Chapter 323: Return
"What are you?"
Looking at the pile of white paper handed over to him, Lin Xi was obviously stunned, he didn't understand what the old man wanted to do?
The old man's voice was no longer so loud at this moment, but a little vicissitudes, he turned his back to Lin Xi, and said leisurely: "The archives in the hands of the government now, that is, the archives that you tried so hard to protect, are actually only one-third. Some of the names that appear on the file have been resolved, and some of them are too deeply involved for the government to solve, but as long as they have this evidence at hand, they can be contained. ”
Speaking of this, the old man seemed to be a little tired, and rested for a while before saying, "So it's not just Diefeng who wants to grab this list and use it as a threat to carry out his own atrocities. Those families who knew that they had done immoral things during the Anti-Japanese War also tried to get this file. And this file of my Long family was copied by my father at the risk of death, and every item on it is exactly true. And it is because of this file that my Long family was able to rise and become the leader of various secret families in the following decades. ”
"But as time went on, the old fellows of my age went into the ground, and the young people didn't seem to know about it. That's why my Long family is in such a situation. ”
Although the old man's voice was very soft, for some reason, listening to Lin Xi's ears made him feel a chill all over him.
"You want to give him to me? I don't understand why you're doing that? ”
The old man turned to look directly at Lynsey and chuckled, "I didn't think I would do this until I met you. Maybe it's really old, I just want to have a peaceful birthday for two days, and I don't want to participate in those things of fighting, killing, and conspiracy. If I hand over this thing to you today, no one will be able to think of it, I just hope that you have a little, if the Long family is really at the end of the mountain, use it to exchange it for the descendants of the Long family for a chance to live. I don't think anyone wants to refuse this thing, and they will definitely do their best to protect my Long family's escape. But remember, you should never take it out until you have to! Every name on it is enough to make the entire Underground World Realm tremble and feel uneasy about the country. If the Long family can get out of danger and turn the crisis into safety, burn this thing. Once this thing appears, the Long family will definitely become the culprit of the entire country. ”
Looking at the yellowed paper in his hand, Lin Xi really didn't know what to say, he was sure that the old man would not lie to himself, and this thing could really make the country unstable and make the situation uneasy. But if you give it to yourself, aren't you afraid that you will take it for yourself or use it for other purposes? A person who had only seen one face, so trusted, Lin Xi was silenced by the old man's pride and trust.
After a long time, Lin Xi raised his head and glanced at the old man deeply, and had made up his mind in his heart, so he took out the token that he had been keeping close to him and handed it to the old man.
"I think you're better suited to have this thing than I am."
The moment the old man saw the token, he was also stunned, and looked at it a few times, and then he said loudly: "The token of Nanhongmen? ”
"Well, it's been a long time since I've been here. I think you know better than I do about the Black Evil, now that Butterfly Edge has re-infiltrated for the token, and I'm now the target of their suspicions. So I think this token will be more suitable for you, and with your resourcefulness, I think you should be able to use it very well to alleviate the current predicament of the Long family. Moreover, your son Long Tian told me about this matter in the car, and he already knew about it. Thinking about his words now, maybe he also hoped that I could hand over the token to the Long family to withstand this crisis, but he didn't say it. ”
After speaking, Lin Xi put the file back into the iron box and said with a smile: "Since this thing is so harmful, I'm afraid that my little heart can't bear it, so it's better to return it to its original owner." Don't worry, I'm now a grasshopper on a rope with the Long family, and I'm not parting ways by doing this, but just like you, I just want to have a peaceful birthday in two days. This thing is still safer in your hands. My battlefield is in the slashing sky. ”
Lin Xi's large remarks, the old man who said it was stunned, looked at the token, and then looked at the file, he knew that with these two things as a guarantee, the crisis of the Long family that he had been worried about would definitely be turned into a disaster.
Originally, I wanted to entrust it, but I didn't expect it to evolve into such a result, could it be that this kid is really the lucky star of the Long family?
"By the way, I want to take a look at Guo Rui, isn't it convenient?"
Seeing Lin Xi change the topic, the old man who was old and refined was transparent in his heart, knowing that Lin Xi had already made a decision in his heart, and when he thanked him, he swallowed it back and nodded: "Since Guo Rui practiced Buddhism with me, his ambition has gradually melted away. I was thinking of finding a chance to let him go back, after all, it was difficult for the Long family to protect themselves. But now, it looks like he's going to be here a little longer. ”
Speaking of which, the old man had a little more confidence in his words, with the token in hand, he could do a lot of things with it, and using it as a deterrent was far more secure than that file.
