Chapter 119: Coercion
When Ye Jiuqing said this, his eyes fell on me, and I quickly understood what he meant, and asked in amazement: "Me?!" ”
"Yes, that's you." Ye Jiuqing nodded slowly. "On Chinese New Year's Eve that year, in the wild, the general caught you who entered by mistake, and I didn't care at first, until I saw the necklace you dropped."
I can still remember Ye Jiuqing's surprise when he saw the necklace, he told us that when he was in the Vientiane Divine Palace, Ling Ran had reminded him that Gu Yuanshan had secretly taken Ling Xuan's necklace, and when they finally evacuated, they witnessed Gu Yuanshan's body in a different place, and in their hearts, Gu Yuanshan was already a dead man.
And I told Ye Jiuqing that night that the necklace was given by my father, and my father's name was Gu Wu, although Ye Jiuqing didn't hear the name he was familiar with, but he was also a person with the surname Gu, and most importantly, he also had the necklace that was lost in the Vientiane Divine Palace.
With Ye Jiuqing's acumen, he quickly linked me with Gu Wu and the previous events, if Gu Wu is Gu Yuanshan, how can a person who has died still be alive, which makes Ye Jiuqing think of Ling Xuan, who has survived for thousands of years, since Gu Yuanshan can come back from the dead, then Ling Xi is also possible.
Even if this hope is slim, for the sake of Ling Xi, Ye Jiuqing will not hesitate, so he took me back to the Sifang pawnshop.
Ye Jiuqing has been away from Bureau 117 for a long time, and it is impossible to find out the whereabouts and secrets of Bureau 117 with his resources, but Ye Jiuqing knows very well that Bureau 117 is an archaeological force, and they have been pursuing the secret of the Nine Dragon Boat of the Moon Palace, which may also be the secret of Ling Xuan's immortality for thousands of years.
That's why Ye Jiuqing will sharpen a sword for ten years, and do everything to polish me into a tomb exploration master, if I have a relationship with Gu Yuanshan, Ye Jiuqing hopes to use me to uncover the secret of the Nine Dragons Boat of the Moon Palace, in fact, in Ye Jiuqing's mind, my existence is an unsolvable mystery for him.
"I didn't want to take advantage of you, although at that time, I regarded you as the last straw to save Ling Xi, but in my heart, you are more of a lonely child, I have worked hard all my life, but ask myself Ye Jiuqing has not calculated you." Ye Jiuqing raised his head and looked at me, his eyes were frank and calm. "Remember the one I asked you to sign?"
I nodded.
"To put it simply, you can see it as a transaction, I leave everything I have to you, I just want to one day, I can exchange it from you for a way to save Ling Xi."
"The ancient tomb behind the mansion in the east of the city, the shopkeeper, the shopkeeper, you already know what's inside?" Gong Jue asked.
"I know, after leaving the 117th Bureau, I changed my name and changed my surname and ran around, in order to find all the clues related to the Nine Dragons Boat of the Moon Palace, until I found the ancient tomb, so I stayed in Chengdu."
"Uncle, since you know that there are clues in the ancient tomb, why haven't you gone in for so many years?" Ling Zhihan was puzzled.
"117 Bureau, you are worried that once the ancient tomb is dug up, it will attract the attention of 117 Bureau, you know too well that with the ability of 117 Bureau, you will easily cover everything up, you don't dare to rashly ruin the last hope." I say.
Ye Jiuqing nodded silently, he originally planned to open the ancient tomb at a suitable opportunity, until he met me, Ye Jiuqing quickly thought of a comprehensive plan to use me to open this ancient tomb, because I want to track down the truth about my father's killing, so I will spare no effort to explore the whereabouts of the Nine Dragon Boat of the Moon Palace, and my bizarre background will also involve the secret of the 117th Bureau.
It's just that the time is earlier than Ye Jiuqing expected, I didn't expect Gong Jue to dig up the ancient tomb first, and reunite with Gong Yu in Chengdu, the two of them haven't seen each other for decades, Gong Yu privately told Ye Jiuqing that after the transfer of the 117 Bureau, he has been studying what was brought out of the Vientiane Divine Palace, and has also made major discoveries, but as for the core secrets, Gong Yu has never touched it.
What shocked Ye Jiuqing even more was that Gong Yu told Ye Jiuqing that the person in charge of the 117 Bureau was still Gu Yuanshan, and Gong Yu was the first person to evacuate, so she didn't see the process of Gu Yuanshan's death, and Ye Jiuqing was even more convinced that the Gu Wu I mentioned was probably the same person as Gu Yuanshan.
However, there was an accident in the 117th Bureau, and the research of the mysterious institution was suddenly terminated, according to Gong Yu's recollections, it seemed that someone was trying to prevent the 117th Bureau from tracking down the Moon Palace Kowloon Fang, so that in the end, the 117th Bureau was taken over by another mysterious department, and most of the people involved in the research of the 117th Bureau were missing.
"Then how did my master leave the 117th round?" The palace lord asked.
"She didn't say it, I think your master should have something to hide and didn't tell me, but the last time I met her, I found that Gong Yu seemed to be the same as me, eager to unlock the secret of the Nine Dragons Boat in the Moon Palace, but she and I should have different purposes for pursuing." Ye Jiuqing said this, took a deep breath. "These, these are the things I haven't told you."
