Who is the old man? Zhiqing has always been entangled...... He looked for clues in the curvy folds of the other party's face...... The old man also sensed that he was watching. The old man was slow, and after a few words, Zhiqing felt that he was not simple-his demeanor was wooden, but he was sophisticated, and the city government was very deep but pretended to be honest and ignorant.

Jiang Rong and He Pengfei are not polite at all, not restrained, not rigid, and not pretentious. It's like going back to your own home, and it's very harmonious to merge with all that you see in front of you. In the eyes of the two of them, these trees, rocks, branches and leaves, all kinds of elements derived from nature, are natural without too many traces of man-made.

But in Zhiqing's opinion, what does all this seem to be concealing? In other words, it is purposeful to build the same building as Menling Village, wanting to retain a certain kind of memory.

The old man was the only one who could answer this question, but unfortunately he didn't dare to look at Zhiqing, moving his clumsy steps tremblingly, deliberately keeping his distance from him.

Although the old man tried his best to avoid the stranger's inquiring gaze. No matter how he tried to hide it, there was still a trace of familiarity, and this familiar trace evoked Zhiqing's long-lost memory.

An honest man who claims that his family is very poor and needs to earn money to support his family. Survey teams generally only recruit temporary workers, the kind of temporary workers that are not fixed. Because the ore is the hard work of the team members to find, it is the property of the state. But there are some bad groups that are always thinking about the rare ores they find.

Therefore, when recruiting temporary workers, they are particularly cautious. The biggest shortcoming of human beings is that they are soft-hearted and often fall into inexplicable emotions and find it difficult to extricate themselves. For a while, instead of hiring temporary workers as they used to, they made an exception and left the seemingly honest man behind.

The man said that there were five or six people in the family, and there were a lot of children, who were screaming like wolf cubs to eat. My wife's health is okay, there is no problem with doing rough work, and the family depends on her to take care of it. He took the time to work as a porter to make money and replace the family.

Survey team, Xu Guofeng, as the leader of the survey team. Zhiqing's (father-in-law) is known for his kindness. The man's surname is Lai, he works well, and he is honest in his words and deeds, so he agreed to the man's request without hesitation.

But later, the honest man secretly took away the rare ore, and the man disappeared with him. Xu Guofeng told Zhiqing the details, and took this as a warning for him to pay attention to in the future.

Although there are lessons from the past, as the saying goes; It was a disaster that could not be avoided, but Zhiqing still experienced an unpredictable life and death catastrophe. The past is unbearable, he doesn't want to recall that bloody incident, and he has a headache when he thinks about it.

Because it was related to the historical past of Ru Gan, and he only remembered some vague accounts, he tentatively said: "It's you ......" The sharp gaze stared at the old man, and he observed with a static brake.

When the old man said the word 'It's you', he trembled as if he was frightened. Nervously waved his hand and said, "I don't know you." ”

"Lai Quanzhong......" Zhiqing shouted further.

The old man, who was faltering, trembled again, stopped, and slowly turned to look at Zhiqing. "Who is Lai Quanzhong?" Although he tried his best to deny it, there was a moment of panic in his eyes, and he did not escape the sharp capture of the other party.

After most of the night's running and tiring, Jiang Rong and He Pengfei were already hungry. I finally saw a living person who could talk and communicate, so I wanted to find some food to fill my stomach. I was in no mood to think about anything else, and now that I saw Zhiqing as if he was interrogating a prisoner, forcing this old man, the two of them were not happy.

"Uncle Chen, don't mind, stop for a while! Let's hurry up and fill our stomachs now, it's a big deal. Aren't you hungry? Why is there such an old man forced by the spirit? ”

Jiang Rong was too naïve and naïve, how could she understand Zhiqing's thoughts? This girl! Alas! He sighed, looked at the old man's lucky look, and felt angry in his heart.

He Pengfei on the side gave Jiang Rong a thumbs up and said, "You have a kind, I don't dare." He meant that she had the audacity to question her adoptive father, which was really commendable.

The old man said that the village had been like this for a long time, and that he had been waiting for someone to come to the village for many years.

Zhiqing knocked on the side and mentioned the topic of white buildings.

The old man said; "The white building seems to have existed a long time ago, as if it was engaged in some secret experiment."

"Have you been?"

The old man shook his head and pouted, "No, not once." ”

"Hey! Hurry up. Jiang Rong and He Pengfei, who were walking in front, turned back impatiently to urge Zhiqing and the old man.

Zhiqing stared at the old man suspiciously, ignoring the two ignorant children.

I don't know what's going on, but the more I look at it, the more doubts in my heart deepen. The old man was full of suspicions, especially on the honest face of the old man, although his facial features were rubbed in the folds. There seemed to be a lot of secrets hidden in his tiny eyes.

Time flies, and when the old man was young, he may have been an honest man. Pure in heart and spotlessly clean. However, in the face of interests and conscience, interests are biased over conscience. He chose to sell his conscience and get immeasurable benefits. He is undoubtedly Lai Quanzhong, anyway, he has been honed by this dirty society bit by bit into the scheming of the city government today, and it is not something that can only be done overnight.

The ore is very valuable, and he left his hometown, took refuge here, and used the money from the resale of state property to build this Menling village. In order to fill his empty loss and longing, knowing that going out is death, he simply stays here and dies alone.

Zhiqing was very satisfied with his logical thinking, and was able to guess such a perfect fragment. The old man was still hunched over, step by step, and walked forward very calmly.

"Where's your family?" Zhiqing asked unexpectedly.

The old man was slightly shocked at first, then pretended not to hear, and continued on his way.

"Old man, you haven't told me your name yet, otherwise what will we call you in the future?" Zhiqing deliberately stopped and waited for the old man to approach before speaking.

The old man stood sluggishly in front of him, his head kept down. It's like the cervical spine can't stand upright. With his current age, he should be a few years younger than his father-in-law.

The hoarse voice snorted and snorted for a long time before he said: "People are old, useless, and don't remember what their names are." You can call it whatever you like. ”

Scare! Could it be that he is also a victim? What kind of persecution is it subjected to? Otherwise, why can't you remember your name? Zhiqing didn't say a word, and continued to walk forward, but his heart kept questioning.

Stop and go and come to a three-room house. Jiang Rong and He Pengfei stagnated. The two of them looked at the room, and their faces became very ugly.

Zhiqing didn't understand what the two of them were shouting about being hungry before, and now they became so quiet.
