Chapter 003 Solemn Entrustment

"The information was in one of my comrades-in-arms. He's been arrested, and the material has been turned into reactionary books, and the little have been set on fire. According to the information, this Jade Buddha is related to a shocking secret. What exactly does it matter, we didn't find it in the materials. Zeng Sheng's face was full of regret.

"It's a shame. How many good things are wasted. O iniquity! Zhang Zhiruo didn't know what she remembered, and said with infinite emotion.

"Alas," Zeng Sheng just sighed and didn't make any response.

What could he do? He felt powerless and resentful about what had happened in the past two years. What's going on? What's really going on in this world? Everything around me became strange.

There is only one sigh, expressing all his emotions. Zeng Sheng fell into deep thought, his eyes condensed, his eyes glazed, and chaotic......

"Uncle Zeng, Uncle Zeng", Zhang Zhiruo's hand shook in front of Zeng Sheng's eyes, "What's wrong with you?" Would you like to drink some water first? ”

"Oh, it's okay, I'm a little stunned. Where did I go? Zeng Sheng patted his head before continuing: "Uh...... Oh, the material just says that the next step is to find the box that originally contained this jade Buddha. ”

Zeng Sheng took the water cup handed over by Zhang Zhiruo, took a sip, and continued: "And they have already made a preliminary plan. It's just that we didn't find anything about finding a plan. We all think that this secret must be discovered by putting the Jade Buddha and the box together. ”

Speaking of this, Zeng Sheng took his eyes off the Buddha statue, stared at Zhang Zhiruo's face tightly, and said solemnly again: "You have to promise me that you must keep this jade Buddha for me." ”

"I will, Uncle Zeng," Zhang Zhiruo also understood the seriousness of this matter, raised her right hand, raised three fingers and said: "I swear in the name of Marx that I must regard it as more important than my life." When your problems are solved, I will return it to you myself. ”

Zeng Sheng patted Zhang Zhiruo's shoulder with satisfaction, and said seriously: "Originally, this thing should have been handed over to the state, this is the wealth of the country, and no individual or group can take it for himself. ”

Zeng Sheng paused, "But now...... Hey, let's keep it for the country for the time being. Zeng Sheng said in pain, his voice trembled a little, and the crystal tears swirled in his eyes, almost falling.

Zeng Sheng clearly knew that if this jade Buddha pendant was handed over to it in this period, what kind of ending would this gadget, or even himself, have.

During this period, what was required was the unity of faith. There is only one ism, and all the others are reactionary, to be beaten, and not allowed to exist.

I don't know how many precious cultural relics and antiques have been destroyed as feudal remnants. If he handed it over now, then with the disappearance of this Jade Buddha pendant, wouldn't the secret related to it never see the light of day?

And besides himself, a "two-faced", a "traitor", can what he says be trusted? Now not to say that the secret has not been found, even if it has been found, who can say clearly, how did he know this secret?

"Carry the revolution through to the end" was not just a slogan in this period.

According to the material, this secret has the potential to turn the tide of the situation between China and Japan. The materials were compiled by the Japanese at that time, which means that this secret was able to reverse the situation of the Sino-Japanese War at that time. Then the secret should be unimaginable. ”

Zeng Sheng returned to reality from all kinds of doubts, and further talked about the importance of this jade Buddha pendant, he was really afraid that Zhang Zhi would not pay enough attention to it, afraid that the secret would disappear, afraid that he would be sorry for his ancestors, and he would be sorry for the country.

"Uncle Zeng, this thing is too important, I will definitely keep it at all costs!" Zhang Zhiruo assured again.

"One more thing to remember, don't let anyone else find it, based on some clues, we suspect that there are others looking for it as well!" Zeng Sheng suddenly thought.

"Anyone else is looking for this jade Buddha pendant?" Zhang Zhiruo unconsciously repeated.

"Yes, when we found the cave, the military facilities inside were still basically intact." Zeng Sheng replied, "We only got back the jade Buddha pendant and the information in the safe." Originally, I was going to come back and organize the staff, and then go and move everything else back. ”

Zeng Sheng lit a cigarette. He hadn't drawn it for a long time, and this was the one he found when he was holding the Jade Buddha pendant just now. After igniting it, he took a puff and choked, coughing there.

Zhang Zhiruo didn't stop it, he knew that Uncle Zeng was very uncomfortable now, and he needed to smoke to relieve his emotions. She just walked up to Zeng Sheng's side and patted Zeng Sheng's back gently, hoping that this would make him feel better.

