Chapter 717: Inner Ghost (I) [Three-in-one]
Hearing what Long Xiaofeng said about more than 20 years of grievances and secrets for more than 20 years is finally about to be revealed, I didn't rush to kneel down and kowtow at that time, just looked at Long Xiaofeng and Su Yunfei with a blank face: "You, what are you talking about, I can't understand a word." ”
"Stinky boy, it's weird if you can understand." Long Xiaofeng glanced at me: "Your family's situation is far more complicated than my Long family and Qin family, and the degree of complexity is definitely not something you can't imagine." Hurry up and kneel down and kowtow to your dad a few times! ”
"He, he's really my dad!" I looked at the spiritual position on the altar with some suspicion: "My father's name is Ye Fei?" ”
"To be exact, your father is not called Ye Fei, he should be called Shen Fei. However, in order to commemorate a person, he has always been surnamed Ye, and he also asked your young son to follow the surname Ye, in order to let his Ye family have a descendant, so as not to cut off the incense. ”
"Xiaofeng, let's talk about these things later!" This time it was Su Yunfei's turn to say Long Xiaofeng: "It's not too early, it's time for us to set off." It's not that you don't know that the relationship between Xiaofei's family is very complicated, think that back then, the wives he was marrying in Guangming Media married four on the same day, not to mention that he also had inexplicable relationships with several other women. It is estimated that if he is alive now, he may not be able to explain his to Xiaoyun, let alone you. Hahahaha......"
"Hehe, that's right!" Long Xiaofeng shook his head, and suddenly reached out and slapped me on the back of the head: "Stinky boy, I told you to kneel down and kowtow to your father, why haven't you reacted after calling it for a long time!" ”
Long Xiaofeng's slap was not light, I was already very confused, but after being slapped, I was even more confused. After all, I always thought that he was my father, but now the situation has become that my father told me that he was not my father, and my father was actually dead a long time ago, and he would have become a jar of ashes.
"Dad, you're really not my dad?" I still looked at Long Xiaofeng with some disbelief. The main reason is that I am used to calling him that, and this sudden change is really unacceptable to me.
"Hey......" Long Xiaofeng sighed lightly: "I can't say that I'm not your father, but I have to add a dry word in front!" Although I have always treated you as if you were my own son, what is fake is fake after all. Say goodbye to your dad first, after the worship, as for what you call me, it can remain the same, you can still call me dad all the time. ”
"That's right!" As soon as Long Xiaofeng's voice fell, Su Yunfei immediately answered: "You are my godson and his godson, and it is the same for Dad." We all treat you as if you were our own son, dad and goddad are just titles, we don't need to worry so much. ”
Hearing what Long Xiaofeng and Su Yunfei said, I finally mustered up the courage to face the reality.
I stared blankly at the spirit position for a while, although I didn't know much about this strange father, I knew that Long Xiaofeng and Su Yunfei didn't need to deceive me about this matter. So I knelt down in front of the spiritual seat, kowtowed three times, and then called out, "Dad." ”
I didn't say anything superfluous, because I was too strange to him, I had never met him, and I didn't have the slightest affection. Not even the slightest feeling of distress. I don't know why I was so cold at the time, but that's what I really thought.
Maybe I was eager to know what Long Xiaofeng and Su Yunfei wanted to do, so after I kowtowed, I turned around and asked them, "Dad...... No, Long, Uncle Long, what happened that day in Kangle Rende? ”
"Hey......" Long Xiaofeng sighed lightly and shook his head slowly: "Okay, from today onwards, you can call me Uncle Long, you can call me Godfather, whatever you want." Although you have called my father for so many years, I am used to hearing it, and I am indeed a little reluctant to change my heart suddenly, but how can I be a good man, how can I be qualified to be your father. ”
"I ......" I was a little embarrassed, but I only said one word "I", and Long Xiaofeng interrupted me: "You don't need to explain it to me, let me encounter this kind of thing, I will definitely be more painful than you." It doesn't matter what you call me, it's just a title, I just think that we have been father and son for so many years, and suddenly I heard that my Uncle Long in your family is a little awkward. ”
"Haha......" Su Yunfei smiled and patted Long Xiaofeng on the shoulder: "Xiaofeng, you are still young, if you want a son, you can find a woman to give birth to one for you......"
