Chapter 41: Blood Lotus
"My grandfather must have known that there was a weird totem behind my grandmother, so she hid it, because if she showed it to my grandfather, my grandfather would think about it. My uncle's disappearance is actually an allusion to my grandmother. He Ping'an said to me.
I involuntarily lit a cigarette, this seems to be the lotus flower carrying all the secrets, He Ping'an's words, in my heart undoubtedly shocked the huge waves, lotus lotus lotus, blood-colored lotus, in my mind kept spinning, lingering.
"How did you know that your grandmother also had a lotus flower behind her?" I asked. The woman died in service.
"This is what Qinghua told me later, when I was a child, Qinghua was the only child that my grandmother doted on, and she could sometimes take a bath with her grandmother. At first she didn't understand anything, but at last she told me about it, so to speak, this is our brothers' secret, and now I tell you. He Ping'an said.
"What the hell are you trying to say?" I asked.
"There is a lotus pattern like this behind Zhuo Anu, and there is also a lotus pattern behind my grandmother, which shows the relationship between the two people, and on the surface, Zhuo Anu came to my house back then, and let my grandfather get the dragon vein of the beetle snake tomb, which seems to be an incredible generous gift, and it becomes very confusing, that is, from Zhuo Anu's. To the gift, and then leave, in fact, it is all a calculation between my grandmother and Zhuo Anu, the two of them are not fellow villagers, they are very familiar with each other, but they pretend to just take in fellow villagers, she is secretly calculating something. I think my uncle left that picture to remind my grandfather and guard against my grandmother. He Ping'an said.
"Your inference is a little too subjective." I said bitterly.
"Don't deceive yourself, you know more than I do what two identical totems represent, do you know why tattoos are used as a symbol of hooligans? Far from it. Let's talk about modern times alone. The most obsessed with tattoos may be the Qinggang, they all have unified tattoos, such as the left arm of the green dragon, if there is a fight on the road, the left arm is pulled. At first glance, this is a status symbol. I've got that to say, I guess you know what that means by now, right? He Ping'an asked me.
"You mean, your grandmother He Xiaoyu and Zhuo Anu may belong to a mysterious organization? Similar to the organization of the Green Gang, the identity of this organization is a blood-colored lotus? I asked.
"Yes, that's obvious, and it's the most reasonable guess, isn't it?" He Ping'an looked at me and said.
After smoking a cigarette, I lit one again, He Ping'an at least convinced me now, if I was just a little suspicious when I saw the blood-colored lotus flower behind the second uncle, then it can basically be confirmed now that the appearance of this lotus flower is not accidental.
"It's a very difficult question to digest." I said. This is a fact, the relationship between Zhuo Anu and He Xiaoyu, in my grandfather's notes, the relationship between the two of them is actually not pleasing to each other, but this suddenly became an organizational person, that is to say, the facts once again proved that some of the things in my grandfather's notes have no credibility.
"Yes, so I never dared to say these words, if Zhuo Anu was alone, that person might really only love wealth and not power, understandable, but if they were an organization, what a terrible organization would it be? An organization that would make my grandfather? An organization that can get Zhang Xianzhong's treasure? What are they up to?! He Ping'an was a little excited.
"You don't dare to say that, but why do you dare to tell me?" I was a little puzzled.
"Because I feel like you're like me, you seem to know something, you don't seem to know anything, and you can't help but be caught in an inexplicable whirlpool." He Ping'an said.
"You?" I asked.
"Yes, my grandmother is bent on letting me get this head of the family, what does it mean that you should be named Abi, if I get the head of the family as my grandmother's own grandson, and my grandfather's body can't last a few days, then, the entire Li family is equivalent to being in the hands of the Scarlet Lotus Organization, and I'm just a marionette, so I think, instead of dealing with their old foxes, it's better to cooperate with you, at least, you can't calculate me." He said.
"What do I mean by that? Dare you mean, buddy isn't smart enough? I laughed and scolded.
