The Lost City of Alien Beasts

Chapter 1075

The group set off from Shilong Village in three vehicles and headed to Gaoyang's hometown on the outskirts of Licheng.

Around 11 a.m., everyone divided into three groups to search within the area designated by Dr. Jia.

Gao Yang, Qing Ling, and Wang Zikai formed a team of three and were responsible for one of the areas.

But Gao Yang was not in a hurry to search all over the place. On the way here, he thought again and again and decided to go to his uncle's house to see if he could find any clues.

Since this poem was left by my grandma, she must have some clues.

Almost every year, grandma would go back to her uncle's house in her hometown to live for a period of time. Last year, Gaoyang's father was hospitalized in a car accident, so grandma stayed at her uncle's house for an extra long time.

Gao Yang originally wanted to go alone, but Wang Zikai insisted on following Gao Yang no matter what. If so, Qing Ling would have to go alone to find the source. Gao Yang was worried, and finally Gao Yang decided to bring his "girlfriend" with his good brother. Visit uncle.

When Gao Yang brought his "girlfriend" home, Gao Shou was so happy that he even took photos of the family eating and posted them on social media. His uncle must have seen them, so just in case, Qing Ling continued to play Gao Yang's girlfriend.

"Qing Ling, you should play my girlfriend. We and Wang Zikai will come to play nearby and stop by my uncle's house." Gao Yang warned on the way to the uncle's house.

"No problem." Qing Ling said expressionlessly.

"Let's rehearse it," Gao Yang said.

Qing Ling was stunned at first, then strode forward to hold Gao Yang's arm, but her movements were stiff and the atmosphere was subtle.

"You're not showing off your affection, you're just holding a prisoner!" Even Wang Zikai couldn't stand it anymore.

"Why don't you come?" Qing Ling was unhappy, let go of Gao Yang, and pushed him towards Wang Zikai.

"Come on, come on! I will only demonstrate once, you have to watch..." Wang Zikai said and was about to start.

"Stop, stop, stop!" Gao Yang was a little speechless and said in a hurry: "In this way, we quarreled over a trivial matter along the way, and we are still at odds now."

Qing Ling nodded: "Okay."

"I'll go! Change the setting and it will feel right to you immediately." This time Wang Zikai had no objection.

Soon, the three of them arrived at the uncle's house.

The uncle's house is a self-built three-story cement house with a front yard. There are two lush osmanthus trees planted at the door, and the fragrance is overflowing.

There was a dilapidated motorcycle parked in the yard, with two heavy tool bags on it.

The uncle is a plumber and electricity repairman. He is skilled in the business and has a good temper. He often helps some elderly people with plumbing and repair work for free. People in the whole town are full of praise for this enthusiastic "Master Gao".

It just so happens that he is such a good man, but he has always been a bachelor.

In fact, when my uncle was young, he had a love affair that was not widely recognized by the world. He fell in love with a widow who was older than him. The widow also had a son who was in elementary school.

The two really loved each other, but they couldn't stand it. Grandpa Gao Yang firmly opposed it and called the woman a shabby shoe. In anger, the woman took her child and remarried a city man she had just met on a blind date, ending the relationship.

Later, the uncle stopped dating. As he got older, he went on blind dates and had two relationships, but he failed to get married.

Later, the uncle was left. Even now, there are still occasional matchmakers, but the uncle just smiled and said that he could not delay others, and that he had been used to being alone for so many years.

"Yangyang!" The uncle happened to go downstairs and was very happy to see Gao Yang and the other three at the door of the yard: "Is this Xiaoqing? Haha, with her hair cut short, she is almost unrecognizable."

"Hello, uncle." Qing Ling said with a cold face.

The uncle was stunned for a moment: No, Gao Yang’s girlfriend has a very good personality. Why does it look like she’s a different person?

"You two are almost done, come out and have fun, what's the point of arguing over trivial matters." Wang Zikai was possessed by drama.

The uncle was relieved: Oh, it turned out to be a quarrel.

