559: Dad, you died so tragically!
"Old man, you can't keep doing this. It's very dangerous if it explodes again!" Li Hong could tolerate seeing those old men and women playing mobile games before.
After all, the worst that could happen with mobile games was their presbyopia getting worse.
But this is different now.
This Alchemy furnace is sealed like a pressure cooker.
The fire below keeps burning.
An explosion is inevitable!
And once it explodes again, there will definitely be big problems!
Even he, a person with such a good physique, felt his heart shrink in fright and his blood rush upwards when he heard the explosion just now.
Let alone this more fragile Old man!
Perhaps the Old man in front of him had suffered some internal injuries in the previous explosion, but just hadn't noticed yet!
"Buzz buzz buzz ~"
The flames beneath the furnace surged.
The Old man who was refining pills heard Li Hong's words, turned his head in confusion, and looked over: "Explosions are very normal, the pills are exploded out."
"Where is that normal?!" Li Hong's heart was anxious. Coming closer to the Old man, he realized how high the temperature of the flames beneath the Alchemy furnace was!
This so-called elderly university actually let Old men come into contact with this kind of flame, and there wasn't even anyone watching nearby!
"This thing is a ticking time bomb. What if it explodes on you?!"
"In the depths of this mountain, the ambulance can't get up here, the consequences will be very serious!"
Li Hong tried his best to persuade him.
He really couldn't stand for this kind of School to continue existing. When he returned, he would definitely take all punitive actions against this irresponsible place!
"Explode on myself?" The Old man heard this and nodded slightly in agreement: "That is indeed very troublesome, the power of this explosion is very painful when it hits you."
Saying this, the Old man pointed to the other side.
In that area, a furnace rolled sideways on the ground.
And the ground was pitch black.
Scattered in that area were some charred Alchemy medicinal materials, telling a tale of tragedy.
"Look, Old Li was hit by that Alchemy furnace this morning, and he hasn't come to class since. He's already lying in the coffin."
As the Old man's words fell, Li Hong's gaze also shifted over.
"Hit on the body, lying in the coffin? Did someone really die?!" Upon hearing this news, Li Hong's heart pounded wildly while he gasped.
In a daze, a fluttering flag in that area caught A Man's attention.
"This is... A Manifestation Flag?" Seeing this thing, Li Hong had some impression.
Or rather, not just some, but a very deep impression.
Some time ago, he had a telephone call with his Father.
At that time, on the telephone, his Father kept saying something about their Alchemy Department getting a Manifestation Flag, and he was incredibly proud in his words.
He even kept emphasizing that he was the Class Monitor of the Alchemy Department, and the Manifestation Flag was with him!
And at this moment.
In that area... there was that red flag!
"You just now, said... Old Li?!" Looking at this Old man, an unimaginable situation suddenly erupted in Li Hong's heart.
"Yes, Old Li, our Class Monitor." The Old man didn't notice Li Hong's expression at all and nodded casually.
"Then the person who was hit by the Alchemy furnace this morning, is named Li Hongda?!" Li Hong asked again with a trembling voice.
"Yes, Old Li has been hit several times. It's also because he's been hit too many times that he had no choice but to lie in the coffin."
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!" While his breathing quickened, Li Hong staggered towards the work area where the furnace had exploded.
In this area, there was only one place for so-called Alchemy.
The ground was charred black, the air smelled of burnt medicinal materials, and the charcoal-like materials underfoot all spoke of the immense power generated during the previous explosion!
And next to this Alchemy area, there was also a table.
On the table, a photo was prominently displayed! And in the photo, there was a group picture of Li Hongda and Li Hong!
"Ah!" Seeing this scene, Li Hong suddenly grabbed his heart, his veins bulging on his forehead, and his eyes were bloodshot.
"Impossible, how could my Dad just lie in a coffin like this?!"
His heavy tone carried a voice like one possessed.
"Li Hong! Calm down, things are definitely not like that!" His Lin Yue's wife next to him said hurriedly to comfort him.
"Lying in a coffin, isn't that very normal?" The Old man next to him scratched his head.
"What nonsense are you talking about! My Father Li Hongda cannot be lying in a coffin like you said, you are lying!" Li Hong's emotions were out of control.
"Oh, you're Old Li's son." The Old man also realized that the young man who had arrived was here to see Old Li.
"Why would I lie to you? Your Father is indeed lying inside."
Saying this, the Old man stood up and pointed to the Back Mountain of the School.
"Your Father is there. I even helped him cover the coffin lid and bury him. Since he just lay in, you can go and see him."
Listening to the Old man's words, which were flat but felt like steel rods piercing his heart, Li Hong coughed heavily twice.
