Chapter 237 Grandpa, tell those stories from the past!
Xiaoziping.
The two of them were in pretty good shape, but they had been walking for an hour and were already exhausted when they arrived.
They knew it was a bit far away, but they didn’t expect it to be so far.
Moreover, there are no roads in some places and it is difficult to walk on them, which makes us very embarrassed.
It's really a bit hasty.
But work is work, and the two of them are still very strict about their work.
After resting for a while, he began to take photos of various places on the scene, keep records, and then asked Chen Yang some specific situations at that time, and made audio and paper records.
The whole process took nearly an hour to end.
“I heard that the reward this time is two million?”
It was already noon when we came out of Xiaziping. Two million was not a small amount. It was his own welfare. Of course, Chen Yang would not fail to fight for it.
Hu Kai nodded, "When we go back, we will report the situation here. Don't worry, Mr. Chen, it is your thing, and our association will not miss you."
"Thank you both very much."
"You're welcome, it's all work."
……
Back at the old house, it was almost two o'clock. Chen Yang still wanted to let them have a meal, but they declined because they wanted to go back to deliver work.
Before leaving, Hu Kai pulled Chen Yang to the corner of the courtyard, "Mr. Chen, I have something to remind you."
"Please tell me."
"Liu Changqing has a rather special status. He is one of the twelve villages in Raojiang. He comes from Liujiazhai in Niutoushan. Although he came out very early and rarely has contact with Raojiang, he is in Raojiang. It still has a good reputation. The association will try its best to conceal the relationship between Liu Changqing and you, but you also know that there is no airtight wall in the world..."
"You mean, Raojiang's Bian, will you cause trouble for me?”
"They definitely don't dare to do it openly. After all, we have issued a wanted order, and they don't dare to go against our association. But it's hard to tell what's going on secretly. So, Mr. Chen, you have to be more careful yourself. If you have any questions, you can call me. After you join the association, the association will provide you with help.” Most of them are dead, but there are still two people alive. One of them is being held in the Fenghuang Mountain Prison in the provincial capital and will never be able to get out in this life. You don’t have to worry, but there is still one person who you must be careful about..."
“Oh?”
Chen Yang’s heart skipped a beat.
Is there any of the Six Friends of Longtan headed by Ding Huanchun who is still alive? And, there are two more?
"Who is this person?" Chen Yang asked immediately.
Hu Kai said, "Qingshen Mountain, Duan Qiuping."
"Qingshen?"
Chen Yang frowned slightly, it sounded like a woman's name.
Hu Kai said, "This Duan Qiuping is the fifth of the six dragons in Longtan. She is one of the five Panshan sects. She is the direct descendant of the head of the Qingshen sect. At that time, the status of the Panshan five sects was still higher than the Eight Meridians. , Therefore, although this person committed a serious crime back then, he was still saved by Qingshen. From then on, he lived in Qingshen in seclusion, devoted himself to pure cultivation, and never went down the mountain again..."
"More than fifty years have passed, and there has been no news of Duan Qiuping's death in Qingshen. This person should still be alive. According to the data recorded by our association, Duan Qiuping is 88 years old, which is normally not at the end of his life..." "
"Among the six friends of Longtan, Duan Qiuping and Liu Changqing had a relationship, so you should know what I want to say..."
Hu Kai just stopped there and said this. Then he stopped talking.
Chen Yang's face was a little serious.
It’s just Liu Changqing, how come there are so many involved?
The Qingshen Sect, one of Panshan's five sects, was also involved.
“However, you don’t have to worry too much. Now that you have joined the association, you will naturally be protected by the association. If there is any change at Qingshen, we will know it as soon as possible and notify you.”< br>
Hu Kai smiled slightly, which was a relief to Chen Yang.
When he told Chen Yang this, he was just fulfilling his obligation to remind him. Things might not happen, but if they did, it would be good for Chen Yang to know what was going on so that he would not be confused.
“Thank you, Brother Hu.”
Chen Yang smiled back and changed his title.
"You are the person recommended by Liu Guotou, and naturally you are also my friend, Hu Kai. How much older am I than you, please call you Xiaoyang."
Hu Kai also caught me Seizing the opportunity, he took the initiative to build a relationship with him, "You are so young and have such cultivation. Liu Guotou respects you very much, and the association also values you very much. If you have a chance, you can go to Baoguo Temple. Walking around more will only be good for you..."
