Chapter 177 The Heart of the Red Leaf
Lin Shaosong's words made me quickly understand his intentions.

In fact, rather than saying that the "expedition" he organized was a "secret excursion" to find the truth about Project 74 and the whereabouts of Xian Yundu, it would be better to say that it was a "journey to pick up girls".

After all, he has already said that Xian Hongye's father is busy earning money and will not participate in the task of searching for his father, and he has left the matter to Lin Shaosong to handle it. The meaning is very clear. This is what the two of them discussed earlier. good action.

In the eyes of this wealthy and virtuous man, finding a relative is trivial, but matching Lin Shaosong and Xian Hongye is true.

After figuring this out, as an outsider, I always feel weird, for Xian Yundu, and also for Xian Hongye.

I really don't know, is it a bad thing for them to have such a son and father who look at "money"... or is it a bad thing?

While I was thinking indifferently, Xian Hongye seemed to be undecided. She frowned and stared at the Taiwan intelligence. After thinking for a while, she raised her head.

She said to Lin Shaosong hesitantly: "Give me some time, I... think about it."

Lin Shaosong seemed to have known that Xian Hongye would answer in this way, so he replied very calmly: "This is a big matter, you should think it over clearly! If you go... just give me a call."

After saying this, Lin Shaosong gave Hongye a French kiss, then turned around and left, and I was left with Xian Hongye standing silently in the golden hall.

I know that Xian Hongye is struggling crazily in her heart. She wants to go to Guizhou to find her grandfather, but she doesn't know whether she should go or not.

After all, she was facing a remote journey into the unknown.

To retrieve my grandfather's body, fulfill my grandmother's last wish, or continue to live indifferently in this bustling city...

She needs help making this choice.

I didn't persuade Hongye immediately, but asked first: "Yezi, how do you feel about your grandfather?"

Hongye smiled wryly, shook her head indifferently and said, "I haven't seen him, so I can't talk about feelings."

I questioned: "Then are you still so keen on finding his whereabouts?"

Hongye was silent for a while, and then she told me some stories about her childhood.

Hongye said that since she was very young, her mother was gone, and she and her father have been dependent on each other for as long as she can remember.

At that time, the condition of Hongye's family was not good, and his father couldn't even buy toys and comic books for Xian Hongye.

So from a young age, Xian Yuhe took his father Xian Yundu's literature and history research cases and notes as a "story book" and read them to his daughter.

Since then, Xian Hongye has been exposed to various bizarre stories and fragments of ancient civilizations that ordinary children and even adults have never been exposed to.

Also because of those fragments, Xian Hongye has been fascinated by literature and history since childhood, and is interested in Xian Yundu's meticulous spirit.

Later, Xian Yuhe was busy with business, and gradually had no time to care about women's education and relationship issues. In order to relieve her depression, Xian Hongye also studied those mysterious topics more deeply.

In this way, Xian Yundu's research deeply took root in her granddaughter's heart, and Xian Hongye also sincerely hoped to carry on her grandfather's last wish and find the legendary "Miaomiao" that was a single tree that was as red as a drop of blood. Xinjiang Goddess Flower".

To put it bluntly, Xian Hongye didn't want her grandfather to die in vain!
After listening to it, I was inexplicably moved.

Isn't the spirit of giving up on the goal what we most lack?
Facing Hongye's tenderness and sadness, I suddenly had the urge to hold her in my arms.

So, I took a step mechanically, with one hand drooping on her shoulder, but just when that evil thought was about to be carried out, I forcibly stopped my stupidity.

She is the girl Wang Hou likes, I don't care if Wang Hou can handle it, I can't touch her anyway!
Soon, I took my dishonest hand back.

My sudden gesture of reaching out and then retracting my hand surprised Xian Hongye.

She withdrew her thoughts from the vortex of memories and looked at me with clear eyes, which also made me extremely embarrassed.

I forced a smile, and then told Xian Hongye: "Go if you want! Going to Guizhou to understand the wishes of several generations of the family is also a kind of experience and understanding."

"But I don't trust Lin Shaosong!" Xian Hongye said to me very frankly: "I don't like Lin Shaosong, and I don't want to be traded like a bargaining chip!"

At this point, Xian Hongye said to me worriedly that she was afraid that she would be controlled by others after joining Lin Shaosong's expedition team, and that Young Master Lin would take the opportunity to bully her, and that the team was also "placed" by Lin Shaosong. She is not good.

Xiao Ye Zi is a woman after all, so it is normal to be a little worried.

After I heard about it, I suddenly felt that the opportunity had come, so I immediately patted my chest and said to Hongye: "Don't worry, I will recommend someone to you. He can ensure your safety. I will definitely let Comrade Hongye, after studying and inspecting, No worries!"

Hongye asked me expectantly, "Who is it?"

"Who else can there be! Wang Hou!~" While speaking, I hastily praised Wang Hou: "You have seen his skills before, and he is the second in the entire military competition! Taking the head of a general among ten thousand troops is like picking something... ..."

Amidst my compliments, Hongye smiled and nodded, and at the same time, there was a trace of inexplicable loss in her eyes.

Then, Hongye asked me directly: "Aren't you going with me?"

"what?"

"Aren't you going with me?"

We fell silent during both of her questionings.

This...why is it so embarrassing to hear.

In fact, speaking of it, I still have a lot of connections with the Miaojiang goddess Hua and the 74 Project B case.

From the emblem on the kitchen knife handed down by the Zhao family ancestors to the diary left by my old squad leader, I know that my master is also studying the issue of Miaojiang Goddess Hua and Ailao Kingdom, but for some reason, he never mentioned it.

The expedition team organized by Lin Shaosong is also an excellent opportunity for me to solve the problem at hand.If I can grasp it, it won't be regarded as a "skillful hand" against that mysterious man, Old Nineteen.

But my old squad leader also told me in my will not to be too curious, not to be reckless when things happen... That's my real concern too!

Undecided, I had no choice but to say to Hongye: "Will you let me go back and think about it? Let's... solve the problem of the kitchen knife first!"

While speaking, I took out the kraft paper-covered kitchen knife that I had been holding in my arms.

I joked to Hongye and said, "This heirloom is dead, so I need to find a good place to keep it."

Xian Hongye looked at the imperial kitchen knife in my hand, slapped his forehead and laughed at himself: "I was so busy chatting, I forgot the business!"

While talking, Xian Hongye sneered at me and said, "I've already thought about the place to keep the kitchen knife for you. Guess where it is?"

I can only shake my head.

"Stupid!..." While speaking, Xian Hongye stomped her feet and said triumphantly, "Just under your feet, there is a vault under the building of this five-star hotel that you never imagined! Put it in there, even the gods can't take it away !"
