The old man is a hundred years old, and his body is quite strong. But You Xi only sees his great-grandfather once a year, and he doesn't have much relationship with his old man.
This time You Xi went home and brought a lot of delicacies, ginseng and antler, but the old man looked at him with the same indifference as before.
But great-grandpa wasn't targeting him. To these litters of children below, the old man looked indifferent.
This is not to blame for his old man, the You family tree has deep roots, generations of ordinary families have long been separated, but Fu has distant relatives in the mountains, who made the You family produce two earners? Cultivating relationships, and those who seek profit and wealth, have really become a big family with a thriving family.
According to incomplete statistics, in Yuxi's generation, there are forty or fifty people in the family. As for Yuxi's next generation, there are already about sixty children.
Simply terrible.
The old man sat upright on the chair, like a wooden portrait. You Xi lowered his eyes, and asked and answered with his old man like a business.
Cousin You Chi came over upon hearing the news, and gave You Xi a huge hug as soon as he entered the door.
Yuxi was almost killed by the fat on his body.
"Hi, Brother Chi Chi." You Xi greeted awkwardly.
"Oh, Xixi, the longer you grow, the more handsome you are." You Chi smiled and squinted his eyes, and greeted Cao Yun next to him warmly, "Ah, isn't this the son of the Cao family? It's a pleasure to meet you!"
After Cao Yun shook hands with him, You Chi looked at Qin Yuandai again, with doubts in his eyes: "Who is this?"
"His name is Ashan." You Xi briefly introduced, "My friend."
"Ashan, right? Where did you get rich?" You Chi nodded to Qin Yuandai.
He took out his postcard from his suit pocket, and when he was about to hand it to the other party, Qin Yuandai suddenly said, "I'm just a bodyguard."
You Chi stretched out his hand halfway and withdrew it: "Oh, why does Xixi bring bodyguards when she goes home?"
He put the postcard back into his pocket calmly, took out a square towel and wiped the perspiration on his forehead.
"There may still be dangers on the way home." You Xi could only follow Ah Shan's words.
"Hehe, the really rich ones are different from our kind of swollen faces to pretend to be fat." You Chi showed an uncomfortable smile, "Is there any spare money in Xixi's hands, can I borrow some from my brother? Brother doesn't ask for much, just four million."
You Xi: "..." If you have money, why do you have to lend it to you? You can still hear a meat bun beating a dog.
You Xi was about to refuse, but Ah Shan strode forward, stood in front of You Xi and said: "No loan. My employer is preparing to make an investment now, and I haven't found the money to raise money everywhere. How can I give you four million. "
You Chi's face was a bit ugly, and he would probably go back if it were someone else. But Qin Yuandai's sense of oppression was too strong for him, he didn't dare to be tough, but his tone was also a little annoyed: "Why do you invest, who doesn't know that we Xixi only like to play games, why think of investing!"
"Brother Chi, you don't have the money to buy shares, so I can't tell you what kind of investment to make." Cao Yun also chimed in, "This is a business secret!"
You Chi had a bad nose, and sat down on the chair, his face full of resentment, and he no longer had the smiling face he had when he first came in.
You Xi only wanted to worship his ancestors this time, and he didn't want to get angry with people who had nothing to do with him. Although You Chi hates it, it is not cheap, and You Xi is not willing to haggle with him in front of his elders.
When You Xi and You Chi were fighting each other, the great-grandfather just sat upright, with a look of wandering, and he didn't bother to care about these things among the younger generation.
You Xi withdrew from the front of the hall, and was led to the resting room by the housekeeper's grandfather. After leaving the lobby and breathing in the fresh air, he finally smiled.
The housekeeper grandpa is an old man who has been taking care of You Xi's grandpa in the past. Later, Youxi's grandfather passed away, and the housekeeper stayed in Youfu to take charge of the affairs.
Seriously speaking, You Xi's intimacy with the housekeeper's grandfather is a little higher than that of his great-grandpa.
"Grandpa Qiao." You Xi said, "You've been in good health recently? I just asked my aunt to send you some supplements in the house. You are getting older, so be careful."
The grandpa housekeeper smiled and said, "It's all old problems. When it rains, my knee hurts. Everything else is fine."
After exchanging pleasantries for a while, You Xi asked, "I want to ask you something. Do you remember that I was bitten by a snake when I was a child?"
The housekeeper was puzzled for a moment when he heard the words, but then he seemed to remember: "I remember. This happened on the Ching Ming Festival of the year your Uncle Yu left!"
"That's right." You Xi cheered up. Since the grandpa housekeeper still remembers, there is hope to help him answer his doubts.
"You just came out of the ancestral hall that day. After playing in the backyard for a while, you suddenly cried and said that a snake king bit you." The housekeeper smiled uncontrollably, "But how could there be a snake at home? Let alone the snake king. Your legs are indeed swollen Woke up with a bag, and your family members told you that it was bitten by a big bug, and you had to cry and say no, so everyone had to follow your words."
"I reckon that you fell asleep playing around that day, had a dream, and confused the dream with reality."
