Jinan, in a bamboo house at the foot of Thousand Buddha Mountain.
Liu Xun's second grandfather and third grandfather were playing a game of chess. Although it was just a chess game, the room was filled with a murderous atmosphere, as if two armies were facing each other, with murderous intent overwhelming.
A young boy, about seventeen or eighteen years old, was watching the chessboard. The boy had delicate eyebrows and a pair of extremely strange eyes. He was born with double pupils. You should know that the ancient overlord Xiang Yu and Emperor Shun also had double pupils.
The history of China is more than 5,000 years. However, only eight people in these years had double pupils: Cangjie, who invented Chinese characters; Emperor Shun, one of the Five Emperors; Xiang Yu, the Overlord of Western Chu; Lü Guang, the Sixteen Kingdoms of Later Liang; Yu Juluo, a fierce general of the Sui Dynasty; Li Yu, the last emperor of the Sui Dynasty; Gao Yang of the Northern Qi Dynasty; and Duke Wen of Jin, one of the Five Hegemons of the Spring and Autumn Period!
Which of these eight people is not famous throughout history? I really don't know who this young man with double pupils is!
The young man was dressed in ordinary modern clothes, carrying a bronze sword on his back. The sword was more than three feet long, one inch wide, and two centimeters thick, without a scabbard! At this time, he was watching the chess game with a smile.
Suddenly, for some reason, the chess game collapsed and the chess pieces scattered all over the floor. Liu Xun's second grandfather frowned and immediately looked at his third grandfather. His third grandfather frowned and said softly, "It's bad. Xun'er must have done something that leaked the secret or said something he shouldn't have said."
"What do you mean?" When Second Grandpa heard this, his brows frowned even deeper.
"When Xun'er was a child, I set up a Bagua formation on him. The injury he suffered when he retired was due to this formation, so it saved his life." The third grandfather sighed, his eyes full of worry.
"Xun'er told me that he was injured because a dum-dum bullet passed by his ear. What does this have to do with the Bagua formation?" As soon as the second grandfather finished speaking, his face changed, and then he said: "Could it be that the Bagua formation changed the trajectory of the dum-dum bullet?"
"That's right, but every time the Bagua formation is activated, cracks will appear. Just now I clearly felt the sound of the Bagua formation breaking. That is to say... Xun'er must have said something that leaked the secret, otherwise the Bagua formation would not have broken."
"Leaking the secret? You haven't taught Xun'er the Eight Trigrams and the Eight Diagrams and Yin and Yang, so how could he leak the secret?" Second Grandfather asked in confusion after putting away the scattered chess pieces.
The third grandfather shook his head and said, "Xun'er is too smart. I'm afraid that some of the things I said when he was a child are still in his mind. It's a coincidence that he has touched the way of heaven."
When the Third Grandfather said this, he immediately looked at the young man beside him and said sternly: "Di Yi, now you rush to S City immediately, and then find a man named Liu Xun, and stay with him temporarily in case of any accidents."
The boy's name was Di Yi, a strange name. At this time, Di Yi nodded and waved his hand. A piece of linen instantly appeared in his hand and wrapped the bronze sword. He also left the bamboo house.
When Di Yi left, the third grandfather pinched his fingers and said softly: "In less than three days, Xun'er will be imprisoned, and in less than seven days, Xun'er will be in bloodshed!"
"Is there any way to crack it?" Second Grandpa asked casually as he rearranged the chessboard.
"Originally, these had nothing to do with him, but he said something that revealed the secret, causing the Bagua formation to collapse! But don't worry, because the jail time is not a big deal. The tricky thing is the blood disaster, but this is his fate and it is unavoidable! Remember the Peach Blood Evil Star I told you about? It's already here." After the third grandfather finished speaking, he sat down and continued to play chess with the second grandfather.
"Peach blood can break the evil star? It seems that the reason you asked Di Yi to go is not to save Xun'er." The second grandfather shook his head and smiled, and said nothing more.
At the bus station in Jinan, Di Yi was wearing sunglasses and looking for a bus to S City. His hard work paid off. When he saw the sign on the bus that led to S City, Di Yi smiled with relief.
The bus started after it was full, but when the conductor walked up to Diyi, he realized that he had to pay. What was money? He had no idea. The only things he had come into contact with since he was a child were ancient martial arts...
"I'm sorry, big sister, I don't have any money." Di Yi said with a bitter face. He had never spent any money since he was a child and had no concept of money.
"You can't get in without money. You'd better get off." The driver said to Di Yi with a very unhappy look. He really didn't know how the people at the long-distance bus station checked and let a person without a ticket and money get on their bus.
"But I have to go to S City for urgent business." Di Yi looked a little anxious. He didn't want to get off the car because he didn't know where S City was.
"How can I take you if you have no money? If everyone is like you, I will lose a lot of money, right?" The driver became a little impatient and stopped the car.
"Okay then." Di Yi picked up the bronze sword wrapped in numbness and prepared to get off the car, but at this moment, a big man took out his wallet from his waist bag and said to the driver: "We are all fellow villagers. This kid may have some urgent matters. It's just a few dollars. I'll pay for it."
After the big man finished speaking, he handed the money to the ticket seller. If Liu Xun was here, he would definitely recognize the big man, because the big man was the owner of the barbecue restaurant and the father of Wang Yixuan and Wang Yikai.
"Thank you, uncle." When the emperor heard that he didn't have to get off the bus, he sat down happily. The big man shook his head and said, "What's there to thank me for? When I run out of money one day, you can help me, right?"
"Okay!" Although the big man said it jokingly, Di Yi still agreed readily. However, the driver looked at Di Yi with disdain and mocked him: "You are a loser who doesn't even have money, and you wear sunglasses to pretend to be a gangster."
When Di Yi heard this, he just laughed it off. The reason he wore sunglasses was because his pupils were different from others. As for the underworld, even if you told Di Yi, he wouldn't know what it was.
After Liu Xun came out of Lin Meng'er's room, he discussed the cooperation with Wang Ziqing. Both of them had the idea of cooperation, so they hit it off. After lunch, Liu Xun and Situ Ying also left the Wang family villa.
After Liu Xun and Situ Ying left, Lin Meng'er also told Wang Ziqing what she had said to Liu Xun. When Wang Ziqing heard it, he frowned and said softly: "Why did you tell him this? Especially the fact that Situ Feng is not Situ Minghao's biological son!"
"It's okay, I know what you are worried about, but Liu Xun is not that kind of person." Lin Meng'er held Wang Ziqing's hand and said with a chuckle.
Wang Ziqing nodded, took a deep breath, and said, "I know Liu Xun is not that kind of person, but don't tell anyone about this matter in the future. I will meet with Liu Xun again in a few days to discuss this matter."
One must be on guard against others. Wang Ziqing was afraid that Liu Xun would resort to extreme measures after knowing this. After all, this matter was something that Liu Xun and Liu Zhang could not afford to expose. (To be continued)
