Chapter 288 Longmen River Sacrificial to the Tomb of the Princess
Chapter 288 Longmen River Sacrifice and Presentation of the Princess’s Tomb (Part 2)
Aaron, tsk, it should be said that Zhou Balu had a vague guess when he heard it halfway. The last time this name appeared was a year ago, but Zhou Balu was deeply impressed. At the Capital Summit, the Heavenly Official of Lingshan Mountain appeared and attacked.
He and Yao Xiaoman met Lord Tanlangxing, and the temple owner who used the "Yellow River Dharma" took action, Lord Huanghe.
Yao Xiaoman called him "Brother Aaron" and said he was the bodyguard of the Yao family.
Now the information provided by Jiang Xundao says that Aaron is a man who has lived for hundreds of years, and the government seems to be interested in him.
Zhou Bachu was wondering whether he should do Jiang Xundao a favor and tell him what he knew about "A'long"... He was suddenly slapped on the back: "Hey! Uncle!"
Zhou Ba Wa turned his head and saw Yao Xiaoman, a ghostly girl. She appeared with a grimace at some point and "timely" interrupted his conversation with Jiang Xundao.
Zhou Baqu: "The little brat eavesdropped on the adults."
"Uncle, are you saying that children are not suitable for me?" Yao Xiaoman held Zhou Bashi's arm and pulled him away. "Uncle, let's go! Let's play with Xiaoman and keep an eye on things for you."
At the same time, there was movement from Ruchuan Guest in the room, "You are busy first, and I will contact you later when you are free." Jiang Xundao said something to Zhou Ba Wa over there, and returned to the house. Zhou Ba Wa was dragged away by Yao Xiaoman.
Yao Xiaoman took Zhou Bazhu to another courtyard where there was no one around. Zhou Bazhu said, "There is no one anymore. I want to talk to you here." She stopped. Zhou Bazhu rubbed his arms, he was quite energetic.
,
The first thing Yao Xiaoman said when he came up was: "Bad uncle, please don't tell the people in the government about Brother Aaron."
Zhou Ba Wa: "Change the flexible title first." Zhou Ba Wa said in his mind that big brother is the best when something happens, uncle is the bad uncle when nothing happens.
"Brother, come here, I'll give you something good," Yao Xiaoman pulled Zhou Ba Wa into his back room, rummaged through the boxes and cabinets, and found a small treasure box, like the kind that many children have, which can hide broken automatic pens and Water Margin cards.
, the box of the small toy, but as soon as it was opened, Zhou Baqi took a surprised look, Yao Xiaoman's little treasure box was full of at least a dozen dirty things.
Tsk, what a rich elementary school student.
Before Zhou Ba wax could take a closer look, Yao Xiaoman's treasure box opened and closed immediately and was put away. She took one out of it and pretended to be dirty, showing it off in front of Zhou Ba wax's eyes.
It was a piece of smeared dirt as dark as ink, and the small pupils of Zhou Ba wax expert's eyes contracted to read the message.
"The inkstone (super epic costume) belongs to the Confucian Temple of the Jianghu Department in the city. The depth of knowledge in the ink ocean is thousands of feet. The inkstone is hidden in the dragon and learns five chariots. It is full of economics and can understand the world's words. It has the innate ability: ink translation, which can decipher and translate the words of different languages or civilizations.
"
"What are you doing? The little brat wants to bribe me with hush money? I'm telling you, this is not good..." Zhou Bashi curled his lips and stretched out his hands without raising his eyebrows: "I like this very much."
"Yue, uncle is so shameless." Yao Xiaoman handed the inkstone to Zhou Ba Wax pretending to be dirty and said: "Brother, please do me a favor."
Halfway through the words, he pretended to be dirty and handed over the inkstone. Zhou Ba wax retracted his hand: "We thought our friendship was in place, but our relationship is in trouble, so we don't care." Zhou Ba wax said in his heart that Jiang Xundao had just been sent away.
Here comes Yao Xiaoman again. Why is he so popular today? Everyone comes to him for trouble. Let’s see if the Stove Lord has forgotten to catch Zhou.
"No, no, no, you have to take it." A brat is a brat. Yao Xiaoman pulled Zhou Bashi and refused to let him go. He started to act like a naughty boy. He tried to break Zhou Bashi's fingers one by one.
Kai also wanted to put the dirty look into his hands.
"I've never seen anyone in a hurry." Zhou Baqi was dragging a follower to compete with him, and his age group was lowered. Any normal adult would not be so free. If you want to be able to fit into the primary school student class,
, it’s only the eighth day of the week.
After talking for a long time, Zhou Ba Wa finally heard a piece of real key information from Yao Xiaoman about Longmen Town, the Yao family, the Yellow River Festival, and the Immortal.
"Uncle, please help me, I don't want Brother Aaron to go back."
…
Yao Family Courtyard, Yitang.
On the back of the faucet chair hangs the old Chinese characters "Brothers from Jianghu, Loyalty and Loyalty". Boss Yao is sitting down to talk. The head of the family has finished writing down today's affairs, and they are sparsely filing out. The "closest" bodyguard in the shadow behind him has just made a move.
, but was stopped by Boss Yao.
Boss Yao: "A lot of outsiders came during the river festival, and people from the government were mixed in to check on you."
In the shadows, it doesn't matter. This is not a secret that needs to be hidden. The river belongs to all civilizations.
Boss Yao: "It's better to have one less problem than one more thing. I'll help you hide it. Don't come forward. It's okay."
