In her past life, her family was destroyed and she died tragiously on the open sea.
Reborn in a new life, what bad intentions could Shangguan Wu possibly have? She simply wants to take reveng...
Only those who have truly experienced it know how terrifying and hopeless it is.
Whether it's Gu Yunzhen or Qin Yiheng, if they encountered something like this, even slaughtering the entire Tianlong Fortress wouldn't extinguish the anger and hatred in their hearts.
The Divine Messenger Organization uses hypnosis to manipulate people at will; they deserve to be killed!
So they didn't say anything to comfort the old man.
Actions speak louder than words!
The moment the Divine Messenger organization is destroyed, those who have suffered as much as the old man will be freed.
However, the damage remains and cannot be reversed.
Gu Yunzhen and Qin Yiheng simultaneously made a firm decision in their hearts: We will not return to the Imperial City until the Divine Envoy is destroyed!
After regaining his senses, Mr. Ding stared intently at Gu Yunzhen with his old eyes and solemnly said, "Mr. Wu, thank you for playing the suona. It awakened my soul. Otherwise, I would still be living in a daze, not knowing where my ancestors are."
Gu Yunzhen was taken aback.
Qin Yiheng was quite surprised and couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Ding, may I ask you a question?"
Mr. Ding said politely, "Please speak."
"How many times did it take you to hear him play before your memory returned?"
Qin Yiheng remembered that only the Ding family father and son, Ji Tiantian, and Masha appeared every day. The two girls were young and obviously born on the island. Of these four people, only Mr. Ding was hypnotized. But so many people listened to Gu Si's playing every day. Could there be others who had also regained their memories?
Perhaps their plans could be adjusted.
Mr. Ding recalled, “The first time I heard it, I was shocked. It was as if I had heard it somewhere before. I couldn’t help but want to keep listening. So I went out every day and asked my son to accompany me to search. Today, when I listened, I felt that I had many more memories in my mind, especially knowing where my roots were. I couldn’t bear it and fainted.”
Qin Yiheng was quite surprised: "Is this the first time you've heard of this?"
Mr. Ding nodded and looked meaningfully at Gu Yunzhen: "This is all thanks to Mr. Wu's help, otherwise I would have no face to see my parents even after I die."
Gu Yunzhen said in a low voice, "Sir, you are too kind. You must have other matters to discuss with us. Please feel free to speak."
Mr. Ding looked at him intently, and suddenly sighed: "I have met countless people in my life, and you are clearly not ordinary people. You are here to do great things, aren't you?"
Without needing their acknowledgment, Mr. Ding had already accepted the facts and pleaded, "Mr. Wu, I'm entrusting you with the connections I've built up over decades. I only hope that when you leave, you can take my son and his family back to Huaguo, is that alright?"
Ding Gang said anxiously, "Dad, we agreed to go home together!"
"I'm old, and you're my son. It's the same if you go home in my place." Mr. Ding is a college student who understands the law. If he went back to Huaguo, he would probably go to jail. It's better to stay and take a bite out of the enemy. That would be much more satisfying!
Gu Yunzhen's eyes were as dark as ink as he met the old man's gaze: "Is there human blood on your hands?"
Mr. Ding chuckled self-deprecatingly: "None of the twelve stewards of Tianlong Fortress are clean. Every year, they deal with some disobedient ones. We take these people out to sea and then say that they encountered pirates and unfortunately died overseas."
Gu Yunzhen asked again, "No one has any doubts?"
Mr. Ding said meaningfully, "Not everyone is a fool, but those who are too smart don't live long, so they have no choice but to pretend to be fools."
Tianlong Fortress calls the shots on the entire island.
The island's population is equivalent to that of a small city in the country of Hua.
It is easy to imagine how much power the twelve stewards wielded.
Gu Yunzhen asked again, "Who are your connections? Who are influential people on the island?"
Mr. Ding hadn't expected him to ask such direct questions. After thinking for a moment, he rattled off one name after another.
Some of the names surprised Ding Gang greatly.
It was as if he didn't know either.
It's only been fifty-one years, so it's not surprising that he has such a network of connections.
Qin Yiheng silently wrote down the name.
Mr. Ding's eyes gradually became unfocused, and even after he finished speaking, he still looked at Gu Yunzhen, as if waiting for the next question.
Gu Yunzhen knew the hypnosis was successful and asked one last question: "What is your purpose in coming to me?"
Old Mr. Ding's eyes blazed with fury as he said resentfully, "As long as we cooperate, I will definitely destroy that place, destroy Tianlong Fortress! This place should never have existed! Those people all deserve to die!"
Ding Gang was stunned. Was his father going to bomb the island?
But what about all the innocent people on the island, including his wife's family?
"dad……"
As soon as Ding spoke, Gu Yunzhen ordered, "Old sir, please rest first."
After saying "okay," Mr. Ding lay down and closed his eyes.
Ding Gang was stunned again. He looked at his father, then at Gu Yunzhen: "What did you do to my father? Are you from that place?"
In an instant, Ding Gang's expression changed drastically, and he immediately tried to capture him.
Gu Yunzhen nimbly dodged his attack: "I am from Huaguo."
Ding Gang clearly didn't believe him and continued throwing punches.
Gu Yunzhen lowered her eyes and exchanged ten moves with him in the ward before finally pinning Ding Gang to the wall with his hands behind his back.
Perhaps the commotion was a bit too loud, because a nurse came to knock on the door.
Qin Yiheng walked over and opened the door, his tall and imposing figure blocking the entrance. He spoke with a gentle and refined tone, "I accidentally knocked something over. It's alright. Thank you for coming all this way."
The nurse stared at him blankly, saying, "It's good that you're alright, it's good that you're alright."
Qin Yiheng nodded to her and then closed the door.
At this moment, Gu Yunzhen stared at half of Ding Gang's face and said in a deep voice, "Are you awake now? Do we need to hit him again?"
He felt sorry for the old man.
But he wouldn't joke about his own life or Heng's life.
What if his experience was a hoax?
After being so gullible, he and Heng-ge will be the ones who die.
His wife is still waiting for him to come home; he can't die!
With his face pressed against the cold wall, it was hard for Ding Gang not to be sober. He couldn't win a fight, so he asked, "Who exactly are you people?"
Qin Yiheng walked over and said, "Good person. Don't worry, we Chinese don't lie to other Chinese."
Ding Gang: "..."
He's never seen a good person pin someone against a wall!
"When will my dad wake up?" These two dared to hurt his father; he would kill them even if it cost him his life!
Gu Yunzhen released him and said with a slight parting of her thin lips, "The old man's emotional fluctuations are too great, which will affect his health and easily lead to high blood pressure, coronary heart disease and so on. He is just asleep now."
Qin Yiheng gave him a meaningful look. Was this something he had been influenced by from a young age?
Gu Yunzhen ignored him, pretending not to see him.
Ding Gang was surprised to find that his account was almost identical to the doctor's, and he began to believe him somewhat. However, he cautioned, "Are you really confident? Tianlong Fortress is not to be trifled with, and that place is certainly not one you can afford to mess with!"
Suddenly, Gu Yunzhen's voice turned icy cold: "Coincidentally, they also offended someone they shouldn't have!"
Ding Gang: This guy is really arrogant!
