Chapter 346: The Council of Elders
It's incredible, Su Che was sent to the village like this, if it weren't for those people's negligence, I'm afraid I would have run to India to save him in a few days.
If no one had found Su Che's traces, none of us would have thought that he would be in the village.
"Can you tell us about the purpose of those people? I'm guessing you know something. "I changed the subject.
Su Che was stunned for a moment, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I didn't expect you to forget this matter." ”
How could I forget, this matter is simply my biggest doubt at present, I have lived in the village for more than ten years, and I have been a night watchman in the ancestral shrine for a few years, but I don't know that there is a bigger secret there.
Su Che saw that I was looking at him directly, so he had to smile bitterly and said: "Actually, I only found out about this matter last time, as far as I know, that Yun Lotian seems to be very busy in the east and west, but in fact, he is not a real black hand!" ”
Yes? Hearing this, I was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Who else could it be if it's not him?" ”
Su Che said I only found out by accident, Yun Wan mentioned an organization called the Senate Association, these people are the people behind the scenes, and Yun Lotian is just a bird.
I was shocked by the news, the Senate? What kind of organization is this?
But if you think about it carefully, Yun Lotian rarely went abroad in the past, why did he establish so many bases in Southeast Asia, and even set up a relationship with the Japanese, if it wasn't for the help of someone with more energy than him, it would be difficult for him to do this.
"Then why don't you tell everyone?" I looked at Su Che and asked.
He shook his head and smiled bitterly, saying that this matter is very important, if I say it now, what effect can it have except to increase the panic?
"Moreover, the Senate is very mysterious, and there are not many people in the world who know about their existence, I want to find someone who knows their details before telling you the news." Su Che continued.
If it had been in the past, maybe I would have listened to Su Che's idea, but now it's different, Master taught me to think about things from the overall situation, now this matter is so important, we have to discuss it with everyone, especially now that we have such a strong backing as Aunt Qing and the old man, how can such a powerful intelligence network not be used?
So I opened my mouth to persuade Su Che and said, "I think this matter needs to be discussed with everyone." ”
Then, I said my thoughts, and after listening to it, Su Che nodded and said helplessly: "Okay, what you said is also very reasonable, but I am worried that the existence of the Elders' Council is so mysterious, once they are found to be investigated, it will be difficult for them to disappear from now on." ”
I smiled and said that as long as you are ambitious, you must not be willing to be lonely, and those people will not hide for a long time.
Okay, I called Aunt Qing, and then told the details of the matter, she already knew about Su Che's return, and was about to come over, but after hearing me about it, she hesitated for a while, and said that I will go to you later, or tomorrow, the situation you said is very important, and I want to report it to the old man.
I nodded and said it would be better tomorrow, because it was already dark today and I would worry about her if it was too late.
The next morning, before the sun came out, Aunt Qing arrived, and of course I was notified in advance, so that I would not rush up to meet her in my sleep.
After meeting, Aunt Qing first asked Su Che about the news of the Elders' Council, and then frowned and said to us: "After I told the old man about this, he immediately asked people to investigate, but unfortunately, I have never heard of this name in the news reports in the past few years." ”
Su Che nodded, and said That's for sure, this Council of Elders is said to have only a few people, but they are all people with extraordinary strength, and they act very low-key, we may have heard the names of these people on weekdays, but we don't know that they are members of the Council of Elders.
"Aunt Qing, what should we do?" I looked at her and asked, not that I ran out of ideas, but that I felt that this was the time to really brainstorm.
Aunt Qing smiled bitterly and said that the old man has listed this matter as the target of key investigations, but you can rest assured that this matter will not be leaked out, so as not to startle the snake.
This sentence dispelled my doubts and said that it would be the best.
Aunt Qing looked at me and Su Che, and asked jokingly, "How is it, Xiao Biesheng is newly married, you two must be sweet in your hearts now, right?" ”
I blushed, and as soon as I was done, she came to make fun of us.
But I'm not a child now, although Aunt Qing's words have a hint of laughter, they are also happy for the two of us, I still understand this, so I smiled and said It's okay, I thought it would take a lot of effort to get back together with Su Che, but I didn't expect to get him back so unexpectedly easily.
Aunt Qing nodded, and said that you should be together in the future, and don't run around anymore.
"Yes, I've already thought about it, and I will definitely not be so reckless in the future." I said with a smile.
