Chapter 531: Refusal, or Acceptance
Grandpa waved his hand and motioned me not to say it, but this matter is not like I can't say it as if it didn't happen, I was silent for a while, and plucked up the courage to speak: "Grandpa, can I tell you what's going on?" But on the other hand, please also tell me how the battle of 100 men happened thirty or forty years ago. "It's a deal in itself.
Grandpa looked up at me, his face was a little solemn, and his eyes were terrifying, this is a kind of look that I have never seen before, or it is an imposing look that I have never seen in grandpa.
"Is that what you're for?" Grandpa said coldly.
I was silent for a moment and nodded, "This is my only wish now, I must know the truth about the Hundred Men War." β
"I don't have to ask about Xi'er, but you don't have to investigate what happened thirty or forty years ago." Grandpa said in a deep voice.
"What if it's about the death of my father and aunt?" I said slowly.
Grandpa just hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and sighed, "That's it, let's just pay off the debt." β
"What debt?" I frowned slightly, could it be that the white man's war really had an inside story? And grandpa also participated, "Thirty or forty years ago, it was obviously a debt owed by your generation, so you want your parents and Lin Xi to pay it back with their lives?" β
Grandpa lowered his head, picked up the teacup and took a sip, "There are some things, you can't understand the subtlety now, my father's revenge with my aunt, I will revenge, you are still a child." β
"What if it's my aunt who came to ask grandpa this question?" Instead of being in a hurry, I asked in a different way.
"I'll just ask," Grandpa was silent for a moment, then looked up at me, "Are you Xi'er or Moling?" β
How to answer this question? Lin Moling, "In this life, my name is this."
Grandpa nodded, "Then you are Moling, and you can't become Xi'er." β
I could call her out, "We're using one body anyway."
Grandpa was silent, and I continued: "In the final analysis, she and I are just the same person, from beginning to end, Lin Xi is Lin Moling. β
"What?" Grandpa looked up at me in confusion.
"Sixteen years ago, my parents, me, and Lin Xi, we all died, killed by a woman named Chu Liujun, but my grandfather found out that I had no soul since birth, so he put Lin Xi's soul into my body and resurrected me, and the reason why Lin Xi can become a soul is from beginning to end, Lin Xi is a part of me, an independent doppelganger who was stripped from my body before I died in my previous life. Therefore, we have been one person from beginning to end, and Lin Xi has been Lin Moling from beginning to end. I slowly blurted out the truth.
Grandpa's face was full of shock, "What did you say!" β
I shook my head, "Lin Xi is a part of me, and now he has just returned to his original form." She is me, and I am her. β
"How can this be, how can this be," the teacup in his hand knocked over, and his hands trembled and he was a little overwhelmed.
"I'm sorry, grandpa, I'm ...... I didn't mean to hide it from you, I was just afraid that ...... "I'm just afraid that you won't be able to accept it, I just lost my son not long ago, and now I know that even my daughter is gone." If he hadn't persecuted his son so much, maybe what happened later would not have happened.
"It's not your fault," as soon as the voice came from behind him, Lin Xi, who was wearing a white printed plain skirt Hanfu, slowly walked in.
"Xi'er," grandpa got up a little excited to greet Lin Xi, I quickly supported grandpa, Lin Xi also quickly stepped forward and grabbed grandpa.
"From the beginning, this is all destined by heaven, maybe it's a good thing for the eldest brother to leave, so that I can see her again," said Lin Xi, glancing at me. "I think the eldest brother did not regret that he ran away from home at the beginning, and meeting his sister-in-law was the greatest luck in his life."
Grandpa could only nod in response, and the old tears were rampant. "Go see your mother, talk to her, she's been so stimulated today. I still have something to tell Moling. β
"Okay," Lin Xi nodded, turned around and entered the back room, leaving me and my grandfather alone.
I helped my grandfather to the seat to finish it, bent down to pick up the teacup on the ground, cleaned it up, and grandpa let out a long sigh of relief.
"If I had understood him a little bit back then, maybe it wouldn't be like this today." Grandpa let out a long sigh.
"If my father hadn't run away from home back then, I guess I don't have such a lovely granddaughter now." I couldn't help but speak.