"Yes, I will, thank you Brother Hu for the tip."
Of course Chen Yang understood that Hu Kai wanted him to get to know him. Check with the high-level figures in the association, get acquainted with them, and find a backer.
However, Chen Yang doesn't really like doing this.
There will always be times when people with strong connections are unreliable.
Forging iron requires oneself to be strong. For the rest, just let it happen. It is not his character to take the initiative to follow the crowd.
Hu Kai chatted with him some more, while Jiang Rong couldn't wait any longer and urged him to get in the car.
After saying goodbye, Hu Kai exchanged phone numbers with Chen Yang, got in the car and drove away.
...
The Six Friends of Longtan, Duan Qiuping?
Chen Yang scratched his head, feeling like one wave was coming after another.
However, not many people now know that Liu Changqing’s death was related to him.
In addition to Liu Henghu, there are also some people from the Shanshan Association.
It was impossible for Liu Henghu to betray him, but that was not necessarily the case for the Mountain Climbing Association.
If the Qingshen Sect is really involved in this matter, I'm afraid it will be quite troublesome.
It seems that he has to find an opportunity to understand the situation of the Qingshen Sect. He does not want to fight an unprepared battle.
No matter whether the Qingshen Sect would take any action, he had to make preparations in advance and take precautions.
Moreover, since they are the Six Friends of Longtan, Ding Huanchun’s brothers and sisters, Ding Huanchun and Liu Changqing are all dead, how can anyone still be alive?
Given Chen Yang's hatred for the Ding family, he had to send them to meet down below. Shouldn't the sworn vows be neat and orderly, living and dying together?
“Yang Wazi!”
When Chen Yang was standing at the intersection, clenching his fists, a voice came from behind.
He looked back and saw a staggering figure, holding a walking stick, walking over from the path beside the bamboo forest.
Chen Anmin!
"Old Grandfather!"
Chen Yang walked over quickly and helped him to the road.
Chen Anmin and Chen Yang's great-great-grandfather are of the same generation, have the same grandfather, and are cousins.
Chen Jingzhi wants to call him Uncle Wu.
Among the Chen family in the village, Chen Anmin is now considered the senior one.
He has no children or a wife. The village has applied for a five-guarantee household for him. He usually lives alone in an old house in Baitang'ao behind the village and rarely goes out.
He was still wearing the same blue linen clothes with an apron tied around his waist, as if he was dressed the same all year round.
I am in my nineties, my back is completely hunched, I cannot straighten my waist when walking, and I am breathing heavily.
"Who came just now?"
Chen Anmin didn't pay attention to it. He sat directly on the stone ridge by the roadside, holding a walking stick with both hands, and asked Chen Yang.
A pair of eyes, old and cloudy.
"Two friends."
Chen Yang's answer was a bit perfunctory, and there was really no need to answer this question.
Chen Anmin didn't pay attention, he just looked at Chen Yang, "A few days ago, I asked you to come to my old house to see me when you had time. Why didn't you come? Do you think my grandfather is shabby?"
< br>Uh...
Chen Yang was stunned for a while when he was asked.
"No."
Chen Yang waved his hand and said quickly, "How dare I think that my grandfather is shabby? How shabby is my grandfather? I am really too busy during this period and forgot... ..."
"Busy? What are you busy with?"
Chen Anmin had a serious look on his face and banged his crutch on the ground, as if he was a little angry.
His reaction made Chen Yang a little confused.
"Old Grandfather..."
Chen Yang wanted to explain, but Chen Anmin shook his head and softened his tone, "You haven't eaten yet, have you?"
" Not yet.”
“Let’s go to my place to eat.”
Chen Anmin said a few words, with a somewhat commanding tone, and refused to discuss at all. He stood up with a cane and staggered back to the road.
Chen Yang had no choice but to rush up and help him.
It would be terrible if you get angry after bumping into each other.
……
Behind the village, Baitang Au. A large pond with several willow trees beside it.
The wind blows, the willow branches sway, and ripples are drawn on the water.
The terrain beside the pond is slightly higher, and there is an old house on a flat land leaning on the hillside.
The wooden mud house is many, many years old, older than Chen Anmin.
The walls are piled with firewood. Although the house is dilapidated, it is very clean and not dirty at all.
