Chapter 436 I Don’t Recognize You and the Xiao Family
The water in the dungeon almost reached their chests.
When Old Xiao pounced over, the water waves also followed.
Shen Wan directly avoided him and said to Bai Lao and others: "Come with me."
Seeing this, Old Bai stepped forward with a smile, "You are Master Taixuan's disciple, Chen Wan, right? I've heard Xiao Yan mention you often, but I didn't expect your Taoism to be so powerful that you can even find this place."
Shen Wan smiled slightly: "It was only through the blood connection between Xiaobai and you that I found it."
"But I have to find an open space to set up a teleportation array so that I can send you away safely."
"Is there any open space here?"
Bai Lao shook his head: "We have been looking for an exit since we were locked up, but unfortunately we haven't found one. This water prison is like a maze, with water and walls everywhere."
Shen Wan walked with them for a while, and when they reached shallow water, they discovered that their upper bodies were covered with scars.
Especially Mr. Bai, who was shot in the abdomen.
"Mr. Bai, don't you feel any pain?" Chen Wan was startled, and quickly took out the acupuncture kit he carried with him and gave him a few acupuncture needles on the spot, and then gave him a peace amulet and asked him to hold it.
If she had come an hour later, Mr. Bai would definitely not have been able to hold on.
Bai Lao's face was pale, but he was still smiling. "This is nothing. When I was fighting in the Middle East, I got hit by many more bullets than this, but I took it all."
Shen Wan smiled and said, "You are indeed a great hero of your generation."
Listening to the two of them chatting and laughing, Old Xiao on the side felt very uncomfortable.
It is obvious that Xiao Wan is his biological granddaughter!
Why is this old Bai chatting so warmly with his own granddaughter!
Seeing Xiao Wan's attitude of ignoring him, she must have known that she was a member of the Xiao family a long time ago.
Doesn’t Xiao Wan like him as her grandpa?
Looks very disgusted.
The more Mr. Xiao thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt. He felt like an outsider.
"Xiao Wan..." He spoke with difficulty, "I am you..."
Shen Wan interrupted coldly: “Mr. Xiao, if you want to go out, don’t talk nonsense.”
Mr. Xiao's face changed.
nonsense……
Is what he said nonsense?
Does Xiao Wan really hate him?
Old Xiao thought about her crying just now and regretted not recognizing her before he died.
He simply couldn't control himself and didn't want to wait any longer.
"Xiao Wan, even if you don't want to save me, I will accept it. But I want to tell you that I am your grandpa, your real grandpa!"
"You are my granddaughter!"
Shen Wan's expression was cold: "Oh? So what."
“Grandpa was deceived by his family, by Shen Qianxue. Grandpa actually recognized you when he saw your photo on the day he went to the Shen family.”
"Xiao Wan, are you blaming grandpa for recognizing you and not coming back to pick you up?"
"Actually, that's not the case. Grandpa knows that someone in your family doesn't want you to go back. I've been investigating, including going abroad this time to get the DNA test results in person. Grandpa just wants to remove all obstacles that prevent you from returning to the Xiao family before taking you home."
Shen Wan didn’t want to listen to this nonsense, and said directly: “I have no interest in returning to the Xiao family, and you don’t have to recognize me.”
Mr. Xiao was stunned, his face full of astonishment: "Xiao Wan, do you hate grandpa?"
"Apart from the fact that we are related by blood, we are no different from strangers. How can we talk about love or hate?" Chen Wan said calmly, "I have my own life. I don't want you to disturb me."
"Mr. Xiao is a man of insight. He won't force me to do something I don't want to do like those dog-skin plasters of the Shen family, right?"
Old Xiao was silent for a long time, then he sighed heavily: "Grandpa understands what you mean. You don't want to go back to the Xiao family. Grandpa respects your choice."
"Grandpa just hopes that you won't be disgusted with me. Even if you are dealing with strangers, you can still keep a little kindness."
He didn't expect that he would recognize Xiao Wan under such circumstances.
I didn't expect that Xiao Wan already knew about my identity.
Now he understood why Xiao Wan was so cold towards him at the auction.
As a grandfather, he is really derelict in his duty!
Shen Wan didn't talk to him anymore, but just said: "The water here is a little shallow, you guys wait here for me, I'll go find a way out."
The trapped people are all elderly. They have been walking in the water dungeon for a day and a night. If they were asked to follow her around, they would probably not be able to endure the physical strain.
Chen Wan tried to use the five ghosts to carry the sedan chair, but failed to summon them.
There seems to be something here that can create a barrier.
She had to go see.
Old Xiao said quickly: "Xiao Wan, be careful! If you encounter danger, protect yourself first!"
Old Bai also said, "That's right, listen to your grandfather. We are all old guys. We have lived for decades. It's okay to die. You are still young!"
The other old men looked at him with resentment: If you want to die, die first.
The dungeon is low in terrain, and the dirty water is above the chest when it is deep, and at the knees when it is shallow.
The passages in the water dungeon were intricate and winding like a maze. The walls were covered with thick moss, and some of the mossy areas had scratches from five fingers, making it look hideous and terrifying.
If others were trapped in the maze or dungeon, they would definitely get lost here.
Chen Wan was sensitive to directions and had a photographic memory of every place he had been to. It took him three hours to figure out the structure of the water dungeon and return to the group.
"There is no exit here..."
"What?" an old man asked in shock, "How could there be no exit? Then how did we get in?"
"Then how do we get out?"
"Are we going to be trapped here and die?"
"Young Master, where did you come from? Can you lead us out in the same way?"
Shen Wan said frankly: "There are many talented people abroad. Although there is no export, I can create one."
“It just takes a platform.”
"I just saw that we can use the things in the wall as a support platform to set up a teleportation array."
The five ghosts cannot come in with the sedan chair, otherwise they could have carried them all away.
"What's in the wall? What's in the wall?"
Shen Wan raised his fist and smashed it hard against a wall.
With a loud bang, all the cement on the wall peeled off, revealing a skull built into the wall.
Human skulls are densely piled in the wall. These skulls are pressed and nested against each other. The empty eye sockets are like a pair of invisible eyes peeping at them, which makes people's scalps tingle.
Everyone couldn't help but gasp, "So many heads?"
Shen Wan said: "Take down all the heads and pile them above the water. We have to step on them to leave."
"It's so rude to step on someone's head."
"Yeah...if they come back to settle accounts with us..."
Shen Wan said dimly, "Pile it up and cover it with clothes. This is the only way we can leave. Or, can you hang upside down on the wall?"
"I'm sorry if I've offended you!"
No one dared to waste time and rushed forward to grab the head.
