Something to do with clocks?
What does it have to do with time?
I frowned and took the photo handed over by Bai Xiaoxue.
It is said to be a clock, but it is actually an ancient pocket watch, the style of the Republic of China, with a copper yellow texture, no numbers on it, only a circle of black dots marking the time, minute hand, second hand, hour hand, which looks a little damaged.
"Is there a dead word behind this pocket watch?" I asked suddenly.
"Dead?"
Bai Xiaoxue was stunned, "I don't know." β
It seems that she doesn't know.
It's not clear whether it's the pocket watch or not, after all, we just happened to hear the story of the hero of the Republic of China.
I can't help but feel a little accidental.
If there is really a connection, it may not be an accident, after all, it is all in our province.
"What do you mean?" Bai Xiaoxue seemed to react a little.
I sat her down and told her about the strange spectacle affair.
"Show me the glasses." Bai Xiaoxue said.
I handed her the things.
She took it and looked at it, then shook her head again, saying she didn't quite understand.
"Let's take a look at this again."
Bai Xiaoxue took out a second photo, on which was a bunch of group portraits of people, all of them were old people, walking in the woods, a little hazy, not real, "This is taken by the missing Yin Man, and when we arrive, there will be a camera left on the ground, you can take a look." β
I took the photo, looked at it, and suddenly my face sank.
A group of old people, one of them, in the farthest corner, looks like my grandfather, Cheng Xun.
How come??
Does it just look alike?
"We are also very curious about this group of elderly people photographed, and we have conducted a special investigation, and we found a very terrifying thing."
Bai Xiaoxue said that they investigated the portraits above and found that the people on it, after confirmation by their families, found that they were all some deceased heroes of the rivers and lakes, the older generation of grandmasters of the Republic of China...... And, when we investigated carefully, we all found a strange thing, the older generation of people, all died very early.
I was stunned, yes!
Now, that is, our fathers, Mr. Meng, Liang Tingzhi, Cheng Qi, Ye Wenjie, these people in their fifties are haunted, and they are all in their prime.
And the grandparents of the older generation have almost never seen it.
Bai Xiaoxue said: "Most of the older generation died early, in fact, it is very normal, after all, the people of that era were basically very seriously injured, and after the peak age of sixty or seventy years old, they would dig up the Tai Sui meat and leave it to the next generation, and the descendants who have just reached the early thirties will inherit it, maintain their peak state, and become the head of the next generation to take care of the industry...... And they themselves, having lost their Tai Sui flesh, will also age completely. β
I nodded.
When he was in his teens, he came out to work, and when he was thirty years old, he inherited the family business, not just talking.
The handover of their inheritance of the family business is naturally an elixir!
The old people of that generation were seriously injured, and as soon as they dug out the Tai Sui organs in their bodies, they didn't live long, and it was natural that they would even die directly, but now that they look at it, it is a bit too coincidental......
"Could it be that there is a black hand, secretly working to kill these old people?" I had a creepy thought, "But these are the older generation who turned the tide and bled blood and sweat back then, who would be so cruel to them?" β
If that's the case, it's not easy.
All of a sudden, I thoughtβ
Over the years, the old people of the older generation of each family have died mysteriously.
Over the years, Cheng Qi has also seized the family heirloom of various families......
Will there be a connection between the two?
After all, they are all aimed at the major Yin Families.
"It's okay if there's no connection, but if there's a connection, it's scary." Bai Xiaoxue whispered.
I was silent for a moment.
I remembered the calm, even cold-blooded, domineering man.
I always knew he was cold-blooded.
It's just a matter of seizing the yin weapons of each family, if these are really what he did, secretly doing it, and killing the older generation of each family, the old people who are bleeding and sweating, then he is a heinous cold-blooded demon, which is already outrageous!
I hope not.
Immediately afterward, I was stunned.
"Pocket Watch ......"
All of a sudden, I ran up to the attic.
I rummaged through the cabinets under the bed, and after half a minute, I found a black box to open and found a bronze pocket watch from a pile of old objects inside.
