Chapter 154 Young People Like
Seeing his expression, Ji Huaisheng asked in confusion, "Why are you looking at me with such shock? Shouldn't I be the one who should be shocked?"
Jian Yue asked: "How many people do you think know this information about me?"
Ji Huaisheng thought he was afraid of being exposed, so he said, "How well do you think you can hide it? Until someone with a little ability wants to investigate, they can find it out with a careful check."
Jian Yue sighed and said, "I think so."
Ji Huaisheng always felt that he was weird.
Jian Yue patted Ji Huaisheng on the shoulder and said, "Thanks, brother."
Ji Huaisheng:?
no!
He is here to threaten me! Is there something wrong with this guy?
Jian Yue rejected his threat and said, "Since you have found out everything, it seems that I will have another birthday next month, so remember to prepare in advance."
Ji Huaisheng looked confused and said, "I'm busy! Besides, your birthday is a festival day in the mountains. How can you enjoy such a day?"
Jian Yue knew that he was right.
It really is that date.
The original owner also felt terrible. Now it seems that if he had not entered the original owner's body, he would probably have died on the boat, because he was a target in the first place.
Jian Yue said: "It's okay, but can you tell me my uncle's birthday?"
Ji Huaisheng probably didn't expect Jian Yue's attention to be focused on this. He wanted to refute, but when he met Jian Yue's eyes, he realized that Jian Yue might be asking seriously, so the words choked at his lips.
"I don't know." Ji Huaisheng said: "No one knows, or maybe he doesn't have it."
Jian Yue thought that perhaps no one knew Mu Huai’s birthday, and perhaps they themselves didn’t know.
I was standing in the yard and talking to Ji Huaisheng for a few words when my cell phone rang.
Aya on the other end of the phone said, "Butler Wang, can you come over for a moment? Someone died at the foot of the mountain."
Jian Yue said: "I'll come over now."
When he went there, not many people gathered around and the body was still covered. It should not have been left there for so long in the summer. Just because the man was an old bachelor in the village with no relatives, no one claimed him.
In the past.
The mayor said, "It was raining so hard yesterday, but he insisted on coming up this mountain. What do you think of this?"
There were many people from the town gathered around.
Of course, Jian Yue noticed that there were also a few people from the program team. He roughly remembered these people and they might also be players.
"It was raining last night, why did he run to the mountain?" Jian Yue asked.
The mayor heard this and said, "This old bachelor is not mentally normal. Who knows what he is going to do? Maybe he got drunk last night and fell on the side of the road."
This is complete and utter bullshit.
Jian Yue looked around. It had rained last night, and the cement roads in the whole town were chilly after the rain. The shoes of the people covered with cloth were stained with mud. The roads from the town to the mountain were all cement roads, so this was definitely not caused by someone falling down on the roadside after drinking.
He went up the mountain.
And we walked for a long time in the mountains.
The mayor, who was not far away, was shouting again: "Come and carry him away! How can we keep him here? Hurry up and take him back to bury him! Sigh, no one can rest assured!"
When the stretcher passed by Jian Yue, Jian Yue took a look at the bachelor's hand.
Wait until everyone has left.
Wang Wenwen came over and asked, "Butler Wang, what are you looking at?"
"Did you notice his hands?" Jian Yue said, "The pads of his fingers and the palms are black."
Aya came over and said, “That looks like a burn.”
They have both seen many wounds, so they have gained a lot of experience.
Nangong Xi said: "Burns? How could he have burns? Was he injured before?"
Jian Yue shook his head and said, "The color and shape of this wound indicate that it was no more than eight hours ago."
That is, this might be what happened last night.
Aya immediately said, "He was on the mountain, how could he have been burned? There can't be a fire on the mountain, could it be that he got burned at home?"
Jian Yue said: "This level of burns and shape must be caused by holding something extremely hot. Just looking at the boiling point and scorching heat, unless he is a blacksmith, he would not be able to come into contact with such things at home."
This sentence made everyone's thoughts clear instantly.
"That is to say, he found something on the mountain last night." Nangong Xi reasoned tentatively; "And this thing burned him like this, and then he fled to the mountain road and died."
Wang Wenwen said: "If there was something so hot and cold on the mountain, the mountain would have burned up long ago."
Everyone was silent for a moment.
Jian Yue said: "This miracle doctor is Ji Quan. Do you remember the complete story in the script? It says that when Ji Quan subdued the evil mutant puppet man, he did so because he found a lost secret book."
This matter was completely ignored because of the various things happening with the puppet man and the miracle doctor.
"So, is there really such a secret book?" Nangong Xi said, "But where can we find it?"