Boss Yao: "How many days do you have to go back?"
A voice came from the shadows, for three days.
Boss Yao paused for a moment. She was the talker of the entire Longmen community and managed a huge family affairs. Her true emotions could no longer be seen on her face. The only things that revealed her true feelings were those subtle words.
: "I've been very busy at home recently, and there are a lot of things going on. I'm short of manpower. If you don't postpone it for a few days, it will take ten years at a time, and it won't be short of a few days."
Ten years is the rule, one day cannot be too long, and one day cannot be too short. The three days I am here will help you clear all obstacles.
There was no sound in the hall, and after a brief silence, Boss Yao spoke again: "Xiaoman is the one you grew up with and who is closest to you. I will definitely be reluctant to leave you. She will definitely make trouble if you leave, and I will have a headache again.
Already..."
Xiaoman is a sensible child and will be fine.
The voice in the shadow was like an emotionless wooden machine. It seemed that it could only understand the superficial meaning of words and answered questions mechanically and impersonally.
But the meaning behind Yao's words was not the superficial meaning. She had said all her words, but the meaning was not clear. She could handle all the big and small matters at home, and Xiao Man didn't give her that much of a headache. She gave many reasons, but they were all excuses.
…
"My sister has been pregnant for so many years. How can I, a younger sister, not help her? Do you think that's right?"
Yao Xiaoman was chewing raccoon crispy noodles in his mouth, and he was shouting at Zhou Bawa. Zhou Bawa was eating melon seeds and listening, "Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, skin itch, shout louder, louder.
Yao Xiaoman had just finally explained her purpose and the situation of her family to Zhou Ba Wa. At the Capital Summit that year, just like Zhou Ba Wa found out about Yao Xiaoman, Yao Xiaoman's ability to catch Zhou and pretend to be dirty also vaguely noticed that Zhou Ba Wa was strong and might have helped Zhou Ba Wa.
He wanted to 'realize his big plan', so he got in touch with him, and the two became familiar with each other until a year later, when Zhou Bachu came to Longmen Town.
Zhou Ba Wa talks about her brat mentality and how she knows her likes and dislikes with strangers. Yao Xiaoman tells him not to worry about it. He has the ability to see that Zhou Ba Wa is destined to be with her and can take care of things. Zhou Ba Wa guesses what special tricks she hides.
, but she did not say please at this point, and it is not the focus this time. We will talk about it later.
Coming back to the current matter, Aaron is a special person in the Yao family. He has protected the Yao family for hundreds of years. He has been there to protect every parent during their period of prosperity.
The outside world, as stated by the government polling bureau where Jiang Xundao is located, believes that this is a person with the ability to live forever. Inside the Yao family, Yao Xiaoman, who knew about it, told Zhou Bawa:
"I don't know where Brother Aaron came from. He has been here as long as I can remember. If I ask my sister, she won't tell me. If I ask Brother Aaron himself, he always says that he comes from under the Yellow River."
Zhou Baqu: "He really lived for a hundred years?"
Yao Xiaoman: "I don't know, he didn't tell me. My sister might know, but my sister didn't tell me either, but Brother Aaron is really good to us. When I was bullied when I was a child, he always helped me teach those people a lesson.
And buy me delicious food."
Zhou Ba Wa: "So what happened to the help you asked me to do?"
Yao Xiaoman: "They didn't tell me the secret, but I investigated some situations myself. At that time, the outside world thought that Brother Aaron had lived for a long time and was protected by the successive heads of the family. But after investigating at home, I found that Brother Aaron's appearance was actually related to
During the gap, during each period of the head of the family, he appeared continuously for no more than ten years, that is,
It's not so much that he has been protecting the head of the Yao family for hundreds of years, but that he has been protecting the head of the Yao family for 'ten years' every time he appears. Later, I overheard a conversation between my sister and Brother Aaron, which confirmed my investigation.
Said, Brother Aaron doesn't have much time left to protect my sister, he will go back in three years."
Oh? Hearing what Yao Xiaoman said, Zhou Ba Wa seemed to have vaguely overturned Jiang Xundao's statement: "What does this mean?"
Yao Xiaoman: "I don't know the specifics, but I know from my research that every time Brother Aaron expires in ten years, there will be a Yellow River Festival. He will return to the bottom of the Yellow River and wait for the next head of the family to appear before appearing again.
Bless you for ten years."
Yao Xiaoman: "Then I confronted my sister and Brother Aaron about this matter, but they just told me to leave my child alone. This is a mission, and it is the Yellow River's blessing and protection to the Yao family in Longmen."
Yao Xiaoman: "So I hope, big brother, you can help me stop Brother Aaron, don't let him go back this time, keep him here."
There were many mysteries and loopholes about the causes and consequences. Although many things were not explained clearly, Zhou Ba wax finally understood Yao Xiaoman's intention. It turned out that Yao Xiaoman had always been so close to him. He had been looking for a helper a year earlier to help her keep that Aaron.
Down.
Zhou Baqu: "Baby, are you being a little selfish? Your sister and your brother Aaron have already told you, but you still force someone to stay. How do you know if the person is willing or not?"
Yao Xiaoman, on the other hand, waved his 'Little Man Gong' Zhou Pendant in front of Zhou Bashi's eyes: "You know, I have the ability to read minds. I know best whether what they say is what they think. The only thing that hinders them is
What a 'gift from the Yellow River', what a mission, and what we have to do is to kill it."
