Chapter 190 Mysterious Research (7)

Although I really want to know who this client is, even a layman like me understands the rules of confidentiality. Just like Kurban, he will not easily reveal to others my experience of going to the Tarim Basin. In Ben's parlance, it's work ethic.

So I didn't ask the client's identity, but said: "When you were in a state of amnesia, you still remember to take the sky stone? Could it be that you met your companion later?"

Scimitar nodded and said, "Including me, only two people survived, that place is too dangerous." I felt a little surprised, I didn't expect that Scimitar and his group would suffer so many casualties.

As if he knew what I was thinking, Machete explained, "At that time, Tianshi was still in the ancient city, so the radioactive energy we faced was very large." In the ancient city, the main body of the sky stone has been taken away by the machete, and in the ancient city, what is left is only the residual radioactive energy.

Even these residual energy magnetic fields have made us miserable, not to mention the situation of Scimitar and his party at that time, I am afraid that it is a hundred times more difficult than ours at that time. Such a high death rate is understandable.

"Are you...still in this line of work?"

Machete asked back: "Which line?"

I said: "Hire an expedition team."

Scimitar said: "I do the work I am interested in. Most of the time, I have a serious job." I couldn't help being interested, and said: "Then what do you usually do? Do IT?"

The machete shook the ash, smiled at me, took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to me, then got up and left the private room.

When I saw the business card, I was stunned: Network administrator?This kid is working as a network administrator?Are the network administrators so awesome these days?
It is really difficult for a person who holds a jeweled machete and chops corpses like chopping tofu to be connected with the network administrator. There are so many wonders in the world, how do you say that?The master is among the people!
After figuring out the condition of the scimitar, I settled one thing on my mind. Apart from the progress of Xu Kaiyi's treatment, nothing else matters to me.

As the new year is approaching, due to something wrong with Xu Kaiyi, I will definitely not be able to go home this year, so I have been preparing to go back for the new year.

Li Yu and Xiao Qi stayed behind to work overtime, rushing back at the last minute, Brother Wei has no other relatives, so I invited him to go back with me this year.

Since my parents have moved to Nanchang, I am not going back to my old house for the New Year, but to my home in Nanchang.

The two elders are warm and hospitable people. When they heard that I started a business by myself and Brother Wei was my right-hand man, I was so happy for a while. They praised that I had finally grown up and greeted Brother Wei warmly.

Since Xu Kaiyi and I are both in BJ, as soon as I got home, the two elders would inevitably question Xu Kaiyi's situation, and I continued to lie: "Didn't I call you last time to tell you that he went to Germany on a business trip, and they are doing research. Go to the laboratory One level, often disconnected, don't worry about it."

After I fooled around like this, the two finally felt relieved. After the new year, according to the old customs, they have to pay homage to the ancestors, visit the graves of their ancestors and offer incense.Our hometown is in a small mountain village in Jiangxi, and later we moved to the city when the conditions were good.

I was born late, so I have no impression of my hometown, but Xu Kaiyi stayed in his hometown. There is still an old house in that place, and there are still a few elderly families who are reluctant to move.

The two elders are now old, and their energy is not so sharp, so they asked me to go back to offer incense and visit the graves of the ancestors in the family. Because of the distance, it would take three days to go back and forth without stopping, but this is a tradition. I miss my ancestors. People, we have to obey, so I agreed in a hurry.

He originally wanted to let Brother Wei wander around Nanchang by himself, but he said that he was not used to being alone, so he decided to go back to visit the grave with me.

Our place was not considered remote at first, but with the process of urbanization and the relocation of residents, the once lively villages have gradually lost their popularity. The former farmlands have been converted into forests and forests.The mountain wild animals that had disappeared have also started to move again.

Standing on the high ground, you can see the old villages, lonely old houses, and many houses are wrapped by vegetation.

Brother Wei looked at it for a while and said, "Is that house yours?"

I pointed it out to him and said, "It's probably that one."

He looked confused and said, "Probably?"

I said: "I didn't live here when I was born. I'm not familiar with this area. I used to come back to visit the grave in a hurry during the Chinese New Year. But Xu Kaiyi stayed here before. He knows him very well. When he came back to visit the grave when he was young, he would take it with him I went to the mountains to pick fungus."

While talking, the two of us groped our way to the village along the path between the mountains and fields.

There were fewer people walking, and the weeds on both sides of the path had all grown to the middle of the path, and only a path in the middle could be seen vaguely.The withered and yellow weeds are covered with winter frost, and the air is cool and fresh.

The mountains and fields were all quiet, and Brother Wei and I walked among them, our clothes rubbed against each other, and smoke rose from the village in the distance.

"Let's find someone first, borrow some hoes, we have to hoe the weeds in the grave, and then go to the grave." I planned to pass on my experience of going to the grave to Brother Wei, but Brother Wei laughed immediately and said: You know, I used to guard the cemetery. I don’t understand other things, but I understand going to the grave, and there is a lot of emphasis in it.”

I said: "It seems that I am playing big swords in front of Guan Gong, what should I pay attention to?"

Brother Wei thought for a while, and said: "Take weeding as an example. It's normal for the grave to be covered by weeds if you haven't visited the grave for a long time. , It also takes a certain amount of time, please ask Feng Shui master to look at it before hoeing. For example, bamboo grows on the grave, and bamboo represents literati, so the bamboo on the grave should not be moved casually, otherwise the studies of future generations will be affected. "

I said, "Then let it stay?"

Wei Ge said: "Of course not. If you keep it there, it will grow more and more. Moreover, the roots of the bamboo will grow down all the time. In the end, they may wrap around the bones of the ancestors. Wherever they get entangled, the parts of the descendants will get sick."

I said, "This is all superstition."

Brother Wei said: "Anyway, I'd rather believe in its existence than in its non-existence. When you encounter plants like this that cannot be moved casually, you have to find Mr. Yin Yang to look at them. After looking at them, count the days before they can be eradicated."

I said, "Brother Wei, your idioms become more and more slippery the more you speak, the learning efficiency is quite high."

Brother Wei said modestly: "Stupid birds fly more, stupid birds fly more."

While talking, we circled into the village.