Jian Yue frowned slightly, but soon he saw the staff of the program crew setting up the set at the foot of the mountain not far away. The scene they were going to shoot today was the scene where the young boy Ji Quan was forced by the puppet man to sneak up the mountain, find a cave and look for the secret book.
"What do you think they are doing?" Jian Yue said.
Aya thought thoughtfully, "It's like a replay of what happened?"
Jian Yue nodded and said, "That's right. Since the script says it's in a cave, maybe there really is a cave on this mountain."
Aya was a little confused and said, "The only thing I don't quite understand is what the purpose of the production team is doing this. If they knew the secret book was in the cave, couldn't they just go and get it? Why did they spend so much effort to film here?"
Jian Yue said: "Perhaps they themselves don't know the location of the cave, and they need time and ability to find it. Or, without the excuse of filming, they would not be able to come to this mountain at all."
This guess is really reasonable.
And that secret book must be the key to unlocking all the secrets of the miracle doctor.
Almost at the same time.
Everyone's system panel refreshed a message: "
Limited time task: [Find the cheats]
Mission details: A secret book that records all the puppeteers' secrets is of great significance. Please find it and prevent the disaster.
Mission Reward: Treasure of the Puppet Clan"
The task is refreshed.
Aya smiled and said, "This seems to be the final mission. It looks like this instance is about to end. All we have to do next is find this secret book, and we can all go back."
This news sounds quite exciting.
But in reality it is not easy to find the secret book. But now everyone feels that it is okay as they have a direction. After all, from the cruise ship to the small town, people die every night, and the people around them slowly turn into wooden men. They don’t know when they will be the next one. In this high-pressure environment, it is a good thing to have hope that people can take a breath.
Jian Yue said: "Let's look for the location of the cave in the mountains in the next two days."
Everyone nodded.
Jian Yue also had to go up the mountain because he had promised Ji Huaiyu that he would go to the altar together to commemorate those who had passed away.
Two days later.
It's a nice day.
Ji Huaiyu took Jian Yue up the mountain. Jian Yue thought that with Ji Huaiyu's personality, everything would be simple. However, he never expected that he still brought a big bag with food and drinks.
Jian Yue thought Ji Huaiyu had finally come to his senses, and he said, "Master, I didn't expect that you have learned to enjoy life now!"
Ji Huaiyu glanced at him calmly and said, "I don't need these."
Jian Yue realized belatedly that this bag was probably for him. He was a little touched, but he still said subconsciously: "Master, don't bring it. It's a long way up the mountain, and I can't carry such a heavy bag."
I remember the last time we went up the mountain, he was almost dead tired because he didn’t bring anything with him.
He was carrying a bag this time. Isn't this going to cost him his life? In fact, his physical fitness must be very good. The original owner was not good enough. He was out of breath after walking a few steps. Who can he blame?
Ji Huaiyu said: "I don't expect you to carry me."
Jian Yue saw Ji Huaiyu walk in. He had changed his clothes. This was the first time that Ji Huaiyu was not in a suit in front of Jian Yue. Instead, he was wearing a black sportswear. The style and production were very simple, but he was tall and handsome, so he looked less serious and neat, and more handsome and youthful.
It has reached a new level of handsomeness.
Jian Yue couldn't take his eyes off it. He said, "Master, you look so handsome in this outfit. It's totally different from your usual style!"
After Ji Huaiyu buttoned up his clothes, he said, "Really?"
Jian Yue nodded: "Of course not! I've never seen you wear clothes like this before."
Ji Huaiyu said: "Is it something you young people would like?"
Jian Yue was stunned: "Why do you say that, Master?"
Ji Huaiyu had a rare awkward look on his face. He said, "There's a big age gap between us."
Jian Yue suddenly remembered that not long ago, when Ji Huaisheng came over, he saw him and Ji Huaiyu having dinner together. There happened to be fried chicken on the table that day. Ji Huaisheng said that these were things that young people liked and that he had never seen this thing on the table before.
That's what the words imply.
There is a big age gap between Jian Yue and Ji Huaiyu. In fact, at that time, Ji Huaisheng probably wanted to attack Jian Yue the most, meaning that Jian Yue was leading his uncle astray.
But what I never dreamed of was.
The person who took these words to heart was Ji Huaisheng.
Ji Huaiyu asked, "Does this style of clothing match the aesthetic taste of you young people?"
Jian Yue came back to his senses and looked at Ji Huaiyu. When he saw him, the tall and handsome man was standing in front of the sofa. His dark eyes fell on him, and he was about to listen to his opinions carefully. He had always been mature, steady, and even proud.
But that's the kind of person he is.
Willing to make changes for yourself, to make yourself look more suitable.
Jian Yue smiled and said, "I think young and old don't have a fixed style. Master, you look good in anything. I like them all!"