Zeng Sheng is also in his forties, and he still lives alone. When he was in college, he was an underground party, and it was impossible to fall in love, he knew that his work was very dangerous, like walking on the tip of a knife, and he didn't know which day the incident would happen. He didn't want his wife to be a widow.

After graduating, the civil war broke out again, and he still didn't see the light of day, and he was still an underground worker. When New China was established, his heart was also filled with one person, that is, the female underground party he saved. It's a pity that King Xiang has affection, and the goddess has no intention.

Nearly twenty years have passed. He still can't accommodate other women. That man was so perfect that he couldn't leave the slightest space in his heart for others. The two are also in constant contact, and he also helps her love her daughter, just like her own daughter.

Zhang Zhiruo has never seen her father, but she has never received any less fatherly love from Zeng Sheng.

has been liberated for so many years, Zhang Zhiruo's thinking is not so feudal, and she does not count on her mother and her father, who has never met her. She would also like to see her mother pampered.

It's just that my mother always thinks that her in-laws are a family with status, status, and a head and face. If the daughter-in-law can't be widowed, she will lose her share. Although I didn't live with my in-laws. But Zhang Zhiruo's mother still respects the Zhang family very much.

Zhang Zhiruo felt guilty for her mother, and she was even more grateful for Zeng Sheng's kindness, and she always treated him as filial piety as a father. Looking at Uncle Zeng's more and more wrinkles and vaguely visible white hair, her heart was sour.

"But when we went the second time, we found that everything inside had been destroyed, but we didn't take it, and we didn't even touch the place. The military quilts, uniforms and some daily necessities were also left untouched. Zeng Sheng forcibly suppressed his cough, only said two words, and coughed again.

Zeng Sheng took a sip of water and continued: "The strange thing is that only the ground near the original safe has been excavated, and the whole thing has been turned over, and the depth of the excavation is more than one meter deep on average. Zeng Sheng had two arms and retracted a little, for fear that there would be a difference in the comparison.

"Cough, cough", Zeng Sheng coughed twice, "This smoke is really not suitable for himself", he couldn't help but sigh a little.

"It's simply not possible that the local people have strayed into the cave. If the common people entered the cave, they would definitely move everything valuable. I guess this guy must have gone for the safe. Zeng Sheng was relieved and continued.

"These people looking for the safe should not have been the people who placed the Jade Buddha pendant in the first place, otherwise they wouldn't have dug so deep into the earth. But they must know where the safe is. Zhang Zhiruo somewhat understood.

She continued to analyze: "Judging from this incident, the two groups of people who put the Jade Buddha and those who are looking for the Jade Buddha may be in the same group. It may also be that the person looking for the Jade Buddha didn't know where to know about the Jade Buddha, and then began to look for it. ”

"That's what we thought, and, after analysis, we felt that these people were all soldiers. Why did they destroy weapons facilities? It is not intended to be obtained by people who find out later. There are also some military quilts, uniforms and some daily necessities inside, but they are very well preserved. This shows that they are not worried about these weapons being taken away by the people, they are only worried that those weapons will be brought back by the government army. Zeng Sheng nodded and said.

Zeng Sheng was very satisfied with the niece in front of him, smart enough, and a little thorough.

"Then these people may also be hostile elements, there are ......"

"Dangdang, Dangdang" Zhang Zhiruo's words were not finished when he was interrupted by a heavy knock on the door outside.

"I can't say any more, they're here, hurry up and get the Jade Buddha pendant ready. Remember, the stakes are high and you should never take it lightly, and keep it no matter what. Zeng Sheng emphasized again.

Zeng Sheng was still not very relieved, after all, in Zeng Sheng's eyes, this was not just a jade antique, this was a peerless secret related to the fate of the country.

"Well, I will." Zhang Zhiruo promised.

"Dangdang, Dangdang" The sound of slamming the door became heavier. "Hurry up and open the door, hurry up and open the door. We are from the Military Control Commission. "There were all kinds of noises outside the door, and there was a lot of noise, and people were upset.

"Come with me. I'll send you out. If they find out you're with me, don't even think about getting out of it. Zeng Sheng took out a piece of rope from under the bed, took Zhang Zhiruo's hand out of the house, entered the yard, and turned to the backyard.

"Dangdang, Dangdang" If the door wasn't strong enough, it is estimated that it would have been smashed open.

"What's the matter, if we don't open the door again, we're going to kick it." The man outside the gate shouted. They still exercised some restraint.