Because of the limited information, we had to put the matter of the Council of Elders aside for the time being, and Aunt Qing said that she still had something to do with Lin Yuanshan on this trip, so Su Che and I would also go with her.
"What's the matter? Aunt Qing. I asked as I walked with her.
As a result, Aunt Qing told me that the cave that Yun Lotian deliberately leaked to us last time has been blocked, and the military is conducting a search and investigation over there, and now that the latest discovery has been sent, she needs Lin Yuanshan's help to see the results.
I thought I'll find out in a moment anyway, so I didn't ask any more questions, and followed Aunt Qing to Lin Yuanshan's residence.
At this time, he and Lin Yue were waiting for us, and after meeting each other, they exchanged a few words, and Aunt Qing directly said the topic.
"Mr. Lin, the canyon where ginger tea and the others went before has now begun to be cleaned up, and we have found something that we need your help to see." Aunt Qing said and took out a stack of papers from her bag.
There was a thick stack of those photos, Lin Yuanshan took them and looked at them one by one, and after he finished reading them, he was picked up by Lin Yue next to him, and then distributed them to everyone, and when I saw them, I found that they were all taken with some strange shapes.
We didn't find any of these things when we entered the cave, and we don't know where the military people found them.
"What are these?" Lin Yue looked at it more and more confused, so he asked suspiciously.
Lin Yuanshan smiled and said that these things are the old background of my Cloud Gate, and many things were handed down many years ago, and they record the history of our Cloud Gate.
"Relics?" Lin Yue asked with his mouth wide open.
Lin Yuanshan shook his head and said that it was not a cultural relic, it was a inheritance and a personal belongings left by the masters of the Cloud Gate back then, and these things had no research value, only collection value.
As he was saying this, his hand suddenly stopped, looked at the photo a few times, looked up at me, and then handed the photo directly to me: "Look at this!" ”
I was a little strange, why do you have to let me see it? But when I took it, I was stunned!
The photo shows a jade cicada that is missing half of it! It's almost exactly the same as the one I have on my chest!
"How so?" I muttered.
Because of Su Che's incident before, my father once told me that the half of the jade cicada had been lost, but he would help me find it, because after that, the whole jade cicada could have hope of saving Su Che.
Later, because it was less than seven and a half months, I thought that since my father agreed, he should help me find it, but I didn't expect this thing to appear in Yun Letian's hands.
"Aunt Qing, where is this thing now?" I quickly showed her the picture and asked.
Aunt Qing saw that I was a little anxious, and said that the things should have been shipped out, but I don't know where to put them, but just ask.
I nodded, took out my half of it and showed it to her, and said, "This thing is very important to me, can you help me get it out?" ”
Aunt Qing hesitated for a moment, then nodded, and said This should be no problem, since there is no research value, and it is your ancestral thing, I think you can come back.
That's the best, but it's a pity that my dad wasn't there, otherwise he would be very happy to know about it, right?
Now I don't have time to think about how that half of the jade cicada could have escaped into Yun Letian's hands, because Lin Yuanshan is still looking at the remaining photos.
It wasn't until the last one that he raised his head to look at Aunt Qing and asked, "These things are not of much value, what is the purpose of showing them to me?" ”
Aunt Qing smiled and said that we found more than that, and some of them have also been shipped back, and now the above means, do you want to receive these things?
Lin Yuanshan was stunned, even we were stunned, these things are all Yunmen's assets, Yun Lotian originally planned to build the cave in the mountain into his new headquarters, but he didn't expect to be destroyed directly after we found out, so these things were left.
It stands to reason that these things should be handed over directly to the state, why would Aunt Qing think of handing them over to Lin Yuanshan?
"What does it mean to give me the Cloud Gate?" Lin Yuanshan asked suspiciously.
Aunt Qing nodded and said yes, now that the bad things Yun Lotian has done have been recorded, he is no longer qualified to be your door master, so we need a new door master to preside, after all, your power in the country is still very large.
But after Lin Yuanshan heard this, he shook his head and smiled bitterly, saying that although the idea is good, it's a pity that no one will listen to me, not to mention how many branches Yun Lotian controls, even if everyone thinks that he is no longer suitable to be the master of the door, but it is not okay not to follow the rules.
Rules, yes, such a big organization, who can say that he is the master of the door?
"Maybe I have a way to help you." Su Che suddenly said to Lin Yuanshan beside me.
Everyone's eyes all looked at him, and he asked Lin Yuanshan with a slight smile: "Do you remember the matter of the door master's seal?" ”
