"Our family is considered to be a big one, but we are afraid of being taken advantage of by villains, so we are very strict in managing the birth dates of our family members, especially my father's birth dates. Only close relatives know about it. It is impossible for outsiders to find out the date of birth at most.
Know the exact time and direction of birth.”
Lin Qiusheng said.
"To be more specific, how many people know?" Li Muchen was reluctant.
"I, my wife Huimin, my daughter Manqing, my cousin Lin Laifeng, and my cousin's son Lin Shaoheng." Lin Qiu Sheng said the names, "That should be it. Even my son Lin Yun doesn't know, my cousin
I have a young son studying abroad in Japan, so I probably don’t know about it.”
"And me." Lin Chanming said beside her.
"Where's the housekeeper?" Li Muchen asked.
Lin Qiusheng said: "The housekeeper doesn't know, but if they are willing, it won't be difficult to get it."
He added: "The housekeepers in the Lin Mansion are all old people who follow us. As for Butler Luo and you... there may be some misunderstanding."
Li Muchen didn't believe in any misunderstanding, but a small person like Luo Mingsha didn't take it to heart.
"The old man was cursed by evil spells such as nail-headed arrows."
"Book of Nailhead Arrows?" Lin Qiusheng had never heard of it.
"That's right, the caster sets up the altar, pricks a scarecrow, writes the old man's birth date, and pricks it with needles or shoots arrows every day. Generally, in about seven days, the cursed person's soul will disappear."
"ah!"
Lin Qiusheng was shocked.
Lin Chanming couldn't help but frown.
Only Lin Shangyi laughed after hearing this.
"I didn't expect that my old life would almost be crucified on a straw man. After living a lifetime, I can still see such magic. It's not a waste of my life."
Lin Shangyi's boldness and freedom made Li Muchen a little impressed.
It seems that this old man is really no ordinary person.
Lin Qiusheng asked: "Is my dad okay now?"
Li Muchen shook his head and said: "I just used my true energy to renew the old man's life. If we want to completely solve it, we must find the person who cast the spell and break his spell."
"Here, where should we find it?" Lin Qiusheng had no clue.
"You don't have much time. I can continue to help the old man live, but if the old man is fine for three to four days at most, that person will notice." Li Muchen reminded.
"What will happen?"
"Two possibilities. The man found out that the matter was exposed and disappeared. In that case, you may never know who wanted to harm the old man. Of course, this is good. After all, the old man's life is not worried. But there is another possibility that the man is determined.
If he wants to kill the old man and finds that the nail-headed arrow book is ineffective, he will probably take more radical measures, such as blood sacrifice, using human blood to enhance the effect of the spell, and using half of his own life in exchange for one of the old man's life."
"Ah?!" Lin Qiu Sheng was shocked, "Then, can you stop it?"
Li Muchen shook his head and said: "It's hard to say, you can't even find anyone, how can you stop it?"
Lin Chan chimed: "It seems that we can only start with the traitor."
Lin Qiusheng punched him hard: "I will definitely find that person out and cut him into pieces!"
Lin Shangyi waved his hand: "Okay, don't mess up because of this, and do your job well. I can relax now, and I am satisfied. Next, I have something to say to Mu Chen. The cicadas are chirping, the autumn sound is coming,
You guys go out first."
Li Muchen reminded: "You two, don't mention what you just said to anyone. The four of us only know the old man's true situation. If others ask, let them ask me."
When Lin Chanming and Lin Qiusheng went out, Li Muchen's heart was filled with anticipation.
Because he knows that some mysteries that have troubled him for many years are about to be revealed.
Lin Shangyi looked at him and didn't speak for a long time.
Li Muchen was not in a hurry.
After practicing in Tiandu for so many years, I still have this kind of concentration.
Lin Shangyi nodded slightly:
"You must have a lot to ask me, right?"
"yes."
"Then just ask?"
Li Muchen was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized that he didn't know where to start asking.
After thinking for a long time, he asked the question he was most concerned about:
"How did my grandfather die?"
Lin Shangyi didn't expect that he would ask this directly, and asked curiously: "Shouldn't the thing you are most curious about be the marriage that your grandfather and I have agreed on?"
"Is there any connection between these two things?" Li Muchen's eyes were sharp.
Lin Shangyi knew that he had misunderstood, and sighed: "I am somewhat responsible for your grandfather's death. I have felt guilty about this for many years, especially after you disappeared."
Li Muchen narrowed his eyes and stared at Lin Shangyi closely.
If, as suspected, grandpa deceived Lin Shangyi in order to get the marriage contract, which led to his death, he would not hesitate to slap Lin Shangyi to death on the bed to avenge his grandpa.
"This matter is a long story."
Lin Shangyi looked at the ceiling, his eyes blurred, as if he had seen the distant past.
"More than forty years ago, the Lin family suffered a catastrophe. In order to escape from my enemies, I fled to the capital alone. But my enemies still found me. I was desperate at that time. When my life was hanging by a thread, the head of the Li family in the capital
Li Tiance saved me.
At that time, the Li family in the capital was one of the four major families in the capital, and Li Tiance was known as the richest man in the world. With the protection of the Li family, my enemies would naturally be unable to do anything to me.
Later, I returned to Hecheng and relied on the money that the Li family helped me to make a comeback, allowing the Lin family to regain its former glory.
I have always wanted to repay the Li family for saving my life. But the Li family is the richest in the world, so how could I find the opportunity?
Unexpectedly, twenty years ago, the Li family suffered a sudden change, and almost overnight, the entire family disappeared from the capital."
Li Muchen vaguely guessed why Lin Shangyi mentioned the Li family in the capital, but he couldn't believe it.
"What happened to the Li family?"
"I have no idea."
Lin Shangyi shook his head and said.
"In those years, I also inquired about the Li family, and the information I received was mixed. No one could tell clearly what happened. I thought that I would never have the chance to repay the Li family's great kindness. Until one day
, your grandfather came to Hecheng."
"My grandfather?"
"That's right, your grandfather Li Youquan. He was dressed in rags at the time, like a beggar, and he had a child with him. That child was you, Li Muchen."
"You -" Lin Shangyi looked at Li Muchen with a solemn expression, "you are from the Li family in the capital. Your father's name is Li Yunhua, who was the number one son in the capital at that time, and Li Tiance is your biological grandfather."
No matter how strong Li Muchen was, his heart started to beat wildly when he heard this.
"My grandfather? Then, where is my grandfather?"
"Li Youquan is not your grandfather, he is a close confidant of your grandfather Li Tiance. According to Brother Youquan, your grandfather Li Tiance had a premonition before something happened to the Li family, and asked several reliable confidants to take care of the Li family's children.
Relatives and friends who have fled to various places. Li Youquan took you with him, and the person he fled to was the Lin family in Hecheng."
"So, there are still my brothers elsewhere?"
Lin Shangyi shook his head: "It should be gone. You and Youquan can survive because I have not had any contact with the Li family in the twenty years since I returned to Hecheng. Perhaps it is because of this that Mr. Li let
Brother Youquan brings you to join me."
"Brother Youquan is very cautious. Although I have no contact with the Li family, people who are interested can still find out that I have been favored by the Li family. So he took you and lived in the suburbs of the city, making a living by picking up rags.
For this, I have always felt guilty. Later, I made a marriage arrangement with him and agreed that when you grow up, you will be the son-in-law of the Lin family. As early as seventeen years ago, I had already made the marriage arrangement through a lawyer.
According to the will, after you marry Manqing, you will receive half of the Lin family’s property."
