Chapter Eighty-Seven: Exploration
Winter 1979
"Director ,..."
Before the long-haired young man could say anything, the short-haired young man standing in front of him waved his hand.
"I already know."
The long-haired young man was stunned for a moment, and then said.
"It seems that Hu Haizong has already told you the general situation.
Among those people, there is a folk master who turned her into a talisman with a talisman, and ordinary people can't turn a yin person into a bad person, so that woman should not have melted the yin stone, she is a tomb tiger. ā
"Oh? What kind of character is the character used by this person? ā
"I've never seen this talisman, but it's so powerful that it turned the woman straight to ashes."
The short-haired boy narrowed his eyes.
The long-haired youth continued to ask.
"Director, what will be the child born to the tomb tiger?"
"I don't know what it will be, the woman conceived first, and then became a tomb tiger.
It stands to reason that the stillborn baby in her womb is a tomb tiger, but it looks like an ordinary baby.
Even if there is a missing Yin Stone in the Iron Cave and melts into the corpse, it is impossible to live in this way. ā
After the short-haired boy finished speaking, he suddenly seemed to think of something, his eyebrows shrank, and then he stabilized his mind and continued.
"Let Hu Haizong adopt this child first, have you searched carefully in the Iron Cave?"
"I searched, there was nothing, when the three of us master and apprentice just entered the iron cave, I don't know how many gloomy stones there are on the stone pillar.
After the master was martyred, the soldier melted one when he was wounded, and when he attacked me, he used one for me, and the rest of those... ā
"Are you worried that your junior brother has ever gone back?"
"It's possible with his character."
"Jun Ji, when your master and apprentice were in that cave, was there anything else besides the Yin Stone?"
The long-haired young man seemed to be trying to remember, but it was more than 400 years ago, and he blinked slightly.
"At the top of that pillar, there seems to be an irregular fragment, and I'm not sure if that's something special.
After the big array killed the big stiff, the cave was already in a mess, so there was no way to find out where these things fell, maybe they had been broken in the big array, or maybe Shijia had returned. ā
"Shards?"
The short-haired boy didn't say anything more, and some pictures flashed in his mind, and there seemed to be many secrets hidden in his eyes that were as deep as a pool of water.
Beihan No. 3 Middle School
Recently, the temperature has started to change abnormally, and in the spring of March, the climate in the north should not be so warm, and the smell in the air is soft, as if it is early summer.
Many of the peach trees around the school have budded, and they are sure to bloom like a sea in a few days.
Maybe the weather was too fine, the school informed the students of each class that about a week later, a spring camping exercise would be held, not all students participated, and each class had to choose a candidate, and this camping exercise was not the same as before.
I used to come back in a day round-trip, and I was in a hurry and very tired.
This time, the teacher said that the whole journey was 25 kilometers and four hours on foot, and after arriving at the destination, he set up a tent for one night, and then returned the next day.
Most of the students have participated in similar camping exercises before, and the hike is not less worn out, this time I heard that it is a 25-kilometer journey, although it will be stationed for one night, but there will still be some hesitation, and some people are secretly happy in their seats, because they do not need all the students to participate.
Yuan Huaxing was a little excited, although she was tired from camping, it was a good opportunity for her who didn't have much time to get in touch with nature, especially setting up a tent in a camp, she was very interested.
But this happy mood, when she saw the empty seat in Xu Junfang's room, pulled her back to reality.
Xu Junfang probably went to Jiangsu again, but fortunately, he was able to find key materials in this matter, so Chen Xiao was also hopeful.
Yuan Huaxing couldn't help but sigh, if you want to say that the fate of Chen Xiao and Xu Junfang is bizarre, think about it from another angle, how can you not, and your own blood has become the key to saving your life.
At this time, the bell rang for the end of the last class of the morning.
Yuan Huaxing packed up and planned to go to the small restaurant opposite the school for lunch.
As soon as she walked out of the school gate, she saw a car parked on the side of the road, which she knew and belonged to Su Yi.
Yuan Huaxing walked closer, looked into the window of the car, and found that there was no one in the car.
She had an intuition, so she looked towards the main entrance of the garden of the old building, and Su Yi was really sitting on the side of the road.
"What are you doing? Coming to the case again? Yuanhua Xingbian said, glanced at Su Yi, and then looked at the old building, she felt that Su Yi was here to find Xu Tie.
Su Yi's sunlit eyes narrowed slightly.
"Iā" he was a little speechless.
"I know you're here to find Sister Xu Tielai, why isn't she there?"
Yuan Huaxing suddenly thought that Xu Junfang went to Jiangsu, would Xu Tielai's sister go with him?
Su Yi couldn't be sure that Shen Qian was Xu Tielai, but he wanted to ask about this matter too much.
"I knocked on the door, no one came out inside, I want to wait, you are all out of school, why didn't Xu Junfang come back?"
Yuan Huaxing took out the key and opened the door from the garden to the street.
"Maybe Sister Xu Tielai is here, Xu Junfang may have gone to another place and didn't come to class."
Su Yi was stunned when he saw the door open.
"You still have the key to this building? It seems that Xu Junfang has a good relationship with you. ā
Yuan Huaxing smiled slightly, "You wait for me, I'll go in and help you take a look." ā
Su Yi showed a faint look of gratitude on his face.
Yuan Huaxing entered the hall on the first floor, and shouted upstairs, but no one responded, she was a little unwilling, and went up to the second floor again, Xu Junfang was really not there, and the door was locked.
It seems that they went to Jiangsu together, and Yuan Huaxing was about to turn back, but at the staircase on the second floor, a voice suddenly came from the first floor.
"Do you know him, or does he know you?"