"It's not serious!" Long Xiaofeng glanced at Su Yunfei, and then glanced at Fang Lin next to him: "There are juniors in you who are also virtuous!" ”
"Haha......" Su Yunfei smiled haughtily: "Okay, don't talk nonsense, let's go, let's take the two of them to Wangfeng Cliff to sit." ”
"Lookout Cliff?" I said blankly.
"Oh......" Long Xiaofeng stretched out his hand to put his arm on my shoulder, "There is a cliff on the north side of this island, and it is also the highest position on this island. Every summer, in the evening, as long as you and Uncle Su get together here, we will go to the Wangfeng Cliff for a drink. In the past, when your father didn't have an accident, the three of us brothers went to Wangfeng Cliff to drink together, and now it's just the two of us. ”
"You can pull it down!" Su Yunfei took Long Xiaofeng's words: "You bought this island, this house is also yours, and the name is called Longjia Courtyard, you make you the same as those high-ranking mountain and wild monks." Do you think we don't know that the word 'wind' in Wangfeng Cliff is a character in your name that you deliberately chosen! ”
"Hehe...... Long Xiaofeng sneered: "When the three of us brothers built this house together, I asked you what the name was, but you didn't say anything, they all said that I was highly educated, and told me to take it casually." After taking it, you have an opinion, who called you two uneducated buns, can you blame me! ”
"You act as if you have a high level of education, aren't you just a high school graduate......" Su Yunfei and Long Xiaofeng actually quarreled in front of me and Fang Lin.
Although on the surface they seem to be fighting quite seriously, I can tell that they are very happy in their hearts at the moment. They were just reminiscing about the good times the brothers spent together. After all, Long Xiaofeng was not like this when he quarreled with Chen Ye before.
Fang Lin may have never seen Long Xiaofeng's side, she was surprised at first with her mouth wide open, and then slowly changed from surprise to coquettish smile.
As for me, I was neither surprised nor amused. When Fang Lin and I followed the two of them side by side towards the Wangfeng Cliff, I kept thinking about what kind of person that man named Ye Fei was. In my heart, I always felt that Long Xiaofeng was enough to defy the sky, but Long Xiaofeng said that he was not qualified to be my father.
There is also such an extremely smart person as Su Yunfei, even when he seems to mention that person, his eyebrows will become fluttering. This made me even more curious about him.
What happened more than twenty years ago, and how did he die. It is said that with the ability of the three of them, it should not be so easy for someone to play tricks with them and kill them......
Along the way, I kept thinking about it. There is a bluestone path from the camouflage house to the Wangfeng Cliff, the road is relatively easy to walk, and it took us less than ten minutes to come to a cliffside.
This cliff is indeed the highest point on the island. Standing on the cliff offers a panoramic view of the island.
Standing on the edge of the cliff and looking down, the straight-line distance should be one or two hundred meters, which is not high, but not short either.
Although the view from the cliff was beautiful, and the blue sky and deep blue water around me were beautiful, I did not have the slightest interest in admiring the surrounding scenery, because as soon as I came to the cliff, my attention was drawn by a sword stuck in the highest rock on the cliff.
The general shape of this sword is no different from that of ordinary swords, except that the hilt of this sword is very special, the hilt is not as formal as an ordinary sword, and its hilt is like a piece of white feathers with a slight curve.
The tail of the hilt is pointed, and it is noticeably sharp. It is estimated that the tail of the hilt of the sword should still be exposed four or five centimeters in the adult hand. It seems that this sword can not only hurt people with its body, but also with its hilt.