Ji Huaiyu didn't expect him to say that. He looked at Jian Yue helplessly and said, "Nonsense again."
But the ears have a faint red color.
Jian Yue smiled and said, "I speak from the bottom of my heart. If I say even a single word is false, I will be punished..."
Ji Huaiyu's eyebrows suddenly became sharp, and he said, "What nonsense."
Jian Yue saw that he rarely showed a cold face to her, and remembered that the word was Ji Huaiyu's forbidden area. Every time this word was mentioned, Xiaoyu would be very unhappy.
"No more talking." Jian Yue hurried over to coax him: "If I tell even a lie, I will be punished by not being able to eat delicious food tonight."
Ji Huaiyu's complexion improved a little, and he said, "You can't eat too well in the mountains. It's safer for you to stay in the house."
Jian Yue said: "Where in the world is there a place safer than your side?"
Ji Huaiyu seemed to think this made sense, he picked up the backpack on the ground and said, "Follow me when we get up the mountain, don't run around."
Jian Yue smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will stick to you for the rest of my life."
The two set out in the morning. The sun was high in the sky and the whole mountain seemed to be shrouded in mist.
Jian Yue followed Ji Huaiyu and walked up the mountain path.
It was early in the morning and the sounds of birds could be heard from time to time. The sun shone through the gaps in the leaves, making people feel warm.
Ji Huaiyu walked beside him.
Jian Yue and he walked up the stairs of the mountain together. When they came across rocky steps along the way, sometimes they would sit down and rest for a while. In fact, Ji Huaiyu did not need to rest, it was mainly because Jian Yue was out of breath.
Ji Huaiyu handed him the water and said, "You seem to be very experienced in mountain climbing."
Jian Yue said: "I once lived in the mountains for a period of time."
During the time when Shen Yushu passed away, he spent almost every day and night by the stone tablet on the mountain. He himself could not remember how long he had been on the mountain. At first, when he was hungry and thirsty, he would find some wild fruits and stream water on the mountain to drink.
His living environment was very difficult when he was a child, so living in the mountains was not difficult.
Later, his health gradually deteriorated, so he simply stopped looking for her. He just sat in front of Shen Yushu's tombstone every day in a daze until he finally passed away.
Ji Huaiyu asked: "Do you like climbing mountains?"
"I don't like it." Jian Yue said to him, "I just want to be with you."
The mountain breeze blew in from afar, blowing across the delicate and fair face of the person sitting on the rock. He lowered his eyebrows slightly, with long and slender eyelashes, and his thin shoulders in mountaineering clothes gave people a sense of gentleness.
Jian Yue looked at him sideways, smiled gently and said, "Isn't this very strange?"
Next second.
A coat fell on his shoulders.
Ji Huaiyu said: "No."
Pause.
The man lowered his eyes to look at him again and whispered, "I like being with you."
Jian Yue was slightly surprised, because Ji Huaiyu never said sweet words, and this seemed to be the first time he said such words to her.
The remaining mountain road is still very long. Jian Yue's ankle had been grabbed by the puppet of the miracle doctor in the yard before. His foot was sprained at that time. He took some rest during this period, but it was not fully healed.
I didn't walk many steps.
Ji Huaiyu then carried him on his back, and Jian Yue carried the bag instead, while he carried Jian Yue on his back.
Jian Yue lay on his shoulders. The man's shoulders were broad and strong, giving people a full sense of security, especially on hot summer days. Ji Huaiyu's body was cool, so he didn't feel hot at all. The insects, rats, snakes and ants in the forest would stay away from them. It was more effective than any insect repellent.
Jian Yue almost fell asleep on his shoulder.
Until a voice came from the front: "We are here."
Jian Yue woke up from his sleep in a daze and found that he had reached the top altar, which was exactly the same as the last time he came here.
Ji Huaiyu said: "It's here."
Jian Yue said: "I saw the miracle doctor come here before, and I followed him secretly at that time."
Ji Huaiyu glanced at him and said, "You are quite courageous."
Jian Yue also knew that it was really risky at that time. If it weren't for Nangong Xi's card, it would be unknown whether he could come out alive.
"Who made him always sneak around?" Jian Yue said, "The Ji family's affairs are my affairs. Of course I can't let him do bad things to your people."
Ji Huaiyu walked to a place not far away, where the miracle doctor was sitting before. Jian Yue also wanted to take a look there before, but was discovered too quickly, so he didn't have the chance.
This altar is really too big.
There were many complicated words and patterns carved on it. Jian Yue looked at it carefully and found that he couldn't understand it at all.
Ji Huaiyu half-knelt down, his hand touching the marks on the stone tablet where there was red blood.
Jian Yue also noticed it, and he said, "This bloodstain seems to be fresh."
