Hidden evil

Before Wu Xie and Zhang Qiling were going to Shanghai, they called Wang Meng to pick them up. After returning to his place, he wanted to see what kind of trouble those people could make. As long as he dared to do something, Wu Xie promised to keep anyone who came. There is no need to go back.On the other hand, Wu Xie was also very excited. The sudden appearance of those people and their relentless pursuit showed that what he got was very important, and his persistence over the years was not in vain.

After getting off the train, Wu Xie and Zhang Qiling went straight to the outside of the station. Wang Meng had already brought a group of people to wait outside, but Wu Xie was not moved at all, because this scene looked like gangster boys picking up their boss at the gate of the prison. The look of prison.

"Boss, are you okay?"

"Third Master."

Wang Meng and the six sons came over, Wu Xie pointed to the person behind them with a cigarette in his mouth and asked

"Are you two bringing someone to pick me up from prison? I'm afraid that others don't know I'm here?"

"Grandpa, the second master is here. We are waiting for you at home. How about we take you back safely, let alone the prison, we will go directly to the crematorium."

Wang Meng led Wu Xie and Zhang Qiling to the convoy, and he whispered in Wu Xie's ear. When Wu Xie heard that his second uncle had come again, he thought that his trip to Golmud must have been discovered. pulled out the smoke from his mouth and asked

"Did he say anything?"

"The second master got angry and said that if you made such a big commotion, it would be very dangerous if those few joined forces to deal with it. Also, he heard that you went to Golmud, as if you were going to eat people."

Several people were talking and had already arrived in front of the car. After getting in the car, Wu Xie ordered Wang Meng to say:

"Immediately ask people to go to Xie Dahua to get those goods back, and then find someone to distribute them to the market here. If there is such a big commotion this time, if there are not a lot of good things, people will inevitably be suspicious. Still Yes, those tails... pinched them for me, and the movements were a little cleaner, because the things that came out this time were too difficult to handle, and I did it because I was afraid that it would be troublesome if they were caught by the police. Also, I touched them last time. The information about the jade seal that came out also found a way to reveal it, driving those grandchildren completely crazy."

"Third Master! Didn't you say you kept the jade seal? We paid a lot of money to bring it out at that time, why did you expose it?"

The six sons who were driving couldn't sit still when they heard that Wu Xie was going to hand over the jade seal they found out from a large tomb a few years ago. That tomb seemed to belong to the emperor of a small country before the Tang Dynasty, and the jade seal was a national treasure. Things, Wu Xie looked at it with a heartbeat, so he resisted the sky-high price and kept the jade seal for his own collection. As a result, he actually wanted to sell the jade seal right now.Wang Meng also looked at Wu Xie suspiciously. At the beginning, someone offered a sky-high price for the jade seal, and Wu Xie was not willing to give it up. Why did he suddenly give up the item?

"If I don't bring out some real things, those few are veterans in this field, and they will never go easy. I'm not afraid that they will find out what I'm secretly investigating. I'm afraid that the news will leak out and be asked It will be troublesome if the investigator finds out. At that time, it will be said that the tomb owner of the tomb we touched this time killed the master of the jade seal, and was buried with the jade seal passed down by others. We found it out. It is a national treasure. , It’s still the jade seal of the king of a country. I can’t help it. But if you want something from me, you don’t have to bleed. If you don’t cut off my hands and feet, no one can take this jade seal away. Wang Meng, You and the six sons are in charge of stirring up the matter, and then release the news that I was injured in the fight this time, and I will not move for a short time. This news should be kept secret, and only a few people will know. I will not show up easily, then A group of old miscellaneous people will make a move without thinking, after working for so long, we should make a fortune, and with the help of Yuxi, our goods can be multiplied several times."

After hearing Wu Xie's words, Wang Meng and the six sons were about to stare at gold coins. Wang Meng swallowed hard and flattered Wu Xie.

"Boss! It would be too bad for you if you don't do business! You are just that... the God of Wealth descends to earth!"

"Yes! Third Master! You want those group of half-legged people to jump out of the coffin! A national treasure-level jade seal! You are the only one who is willing to do so!"

"Don't talk to me! So you two hurry up and find someone to go to Xie Dahua and get the things back for me! Don't be hacked by him again, and bring back Master Zhang's knife!"

