Chapter 162: Listen to Uncle Tell the Story of the Past
With respect, Lu Mingfei bowed three times to the tablet, lit the incense in his hand and inserted it into the incense burner.
Turning his head, Lu Mingfei saw his uncle holding two wooden boards and asked with a confused look:
"Do you want to use golden nan for your tablet, or do you want to use this piece of huanghuali?"
"The tablets are for the dead, right?" Lu Mingfei recalled what he had learned: "I feel like I can live for a long time."
"It doesn't matter. People from the Lu family die very quickly, so I think we should prepare for this kind of thing in advance."
Ander went to sit on the sofa nearby, patted the small coffee table in front of him, and motioned for Lu Mingfei to come over.
"Come on, boy, let me tell you the story of the previous generations of the Lu family."
Lu Mingfei sat solemnly in front of Ander. Ander waved his hand, and a tablet flew up and landed on the coffee table in front of him. On it was Lu Shanyan's name.
Lu Mingfei was startled by this hand taking something from the air, and he looked at the name on the tablet with some fear.
Lu Mingfei heard this name from Ander just now. Lu Mingfei thought about it in his mind and realized that this should be his grandfather's grandfather.
"The Lu family is a dragon-slaying family in China. They have been fighting against the dragon clan since the Song Dynasty. They have been passed down from generation to generation and regard death as their own."
"As I said just now, Lu Shanyan is your great ancestor. Have you ever heard of the Heaven and Earth Society?"
"The one Wei Xiaobao joined to fight against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty?"
"The Tiandihui was an organization that existed in history, and later evolved into Hongmen. Your great ancestor was a member of it, and he was also the master of the incense hall."
Andermo looked at the name on the tablet, seeming to be lost in memories.
"He followed Li Hongzhang to Germany, where he joined the Camarilla and became the only Chinese in the Camarilla.
Later, the Qing court and the pseudo-dragon teamed up to use a trick to massacre all the people in the Kassel Manor where the secret party was stationed. Lu Shanyan fought with a dragon king and was bloody three times, and finally died of exhaustion."
"It sounds like my great ancestor was an out-and-out fierce man." Lu Mingfei was in awe of this ancestor he had never met before:
"What I just said was the incident of the Moon of Mourning. The elite members of the Camarilla were wiped out. That day was also the first time Angers and I met."
Ander put down the memorial tablet and changed into a comfortable position: "Later, we went to China and blew up the Tatar dragon veins, which was regarded as revenge for Lu Shanyan."
"Is there really a dragon vein?" Lu Mingfei sat up straight: "Is it the one in the movie?"
"No, it's an alchemy array used to refine a dangerous drug. The Tatars rely on this drug to create the dangerous Deadpool."
Lu Mingfei wanted to ask something else, but Ander waved his hand to stop him, and then said: "You will all learn these things this semester. If you have any questions, you should ask them then."
"Let's continue with the rest of the story. When Lu Shanyan died in Germany, he already had a child in China, your great-grandfather. His name is Lu Shulin."
Ander waved his hand and put Lu Shanyan's tablet back to its original place, and another tablet flew out and landed on the table.
Looking at the tablet in front of him, Ander's eyes were soft and his tone was gentle but firm.
"He was a good boy, just like his name, and he studied very seriously, but there was no suitable environment in China at that time.
At that time, the Chinese warlords were fighting, and his mother wanted to send him abroad, but he was unwilling to go out and said he wanted to stay in China.
He originally wanted to rely on industrial technology to change China at that time, so I invested a sum of money and asked him to open a soap factory to solve domestic health problems.
Later, the Japanese came. This guy was far away in the southeast, but his heart went to the northeast. He left his huge family fortune to fight against the Japanese.
He was already in his thirties at that time, and the rich were all running away. He was going to the battlefield with a gun..."
The atmosphere became depressing. Lu Mingfei looked at the tablets on the table and asked hesitantly: "Then he... died?"
Ender sighed: "It would be better if that were the case, he would be happier this way..."
At that time, the people in the country were in turmoil, and the bald man was fighting against foreigners and had to settle down at home first, so I went to Fushi City, and he went to Shanghai to find those people who really thought about China.
The war was cruel. I was fighting guerrillas on the front line with those Japanese hybrids, and he was in Shanghai delivering supplies to the soldiers through his business connections.
Later, the war ended, and just when I thought he was safe, the military commander set his sights on him.
In the eyes of the bald man, the Japs were a trivial matter, while red ideas were the mortal enemy, so a bullet took his life."
Ender's expression was a little ferocious: "He didn't die in the hands of the enemy, but was beaten to death by his own people. It's really... a shame."
The anger disappeared in a flash and was replaced by relief:
"Later, I flew a plane and crashed the bald man's house into pieces, which was considered as revenge for him."
"So the 9.15 attack was done by you, Uncle De?" Lu Mingfei was dumbfounded. As a child who grew up in Fujian, Lu Mingfei certainly knew how much influence this incident played in the process of regaining the treasure island.
According to history books, this incident occurred when a Kuomintang pilot was dissatisfied with the five-nut mooncakes distributed to Bald Head and crashed his plane into Bald Head's private residence. The explosives and fuel on the plane caused a huge explosion.
In the end, people only rescued Baldhead's diary from the ruins, and the leaderless island of insects was liberated, bringing a huge impact to the world.
"Absolutely." Ander nodded: "This topic is a bit heavy, let's talk about your grandfather's story."
Another tablet flew out, and the name on it looked a little rustic.
"Lu Youde was one of the first batch of Chinese students to come to Kassel College. He was a pillar of the relevant Chinese departments. He had a cheerful personality and was very popular with girls at the time."
"Relevant departments?" Lu Mingfei's focus was obviously on another place: "What is that?"
"The Winged Creatures and Related Creatures Control Department, referred to as the relevant department, is the department in China that handles incidents related to hybrids, deadpools and dragons.
Your grandfather is one of the commissioners of the relevant departments. They have a child, your father, and they also adopted another child, who is your uncle."
"So uncle, he was adopted?" Lu Mingfei understood something: "That's why he doesn't know about the Dragon Clan."
"Actually, he knows a little bit, but not in detail." Ender explained.
"Tell me about your grandfather. At that time, the country was engaged in the third-line construction, and a large group of dragon tombs were discovered in the northwest region.
Your grandparents awakened the sleeping dragon during the exploration, and unfortunately died in the battle, leaving only Lulincheng and Lugucheng, who had just graduated from junior high school at the time, your father and uncle."
Lu Mingfei sat there. Ender's story was short, but heavy enough. He was still immersed in the joy of victory in the morning, but in the afternoon he was suddenly overwhelmed by this heavy history.
"It's really..." Lu Mingfei murmured to himself: "It's so heavy."
Ander put the tablet back to its original position, looked into Lu Mingfei's eyes, and said seriously:
"I won't say anything about family missions or anything like that. I'm just telling you the stories of your ancestors. Next, is the focus of what we want to talk about, about your father and you."
