I agreed without even thinking about it. Let alone one condition, even if it was a hundred, I would still nod and agree. After all, this is a matter of life and death for Ling Jiang, and it is worth paying any price.
But, does he really know?
The thank you you just gave me was an extremely positive statement. His father definitely didn’t know, so there was no need for me to waste my time asking. Why did Xie Liuzhang come over and slap his son in the face not long after this?
Xie Liushang said, I didn't tell him because I was afraid that he would make the same mistake as his grandfather. I only have one son, and I can’t bear the price until I have a grandson. So if you want me to tell you the place, you can, but you absolutely cannot tell Xie Bugui, nor can you take him with you!
I was deeply moved when I heard this. No wonder Xie Bugui was kept in the dark. It turned out that his father was worried that he would be in danger. This heavy father's love is enough to show Xie Liushang's good intentions.
I agreed wholeheartedly, and then asked him, more than sixty years have passed, do you still remember?
It's not that I don't believe Xie Liushang, but he was only three years old at that time. How could he remember that incident for so long? Even if I remember it, I am afraid that the sixty-five years of life experience will make that memory confused and blurred, right?
But Xie Liushang shook his head and said, I can't guarantee other things, but I do remember that thing very clearly. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been so excited when I saw you for the first time.
That's the truth. If it weren't for a blood feud, he wouldn't have had the need to drag his old body and whip me with a special crutch.
However, no matter how great the hatred is, sixty-five years have passed, who can guarantee that his memory will not be biased? China has such a large land area and so many place names. If one word is wrong, all the efforts we have made here will be in vain.
Xie Liushang said, you may not believe it, but the scene from that year has been flashing in my mind. Every night as soon as I close my eyes, I hear my father laughing and saying to me, "Gua Wazi, a person from our village." There is help, we are going to Shenxianling to become gods! '
I remember that when Xie Bugui told us about this incident, he talked about this scene, but the only dialogue he depicted was the sentence "The people in our village have been saved." It seems that Xie Liuzhang deliberately cut off the beginning and the end to tell Xie Bugui.
With Xie Bugui in the background, it shows that what Xie Liushang said is still very credible. As for whether it can be believed, we will have to wait until Zhang Hazi wakes up to know.
So I asked Xie Liushang, where is Shenxianling?
He said that it was a legendary place, but I had only heard of it but had never been there. As for where to go, don't ask me, I don't know at all.
I believe Xie Liushang will not lie to me. After all, he has even told me the names of the places, so there is no point in lying to me anymore.
But I wasn't as happy as I imagined. I thought about it, maybe it was because I didn't know where the Fairy Ridge was. Because although I know the name of this place, I always feel that it is no different from not knowing.
After thinking for a while, I couldn't figure out where the Immortal Ridge was, so I stopped looking into it and walked towards his house.
When we reached a fork in the road, Xie Liushang said he had something to do and had to go somewhere else, so he would not accompany me back. I didn't understand the meaning of the flashing look on his face at first, but when I thought about him concealing Xie Bugui, I couldn't help but admire his thoughtfulness.
If it were me, I would also suspect that Xie Liushang told the other party the location. After all, disappearing and appearing at the same time, it is difficult not to make people suspicious.
But even though what Xie Liushang did was so hidden, as soon as I returned to the yard, Xie Bugui asked me, have you met my father?
I said that after I bought the local duck, I took a detour to Mr. Xie Chuanji's place and got scolded. Maybe I missed it and didn't come across it. He even put on a whole show and asked him what he wanted to do with his father, and if he wanted me to go out and help him look for him?
He waved his hand, indicating that it was just a casual question and it was nothing important.
I didn't act too deliberately, so I didn't ask any more questions, but went directly to the kitchen to deal with the duck and duck eggs.
Not long after I made the beer duck and scallion omelette, Zhang Hazi walked out of the room and said, "I will live in a house with you for a long time. If I hadn't been so sleepy, I would have been eaten by you two." old?
I smiled and said nothing. After all, this meal was specially cooked for him. Even if he didn't wake up, I would leave a portion of the meal for him.
After eating and drinking, I was very careful not to leave in a hurry, so as not to make Xie Bugui suspicious. I felt that I must have heard something from his father, so I left in such a hurry. Instead, I expressed that it was inconvenient to go back. Stay one night and wait until Zhang Hazi and I are well rested before leaving.
Xie Bugui was stunned by my request. It was obvious that he did not expect that I would make such a request. I could see a trace of disappointment on his face.
However, he did not reject me, but agreed wholeheartedly, and then asked me what my plans were next.
I still behaved as before, turning to look at Zhang Hazi, indicating that I obeyed him in everything.
Zhang Hazi thought for a while and asked the same question as me. After hearing Xie Bugui's answer, he asked again, are there any seniors with Sichuan characters in the village?
Xie Bugui said that there was yes, but his temper was not very good. He had asked about it before and was scolded.
I nodded and roughly told what happened.
Zhang Hazi said that this is exposing someone's scars, and it is normal to be scolded.
Hearing this, I was a little surprised. When did Zhang Hazi become so easy to talk to? As a result, he pulled out the bamboo strip knife from his waist with a sound and said, since the soft one is not enough, then the hard one is not enough. I don't believe it. After all, it is his mouth that is tough, and it is I who is the tough one with the bamboo strip knife! Come on, lead the way. Let’s see if I don’t hack that turtle son Xie Buxin to death!
With that said, Zhang Hazi walked out of the courtyard with the bamboo knife. Xie Bugui and I were so frightened that we hurriedly stopped him. We tried to persuade him for a long time before we were able to persuade him. He was so angry that he said he wanted to eat a roast chicken at night. Only then can you calm down the anger in your heart.
I put my hand away at that time, indicating that you just want to eat roast chicken, right?
Zhang Hazi chuckled, put away the bamboo knife and continued to deal with the bowl of beer duck. It looked so turbulent, as if it hadn't been eaten just now.
But with Zhang Hazi's amazing assist, I think that no matter how much Xie Bugui doubted me, his doubts should have been dispelled by now.
While Zhang Hazi was eating duck, I asked him, how do those people make their wives willing to die for them?
This question has been bothering me, but I can't figure it out. They were tortured to death by the other party. Why didn't they grab the lid of the coffin? Why did they still protect their coffins like that?
Zhang Hazi paused while eating the duck, and then said that if he wants to know the answer to this question, unless he finds those people back then, he will never know it for the rest of his life.
Let me tell you, even you can't think of it?
He said angrily, "I have a descendant in your house today. I am also a human being. Why should I know if you don't know?"
Let me tell you, since the souls of those seniors are still in the graves, can they be summoned to ask?
Zhang Hazi shook his head and said that being able to produce a big drop of corpse gas meant that he had only one thought in his heart, and that was to protect the coffin. Even if the spirit is summoned, there is no way to figure it out. Maybe he is going to perform a full martial arts show, so there is no need to let it go.
I sighed, weighed the bamboo knife that Zhang Hazi put on the table, and said, how about we ask Mr. Xie Chuanji again?
I originally did the whole set just to put on a show in front of Xie Bugui, but I didn’t expect that Zhang Hazi slapped the table and said, I will give you a descendant, go ahead and chop him to death!
