Chapter 10 Chapter Nine Who is the "Second Child"?

I looked at Bai Su for a moment: "Firstly, he is old. Secondly, he is pulling Hong Ling to do things together, so I am always a little worried!" My last sentence touched Bai Su's heart, she pondered for a while: "Let's continue to follow!" I still mean the same thing: "We take turns to protect and observe in secret. It won't hurt - I think the old man will take action tonight!" Bai Su was surprised: "How can you see that?" I said: "In the restaurant at noon, Huang Laosi just handed over a small piece of paper and had no chance to talk to anyone. The piece of paper is most likely the time and place of the appointment. With the current status of 'Chen Anan', he can freely The time for activities is just the silence of the night!"

Bai Su nodded again and again: "Will you act with Hong Ling?" I nodded: "It's very possible!" Bai Su was a little sad: "Hong Ling didn't tell us?" I laughed: "I have a secret agreement with my mother's father, and I don't tell my parents. This is a normal childhood behavior, very common." Bai Su had no choice but to accept the fact, and I said, "I'm still in charge tonight!" Bai Su had no objection, but said, "I didn't listen to Dad's analysis—why did the errand do this back then?" I have been thinking about this issue for a long time, but have made no progress.I said, "Are you afraid that there will be no chance to discuss it?"

We also went upstairs, Hong Ling was already asleep during these few words, her complexion was rosy, her breathing was even, and there were some beads of sweat, Bai Su gently wiped it off for her. Although Bai Su and I didn't make a sound, we were both extremely emotional, because what happened to Hong Ling was so unpredictable. In such a short period of time, there have been so many changes. There will be no new changes in the days to come! We looked at Hong Ling for a while, Bai Su made a gesture to me, and I quietly backed out, but she pushed open the door of the study room, and after I went in, she closed the door behind her back and leaned against me. On his body, this movement was extremely gentle, which made me feel warm in my heart.But she went on to say a word, but I was shocked.

She said, "This child is pretending to be asleep!" I was stunned for a moment, and Bai Su said again: "She doesn't know how to cheat, she doesn't know that when a person is sleeping soundly, the length of his breath is fixed, so pretending to sleep is necessary to control breath, she doesn't understand!" I had already made up my mind, and said first: "Don't teach her, otherwise, if she pretends to be asleep, she will deceive us. Don't be nervous, it must be an old and a young, and there will be special operations tonight. , I have to go get ready."

I had already expected that Boss Bai would act tonight, and I also expected that there might be some kind of tacit understanding between Hong Ling and him—Hong Ling was pretending to be asleep, so she naturally wanted to get rid of us and act. Bai Su was still a little annoyed, but in a flash, she couldn't help laughing again: "The old ones are more naughty than the young ones, what should we do?" I said, "I'll go get ready as soon as possible, and then we'll pretend to be asleep to make it easier for them to do things." Bai Su was furious and funny at the same time: "The whole family wants to live a life of intrigue, I really don't know where to start."

But I found it interesting, pushed Bai Su into the bedroom, went to the study to do some make-up, and brought some necessities for "night travel", and also entered the bedroom. We left the door ajar and could not sleep or make a sound. After at least two hours, I seemed to be really falling asleep, only to see the door was quietly pushed open, Hong Ling poked her head in, and opened her eyes ghostly, her eyes, even in the dark, looked , is also very bright. Then, she still left the door open, and retreated. There was really no sound between her actions. As soon as she retreated, I jumped up and pointed to the window. In less than ten seconds, I had jumped out of the window and left the room.

As I acted quickly, I seemed to hear Bai Su let out a low sigh - she was naturally not very satisfied with this situation.But her gray-haired old father, her husband who has been married for many years, and her daughter who has survived a hundred calamities all like this, so what can she do?Naturally, he had no choice but to sigh. After leaving the house and turning around the corner, I saw a car parked at the intersection. Although the lights were off, there were clearly people in the car. At that time, Boss Bai and Hong Ling were probably still walking down the stairs cautiously, or they would open the door without making any noise.

I checked the time, it was two in the morning, and I had the upper hand to follow them. It's been a long time since I've done anything like this, and it's amused even to myself.I took advantage of the cover of the trees on the side of the road, and soon arrived not far from the car. At this time, I could already see clearly that the driver in that car was a fat man, who was exactly the same old woman I had seen in the restaurant.And the one sitting in the back seat is Cui Sanniang—now she can be called "the third mother-in-law". Of course they were waiting for Boss Bai. I was about five meters away from the car and waved twice.Not to greet them, of course, but when I waved for the first time, I attached a tracker that emits radio waves to the car, so that I could follow them comfortably.

