When Qin Shu heard what her sixth uncle said, nostalgia and admiration emerged in her eyes.
Grandpa loves her more than just her.
He is so partial to her that his attitude is biased towards the Pacific Ocean.
The Qin family members of the same generation as Qin Shu were like quail eggs in front of their grandfather. No matter how well they did, they could not get even a smile from their grandfather, who would always scold them.
Even Qin Hairui was afraid of his grandfather when he was a child.
When Qin Shu was a child, she didn't understand why her grandfather was so strict.
When I grew up, I realized that my grandfather had invested all his energy in her to prevent other brothers from the same clan from having affairs with her and letting her, a girl, be bullied.
Recalling the past memories, Qin Shu curled her red lips into a soft arc and said softly to her sixth uncle,
"As long as Grandpa is alive, I am glad. Now that we have found the entrance to the underground river, I will just wait patiently."
The Sixth Uncle looked at Qin Shu and said, "You are a lucky child. You have your elder brother to protect you. You will be safe."
Qin Shu also felt that she was very lucky. Not only did she have the opportunity to be reborn, but she also had the protection of her grandfather.
There is no one in this world who is luckier than her!
Uncle Qin Liu walked to the shrine and handed a few incense sticks to the three people.
"Since you are here, please burn some incense before you leave."
Uncle Qin Liu handed three of the incense sticks to Xie Lanzhi and said abruptly:
"You failed to kneel down and pay homage to the Qin family's ancestors last time. Why don't you try again this time?"
When Xie Lanzhi was included in the Qin family genealogy, he did not kneel during the ancestor worship ceremony.
This matter has always been a thorn in Sixth Uncle's heart.
I always feel that if this kid doesn't kneel down to the ancestors of the Qin family, he will feel a little bit wronged.
Xie Lanzhi took the three incense sticks and nodded slightly: "Okay."
Qin Shu: "No!"
Qin Hairui: “No!”
The brother and sister recalled the strange vision from the sky several years ago and tried to stop it in unison.
The Qin's Ancestral Hall is more solid.
It couldn't withstand the continuous heavy strikes of thunder and lightning.
The Sixth Uncle looked at the brother and sister with displeasure: "You two are becoming more and more crooked."
Qin Hairui said with lingering fear: "Sixth uncle, my brother-in-law is a little weird, you should think twice."
Qin Shu didn't say anything, but nodded and looked at her sixth uncle sincerely.
Xie Lanzhi is not only evil, but also has an extremely noble fate.
In the past, Qin Shu kept her distance from theories of metaphysics and numerology.
After experiencing some things in recent years, she felt that some things were really mysterious.
Sixth Uncle said unwillingly, "I'll let him try. If it doesn't work, he can get up. It's not a big deal. Why are you so excited?"
The corners of Qin Hairui's lips twitched: "This is not something to try out. If there is a thunderbolt, our ancestors will suffer."
The Sixth Uncle's eyes widened slightly: "How can it be so weird..."
“Boom!!!”
Suddenly, there was a deafening thunder outside.
The three people's nervous, suspicious and horrified gazes were like sharp swords piercing at Xie Lanzhi, who had kneeled on the mat without knowing when.
“Boom!”
“Boom boom!”
The thunder outside was getting louder and closer, and the tablets in the ancestral hall began to tremble.
Qin Hairui acted one step ahead of his brain and dragged the man up.
"You're crazy! Do you think my Qin family's ancestral hall is too solid?"
"You will only be satisfied if the ancestral hall is smashed into ruins by thunder?!"
Qin Hairui took great pains to pull up Xie Lanzhi, who was taller, heavier, and stronger than him.
Xie Lanzhi looked at the three people innocently: "I kneel down."
The subtext is: It’s not that I don’t want to kneel, it’s that you’re stopping me.
He now understood that some things can only be understood and cannot be described in words.
The more he understood the mystery of the Qin family, the more Xie Lanzhi felt that his worldview and cognition were shattered and could not be put back together.
Uncle Qin Liu stared at Xie Lanzhi in horror: "You...you..."
You kept mumbling for a long time but didn't say a complete sentence.
Qin Shu stood up and said softly, "Some things cannot be ignored. You should rest now and let Brother Lan kneel down."
Uncle Qin Liu seemed to have compromised and sighed, "I have never seen such a bizarre thing before. Anyway, the Qin family's ancestors can't stand his kneeling!"
Qin Shu and the other two burned incense to their ancestors and left the ancestral hall.
Xie Lanzhi held Qin Shu in his arms and asked in a low voice on the way back,
"If Grandpa hadn't died, how old would he be now?"
Qin Shu said: "137 years old."
"..." Xie Lanzhi's breathing became heavier.
After a long while, he asked softly, "You will live that long too, right?"
"I guess so--" Qin Shu covered her mouth with her small hands and yawned lazily.
Xie Lanzhi's nerves tensed up instantly, and he unconsciously clenched his hands around Qin Shu.
Qin Shu is younger than him.
Can he accompany Qin Shu until the end of her life?
Qin Hairui suddenly appeared and gloated, "Are you worried that you will live shorter than Ah Shu?"
Xie Lanzhi, whose thoughts were touched, pursed his thin lips into a straight line, his dark eyes full of unwillingness.
Qin Hairui mocked him: "This kind of thing is not something you can envy. It's not just a matter of genes, but also the Qin family's bloodline and the secret of longevity. Both are indispensable. Even if ordinary people extend their lives, they can only live past a hundred years."
Xie Lanzhi's face became darker and darker.
Qin Shu looked at his frustrated expression and said calmly, "Brother, I only have five years left to live. If anything goes wrong during this time, Brother Lan will definitely live longer than me."
"Bah bah bah!!!"
Qin Hairui pouted as soon as he opened his mouth and stared at Qin Shu with resentment.
"With Grandpa here, you'll definitely be fine!"
Old Master Qin is like a stabilizing force. Knowing that he is alive and will protect Qin Shu, Qin Hairui feels that his sister will be safe.
Even so, he couldn't bear to hear Qin Shu cursing him.
Qin Shu shrugged: "I said the truth. No one knows what the outcome will be until the last moment."
Xie Lanzhi said with a firm tone: "It will definitely be a good result. Even if I live a few decades less than you, it doesn't matter. You will definitely live a long life."
Qin Shu raised her eyelids, and her cold eyes fixed on the man's sincere and handsome face.
"If I live longer, I might disappear like my grandfather."
Xie Lanzhi said without thinking: "I'll go with you!"
Qin Shu smiled and said, "You are still so good at coaxing people. Don't worry, if I am really fine, the rest of my life is too long, I will definitely hold you by my side, and you can't get rid of me even if you want to."
Xie Lanzhi spoiled her and made her so dependent on him. This man couldn't escape.
Xie Lanzhi looked into Qin Shu's serious eyes, then lowered his head and kissed her red lips.
"It's my honor. Thank you Ah Shu for sticking with me."
Qin Shu glanced at her stunned elder brother and glanced at Xie Lanzhi.
"My elder brother is still here, you are so nice!"
Xie Lanzhi said indifferently: "Just pretend he doesn't exist."
Qin Hairui couldn't take it anymore: "Hey! How come I, a living person like me, don't exist anymore?"
Xie Lanzhi didn't even bother to look at him, he just walked straight forward holding Qin Shu in his arms, truly demonstrating what it meant to ignore someone.
