Chapter 935: The Curse of Fate
That was when he was traveling to China. He passed by a small village. He heard that there was a master in the village who liked to collect antiques. The master was in his 90s, but he was strong. He traveled around the world to collect antiques when he was young. When he was old, he didn't want to stay in the city. He thought the air in the city was not good, so he took his granddaughter to the countryside.
Jiang Da usually has some research on antiques and is considered a fan, so he visited him to see the antiques he paid attention to.
The other party did not turn him out, and welcomed him warmly, and took out all the good things in his hands for him to enjoy.
The old man is a very storied person, and he is not afraid that he will snatch it out for him after watching it. He will put away the things after he finishes watching it.
He smiled and kept him for a meal before he saw him leave.
It was at that time that Jiang Da saw the jade piece.
According to him, the piece of jade and silk was placed in an inconspicuous place at that time, and it could be said that it was randomly thrown on an ancient table and mixed with other not-so-valued gadgets.
Those things seemed to have just been dug out of the soil, and there was a fresh earthy smell on them, and the same was true for the piece of jade.
I don’t know if the old man was too clumsy and didn’t see the value of the piece of jade or he didn’t like that kind of thing at all. The soil on the piece of jade was not cleaned and just placed there.
He saw it before leaving. He originally wanted to take a closer look, but the plane was about to take off and could not stay any longer.
In addition, the old man had no intention of keeping him anymore, so he couldn't go beyond the rules, so he had to leave.
It is precisely because of this that he was just a quick look at it, and he was actually not 100% sure that the thing was the jade and silk of the heavenly book.
Now, I just took the idea of giving it a try and provided this clue to Gu Siqian.
After hearing this, Gu Siqian was silent for a few seconds.
He looked at Jiang Da and asked, "What is his name for the old man you just mentioned?"
Jiang Da said: "His surname is Qiu. I don't know the specific name. I only know that his nickname in the world is Qiu Laogou. He is old or unfamiliar with him. He calls him that behind his back. Even the younger generation who respects him in the local area just calls him Mr. Qiu."
Gu Siqian nodded.
"I understand. Thank you for providing this clue. I will contact you after I verify this clue. If you have any requests at that time, you can directly ask me."
Jiang Da quickly stood up and thanked him for a long time.
"Thank you, Mr. Gu, it goes without saying that the request is my greatest honor if I can help you."
Gu Siqian bent his lips and ignored his polite words.
He sent Oub to send him out before discussing with Qiao Qi.
"How true do you think what he said is true or false?"
Qiao Qi pondered for a moment and said, "I don't think he will lie to us. He looks like a very honest person. It is said that his style has been good over the years. Besides, he dares not lie to you. As for the authenticity of this clue."
She paused and laughed, "Who knows? I got that place and saw that thing."
Gu Siqian nodded, "Then we will set off for China tomorrow."
Qiao Qi was stunned and said in surprise: "So fast?"
"Of course, I have released the news about the Heavenly Book and Jade Silk. Now everyone knows that there are twelve pieces of this thing. Not only Nangong Jin and us, but there must be others.
Since Jiang Da revealed this news to us, it is hard to guarantee that he will tell others that we should take action first.”
Qiao Qi then reacted and nodded, "Okay, then I'll pack up immediately."
"good."
After Qiao Qi went upstairs, Gu Sigan ordered Qin Yue to arrange the vehicles and planes for tomorrow's trip, and at the same time, he called Jing Ning.
Jing Ning was still a little surprised when he received his call.
Gu Sigan did not hide the reason why he was going to China this time, because he knew that since he was in China, they would know no matter what he did.
Rather than being suspicious of each other at that time, it is better to make clear the words from the beginning.
It is related to Qiao Qi's life and death. I believe Jingning and Lu Jingshen will not sit idly by.
Sure enough, after hearing this, Jing Ning agreed immediately and asked them to come first. She and Lu Jingshen would arrange the rest.
Gu Sigan hung up the phone.
As soon as he hung up the phone, Jing Ning pondered for a while, and immediately told Mo Nan to check the matter of Mr. Qiu.
Gu Siddang and the others will not arrive tomorrow. Before that, there are more than ten hours left. She hopes to find some useful news so that she can avoid coming here tomorrow and starting again.
Since this matter is within China, it is not difficult for Mo Nan to investigate.
Soon, she found out the news and came back.
According to Mo Nan's investigation, Mr. Qiu was indeed a very famous antique businessman when he was young.
I have been traveling around the world for decades and saved up a lot of good goods, but I don’t know if it’s because of buying antiques and other things that have damaged too much good deeds or for some other reason.
One of him had two sons and two daughters-in-law, but they all died one after another for some inexplicable reasons.
His wife also died very early. When his son died, he left a child, so he brought the child with him. Later, the child got married and gave birth to a daughter.
I thought this family would always live safely, but I don’t know if there was a curse, so the couple also died in a car accident.
After they died, a girl with her nickname was Xiaohua. Mr. Qiu couldn't bear to see the little girl wandering away, so he just took her with him, but he was afraid that he would defeat her again, so he made her die like her grandparents and parents, so he changed her to a more despicable nickname, Goudan.
In the countryside, a boy named Goudan, and everyone just smiled and didn't think there was anything.
But girls are different.
Xiaohua never admits her name. It is not enough for Mr. Qiu to change her name. She also fostered her at a friend's house in the countryside. She went to see her every once in a while, but she was still running around.
It was not until Xiaohua grew up safely to the age of eighteen. He was homesick. After returning to the countryside, because he was old and had inconvenient to live, he brought this great-granddaughter to his side and enjoyed his youth.
But I didn't know if it was really a curse of fate or something else. The great-granddaughter suddenly disappeared shortly after returning to him.
Yes, it's not death, it's missing.