Wang Zikai hurriedly stepped forward enthusiastically: "Uncle, I am Wang Zikai, a classmate of Gao Yang."

"Haha, I know, you are Gao Yang's best friend." The uncle often heard his brother Gao Shou talk about him. "Haha, that's right!" Wang Zikai was very happy: "We came here to play around and just wanted to see my uncle. We often heard Gao Yang mention you..."

Wang Zikai chatted enthusiastically with his uncle.

Gao Yang froze on the spot, a little incredulous: Is he my uncle or your uncle?
Soon the three of them sat down in the hall. The uncle made tea for the three of them and brought out some fruits and biscuits: "There is nothing to entertain at home. I will go to the vegetable market to buy a fish and have a good meal later."

"Uncle, don't bother, we'll leave in a moment." Gao Yang said.

"I'm here to have a meal before I leave. It's time for dinner soon!" The uncle insisted.

"Then excuse me." When Qing Ling mentioned the rice, Qing Ling's frosty face softened a lot.

The uncle was happy: Haha, it seems that the young couple has reconciled.

"Excuse me!" Wang Zikai quickly answered: "I've heard about my uncle's cooking skills for a long time, and I finally have a chance to try it!"

"Haha! Okay, okay, uncle is showing off his shame today." The uncle became more and more happy, took the key and left: "You can sit down wherever you want, I will be back soon."

The uncle went out on his motorcycle.

The three of them took action immediately. Qing Ling quietly checked the uncle's house, looking for clues.

Gao Yang communicated with the other two groups on his mobile phone and followed the progress of the search.

As for Wang Zikai, he crossed his legs, turned on the TV, and cracked peanuts while watching cartoons, completely treating himself as his own home.

After a while, the uncle came back and bought not only fish, but also ribs, beef, crayfish, and soft-shelled turtles, which were completely suitable for the festival.

Gao Yang went to the kitchen to help prepare ingredients. The uncle was very concerned about Gao Yang and asked questions. Gao Yang answered "truthfully", and the uncle felt relieved.

"Grandma loves to eat uncle's cooking, and she comes to stay with you every year." Gao Yang naturally turned the topic to grandma.

"Haha, if that doesn't happen, she just likes the air in the countryside." The uncle smiled.

"Grandma, what do you do every day when you are here?" Gao Yang asked.

The uncle looked up at Gao Yang and still smiled: "Why are you asking this all of a sudden?"

"Yesterday, I dreamed about grandma." Gao Yang lied, but did not say the second part: "Suddenly I miss her so much and want to hear about her."

"Boom boom boom——"

The uncle skillfully chopped green peppers while recalling: "Your grandma wakes up early every morning, goes for a walk, and says hello to the neighbors. Haha, she especially likes to visit the vegetable market. She can't buy much vegetables, so the parents make some inquiries. Dui, especially concerned about whose girl is not yet married, is it possible for me to..."

"Haha."

Gao Yang, who was picking the lobster line, couldn't help but laugh.

This is indeed grandma's style. Although she talks about having children and grandchildren, she actually still hopes that her uncle can start a family. Grandma always says: "For no other reason than that, I just hope that my boss will have a companion when he gets old." .”

"During the day, your grandma watches TV at home and cleans the house. Sometimes when I'm busy, she helps me cook and wash the dishes."

The uncle poured the chopped green peppers into the bowl, his eyes a little red: "As the boss, I have no future, I can't make money, I can't make your grandma happy, and I can't find a wife for her to have grandchildren... ...I am not a good son, I am sorry for your grandma..."

"Uncle, don't say that." Gao Yang felt uncomfortable.

"Haha." The uncle rubbed the corners of his eyes with the back of his hand: "Yeah, why are you talking about this now?"

The uncle picked up the kitchen knife and started to cut the beef. He thought for a while and looked at Gao Yang: "If you don't leave in a hurry, we can go to the top of the mountain to visit your grandma and parents in the afternoon."

Gao Yang's heart twitched, and he nodded: "Okay."
