Chapter 6: Speculation
My eyes were so sour that I took a long breath and slowly spit it out. There is a slight discrepancy between the content of the third uncle's letter and my original guess, but it doesn't matter anymore.
I looked at the second uncle and saw that he was sitting on a wooden chair in front of the table, smoking a cigarette. There was no shock, obviously, he knew everything about the third uncle, but his expression was very strange, even a little weird, just when I was observing him, the second uncle suddenly got up, took the letter out of my hand, and said: "Your third uncle has his own choice, this matter, let's end here." ”
Obviously, the second uncle knew more than I imagined, and I asked tentatively, "Where did the third uncle go?" ”
When the smoke burned to the end, he extinguished the cigarette butt, did not answer, and looked at the letter again, and suddenly his expression froze. I sensed that something was wrong, hurried over, followed the second uncle's gaze, and couldn't help but be stunned, the letter was signed a year ago.
That is, the letter was written another year ago.
I immediately remembered the third uncle hiding in the tunnel, who had said that he would tell me the truth when everything was over, and I had been waiting for his letter, but the letter was taken by someone who looked exactly like me.
I have never wanted to investigate who the person who is exactly like me, who has sacrificed too many people in pursuit of these truths, and I have a vague feeling that it is not a good answer, but now...... The man resent the letter to me.
He intercepted the third uncle's letter a year ago, and now he sent it to me, who is he? What exactly is the purpose?
I thought I knew enough about the whole thing, I thought it was all over, but now it seems that some things are clearly not over.
The wildfire in Banai, the reason why the fat man returned to Zhangjiagulou, and now this letter, make me deeply feel that everything is not over, this quiet year, as if it was calm before the storm, and now, the storm seems to be coming.
At this time, the second uncle suddenly turned over the letter, only to see that on the back of the letter, there was a line of words, which was obviously not the third uncle's note, and the handwriting was still very new.
There is only one sentence on it: in the head of the dragon.
I can't find the north at all, what is the dragon's head? On the other hand, the second uncle, he obviously understood something, almost crumpled the letter in his hand, he glanced at me, and said, "You don't care about this matter." ”
What can I say? At the beginning, the third uncle also asked me to leave it alone and not to interfere, what was the result? And now that the second uncle is saying the same thing, is it true that I, Wu Xie, am so cowardly that I don't even have the right to know the truth?
I sat down again, looked at the second uncle, and said solemnly: "I don't want to know anything else, but I have the best relationship with the third uncle since I was a child, and I respect him very much. ”
The second uncle glanced at me lightly, his voice was calm, and said, "What can you do?" Haven't you added enough chaos in the past few years? I'm not your third uncle, what I said has never been taken back, if you dare to step into this matter again, don't blame me for being unkind. "In my impression, the second uncle's attitude towards me has always been indifferent, not as pampered as the third uncle, what he said, I have every reason to believe that he really did it.
But can I leave the third uncle alone? I can't imagine that the third uncle will one day become the same as Huo Ling, why would he fight for his last life to the so-called end place?
I've never been so confused, obviously, this matter is not really over, although the organization has collapsed, but the people involved in it have not given up, they obviously still have mastered something, and they still have not given up the search. The third uncle wants the matter to end here, and he doesn't want me to get involved again, but it's been more than a year since the third uncle wrote this letter, is he alive or dead?
Perhaps, he is trapped somewhere, waiting for someone to rescue him, while I can only stay in my shop.
The second uncle's attitude was very resolute, and after he finished speaking, he got up and said lightly: "I'll let Lao Lei send you back, take care of the third child's industry, there are some things...... Not what you can afford right now. Your third uncle is for your good, you can settle down and don't let him worry about it anymore. I was speechless for a while, and the second uncle walked out of the study with his hands behind his back, and the letter had been crumpled by him and placed quietly on the table.
Lao Lei was still slowly picking up the meal, I don't know if he heard our conversation, he looked at the second uncle who walked out of the study, put down the chopsticks, glanced at me lightly, and said, "Let's go." ”
Sitting in the car, my whole person was in a daze, when I arrived at the store, it was already more than nine o'clock in the evening, the shop had been closed, I opened the door and went in, the store was very tidy, Zhao Wang was very careful in doing things.
I went up to the second floor, took a random shower and lay on the bed, and the events of the past two days were constantly replaying in my mind.
The death of 'Zhang Qiling' in the 100,000 mountains, the whereabouts of the fat man, the life and death of the third uncle now, and the person who sent me the letter, I lay on the bed, sorted out my chaotic thoughts, and finally found that this so-called 'they' have an obvious purpose, that is, they want me to come forward.
First of all, the fat man has nothing to do with Lao Jiumen's affairs, all along, the fat man's participation has been more or less a coincidence, even for me, and they will suddenly find the fat man, which is obviously also related to me. If the person who sent me the letter is also one of 'them', then their purpose is obvious, they want me to come forward!