Ji Huaiyu nodded: "Yeah."
Jian Yue looked at the bloodstains on the stone tablet. The degree of drying showed that the bloodstains must have been there within a few hours. He looked carefully and saw that there were still some bloodstains on the ground, but because of the heavy rain last night, a lot of it had been washed away, and only a little bit remained at the bottom of the stone tablet.
Someone has been here.
Just last night.
Jian Yue thought of the old bachelor who died tragically at the foot of the mountain. There were wounds on his hands. Although they were burns, there was no guarantee that his hands had been injured before the burns.
"Who is coming here?" Jian Yue said, "Is it the miracle doctor?"
Ji Huaiyu said: "It's him."
Jian Yue didn't expect the young master to be so sure: "What on earth is he doing here?"
Ji Huaiyu took back the hand that had been stroking the stone tablet. He looked under the stone tablet and said, "There is something he wants underneath."
Jian Yue looked at the bottom of the stone tablet curiously, and finally understood where the bloodstain came from. He probably wanted to take the things under the stone tablet but failed and got hurt instead. He subconsciously asked, "Secret book?"
Ji Huaiyu glanced at him sideways.
Jian Yue also realized that he spoke too quickly. He coughed and said, "I guessed, because that director's movie script was written in this way, saying that the Ji family has a secret book on controlling puppets."
Ji Huaiyu said: "The secret book is not under the stone tablet."
There is something else under the stone tablet.
Jian Yue looked at the stone tablet carefully and found that it was carved with delicate patterns and textures, and there seemed to be some people's names on it, called Chen Mo.
He had some guesses.
Ji Huaiyu said: "This is the tombstone of my master's wife."
Jian Yue suddenly realized that it was Ji Quan's wife. He had heard that Old Ancestor Ji Quan and his wife had a deep love and affection. They were a young couple. Back then, Mrs. Ji encountered bandits in the mountains and Old Ancestor Ji risked his life to save her, thus forming this happy marriage.
Later, the two of them fell in love and stayed together closely. They could be said to be an enviable couple made in heaven.
Jian Yue shouted and said, "So this is the tomb of Master's Wife."
He fell to his knees when he realized it.
"Master's Wife." Jian Yue knelt down, kowtowed and said, "Xiaoyu and I are here to visit you, old man."
Ji Huaiyu glanced at Jian Yue. Jian Yue's actions were very serious, without any reluctance. He was silent for a moment, then walked to his side, knelt down, and kowtowed to the tombstone respectfully.
It can be considered as meeting the parents.
Jian Yue smiled and asked him softly, "Will Master's Wife like me?"
"Yes." Ji Huaiyu said, "She has always been worried that I would be alone. Now if she can see you, she will naturally be happy."
Jian Yue sighed: "She is such a good person."
No wonder the disciples respect and like such a person.
Ji Quan wants to resurrect his clansmen, does he want to resurrect his wife? After all, his wife died of illness, and he cannot accept this, so he naturally wants to use those sinister methods.
Jian Yue said: "Is the remains of Master's Wife underneath this stone tablet?"
Ji Huaiyu nodded.
Jian Yue finally understood why the miracle doctor always liked to squat here and cry. Was it because this was his wife's tombstone? No wonder he came back here even after changing his body.
Ji Huaiyu said, "But there is more than just this thing buried with her."
Jian Yue asked curiously: "What else?"
"There is also a puppet-controlling cone." Ji Huaiyu said, "This is a spiritual stone that came out after the earthquake that year when the spiritual vein on the mountain was shaken open. The cone made of this stone can pin down puppets and souls."
Such amazing stuff!
Jian Yue realized a problem: "Why bury such a powerful thing?"
Ji Huaiyu said: "Master's wife felt that this object would bring disaster to the puppet-controlling clan in the future, so she buried it with the puppet-controlling cone before she died, and cast a curse that people with evil intentions would never be able to open the stele."
Jian Yue said: "She is really a visionary person."
If this kind of thing were to spread around the world, it would naturally cause disputes. It is possible that the accident that happened to the puppet clan on the altar that year was related to this incident.
"What if someone who doesn't know about this comes to dig it up?" Jian Yue said, "and they don't have any evil thoughts in their hearts, then they can open it."
Ji Huaiyu said: "Only members of the Ji family are qualified to dig the stele, otherwise it cannot be opened."
I see.
Jian Yue thought that this was indeed the safest and most appropriate way.
But soon, Jian Yue slowly reacted to something, something that made his back cold. At first, he thought that Ji Quan probably wanted to resurrect his wife and that was why he did so many evil things, just to save his people.
But……
Why couldn't he open the stone tablet?
If his mind was pure, then why couldn't he open the stone tablet, whether he was at the altar that day or possessed someone else last night?
