"Who on earth sent this thing... Putting aside this point, Uncle Ming, the content of this videotape is very strange, really, very, very, very strange!!"
Wu Xie frowned and used three "extraordinary" words in a row to describe it.
As he said that, he picked up the old-fashioned player he had prepared at his feet and wanted to play the content inside.
"Stop fussing, I know what's inside..."
Hu Ming shook his head and stopped Wu Xie's actions.
Who the hell would be so free to go watch a ghost movie with a gay single so early in the morning?
This atmosphere is not suitable at all, is it?
"you know?"
Wu Xie looked at Hu Ming in shock.
He was very sure that except for his third uncle, he had never shown this thing to anyone else!
"...The reason is very simple. The person who sent this thing is a friend I met before, an old acquaintance. I know her purpose of sending this videotape."
"This thing was originally sent to another person. It was not meant for you. It was just that someone tampered with it during the logistics process and transferred it to you."
"Oh, I can tell you very clearly, eldest nephew, the "ghost" here is not you! It's just a person who looks very similar to you. You can think of it...a similar flower?
"
While Wu Xie looked like he had seen a ghost, Hu Ming tossed the videotape up and down and said casually.
"No, Uncle Ming, why do I feel like you know everything? Whether it's the sender or the content inside."
"You and my third uncle, what on earth are you playing?"
Intuition told Wu Xie that this matter was definitely related to Wu Sansheng!
"...Eldest nephew, as a man, a man with a handle, do you want to have such a keen sixth sense that is more accurate than a woman?"
Hu Ming's face trembled slightly. He really got it right on this matter!
Although the overall context is that Wu Sansheng and the Reconciliation Chain are working hard in it, Hu Ming, at most, can be regarded as the one who borrowed the chicken to lay the egg.
Use Wu Sansheng's plan to reconcile Lian Lian to complete his own affairs.
This matter, especially the Snake Marsh Ghost Town section, really has something to do with Hu Ming.
For a moment, Hu Ming looked at Wu Xie with a slightly subtle look.
This guy is worthy of being the “protagonist”!
Okay, I'll tell you at a glance that it's you two scammers who are secretly planning this...
Wu Xie sighed tiredly.
People are always cheating on their fathers and elders, why did Maoer become the nephew of his two uncles when he came to Wu Xie's place?
"Ahem, let's not talk about this for now, Wu Xie, there is indeed something in this videotape. Now, I will give you two choices."
"First of all, I will throw this thing away. You should treat it as if you have never received it. Anyway, this matter has nothing to do with you anymore. It will be the same with or without you."
Hu Ming thought for a while and said seriously.
"You mean, I have no use value anymore. What you and my third uncle are doing do not require my presence anymore?"
Wu Xie stared with a pair of dead fish eyes and said.
"Strictly speaking, it's part of your third uncle's plan! In fact, your third uncle and I are not the same person."
"Besides, your Uncle Ming and I are a good person, a good person who cares about my eldest nephew! Didn't I give you a choice?"
Hu Ming said with a grin.
To be fair, Hu Ming felt that he had taken good care of this nephew he picked up for free, no worse than the fat man!
The two of them are not related by blood, they are just uncles and nephews by seniority. To be able to do this is to be extremely benevolent. Unlike Fatty, Hu Ming is worthy of Wu Xie's declaration of uncle and his usual respectful attitude.
"Forget it, you know, Uncle Ming, there is something wrong with me. I can't figure out what's going on, and I feel terribly uncomfortable."
"No matter what, it is my third uncle's game or your game."
"Since I was involved in it and played a role, if I don't understand the ins and outs of the matter, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep well for the rest of my life."
Wu Xie sighed softly, hesitated for a long time, and finally said this.
He had a vague hunch that if he chose the second option given to him by Hu Ming, the rest of his life would probably be completely different.
The days when the boss of the Xiling Seal Society, a newly graduated college student, lived in despondency, may be gone forever.
There is always a price to pay for knowing some secrets that others try hard to hide.
Wu Xie understands this.
But inexplicably, waves of anticipation arose in Wu Xie's heart.
"I understand how you feel. It's not a good feeling to be kept in the dark by those closest to you... Presumably, after coming down from Changbai Mountain, you also asked your third uncle, right?"
"Well...but, I don't really believe the truth from Third Uncle's mouth. I always feel that he is hiding something and is still deceiving me."
Wu Xie lowered his head.
"There are some things that your third uncle will never tell you, even if he dies with the secret, he will not tell you."
"Yes, that's what he told me at the beginning."
"Okay! You've grown up, nephew!"
Hu Ming looked at Hu Ming and sighed softly.
"..."
Wu Xie's face turned dark. To be reasonable, he and Hu Ming had not been getting along for a short time.
But every time I look at this face that is younger than him and speaks old-fashioned words, I always feel a huge sense of dissonance.
"Okay, since you choose to pursue it no matter what, then..."
Snapped!
Before he finished speaking, under Wu Xie's stunned eyes, Hu Ming had already smashed the video tape with one punch.
Sweeping the broken shell into the trash can, he took out a note and a common brass key from the last century.
"Room 306, No. 349-5, Kunlun Road-Deershen Lane, Geermu City, Qinghai Province. This is the key to the room."
"If you want to explore, go there. There is a notebook left by my friend there, which contains some things."
"Some of what you want to know is recorded in it, and the rest...if you want to continue to pursue it after reading those things, you will know how to do it."
Spreading his hands and handing the two things to Wu Xie, Hu Ming said with a smile.
"Oh, I almost forgot, a friendly reminder, Qing Province is a plateau area, be careful of altitude sickness after going there, you have such a weak body... Tsk!"
In the end, Hu Ming glanced at Wu Xie with disgust.
"...I'm so sorry that I'm so weak! I'm so damn weak compared to you perverts!"
"Speaking of which, Uncle Ming, what on earth were you and my little brother doing behind the bronze door? What's in there?"
After carefully packing these two things, Wu Xie relapsed into his old habit and couldn't help but ask.
