Chapter 41: Blood Lotus Flower
"My grandfather was bound to know about my grandmother having a bizarre totem behind her back, so that's why she would have hidden that diagram, because once it was shown to my grandfather, my grandfather would have thought. My eldest uncle's disappearance is actually insinuating my grandmother in the same way." He Pingan said to me.
I can not help but light a cigarette, which seems to be carrying all the secrets of the lotus flower, He Pingan's words, in my heart undoubtedly the shock of the huge waves, lotus flower lotus flower lotus flower, blood-colored lotus flower, in my mind constantly rotating, lingering.
"How did you know that your grandmother also had a lotus flower behind her back?" I asked.
"It's something Cynthia told me about later in life, when she was little, Cynthia was the only child my grandmother coddled, she could, at times, bathe with her. In the beginning she didn't understand anything, in the end she told me about it, so to speak, this is our brothers' secret, now I told you." He Pingan said.
"What exactly do you want to say?" I asked.
"Zhuo Anu has a lotus pattern like this behind her, and my grandmother also has it behind her, which explains the relationship between the two, and on the surface, Zhuo Anu came to my house back then and allowed my grandfather to get the dragon vein of the Dragon Snake's Tomb, and this seemingly unbelievable and generous gift became very confusing. That is to say, from Zhuo Anu's coming, to the gift, and then left, in fact, all is my grandmother and Zhuo Anu between the calculation scheme, the two of them are not hometown relationship, very familiar with very familiar, but pretend to be just take in the hometown of the appearance of her in the secret calculation of what. I think my eldest uncle left that picture behind, actually reminding my grandfather to guard against my grandmother." He Pingan said.
"This inference of yours is a little too subjective." I said with a mouth full of bitterness.
"Don't deceive yourself, two identical totems, what do they represent you know much better than me, do you know why tattoos are taken as symbols of hooligans? Far from it, let's just say in recent times. The most obsessed with tattoos may be the youth gang, they have a unified tattoo, such as the left arm of the blue dragon, the road if the fight, the left arm a pull, a look at the aiya fellow disciples, which is a status symbol. I have said to this point, I think, you should now understand what it means, right?" He Pingan asked me.
"You mean that your grandmother, He Xiaoyu, and Zhuo Anu, perhaps belong to a mysterious organization? An organization similar to the Green Gang, and the identity mark of this organization is a bloody lotus flower?" I asked.
"Yes, this is obvious and the most reasonable guess, isn't it?" He Pingan looked at me and said.
After finishing a child's cigarette, I lit another one, He Pingan at least convinced me now, if I was just a little bit skeptical when I saw the blood-colored lotus flower behind Uncle Two, then now I can basically confirm that the appearance of this lotus flower was not a coincidence.
"This problem is very difficult to digest." I said. This was the truth, the relationship between Zhuo Anu and He Xiaoyu, in my grandfather's notes records, the relationship between the two of them was actually looking at each other, but this suddenly became an organization of people, that is to say, the facts once again proved that some of the things in my grandfather's notes, had no credibility.
"Right, that's why I haven't dared to say these words, if Zhuo Anu is alone, that one person may really only love wealth and not power, it's understandable, but if they're an organization, what a terrible organization would that be? An organization that could create my grandfather? An organization that could get Zhang Xianzhong's treasure? What are they scheming for?!" He Pingan was a bit agitated.
"You wouldn't dare to say this to anyone, but why do you dare to tell me?" I said a bit puzzled.
"Because I feel that you, like me, seem to know something and seem to know nothing, and are involuntarily involved in an inexplicable whirlpool." He Pingan said.
"You?" I asked.
"Yes, my grandmother is bent on letting me get the head of the family, you should name Abi what this means, if as my grandmother's own grandson I get the head of the family, and my grandfather's body can't hold out for a few days, then, the entire Li family, is equal to the control in the hands of the Scarlet Lotus organization, I'm just a puppet on strings only, so I think that instead of dealing with those old foxes, it's better to cooperate with you. I thought, instead of dealing with those old foxes of theirs, it would be better to cooperate with you, at least, you can't count me." He said.
"I say what do you mean by that? Dare you say that buddies aren't smart enough?" I laughed and scolded.