Grandpa was amused by my words, "Yes, if that stinky boy didn't run away from home, and grandpa didn't have such a lovely granddaughter as you, Moling, then do you have any plans to take over the Lin family." β
I hesitated for a moment and laughed, "Grandpa, you haven't answered me in the exchange just now." β
Grandpa was stunned for a moment, and then remembered, "Grandpa didn't promise you to exchange questions." It's Moling, you have to say it yourself. β
It seems that yes, my face suddenly darkened, and my grandfather couldn't help but laugh, "Let's talk about business first." Grandpa hopes that you can take over the Lin family, and grandpa is already old. β
I couldn't help but smile bitterly, "These two things are directly related, if I can't survive, what use will I have for this so-called duty?" β
Grandpa was also taken aback, "What do you mean by that?" β
"What kind of person is Chu Liujun, grandpa, you should have heard of it, back then, my parents, and Lin Xi all died at her hands, I was worried about ......" I hesitated. Nowadays, I don't have any chance of winning at all.
"That's not what you should do, these things are handled by grandpa, and you don't need to worry about it." Grandpa comforted me. "So, this Lin family needs you."
I hesitated for a moment, "So, I want to really solve this matter, Chu Liujun is going to my grandfather, I feel that there must have been a misunderstanding about the events of the year, and, the battle of a hundred people, it must not be as simple as rumored, a good negotiation, obviously the plan is so good, why did it suddenly collapse, I don't understand, how much do you know about the events of the year, grandpa?" β
Grandpa didn't say anything more, just shook his head and let out a long sigh, "That's the sin committed by the Dao Gate, the Demon Spirit Pavilion and Wuye at the same time, the so-called organization, the so-called plan, it can't be successfully realized at all, the rift and friction between the forces of the major organizations are very big, and the so-called tripartite alliance plan is a joke at all." β
I think I understood what was going on, "You guys, it's really scary. I frowned deeply, not knowing what kind of mood and eyes to look at this so-called world. Maybe I'm too naΓ―ve.
Grandpa laughed helplessly, "yes, it's really scary." If you stay in this world for a long time, it will really become terrifying. β
I thought for a moment, "I...... I still don't want to give up. β
"You win the competition, this heir is always yours, it's up to you to give up." Grandpa was also helpless.
"Grandpa, can you give me a little more time to think about it?" I was very entangled, "If I can survive and solve this misunderstanding, I may come back and accept this identity, but I will not give up the identity of Onmyoji." β
"It's up to you." Grandpa sighed, "Grandpa knows that he can't convince you, but you have to remember not to be impulsive and stay calm." β
I nodded, "I know, help me apologize to my grandmother, and I'll stay here with Lin Xi." β
Grandpa was taken aback, "Are you going to leave here?" β
I nodded, "There's a very serious case over there, I have to go back and deal with it, it's been happening for several days, I'm dragging the Lingling Conference to end before I am ready to leave, if this matter can be handled well, maybe I can know where my dad went." β
Grandpa's eyes suddenly opened, "What do you mean when you say your father is going?" β
"Father's soul is gone, I asked Lord Hades, he said that he has not seen his father, and his father's soul is gone, this case has something to do with Dad, maybe I can know where Dad is, or Dad's clues, it is always a way, "It's all this step, and I have nothing to hide."
Grandpa's heart suddenly stopped, and he almost passed, "If there is anything, you must tell grandpa." β
I nodded, "yes, I know." β
In the afternoon, I simply cleaned up, and hurried back, what happened after the Lingqi Conference, I don't know how grandpa handled it, but grandpa was also busy, so in order to help grandpa share his worries, I threw Lin Xi there to help.
On the way back, I leaned on Jiang Wan's arms and closed my eyes and pretended to sleep, the Lingling Conference has been really tired these days, I might as well follow Wenyu Rou Yin Mingchen to the comic exhibition, I compared these games before and after, the real qi, the waste of intelligence is really a bit too much. When the body is tired, the heart is even more tired.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Wan took me into her arms, "Are you tired?" β
I let out a long sigh of relief, "Perhaps, I have been too naΓ―ve all along, and what you have told me is true, and I am too inappropriate." β
Jiang Wan didn't speak, just put the blanket on me, "It's okay, you can sleep well, it will always pass." β
It will always pass, I breathed a long sigh of relief, leaned into Jiang Wan's arms, Ke Ke also arched in my arms, closed his eyes and pretended to sleep, it is estimated that it is quite relaxed these days, and I have slept all day long.
Ling Ge next to him glanced at the two of us lightly, didn't say anything, leaned on the back of the chair and closed his eyes.
I slept all the way back, and it was already past six o'clock when I got on the plane, and it was eight or nine o'clock when I got home. I didn't eat dinner, I was so sleepy that I couldn't open my eyes, but I was still worried in my heart, thinking about the company's affairs, and I was afraid that something would happen again this night. When I returned to the pawnshop, I was not there, probably listening to my words and staring at the company, and it was hard for him to say it.