At the end, Wu Xie suddenly remembered that Zhang Qiling's ancient black gold knife was still in Xie Yuchen's possession, and that thing was more valuable than jade seals.Hearing Wu Xie talk about the batch of goods and Zhang Qiling's knife, Wang Meng became even more energetic.

"Boss, Mr. Hua has sent someone back in advance, and Mr. Zhang's knife has also been sent back. I will lock you in your room and send someone to watch it! I will process the things in batches and send them out when I get back. Master! Otherwise, we will learn from the auction you mentioned earlier in Beijing! Let’s hold an auction!"

The more Wang Meng said, the more excited he became, and the saliva was about to spray Wu Xie's face. Wu Xie slapped Wang Meng's face away and cursed angrily.

"That's in Beijing! It's the capital! Anyone behind the auction can crush you like an ant! The auction is still here, and we're all in the bureau for a meeting before you send out the news!"

Wang Meng's excited expression disappeared immediately, but he immediately became excited again when he thought of making a lot of money.Wu Xie lit a cigarette again and asked Wang Meng

"Why is Xie Dahua so forthright this time? He didn't secretly keep something from my batch, did he?"

"I checked, everything is in order, nothing missing. Master Hua seems to be injured. When the six sons went to pick up the goods in person, Master Hua didn't show up. He just sent a few brothers to help."

"Injured? How did you get hurt? I didn't hear him take any action. Liu Zi, why didn't you inquire about it? What's going on?"

Hearing Wu Xie's question, the six sons glanced at Wu Xie from the rearview mirror and said blankly

"Actually, I don't know. You and Brother Wang left at that time. I thought I would follow Master Zhang to bring the goods back to Hangzhou, but Master Hua called me later and said that Master Zhang had also left with you. He sent some A brother escorted me to get the goods back. When I went to pick up the goods, Mr. Hua did not come, only the black man next to him came. He carried Mr. Zhang’s knife and helped to load the things into the car. Li Shun was asking Master Hei if Master Hua'er was better, Master Hei said it was nothing, just rest for a few days and he would be fine. But when Master Hua'er called me, I couldn't tell what was wrong with him. "

After finishing speaking, the six sons were even more at a loss. Xie Yuchen was very skilled, and he had a master like Heiyan beside him. Under normal circumstances, he would not be injured, and he hadn't heard of them making any big moves.After listening to Liu Zi's words, Wu Xie frowned. He was worried that Xie Yuchen had discovered something, and he was dealing with it in private, so he was injured.Thinking of this, Wu Xie dialed Yuchen's phone number.

"Hello, have you returned to Hangzhou?"

"Well, just came back from there."

"Did you find anything?"

"I don't know yet. I'll let you know when I'm done. By the way, are you injured? How did you get hurt? Is it serious?"

"Injured? I'm not injured."

"Six said, I heard the blind man tell Li Shun that you'll be fine after a few more days of rest, are you uncomfortable?"

"..."

Xie Yuchen on the other end of the phone was silent, and Wu Xie was about to ask Xie Yuchen if he was too tired and unwell, but a scream came from the other side of the phone, so frightened that Wu Xie almost lost his phone.

"Hello? Hello? Xiaohua? Xiaohua? Are you okay? What's wrong?"

"……fine."

It took a while for Xie Yuchen's voice to reappear on the phone, his tone was very calm, but it sounded like he was suppressing something.

"What happened just now, who is screaming?"

"It's okay, a guy hit the door. I'm just a little tired, so I rested at home for a few days. There is no danger for you to go to Golmud, right?"

Wu Xie rolled his eyes in doubt, Xie Yuchen's men were very steady, how could they bump into some door panel for no reason, but he didn't think much about it.

"The chessboard is activated."

"Okay, I see, you pay attention to safety."

"You also pay attention to safety."

After hanging up the phone, Wu Xie, who was going to see Xie Yuchen after dealing with the matter here, remembered something again. He patted Wang Meng on the shoulder and asked

"You just said, what happened when my second uncle heard that I went to Golmud?"

"Second Master heard that you went to Golmud, and his face turned dark immediately. Master, I think you should explain honestly when you see what Second Master has in store later."

"Shut up, I know what to say."