On each side of the hilt of the sword were inlaid with two very dazzling rubies the size of index fingers, blood red, like two bright tears of blood. In particular, the two rubies are shining with colorful light under the sun's rays at the moment, which is particularly beautiful and dazzling.
Of course, these are not the most eye-catching, the most striking thing is the terrifying sharpness that emanates from the sword, and you don't need to test it to know that the sword must be very sharp. But the most shocking thing is that the sword is stuck in a large rock. I don't know how long this sword is, but it's only about 30 centimeters long with the hilt exposed.
If this was an existence about the same length as Fang Lin's soft sword, then how this sword was inserted into the stone was an unsolved mystery. In fact, even if it is a short sword, it can make ordinary people stunned.
A meter away from the large stone where the sword was inserted was an artificially made stone table, which was round, not square. There are three stone benches around the stone table.
As soon as Long Xiaofeng and Su Yunfei walked to the stone table, they sat on the stone bench by themselves, they obviously saw the surprised expressions of Fang Lin and I staring at the sword, but they just didn't want to take the initiative to explain to us.
It wasn't until I opened my mouth to ask what was going on with this sword that Long Xiaofeng smiled at me: "This sword is your family's treasure and was left to you by your father." He had already sealed his sword and quit the rivers and lakes for the sake of your mothers, but as a result, hey...... Don't mention these sad things for the time being, you just need to know now that your father once said that one day your Uncle Su and I find out who the murderer of him is, let us take you here to take this sword, and he said that he would let you take this sword with your own hands to avenge him. Alright, you better find a way to take this sword away! ”
"Sword?" I pursed my lips, not taking Long Xiaofeng's words seriously.
Long Xiaofeng is such a smart person, of course, he saw what I was thinking: "Why, you don't believe that this is a sword? Grass, you kid, you know at a glance that it's an illiterate bun. Do you know how bloody this blood feather set off on the rivers and lakes back then! It was with this sword that your father was able to fight his way out of the enemy's encirclement again and again. Forget it, I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you, if you don't believe it, find something to try and you'll know, hearing is false, seeing is believing. There are some things that you don't see with your own eyes, and you won't believe when others say that they are in heaven. ”
"Qin Yun, I'll try it for you!" Fang Lin smiled slightly, and pulled out her soft sword from her waist. Just as she raised her sword to cut it, Long Xiaofeng suddenly shouted: "Busy!" Fang Lin, this sword of yours is a token of love that Li Kexiu sent to you for Qin Yun, don't break it......"
"Uncle Long, you ......" Fang Linqiao's face instantly turned red. It was also when I heard Long Xiaofeng say that I realized that Fang Lin's soft sword was actually a token of love given to her by Li Kexiu.
"Hahahaha......" Long Xiaofeng and Su Yunfei laughed together, and then, Long Xiaofeng continued: "Okay, okay, when I didn't say anything, so let's do it, if your sword is broken, wouldn't it be better for you to ask Qin Yun to give you this blood feather." This blood feather is more than a thousand times better than the sword in your hand. ”
"Hehe, Qin Yun, are you willing to give it to me?" Fang Lin suddenly looked at me with an excited face.
"Of course you will, take it if you want!" I arrived without hesitation. As soon as my words came out, they immediately attracted a burst of eyes from Long Xiaofeng and Su Yunfei.
At that time, I didn't realize what they meant by rolling their eyes, but when Fang Lin raised his hand and slashed at the blade of the sword on the stone, I only heard a clear sound of "ding", and the soft sword in Fang Lin's hand, which was originally very tough, broke in response. All that remained in her hand was half of the sword and a hilt.
At that moment, not only Fang Lin was stunned, but I was also stunned.
"Damn, such a dick!" I couldn't help but exclaim. Although I could see from a long distance that this sword was something special, after all, it had obviously been inserted here for many years, but there was no rust at all under the corrosive effect of the salty and humid sea breeze. And it still sparkles in the light of the eyes, and it looks like someone wiping it every day. What makes me stand out the most is the two rubies on the hilt of his sword and the sharpness on the blade. That determination makes people can't help but feel a sense of jealousy towards it in their hearts, as if they have a feeling of not daring to approach, for fear of scratching themselves.