The cold tone mixed in the voice made Yuan Huaxing stunned, because the voice that came from this was Xu Junfang's, but it was not at all consistent with the usual gentle Xu Junfang.
"Who?"
Yuan Huaxing walked down from the upper floor, and she saw that Xu Tielai's face was ugly, and Xu Junfang was still sitting in a wheelchair.
"Lao Xu, you are all here, I thought you went to Jiangsu."
"Huh? Huaxing, why are you here? ā
"I'm here to find Sister Xu Tielai, you can stand up, why are you still in a wheelchair." Yuan Huaxing saw Xu Tielai with a haggard look.
Xu Junfang smiled slightly, "I'm used to it, I always forget that I can stand up." As he spoke, he glanced at Xu Tielai.
"Huaxing is looking for you, then you talk, I'll go back to the room first."
Xu Junfang got up from the wheelchair and stepped upstairs.
"What are you looking for from me?" No matter whether Xu Tielai's face is good or not, he always feels cold.
"Sister, have you lived in the Quanmin community before?"
Yuan Huaxing's words made Xu Tielai's face even more pale, and her lips even trembled a little, but she raised her eyes to look at the top of the corridor and frowned.
"What are you talking about, I don't understand, nothing else, I'm leaving." Xu Tielai turned around and was about to go upstairs.
"Sister, you look like a person."
Xu Tielai's figure stagnated slightly, and his voice was full of weakness. "Let's go, don't talk about it."
Yuan Huaxing was a little confused, and thought, "What's the matter, did I ask something wrong?" ā
Yuan Huaxing returned to the garden gate.
"Why hasn't it been so long, she's not here?" Su Yi asked.
"Yes, it's just..., I can't say, Sister Xu Tielai is not in a very good mood today.
I also asked for you, I'm going to disappoint you, she doesn't even know about the Quanmin community, so it's really just a look. ā
Su Yi didn't look at her eyes and smiled slightly, but there was bitterness in them.
This kind of bleak smile made Yuan Huaxing feel sad unconsciously, she didn't know how to comfort her, let alone what happened to Su Yi, but she could feel that there must be some sad past in it.
Quanmin Community
In the afternoon, Yuanyou received a call from Luo Baifan, although he was already mentally prepared, but after being confirmed, he was still taken aback.
Luo Baifan's identification department did photo comparison processing, and the faces of the people on the two photos were 99% similar, that is to say, the people in the two photos are the same person, and it is certain that Xu Tielai is Shen Li.
When this result comes out, it seems that the mystery will be solved, but she has been missing for so many years, incognito, becoming Xu Tielai, and becoming Xu Junfang's cousin, what is she trying to hide?
Whether she was being used or not, where was the stone plate, too many questions appeared in Yuanyou's mind.
Xu Tielai is the key, so he decided to go to her in person to solve the mystery.
Beihan No. 3 Middle School
Yuan Huaxing found out at noon that Xu Junfang had not yet gone to Jiangsu, and he was actually a little anxious.
She knows the truth of wanting to be quick but not reaching, but she can't help but want this matter to develop faster.
That day, Xu Junfang told her about Chen Xiao, but she couldn't accept it for a while, so she missed a lot of details and things she wanted to ask.
It just so happened that Xu Junfang didn't go to other places, so she wanted to ask clearly.
After five o'clock in the afternoon, she came to the old building and knocked on the door of Xu Jun's room.
"Old Xu, are you there?"
"Here, come in!"
Yuan Huaxing pushed the door in, and Xu Junfang was sitting in front of the desk, as if he had just finished explaining something to Xu Tielai.
"My sister is there too."
Yuan Huaxing found that for some reason, Xu Tielai was still pale, just like he was sick.
"You go out and wait for me at the door." Xu Junfang said to Xu Tie.
Xu Tielai seemed to realize something, and nodded slightly.
The door was closed, and only him and Yuan Huaxing were left in the room.
Xu Junfang's gaze today was a little different from usual, and while he spoke, he looked Yuan Huaxing up and down, as if he was re-examining a rare item from another angle.
"You're here now, aren't you afraid that Chen Xiao will be angry?"
Yuan Huaxing was a little unaccustomed to Xu Junfang talking like this, and his gaze suddenly made her feel a little strange.
"Lao Xu, why are you weird today?"
Yuan Huaxing said and glanced out the window casually, and a figure shook at the garden door, but she recognized it.
"Isn't that father?" Yuan Huaxing's mind was instantly confused, and he scratched his eyebrows.
"Father knows this? Did you really perceive something? She thought to herself, unconsciously moving away from the window.
Xu Junfang yawned heavily, with tears in his eyes, his eyes glazed over, and he looked a little tired.
"Isn't it weird? I've been really tired lately, and Tie Lai and I haven't been able to close our eyes for several days in order to rummage through information. ā
Yuan Huaxing put away his doubts about his father and looked at Xu Junfang's sleepy appearance.
"It's okay not to sleep, it's going to turn into panda eyes."
Xu Junfang smiled.
"Huaxing, you came to me to ask me something, do you believe what I said that day now?"
Xu Junfang can always see through her, Yuan Huaxing nodded slightly.
"I was in such a trance that day, and I didn't understand something."
"Whether you understand it or not, since you want to know, you must be prepared and planned to help me and Chen Xiao, right?"
"I will always help you, and I must let you get the antidote." Yuan Huaxing's eyes were unusually determined.
Xu Junfang showed the sunny smile of the past again.
"Just ask."
"The medicine you said may not be able to solve Chen Xiao's curse, so what are the chances of success?"
Xu Junfang took a deep breath and said with his spirits up.
"I don't know how Chen Xiao's fate was caused, maybe it is similar to my family, but we all have something in common, and in the end our fate is not very good, so this kind of person is called "Yin Man", which means ill-fated. ā