Although this old man lives alone, he is a very particular person.
Chen Anmin went to the kitchen and brought Chen Yang a bowl of white rice and a bowl of tofu curd.
In the yard, a wooden table.
"Let's just have some. Grandpa, this is the only condition."
Chen Anmin said, he grabbed a handful of peanuts, took a bottle of wine, and Started drinking.
Chen Yang didn't have the nerve to say no, so he started eating without being polite.
The breeze is blowing by the pond, and the tofu pudding is sweet in my mouth. It feels really good.
He looked up at Chen Anmin.
Chen Anmin was drinking and staring at the pond outside in a daze. He was obviously distracted. What was he thinking about?
Chen Yang was muttering in his heart. He didn't have much interaction with this old grandfather. He called him here, but he didn't know what he wanted to say to him.
"Old Grandfather?"
Chen Yang called him, "What are you thinking about?"
Chen Anmin turned around and looked at him, "Yang Wazi, how long have you been back? "
"It's been a month or two?"
"Well, you've changed a lot in the past two months."
Chen Anmin said something incomprehensible.
Chen Yang looked at him strangely, "Old grandfather, do you have something to tell me?"
"Hey."
Chen Anmin He smiled and said, "The little guy is quite discerning. Yes, I want to say a lot, but I just don't know where to start."
Chen Yang put down his chopsticks and looked in front of him seriously. This old man.
He is the cousin of great-great-grandfather Chen Tongsheng. I think he should have a clearer understanding of what happened back then.
Chen Anmin took a sip of wine and said, "I heard that boy from Qinzhou say that Yingyue girl is awake. Have you seen her?"
"Yes."
"Did she give you something?"
Chen Yang hesitated, then nodded, "Yes, Grandpa, do you know what she gave me?"
< br>
Chen Anmin said, "I gave it to you, just keep it, no matter what it is, when it's time to use it, you will naturally use it..."
He even started playing riddles.
What is there to hide? Just say whatever you have to say, what are you doing with all these twists and turns?
Chen Yang really doesn’t like people who know something but deliberately don’t tell you, insisting on telling you half and half hiding it.
But the other party was his grandfather, so Chen Yang could only try to persuade him, "Why don't you wait for me for a while, and I'll go back and get the things. You are a well-informed old man, help me take a look..."
He was about to leave.
Chen Anmin raised his hand to stop him, "Little slippery man."
Of course he knew that Chen Yang did it on purpose.
After taking a sip of wine, Chen Anmin said, "I just heard your great-grandfather said that the slate was given to Blind Man Pang before he died. It is an inheritance from the past dynasties. I want to explore it. The secret must be in the spiritual realm..."
"Must be in the spiritual realm?"
Chen Anmin nodded, "Yes, it's a pity that your great-grandfather never reached that level until his death, and he couldn't uncover the secret..."
"For this thing, Ding Huanchun and his gang, back then, He often caused trouble to your great-grandfather. Later, your great-grandfather knew that having this thing in his hands would bring endless trouble to the Chen family. However, the thing that blind man Pang passed on to him must not fall into the hands of Ding Huanchun and his gang. That’s why I gave it to Zhao Yatou to take away. After decades of wandering around, it came back.”
Chen Anmin was deeply moved.
Chen Yang took a deep breath, "Old grandfather, you should know a lot about Ding Huanchun and his gang, right?"
"The Six Friends of Longtan!"
Chen Anmin chewed his teeth and spat on the ground, "A bunch of rotten-hearted, damned guys. They don't do good things and do all the bad things. What about the Six Friends of Longtan? Hmm, the six ugly ones with thick phlegm are pretty much the same." ."
He said it excitedly, but in the end, he cursed.
Six ugly phlegms?
My grandfather is quite talented!
Next, Chen Anmin started chatting and told Chen Yang some things related to the Six Friends of Longtan.
Around 1958, six people, led by Ding Huanchun, gathered at Longtan Temple in the provincial capital and became known as the Six Friends of Longtan.
The six of them are all outstanding rising stars in the Panshan world, and they have quickly made a name for themselves in the Panshan world across the country.
But it’s a pity that it doesn’t have a good reputation. In that era, there were many taboos in the mountain climbing world. What mountains can be climbed and what mountains cannot be climbed, what can be done and what cannot be done are all regulated by the country.
