Chapter 1033 The Terrible Old Man
Yang Xiu felt that the old man was right. He was really too greedy to do this. He needed others to tell him everything.
However, Yang Xiu really couldn't understand what these strange words meant. Looking at the old man's current appearance, it was probably impossible for him to tell so much about it.
"Old man, who should I look for?"
Yang Xiuke asked politely that the people in Taiping Village must have a very simple identity, and he is clear about this, so he dare not be too casual.
The old man thought for a while and said slowly: "If you go west, someone will see the content for you, but I don't know what will happen to you in the end. Everything is in the Book of Heaven, go!"
Sure enough, it was still possible to discuss, Yang Xiu hurriedly said, "Thank you for your advice!"
He also wanted to know how to record the affairs of Dajin and Chen Yang, and get the desired result, and then hurriedly left here.
However, not long after Yang Xiu left, another person walked into Taiping Village. It was Cao Teng, who came from Jianye, who came from a distance, only a little later than Yang Xiu. It can be seen how much Cao Cao wanted to get the Book of Heaven.
The first feeling when Cao Teng walked into Taiping Village was almost exactly the same as Yang Xiu's just now. In his opinion, this place was too strange, and there was an old man who was almost dying inside.
The old men sat in front of the door and didn't go to work. They didn't even bother to look at him for a longer time, just like a sculpture.
“This place is so weird.”
Cao Teng was thinking in his heart, curiously looking for an old man to say hello, but the other party seemed to be unable to understand and said nothing.
He felt their weirdness more and more, and he reached out and pushed the other person. The old man seemed to have roots on the ground, not moving at all, and he didn't look up. He just blinked and told him that he was not dead yet.
"Who are these?"
Cao Teng didn't dare to take action anymore, so he was so scared that he quickly took a step back, but when he thought that Chen Yang and the others could come here and leave safely, he would definitely be able to do so, so he kept going.
"So soon, someone is coming again!"
At this time, Cao Teng heard a faint voice behind him. He immediately jumped back and shouted: "Who!"
Just when he turned around, he saw an old man standing behind him at some point, staring at him lightly, and was the one who just received Yang Xiu.
The other party's look made Cao Teng look at him indescribable strangely, and when did the other party appear behind him? There was no sound when he walked.
"Don't be nervous!"
The old man said lightly: "Either there are no people coming to our Taiping Village, or there are several people who come. I know what you want, come with me!"
Cao Teng was stunned for a moment, and finally someone paid attention to him, but the other party's words surprised him again and he heard something.
"Apart from me, there are other people coming today?"
Cao Teng immediately asked.
In other words, do you have other competitors?
That's right, there must be this possibility. It seems that Cao Cao is not the only one who wants to get the Book of Heaven.
The old man did not respond to Cao Teng's words and continued to walk into the room just now.
Cao Teng thought about it and could only keep up. He looked here curiously for a while and found that there was nothing but a cabinet in the room.
"You brought me here to know what I want?"
Cao Teng looked at the other party curiously again.
"What else do you want to come to me except the heavenly books? I only have to do with the heavenly books."
The old man sneered and said, "Take it!"
He was also easy to talk, and didn't even refuse, so he took out a piece of sheepskin from the cabinet and swung his hand and threw it to Cao Teng.
After getting the parchment roll, Cao Teng had a not-very real feeling. In his heart, he thought that the old man would definitely refuse, but in the end he would not give it to him, so he had to snatch it. But he didn't know that what he had made up for was not needed to be realized.
Cao Teng opened the parchment scroll and saw that it was some words that he couldn't understand, but the number of words was not large, just one volume, just like what Yang Xiu thought, this was not a complete heavenly book.
"That's the only one?"
Cao Teng asked.
"Another greedy person."
The old man said, "This is the only thing I can give you. If you don't want it, let it go. If you want it, please take it away."
Cao Teng said helplessly: "But I want it, and I can't understand what is written on it."
The old man said, "If you go east, you will naturally tell you what is written on it."
After listening to his words, Cao Teng thought for a long time, then looked at the cabinet again, thinking that there must be many inside, but the old man was just unwilling to give it to him.
"Thank you, old man!"
Cao Teng bowed and left Taiping Village.
The old man sighed slightly: "Why do people always do this? If you can't get it, you will try every means to get it, alas!"
"Because human nature is evil, and everyone has their own greed."
At this time, an old man outside the door said, "No matter who it is, he will have his own greed."
After Cao Teng left Taiping Village, he did not walk far away. He stayed in the woods outside, as if waiting for something.
Until nightfall, Cao Teng still did not leave and returned to Taiping Village again.
At this time, all the elderly outside the house had already gone back to sleep and rest, and the surroundings seemed very quiet. Cao Teng came to the place where the cabinet was placed.
"If you don't give it to me, wouldn't I come to find it myself?"
Cao Teng thought to himself, he opened a drawer in the cabinet. There was no heavenly book in it, but only a note with the words: I knew you would come back again.
Seeing those words, Cao Teng felt a chill on his back and his heart became flustered, as if he had eyes that saw him through the darkness.
Cao Teng was calm and did not believe in this evil spirit. He continued to open the second drawer and saw a note inside, saying: "You can't get the Book of Heaven."
"The people in this place aren't really that scary, are they?"
Cao Teng swallowed, plucked up the courage to open the third drawer again, and there were only two words on the note inside: Let's go!
Next, Cao Teng finally did not dare to move around, and widened his eyes slightly. After a while, he left the house as if he was running away, and ran directly outside Taiping Village, constantly recalling the contents of the notes in his heart.
Are the people here gods?
Can they calculate his affairs without any mistakes? Are they still normal people?
Cao Teng turned around and took a deep look at the village, took the parchment in his arms, and left this broken place as soon as possible, not wanting to come again.
The old man told him that he could find the person who could help him translate the parchment rolls when he walked east.
