Chapter 3 Second Uncle's Secret
In addition, the second uncle said that after the house was built, my grandfather's grandfather had done the construction for a long time, which was consistent with the previous situation. It was very likely that the underground secret room was built secretly to avoid the eyes and ears.
When things came to this point, I became very interested in the secret room of my ancestral home. I made up my mind to find a way to go in and take a look!
The second uncle on the side was silent for a while, and suddenly asked, "Why didn't your second uncle come?"
I was shocked. Could it be that my second uncle was planning to sue the second uncle who was absent from worshiping his ancestors for no reason, so he quickly defended his uncle, "Ah, my second uncle suddenly had something urgent to do. He was in another place and couldn't get out of here for a while. Otherwise, he would definitely come!"
The second uncle nodded, "Speaking of this, your father and brother, your second uncle has lived in the ancestral home for the longest time. He has lived here for several years after your grandfather passed away. Even now, he still comes back from time to time to see it."
I also understand what my second uncle said. Among the five fathers and siblings, the second uncle and grandfather have the deepest relationship.
The second uncle paused and continued, "Your second uncle was a man who was always a person who was not shocking and never stopped. The same is true for doing things! I thought that after your grandfather left, he would fly away, but I didn't expect that he could stay here for so many years."
I smiled, "It seems that my second uncle did a lot of extraordinary things when he was young?"
The second uncle nodded, "That's not! Take your grandfather's death, and your second uncle didn't keep his vigilance, and he was about to leave after carrying his bag. We were all stupid, and stopped him wherever he went for him, guess what he said?"
I shook my head, and my second uncle smiled bitterly and said, "He said he wanted to bring your grandpa back! Everyone thought this child was sad and overly hysterical, but he couldn't stop him!"
When the second uncle talked about this, he seemed to be telling a joke, but it sounded a little in my heart. When I remembered my experience in the strange ancient Shanhuan Kingdom just now, I knew very well what the second uncle meant to bring my grandfather back! But at the same time, I was very confused. Did the second uncle know the meaning and unique function of that place at the beginning? If this is true, then what is his real purpose in entering the ancient ancient Shanhuan Kingdom this time?
At this time, my heart was already in a state of uproar. My second uncle didn't notice my expression and continued, "As long as your second uncle is determined, the eight cows can't pull them back. I'm so determined!"
I took a deep breath, calmed down, and asked as if nothing had happened, "What about it later?"
The second uncle smiled, "Later, I couldn't stop him anymore. I was anxious and went up and slapped him with a big mouth and cursed: 'You bastard! Why are you crazy! Your father is lying here, and he finds another one. Can he be your father?' These two words really made him clear and he became honest in one go."
I nodded in confusion and looked at my second uncle blankly, "Second uncle, your words really come to the point!" Similar words were also said in the Spring of Life under the Ancient King of Shanhuan City, and this is also the reason why I exploded the pool.
The second uncle thought I was praising him and took a sip of wine happily. But I fell into deep thought. The second uncle would have known so clearly. If it were the information brought by the four major families entering the royal city twenty years ago, it would be easy to understand. The problem is that the four major families failed that year, and they could not pass through the royal tomb, nor could they find the Fountain of Life. So where did the second uncle know come from? Could it be that he had really... a flash of lightning flashed through my mind, the photo in Sadiq's hand!
We did doubt the authenticity of Sadik's photos at the beginning, and we also guessed that he was bribed by the Tang family, but now it seems that things are definitely much more complicated than we imagined!
I couldn't help but sigh in my heart. I thought that my second uncle's departure would take away many secrets and everything. But now it seems that the secrets left seem to be more complicated!
I thought about it and asked my second uncle, "Then, has my second uncle done anything strange?"
The second uncle had already had half a glass of wine at this time. When he heard my question, he waved his hand with a smile, "He, he liked to tinker with strange things since he was young. Do you know that once he actually brought back a light that could change color, and another time, he..."
Seeing that my second uncle was drunk a little and couldn't stop talking, I hurriedly stopped him, "Second uncle, think about it, have you done something strange during the period after my grandfather passed away?"
"This," the second uncle frowned and thought, "It seems that there is no. After your grandfather passed away, your second uncle's temper changed a lot. After living in the ancestral home for a while, he left."
I nodded in disappointment, and just wanted to get up and leave to find a place to calm down.
Suddenly, my second uncle grabbed me, "Hey! By the way, I remembered it. It's really a strange thing when you say that."
"What is it!" I hurriedly sat down again.
