Chapter 461 They Are Not Human
Old Mrs. Zhang ignored her husband and continued to talk to her granddaughter, "The person I just told you about is Professor Qin. He is currently teaching at a university here, and his research is about this kind of thing. Grandma can take you to see him."
Li Yiyi secretly glanced at Mr. Zhang and saw him sitting aside, angry but not daring to say anything. This scene made her want to laugh.
Before her grandfather noticed her giggling, Li Yiyi quickly stopped smiling, then raised her head and replied to Old Lady Zhang, "Okay, I think it's okay. Thank you, grandma."
"What are you thanking me for? You're my granddaughter. I'm happy that I can help you." Old Mrs. Zhang smiled kindly.
As the two of them were chatting, Hua Xinbai suddenly asked, "Girl, where did you get this parchment?"
Li Yiyi stopped talking to Old Lady Zhang, took a look at the parchment, and said regretfully, "It was taken from the R countrymen, but they now think it's theirs, and asked me to return it to them after I figure out what's on it."
As soon as she said this, the three elderly people were very angry.
"Damn it, these bandits have robbed so many good things from our China and brought them back to their own country over the years. Now that we've been defeated, they're still coming back. They're even setting their sights on those graves. They're simply not human beings." Old Master Zhang cursed loudly with an angry look on his face.
Hua Xinbai's face was not very good either, and he was also very angry. "They are just a bunch of shameless robbers. Every time I hear about these people from Country R, I want to eat their flesh."
Old Lady Zhang looked fine, but she was still very angry. "Yiyi, are you going to help those R people?"
Li Yiyi shook her head and said, "Grandma, don't worry, I know what's going on."
Seeing this, Old Lady Zhang did not ask any more questions, but patted the back of her hand and said, "Okay, Grandma trusts your judgment, you make your own decision."
After talking about this matter, the grandparents and grandchildren prepared to take the Zhang family’s car to the university.
When Mr. Zhang heard this, he immediately stood up and offered to go along.
When Old Lady Zhang heard his request, she frowned and said, "Why are you following him? Aren't you at odds with Brother Qin?"
When Mr. Zhang heard her addressing the man surnamed Qin in this way, he felt sad and his tone became sour as well. "Brother Qin, Brother Qin, that sounds really nice. He's already old, but you still call him Brother Qin. I wonder if he'll feel uncomfortable hearing that."
Li Yiyi looked at her grandfather who was full of jealousy and couldn't help but burst out laughing.
When Mr. Zhang heard his granddaughter's laughter, his face turned red and he quickly shut his mouth.
Old Mrs. Zhang looked helplessly at her husband who insisted on going with her. "Whatever, come along if you want. I don't want to bother with you."
Mr. Zhang immediately smiled and quickly got into the car, sitting next to Mrs. Zhang.
Seeing this, Li Yiyi smiled and walked to the front passenger seat.
The car drove on for half an hour before arriving at the gate of a university. Since it was an important place for learning, the gatekeeper stopped their car at the gate.
Old Mrs. Zhang got out of the car, walked up to the old man guarding the gate and told him who she was looking for.
"So you are here to look for Professor Qin? No problem, I'll go and help you find him." When the gatekeeper heard that they were here to look for Professor Qin, he enthusiastically agreed to help them call someone.
"This Qin guy is so arrogant that he even wants us to wait for him at the door. Old lady, it's better for us to stay away from such people." Old man Zhang deliberately leaned close to Old lady Zhang's ear to fan the flames.
Li Yiyi was standing in front of Old Lady Zhang and happened to hear her grandfather's somewhat ungentlemanly words. She wanted to laugh but didn't dare to. In the end, she could only turn her head away and laugh secretly.
Not long after, Li Yiyi was the first to notice a tall old man following the gatekeeper. She didn't know if it was because he was a scholar, but he gave off the aura of a weak scholar. He had a slim figure, wore a pair of glasses, and gave people a feeling that he was very knowledgeable.
"Xiaoman, it's you. Why didn't you call me to inform me when you came? I could have waited for you here in person." Professor Qin's eyes were full of Old Lady Zhang at this time. As for others, he probably just glanced at them lightly.
At this moment, Li Yiyi finally understood why her grandfather was so jealous when he mentioned Professor Qin.
If she were his grandfather, he would probably be jealous too.
After Mrs. Zhang finished reminiscing with Professor Qin, she immediately took Li Yiyi's hand and walked up to him to introduce her. "Old Qin, let me introduce you to my granddaughter. How is she? Does she look like me?"
Professor Qin glanced at Li Yiyi, smiled, and nodded, "It does look a bit like her."
Li Yiyi could now hear the other party's perfunctory response to this sentence, but fortunately she didn't care about it.
Old Lady Zhang continued to say to him with a smile, "Old Qin, we came to you this time because we want to ask you for help with something."
"As long as it's your business, Xiaoman, I will definitely help. Just tell me." Professor Qin replied immediately.
Just as he finished answering, a heavy snort sounded from behind Old Lady Zhang.
Professor Qin followed the hum and saw Mr. Zhang standing behind Mrs. Zhang.
"Oh, you're here too. I thought you didn't want to see me anymore." Professor Qin looked at Mr. Zhang with a slightly annoying smile on his face.
When Mr. Zhang saw the smile on his face, he gritted his teeth in anger and snorted again, "Do you think I want to see you? If it weren't for me wanting to see you, I wouldn't come to see you."
Professor Qin smiled and continued to look at Old Lady Zhang, "Xiao Man, what did you just say?"
Old Mrs. Zhang quickly gave Li Yiyi a hint.
Seeing this, Li Yiyi quickly took out the parchment from her backpack.
After taking it, Old Lady Zhang handed it directly to Professor Qin in front of her.
"This is what I want to talk about. See if you can recognize the words above. I haven't studied this area over the years, so I can only recognize half of them. I can't understand the rest, so I have to ask you for help." Old Mrs. Zhang said embarrassedly.
At this moment, Professor Qin seemed to be completely immersed in this parchment, his eyes staring at it motionlessly.
After a while, Professor Qin finally came to his senses. He looked up and asked, "This parchment was unearthed in the Qin Dynasty. The person who owned this parchment was either a king, a general or an emperor. Child, from whose tomb did you dig this parchment?"
