Hearing the old man's words, Ye Qing was stunned and asked doubtfully: "Old man, what do you mean by this, do you seem to know me?"
In Ye Qing's memory, this was the first time he and this old man had met. How could the old man recognize him?
However, the old man's words sounded like he not only knew him, but also knew that he was from the Ye family, which was very strange.
The old man looked at Ye Qing and said with a smile: "You and Ye Rui look so similar. If I still can't tell that you are from the Ye family, then I am really blind."
"You are indeed from the martial arts bureau." Ye Qing couldn't help but laugh.
In fact, not many people in this world have actually seen Ye Rui's true face. Most of those who have seen him are the closest people to the Ye family.
And those who can become a member of the Martial Arts Bureau are undoubtedly people trusted by the Ye family.
"Is your grandpa okay?" the old man looked at Ye Qing and asked.
"He has been dead for more than twenty years." Ye Qing said with a wry smile.
Hearing Ye Qing's words, the old man stood up with a swish of his injured leg, and asked excitedly: "How is that possible?"
Obviously, the old man was injured before the catastrophe of the Ye family. When the Ye family suffered the catastrophe, he was probably already living in seclusion here, so he did not know what was happening in the outside world.
"Alas..." Ye Qing sighed and told the old man about the catastrophe that happened to the Ye family.
After listening to Ye Qing's narration, the old man said with a depressed face: "If I had known this, I would not have listened to your grandfather's words. When the Ye family suffered a catastrophe, I could stand with the Ye family, even if I was like this.
My broken body cannot do anything for the Ye family, but at least I can follow your grandfather and not survive for so many years."
"What do you mean, my grandfather ordered you to be here?" Ye Qing asked in surprise.
"Yeah!" The old man nodded and said, "Your grandfather may have noticed that there was a problem with the Xiong family, so he asked me to come to this village."
"What are you doing in this village?" Ye Qing asked with a puzzled look on his face.
"Two of our Dahua troops are stationed near this village," the old man said in response.
"The Sixty-seventh Army and the Fifty-seventh Army, right?" Ye Qing said thoughtfully.
He naturally knows about the military deployment in the southeast.
"Yes." The old man nodded and said: "These are the two most important armies of the Xiong family. If there is any change in these two armies, the old road in front of the village will be the only way for these two armies to pass.
.”
"My grandfather asked you to monitor these two armies here?" Ye Qing asked again.
"It's said to be surveillance, but it's actually because I was injured. Your grandfather sent me here to take care of me. In fact, my job is very simple, which is to record the situation every time two soldiers pass by here.
Just come down." The old man said with a shrug.
"Since it is to take care of you, but your life..." Ye Qing said but stopped talking.
However, the old man understood what he meant. He couldn't help but smile and said: "The members of the Martial Arts Bureau are not officially military personnel, so our identities are not registered with the military department. All the member files of the Martial Arts Bureau are only registered by
The director personally took control of it. The director at that time was your grandfather. After I was sent here by your grandfather, your grandfather would have someone send me daily necessities every once in a while. This lasted for several years, and then no one came again.
pass."
After a pause, the old man smiled bitterly and said: "I originally thought I was abandoned, but now after listening to you, I understand that something happened to the Ye family. If nothing else, the little Gu who delivers supplies every time will
He should also have died in the catastrophe of the Ye family, well... our martial arts bureau is very special, and the contact method has always been a single line of contact, so after the Ye family's incident, no one probably knew of my existence."
"This is wrong!" Ye Qing frowned and said, "Even if something happens to my grandfather, the files of the members of the Martial Arts Bureau should still exist!"
If the files of the Martial Arts Bureau were wiped out in the catastrophe of the Ye family, when my father took over the Martial Arts Bureau, how did he find those members who were outside the Martial Arts Bureau?
"I'm not sure about this." The old man shook his head and said thoughtfully: "Maybe you can ask the current director of the Martial Arts Bureau. He should know the situation."
"I don't know either!" Ye Qing responded with an instinctive smile.
"You?" The old man was stunned for a moment, then asked doubtfully: "Are you the director of the Martial Arts Bureau?"
"Yes!" Ye Qing nodded and said, "I just took over the martial arts bureau a few days ago."
"Who was the previous director?" the old man asked again.
"My father Ye Ruibei!" Ye Qing replied with a shrug.
At this moment, the old man stood up tremblingly and said loudly to Ye Qing: "Chang Hong of the Martial Arts Bureau reports to the director."
Only then did Ye Qing know that the old man in front of him was called Chang Hong. He quickly stood up, helped Chang Hong sit down, and said, "Grandpa Chang, you don't need to be polite to me."
"Etiquette cannot be discarded!" Chang Hong said with a smile.
Ye Qing just shrugged. This kind of thing was more important to these old people, so he couldn't say anything more.
After Chang Hong sat down, he looked at Ye Qing and said, "You can ask your father about the files, he should know."
After Ye Qing nodded, he called his father on the spot to inquire about the relevant situation.
After talking on the phone for a while, Ye Qing put down the phone.
"What did your father say?" Chang Hong asked hurriedly.
Ye Qing could tell that the old man cared about this matter very much, and Ye Qing could understand it. After all, the Martial Arts Bureau was the old man's root. If the files were gone, it meant that the root was gone.
After all, there is no file, so who can be sure that he is from the Martial Arts Bureau?
So what's the point of him sticking to this place for thirty years?
So for the elderly, this is very important.
After Ye Qing glanced at Chang Hong, the corners of his mouth moved, but he stopped talking.
Chang Hong glanced at him and said: "Director, just tell me, no matter what the situation is, I can accept it. After all, I once thought that I had been abandoned by the Martial Arts Bureau, what else can I do?"
Did you accept it?"
To be honest, Chang Hong had such thoughts, and Ye Qing could understand that anyone who had lost contact with the organization for so long would have such thoughts.
However, even though he felt abandoned, Chang Hong still insisted on completing the tasks assigned to him by Grandpa Ye Qing. Even though the situation of the two armies he recorded was no longer known to whom, he still persisted.
Just by virtue of these thirty years of perseverance, this old man deserves to be respected and remembered by this country, right?
