The room was very quiet.
Chen Fan subconsciously took out a cigarette from his pocket and put it in his mouth.
At this moment, he was in a state of great shock.
Because Shuangche's words just now completely interrupted his previous inference.
It turned out that the death of Bai Ruoxue's father was not caused by the second or third branch of the Bai family.
But another group of people took action.
When the Bai family saw that the patriarch was gone, they thought the time had come, so they took advantage of the situation and planned the assassination of Mr. Bai.
Some clues began to gradually become clear in Chen Fan's mind.
First of all, from Chen Fan's perspective, there were four forces in total.
Now based on the clues already obtained, Chen Fan feels that this is what should happen.
The old man of the Bai family had a serious illness after he suddenly traveled through time.
Later, the crazy Taoist's master passed by and saved his life.
Thus, the old man of the Bai family formed a friendship with the Taoist priest's master.
Later, the domestic situation changed dramatically and the Anti-Japanese War broke out.
The mountain is no longer safe. Before his death, the master is ready to use this favor and ask the crazy Taoist priest to find the Bai family.
After arriving at the Bai family, the Taoist priest gained the trust of the old man by relying on what he had learned over the years.
After the advent of the new era, as the situation gradually stabilized, the Bai family's business began to flourish, and their wealth expanded rapidly.
However, the old man of the Bai family has always been concerned about one thing.
That is, are there any other time travelers like him in this world?
In order to find other travelers like him, he secretly set up a pawn shop and also donated money to sponsor several paranormal research institutes at home and abroad.
While searching for humans, he studies the truth that is important to him.
Over the years, the pawnshop staff have helped the old man find many extraordinary people.
And a detailed list was specially drawn up. But the people on the list were not the ones that the old man of the Bai family was looking for.
So the list was put on hold, and the old man felt that his time was running out, so he handed over the control of the pawnshop to his grandson, Mr. Bai Erye.
After taking over the pawnshop, Mr. Bai learned a lot of secrets, and gradually began to wonder what happened to his grandfather.
After some analysis with the Taoist priest, Mr. Bai Er finally concluded that the greatest possibility was the initiation and sudden enlightenment mentioned in Buddhism.
After taking over the pawnshop, Second Master Bai used most of his strength to investigate the negative information of Bai's opponents, and only retained a small number of people to continue his grandfather's investigation.
Later, Bai Ruoxue's sister fell ill, and the crazy Taoist priest proposed a solution, so the pawn shop had a new task.
It was also because of Bai Qingci's illness that the Taoist priest accidentally ran into Chen Fan in order to find a suitable candidate to cure Bai Qingci.
The crazy Taoist priest and Mr. Bai Er began to suspect the secret of Chen Fan, thinking that he was the human that the old master of the Bai family had been looking for.
After some investigation, Mr. Bai became more and more convinced that Chen Fan was no ordinary person and might really be the person that his grandfather was looking for.
So Mr. Bai Er began to think of ways to bind Chen Fan to the Bai family.
A year ago, the pawn shop accidentally discovered that people on the list began to die mysteriously.
In just less than two years, there were less than fifty people left alive out of the more than one thousand people on the list.
After Master Bai learned the news, he gave the pawnshop a task to secretly investigate the cause of death of the people on the list.
The pawn shop did not find any clues, and the only clue was a lost nameplate found at the scene of one of the deaths.
There are three words written on it: Curtain-puller.
After the Taoist priest saw Chen Fan, he made a fortune for Chen Fan. Although he didn't get anything, he felt that he had revealed the secret and became blind. He took the initiative to retire from Master Bai and chose to live in seclusion in the mountains.
Bai Yunzhou found the idiot Taoist priest, who predicted that something big would happen to the Bai family, so he risked his life to make a divination.
Before dying, the crazy Taoist peeped into the secrets of heaven and made his own choice.
He wrote a letter to Chen Fan, giving him advice and suggestions on part of his insights into the heavens.
Then the head of the Bai family died "accidentally".
Then Chen Fan met the strange old man on the street.
Combined with the letter from the crazy Taoist priest, Chen Fan called him the third kind of person.
After some hesitation, Chen Fan finally decided to tell the secret to Master Bai.
Mr. Bai promised to help Chen Fan investigate.
During this period, the pawnshop found out that the cause of death of Mr. Bai's family was a human frame-up.
At this point, the fourth force that had been hiding in the darkness finally gradually surfaced.
Maybe it was because Mr. Bai was gradually getting closer to the truth, or maybe it was for other reasons, but by some strange coincidence, Mr. Bai was assassinated at this time.
Fortunately, before his death, Mr. Bai made his own decision.
He chose to hand over the control of the pawnshop to Chen Fan.
So Chen Fan gradually came into contact with this information.
Things seem to have lost their thread here.
But if you string all of this together carefully, you will find a very strange conclusion.
Mr. Bai: Plane crash, accidental death. Later it was confirmed that it was man-made.
Mr. Bai: Died in an assassination.
The foolish Taoist's master: According to what the foolish Taoist said in the letter, he suddenly fell seriously ill and then died on the mountain.
Crazy Taoist Priest: He spied something and died suddenly and mysteriously.
None of these people died of old age or illness; all of them died mysteriously.
Chen Fan's heart moved, and he suddenly looked at the two cars and asked.
"Do you know how the old master of the Bai family died?"
Shuangche was stunned, as if he didn't understand what Chen Fan meant by this question.
Chen Fan had no choice but to change the way he asked the question.
"Did the old man of the Bai family die normally?"
"this……"
Shuangche frowned and recalled.
"According to the records of the pawnshop, the old man of the Bai family lived to be 73 years old."
"But the health of the old man of the Bai family has always been very good. With the wealth of the Bai family, the medical team around the old man of the Bai family is top-notch, so it is unlikely that he will suddenly develop any disease."
"But the old man of the Bai family happened to get a strange disease at this time. The medical team around him was helpless, and it had never been discovered before."
"From illness to death, it was only three days."
Chen Fan subconsciously clenched his palms.
Such a quick death can almost be described as sudden death.
In the entire Bai family, starting from the old man of the Bai family, no one had a good ending. They all died "accidentally".
Could this be the advice given to me by the foolish Taoist priest and that strange old man?
Is this the punishment of reincarnation?
Is the Bai family facing punishment from heaven?
Will it be my turn next?
Chen Fan's face looked a little ugly.
If it was before, he would be nervous or even terrified when he heard the news.
But now, a strange idea suddenly popped up in his mind.
Could it be that the mysterious deaths of these people were not the so-called punishment from heaven, but that there was a mastermind behind all this?