The second waving required great skill. I stuck a highly sensitive bug to the glass of the rear window of the car.This kind of bug can capture extremely weak sound waves, and is so sensitive that even a damselfly flapping its wings will be recorded, let alone someone talking in the car. After I finished these two things, Boss Bai and Hong Ling also came to the side of the car. When Boss Bai opened the car door, I heard Cui Sanniang say in a low voice: "Why did you bring the little girl?" Boss Bai's answer was: "Take her to see and see—in fact, she knows more than you and I combined!"

Of course Cui Sanniang didn't believe it, she let out a sneer. Boss Bai sat next to Hua Lao Wu himself, and ordered Hong Ling to sit next to Cui Sanniang. I heard him order: "Son, tell Granny Cui about your experience, just keep it simple." When I heard Boss Bai's order, I couldn't help frowning—the old man is true, Hong Ling was raised by monkeys, and she used to be a savage, so what is there to say to everyone? But Hong Ling didn't seem to care, she agreed heartily, and then briefly explained. So, when I got in the car, turned on the equipment, determined their whereabouts, and the bug was working, Hong Ling was still narrating her experience, but it was at the end, talking about seeing her mother's mother What happened afterwards is to prove Boss Bai's evaluation of her just now.

After she finished speaking, there was a long silence, and it was Cui Sanniang's voice, her voice trembling: "In this way, people really have the way of immortality, the way of immortality..." When people are old, what they hope most is to be as far away from death as possible. Cui Sanniang's reaction is very normal. But Boss Bai's answer made her very discouraged: "No one is immortal, and anyone who can be immortal is no longer a human being!" Cui Sanniang's breathing was clearly audible, and Boss Bai said again: "That's not something that everyone can have such an opportunity. Let's work hard to find out what happens after we die, and be more realistic." Boss Bai's words were shocking, and really shocked me.For a moment, it was hard to tell whether Boss Bai was talking angry or telling the truth. If he really wanted to find out what happened to a person after death, wouldn't he have to go to the underworld. After Boss Bai spoke, there was another silence, and it was Hua Wu's voice, who still had a "Dan accent" when he spoke, and his voice was soft: "If you want to talk about things that will happen after a hundred years, fourth brother should It is clearest—he is already dead, but he can still be active in the mortal world.” Boss Bai and Sanniang Cui snorted together, which clearly indicated that although they were dissatisfied with Boss Huang, they also agreed with Hua Wu's statement. At that time, my car kept a certain distance from them and would not be noticed by them.But I can clearly hear their conversation. Cui Sanniang suddenly laughed again: "Lao Huang has become a little girl now, in my opinion, she might as well be a ghost!" Hua Wu sighed: "Although I have always believed in ghosts, but an acquaintance, after death, a ghost got on the body of a little girl. Such a thing, once it comes to an end, is scary enough." Cui Sanniang asked again: "Your whole appearance has changed, how could he still recognize you?" Hua Wudao: "Did you forget that I have thorns on my arm? A lotus flower, the symbol of the Kintori Gang, will never fade for life. That time, she was brought to the restaurant by someone, and he saw it. She looked up. When the head said those few words to me, I almost passed out." Boss Bai sneered: "Even if someone recognizes it, it's not worth being so scared." Hua Wulian said: "Boss, it's a surprise...it's a surprise...a little girl suddenly said to me: 'I know you are from Jin Tubang, I asked you for a person, my old acquaintance, surnamed Hua , Mingdan, Xingwu, do you know his current whereabouts.' At that time, I opened my mouth wide and stared at her, almost falling out of my eyes. She said again: 'Don't make a fuss, answer my question.' ' Then I replied with more breath than breath: 'I...is Hua Dan, but who are you? How can you be an old acquaintance with me?'" The meeting between Hua Wu and "Chen An'an" was very interesting. When Hua Wu spoke in the car, there was still lingering fear in his voice, which shows how shocked he was at that time. At that time, when he stared at the little girl in front of him, the horror in his heart was indescribable, although he saw a look in the little girl's eyes that should not belong to a little girl, and he was a little familiar with it, but whatever he thought, He couldn't think of Huang Laosi either. And "Chen An'an" has already given him the answer: "I am your fourth brother, Huang Hao, Huang Lao Si." As soon as these words caught his ears, Hua Lao Wu's mouth opened even wider, and a terrible and weird sound came out of his throat.At this time, fortunately there was no one else around them, otherwise, I really don't know how they would react. Huang Lao Si also obviously knew the strangeness of his situation, so he said anxiously: "I was originally a lonely ghost, and I borrowed this body for the time being, in order to have a chance to meet you." Although Hua Wu was inexplicably shocked, after all, he has been in the world for a long time and has seen a lot. He immediately understood what was going on in Huang Lao Si's words, but for a while, he still couldn't make a sound, just nodded