Lin Xi didn't want to spend too much energy on this matter, there were enough things on him, if even the future fate of the Long family had to fall on him, he didn't know if he could bear it, so he felt more and more that handing over the token to the old man was a very good decision.
Returning to the room, he refused the old man's attempt to give him a pair of Tang Bohu's authentic handwritings, for no other reason, Lin Xi was not interested in these things.
Guo Rui's room is in the west room, not like a prisoner in the TV, just a simple dwelling. On the contrary, it occupies a huge area, and it takes two living rooms to reach the Buddhist hall where Guo Rui is located.
Pushing the door in, the murmuring of Buddha sounds lingered in his ears, and there was a slight mist in his sight, which was caused by burning incense.
A middle-aged man in a Mao suit was sitting cross-legged on the **, and his eyes that had been closed were slightly open for Lin Xi's arrival.
"I'm Lynsey."
"I know it." Guo Rui's voice was a little hoarse, but it had an inexplicable magnetism.
After just a brief conversation, the two fell silent. Lin Xi is not in a hurry, he will not leave until tomorrow, so he has a lot of time to wait for Guo Rui to speak.
The sound of the beating wooden fish seemed to have some kind of magic, so that Lin Xi couldn't help but feel the beating rhythm.
For a long time, Lin Xi didn't know how long it had been.
Guo Rui's beating action finally stopped, and he reverently made a deep gesture to the Buddha statue that was offered, and cleaned up the incense ashes scattered on the ground before saying to Lin Xi: "Come with me." ”
Moving to the adjacent living room, Guo Rui sat in the main seat, looked at Lin Xi and said word by word: "I already know about you and Zijie, I hope you can treat her well." ”
This should be what Lin Xi is more distressed about, it seems that after coming here, the drama about sentimentality is constantly being staged.
"I'm here to see you, too, for her." Lynsey replied softly.
If you look at it from the perspective of physiognomy alone, this middle-aged man with a kind face would never have thought that he was once a big brother who was both black and white, full of elegance, and even drinking tea was extremely orderly.
Although Lin Xi thought that his patience was good, he didn't think that he should spend his time on such a boring thing as drinking tea, and continued to speak, "When are you going to leave?" ”
"Why are you leaving?"
"Isn't it feeling good right now?"
"There's nothing wrong with being pure-hearted and having few desires, although I don't leave the house, but I know all the information about Zijie. Without me, she has grown a lot, so why should I let her go back to the original point and be a little princess who relies on me every day. ”
Guo Rui's words are not unreasonable, Guo Zijie when Lin Xi first met and Guo Zijie now are indeed two people.
"I'm not here today just for Zijie's affairs, I think you must also know about Guo Ziming, you know your son Mo Ruo's father, isn't it."
Guo Rui poured tea leisurely, and he couldn't see any clues on the outside, and said calmly: "From the moment the Guo family went bankrupt, I had no father-son relationship with him. ”
"Do you know what he's talking about? Or do you know the news that he almost died? ”
When he said this, Lin Xi looked at Guo Rui without blinking, trying to get some news from his eyes.
It had been learned from the West that Guo Ziming was still alive, and to be on the safe side, Lin Xi needed enough information to deal with what happened next.
However, Lin Xi still underestimated Guo Rui, his eyes were as quiet as water, without the slightest fluctuation, and said softly: "What about Zhilu Dao?" I don't know what about the road. Everything about him has nothing to do with me. ”
"You're still protecting him!" Lynsey's voice was a little muffled.
Guo Rui smiled and said leisurely: "When you become a parent, you will know why I said that." ”
After being here for so long, Lin Xi didn't get any substantive content, this Guo Rui is simply an old fox, there is not the slightest flaw in his speech, he groaned for a while and continued: "I don't have to ask about Guo Ziming, if you think this is good for Zijie." I want to know the identity of Lei Rui, even Guo Zijie can see that you and him are not a simple superior-subordinate relationship. And Lei Rui and I are in a relationship now, and I need to know a little bit about him. ”
Hearing this, Guo Rui seemed silent, just silently repeating the work of pouring tea and making tea, and only said after a while: "He is very mysterious, only like this." If you have to ask me, what is his identity? Then I can only say sorry, not that I don't want to say it, but I really don't know what to say. And the promise he gave me at the beginning was that he could co-opt the local underground forces in Shanghai, provided that he was kept with me, I believed him, and he fulfilled his promise, and that's it. ”
