Chapter 73 Strange Words
I thought about it, "I did think so, but I don't understand what the meaning of my second uncle doing this?"
Yuanxiao pondered for a moment, "I can't say this well, maybe it's related to your second uncle's disappearance."
I nodded, "This is very likely, but why should I be so secretive? Isn't it better to leave a message to me?"
Yuanxiao shook his head, "Just from the current situation, the complexity of this matter is unimaginable. In the current form, except for the current unclear attitude of the Nie family, the other three families have close ties to this matter. Therefore, the situation is chaotic, and you must be very cautious at this time, so your second uncle will use this method."
What Yuanxiao said sounds very reasonable. The game left by Uncle Er contains the technique of stargazing and maritime control. Uncle Er left a message to ask Anaduo to find me to take over the management of the industry here. In this way, I will come to his company and enter the office, and may find the clues he left behind.
But I think the second uncle's approach is a bit risky. If I don't find the clues about him staying in the office, what should I do if I don't find the last point of the Golden Dragon Claw Pattern? In this case, won't the second uncle's plan be ruined?
Looking back now, Uncle Er is a cautious person. He thinks about things three times before and after. He doesn't do anything completely, and I will not act rashly. I suddenly feel that this is not like Uncle Er's usual style of acting.
I told Yuanxiao what I thought. Yuanxiao thought about it and said to me: "If your second uncle leaves these clues, if you can't find it, it means you are not the material and you can't count on you for the rest of the matter. It's hard for you to deal with some things that may be difficult for you to deal with. I think with your second uncle's mind, he will definitely have a backup plan."
"What do you mean is that this time, I hope I can help him?" I think the second uncle has been hiding something from me, but I didn't expect that he would leave me a clue this time.
But I still think something is wrong. Even if my second uncle wants to test me with this, it will be too difficult. We almost lost our lives. My second uncle is too cruel to me. Could it be that my second uncle is not enough about the difficulty of the route? This shouldn't be it!
I said to Yuanxiao: "I always feel that my second uncle is not willing to let me participate in this matter."
Yuanxiao said: "It's nothing strange. I think your second uncle didn't want you to participate in it at the beginning."
I asked him, "Why do you say that?"
Yuanxiao shrugged, "Isn't this obvious? Your second uncle established an industry here, maybe to make money, but it should be based on this to carry out investigations related to that strange symbol or that mysterious nation. And these have already started several years ago, and you don't know about these. So I said, your second uncle wanted to hide it from you at the beginning."
I nodded, and Lantern Festival continued, "As for the situation that changed later, you were dragged down and participated in it, so your second uncle's attitude was also changing. I guess he might also realize that it is unlikely that he would want you to be completely out of the matter after the incident in Qilian Mountains."
After Yuanxiao said this, I recalled it and it seemed that it was true. Before the Qilian Mountains incident, I had no idea what the tide was. After that experience in Qilian Mountains, a series of things such as the ancient tomb of the island, the ancient state of Shanhuan, etc. followed one after another.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but think of the question that I had thought about countless times: what role do I play and what role do I play in this series of events? And why did Tang Handong get me involved in the Qilian Mountains at the beginning?
I subconsciously looked at Lantern Festival. Lantern Festival seemed to notice what I was thinking, and her expression immediately became a little embarrassed. "Zhuoran, in fact, I really didn't know what my father and the others were going to do in the first place. It was not until later that I gradually felt that something was wrong, but I didn't know how to tell you..."
I immediately waved my hand to Lantern Festival, "I don't mean that. You don't need to explain the matter in Qilianshan anymore. I won't blame you anymore. I don't want this to become a estrangement between our brothers. Do you understand?"
Yuanxiao pursed her lips and nodded heavily. Then I continued, "Actually, I do have a question about Qilian Mountain today."
Yuanxiao immediately said, "You ask, as long as I know, I will tell you."
I thought about it and said, "Have your father said at the beginning why I must involve me?"
After hearing my question, Yuanxiao frowned and thought for a while, saying, "About this, I have always been curious about it, hey! By the way, before I went, I accidentally heard my dad say something very strange! I still can't understand it, and I always feel that I have heard it wrong."
I was immediately shocked and asked quickly, "What's the matter?"
Yuanxiao looked at me, then said word by word: "Zhuoran is just a pitiful sign!"
"I'm a logo?" I was stunned when I heard this, "Why am I a logo?" I grabbed Lantern Festival, "Are you sure you heard it right?"
Yuanxiao hesitated for a moment and said, "Zhuoran, don't be excited first. The day I heard this, I came back from the bar in the middle of the night. I was afraid of being scolded, so I went outside the window of my dad's bedroom before opening the door to see if he had slept. But I didn't expect to hear such a sentence. Maybe I heard it wrong when I drank too much at that time, so don't care too much."
I let go of Lantern Festival and nodded, "It's okay, I've experienced so many strange things during this period and I've gotten used to it."
Yuanxiao patted me, "Since your second uncle has left these two things, he must have his necessary purpose. Let's start with these two things and maybe we can find your second uncle's whereabouts."
"I can only do this first!" As I said that, I took out the ring and the photo from my bag. But what does these two things mean?
At this time, Yuanxiao stood up and said, "Okay, let's have enough rest. Let's go down the mountain quickly at dawn. I don't want to encounter ghosts and hit the wall again!"
So we packed things and walked down the mountain road. With the horrific experience of last night, we deliberately bypassed the cemetery so as not to encounter any unexpected things again.
We walked to the foot of the mountain in one breath, and at the pass, we met the old man we met before entering the mountain yesterday.
When the old man saw us walking down, he couldn't help but take a few more glances, but when he saw the two of us in a mess, he stood up and looked at us in horror.
