Chapter 505: More than Knowing
The orphan who no one cared about since he was a child suddenly turned into a son of a big family.
Even a person like Fat B, who prides himself on having a very strong ability to bear in his heart, is a little difficult to change his identity. Especially with a kind and amiable ancestor with explosive combat effectiveness. It makes Fat B feel like he's daydreaming.
Although Fat B has some general understanding of his origins, there are still many mysteries that remain unsolved. For example: the accidental deaths of my grandfather and father, and the real reason for my mother's suicide. Of course, there is also why my grandfather's martial arts hall is empty.
So these mysteries are like a dark cloud hanging over his heart, which makes people uneasy.
"Master, let's go down and have a look. You may be able to find some useful clues. Fat B took out his phone and turned on the flashlight mode.
"Good! Liang'er, you follow me. Liu Xing nodded, waved his sleeves, and strode into the damp and foul-smelling passage.
The floor of the passage was covered with the old bluestone slabs, which had been left unattended for a long time because of the heavy humidity, and were covered with slippery moss.
However, Fat B and Liu Xing are not ordinary people. The slippery ground didn't make much of a difference to them.
The bluestone passage was not long, and after about five or six paces, the two of them came to a closed basement the size of a garage.
The light in the basement is very dim, and I can barely see the things around me by relying on the light of the fat B mobile phone and the sunlight from the entrance of the passage.
At the foot of a wall, there is a small bed. The sheets and duvet covers on the cot were neatly folded, but they were covered with mold.
Next to the bed is a set of coffee tables and small chairs, and a set of delicate ceramic tea sets are placed on the coffee table. In addition, there are small compartments embedded in the wall, and each compartment is almost filled with various books.
"This basement is your grandfather's private library. The owner of the Huang Pavilion is obsessed with martial arts, and his collection of books is incomparably rich. Liu Xing walked to the side of the coffee table, picked up a ceramic teacup, and said with emotion: "I think back then, every time I came to the Hehuang Martial Arts Hall, I would make tea with your grandfather here and discuss martial arts." Exchange some martial arts experience. ”
"Hmm!" Fat B replied casually, but a pair of eyes glanced everywhere. He felt that his grandfather's He Huangwu Pavilion would never be closed for no reason, and there must be some reason for it.
Soon, Fat B found that under the pillow of the cot, there seemed to be something pressing, and it looked bulging. He walked over and pulled open the moldy pillow, revealing a set of baby clothes and a small rattle underneath.
"Master, didn't you say that this is my grandfather's private library? How can there be baby clothes and toys? Fat B asked puzzled.
"This! I don't know that back then, since your father passed away, I hardly ever came to the martial arts hall again. I'm not in the mood to talk to your grandfather about making tea here. I don't know how these things can exist here, as far as I know, at that time, the women in your He Huangwu Pavilion, except for the nanny who cooked and did chores, was your mother, and I had never heard of a woman with children. Moreover, this is your grandfather's private place, and he will definitely not bring anyone else in. Liu Xing frowned, trying to recall the situation back then.
After a while, Liu Xing suddenly frowned and said, "Is it yours?" Calculate the time, the time you were born happened to be at that time, could it be that Siyao took you to live in this basement at that time? However, why would Si Yao take you to live in such a damp place when she was just born? ”
"I don't understand it either." Fat B shook his head, he couldn't figure out why. So, Fat B looked away, and soon found a picture frame that had fallen from the wall to the ground in the corner of the wall. The frame is surrounded by splinters of loose glass.
Fat B walked over and picked up the frame. Although the glass on the surface of this photo frame is broken, the photos inside are still intact.
The photo shows two middle-aged men and a young girl. Fat B quickly recognized the girl in the photo as his mother Huang Siyao. One of the two men made Fat B feel a little familiar. So, he brought the light of the phone closer and took a closer look.
When he saw the man's face clearly, his eyes couldn't help but widen. The hand holding the photo also shook.
"What's wrong?" Liu Xing discovered the abnormality of Fat B, he turned around and asked with concern.
"Who is this person, Master?" Fat B asked, pointing to a man in the photo.
"You know him?" Liu Xing frowned.
"It's more than awareness. It's all too familiar, and if it weren't for him, I would have died in the orphanage. Fat B's eyes suddenly turned red, and he said with some excitement: "Master, please tell me quickly, who is this person?" ”。
"This picture, eighteen years ago, has been hanging in this house. The person you are referring to, his name is Huang Wu, and he was your grandfather's old housekeeper back then. This person is loyal and honest, he was a nameless orphan since he was a child, and after being adopted by the Huang family, he was named Huang Wu, and followed your grandfather all his life. Later, with the disappearance of your grandfather, he disappeared without a trace. Liu Xing took the photo in Fat B's hand, took a closer look, and said.
"The old butler is actually my grandfather's old butler." Fat B's mouth kept babbling.
"Why are you so excited to see an old housekeeper, the one next to you is your grandfather, the owner of the Huang Pavilion." Liu Xing pointed to another middle-aged man with deep eyes in the photo.
"Why? Why? Why? Fat B's face suddenly became a little sad.
"What's wrong, kid? This old housekeeper Huang Wu, is there any problem? Liu Xing stepped forward, patted Fat B's back, and asked while comforting.
"Master, do you remember, I told you that I grew up in an orphanage?" Fat B's eye circles are slightly red.
"Yes." Liu Xing nodded.
"I also said that when I was in the orphanage, there was a special person who took special care of me. Whatever is delicious and fun, it is provided to me first. Even the rare place to go to school, he was the first to think of me. Fat B said, tears involuntarily flowed from the corners of his eyes.
"Yes. That person is the old superintendent who took the most care of you in the orphanage, right? Through this period of getting along, the relationship between Liu Xing and Fat B has been very harmonious, and Fat B is even more open-minded to pour out his suffering experience over the years in front of Liu Xing.
"Yes. He is the person I respect the most in my life, his name is Huang Wu, and all the nameless children in the orphanage follow his surname Huang. ”