The second uncle leaned into my ear and whispered: "Two days before your second uncle left, he had lived in the Zhuo family's cemetery for two days!"
"Ah?" I couldn't believe that although the second uncle was fighting back, it was impossible for him to even collapse his own tomb!
The second uncle said in a more mysterious way: "Only I know about this, I didn't say anything to anyone!"
I looked at my second uncle with a drunken look and thought to myself that this old man might be drunk too much. Let me make up a story about to rob the tomb. However, our lineage in the Zhuo family is the secret of the successor of Faqiu, and the other Zhuo family members did not know it. So I asked, "Second uncle, how did you see it?"
The second uncle sighed, "I am born with weak gastrointestinal function, and I have chronic enteritis for many years. The older I am, the less I sleep. The more I don't sleep, the more I want to go to the toilet. It happened that my house was flipped and the toilet was demolished. I could only go to the toilet at the village entrance in the middle of the night. You know that things like chronic enteritis are pulled out..."
I couldn't stand it anymore, so I could bear it even when I was nagging before. After all, I was old, but later I had to describe the details of the shit. I really couldn't listen anymore. I grabbed the wine glass and handed it to my second uncle's mouth, "Hey! Hey! Second uncle, drink a little wine and moisten my throat."
When my second uncle took the wine glass, I quickly asked, "Second uncle, did you see my second uncle at that time?" I wanted to skip this topic and enter the main content.
The second uncle swallowed the wine calmly and continued, "I'm suffering from chronic enteritis..."
I suddenly felt despair in my heart, and I couldn't escape it, right? I heard my second uncle continue, "I have been suffering from chronic enteritis for a long time..." I immediately breathed a sigh of relief and continued to listen, "It's already midnight after I came out of the toilet. I accidentally saw a flashlight flash on the way into the mountain. At the beginning, I didn't care, thinking maybe I was dizzy and misread. But I thought about it again, maybe it wasn't. You know, because of the building of my house, Old Li, next door, said that I occupied a foot of his homestead and asked me to build it again. Can I listen to you? Whoever dares to stop me, I will swing him with a stick..."
I resisted the resentment that could not hold back my head and insisted on listening. My second uncle continued, "This old head Li actually threatened to demolish my ancestral tomb! So I saw the flashlight entering the mountain, and thought to myself that this old boy would not really go to our ancestral tomb in the mountains, right? So I followed him, and I followed him all the way to the cemetery. With the moonlight, I saw clearly that the man was your second uncle, kneeling on the ground and burning incense to your grandfather. I was a little surprised at that time. I never worshiped someone at night. I wanted to ask, but I thought about it.
I thought I couldn't bear to disturb you. And I was not an outsider. I went down the mountain with confidence. It was not until the next day when I got up early that I saw your second uncle coming down from the mountain. That night, your second uncle should have gone again. Although I don't know when he went up, another day passed. When I went out in the morning, I saw your second uncle coming down from the mountain again. So I guess he stayed in the cemetery for two days, and then, your second uncle left here and went to the pharmacy in the city."
After listening to my second uncle's words, I found it difficult to understand my second uncle's behavior. Even if he wanted to pay tribute to his grandfather, it should not be like this. Anyone does anything with a purpose, and the second uncle does this is no exception. Moreover, the second uncle can deceive the older second uncle, but cannot deceive me. With my understanding of the second uncle, he must have discovered the second uncle who was following him early and kneeling down to worship his grandfather, which must be just a trick to see the second uncle. His real purpose must be to wait until the second uncle leaves, but what exactly is it?
I didn't expect that I would find so many strange things when I came back this time. Is there any secret behind the Zhuo family that I have no idea? I decided to investigate first, and start with the caucus of the ancestral home that I discovered today!
After the ancestor worship activities were completely over, my father planned to go back, but I couldn't leave, so I made an appointment with a few brothers from my family. We met once a year and were very happy when we met. We made an appointment to go out to play in the afternoon and evening. Since my father saw that I had an appointment, he stopped forcing me to go back. After telling me to be careful, he took the bus home by himself.
After dinner, two brothers living in the same village invited me to stay at their home at night. I told me that there was something to do during the day and I had to rush back. I was thinking about the secret room and wanted to get out as soon as possible, so I was very determined. They couldn't persuade me, so I had to take me a car to take me home. The county town where my hometown is located is about forty minutes away from the city where I live. Speaking of which, the transportation is convenient now, and it is not very troublesome to go back and forth.
