God vs. Lone Star, you and I are a pair

Chen Li led them down the hillside, listening to the story told by the gentle middle-aged woman in front of him. Zhou Jingyan followed behind and was dumbfounded. It turned out that the master, who had never spoken much, was panicking without changing his expression.

"This is my uncle and my niece. I was sorting out old things at home some time ago and found a diary written by my grandfather and narrated by his mother."

"My great-grandmother has no name. She lived here before 1922, but something happened here that I don't want to remember until her death. The Japanese army passed by and massacred the village."

Chen Li was a local and lived not far away. In addition, his main work in the past two years was related to Xiaolin Village, so he was naturally familiar with this period of history. When he heard what the other party said, he subconsciously believed it.

"That night, my grandma was alone at home. She was very scared, so she ran to the mountains and escaped by accident. When she went down the mountain the next day, she saw that all the people were dead. She was very scared and tidied up. The solid food went all the way north, and later we got married in City C. I never returned to City C in my life, and I didn’t even want to mention it. It wasn’t until shortly before his death that I told my grandfather about this past incident. And I hope she can help fulfill her last wish."

"What is your last wish?" Chen Li asked as he walked.

"She said that she was actually not only my grandfather's child, but also had two daughters before him."

"Oh? Really?" Chen Li knew that most of the people were gone, but it was inconvenient to ask directly.

"They did not die that night, but died before. She said that girls are not liked here. She gave birth to two daughters before they were one month old, and they were taken away and thrown into the baby tower. At that time, the family She was told that the child had died and she had never seen them for the last time, but when she was about to die, she often dreamed of them and hoped that my grandfather could take them out of the baby tower and bury them properly."

Chen Li is a local, so he naturally knows this bad habit. There are similar places in this place. Some are towers, some are pits, and some are wells. Sick children or unwanted daughters will be thrown into them.

He sighed, "But after so many years, where can I find it?"

"We also know that my grandfather failed to help her fulfill her last wish due to various reasons and passed away hastily. Decades later, I realized that if I don't do something, I will feel uneasy. Even a stick of incense will not help her. good."

"Okay, let me find out for you. This is our Mr. Su."

Su Lichen looked at the plainly dressed woman walking behind and felt that she was familiar. He looked carefully. Isn't this the daughter-in-law of the second young master of the Shen family? Why are you here? Did the two of them break up?

"Mrs. Shen?" He asked tentatively.

Zhou Jingyan was thinking about the direction in his mind all the way, while listening to the master's nonsense. He felt funny. He was called Mrs. Shen out of the blue, and he didn't react at all.

"Hey, Mr. Su, you guys know each other." Chen Li didn't expect that he was an acquaintance of Mr. Su.

Xuan Yuan, who was walking behind Zhou Jingyan, gently poked her in the back. Only then did she come back to her senses and see a familiar-looking man in front of her.

"Ah, hello, Mr. Su." Su Lichen's eyes turned cold. When Shen Xiujie pushed this woman into the water, he saved her and had dinner with her several times. Although he planned to hook up with her, he was clearly rejected. , but judging from her expression, it was obvious that she didn't think of his name, which was a bit too much.

"Why are you here, brother Xiuyun?" Su Lichen asked tentatively as the Shen family and the Su family were somewhat related.

"He is in City C. I am here with the elders in my family. I have something to do." She recalled Shen Xiuyun's words: Don't lie when facing smart people, because it may be self-defeating. She followed Shen Xiuyun and frequently appeared at the Shen family's grand occasions, and she was the younger sister of Zhou Jingxing, the leader of the Du family. Even if the media couldn't dig up her past, these famous families might not have inquired about her.

"This is my master, this is my uncle." He said he was a relative, and he could verify it with just a phone call.

Su Lichen's face looked better. He had indeed asked someone to check Zhou Jingyan before and was very surprised that she had been staying in a Taoist temple for almost 20 years. After all, in this era, he was willing to leave his daughter behind and go to the mountains to endure hardships for so many years. I've only heard of this one. When Zhou Jingyan's father wanted to establish relations with the Su family and do business, he even met him in person, just to see how weird her father really was.

He nodded to the two elders behind him, and Chen Li repeated the story in his ears.

"You two don't have to be polite. Ms. Zhou and I are friends. If you have any requests, as long as we can fulfill them, we are obliged to do so. As long as they are not out of line, just mention them to Chen Li." Su Lichen said goodbye politely and went about other things. .