Before, though, I just had that feeling. Even when Long Xiaofeng told us it was a sword, I still had a little disdain for it.
But after Fang Lin slashed through it with a sword, its sword immediately broke in two, and my opinion of this sword was very different. You must know that although Fang Lin's sword has been broken, there is nothing wrong with that sword inserted in the stone, and not even the slightest gap in the blade of the sword has been found.
I have used to fight with people with knives many times, and the most profound impact on me is that two machetes against each other, both knives will leave deep gaps to varying degrees. It's really the first time I've seen something like this today.
"Hahahaha......" Su Yunfei and Long Xiaofeng looked at me and Fang Lin and shook their heads with a strong smile.
"Fang Lin, I told you just now not to waste your sword, but you just didn't listen. Now, your love token is scrapped! "Long Xiaofeng Channel.
Fang Linqiao's face was flushed, but at this moment she seemed to care more about the sword stuck in the stone.
"Hehe, you don't think about it, how can an ordinary sword be inserted into this granite with such a high hardness!" Su Yunfei also smiled.
"Is there really a sword in this world?" I'm still a little bit of a believer. In my worldview, I don't think there is any sword in this world. In my opinion, the so-called swords and swords in martial arts are nothing more than harder than ordinary swords.
"Hmph......" Long Xiaofeng smiled and shook his head: "When I hadn't seen Blood Feather before, I didn't really believe that there was a sword in this world, but after seeing Blood Feather, I believed it." If you don't believe it, you can't do it, because this sword can really sharpen iron like clay, blow hair and break hair, this is definitely not blowing. See for yourselves, this sword has been inserted here by your father for more than twenty years, and not only is there no rust at all, but it is getting brighter and brighter. Don't get me wrong, we've never been here to polish this sword. If it had been replaced with other metals, this sword would have been rusted a long time ago. But it, as if it had life, was getting brighter and brighter. ”
"I don't believe it yet!" I was a little unconvinced: "What is cutting iron like clay, blowing hair and breaking hair, that is so mysterious." With that, I drew the dagger from my waist and rushed forward to slash at the blade of the sword.
"Ding ......" was another crisp sound of gold and stone, and my military dagger was also broken. The cross-sectional cut looked as smooth as if it had been polished, showing how sharp the sword was.
"Gollum...... I looked at the half-broken military dagger in my hand, and my heart was already pounding with excitement. Of course, I know that the steel used in military daggers is much tougher than ordinary knives, but it still hasn't escaped being cut in two.
At that time, after I came back to my senses, I shamelessly said to Fang Lin: "Fang Lin, this sword was left to me by my father, it is the treasure of our family, I can't give this sword to you......"
"Hahahaha......" Su Yunfei and Long Xiaofeng almost laughed. But Fang Lin was so angry that his mouth was about to cross the river.
Immediately afterwards, I climbed onto the stone and began to draw the sword with all my might, and as a result, I tossed for more than ten minutes, and even used the strength to feed, but the sword did not waver in the slightest.
Long Xiaofeng probably saw that I was tossing enough, and finally told me the truth: "Okay, boy, that sword was inserted by your father himself, and I didn't pull it out with your Uncle Su back then, do you think you have more strength than when we were young." Your father said back then that in the whole world, apart from him, there will be no more than five people who can pull out this sword. He had already taught us how to do it, and he said that when you grow up, there is only one way to take this sword, and that is to use explosives to blast it all and shatter all of it, otherwise, there is no other way. ”
"Alright, we have some explosives stored on the island, which were originally intended to be used to fry fish, and we will lend you a little later. Hehe......" Su Yunfei also smiled: "Now let's talk about the business first!" Aren't you curious about what happened that night at Connaught Rende? ”
Hearing Su Yunfei say that, I finally jumped off the big rock.