But these six people seem to be born to break the law. They repeatedly break the bottom line, kill people to nourish souls, and set fire to seize treasures. Things like this are all exaggerated. The most exaggerated one is that these six people actually He was so arrogant that he ran to Pan Qixingdui.
It was also this trip to Qixingdui that made the Six Friends of Longtan, who were famous in the world, become what Chen Anmin calls the Six Ugly People.
The third child, Zhao Junting, died in Qixingdui. Six people went with him, but only five came back.
Soon Ding Huanchun and others were wanted by the authorities and became public enemies in the Panshan community across the country.
The Zhao family immediately cut off from Zhao Junting, for fear of getting into trouble. The remaining large and small forces related to the Six Friends of Longtan also stepped forward to draw a clear line.
For a while, he became a street rat that everyone yelled at.
At this time, the Qingshen lineage stepped forward to protect Duan Qiuping. This gave the Ding family and other families hope, so they put the blame on the dead Zhao Junting, claiming that they were just killed. Beguile and be an accessory to the crime, thus mitigating the guilt.
After that, Ding Huanchun was put in Jiapigou and underwent transformation, and was involved in many subsequent causes and consequences with the Chen family.
According to Chen Anmin, among the six friends of Longtan, only two of them that he knew were dead.
One is Zhao Junting, who died in Qixingdui a long time ago, and the other is Yang Dongguan, who later committed another crime and set fire to Erlang Temple.
As for the remaining four, after so many years, he didn't know whether they were dead or alive.
After eating the peanuts and the bottom of the wine bottle, Chen Anmin's voice was a little low. Although it had been many years, it was obvious that he still harbored great hatred for these people.
Chen Yang said, "Ding Huanchun is dead, and Liu Changqing is also dead."
"Huh?"
Chen Anmin was startled, raised his drunken eyes, and looked at Chen Yang Come.
Chen Yang did not hide anything and told Chen Anmin about the situation of Ding Huanchun and Liu Changqing.
After hearing this, Chen Anmin paused for a moment, then smiled, "Okay, very good, very good, Yang Wazi, this is the best news I heard today..."
Although it was many years late, it was indeed good news for him.
Ding Huanchun committed many unjust acts and was killed by a caravan. His body was buried in the wilderness and no one knew about it. It can be said that this was retribution.
Although Liu Changqing survived for many years, he finally fell into the hands of Chen Yang and died of frustration. It was also a cycle of cause and effect, and retribution was unhappy.
He lifted the bottle, poured the remaining wine into the bowl, and drank it in one gulp.
It can be seen that it is indeed enjoyable.
Chen Yang said, "There are two people left. One is Duan Qiuping from Qingshen. This person is probably still alive. I heard that she seems to have a good relationship with Liu Changqing..."
"Yeah."
Chen Anmin thought for a while and said after a long time, "Duan Qiuping, you are quite beautiful."
Chen Yang's face trembled, he did not expect to wait for such a long time to say such a sentence.
“It’s a pity, the more beautiful a woman is, the more dangerous she is.”
Chen Anmin seemed to have seen some kind of snake or scorpion in his eyes, and he was slightly excited.
Chen Yang didn't know what he was recalling. Seeing him like this, he didn't dare to ask further questions, for fear that he might accidentally lose his temper.
Chen Anmin took a few breaths before calming down, "Are you afraid that she will come to trouble you?"
"I'm not afraid that she will come, I'm just afraid that she won't come."
Chen Yang shook his head, "If she dares to come to me, it just so happens that all the old and new grudges are being reckoned with. Four of the six friends of Longtan have already died. How can the remaining two survive alone?"
< br>
"Don't underestimate her."
Seeing how confident he was, Chen Anmin thought he was just a newborn calf and was not afraid of tigers. He immediately reminded him, "Duan Qiuping is the direct descendant of the head of the Qingshen Sect. She is extremely talented and entered the spiritual realm at the age of twenty-five. She has been cultivating quietly for so many years with Qingshen on her back. If she is still alive, her strength will have improved. It is not as simple as you think..."
< br>Chen Yang took a deep breath.
What the old grandfather said is indeed true, but there is no exact information about Duan Qiuping from the Mountain Rush Association. There is no way to know what level this person's cultivation level is now.
This made Chen Yang feel uncertain.
