014 About a hundred years
Xie Lin was surprised, but he was also a little amused. Judging from the meaning of the Sharen, it seemed that he was still suspicious of him and Ye Xia just now.
But now it seems that the sand man finally gave up his doubts and chose to believe Xie Lin and the others, and finally he was willing to tell the truth.
"Who is the person you are talking about?" Xie Lin asked hurriedly.
The sand man was silent for a moment, then said, "I don't know who he is, I don't even know what he looks like..."
He told Xie Lin and others that a few months ago, a large number of black iron flying ants suddenly appeared in the village and destroyed them heavily in the village. These black iron flying ants are very powerful, with amazing destructive power. They cannot kill them even if they kill them, and they will not only destroy them, but also be elusive. He can only keep vigilant at all times and barely ensure that the village is not destroyed by those black iron flying ants.
Originally, he only thought that the black iron flying ant colony was formed naturally. Only a few days later, a stranger came to the village and said that he could help him wipe out all these black iron flying ants, at least he could drive away these difficult black iron flying ants.
He was not aware of fraud. He was naturally very happy to see someone who could help him deal with those hateful black iron flying ants, and was extremely enthusiastic and trusted in that person.
When the black iron flying ants came again, the man easily drove away the black iron flying ants. Naturally, he became even more happy and admired the man very much.
But the black iron flying ants were still in dispersed. After that, they suddenly appeared in the village from time to time and destroyed the village. Although the man drove the black iron flying ants away every time, he was also a little anxious. After all, this was not a solution. If the black iron flying ants were destroyed or completely driven away, the village was still facing danger at all times, and he had to live a nervous life.
He asked the man if there was a way to solve the hateful black iron flying ants once and for all, or to drive them away completely. However, the man said that the black iron flying ants were very difficult, and it was not easy to drive them away completely, and it was even more difficult to kill them all.
Later one day, he accidentally discovered that the black iron flying ants were driven by that man. He was naturally extremely angry when he found out that he was deceived, but he was helpless with the man. During this period, the man would occasionally let the black iron flying ants come to harass him, making him miserable.
It was precisely because he had been deceived and had been deceived that he had always been skeptical of the two strangers, Xie Lin and Ye Xia, and refused to believe it easily. Moreover, under the intentional destruction of the black iron flying ants or the person behind the black iron flying ants, he also had a misunderstanding of Xie Lin and the others, suspecting that Xie Lin and Ye Xia were the accomplices of that person. (Divine Host.)
Fortunately, Xie Lin and the others were patient enough and kept restrained. He also saw that Xie Lin and the others had no malice, so he began to gradually believe Xie Lin and the others.
After hearing him say it, Shelin was even more confused and curious. Because this person said it very simply or vaguely, he still didn't say the key points.
So he asked, "Since you have seen that person, you should know what that person looks like. What does that person look like? How old is that person? "
The Sharen was silent for a moment, and then said, "The man was wearing a gray robe, tall and thin, but he had always worn a hat. I had never seen his face clearly, I didn't know his appearance, nor his age. He asked about his origin, and he just said that his name was Wu Ming, who was from the Gu Sect. He was very knowledgeable about all kinds of strange insects. He listened to his voice and his figure. I think he should be a man, and he should be quite young, probably in his forties. But he has always had bad intentions, so I dare not be sure whether his judgment was correct."
After hearing what the Sharen said, Xie Lin and Ye Xia looked at each other again, and Xie Lin also had a strange expression.
Wu Ming and Xie Lin suddenly thought of Wu Liang and Wu De. Wouldn't it be said that Wu Ming also has a lot to do with Emperor Hua, and is the disciple of Emperor Hua?
But if this is true, there will be some conflicts between the front and back. Because the so-called master of the Sharen is also likely to be the Emperor of Flower, and the two sides should be considered brothers, so there is no need to do this. Unless the two sides do not know each other at all, Wu Ming does not know the relationship between the Emperor of Flower.
Of course, it is also possible that Emperor Hua is hypocritical and does not want the Sharen to know his intentions, so he created such a good name.
However, the so-called Wu Ming is probably a false name. Wu Ming and Wu Ming are homophonic with Wu Ming, so it is very questionable.
Of course, these are just speculations. Xie Lin is not sure whether the so-called master of the Sharen is the Emperor of Flower or whether Wu Ming has anything to do with the Emperor of Flower.
