Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Same Year
The thoughts that flashed through my mind made me gasp. I quickly picked up the teacup in front of me and took a sip to calm down. I thought about it in my heart, then smiled at Nie Zhenyun and said, "Uncle Nie, I really don't know if I don't listen to you." My second uncle turned out to have this temper back then. ”
"Yes," Nie Zhenyun nodded.
I pretended to be inadvertent and asked, "When did my second uncle become keen on inverted fighting?" ”
Nie Zhenyun put down the teacup in his hand and raised his eyes to look at me.
I snorted, "Ah, I'm just curious, so I wanted to ask." ”
"This, I'll have to think about it." Nie Zhenyun lightly nodded his forehead, thought for a while, and said, "I remember almost twenty years ago. ”
"Twenty years ago??" I blurted out with some surprise. Twenty years ago, and it seems that the starting point of these strange events that I experienced was almost all twenty years ago. At this moment, I am really eager to know what happened back then!
If the second uncle has been keen on inverting since 20 years ago, what is the reason for him to have such a change in people.
I continued to pretend to be calm and said to Nie Zhenyun: "It's really strange, was my second uncle short of money that year?" After I finished speaking, I picked up the teacup and looked at Nie Zhenyun.
Nie Zhenyun leaned back on the sofa and looked at me with a smile on his shoulders. I was uncomfortable with him, smiled awkwardly, and asked, "Uncle Nie, why are you looking at me like this?" ”
Nie Zhenyun narrowed his eyes, "Hou Sheng, you have been testing me with words, what do you mean?" ”
Nie Zhenyun's words shocked me, just now I really wanted to understand the situation of the second uncle back then, and I didn't want to expose my motives, so I kept trying to understand the situation, but how shrewd a character like Nie Zhenyun was, he immediately understood my thoughts. It's only now that I'm being exposed, it's already very face-saving for me.
I also know that what I did just now was really out of proportion, and arguing with such an old Jianghu is tantamount to adding fuel to the fire, and the only thing that can be remedied is to quickly and honestly apologize.
I quickly stood up, "Uncle Nie, I'm sorry, it's true that I was rude, I want to know something about my second uncle's situation back then, so I have to ask Uncle Nie to tell me." ”
Nie Zhenyun tapped the armrest of the sofa with his hand, "Yes, if you have something to say, I hate talking around the bush." ”
I quickly nodded yes.
Since I said this, I don't have to hide it, so I asked directly: "Uncle Nie, I just want to know if my second uncle encountered something wrong twenty years ago?" ”
Nie Zhenyun shook his head gently, "Nephew Xian won't tell you, I really don't know about this matter." Because we saw very little that year. Hearing him say this, I couldn't help but be a little disappointed, and secretly complained in my heart, since I didn't know anything, wouldn't I be tempted in vain, and I was robbed by him for nothing.
But I didn't give up, and then asked, "So was there anything special about my second uncle that year?" ”
Nie Zhenyun stroked his chin, thought for a while and said, "This, your second uncle was indeed a little strange that year. Before, because he liked antiques, he had close contacts with the people in the inverted circle, and even occasionally went to the ground. Although he doesn't do this often, your second uncle's ability is family heirloom, and you are also clear about this, so each family still wants your second uncle to participate. ”
I nodded, the second uncle's attainments in inverted buckets, I have deeply understood.
Nie Zhenyun continued: "But since that year, your second uncle's actions have suddenly become extremely low-key. Not only is it difficult to see your second uncle in the inverted circle, but even the entire antique circle is difficult to find your second uncle's traces. ”
"Oh?" The situation that Nie Zhenyun said is indeed very strange, my second uncle has been obsessed with these things since he was young, if he puts these things down for a short time, it is possible, but he has not been exposed to this for a whole year or even longer, then there is only one reason, that is, the second uncle is busy with an extremely important thing and neglects this hobby of his own.
I took a deep breath and pondered it carefully, but I had no clue, so I couldn't help but rub my forehead and unconsciously mutter, "What happened that year?" ”
"Uh," Nie Zhenyun thought about it with a frown, and then said to me: "If anything happened that year, there was really a big event that year, and it was the biggest thing in the inverted dou circle in the past hundred years!" ”
"What's the big deal in the inverted circle?" I thought about it for a while, and coupled with the twenty years ago that Nie Zhenyun mentioned just now, I immediately thought of what he was referring to, and subconsciously blurted out: "Could it be that the four major families united to enter Gurbantunggut?" ”
After hearing what I said, Nie Zhenyun couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and said, "That's right, it should be your second uncle who told you." ”
I nodded and replied, "Yes, does the change in my second uncle have anything to do with this matter?" ”
"I don't think so, so I didn't mention it at first," Nie Zhenyun shook his head, "Because before this incident, your second uncle was already difficult to see." Besides, back then, the four major families intended to invite your second uncle to participate in that operation, but your second uncle refused. I guess you know about this too, right? ”
Yes, that's right. If things are as I guessed before, that is, the second uncle has caused a change in his style because of an extremely special incident, then it means that this extremely special thing has already happened when the four major families began to plan joint operations! The change in the second uncle really has nothing to do with this matter.
But if it's not this, what would it be? At that time, it had already happened, and it had such a big impact on the second uncle, I am afraid that all I can think of is that I was seriously ill at that time. Could it be that the truth of the matter is just that the second uncle wants to cure my illness with all his heart?! So what is the reason for him to keep going down to the ground? Is it also to find a way to save me? This sounds a little unbelievable, could it be that the way to save me is hidden underground?
It was so confusing that I closed my glasses and let out a long breath. I drank all the tea in the cup in front of me, and when I raised my eyes, I saw Nie Zhenyun looking at me honestly. I smiled reluctantly, and then asked casually, "Uncle Nie, do you remember what year the four major families joined forces?" ”
Nie Zhenyun didn't think too much about it this time, but opened his mouth and said: "I have an impression of this year, because our country just finished hosting the Asian Games the year before, and this incident happened in the second year!" ”
Twenty years ago, the Asian Games must have referred to the one in 1990. Its second year, that is, the year when the four great families united to enter Gurbantunggut, was 1991!
But what's the use of knowing this?
I shook my head gently, picked up the teapot and filled the teacup in front of Nie Zhenyun, and filled myself with tea, I poured it while muttering in my heart, "1991, 1991......"
Thinking about it, all of a sudden, I remembered something, like a lightning bolt in my mind, 1991!! I said that the reason why I always feel that this year is somewhat familiar is because the abandoned camp we found in the Qilian Mountains was fixed in 1991!
Qilian Mountain conducts an organized survey, the four major families entered Gurbantunggut, and both events happened twenty years ago, so will there be any connection between them!!