"Yes, maybe, at least you're not the kind of person who is moody, I can tell from your jealousy, of course, I don't want me to look away." He said.
--Sometimes, other people's trust in you will give you an inexplicable emotion, maybe it is an attitude that the person who dies for his confidant, He Ping'an and I have not met a few times, but what he said to me makes me feel that this person should be a real person, or maybe I was moved by his words, the two of us are the same kind of people, people who are pulled by the nose. The old foxes can huddle, and so can we.
But I hesitated again and again, and still didn't tell him that my second uncle had a tattoo behind him, I didn't say it, it doesn't mean I don't want to, Zhuo Anu, He Xiaoyu, my second uncle, they also have a blood-colored tattoo behind them, according to He Ping'an's speculation, this tattoo represents an organization.
In other words, the three of them are people who belong to one organization.
It made me a little dizzy, a little hard to accept and digest. How could these three people get together?
At the same time, I wondered, why did my grandfather leave such a notebook that was almost entirely a lie? He deceived his descendants, why bother?
"You now suspect that your grandmother has a problem, and your uncle's children regard you as an enemy, I really can't understand what kind of attitude you have." I looked at He Ping'an and said. If he knows so much in secret, what is he busy with?
"Actually, I don't know, perhaps, I have the same Li family's blood as my uncle, and I have the same personality, just to get to the bottom of it, I don't know what I want to do, aren't you the same? You shouldn't be a person who can fight hard for treasure, and sometimes for people like us, the answer is more important than everything. He Ping'an said.
I nodded, I have to say, many of He Ping'an's words can be said to my heart, and I'm still running non-stop, isn't it also for a so-called answer?
"What are you going to do next?" I asked.
"You don't know why my grandmother found Huang Lao and your second uncle all at once." He Ping'an said to me at this time.
"I said, why do you like to talk only half of it!" I didn't know this question in the first place, and I couldn't figure it out. He whetted my appetite at once.
"She is trying to attract people's attention, or rather, she thinks that Huang Lao and your second uncle are the same people who threaten what she really wants to get, so she used a treasure of Zhang Xianzhong who doesn't know whether it's true or not, and at the same time lured these two threats to one place, and her real target is somewhere else." He Ping'an said.
"Where?" I said.
"A lost temple." He Ping'an said, while taking out a few similar copies from his personal bag and handing them to me, saying: "This is the information that Qinghua secretly got from my grandmother, this is my grandma's real destination, if I guess correctly, the truth should be here." ”
These are a few sheets of A4 open paper, and there is a picture on the paper, and the picture is depicted in a magnificent temple, this temple stands on the top of the mountain, and on the top of the mountain, the clouds are shrouded in mist, and just looking at this picture, it looks very much like a palace in the sky.
"Even if Zhang Xianzhong's treasure exists, it will definitely not attract my grandmother, including my uncle, he is a person who is equally indifferent to power and money. It is the most psychic Wong Tai Sin in the legend, and when it comes to yellow skin, it must be that Huangpizi Jing and Taoist priests, Taoist Taoists. Sichuan, Zhang Xianzhong, figure of the temple. ”
"I got all these things together, entered the library, looked for a lot of connections, looked up countless classics, and finally found a trace of clues."
"After Zhang Xianzhong became the emperor, in order to find a good bloodline for himself, he called himself a descendant of the gods, and the ancestor he recognized was Emperor Wenchang, Emperor Wenchang, and the legendary fairy Zhang Yazi, and Zhang Xianzhong once raised the power of the entire Great West Kingdom to build a temple for the so-called ancestor Zhang Yazi, and the temple name was 'Tiansheng Shrine'. At that time, a total of 10,000 people were served, and a unique book of wild history I found said that when Zhang Xianzhong built the Tiansheng Shrine, he was extremely particular about the use of workers, and it must be two genera, one for the snake and the other for the rat. After the cultivation was completed, all of them were killed, and the specific location of the Heavenly Saint Shrine became a mystery. ”