repeatedly, expressing that clear. Huang Laosi immediately asked: "Where is Boss Bai? The most important thing is to find him. After you have him, things will be easy." (When Hua Wu said this, Boss Bai let out a dry laugh: "I'm sure he can see it.") Only then did Hua Wu start to pant: "I don't know very well, I heard that he has already retired and lived in seclusion in France." Huang Laosi said anxiously: "Go to him, at least, send him a message, tell him my current situation, and then tell him, I know something about my second child, it's so strange, only he can...can..." Huang Lao Si was led away by Mrs. Chen before he could finish speaking, and Hua Wu slapped his head hard, as if he had a nightmare. He didn't immediately start looking for Boss Bai, because things were so strange that they were unreal. After more than half a month, "Chen An'an" appeared in the restaurant again and severely accused him of not looking for Boss Bai. Only then did he accept this weird fact, and tried everything possible to find Boss Bai's location, wrote a letter, and sent Seeing Huang Laosi's situation, he told Bai Boss. This is naturally the reason why Boss Bai suddenly appeared. I was thinking in my heart: Boss Bai is willing to come out of the mountain again, not because of Huang Laosi's weird status quo--for Boss Bai, he won't make a fuss about such things as "ghosts on his body". What can make him come out of the mountain again is probably related to Huang Laosi's saying that "he knows something about the second child". That "second child" was a mysterious figure among the five people they sworn. Even Bai Su didn't know who it was. Boss Bai had only told her that the second child was an official, and he was quite an official. That's all! And by "knowing some things about the second child", you can get Boss Bai to come out of the mountain. It can be seen that "some things about the second child" must be something that the boss Bai wanted to know a long time ago, which is related to the important secrets of the past. After pausing for a moment, Hua Wu said again: "The fourth child must have met the eldest brother before talking about the second child. I don't know why." When he said this, his expression might be a bit strange, so I heard Cui Sanniang's voice: "Why are you staring at me? I have to ask the boss." Boss Bai suddenly changed the subject: "Old Five, I also asked you about a member of the Jin Tubang." Hua Wuxiang was taken aback: "This... I haven't seen the gang members for a long time, I'm afraid I can't tell." Regardless of Hua Wu's prevarication, Boss Bai said, "This man, a few years ago, was a skinny old man—" What Boss Bai said next let me know that the skinny old man he inquired about was the old man I told him about who stole the weird box in the ancient wine conference. As Boss Bai talked all the way, I kept hearing weird human voices, which was Hua Wu's reaction after listening to Boss Bai's description.When Boss Bai finished talking, there was the sound of the car suddenly braking and Cui Sanniang scolding, and I immediately saw the car in front of me, and it stopped suddenly. I hurriedly took advantage of the darkness and parked the car on the side of the road. Boss Bai can also be heard scolding: "Old Wu, what's wrong with you, a mouse has crawled into your crotch?" Hua Wuyi was in a hurry, speaking with a Northeast accent (he grew up in South Korea, where most of the Chinese were from the Northeast), he was very surprised: "You...why did you ask this person? " Boss Bai said coldly: "Who is that person?" Hua Wu's voice was trembling: "Yes... I haven't asked for help for a long time, I really can't remember it for a while, wait for me... to inquire... Boss, you asked this person... why? " When I heard this, I laughed secretly in my heart, because Hua Wu's concealment skills were too clumsy.His reaction showed that he knew exactly who that person was, but he said he didn't know. And Boss Bai's answer also made me startled, he didn't even tell the truth, just said: "It's nothing, just ask casually." These two were sworn brothers sixty years ago. They reunited after a long absence, and they were so dishonest with each other. It coincided with the scene written in the poem "The White Prime Minister knows he still presses the sword". should be? At this time, the car in front continued to drive forward, and I followed. There was a long silence in the car, and then I heard Boss Bai ask again: "You should be more concerned about the second child, right?" I wasn't sure who Boss Bai was talking to, so I heard Cui Sanniang say: "Yes, the third lady is very kind to me, people are not grass and trees, so I always care more." Cui Sanniang called the second child "Er Guan", which is a very intimate title in Jiangnan. Generally speaking, a boy is called "Xiao Guan". If it is used to refer to an older person of the opposite sex, it must be intimate up.It can be seen from this that there is a special relationship between Cui Sanniang and the second child. Boss Bai laughed dryly: "To be honest, we have never understood why you failed to accomplish such a good thing." It should be a very interesting thing to ask a chicken-skinned and white-haired old woman about her love affair back then, but I felt a chill, because the voice of Boss Bai from the bug was very eerie, obviously In the past, there is a lot of grievances. Cui Sanniang's answer was also very tit-for-tat: "If it weren't for having a few good brothers, it