An unacceptable truth
At this time they lit a small bonfire, and although there was a danger that the snakes would be attracted by the heat of the fire, it was too humid and very cold to sit down and rest without a fire.
After resting for a while, Wu Xie, who had accumulated countless questions in his heart, couldn't help but want to ask the mysterious woman in front of him, Chen Wenjin smiled and asked him to ask whatever he wanted.
Wu Xie sorted out some questions in his mind and said, "Then let's ask according to the time." First of all, the first question I want to ask is about the bottom of the Xisha Sea, what happened when you disappeared in the ancient tomb? ”
Chen Wenjin was silent for a while, then looked at Wu Xie, suddenly sighed, and said: "You actually want to know about this matter, it seems that you know a lot, this matter, it is difficult to explain clearly." Tell me, what did your third uncle tell you? ”
Wu Xie told her all the things that the third uncle told him about his reconciliation, and then said: "The third uncle said that he didn't enter the agency with you, so he doesn't know what happened after that. He has been looking for you for more than twenty years since you disappeared from the tomb. ”
After Chen Wenjin finished speaking, he smiled bitterly and paused before saying: "I wanted to tell you this question at the end, because there is a very key premise that you must understand, as for this premise, the truth of this fact, you may not believe it, you may not accept it." ”
"Say it, even if you tell me that the third uncle is actually a mutant dumpling who can talk and think, I will believe it! I've been through it these days, and I've been able to believe everything. Wu Xie said.
Chen Wenjin still looked a little worried, and then looked at the little brother, as if he wanted to communicate with him, but the little brother didn't react and sat quietly.
Chen Wenjin shrugged his shoulders, then took out a notebook from his backpack, opened it, and took out a yellowed old photo from it, which he recognized at a glance, this was a group photo of the Xisha archaeological team twenty years ago.
"I've seen this picture already." Wu Xie said.
Mengli leaned over and carefully observed this photo, there were three women in this photo, Chen Wenjin she recognized, there was really no change at all, as for one person, between the eyebrows seemed to be a bit like Xiuxiu, she guessed she should be Huo Ling. There is also a girl who should be the one who became a forbidden woman.
Actually, all the secrets are in this picture. If I tell you directly, I'm afraid you won't be able to accept it, so I'll tell you first, what is hidden in this photo. Chen Wenjin pointed to the photo, "You show me the names and locations of the people who can be read on the photos." ”
Wu Xie looked at it and said, "I only know a few people who have something to do with this matter. He first saw the stuffy oil bottle that attracted his attention the most, and said, "This is the little brother." Chen Wenjin nodded, then pointed to a girl on the side, "This is you." Chen Wenjin nodded again, "Then, this is the third uncle." Wu Xie pointed at the third uncle and said, but Chen Wenjin no longer nodded, but looked straight at Wu Xie.
Wu Xie didn't understand what she meant, Chen Wenjin took the photo back, and then asked, "Why do you think this person is your third uncle?" ”
Hearing this, Mengli understood what she meant, the third uncle and the reconciliation chain looked exactly the same, and they couldn't tell it from the appearance at all, and they were very sophisticated, even if the two exchanged identities, they couldn't even tell their own father and mother.
"This ...... This is the third uncle, I have seen his black and white photos before, and it is very similar to this. Wu Xie felt that he should have made no mistake in judgment.
Chen Wenjin smiled and said: "In this world, not only photos will be similar, two people who are related by blood may also be similar. ”
Her words hit the nail on the head, and Wu Xie finally knew what she wanted to express, "What do you mean, this person is not my third uncle?" So who is he? Wu Xie flashed countless fragments of words in his mind, and suddenly stood up, unable to control his emotions and shouted: "Impossible! ......" the little brother immediately held him down, "Could it be that this person is...... Unchaining? ”
Chen Wenjin nodded slightly, and Wu Xie sat down dejectedly, his heart was already in a mess.
"Your third uncle was indeed with us at the time, but he was not in the photo, but outside the photo." Chen Wenjin said, they immediately understood that in addition to the person in the photo, there was also a person who took the photo, and this person happened to be the third uncle.
"I'll tell you, in fact, at that time, it was not Xie Lian who came to me to ask me for my relationship, but your third uncle Wu Sanxing. What your current third uncle told you is actually saying everything backwards. That's why your third uncle won't tell you the truth. You will definitely wonder why no one finds out, it is because your third uncle has a perverse personality, he has lived alone since he was a teenager, and he rarely sees his family. So only by pretending a little and having some understanding of your third uncle's character can you be confused. ”
If the third uncle said everything backwards, then at that time, it was Xie Lian who knew about Wu Sanxing's plan and threatened him to take him to the tomb, and then in the ancient tomb, it was Xie Lian who took the diving equipment and returned to the shore, and the third uncle ...... didn't dare to continue thinking about it, Wu Xie didn't know whether it was sadness or grief and indignation at Xie Lian's concealment and killing of the third uncle.
"Then why did Xie Lian pretend to be my third uncle?" Wu Xie asked.
"It's a complicated situation, and maybe it's because of the circumstances. After he came back from the Xisha submarine tomb, we all disappeared, and he appeared in the unit well, then the problem is quite serious. Others will check him, and his identity is too wide-ranging, which may cause huge trouble. And Wu Sanxing was temporarily in the team at that time, and his name was not in the file, so after weighing the pros and cons, he may have chosen this method. And at that time, the power of the Wu family was very large, if they knew that they killed their younger brother, the consequences can be imagined, it will be a bloody storm. ”
Wu Xie seemed to think of something again, I don't know if he subconsciously didn't want to believe it in his heart, the third uncle he respected for so many years turned out to be someone else pretending, "No, no, it doesn't make sense, in the Xisha submarine tomb, we saw a line of blood words, which read: 'Wu San Province harms me', how can this be explained?" ”
"If it is reasonable, the order of the words should be read in reverse: 'Unraveling the chain will harm my Wu Sanxing and not be blind'." Mengli remembered the order of those lines, which could be read along or against them.
Wu Xie suddenly realized, feeling that the only remaining hope in his heart had been shattered.
Chen Wenjin looked at Wu Xie, grabbed his hand distressedly, and said, "Xiao Xie, I know that you have lived with him for so many years, but this truth is too cruel to you. It's just that I'll tell you one more thing, and you may not believe it even more. We finally entered the hall of the Genting Heavenly Palace, and it was your real third uncle, Wu Sanxing, who stunned us. ”