"Xiaoyun, do you know why I set up such a bureau that night!" Long Xiaofeng's face suddenly became very serious: "All this has to start with an incident that happened with your father on the battlefield in Vietnam and South China. That's right, the Vietnamese side did send a batch of gold to the Soviet Union before the Vietnam-Yugoslav self-defense counterattack. However, this batch of yellow gold is not from Yue-Nan, but from your family. Before the war, your father sent a group of masters to look for a batch of treasures in the Zhongyue border, that is, the Hades Valley that Chen Ye and your third uncle took you to some time ago. What exactly happened, before your dad died, due to limited time, he didn't have time to say that he left. However, your Uncle Su and I know that this batch of treasures is huge, and the group of people sent out by your father to find the treasures only brought back less than a third.
As a result, they were discovered by the Vietnamese army on the return trip. At that time, there should have been a rumor of an in-traitor, and a group of masters sent out by your father were almost wiped out. Later, this batch of yellow gold was snatched away by the Vietnamese army. They used this amount of gold as a bargaining chip to buy a lot of weapons from the Soviet Union. Your father went to the border at that time, that is, to investigate, check this batch, and the gold. The three of us brothers also met at that time, and not long after, we stammered together. Of course, your dad didn't tell us about the gold before we married brothers.
It just so happened that not long after we got married, your Uncle Su received a report that the Vietnamese side was going to transport a large batch of yellow gold out of the country, and as soon as your father learned the news from our mouth, he asked you Uncle Su not to report it for the time being, and he said that it would not be too late for us to grab this batch of yellow gold first. He asked me and you Uncle Su to not know what to do for the time being, so as not to report it in case there is a spy in our department, and it will be leaked. We thought it made sense, so we didn't report it as your dad said.
As a result, your father secretly went to steal the gold without us. Although we have tried our best to block the news to only a very small number of people, it seems that the Vietnamese side still knows about the fact that someone is going to rob the gold. Therefore, when your father took a group of his masters to grab this batch of gold, he was surrounded by people as soon as he went. When we received the news and brought someone to rescue him, he had already been shot more than ten times. After that, he didn't say a few words to us, but hurriedly explained some of the things we didn't know about him and left.
At that time, he explained two things to us, the first thing was to get you back from the Qin family and let us raise you as an adult. The second thing is to go to the Forbidden Island in time to inform your mother and your second, third, and fourth mothers, as well as a Taoist temple to inform your father's senior sister Li Moqiu. He said that there were traitors on the Forbidden Island, and told us to inform them to leave the Forbidden Island as far away as possible. As for who this traitor is, we don't have a little bit of an eyebrow until now. ”
After listening to Long Xiaofeng's words, my first reaction was: "Go to the Qin family and get me back?" How could I be in the Qin family? ”
"I don't know, anyway, I got you back in the hands of a woman named Qin Ai in the Qin family at that time. After I told Qin Ai about your father's situation, Qin Ai asked us to take you away, and since then, Qin Ai has never appeared again! Long Xiaofeng shook his head: "Actually, I don't know much about your father's social relationships, and you Uncle Su don't know much. We are brothers with your father, but also because we see that your father is upright, bold, without any bad intentions, and he is also strong in martial arts, and has some chivalrous demeanor. That's all.
It is also through these years of investigation that we gradually learn more and more about your father. The more we get to know your dad, the more we admire your dad's life. His life can really only be described as legendary. But I'll talk to you about this slowly when I have time in the future, and let's talk about what happened that night in Kangle Rende. All of this is just a background to what I'm about to tell you.
It can be said that for so many years after you and Uncle Su were discharged from the army, we have been helping your father investigate the traitor who killed your father back then. It took so much effort for us to finally find out some eyebrows. ”
"Actually, I didn't do much, your Uncle Long can be said to have gone bankrupt to help your father avenge it." Su Yunfei took over and said, "He paid all the Long family for this. Although your father led people to attack the gold back then, they were surrounded by Vietnamese troops, but the gold was still snatched away. This is also the reason why your Uncle Long has carried the black cauldron for so many years. Well, I expected the day to come, so I laid myself out on the field. At that time, there was no NDA test, so I made a fake corpse that was similar to my size, put the relevant documents I was wearing, and burned the man's face with gasoline, and died a heroic death.