The style is exactly the same!
Before, I hadn't reacted to it, and besides, my grandfather was also from that era, and it was normal to have some old objects and pocket watches from that era......
I was stunned for a long time before I took the pocket watch downstairs.
And the people were stunned.
"It means that the old man Cheng Xun, in his later years, was also killed? Gave him a pocket watch countdown? Miao Qianqian was a little surprised, "It's not good, there is really a person who secretly attacked these old people and specifically attacked their ideas, after all, ...... The temptation is quite big, and he has a secret wound, and his strength has regressed greatly. β
I couldn't say a word.
My grandfather Cheng Xun, there is also a pocket watch in the relics?
I didn't know it at the time, it means too many things now.
"Besides-Old Man Cheng Xun, even if the secret injury is very serious, and there is no Tai Sui meat, he will not die in his seventies, right?" Miao Qianqian raised another doubt, "I guess, it may be that Chu Xinhe did it!" β
I didn't say anything, and suddenly whispered: It's not good, it's my problem, after all, you know it......
Miao Qianqian glared at me again, "Damn, why do you think about your cheap dad as soon as something happens?" Isn't it a matter of checking Mo Chong and checking the pocket watch in front of you? The first target, isn't it Chu Xinhe, the hero of the rivers and lakes who plays with pocket watches, these eight poles can't be beaten! β
I was stunned, knowing that she was comforting me.
However, I did have the first reaction, I thought of Cheng Qi, I have experienced too many things, and I instinctively reacted......
Bai Xiaoxue listened, smiled, changed the topic and said: Maybe, it really has something to do with that hero of the Republic of China, as soon as you said it, I remembered that I heard the master talk about this matter, in the era of the Republic of China, there was an elusive hero of the rivers and lakes, who specialized in flying eaves and walking walls, robbing the rich and helping the poor, and throwing a clock......
"Hey! Isn't that Kidd the Thief? Miao Qianqian's eyes widened.
"That's different."
Bai Xiaoxue shook her head and smiled: That one, but the one who stole other people's things, this one is stealing time.
"Did you really steal time?" I took a sip of tea and looked at the door with some emotion, the traffic on the street.
"I don't know, that's what our fathers talked about after dinner, and for them, it's also a strange talk." Bai Xiaoxue shook her head and suddenly said, "By the way, what is your impression of the ancient rivers and lakes?" β
"Personal bravery, sword to the end of the world! It was an era of chivalrous people everywhere and three indiscriminate people all over the ground. Miao Qianqian summed it up casually, but it was very incisive.
Bai Xiaoxue said: "It's indeed what you think, but the ancient rivers and lakes, the traffic is really inconvenient, except for some wandering rangers, generally speaking, the rivers and lakes are the competition of seven or eight cities, such ancient rivers and lakes, it is difficult to distinguish the real number one in the world." β
That's true.
I nodded, for example, before Sect Master Qi and Long Chen, it was the Wuxing Jianghu in Guangzhou.
The rivers and lakes of each place are divided.
"When I arrived in the Republic of China, it was different, the national disaster was at the head, all kinds of heroes came out, martial arts, yin xing, the second heyday, it was one of the most peak periods throughout the ages, it was convenient transportation, boats and cars, extremely convenient, all kinds of rivers and lakes, and the same goal, Kuang Fu Sheji, so, a variety of genres were formed, all kinds of lines gathered, traveled everywhere, and communicated all over the country at the same time."
Bai Xiaoxue said that in that era, there were a lot of strange things, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, there were many strange stories about the rivers and lakes, and they could also distinguish the real first.
The generation of the old man Cheng Xun may not be the strongest in that era, but just because of his high prestige, he led the Yin people.
I nodded, "That Republic of China hero Chu Xinhe is one of them." β
"Yes." Bai Xiaoxue said: "I heard that when the old man Cheng Xun was young, he secretly had a discussion with others, and then lost, it is said that the one who lost to the watchmaker, Chu Xinhe...... Some people say that he is the first person and the first hero of that era. β