"Yeah, probably, at least you're not the kind of person who's happy and angry, I can tell from the fact that you're jealous, but of course, I don't want me to look the other way." He said.
–Sometimes, other people's trust in you will give you a kind of inexplicable emotion, or perhaps it is an attitude that a man who is a friend dies for a friend, He Pingan and I have not met a few times, but the words that he said to me made me feel that this person should be a real person, or perhaps it is true to say that I was moved by that sentence of his, and that the two of us are the same kind of people who are led by the the people who are being led by the nose. The old foxes can hold the group, so can we.
But I hesitated again and again, or did not tell him my second uncle behind a piece of tattoo thing, I do not say, does not mean that I do not want to, Zhuo Anu, He Xiaoyu, my second uncle, they are the same behind a piece of bloody tattoo, according to He Pingan's speculation, this tattoo, on behalf of an organization.
In other words, the three of them belonged to an organization.
This made me a little dizzy, a little hard to accept and digest. These three people, how could they be involved together?
At the same time, I wondered why my grandfather had left behind such a notebook that was almost entirely lies. He lied to his own descendants, so what's the point?
"Now that you suspect your grandmother of having problems, and your eldest uncle's children treat you like an enemy, I really can't figure out what kind of attitude you have." I looked at He Pingan and said. Since he knew so much in the dark, what was he up to?
"Actually, I don't know, perhaps, I have the same Li family blood in me as my eldest uncle, and have the same character, which is to get to the bottom of the matter, I don't know what I want to do, aren't you the same? You shouldn't be a person who can fight to the death just for the sake of treasure, sometimes for people like us, the answer, is more important than everything." He Pingan said.
I nodded, I have to say, a lot of this He Pingan's words can speak to my heart, I'm still running around non-stop, isn't it also for a so-called answer?
"What are you going to do next?" I asked.
"You have no idea why my grandmother found both Old Man Huang and your second uncle at once." He Pingan, however, said to me at this time.
"I said why do you people like to talk only halfway!" This was a question I didn't know and couldn't figure out in the first place. He instantly whetted my appetite.
"She's trying to attract attention, or rather, she thinks that Huang Lao and your second uncle, are the same threat to the people she really wants to get something from, so she's using a treasure of Zhang Xianzhong that she doesn't know the truth about to draw these two threats to one place at the same time, while her real target, another place." He Pingan said.
"What place?" I said.
"A lost temple." He Pingan said while taking out a few photocopy-like things from his personal bag and handed them over to me, saying, "This is the information that Qing Hua secretly got out from my grandmother, this is my grandmother's real destination, if I'm not wrong, the truth should be here."
This is a few sheets of A4 open paper, there is a diagram on the paper, what is drawn on the diagram, is an imposing temple, this temple is standing on the top of a mountain, on top of the mountain, the clouds and mists, just by looking at the diagram of this drawing alone, this looks very much like a palace in the sky.
"Even if Zhang Xianzhong's treasure exists, it will never attract my grandmother, including my eldest uncle, who is a person who is equally indifferent to power and money. It can be seen from that piece of yellow skin that what Zhuo Anu is busy with is related to the yellow skin, and what is the yellow skin? It is the legend of the most psychic Huang Da Xian, a talk of yellow pi, certainly recalled is the yellow pi spirit and Taoist, Taoist Taoism. Sichuan, Zhang Xianzhong, the diagram of the temple."
"Some of these things, I all consecutively together, into the library, looking for a lot of relations to check the countless canonical books, I finally found a trace of the clues."
"After Zhang Xianzhong claimed the throne, in order to find a good lineage for himself, he claimed to be a descendant of the gods, and the ancestor he recognized was Emperor Wenchang, and Emperor Wenchang, on the other hand, was the legendary god Zhang Yazi, and Zhang Xianzhong had lifted up the entire Great Western Country to build a temple for this so-called ancestor Zhang Yazi, and the name of the temple was called 'Heavenly Sage Shrine of Gods '. At that time, a total of 10,000 people were employed to build the temple, and I found a copy of a wild history book that said that when Zhang Xianzhong built the Heavenly Sage Shrine, he was extremely particular about the workers he used, and that they had to be of two phases, one of which was a snake and the other was a rat. After the construction was completed, all of them were killed, and the exact location of that Heavenly Sage Shrine became a mystery."
