Apocalyptic Capsule System

Chapter 1040 The Weird Old Man

Unable to find the hole, Lin Cheng planned to follow the footprints of the group of mice running downstairs and follow up to see what these guys were doing, but when he just turned around to prepare When he left here, he suddenly felt that someone was hugging his waist tightly. Immediately afterwards, he felt himself being forcibly pulled towards the wall behind him by a pair of powerful arms!

"Boom!"

Struggling hard twice, seeing that the guy behind him didn't let go at all, Lin Cheng's heart was ruthless, and his right elbow, which was caught by the opponent's arms, slammed back, and he heard a muffled "uh" , the guy who had been holding him forcibly held his breath and pulled him into a space, and then heard a sound of his body falling to the ground.

"Click—"

And at the same time that the other party fell to the ground, there was a sound of the stone slab closing at the same time. Looking down, Lin Cheng saw an arm being slowly pulled away from the wall. Obviously, the slate slab just now was closed by this hand. Up.

Frowning and turning around, Lin Cheng discovered that this guy who could perfectly escape his breath search and forcibly drag him into such a dark room while he was unaware turned out to be a guy who looked at least sixty years old. Old man with white beard!

It's just that the old man's condition doesn't look good now. Although Lin Chenggang's blow wasn't too fatal, it would be too much for anyone to get hit by it, let alone such an old man, even though the old man's body looks It seems to be quite tough, and the strength he showed when he grabbed Lin Cheng and entered here just now also shows that he is definitely not as simple as he looks.

Clutching the waist that was hit by Lin Cheng, this weird old man with a beard was half lying on the ground, gasping for breath, looking at Lin Cheng as if he wanted to kill someone, obviously Lin Cheng This made it difficult for him to recover for a while.

Although the other party looked miserable, Lin Cheng didn't intend to let it go. The old man dragged himself to such a strange place without saying a word, and he wouldn't believe that there was no attempt to kill him.

"snort!"

With a cold snort, Lin Cheng drew out the black jade dagger, walked up to the old man and threw the dagger on his neck, and said coldly, "You..."

"Hush!!!"

But before Lin Cheng could finish his sentence, the eyes of the old man who fell on the ground suddenly stared. Regardless of the dagger on his neck, he hurriedly stretched out his index finger and gave a "shh" to his mouth, signaling Lin Cheng not to come out. Voice!

"Um?"

Seeing the strange behavior of the old man, Lin Cheng, who was about to extract some information from the living person he had finally met, frowned suddenly, somewhat unable to figure out what the old man was doing.

But the old man didn't mean to explain to him at all. Seeing that he was silent, the old man gritted his teeth, first slowly moved his neck away from Lin Cheng's dagger, and then stood up with difficulty, seeing Lin Cheng's gaze suddenly When it was cold, he quickly waved his hand to signal him not to worry.

When the old man was doing these actions, all his movements were very slight, and he didn't make any sound from the beginning to the end. Half a candle was lit on the broken table in the center of the room. Just following the ray of light, he walked to the table and sat down, picked up the water glass on the table and poured white water into his mouth in small sips.

Seeing the old man's familiar actions, Lin Cheng's heart suddenly moved. The old man's series of actions, including the amount of water he drank and the sound, were obviously a subconscious habit, and the reason why he developed this habit was obviously for the sake of Avoid making any noise, but I don't know why the old man is so sensitive to sound.

Suddenly, just when Lin Cheng became more and more impatient and wanted to step forward to question the other party, he saw the old man's ears move suddenly, and then, he seemed to have let out a big breath, and he stopped drinking water. Resuming the previous caution, he picked up the cup and poured the remaining half of the glass of water into his mouth in one go.

"Ha... hiss!"

After drinking half a glass of water in one gulp, the old man seemed to feel very refreshed. He was about to express his feelings with a relaxed face, but because his movements were a little too large and involved the position where he was injured just now, his expression immediately became distorted. Immediately, he couldn't help but gasped again.

"Old man, shouldn't you explain to me what's going on?"

Directly ignoring the other party's painful expression that was about to contort, Lin Cheng sat down on the chair opposite him, lit a cigarette casually, and asked him in a low voice.

"You can speak Errand?!"

But the old man's expression changed suddenly when he heard Lin Cheng's opening. Originally, he was a little disappointed when he saw Lin Cheng, a Chinese man, but he didn't expect that this young Chinese man, Eyu It was so good, it really exceeded his expectations.

Seeing the fussing look on the old man's face, Lin Cheng glanced at him with disdain and said, "Is this strange? Every year, hundreds of thousands of Chinese come to work and travel in your Eros, and when they meet a Hua who can speak Eros, What surprises the Chinese people?"

Hearing Lin Cheng's words, the old man suddenly realized, nodded lightly and said, "Really? It turns out that the economic and trade exchanges between the two countries are already so frequent..."

"Why, from the meaning of your words, don't you have lived here all this time and never left?"

But Lin Cheng's heart suddenly moved after hearing the other party's words. Although it is not yet clear what the other party's series of actions were for, but from the other party's two sentences, he has already heard that the other party is definitely here I have lived for a long time, otherwise I wouldn't even know the current relationship between the two countries.

"Yeah... almost twenty years?"

He nodded with emotion on his face. Maybe it’s been too long since he met an outsider. The old man’s conversation was very cheerful, and he seemed to be unable to stop when he opened his mouth. "At that time, I had just returned from the army. You know, like me It's hard for veterans like this to find a suitable job no matter where they go until they are forty years old. Over time, I began to get tired of living in a metropolis like Moscow... Fortunately, my two children I was quite promising, but with their help, I left Moscow with a sum of money and searched for nearly two months before I found such a peaceful place..."

"My wife passed away before I changed jobs, and my two children have already married and started a business. I don't want to be a burden to them, and they also support me to go out on my own. It's just unexpected. What's more, it's been twenty years since I left..."
