Chapter 111 Grandparents and Grandchildren Reconciliation
Chapter 111 Grandparents and Grandchildren Reconciliation
Gong Hongye sat there quietly, his thoughts drifting back to those distant past years. His eyes were fiery and focused, as if he wanted to see through Lin Qiqi to the scenes hidden deep in his memory.
However, he was completely unaware that every word and every thought in his mind was simultaneously interpreted by the ice cream cone and fell into Lin Qiqi's ears without reservation.
Lin Qiqi's face seemed calm, but in fact her heart was already in turmoil.
She had imagined countless possible scenarios regarding Yun Qing's mysterious grandfather: perhaps he was just an advanced program carefully created by Yun Qing; or perhaps his body had been taken over by someone else...
But what she never expected was that Yun Qing and the Gong family had actually been under the control of the plot power in this tattered book!
What shocked Lin Qiqi even more was that the creator Yun Qing seemed to have anticipated this potential crisis and had prepared a response plan in advance.
That's why Datou was arranged to guard Baiyun Village.
Every year, the young Xiao Yunqing would go to Baiyun Village to deliver various items to Datou as instructed. Behind this seemingly ordinary action was actually the repeated strengthening and repair of the program running by Datou, with the purpose of preventing him from being interfered with or even wiped out by the power of the plot.
Lin Qiqi took a deep breath and slowly asked, "Grandfather, is there something crucial you haven't told Yu Aqing yet? For example, about the Gong family curse?"
As soon as the words fell, Gong Hongye trembled all over as if struck by lightning. He stared at Lin Qiqi with wide eyes, muttering to himself in disbelief: "She...how could she know this?"
Yun Qing's face was filled with confusion. He looked at Lin Qiqi and then at his grandfather. Curse? What curse? Why had he never heard of it before?
Lin Qiqi saw his confusion and gently squeezed Yun Qing's hand, giving him a little comfort and support.
Then, Lin Qiqi raised her head and looked fearlessly into Gong Hongye's deep and majestic eyes. She said slowly, "To be honest, I have some knowledge of the mysterious arts. Ever since I set foot in this villa, I have keenly sensed some unusual auras. So, I made some calculations and wanted to explore the mystery."
After hearing this, Gong Hongye did not express too much entanglement or doubt, but nodded calmly, and then told Yun Qing everything that had happened before in detail without hiding anything.
Yun Qing listened quietly, his heart surging with emotion. He was stunned to learn the truth—a mysterious, invisible, and intangible curse. However, he reconsidered, realizing that even such an incredible rebirth as his own could be personally experienced, then even the most bizarre things might not be completely unacceptable.
Although the matter has been thoroughly discussed, the awkward atmosphere between the grandfather and grandson is still like a thick layer of ice that is difficult to melt.
In fact, it’s not their fault. After all, there has been a gap and misunderstanding between them for so many years. How easy is it to eliminate these negative emotions all at once?
At this moment, Lin Qiqi coughed softly, trying to break the deathly silence. She smiled faintly and whispered to Gong Hongye, "Grandfather, based on the signs I've observed from you, your daughter, A-Qing's mother, should still be alive."
As soon as he finished speaking, Gong Hongye suddenly stood up as if he had been electrocuted. In his haste, he even accidentally bumped into the teacup in front of him, causing the tea to splash everywhere. His eyes widened, his face full of disbelief, and he asked in a slightly trembling voice, "Really...really?"
Lin Qiqi nodded solemnly and said with a serious expression, "That's right, but her current condition is truly worrying and not optimistic! And the situation with Aqing's biological father is equally dire. Now, they are both in the same place."
After saying that, Lin Qiqi carefully took out an exquisite porcelain bottle from her arms and gently handed it to Yun Hongye.
She solemnly instructed Yun Hongye, "As for the Yun family and the capital, leave the many matters here to me and Aqing. As for their affairs, Grandfather, you should handle them personally! As far as I know, they should be in the valley about sixty miles south of Nanping. There are pills in there that can save lives. When you find them, make sure they take them first. Saving their lives is the most important thing!"
Lin Qiqi then added, "According to my speculation, they are most likely imprisoned in a rather large mine. I'll carefully mark the specific location on the map in a moment. However, there is one thing you must remember - if you are not absolutely sure, do not act rashly and force them out of that place to avoid unexpected danger."
Hearing this, Gong Hongye tightly gripped the medicine bottle in his hand, anxious and anxious, wishing he could set off immediately to find his missing daughter.
Yun Qing's lips trembled slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he couldn't utter a word.
Lin Qiqi's sharp eyes caught this subtle movement, and she already knew that he was full of doubts at the moment.
She leaned slightly closer to Yun Qing and explained softly in a low voice, "I just asked Ice Cream Cone. That place is also under a powerful barrier. Ice Cream Cone can't directly deliver us to our destination with its abilities, and even getting close is difficult. In comparison, it's easier for Grandpa and the others to get close, and it's less likely to alert them."
Speaking of this, Lin Qiqi couldn't help but frown. She really couldn't understand why there was such a mysterious and difficult-to-reach place when she had clearly reached an agreement with the Heavenly Dao before?
Fortunately, she was certain the two men were not in immediate danger. Therefore, sending Gong Hongye to investigate was the most appropriate decision. Firstly, it would provide an opportunity to ease the long-standing rift between father and daughter; secondly, if all went well, perhaps they would even receive a pleasant surprise!
Although there were mouth-watering delicacies in front of them, no one had the appetite to enjoy them at this moment.
Lin Qiqi quickly found a map, carefully marked the relevant locations, and handed it to Gong Hongye. Gong Hongye took the map and did not hesitate for a moment. He turned around and hurried away, gathering his trusted men to prepare for the operation.
Lin Qiqi and Yun Qing did not stay in Anning Villa for long. After packing up a bit, they set out on the journey back to the capital.
Since the plot has gone out of control, how it develops next depends on how the two of them deal with it.
When they arrived at the city gate, Yunshan was already waiting there in his carriage. Not long after, they returned to the Yun Mansion.
I had just returned to Yunqingyuan and had no time to rest when Yunhai arrived and brought a message from the Imperial Teacher Mo Yun.
At this moment, Lin Qiqi suddenly remembered that Mo Yun had previously detained a demon! Now that the Imperial Master had taken the initiative to send a letter, he must have made some new discoveries about the demon or had important information to share with them. Thinking of this, Lin Qiqi didn't dare to delay. After exchanging a glance with Yun Qing beside her, she decided to set off immediately for the Imperial Master's residence.
However, on the way to the Imperial Tutor's Mansion, Lin Qiqi felt exhausted both physically and mentally. For a while now, so many things had been happening one after another, as if they would never be finished. There was hardly a moment's rest, not even a moment to catch her breath or rest.
Although they appeared to have a number of clues, the events were happening so rapidly that they had no time to analyze them carefully. Often, before one problem was resolved, a new one would pop up. It was as if they were being led around by the nose, completely losing control of the overall situation.
At this moment, Lin Qiqi couldn't help but turn her head and look at Yun Qing beside her. Looking at that overly beautiful face, her desire to immediately restore her memory became stronger.
Although there was no evidence, Lin Qiqi's intuition told her that the reason why her rhythm was disrupted so frequently and she was always in a passive situation was all because Yun Qing, the creator of this world, had set up many restrictions in this incomplete world in the book.
Yun Qing was actually so powerful that she was really looking forward to it.