Wu Xie slapped Wang Meng's face aside again. It seems that Golmud really has some great things or information, otherwise his second uncle would not have such a big reaction after hearing that he went to Golmud. He must know something that he doesn't know.Zhang Qiling sat next to Wu Xie and looked out of the window with a look of indifference, tapping the cushion regularly with his slender index and middle fingers.

Back home, Wu Erbai was still sitting in the living room waiting for Wu Xie. Seeing Wu Xie come back, his expression didn't change much, he just looked at Wu Xie in a low voice.Wang Meng and the six sons cleverly slipped away before entering the hall, only Zhang Qiling and Wu Xie entered the hall together, Wu Xie sat opposite Wu Erbai, and Zhang Qiling sat next to Wu Xie.

"Second uncle."

"came back?"

"Ah."

"You made such a big commotion this time, what is in that tomb? Also, what did you go to Golmud for?"

"There is a jade seal from a small country in the Tang Dynasty inside."

"With just one jade seal, you can make all the people who can go to the ground in Hangzhou move? You are such a big man, and you don't care about things at all. What if someone stabs you in the back with a black knife? What are you doing in Golmud? ?”

Wu Erbai still asked why Wu Xie went to Golmud. Wu Xie knew that his second uncle was not so easy to fool, but he had just got the notebook, so he had to read it first, otherwise based on Wu Erbai's current reaction, he would definitely He also knew a lot of things that he didn't know, if he didn't let him read the notebook, it would be a waste of all his troubles.Just when Wu Xie was thinking about the reason, Zhang Qiling suddenly said to Wu Erbai

"I went with him, nothing happened."

Neither Wu Erbai nor Wu Xie expected that Zhang Qiling would speak. Wu Xie took a knowing look at Zhang Qiling, knowing that he was covering for himself, but Wu Erbai didn't know what he was thinking. Zhang Qiling took the initiative to say that he was accompanying Wu Erbai. Xie went, he subconsciously thought that Zhang Qiling took Wu Xie there.

"Brother Zhang, you are just a bodyguard invited by our Wu family. Your duty is to protect Wu Xie's safety. You don't need to help him or take him to do things that are not in harmony with his identity. Wu Xie is now the head of the Wu family. It is not suitable to be compared with you masters on the road, if you can't do this, you'd better find another one."

"okay!"

Wu Erbai's rude words made Wu Xie who was sitting on the side angry. He stood up abruptly and threw away the cigarette in his hand and said to Wu Erbai irritably

"Second Uncle! I just went to Golmud. It's not a big deal, and it's none of his business. What are you doing with such an attitude of asking questions! He is mine, and I have the final say on how to deal with it! Who Don't even try to touch him! I'm the head of the Wu family now! I know what I want to do! I won't just forget about the third uncle. Whether he is dead or alive, I have to find him back! "

After Wu Xie finished speaking, Wu Xie turned around and left the hall. Wu Erbai was choked by Wu Xie and was speechless for a while, while Zhang Qiling looked at Wu Erbai expressionlessly and left the hall without saying anything.Wu Erbai stood alone in the empty hall, with veins twitching on his forehead, inexplicably regretting letting Zhang Qiling come back.Why did Wu Xie still become irrelevant when he met him? Since he took over Wu Sansheng's seat ten years ago, he has never lost his temper like today, but it was just because he said a few words to Zhang Qiling, Wu Xie Actually getting angry, Wu Erbai felt a little panicked inexplicably.When Zhang Qiling went out with him, he found that Wu Xie didn't go back to his room, but went to the yard.

Wu Xie lived in Wu Sansheng's house back then, and it was expanded later. This yard was also built later. There was an iron gate in the innermost part of the yard, which was always closed. After Zhang Qiling came, Wu Xie never opened it.Wu Xie was walking towards that door right now, and Zhang Qiling followed behind him, but he didn't say anything, it seemed that he allowed Zhang Qiling to follow.

To Zhang Qiling's surprise, the door was unlocked, and Wu Xie pushed it straight in. There was only a small open space inside. There were a few potted plants that had withered and rotted for a long time by the wall. Wu Xie walked to the middle of the open space, There was a secret door there, and he lifted the handle on the secret door to open it, revealing a concrete staircase below. The cement was very new, and it looked like it hadn't been repaired for a few years.Wu Xie glanced at Zhang Qiling who was following him and still didn't say anything, and walked down the stairs directly. Zhang Qiling looked up at the surrounding environment and followed Wu Xie down.