Could his Father really be...
"Go!" Enduring the pain in his heart, A Man called out to his Lin Yue's wife and a few security guards and stepped towards that place.
The Back Mountain of the School was not far from the Alchemy room.
But Li Hong and the others walked very slowly, heavily!
After quite some time, Li Hong arrived at the Back Mountain.
And when he saw the scene here, he couldn't help but tremble all over!
This School's Back Mountain was actually full of 'graves!'
Seeing these freshly turned earth mounds, Li Hong's body trembled even more.
The earth mounds were so fresh, meaning they had only recently 'died'!
So many people...
It was at this moment that A Man suddenly 'realized.'
He knew, he understood!
Why his Father didn't call him earlier or later, but specifically last night.
He must have suffered a death threat in this School. Yesterday's call was a cry for help!!
Look at these graves, they are clearly the Old men who were murdered!
He had come too late after all!
"Hey, why is there a young man here? Looking for someone?" Just then, an Old man with a shovel came over.
Li Hong turned around, took a deep breath of the cold air mixed with fresh soil, and said hoarsely: "Do you know where Li Hongda is?"
"That guy who goes around showing off the Manifestation Flag all day?" The Old man also knew Li Hongda.
He pointed the shovel in his hand towards Li Hong's feet: "He's under your feet."
Looking at the place the other person was pointing to, Li Hong's eyes widened slightly.
Then he looked down at his feet.
The shallow layer of soil on top moved, and sure enough, he saw a coffin lid!
His Lin Yue's wife next to him covered her mouth and screamed: "Ah! This... This is the coffin I bought for Dad."
"You bought a coffin for Dad?!" Li Hong asked with a trembling voice.
And his Lin Yue's wife replied in fear: "At that time, you were lying in the Hospital, Dad wanted a coffin, and I didn't want this matter to affect your condition again, so I bought the coffin he wanted for Dad myself..."
"You!" Li Hong's finger trembled as he pointed at his Lin Yue's wife, his body swayed, but he didn't know what to say.
Finally, he looked at the coffin in front of him...
"Dad! Dad!!" The sorrowful cry shook the Heavens and Earth, startling a flock of birds in the forest.
Inside the coffin.
Li Hongda was lying with his eyes closed, his breathing almost imperceptible.
He had entered a state of suspended animation.
Only by lying in the coffin, lying in the Earth, covered by soil, this feeling was truly too right!
Every time in this state, he could quickly enter suspended animation and begin Cultivation!
Compared to Zhang Tongqian who just lay in the coffin in the dormitory, he could at least enter suspended animation 10 minutes earlier to start Cultivation!
And just as he was entering this state of peace and starting Cultivation, he was suddenly startled by a roar like a clap of thunder.
"Dad! You died so tragically!"
"This hateful School didn't even give you a tombstone! Dad, how could you be so miserable!"
"Your son is unfilial, letting you leave so hastily!"
The sorrowful crying, penetrating the coffin lid, erupted with immense intensity.
And in the coffin, after hearing his son's voice, Li Hongda's forehead was full of black lines.
"Ah, Li Hong!" Just as the crying stopped, the woman's voice sounded.
"Quick, quick, get the medicine, he's having a heart attack!"
The voices from above kept appearing, and hearing this, Li Hongda couldn't lie down anymore.
He pushed open the coffin lid and stood up.
The woman was originally helping the unconscious Li Hong next to him. When she saw the coffin lid being opened and Li Hongda coming out from inside, her eyes slowly widened.
As if seeing a zombie emerge, her eyes rolled back, and she fainted.
The remaining three burly bodyguards, although their legs were also trembling in fear, still protected Li Hong and his Lin Yue's wife behind them.
"Am I that scary? How can everyone's psychological endurance be so weak?" Li Hongda frowned and said.
And as soon as he said this, one of the three bodyguards also rolled his eyes and fainted.
"You, are you human or Ghost?!" Among the bodyguards, there was finally one who could speak.
Hearing this question, Li Hongda looked at himself.
Only then did he realize that his current appearance was indeed a bit shabby.
After the Alchemy furnace exploded, his hair looked like a beggar's, his clothes were ragged, and he had many blood-stained wounds on his body!
To outsiders, he looked like an Old man whose body was like a piece of rags.
Coupled with coming out of a coffin, it gave people the visual sense of seeing a Ghost.
"Of course I'm human! What kind of question is that?" Li Hongda walked out of the coffin unhappily: "Move aside, this couple's psychological endurance is too poor, they need to eat the Essence Cultivation Pill I refined to recover."
As he spoke, the Old man took out two pitch-black pills from his body.