The information provided by the Sharen is very limited, including his so-called master and Wu Ming, all seem so mysterious that people cannot guess the specific origin.
But the key problem now is not this. Xie Lin asked this question on purpose, and wanted to use this to open the Sandman's chat. When the Sandman finished speaking, he smiled and asked again: "I see that man deliberately lied to you, gained your trust, acted in front of you, and was reluctant to get those black iron flying ants away. I'm afraid he wanted to use this to threaten you and get something from you, right?"
The sand man was stunned for a moment, seemed very surprised, and blurted out, "How did you know?"
But Xie Lin and Ye Xia looked at each other and smiled, then said to the Sharen: "This is already very obvious, and I don't think anyone can guess it."
The sand man was stunned again and murmured: "Is that so obvious..."
Seeing the Sharen reacting like this, Xie Lin was a little amused and laughed. He thought that the Sharen would not be in such a remote place where it is difficult to see outsiders for a long time, so he was too simple to understand this. He could not even help but complain that the Sharen is too old and is a little demented.
He smiled and said, "This question is actually not important. What matters is what the person named Wu Ming wants to get from you."
The sand man finally stopped muttering to himself, but looked at Xie Lin and the others not talking, and a look of doubt appeared on his face, as if he was hesitating whether to tell Xie Lin and the others.
After being silent for a long time, he suddenly asked, "Do you really have a way to deal with those black iron flying ants? Can you really help me?"
This time, without waiting for Xie Lin's answer, Ye Xia next to him nodded and said, "Yes, we will help you."
The sand man sighed softly, and said as if he was relieved, "A thing is buried under our village, and that person came for that thing."
He also told Xie Lin and others that the thing was left here when his master left. The man who drove the black iron flying ant behind him told him that only with the help of that thing can the black iron flying ant be completely driven away.
He said that when his master left, he told him that he must protect that thing and must not let others go. Moreover, there is something hidden under the village, only he and his master know about it, so he finally doubted the man and began to pay attention to the man's movements in secret. Finally, he discovered that the black iron flying ants were driven by the man.
Xie Lin was stunned for a moment, then his face showed a strange look. He looked at the sand man in the lead, then turned to look at Ye Xia.
Ye Xiaze also frowned slightly, looking thoughtful.
But soon the expressions of the two men returned to calm, and then Xie Lin showed a hint of curiosity on his face and smiled: "What is hidden under your village?"
The sand man shook his head and said, "I don't know what it is. It's always in an iron box. The master told me not to open the iron box, so I have never seen what's inside."
Xie Lin frowned slightly, and even asked again, "How did that person tell you at that time? Only by borrowing the things left by your master can we completely drive away the black iron flying ants. Didn't he say what was hidden in the iron box?"
The sand man shook his head and said, "No, I asked him at that time, but he didn't tell me what was in the box. He just said that when I opened the box, I would know what was inside. When my master left, he told me not to open the box easily, so I didn't agree to him, and the man seemed to know what was in the iron box, so I began to doubt him."
Xie Lin's face became a little strange again. He turned to look at Ye Xia again, and then asked, "Then did your master say when he would come back to get this thing before leaving?"
The sand man was silent for a while and said, "When my master left, he said that he would definitely come back to get this thing within thirty years, but he has never come back. Now he is probably dead..."
"That's not necessarily true," Xie Lin smiled and said, "Your master is so powerful, maybe he's still alive."
The sand man was stunned for a moment, as if he was surprised that Xie Lin would say this, but then he sighed and said, "I hope this is the case, but... when he left, he said that he felt that his life was about to end and he wanted to go outside to find something that could allow him to continue his life, but he said that if he did not come back within thirty years, he would have not found that thing and had... passed away. He also said that if he still did not come back within a hundred years, I could open the iron box, and the things in the box belonged to me."
Xie Lin's eyes lit up: "Didn't you say that your master has been away from here for more than a hundred years?"
The sand man nodded and said, "It has been one hundred and ten years since my master left."
"Then you haven't opened that iron box yet?" Xie Lin asked.
But the sand man suddenly started to hesitate and said, "I...I dare not open the box."
"Why?" Xie Lin looked curious.
"The master said that the box contained a very terrible thing. If you open the box and let the thing come out of it, it might bring you a huge disaster." The sand man said.
