"Cang'er, do you know why your aunt gave you this bronze 8-pointed brocade box as a gift, and even though she knew there were only 4 astrolabes in it, she still wanted to tell you that all 8 astrolabes were in it?"
My grandfather may have thought that I was a little undecided, so he asked again.
"She wants me to go to Mustang." I said without thinking.
"No, she wants to use your hands to bring these four astrolabes out of the Dragon Well, so that the people who return to the First Academy can take advantage of them." Grandfather said word by word, as if he wanted me to
Listen clearly.
The inside story is actually like this. No wonder Chen Mo has always asked me to give this 8-point bronze brocade box to my grandfather for safekeeping. It turns out that there is such a reason in it.
"Grandpa, it turns out that this is the case. Will you be in any trouble if I leave this brocade box here?" I looked at my grandfather's silver hair and asked a little worriedly.
"Silly boy, if the Chen family were vegetarians, would they be able to maintain Zhou Lan's 20 years of worry-free life?" Grandfather said.
Hehehe, I giggled a few times.
"Cang'er, the current situation is a bit complicated. Lan'er and Andrew went to the Kunlun Mountains. The purpose is to lure part of the power of the 1st Guiyuan to the Kunlun Mountains and free up some free space for you and Mo'er.
"My grandfather also smiled at me, and then continued.
"When I first heard that Zhou Lan was kidnapped by Andrew, I was extremely worried. It turned out to be a trap. I'm waiting for the person who trapped my uncle to go down. Grandpa, if my uncle fights with you, it's still a long way off."

"Cang'er, no matter which battlefield you are on, you must never underestimate the enemy. If you underestimate the enemy, you will suffer heavy losses." My grandfather heard what I said and said seriously.
"Grandpa, I may still have to go to Mustang. After all, this matter has a lot to do with the Chen family and the Zhou family. I can't just sit back and watch, otherwise, I will not be at ease for the rest of my life.
"I finally made up my mind and said to my grandfather.
"Well done, you are worthy of being a descendant of the Chen family and the Zhou family. Cang'er, remember, you are not fighting alone. I, your grandparents, and Mo'er will all fight side by side with you." Grandfather is also a little bit.
said excitedly.
"My grandma, grandpa, grandma have passed away." I heard my grandfather mention grandma and said with a little loss.
"Xu Danyin was a brat, kind-hearted, but definitely not at the mercy of others. As for her death, it's not absolute. Have you seen your grandma's body with your own eyes?" Grandfather asked.
When I heard this, I almost jumped up: "Grandpa, are you saying that my grandma is still alive?"
"I didn't say that, but I never believed that Xu Danyin would die so easily. Besides, there was that old fox Zhou Shide protecting her by her side," said my grandfather.
With these few words from my grandfather, I suddenly felt relieved.
Maybe grandma's death was one of their moves, who knows.
My grandfather and grandfather are both unpredictable and profound people.
body
The external situation is still unclear, so it is understandable that my grandfather cannot tell me clearly.
"Grandpa, I have another request." I looked at my grandfather and said softly.
"You tell me." My grandfather also had an expression that said, "As long as you can tell me, I can do it."
"Before leaving for Mustang, I want to see my mother. I haven't seen her in three years and I miss her so much." I said from the bottom of my heart.
I thought this was a very ordinary request, but my grandfather looked embarrassed.
After a while, he finally spoke: "Cang'er, I can't promise you this. Since you have decided to go to Mustang, you can only see your mother after you come back from Mustang. But
I promise you that I will take good care of her."
"But grandpa, why is this? Is there any conflict when my mother and I go to Mustang? Are you afraid that my mother will stop me from going to Mustang?" I asked in confusion.
"No, Yun'er will not stop you from going to Mustang, she will support your approach." Grandfather suddenly became a little excited, so much so that he coughed slightly.
"That's why, I think such a request is very ordinary. Since I couldn't see my mother before going to Mustang, then it doesn't matter if I don't go to Mustang. If I don't clean one house, how can I sweep the world? I can't even clean my own mother.
I can't even take care of it, but I have the heart to care about the safety of the people in the world. I shouldn't be that great." My mood rose, and I spoke without hesitation, and even stood up.
"Cang'er, sit down, sit down." My grandfather also stood up and then pressed my shoulders.
"Grandpa," I shouted again, raising my voice.
"I don't let you see your mother. It's for your own good, and it's also for your mother's good. Although your mother's current situation is within the scope of my control, it's not optimistic. Things like illness are actually...
My heart is sick. If she knows that your father has died in Shennongjia, but you have gone to Mustang, and your life or death is uncertain, then she may not be able to hold on for half a day." Grandfather pushed me back on the stool.
After that, he began to persuade me earnestly.
I know what my grandfather said makes sense, but I can't overcome the stubbornness in my heart. And the more he stops me, the stronger my desire to see my mother becomes, and I even have doubts about my grandfather.
Could it be that he has refused to let me see my mother because my mother is no longer alive?
Or because the old stories he told me this morning were slightly different from the facts, that's why he didn't dare to see my mother before I went to Mustang.
In the situation before us, it is really difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood.
After pondering for a while, I felt that my grandfather should stabilize his situation first, and then discuss with Chen Mo to see what the next step should be.
However, after thinking about it this way, I felt that if my grandfather was really sincere towards me in the end, wouldn't it be unreasonable for me to do this?
So, I'm in a dilemma again.
At this time, maybe Aunt Fu saw that our grandfather and grandson didn't speak anymore, so she came over cautiously, and then said: "Old Master, this breakfast is already cold. I'm going to change it for you and Master Zhou Cang."
."
Grandfather raised his head and said softly to Aunt Fu: "Aunt Fu, don't bother, just heat up the red dates and millet porridge."
His two words shocked me immediately.
My grandfather, who had just had such a heated conversation with me, did not throw his temper at Aunt Fu at all.
Many times, details can determine everything. I think that a person who can be so humble to his subordinates will definitely not harm his descendants.
"Grandpa, I listen to you and go to Mustang first." I said, gently holding his hand.
"Good boy, good boy." He also put his hand on the back of my hand.
Suddenly, my grandfather's expression changed, and then he turned the hand that was originally holding mine, and three fingers were already on the pulse of my wrist.
I suddenly remembered that there were still toxins in my body that had not been discharged.
"Cang'er, you are poisoned, do you know?" My grandfather said seriously after taking my pulse.
"Grandpa, I know." I said calmly, and then took my hand back.
"Who has diagnosed and treated you during this period?" Grandpa asked next, with an indescribable anxiety in his tone.
"It's my aunt. She said I was poisoned and had a poison, which is difficult to cure."
At this point, I should be able to rule out the suspicion that my grandfather poisoned me.
"She actually used the Thirteen Needles of the Ghost Gate on you. It seems that I still underestimated the power of Guiyuan." Grandfather said to himself.
From his tone, I could feel that the situation was somewhat serious.
"Grandpa, my aunt did use Guimen Shi3 needles to treat my poison. Is there any problem?" I said timidly.
"Cang'er, you haven't eaten breakfast. Now go to the pharmacy with me immediately." Grandpa said and stood up suddenly.