"You had a fever at night, and your family sent you to the hospital, but the doctor couldn't find out what was wrong." The housekeeper said, "I guessed that it might be because of the heavy Yin Qi during the Ching Ming Festival, and young master, you offended me." What kind of dirty thing, so I used the ancient method to get the White Horse General Talisman for you. After you fell asleep, I put the Talisman under your pillow for a night."
"Sure enough, you were alive and kicking back to normal the next day." The housekeeper said with a smile, "Why did you remember this after such a long time? Did you dream about the Snake King again?"
You Xi: "..." Is it just a dream? It doesn't make sense just to dream, I can't just acquire a physique that is invulnerable to all poisons for no reason.
After the housekeeper left, Cao Yun also went to his guest room to take a rest. Qin Yuandai looked at this gap, and said his speculation: "When you met the Snake King when you were young, you may have encountered a copy of reality."
Qin Yuandai explained: "The reality dungeon does not necessarily have to be a player to experience it. Ordinary people may also be involved if they stray into the realm of ghosts."
"The Ching Ming Festival is very cloudy, and there are locust trees planted near your house." Qin Yuandai said, "I suspect that it may not be someone else who led you into the real copy, but the dead ancestors of your family."
"What do you mean? Why are they trying to kill me?" You Xi didn't agree with Qin Yuandai's statement.
"It may not be to harm you." Qin Yuandai reassured, "It is true that locust trees attract ghosts. If you observe carefully, almost every locust tree has tumors. It is said that it is a good place for ghosts to inhabit. But locust trees are also Guard tree, especially in ancient times, rich families set up ancestral halls. The souls of ancestors and ancestors do not like to stay in the tomb, but like to board on the locust tree, helping future generations to guard the house. Foreign ghosts are usually killed If you chase them away, the ones who remain are your own family members, so it has the effect of warding off evil spirits."
"Then what's the meaning of them sending the Snake King to bite me?"
"If you want to understand this, you probably have to enter the reality copy again."
"Ashan, aren't you from the future? You don't know the answer?" Yuxi asked curiously.
"Eh..." Qin Yuandai broke into a cold sweat, and one lie needs to be covered up with thousands of lies, "Have you heard of the butterfly effect? Since I'm here to help you solve the regret of the housekeeper grandpa, I will try not to interfere in other matters Otherwise, it may have a bad influence on the future. You should act according to the original plan and don't pay too much attention to my existence."
"Oh." You Xi reluctantly accepted the statement, "Speaking of which, will the supplements you asked me to buy for the housekeeper's grandfather really work? Will he really have no more problems?"
Qin Yuandai was ashamed, and said with a guilty conscience: "This is natural."
The two came to the ancestral hall again.
Non-game players can only randomly trigger the real copy, while official players can directly enter by clicking on the game interface as long as they appear near the real copy.
Sure enough, as Ah Shan expected, there really was a real copy of "Bloody Fortune Gu" in front of their family's ancestral hall.
Looking at the name of this dungeon, You Xi had a bad feeling in his heart.
"Making money Gu" sounds very evil, how could there be such a thing in my family's ancestral hall
You Xi thought about it and asked: "Ah Shan, I will add you as a friend and pull you in to form a team with me, or should I just enter the dungeon by myself?"
Of course, it is impossible for Qin Yuandai to let You Xi enter the dungeon alone, after all, the usual style of escape games is very brutal.
Although the invitation to add friends is very tempting, Qin Yuandai was worried that he would lose his horse, so he had no choice but to refuse.
"You don't need to add friends, I can go in with you." Qin Yuandai clicked to enter the real copy, followed by You Xi. The moment he entered, You Xi felt a subtle change in the light and shadow in the ancestral hall.
The ranks of the ancestors are still placed in the ancestral hall, which could have given You Xi great comfort, but he felt unspeakable palpitations.
"Yu Xi, why did you come here? Why didn't you bring me with you?" You Xi was observing all the changes in the room, but suddenly Cao Yun's voice came from behind him.
He turned back in horror: "Don't come in!"
But it was too late, Cao Yun had already stepped into the ancestral hall—
"Why can't I come in if Ah Shan can come in?" Cao Yun pouted and said unhappily, "You have to pay attention to first come first, then come later. Master You, I have been with you for more than ten years!"
Cao Yun didn't know what kind of danger he was in, and he was still talking about himself.
Now that the matter has come to this point, You Xi has no choice but to do his best to ensure Cao Yun's safety.
"Cao Yun, first try to see if you can still go out." Qin Yuandai suggested.
"Go out? Why can't you go out?" Cao Yun stepped out of the ancestral hall without any scruples, but the scene outside was different from when he came.
The most obvious change is—
"You Xi, the off-road vehicle you parked in the yard is gone!" Cao Yun said, "Someone took your car away while you were not paying attention!"
You Xi's eyes were dark, and he knew that the game had officially started.
The author has something to say: Babies, today is Chapter 52, which is also 520. Is there any meaning to all this? I love you guys!
