Chapter 642 Chu River

The man looked gray, and guessed that he was in his 50s or 60s. He was thin and thin. Although there were many wrinkles on his face, the edges and corners were still there. It can be seen that he should have been handsome when he was young. man.

When the old man looked at the dice before, he saw Zhou Wen and the two of them, and knew that they were coming, but he didn't seem to communicate with Zhou Wen and the others, and just stood there slumped.

"What's your name, big brother?" Liu Yun asked.

When the old man heard the voice, it seemed as if Chu had woken up, and he subconsciously replied, "My name is Chu He, and I am a professor of the History Department of Imperial Capital University."

"Hoe He? Is your wife called Dangwu?" Liu Yun joked.

"It's not Hoe He, it's Chu He of the Chu River and Han world." The old man had no sense of humor, or in this environment, there was nothing that could make him feel funny, so the old man just explained it very seriously.

Zhou Wen's eyes widened when he heard the old man's words, and he asked in disbelief, "Chu He? How many professors named Chu He are there in the History Department of Imperial College?"

"I'm the only one." Chu He seemed a little numb, and he didn't care why Zhou Wen asked such a strange question.

Zhou Wen looked at Chu He excitedly. In the entire Imperial College, Zhou Wen knew only one professor's name, and that was Chu He.

The reason why Zhou Wen can remember this name is not because of how famous Chu He is. No matter how famous Chu He is in his industry, Zhou Wen will not care, let alone remember his name.

But this Chu He is different, because there is a history professor from Imperial College, who is a member of the old principal's expedition team.

Zhou Wen had seen Chu He's name and information on the list, and had also seen the group photo of the expedition team.

It's just that Zhou Wen only looked around at that time, Chu He was not his target, so he didn't care much.

Looking back now, this Chu He is indeed somewhat similar to the Chu He in the photo, but the Chu He in the photo is a bit fatter, not so thin, and looks in better condition. His face is red and his hair is still black, unlike now In this way, Chu He was in high spirits at that time.

"Is this really Professor Chu He in the expedition? He should have entered the Zhuolu battlefield with the old principal and the others. They disappeared together, how could they be here?" Zhou Wenwen had already determined that the old principal should be He was killed, but a person who should have been killed with the old principal actually appeared in Huangquan City, which made Zhou Wen's heart regenerate.

"Could it be that Huangquan City is really the place where human beings return after death? Could it be that the people in this city are not living people, but ghosts who have died? Then what are Liuyun and I? When we didn't know it, we were actually dead, and our souls entered Huangquan City?" Zhou Wen shook his head and put this absurd thought out of his mind.

"Professor Chu, have you ever been to Zhuolu Battlefield to do research work?" Zhou Wen stared at Chu He and asked, he hoped that this Chu He was Professor Chu He of the expedition.

If they are really the same person, since Professor Chu He is still alive, then the old principal is probably not killed. After all, no body of the old principal was found in Zhuolu, and no other relics were found.

From childhood to adulthood, there were not many people who were kind to Chu He. The old principal was one of them. Zhou Wen felt that a good person like the old principal should not have died so early. At least he didn't want the old principal to die so early.

"No." Chu He shook his head.

"Why not? Think about it carefully. The Federation invited you to join the expedition to Zhuolu. You, Professor Ouyang Ting, and several other experts and professors went to Zhuolu..." Zhou Wen said.

After talking for a while, Chu He's thinking seemed to be a lot more active.

After listening to what Zhou Wen said, he lowered his head and thought for a while, and said, "I remembered that there was such a thing. At that time, an agency affiliated to the federation did invite me to Zhuolu to do research work. I remember the list at that time. , there is an old professor Ouyang Ting."

"You went to Zhuolu with them, why are you here alone?" Zhou Wen asked excitedly. He had seen other people on the long street just now, and he did not find the old principal and other members of the expedition team. .

Who knew that Chu He shook his head and said, "No, no, I didn't go to Zhuolu, because I made a major discovery at that time and I was going to do research in the Taklimakan Desert, so I declined the invitation and didn't go to Zhuolu. "

"You declined the invitation?" Zhou Wen looked at Chu He with an incredible look on his face.

He has seen the information of the expedition team, although the information after the disappearance is gone, but before that, the records are still very detailed, and even when they are stationed, there are records of their punch cards.

Many people in the station have met Professor Chu He, and some have chatted with him. Now Chu He actually said that he had never been to Zhuolu, and refused the invitation from the beginning, which made Zhou Wen have a lot of thoughts flashing in his mind.

"Is this Chu He lying? Or is it that he really didn't go to Zhuolu? If he really didn't go to Zhuolu, then who is that Chu He who is in Zhuolu? Is this Chu He a fake, or the expedition team? Is Chu He fake? Or maybe it’s the same person at all. After Chu He died, his soul entered Huangquan City, and he has forgotten the past? This is not right. He still remembers his name and knows that he is the imperial capital. The professor of the academy doesn't look like his memory has been washed away..." Zhou Wen's brain was chaotic, and he couldn't figure it out for a while.

"Yes, I refused." Chu He said bitterly: "I also hesitated at the beginning, if I chose to go to Zhuolu, I would not be trapped in this hell-like place."

Zhou Wen thought to himself: "If you had gone to Zhuolu, you might not have been better off than you are now. At least you are still alive now. The old principal and the others are not even sure whether they are dead or not."

"Little Junior Brother, those who don't have some will talk later. We don't have much time, so let's ask the key points." Liu Yun said anxiously.

Zhou Wen nodded and asked, "Professor Chu, how did you enter Huangquan City? What is the situation here?"

Chu He said: "I was studying the ruins of the Niya civilization in the great desert at the time, but who knew that I encountered a big sandstorm. After the sandstorm passed, I saw Huangquan City, and then there was a fire all around, so I had to Escaped into Huangquan City."

Chu He and Zhou Wen's experiences in entering Huangquan City were actually similar, but Zhou Wen thought of another very important question.
