Chapter 1220: The Last Line of Defense
It's the most heartwarming quote I've heard in so many days.
I immediately asked him, "What did you find out?" β
As I spoke, I habitually pulled a cigarette out of my pocket.
I forgot if Sun Chuansheng had a habit of smoking, so I didn't hand over the cigarette.
Sun Chuansheng watched me skillfully light up the cigarette butt, and couldn't help frowning: "Who did you learn this smoking habit from?" β
I smiled awkwardly: "I didn't learn from anyone, I will." β
"You, you have been lacking care since you were a child, looking at the way you look now, like an outlaw, as soon as I meet your eyes, my heart will tremble."
"I don't want to be in charge since I was a child, I can't help it, just this life."
"Yes." Sun Chuansheng sighed and said: "We found an ascetic monk who lived in Lop Nur in his early years, and I heard him say that at the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China, there was an old scholar who stayed in Lop Nur for a long time, about ten years before and after, and I didn't know where to study what. That person should be the blind man you said. β
When I heard the words "old pedant", my heart trembled.
I don't know if Sun Chuansheng was unintentional, or if Xu Blind at that time was really very in line with the image of such a pedant.
I asked him, "Is there still a murderous young man next to that old pedant?" β
Sun Chuansheng was also stunned: "How do you know?" When the old scholar stayed in Lop Nur until his tenth year, he was picked up by a murderous young man. β
"How can you be sure that old pedant is Xu Blind."
"The physical characteristics and your description of Xu Blind can fit well."
"What is he doing in Lop Nur?"
"I don't know exactly what he did, but I only know that he seems to be studying something there, and according to the dervishe's description, the place where the old scholar lived was now the Sun Tomb."
"He went to the bottom of the tomb of the sun?"
"Quite possibly."
At this time, I suddenly thought of a question that may not matter, if the dervishes met Xu Blind in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, then how old is this ascetic now?
Just thinking about it, he heard Sun Chuansheng say: "Since this old monk has never been to Lop Nur, but only heard his master mention the matter of the old pedant, he is not particularly clear about the situation back then. β
I nodded, then frowned again, "That's all?" β
Sun Chuansheng responded very dryly: "That's all." β
I was helpless: "No...... Third uncle, just for such a little thing, as for you to find me, it's all at this juncture, even if you miss me, you can't delay my time like this. β
"Nonsense, how can this be a waste of your time?" Sun Chuansheng casually responded to such a sentence, and then mentioned practicality: "I haven't seen the kid of the Shi family for many years, and I don't know what he looks like now?" β
It seems that my third uncle can also faintly feel that the decisive battle is approaching, and he, like me, has a little luck in his heart, thinking that there is still room for redemption.
In fact, he deliberately came to me just to let me tell him in person whether it could be saved in the end.
Only this time, I don't want to tell the truth.
I tried to make up a lot of clichΓ©s and lies in my head, but when the words came to my mouth, they became: "He has become a demon." β
Alas, it seems that lying is always an unattainable luxury for Yincha.
Sun Chuansheng leaned on the railing of the rooftop, exhaled a long breath of turbidity, spread his hands at me, and asked for a cigarette.
He only wanted a cigarette, but he didn't want a lighter, he just put a cigarette in his mouth, but he didn't light it.
I felt as if he had something to say, so I stood silently and waited for him to speak.
After a long time, he asked me, "What kind of person do you think Shi Yong is?" β
I didn't have to think about it and responded: "He, just like Zhuge Liang, wise and close to the demon, strategizing, and having no last resort, it's a pity that there is only Zhuge in this world, there is no Zhongda, and there is no Uncle Liu Huang who can make him do his best, and he does not have Zhuge 's kindness and bearing, his resentment is too heavy, his heart is too ruthless, his hands are too black, and his desires are too big." β
Sun Chuansheng's small half of his body leaned out of the railing: "He is indeed very smart, it is no exaggeration to say that Shi Yong's kid is the smartest person I have ever seen in my life." But no matter how smart he is, in my eyes, he is the little hairy boy who will hide in the toilet alone when something goes wrong, and this child will never grow up. Alas, if not, you say, don't smart people like you grow up? β
I hurriedly waved my hand: "Don't say this, you tell Liang Houzai about this, I'm not a smart person." β
"You're not happy to say you're smart?"