But what do they want me to do? Or rather, what can I bring to them?
'They' probably entered the Zhangjia Ancient Building, and they also attacked the fake 'Zhang Qiling', obviously tracking something. Next, what does the last sentence mean in the dragon's head?
In the confusion, I picked up the corner of the clothes left by the fat man, and repeatedly studied the patterns on it, but I still couldn't get any clue, and in my irritability, I couldn't help but put the cloth close to my eyes, and I still couldn't see anything, but the tip of my nose smelled a familiar smell.
This smell is very light, not unpleasant, and even a little fragrant, but this smell is something I don't want to smell anymore, it is the smell of Chen Wenjin, more precisely, the smell of the forbidden woman.
I rolled up from the bed in fright, stared at the fabric in front of me, and sniffed it under my nose again, and it was coming from the fabric.
At that moment, the cold hairs on my back stood up, and my hand holding the fabric trembled a little, it seems that there is nothing strange about the corner of the clothes left by the fat man, what he wants me to pay attention to is this smell!
But Banai obviously can't have a forbidden woman, so who else has this taste?
As far as I know, the only one who has this taste is Chen Wenjin.
Could it be that Chen Wenjin is still alive, the stuffy oil bottle can survive in that meteorite for more than ten days, and she may have survived, so what has she been doing this year? Why did you find a fat man?
The more I thought about it, the farther I ended up feeling a little ridiculous. The chance that Chen Wenjin would still be alive was too small, and if the stuffy oil bottle that came out of the meteorite jade at that time, if it wasn't for me and the fat man waiting for him below, with his physical strength and sanity at that time, it would be impossible for him to get out of the Western Queen Mother Country alive.
And Wen Jin stayed in the meteorite for a longer time, without any food, even if she could get out of it, how could she leave the Qaidam Basin? From this point of view, Chen Wenjin's chances are very small, so the rest ...... There is only the third uncle.
However, the third uncle has been missing for a whole year, how can he appear in Banai, he has no reason to find the fat man.
It's messed up, it's completely messed up, what the hell is going on?
I lay in bed and stared at the ceiling for a long time, my mind gradually calmed down, and now I kind of understood why the stuffy oil bottle liked to stare at the ceiling so much.
Now the whole situation, I'm in the shadows, but apparently someone is already eyeing me, and now there are two ways, one is to wait. Since 'they' clearly wanted to pull me out, if I didn't act, they would definitely do it again. The second is to take the initiative, but I have too little information now, and the whole incident is confusing, and I don't know what their purpose is, so it is very difficult.
If I wait like this, I'm not sure if anything will happen to the fat man, and even now I'm not sure if the fat man has an accident, he just disappeared mysteriously, and I don't know if he lives or dies.
The third uncle said that only by taking the initiative can we have greater certainty.
Immediately, I turned on my computer and enumerated the information I had.
One is the address, the address where the third uncle sent the letter at that time, which proves that the third uncle has lived there for a while, and may leave some clues.
One is the three words after the letter, I typed in the dragon head on the computer, not much information came out, most of it is a message called Longshou Mountain, which mainly introduces the mountain topography of Longshou Mountain, is tourist information. Immediately afterward, I flipped back more than ten pages, and suddenly saw a title: Ten Thousand Miles, China's Dragon Head.
I clicked into it and found a general introduction to the Kunlun Mountains.
There was nothing special about the introduction itself, but it made me think of another level.
The Kunlun Mountains are the general trunk of the western mountain range, across Xinjiang, Qinghai and Sichuan, and it is said that it is the place where the emperors and immortals gather, and it has been known as the Chinese dragon vein since ancient times, and the Kunlun Mountains are also known as the dragon's head, which is the dragon's head.
The Kunlun Mountains are three million long-term, admired by people since ancient times, its entrance is just at the end of Qaidam, separated by a deep ravine, so far, only one canyon can be walked up, except for scientific expeditions and expeditions, almost no one has set foot in it.
Kunlun Mountain is also known as Kunlun Void, the void is the meaning of endless infinity, according to legend is the place where heaven and earth meet, divided into three layers, climb the first layer can not die, the second layer can gather the aura of heaven and earth, and the third layer can become immortals. Of course, these are just legends, but when I think of the Queen Mother Kingdom of Daoxi and the ageless Zhang family, I have to associate it.
Could it be that the so-called in the head of the dragon refers to what they are looking for in the Kunlun Mountains?
First, he showed me the letter from the third uncle, and then told me that it was in Kunlun Mountain. What the third uncle is looking for is the secret of the Zhang family's longevity, did the third uncle really go to Kunlun Mountain?
My heart is beating hard, but now all this is just speculation, and I can't assert that if the third uncle really went to Kunlun Mountain, then it would have been more than a year since then, and I am afraid that there will be more than one luck. Thinking of this, my heart was cold, and it was not until the second half of the night that my body couldn't stay up, so I fell asleep in a daze.