Ye Jiuqing's expression was very relaxed after speaking, it should be that these secrets were not calm in his heart, and he was relieved to say them all, but I suddenly secretly breathed a sigh of relief in my heart, although Ye Jiuqing concealed too many things from us, but his original intention was not the calculation I was worried about, it was just the obsession of a loving old man with his deceased wife.
"You shouldn't hide it from me, I've been in the Sifang pawnshop for more than ten years, and I've long regarded it as my home, as long as you tell me, I'll help you do it." I pressed my hand on Ye Jiuqing's shoulder.
"I don't say I don't want you to know too many secrets of the 117 Bureau, once you get involved, it's hard to get out, and the less you know, the safer it is." Ye Jiuqing replied apologetically. "It's just that I didn't expect to put the general's life on the line......"
The general and Ye Jiuqing have lived and died together for so many years, I can understand Ye Jiuqing's mood at the moment, but I don't know how to comfort him, just wanted to speak, and suddenly smelled a strange fragrance in the room, this fragrance was also smelled in the desert, and then ......
Before I could react, I heard a continuous plopping sound, and the people around me fell to the ground unconscious one after another, but I was safe and sound, and Du Yi was standing in the room.
I was shocked, no matter how I shook and shouted, the people on the ground did not react, I picked up the gun dropped by the field chicken on the ground, and angrily aimed at Du Yi, who had a relaxed face, and then glanced at the glass of water on the table that I had drunk.
There should be something in the water that Du Yi forced me to drink, which can make people faint instantly, Du Yi was still calm in front of the gun, but calmly walked to the gun.
"I have never been your enemy, let alone to get rid of you, why should I come myself."
"What the hell do you want to do?" I asked indignantly with my gun raised.
"Find out the whereabouts of the Nine Dragons Boat in the Moon Palace." Du Yi replied very simply.
"I've never liked to be coerced and threatened, so why should I help you."
"I don't think you understand, no one has ever tried to blackmail you from beginning to end, even if you don't know anything, but you should always figure out why your father Gu Yuanshan is still alive after dying twice, why you are wearing a necklace with a feathered dragon, and who killed your father, you want to unravel all this, and in the end you must find the Nine Dragon Boat of the Moon Palace." Du Yi smiled lightly and slowly pulled the muzzle of the gun away from his chest. "Whether it's Ye Jiuqing, me, or yourself, our purpose is the same, we don't have any conflict of interest before we find the Nine Dragons of the Moon Palace, the only thing Ye Jiuqing does right is for you to explore the secrets of the Nine Dragons of the Moon Palace, because no one is more suitable than you."
"Why me?"
"Bureau 117, haven't you ever wondered why this mysterious institution was named Bureau 117?"
"Why?" I'm a little dazed.
"The No. 1 leader of Bureau 117 is Gu Yuanshan, he is your father, and your birthday happens to be November 7th, you are such a smart person, haven't you seen it, what is the connection between this?"
"......" I was stunned and looked at Du Yi opposite. You, what do you mean by that? ”
"You're related to the 117th Bureau, but you don't know it yet." Du Yi's expression became serious.
"No way, when I was born, 117 rounds already existed, and it was just a coincidence with my birthday."
"How do you know November 7th is your birthday?" Du also asked a meaningful rhetorical question.
"My father told me ......"
I was stunned halfway through, about my birthday, who would care about the date, of course, my father told me, but I quickly understood what Du Yi meant, Gu Yuanshan is the person in charge of the 117 Bureau, and my birthday is what he told me, these two are too coincidental before.
"Forty years ago, Gu Yuanshan went to Kunlun Jinque, and at that time the 117th Bureau had not yet been established, but ......," Du Yi said with sharp eyes. But there were thirteen people who went to Kunlun Jinque forty years ago, and why did one of them look exactly like you......
"That's not me!" I replied in a nutshell.
"How do you know it's not you?" Du Yi asked casually.
Such a simple question, but I was suddenly asked by Du Yi and didn't know how to answer, I hesitated a little overwhelmed, at this time, Du Yi had an extra file in his hand, and he slowly pushed it in front of me: "Look, I'm not wrong, no one has ever coerced you to do these things, but you yourself need to figure it all out, I give you a gift, maybe it will help you a little." ”
"What the hell are you doing this?" I don't believe the person in front of me.
"I told you that I was never your enemy, but you have someone to watch out for in this room." Du Yi smiled meaningfully.
I subconsciously looked at Ye Jiuqing on the ground, I have been by his side for more than ten years, I know this person too well, when he is telling the truth and when he is telling a lie, I know it all in my heart, this time, although Ye Jiuqing confessed to us about the things he hidden, I can be sure that there are still some parts of Ye Jiuqing who have not fully told us.
As for what it is, presumably even Du Yi beside me doesn't know, Du Yi should be aware that I glanced at Ye Jiuqing intentionally or unintentionally, he smiled faintly and shook his head: "He's just a liar......"
"And who are you asking me to watch out for?"
Du Yi smiled very faintly, suddenly my head became dizzy, my whole body seemed to suddenly lose strength, and I fell to the ground involuntarily, I watched Du Yi's face gradually blur, and then my eyes went black, and the whole person seemed to fall into an endless abyss.