The stairs were not very long, and they reached the end after walking for a while. Wu Xie stood at the end of the stairs and groped on the wall. A faint light appeared, and Zhang Qiling saw a small room at the end of the stairs. Reinforced with steel bars, the rainwater flowing in from the secret door in rainy days will flow away from the bottom along the shelf.There are several bookshelves on the shelf, a bed and a table, and there is a computer and a video recorder on the table.These things are already very old, but the dust doesn't look too thick. It seems that someone comes in to clean them regularly.

Wu Xie took out a cigarette, lit it, and sat on the last step to smoke. Zhang Qiling stood silently behind Wu Xie. The two remained silent until Wu Xie's feet were covered with cigarette butts. When he lit a cigarette again, Zhang Qiling sat next to Wu Xie, Wu Xie turned to look at Zhang Qiling.

"My third uncle, or Xiaohua's father, used to live here. He was as dark as a mouse. It was all for some of their so-called secrets. I know that a person who is too obsessed with something has nothing to do with him. Secrets that can even bring danger are stupid, but as my third uncle said back then, once you come in, you can't get out."

After sucking half of the cigarette in one puff, Wu Xie lit another one.

"In the past ten years, I actually don't know what I'm doing. Digging people's ancestral graves to make money, I've made almost the same amount. After tracking down the news I want, I know a little bit of it. Back then, my third uncle that The old fox is gone, and I'm the only one who can take over his mess. Actually, I don't have to worry about it, anyway, our Wu family doesn't make a living by this craft, and we have long wanted to get out of it. But I can't pretend that I don't Concerned about that dead old man, whether he is alive or dead, I must find him."

Zhang Qiling watched Wu Xie smoking one cigarette after another, not knowing why he suddenly said these things to himself, so he could only sit quietly beside Wu Xie and watch him.

"Brother, do you know? I feel like I have amnesia too. I can't remember when I took over my third uncle's business, and the links between many things are very abrupt, as if something is missing in the middle But I went to the hospital for an examination, and my body is normal. The doctor said that it may be because I have been in the depressive environment underground for a long time, and my spirit is highly stressed, which caused my nervous breakdown. That's why I can't remember some things clearly. , and as we grow older, it is indeed impossible for people to remember all the previous things, and the brain will automatically clear some things that are not very impressive. It’s like I don’t even remember whether I ate carrots or white rice at noon when I was in kindergarten. Carrots, but I remember that my third uncle would buy me candied haws when I was out of school. But I always feel that this is not the case. The things I can’t remember always feel that they are the most important in the whole incident. That's what I said."

Zhang Qiling's brows covered by bangs frowned slightly, and his slender index finger and middle finger unconsciously rubbed back and forth on the edges and corners of the steps.

"For example, when we were in Golmud, I remember the first time I saw the black glasses, he jumped out of the coffin hole, which scared me a lot, but I was chased by the forbidden woman Huo Ling, I don't fucking run out, what am I doing standing next to the coffin!"

Wu Xie threw the newly lit cigarette heavily on the ground, Zhang Qiling suddenly moved his right hand, as if he wanted to pat Wu Xie on the shoulder, but in the end he didn't move.Wu Xie lit a cigarette for herself again.

"Ten years ago, when everything was over, I ran to Changbai Mountain alone and was injured. It was my second uncle who rescued me. After that, I felt that my memory was not very good. I can't remember something, but that doesn't affect my whole memory, I still know what I should do, what I need to do... Brother, I'm sorry, I shouldn't say this in front of you, your situation seems to be worse than mine. worse."

Wu Xie turned her head and looked at Zhang Qiling with a wry smile. This could only be regarded as a memory deficit, just like someone forgetting what they had for lunch the day before yesterday, and it didn't affect him much.But Zhang Qiling was different. Zhang Qiling was a critically ill patient who couldn't remember anything except his own name.It's not good for Wu Xie to keep saying these things in front of others to poke other people's pain.

"Brother, go back and rest first, I still want to sit here. Don't worry about what my second uncle said."

Zhang Qiling looked up at Wu Xie and stood up, but he didn't leave after going out through the secret door, but sat on the open space and waited for Wu Xie.