But your Uncle Long didn't listen to persuasion, he couldn't let go of the Long family, so he went back and was suspected for more than 20 years. ”
"You've been talking about it for a long time, but you still haven't talked about the matter of Kangle Rende that night!" I'm a little impatient.
"Stinky boy, why are you in a hurry!" Long Xiaofeng said angrily: "Actually, the matter of Kang Le Rende that night was very simple. The reason why I have been staying in the light with my original identity is because I deduced from what your father said before he died that two-thirds of the treasures hidden in Hades Gully are still missing. That's a lot of one-third of gold back then, let alone two-thirds. Your dad originally said that there was an in-traitor on the Forbidden Island, that is to say, this in-traitor was definitely overheard by someone on the phone between your dad and the person who went to open the treasure when he was on the Forbidden Island.
This person was a yellow finch once in Vietnam, and he must still want to get all the remaining treasures. Then, your Uncle Su and I were the only two people who guarded your father's breath at that time, and that person must have eyeliner to see us around. ”
"What do you mean......" I interrupted Long Xiaofeng's words, "that person will definitely lurk around you undercover in order to get other treasures." ”
"Well, almost." Long Xiaofeng nodded: "The reason why I didn't disappear with your uncle is because one of us is in the light and the other in the dark, so that we can find out the person who killed your father together." ”
"Do you think that your Uncle Long created a Kant to come out and be full of food and hold on!" Su Yunfei continued: "On the surface, he is trying to clear his name for more than 20 years, but in fact, he is trying to bring out the real Kant back then. Because the commander of the Vietnamese army who escorted the batch of gold was called Kang De. We have verified through many aspects that he colluded with the traitor next to your father, and it was they who collaborated with the guards to steal the gold. Since then, the commander, Kant, has disappeared. ”
"How much does this have to do with what happened that night at Connaught?" I was killed by the two of them. At that time, I didn't know why I was in such a hurry, but I was reminded by Long Xiaofeng's next sentence, and I realized that the reason why I was so anxious was because I was eager to know whether the betrayal of so many people that night was true or false.
"You kid, I see that you are not anxious about Kang Le Rende's incident itself, but you really want to know why Xiaoqian and Xiaolan were so ruthless that night, right?" Long Xiaofeng said disdainfully: "Okay, I'll tell you the truth, everyone didn't know about what happened that night. For me it's acting, for them it's a real betrayal. ”
"What......" I instantly petrified on the spot.
"Boy, don't get so excited, don't care so much." Long Xiaofeng's face was surprisingly calm: "People live for a lifetime, as long as you are old enough to live, things like Kang Le Rende that night actually have the opportunity to encounter many times." This cannot be said to be our sorrow, only their sorrow. Do you know why Qin Huaiyu joined forces with Liu Tai'an to betray me? ”
"For your assets?" I said self-righteously: "Uncle Long, you must have a lot of assets in Kangle Rende and Kangde Manor combined!" ”
"Hmph......" Uncle Long's mouth twitched: "You can say yes, you can also say no." The most fundamental reason is that someone is sowing discord behind the scenes. Qin Huaiyu has long had the idea of betraying me, but she doesn't have such a high IQ. Liu Tai'an always wanted to betray me, but he didn't dare. Even if these two people are combined, they will never dare to betray me. Therefore, there must be someone behind them who is manipulating this big chess game. ”
"Who is it?" I hurriedly asked.
Long Xiaofeng smiled slightly, and suddenly looked at Su Yunfei. But Su Yunfei turned his head and smiled at Fang Lin: "Miss Fang, shouldn't you take out that miniature earphone in your ear for us to see?" What is the relationship between you and that woman surnamed Wu! ”
