Chapter 0739: The Return of Cao Xiong, Seven Men and Two Women Nine Dragons
It's pitch black in the sturdy and durable underground fortress!
Liu Shiba, Huang Zhong, and Qin Da were back to back, holding their own weapons and staring at the dense black shadows in the darkness...
At Qin Da's feet, Lao Hei squatted with a hunched back, a pair of golden eyes shining with ferocious light.
"Wow!"
The black shadow on the opposite side moved for a while, then there was a buzzing sound, and a dozen torches lit up.
What caught Liu Shiba's eyes and made him exclaim was the figure under the torch.
When Qin Da and Huang Zhong saw this, they exhaled at the same time. The person who had been chasing the three of them for a long time for several days was actually a human?
Huang Zhong and Qin Da were just amazed, but had no other thoughts, but Liu Shiba was different.
In addition to being amazed, there was also disbelief in his eyes, because something might be out of his control.
The time and space channel in the underground fortress was not destroyed because he was very familiar with the people who appeared in front of him.
These people were both men and women. A rough estimate was that there were at least several hundred people. What surprised Liu Shiba most was that these people were Chinese, and they were from the 1960s and 1970s.
Liu Shiba didn't need to guess whether the three of him walked into the studio, there was no need to question it!
The people in front of me were all wearing blue-green military and police uniforms, with two red collar badges on the left and right of their collars.
Some men also wore burnt plum-shaped military caps on their heads, with a red five-star shining in the middle of the cap.
"Who are you? Why did you go to the ancestral hall in Ermenwanzi in the middle of the night to steal things?"
A deep male voice sounded.
In the faint scorching light of the fire, the person speaking was a middle-aged man in his forties, close to fifty.
The man wore a washed-out gray military cap, a black double-breasted gown underneath, and a gray tattered cotton-padded jacket over his shawl. He looked exactly like a farmer's big brother.
"Hurry up and stop talking, the labor and management will be rude to you..."
Behind the middle-aged man, a man in his twenties and approaching thirty years old
The man shouted loudly
Qin Da and Huang Zhong looked at each other with a hint of confusion in their eyes...
"Hurry up and say it..."
What do these four words mean?
Liu Shiba looked at the drunken man in a daze, his eyes full of complexity, disbelief, and sadness.
This man in his prime...
He was so familiar that even if he turned into ashes, Liu Shiba would still recognize him.
Cao Xiong......
Between this guy's brows and eyes, he vaguely resembles Cao Xiong, that's right!
The strong man behind the middle-aged man in a torn cotton-padded jacket was shouting violently. He was Cao Xiong, to be precise, he was Cao Xiong in his youth.
"Master Ba! I feel like I know this guy. We've only been apart for a few days..."
At this time, Qin Da also came to his senses and said na na in Liu Shiba's ear.
Huang Zhong had never met Cao Xiong, so he naturally didn't recognize him. However, this did not hinder his general's intuition and he said at the same time:
"This group of people across the street are very strong!"
Liu Shiba nodded solemnly. He didn't know why he saw the young Cao Xiong here.
However, he was certain that this group of people must have come here from the other side of the time and space channel, including Cao Xiong who came from the past.
"Old Cao! Is that you? Cao Xiong..."
Liu Shiba hesitated for a moment, and finally couldn't help but ask.
The strong man standing behind the middle-aged man was stunned when he heard this, then turned his head to look at the middle-aged man beside him, and exclaimed:
"Every year, master, he asks me to come to your bay to sell groceries, saying that I'm here to make a fortune.
If someone tells me my real name, then this person is the grandson of my master or the son of my senior brother. At that time, I felt that the old man was unreliable...
But today, Junior Brother is still in Master’s belly, this person..."
When the middle-aged man heard this, his eyes flashed with sternness, and he said sternly:
"Which one of you three is called Liu Shiba?"
When Liu Shiba heard this, he immediately understood something. Is this another trap set by the old joker?
I don’t know if it’s the current Old Tang from the future or the one who died? Liu Yi?
"I am Liu Shiba."
Liu Shiba looked calm and took a step forward slowly to answer.
The strong man was shocked in his eyes. He took two steps forward excitedly, stared at Liu Shiba curiously, and said nervously:
"Tell me, what's your father's name? What's your grandfather's name? And what's your mother's name?"
"My grandfather's name is Liu Yi, my father's name is Liu Er, and my mother's name is...Yu Shu."
Liu Shiba replied to his mother, paused for a moment, and finally responded to Yu Shu who died in the sea of Zen stones.
The strong man said in surprise:
"That's right, that's right! It's really you, you brat. Master really didn't lie to me..."
Liu Shiba understood at this time that it turned out that Cao Xiong had been carrying the burden of a brave salesman and traveled all over China. His goal was not only Liujiatun, but most importantly, to get to Wanzi where this middle-aged man lived.
Go for a chance encounter.
If there is no fate, then the strong man will slowly grow old and eventually turn into the white-haired Swallow's Nest Cao Xiong according to the laws of nature...
If on a certain day of a certain year, a certain month, the gate of time and space is opened, and Cao Xiong happens to be in this bay, then history will change here...
"It's really Lao Cao, I can't believe it!"
Qin Da quickly ran to Cao Xiong and grabbed his hands.
"You're a bastard with a black watch. Who are you from? Do I know you?"
A strong man named Cao Xiong broke away from Qin Da's extreme enthusiasm.
Qin Da grinned, a rare hint of joy appeared on his dark face, and laughed loudly:
"It is indeed him, it is indeed him, hahahaha!"
The middle-aged man who had been standing under the torch with a calm expression suddenly called Liu Shiba loudly:
"You are Liu Shiba, so that's right! Every year this boy named Cao Xiong writes ink in my bay, I tell him that the teachings of our ancestors are unreliable!
I didn’t expect that this day would actually come. Boy, can you answer me a question?
This question was not asked by your grandfather, but was left by my ancestors.
This question is very simple. If the descendants of our family meet a tomb robber named Liu Shiba one day, then we must ask him a question.
If he can't answer, then he won't have any chance with us in Wanzi..."
Liu Shiba's eyes flashed and his heart moved, but his face remained calm and he chuckled:
"The elder asked, but I don't dare to say goodbye! I haven't asked for advice yet, uncle, what's your surname..."
The middle-aged man pursed his lips tightly and did not answer Liu Shiba's uncle's surname. He turned around directly, looked at the seven men, two women and nine young people behind him, and sighed softly:
"Sure enough, when this day comes, if it is true as the ancestors said, then you can just let him go. The thousand-year oath will be shattered from today on and will no longer exist..."
The nine boys and girls looked at Liu Shiba attentively at the same time, and then responded in unison:
"Everything depends on daddy's instructions."
The middle-aged man looked back at Liu Shiba, with an extremely sharp look on his face, and asked loudly:
"Liu Shiba, I want to ask you, do you know the origin and explanation of your name Liu Shiba? Or what does it mean?
If you answer yes, the nine-dragon fetuses behind me, seven boys and two girls, will serve you as their master from now on, drive you, be your generals, be your vicious dogs, and do evil for you..."
