people, so as long as they could make money, they would not be too taboo.
Some people in the village said that of course, this street was just an ordinary small fishing village at that time, not as prosperous as the city now.
The bald man in the village told him that there was a good job and asked him if he would do it.
Master Shen said, as long as you don't steal or rob, you can do it.
The man smiled and said, it depends on how brave you are.
Master Shen frowned. He was hungry and hadn't eaten meat for several days. How could he be brave?
He agreed immediately.
"Okay, then go to the village entrance at six o'clock in the evening and follow a man in black clothes." Lai Tou left Master Shen's house after saying this.
"This..."
Master Shen was a little puzzled.
But Lai Tou left a silver coin before leaving.
That thing could be exchanged for a large bag of rice at that time. At least Master Shen could save money for more than half a month.