"Come on, in our industry, saying that people are smart is no different from scolding. Don't think I don't know, the people who do our business, who are too talented and intelligent, don't have any great achievements, but on the contrary, those who seem to be dull, but are especially willing to work hard, can go to the next level in cultivation. You still call me stupid, I'll take it as a good thing. β
Sun Chuansheng was immediately happy: "Are you so sensitive?" Doing what we do is focused and patient, except for Shi Yong's kind of demon, in fact, most people's intelligence is about the same. β
At this juncture, there is really no idle time for us to idle here, but Sun Chuansheng doesn't seem to have the intention of ending this topic at this time, so I plan to finish my cigarette before leaving.
I didn't speak, Sun Chuansheng said to himself: "In the past, as long as Shi Yong encountered something that he couldn't solve, or he was angry with others, and was scolded by his eldest brother, he would lock himself in the toilet and refuse to come out for a long time, and every time he locked himself up, he didn't dare to see the light, and he never turned on the light in the toilet at night. β
"It's the same as my reluctance to go to a crowded place and sleep in a room that is too large, and I can't change my old habits." I did it casually.
But after saying this, my head seemed to be poured through with cold water, and the whole person woke up in an instant.
That's right, my bad habits, even after so many years, my circumstances have changed so dramatically, even my personality and appearance have become very different from before, but they just refuse to change no matter what.
Because that's the last line of defense in my heart.
Practical is the same as me, and has similar psychological defects, I will not change, and he will definitely not change.
Sun Chuansheng probably saw that my expression was different, so he asked me, "What's the matter, what do you think?" β
I thought about it and said, "Third uncle, you say...... Where will the toilet be for practical hiding? β
Sun Chuansheng obviously didn't understand what I meant: "He lived in the house for a long time, and in those days, the toilets were in the corner of the house. β
I said, "That's not what it means." I'm asking, is there a place where he is particularly willing to go when he is messing around with you, especially when he encounters a big setback......"
Before I finished speaking, Practical understood what I meant: "Don't say it, it seems that there is really such a place, for a while, he always ran to Mall County when he had nothing to do, and asked him why he was getting old, and he said that he was greedy and wanted to eat hemp duck there." Later, I also thought about what happened at that time, when he went to the mall, maybe he went to connect with people from Buzhoushan. β
"Is it the mall county in Henan?"
"Yes, in Xinyang."
"Does Utility always go there when there is a setback?"
"When he ran to Xinyang, he was just in time for his pro-Mei Sweetheart and the Lu family to marry, and the trauma caused to him by that incident was quite large."
Hey, why didn't I talk to Sun Chuansheng about the practical past?
It's all fate!
I didn't have time to say goodbye to Sun Chuansheng, so I quickly pinched the cigarette butt and turned around and ran downstairs.
Sun Chuansheng saw that I was running in a hurry, and shouted in the back: "What are you doing here?" β
I replied without looking back: "Let's pack up our things, we have to leave tomorrow and the day after tomorrow at the latest." β
Actually, I'm not sure if Sun Chuansheng can hear me, because when I shouted this, I had already rushed out of the hotel with Tengyun steps.
I can almost conclude that there must be a secret lair that has been practically established near the Immortal Cave, and at this moment, he is most likely in that lair.
I should have thought of this a long time ago.
The feng shui pattern in the area around the Immortal Cave is very strange, and the giant maze there is an excellent protective X umbrella, and it is perfect to build a secret lair there.
Moreover, I had been to the Immortal Cave in the early years, and not only I had been there, but many old-timers in the industry knew about the existence of the cave.
It can be said that the fairy cave has long been exposed to X-rays in broad daylight, and many people think that practical will be hidden in a more hidden location, but with his cleverness, how can he not know that "the most dangerous place is the safest place".
It's a secret place that's easy to overlook.
There is a large maze large enough to provide concealment for the lair.
And that place is so close to the last line of defense in the bottom of the practical heart.
Practical certainly has enough reasons to choose it as its secret base.
I know that this is all just my own reasoning, and no one can prove that I am right.
But now I can't do that much and have to gamble again!
I'm afraid, if it's a little later, the secret nest near the fairy cave will also end up with the same fate as the Lop Nur crypt.
However, I haven't completely lost my mind, and while running towards the old alley, I took out my mobile phone and dialed Zhuang Youxue's phone.
As soon as the phone rang, I quickly asked, "Have you investigated the area around the fairy cave, and where might the practical nest be?" β
Zhuang Youxue's response was: "Do you still need to check that place, and besides, haven't you been there yourself?" If the practical nest was there, wouldn't you have discovered it earlier? β
As I expected!
