Chapter 229: The taboo is as deep as a deep
Qian Tangjiang ??? Isn't Qian Tangjiang Duoduo's grandfather? Why did you get involved with him again? It seems that everything is not as simple as it seems! What are the hidden secrets among the older generation? Things were already confusing enough, and now there's a new puzzle. I was a little overwhelmed and didn't know where to start to figure out the whole thing.
If the old ghost is not mistaken, it is very likely that so many grandfathers participated in that treasure protection operation many years ago. Are the older generations friends, rivals, or partners? For a while, there was really no way to know. Faintly, I have a bad feeling, but based on what I know, I can only have a bold guess: if there is any intersection between them, then the encounter between us juniors is not so simple.
In my judgment, many years ago, there must have been a relationship between the ancestors, and there must have been some kind of special relationship. Even if not so close, at least there have been more than one collaboration. The reason why they are not said to be opponents or enemies is because if they were enemies, they would not coexist, let alone appear in the same place at the same time many times.
But for some reason, they agreed not to talk about the past. It is their silence that makes those of us who are juniors have no way of knowing. Perhaps, there is some ulterior secret between them. And this secret is the biggest mystery that haunts my heart, and it is also the main reason for many of our accidents.
If we don't solve this mystery, we may never escape this curse and doom. So I asked the old ghost, "Are you sure you're not mistaken?" ”
When the old ghost saw that I doubted him, he said, "Then come!" ”
With that, he handed me the magnifying glass and flashlight in his hand. I didn't shirk it, so I quickly took it over and looked at it carefully. Sure enough, it was the same as the old ghost said. It does have Grandpa Duoduo's name written on it! As a result, I became more convinced of the doubts in my mind and determined to find out the secret.
The old ghost asked me, "Who is Qian Tangjiang mentioned above?" How do I vaguely feel that this person has something to do with us? ”
Seeing that the old ghost was suspicious, I said directly to the old ghost: "You don't have to think about it, that's right, it's Duoduo's grandfather!" ”
"I said. Why is it so familiar? The old ghost said, "It turned out to be the grandfather of the money shopkeeper!" Then needless to say, wouldn't it be okay to just find this money shopkeeper directly? ”
After the old ghost finished speaking, he looked at Qian Cheng, who had been silent next to him. Qian Cheng didn't look at us with a positive gaze, just lowered his head and was thinking about something. After a while, he said to us, "Actually, I don't know much about grandpa. However, when I was younger, I seemed to have heard my father mention it. But I can't remember the specifics, anyway, my grandfather should know about it. ”
"Oh, you know it from start to finish. Is it just to amuse us? The old ghost said.
Qian Cheng shook his head and denied it: "It's not my fault, I don't really know it." Before I came, my life was a mess, so I wanted to go out and walk. But I didn't expect it to be related to my grandfather! I can swear to you that I really don't know about this qiē. ”
We saw that Qian Cheng's tone and expression were very sincere, so we didn't doubt him. I asked, "Did your father mention anything else about your grandfather when he was young?" ”
"Nope!" Qian Cheng said. "Actually, I haven't met my grandfather. About the memories and images, that is, some pictures of the family and my father's narration. A long time ago. We used to live there in the old city. But then, it was flooded, and my grandfather died at that time! ”
"Flooded? Is there a big flood in your place? The old ghost asked.
"Of course not!" Qian Cheng said, "Haven't you heard of the ancient underwater city of Qiandao Lake? ”
"Huh?? Are you talking about the flooded Lion City and Hecheng? The old ghost asked in surprise.
As soon as Qian Cheng heard that the old ghost had answered correctly, he practiced and said, "Yes, yes." It's the Lion City and the Hecheng City. I think everyone who knows about Qiandao Lake knows that it is there! ”
I also nodded and said, "Well, I did." As I understand it, though. The flood was artificially released, must there have been advance notices? How could your grandfather have died at that time? ”
"Then I don't know." Qian Cheng said, "Regarding my grandfather's affairs, almost everyone in the family is taboo, and everyone keeps silent. I remember when I was a kid, I asked my father about him. However, my father just didn't tell me and told me not to ask again. So, I don't know if my grandfather disappeared or passed away. ”
"Then you don't care too much about your grandfather, do you?" The old ghost said, "If it's me, I'll have to find out about my grandfather." Even if the family doesn't mention it, they should check it out! ”
"Do you think I haven't been?" Qian Cheng said, "Of course I went to check it myself, but when I found out, I was beaten up by my father." ”
"Really? What kind of father is this, is it a real father? When the old ghost heard Qian Cheng talk about his tragic experience, he was angry for him and said, "Is your grandfather his own father?" ”
"Nonsense, of course!" Qian Cheng said.
"Is there anyone who treats his own father and son like this?" The old ghost asked, "Why do you do this?" ”
"I don't know!" Qian Cheng said.
"Then you won't ask again?" The old ghost said, "Anyway, it's my own father, when can't I ask?" ”
The question from the old ghost is also the question I want to ask. However, Qian Cheng replied after a while: "Yes, I think so too." But since then, there has been no more chance. ”
"Why?" The old ghost asked casually, he didn't understand what Qian Cheng meant. Qian Cheng meant that his father passed away. It may be that he thought of something sad and did not answer.
I hurriedly smashed the old ghost, and the old ghost didn't know why at first. But when he saw me glaring at him, he understood, and Lian Lian apologized to Qian Cheng: "I'm sorry, look at my elm head." Disrespectful, disrespectful! ”
Qian Cheng said indifferently: "It's okay, it's all in the past anyway." ”
In order to change the topic, at the same time, it is also to clear the doubts in my mind. I asked Qian Cheng, "Then have you heard your father or family members mention anything about the elixir?" ”
Qian Cheng hurriedly shook his head and said, "No! ”
At this moment, we heard Lisa's voice from outside the cave: "Fang Yu, Shi Hui, where are you?" (To be continued......)
