Chapter 82: The Second Uncle is in Danger
After listening to Yuan An's question, I nodded, "My second uncle did tell me about the things back then. ”
"Well, it's good that you understand, so that I can make it simple," Yuan An continued: "After that incident, the Tan family's team was wiped out, and the Tan family in Sichuan felt that this matter was suspicious, and pointed the finger at the other three major families involved in this matter, and even your second uncle was also suspected because he temporarily changed his mind and did not participate. ”
Speaking of this, I suddenly asked, "When it comes to this, I'm curious." Twenty years ago, my second uncle originally received an invitation to agree, but why did he suddenly change his mind later, this is completely inconsistent with his character, no wonder the Tan family is suspicious, even I think it is really strange. Uncle An, you and my second uncle have known each other for many years, do you know why my second uncle temporarily changed his hexagram at that time, and where did he go during that time? ”
Yuan An became a little serious, "I don't know about this matter, in fact, everyone has a secret in their hearts, he doesn't want to say it, I don't think I can force it." ”
I knew that Yuan An was right, but I still nodded with some disappointment, "Uncle An, you go on." ”
Yuan An continued: "At that time, there were occasional conflicts between the Yuan family and the Tan family in the southwest, so we became the focus of suspicion, the relationship between the Yuan family and the Tan family was very tense at that time, and it was not until later that it slowly subsided, forming the current situation. And the situation of the Tan family has also undergone complex changes in the past two years, your second uncle has not asked about the Tan family for many years, and your second uncle may not know about this. ”
Hearing Yuan An's words, I nodded, if this is the case, it is indeed a little difficult for him to let Yuan An do this. Still, I find this matter questionable.
At this moment, the door was opened, and one of Yuan An's guys pushed the door in, just about to speak, Yuan An's eyes moved, and the guy quickly shut up, and then Yuan An said to us: "You sit down first, I'll deal with a little chores." ”
After Yuan An and Tian Laosi pushed the door out, there were only two of us left in the house, and Lantern Xiao came to me with a chair and whispered in my ear: "Do you believe what this old man said?" ”
I thought for a moment and said, "There are some facts, but not all. I felt something was wrong, but I hadn't figured it out yet. ”
Lantern Xiao nodded, "Yuan An definitely didn't tell us the truth. ”
"Why do you think that?" I asked, "Do you have any ideas?" ”
Lan Xiao lowered her voice and said, "It's very simple, just one thing I know that Yuan An must hide something from us." ”
I hurriedly urged him: "Hurry up! ”
Lantern Xiao glanced at the door, "If your second uncle just wants to return this ring to the woman in the photo, even if it is really as Yuan An said, due to some entanglements in the past, your second uncle can't personally send the ring over." Then he can go with just someone, even if he sends a guy to go, why would he use such a complicated method to hand it over to Yuan An! ”
Let Lantern Festival say this, it's really like this. Because of the incident twenty years ago, for the Tan family, Yuan An's identity is more embarrassing, and it is impossible for the second uncle to be unthinkable about this. Then why did he leave things secretly to Yuan An in this way, there must be a last resort.
"And," Lantern Xiao continued, "Regarding Yuan An's inability to send things to the Tan family, it's not just like he said. I heard my dad talk about the relationship with the Tan family, and the Tan family did have a conflict with the other three families because of the unclear death of the Tan family, but many years have passed, and the Tan family has long since stopped biting this matter. Although Tang Yuan Tan Nie is known as the four major families in the inverted fighting world, in the final analysis, they are all a group of craftsmen, somewhat powerful, but now it is a society ruled by law, and we are not an underworld, so it is impossible to fight and kill at will. ”
"You're right," I nodded, "I didn't notice it at first glance. I was almost fooled by this old man. ”
Lantern Xiao said: "I used to go out with my dad often, I have seen a lot of this kind of thing, and when dealing with this kind of old rivers and lakes, you have to break every sentence and crush it, and analyze it carefully." ”
I listened carefully to the outside of the door and confirmed that Yuan An and the others had not returned.
I thought about it carefully according to what Lantern Xiao just said, and then tried to start analyzing, "If this is the case, first of all, you can explain what is special about this ring or photo, there may be secrets hidden on it that we don't know, and it is inconvenient for the second uncle to take it with him, so it must be handed over to Yuan An for safekeeping, or disposal." ”
As I spoke, I picked up the ring on the table and looked at it repeatedly, but I couldn't see anything out of the ordinary.
At this time, Lantern Xiao asked, "According to your train of thought, why is it inconvenient for your second uncle to keep this thing by his side?" ”
I continued to think, "If this ring or photo has a special importance, there is only one possibility that the second uncle can't take them with him," Thinking of this, I was stunned, and my face instantly turned pale.
Lantern Xiao hurriedly asked, "What is the possibility, you said!" ”
I turned my head to look at Lantern Xiao and said word by word: "This can only show that these two things are no longer safe with the second uncle, so he transferred them." Prove that the second uncle is in danger now! ”
As soon as my voice fell, Lantern Xiao was stunned for a moment, "That's right, it must mean that someone wants to be unfavorable to your second uncle, and he is afraid that these two things will fall into the hands of others, so he did this." ”
I panicked, and I jerked to my feet.
I just thought that the second uncle was following the clues of the desert and the ancient tombs on the island. No matter how confusing and unbelievable things are, I feel that the second uncle is in charge of this matter, as long as the second uncle is willing to stop at any time, he can ensure safety before acting, and it is precisely because of this that the second uncle lost contact, and I was able to get some information about him on the side, so that although I really hoped to find him, I was not very worried.
At this time, I knew that things were far more complicated than I imagined, and if the second uncle was just looking for the tomb according to the clues, it would already be full of variables, but now that there are other people's calculations, the second uncle may have been in danger at this time, and I am anxious when I think of this.
Lantern Xiao pulled me to sit down, "Zhuo Ran, you calm down first, these are just our speculations, what the actual situation is not necessarily, even so, your second uncle is not an idle person, he has been in this circle for so many years, how can he be settled casually." ”