would be really hard to say what would happen!" Judging from Cui Sanniang's tone, her "good brother" is clearly an irony, and I was even more curious, because it sounded like a "good thing" between her and "Second Widow", which was called her. "Good Brothers" spoiled.Who is her "good brother" referring to?Is it the boss Bai, the fourth Huang and the fifth flower? The more I listened to their conversation, the more I felt that there was much to explore in the past, and Hong Ling asked impatiently, "Have you arrived yet? The little girl's house, have you arrived yet?" Hong Ling's words were beyond comprehension—the group of people went to the house of "Chen An'an". How many times have modern people seen such a battle! Boss Bai immediately comforted: "Hurry up, once you arrive, you will use your skills to bring that little girl out——I have already told you about the little girl, so don't be too nice to her!" Hong Ling said: "Yes, I know, that little girl is a ghost, a fierce and cunning ghost!" I was even more surprised, Boss Bai actually asked Hong Ling to do such a thing, if there was any mishap during the operation, although there would be no danger, it would be really boring! After Boss Bai said it, Cui Sanniang snorted: "Little girl said well, that old man is indeed fierce and cunning!" From Cui Sanniang's words, I heard that there was also a festival between Cui Sanniang and Huang Laosi, and the boss Bai sneered: "Sister San, I always thought that the second child suddenly disappeared, and the fourth child killed him secretly. I searched deeply, but couldn't find anything—” Cui Sanniang interrupted Boss Bai's words: "The fourth is fierce and cunning, and his actions are clean and neat. We found that the second husband suddenly disappeared. It has been more than half a year since no one has seen him. There is enough time to eliminate the evidence, and the gods will also investigate. Not out!" I was shocked when I heard that, because what happened back then included the suspicion that the fourth child killed the second child. It can be seen that the entanglement between these five people involves a wide range of things. In this tense atmosphere, Hong Ling said solemnly: "No, the gods know everything, ask the gods to investigate, and they will definitely find out!" Her words were full of childishness, and it was difficult for people to understand the worship of "fairy" in her heart, so no one paid attention to her words. Boss Bai snorted again: "Sister San, things are different from what you think, and it's also different from what I thought. I didn't know anything about my second child until today. The fourth child may not even know. Tell me, why did you fail to achieve good things back then—why did you refuse his attention?" As soon as I heard these words from Boss Bai, I couldn't help being surprised and inexplicable: He said that he "didn't know until today" about the second child, what did that mean?In the past twenty-four hours, he was either under my surveillance or with me. What happened to him that made him know about the second child that he hadn't known for many years? The first thing that came to my mind was that there was a short period of time when I was away from Bai Boss and Hong Ling and was not with them.But this period of time was extremely short, and it didn't look like anything serious had happened. Then, the only possibility is that he learned about the second child during the long conversation with us. Bai Su and I narrated a past event in detail to Boss Bai. The time when this past event happened was about a few years (within ten years) after the five of them became sworn brothers. Did that appear in my narration? Second child? When I think of this, my heart beats wildly.Those past events were all told by Zu Tiankai. Is Zu Tiankai the "second child"? I immediately denied this idea, because Boss Bai already knew that Zu Tiankai was still alive, and if he was a sworn brother from the past, he would have paid attention to it long ago.So, is it Dynasty? It wouldn't be, because when mentioning the dynasty, Boss Bai said "I haven't heard of it".Is it Cao Puzhao?No, Cao Puzhao was old, and when he continued, Boss Bai wasn't even qualified to participate in its success. Well, there is only one person left!Claiming to come from the underworld, acting strangely, with unknown purpose, and using a life-threatening ring to take the lives of more than a hundred people! When I think of this, not only my heart beats wildly, but even my palms are sweating!If Bai Su was by my side, I would hold her hand tightly, or hug each other! Boss Bai is sworn brothers with five people, and the second child among them is Yinchai! Thinking of this, there are many doubts, which can be easily solved.For example, who gave Cui Sanniang's reminder ring, of course it was given by a errand.Yinchai and Cui Sanniang used to have a very close relationship, so it is very common to give that precious ring to each other! And why the king of thieves, a master of the Kintori gang, would take a fancy to an inconspicuous but heavy box, and it is easy to understand——Hua Wu was once a member of the Kintuo gang, and the ghost had the precious ring He probably knew about the matter and tipped off the gang. (On this point, I only guessed half right. The real situation is very unexpected, and I will naturally explain it later.) And more importantly, several things that I thought were irrelevant, are actually connected together naturally!
