Speaking of my parents, they both died when I was born, and my grandfather said there was a car accident on the way to town.

All they left me was this photograph and nothing else.

I walked to my grandfather's side, looking at the parents in the photo with mixed feelings, the father in the photo is wearing glasses, giving me the feeling of being handsome and learned, and the mother's shoulder-length short hair and delicate facial features can be regarded as a beauty, and the two of them stand together and look so affectionate.

In the heavens, they are willing to be winged birds, and on the earth they are willing to be even branches, they must be very happy at this moment, but what about me? I don't want to follow in the footsteps of Narcissus.

At the moment I was thinking how good it would be if they were still alive, and that they would be very happy and proud to see their children grow up, but it was just a fantasy because they left me forever eighteen years ago.

Eighteen years ago!

The grandfather of the island just now died eighteen years ago, and my parents also died eighteen years ago.

Suddenly, I had a strange and bold idea in my mind, could it be that my grandfather had been hiding the real cause of my parents' death, could it be that my parents' death was related to the grandfather of the island country, otherwise why would my grandfather and his old man be so angry.

And all of this stems from a gesture of grandpa at this moment, if he hadn't been staring at that picture at the moment, I would never have connected the two.

"Grandpa...... How did my parents die? I asked with a solemn expression.

Originally, my grandfather had been staring at the photo in a daze, but he was very panicked when I asked this, and he was even more stunned, "Xiao Nan, didn't I tell you, they were hit by a car back then...... Crash ......"

Grandpa's words were not finished, but the cloudy eyes he looked at me were already moist, as I guessed, grandpa he really lied to me, he deceived me for eighteen years, at first I hated him for hiding it from me, but when he told me what happened back then, I knew that grandpa was a white lie.

My grandfather said that a strange and strange thing happened at that time, the Yellow River, which had been flowing endlessly, suddenly stopped flowing overnight, and my parents were both Yellow River water clerks, and they were busy looking for the source to check the vision.

At that time, my mother was already pregnant with me for eight months, and my father was worried about her health and asked her to stay at home, but she insisted on going, and my father couldn't screw her and agreed, and my grandfather went with him.

When the source was found, it was discovered that the reason why the Yellow River suddenly stopped flowing was because the Yellow River was suddenly diverted.

The diversion of the Yellow River has also been recorded dozens of times in history, but each time it was caused by the flood season, but this time it coincided with the great drought, and it did not rain in January, so how could the Yellow River be diverted.

At this time, someone came to tell my father that something seemed to be exposed in the silt at the place where the Yellow River was broken, and asked him to go back and have a look.

When I went back, I found that something was really peeking out of the silt in the center of the riverbed, and I saw that it was shining golden in the sunlight.

The location of the golden light was in the center of the riverbed, and the newly dried riverbed was full of silt and yellow sand, and people would be stuck in it if they stood on it, and they would lose their lives if they didn't get it, so they couldn't get close at all.

The shore was a few tens of meters away from the center of the riverbed, and it was impossible to see clearly, but looking at the golden light, Grandpa Jinguang concluded that it should be gold.

Gold was found in the broken riverbed, of course, it belonged to the state, and immediately my father reported the matter, and soon a survey team came, and this survey team was also very fast, and my father reported it in the morning, and people came in the afternoon, and there was an island man in this survey team, named Nakagawa Yokoichi.

In just half a day, the scorching sun dried up and cracked the silt on the surface of the riverbed, and it was barely possible for people to walk on it carefully.

In addition, the grandfather and the father went down a total of four people, and the people were connected by a rope, in order to have the effect of echoing back and forth, in case one person fell in, the other people could use the rope to pull it out of the silt.

At a distance of only a few tens of meters, the four of them walked for nearly an hour, although they were all sweating, but no one stopped, because everyone's eyes were deeply attracted by the dazzling golden light.

Grandpa said that when he arrived at the center of the riverbed, he found that the golden object was indeed gold, and the part of the bare building outside was a little strange, and he couldn't see what it was, and when he cleaned it up, he found that it was a pure gold turtle the size of a child of four or five years old.

When Nakagawa Yokoko saw this golden turtle, he shouted excitedly, and shouted to the other people on the shore, asking them to come down together and move the golden turtle to the shore, but he was strongly blocked by his grandfather, saying that this golden turtle could not be moved no matter what, otherwise it would attract death.

But the people didn't believe it at all, and six or seven people went in a circle to carry the golden turtle, and the moment the golden turtle was lifted from the silt, a pitch-black chain was brought out, and the whole chain was covered with a pitch-black ring that was the thickness of an arm, and it was not gold if it was black, but I don't know what metal it was made of, but if you looked closely, each section of the chain seemed to be engraved with some strange symbols.

The pitch-black chains rang out as the golden turtle was torn out, and it shook with a piercing sound, sounding like a woman's miserable cry.

Suddenly, the whole riverbed was shaken, and the water slowly seeped out of the originally dry riverbed, and in an instant it was not above the knee-level position, and the grandfather yelled badly, while pulling his father to the shore and walking hard, while shouting to those surveyors.

Gold is important, but life is more important, immediately a few people gave up, because the turtle weighed a thousand catties, plus a few people suddenly let go, the remaining few manpower did not re-fall the turtle directly, a person could not dodge on the spot was crushed to death by the turtle, the blink of an eye that the person and the turtle were drowned by the muddy river.

After going ashore, I looked back and saw that the area where the stream had broken off was miraculously filled with water again, and the chained turtle returned to the bottom of the river again.

After going ashore, the Nakagawa Jiro was very unwilling, and decided to fish the golden turtle out of the water, and the next day he hired a few fishing boats to go to fish, and many people in the village went to help for free, and his father also followed, and he didn't stop his grandfather's dissuasion.

Originally, my grandfather also wanted to follow, but I couldn't leave my mother alone, so I stayed, and helped my father to stand by the Yellow River and watch from afar.

Grandpa said that he was standing on the shore and saw the boats gathered together, and it didn't take long for the turtle to be fished out of the water, and the black chain was brought out.

The people carried the golden turtle to one of the ships, and then they saw Nakagawa Yoko, holding an axe in his hand, and slashed down at the chain that bound the golden turtle, but before the axe could fall, the chain broke by itself.

As soon as the chain was broken, the river immediately rose violently, and the boats shook even more violently on the river, and a layer of fog appeared out of thin air.

The fog lasted for more than ten minutes, and when the fog cleared, the river was calm again, but the boats were gone.

Seeing this scene, grandpa was anxious, and rushed to the center with his corpse boat, he wanted to save his father, but who expected that grandpa fished for a long time and was stunned that he didn't even see his father's corpse, not only his father's, but also other people's corpses.

My father died like this, there was not even a corpse, my mother had a sudden fetal gas that led to premature birth, I was born smoothly, but the next day my mother threw herself into the river and died, which is where my father disappeared, and then my grandfather also went to salvage my mother's body, and still found nothing.

When I heard this, I couldn't cry anymore, and I cried bitterly when I hugged my grandfather, who kept reaching out and stroking my head to comfort me.

I don't know how long I cried, I slowly raised my head and wiped the tears on my face, asked where my grandfather's parents were drowning, and said that I was willing to go to salvage it myself.

Hearing me say this, my grandfather's face turned extremely ugly again, and his head shook like a rattle.

"Xiao Nan, you can't go there......"
