Chapter 145 The starting point of the whole incident
The response from Lei Yingxiong was very fast. I thought I would not see him until the next day, but on the day of Zhang Hou’s delivery, someone came to pick me up. Dad knew something and wanted to accompany me, but I didn’t let him.
I have to face this thing alone. When I take others to see Lei Yingxiong, he won't say so much.
Lei Yingxiong's people were waiting in the car outside. I put away the Huwei card, put on some clothes and walked out. I felt that I had completely risked my life, and I felt calm in my heart, but before I went out, I still couldn't bear it.
I glanced at Mustache again, he didn't speak, but that look reminded me of what he said to me.
I'm on your side, always.
The car that picked me up drove all the way to the door of Lei's house. In a quiet little house, I met Lei Yingxiong and Lei Duo. Lei Yingxiong was still the same, but my feelings towards him had completely changed. There were no good people on the road.
No one is an exception. She wears sheep's clothing but is still a wolf at heart. Lei Duo is different from usual. She doesn't say a word and sits next to Lei Yingxiong. I took one look and couldn't bear to look at her anymore. She looked haggard and her eyes were a little bit...
dim.
I avoided Lei Duo's gaze and felt the blood in my body burning up, rushing all the way to Tianling Gai. I took out the old man's Huwei card, slapped it on the table, and then sat down heavily. Lei Yingxiong was calm.
She looked at my actions without changing her expression and asked Lei Duo to go out first. The girl was very obedient this time and walked out the door quietly. I felt that she was looking at me again, but I didn't look back.
Only Lei Yingxiong and I were left. Both of us looked at each other. After a long time, Lei Yingxiong slowly sighed and said, "Brother, things happen for a reason. I hope you can forgive me."
"Where is my father?" My tone was very cold. I no longer had to be polite with Lei Yingxiong. My face was completely torn, and I could say anything directly.
"Put away the sign." Lei Yingxiong pushed the Huwei sign on the table towards me: "But you can't see Mr. Wei now."
"Lei Yingxiong! What do you mean?" I suddenly got angry and did everything. I narrowly escaped death at Hongshi'ao. When he said this at the end, I wished I could flip the table over.
"Some things, if you don't go to the end, you won't see the results. The same goes for me." Lei Yingxiong signaled me not to be so impulsive and said: "You have to go on until the end. At the end, what do you want to know?"
, whatever you want to see is not a problem."
My hands were grabbing the edge of the table so hard that my joints were turning green. I have my own temper, and I also have a stubborn streak in my bones, but the old man is my weakness. He was controlled by Lei Yingxiong and forced me to do things.
.Unless I don’t want the old man’s life, I will definitely be eaten to death by Lei Yingxiong.
"Tell me what you want me to do before you let him go!"
"We were tied to a rope and walked all the way to the end!" Lei Yingxiong's eyes flashed a little, but it quickly disappeared. He sighed slightly and said in a gentle tone: "It's about a hundred years ago.
Things may be coming to an end, or they may be just beginning. Remember, if you don't get to the end, you will die halfway. I don't believe in heaven or fate, the only one I believe in is myself."
The hundred years he was talking about were counted from the first time those dirtbags set foot in the dry well of Blackwater City, and it really has been a century now. I suddenly calmed down a lot, and slowly relaxed my grip on the table.
At this time, impulsiveness and rage are of no use. Lei Yingxiong’s words were not high-pitched, but he said them very firmly, leaving no room for refutation. I am indeed tied to a rope with him, whether I want to or not.
Have to go on.
"I will arrange the rest. When I need you, you can go."
"All the bronze medals have been found, what else can I do?"
"I said, this may be the end, but it may also be just the beginning." Lei Yingxiong turned around and reached for a box from behind: "You and I, there are seven bronze medals in total, and the whereabouts of the remaining one are unknown.
You may have heard that after the bronze medals are collected, all the truth will come out. But I want to tell you, it's not that simple."
I recognized this box, it was the box containing the piece of non-jade. Lei Yingxiong opened the box, and the piece of non-jade shone a little brightly, like a living eye, staring at me quietly. Lei Yingxiong opened the box.
The hero reached out and gently touched this piece of jade-like object, raised his head and said to me: "You are the one who wants to go to the end, but you may have been confused before. Today I will tell you something."
"Say it." I figured it out in my mind, and it was easier to control my emotions. There was no other way. I had to fight hard to save the old man, and maybe find a way to survive for myself.
"No one recognizes this thing, but what it is is not important. What is important is its function. You already know it." Lei Yingxiong put down Feiyu and said, "You know Lu Xiuhuang, from what I got
Judging from some information, everything actually started from this Taoist priest."
Lei Yingxiong is not from an aristocratic family, and his ancestors did not participate in the series of actions to find the bronze medal. But this person has the energy to hold the old man captive, and joined forces with Du Qingyi. What he knows is probably first-hand information, which is credible
The degree is relatively high. These information are related to what I want to do later, so I suppressed the remaining anger in my heart and tried my best to listen patiently.
"This Taoist priest was not well-known before. He only showed up after entering the Xixia palace. Some data can be analyzed that he came into contact with the then prince Ning Ming, and the Xixia royal family began a series of large-scale actions. Most of these actions were secret.
Many civilians and craftsmen were recruited. Prince Ningming presided over most of the actions. According to the data, they were repairing the mausoleum."
This statement actually deviates from common sense. It is not uncommon for people from wealthy families to princes and generals to build yin residences, but the key depends on who is doing the building. The prince of Yuan Hao certainly could not do this. Moreover, the scope of the tomb building at that time was very large.
Guangzhou is carried out in several places at the same time. There may be some slight gaps in time, but they are generally within the same scope.
There are many people who have built the emperor's mausoleum since he ascended the throne, but he must have ordered it to be built by himself. If it had been done by someone else, it would have been a big deal. For example, if the prince built it, it was obviously treasonous, but his father is still alive and well, and he is a son.
In the rush to repair the tomb, do you want to send his father in as soon as possible?
Therefore, there can only be one theory behind this abnormal phenomenon. The prince was also ordered by Yuan Hao, otherwise he would not be so bold.
However, these large-scale projects all failed in the end, and none of them were completed. There were many reasons for this, which have become secrets now. A lot of manpower and material resources were spent, and in the end only a few unfinished projects were completed.
Next, Lu Xiuhuang was recommended by the prince, met with Yuan Hao, and was highly regarded.
When I said this, I already understood that the most important reason why Yuan Hao valued Lu Xiuhuang was definitely the transformation from old to young. This was Lu Xiuhuang’s trump card, and it was also something Yuan Hao was eager to get.
.So he presided over the operation of Lao Lin in Kaiyang at that time. In this operation, Lu Xiuhuang showed his scheming to the extreme. He used the hands of the Xixia royal family to get what he wanted in Kaiyang and squandered it without telling Yuan Hao.
.But Lu Xiuhuang knew that the founding hero like Yuan Hao was not easy to fool. He could be deceived for a while, but not forever. Therefore, Lu Xiuhuang used another very sinister trick to completely solve all the problems.
Regarding rejuvenation, Yuan Hao knew about it, and Prince Ningming also knew something about it. Together with Lu Xiuhuang, they were probably the only three people who knew the secret at that time. Lu Xiuhuang did something between Yuan Hao and the prince, and they immediately
It aroused strong conflicts and dissatisfaction between father and son. From Yuan Hao's point of view, he used Lu Xiuhuang to find the secret of rejuvenation in order to live longer, but if he lived longer, the prince would be forever
There is no chance to rise to the top. So before Kaiyang Lao Lin's action, Yuan Hao warned Guo Lu Xiuhuang that the prince was not allowed to know about this matter. And from the prince's point of view, unless Yuan Hao died, he would be just a decoration.
In the face of absolute interests, the relationship between father and son seems to be annihilated. Lu Xiuhuang cleverly took advantage of the conflict between Yuan Hao and the prince, constantly provoking, intensifying the conflict, and finally developed it to the point of being out of control. Finally,
The prince couldn't bear it anymore and launched a palace mutiny. Although Yuan Hao did not die on the spot, he did not live long. The prince was surrounded and suppressed, and the mutiny failed and died.
Everything was cleared up, the two people who knew the secret shut their mouths forever, and Lu Xiuhuang quietly disappeared in the aftermath of the chaos. No one knew the secret anymore, and no one threatened him anymore.
When Lei Yingxiong talked about this, I discovered a problem. Yuan Hao and the prince were both dead. If Lu Xiuhuang was the only person who mastered this secret, how did these secrets get leaked? Of course I know, Lei
Everything that heroes like Du Qingyi know comes from the fragments of Lu Xiuhuang's handwritten manuscripts, but Lu Xiuhuang designed to kill Yuan Hao and Prince Ning Ming just to seal this secret tightly. How could he be so stupid?
To the point of leaving a handbook for others to refer to?
Moreover, did the thing that can make people age and become young instantly cause Lu Xiuhuang to enter a cycle similar to eternal reincarnation? He will never grow old or die?
Thinking of this, I shivered in my heart. Could it be that that Taoist priest is still alive?
I had questions in my heart, but I was very dissatisfied with Lei Yingxiong, so I didn’t ask him personally. I just thought about it alone. Lei Yingxiong knew that these narratives were incomplete, and probably also knew about the biggest problem in his narrative. Soon he
Then he continued.
"Maybe you think that everyone who knows this secret is dead, but you must have forgotten one person."
