Chapter 220 "Ghost Market" V Part [-]
Rikka looked at me. At this time, the three of us were still sitting on the ground.

Instead, the old man sitting in a wheelchair stood in front of us.

At this time, Li Xia was confused and leaned into my ear and whispered: "Should my grandfather have said it or not?"

In an instant, Rikka put the choice in my hands.

The old man's eyes were studying the watch in my hand at this time, with no intention of moving away.

Both Dahai and Rikka stood up, and they helped me up from the ground.

I whispered in Lixia's ear: "Cheat him."

We know a lot about the tricks of the ghost market, but since Lixia is not from our ghost market, I am really afraid that he will not deceive people.But the next moment I thought that he was a real estate agent and his ability to deceive people was probably not much worse than ours.

Lixia coughed, thought for a moment and said, "My grandfather told me."

The old man came back to his senses, glanced at Rikka and said, "After all these years, the rules are still broken."

"What rules?" Dahai said.

The old man pointed at Lixia and said: "You are Libai's grandson, you have the right to continue chatting with me. That person with the watch in his hand, who are you from Libai?"

"Can't you be a godson?" I said.

The old man pointed his finger to the sea and said, "Where are you, Fatty?"

Dahai froze on the spot and glanced at me and said, "Isn't he also a godson?"

"I'm only talking to one person. This person must be a direct relative of Li Bai and have a watch in his hand." The old man looked at us after he finished speaking.

I glanced at Rikka, sighed, handed the watch in my hand to Rikka, leaned into Rikka's ear and said, "Call me on speakerphone."

Because I had saved my number before, I pulled up Dahai and walked outside.

Dahai looked at me at a loss and said: "You just returned the watch like this? Are you still dragging me away? What are you doing? Aren't you afraid that Li Xia will run away?"

"I'm afraid, but this thing is too weird. I think he knows his own weight alone and needs help. He won't leave us. If I ask you to put it another way, can you face it?" I said.

Dahai nodded, and within a moment he began to shake his head and said: "Of course...it's enough..."

At this time, Dahai and I had arrived at a distant location, watching the old man and Lixia exchanging something.

My cell phone also rang, it was Lixia calling.

I immediately pressed answer and clicked mute on my side.

Dahai said from the side: "Whose phone number is this?"

"Don't ask, listen carefully." I said to the sea and pressed the speakerphone.

The voice came from the hand, very clear.

. . .

"What did you do when you reached into your pocket?" came an old voice.

"Wipe your eyes, isn't this glasses cloth?" Rikka said. Not far away, I saw Rikka taking out something and taking off his eyes.

"When did Libai tell you this?"

"My grandfather is dead." Lixia said.

"Are you talking about a will?"

"That's right." Lixia said.

"Then what are the identities of the two people who came with you?"

"Friend." Rikka said.

"The watch is in their hands?" "My grandfather's friend." Lixia said.

"Things are too messy and I don't want to worry about it. Did you come here today to take the jade pendant away?"

"My grandfather died suddenly. He didn't explain the matter clearly to me. He just asked me to come to you, so I came." Lixia said.

"Let me tell?"

"Yes." Rikka said.

"I think Li Bai means more than that. What he wants most is my jade pendant."

Rikka didn't speak, and I started to get a little nervous.The previous chat should have made a good start, but at this moment it was all interrupted.

Li Xia didn't speak anymore, but the old man's voice came again: "I remember that was the first year when the Japs entered the village, and the seven of us in Beijing joined the army together."

"I have heard my grandfather say this since I was a child," Lixia said.

"Said that? How did he tell you?"

"Anyway, I just said that I would become a soldier and fight against the Japanese." Lixia said.

"What about the details?"

Rikka was silent again, and I remembered something.Lixia seemed to have told us before that when he was a child, he always asked his grandfather to listen to stories, but his grandfather told very little.

The old man said again: "He has never fought a Japanese in his life, and he doesn't even dare to kill a chicken. The seven of us thought we would be trained and sent to the front line to fight, but instead we were escorted all the way to Xinjiang in the northwest."

"Xinjiang? This is different from everything my grandfather said." Lixia said.

"Different? What's the difference?"

"Wait a minute, there are two booklets in my bag. They are all the logs of my grandfather's participation in the war. They explain everything about my grandfather's battle with the Japanese." Lixia said.

"Almost all seven of us have such diaries, and the beginnings of the seven notebooks are exactly the same, because the beginnings of these notes were all written by the captain. Of course, these diaries are not all fake, because they were recorded during the excavation. s things."

Something unearthed?So this is what the gold watch seized from the Japanese devils means?I thought about it, recalling the contents of the booklet.

"Written by one person? Why write these?" Lixia shouted in confusion.

At this time, Li Xia's voice could be heard on the mobile phone a little louder, and it seemed that he was angry.It may be that the previous understanding has been broken, and it is a bit unbelievable at this time.

Dahai was silent next to me at this time, and seemed to be shocked by all this.

"Why are we doing this, you ask? These were all arranged by the state in the first place. To cover up what we are going to guard, the secrecy of all this."

"What is it?" Lixia said.

"Lop Nur."

"Lop Nur?" Lixia repeated.

"From 20 to [-], seven of us were employed as garrison troops for [-] years. We had only one mission, to guard and help excavate the Lop Nur ruins."

"Lop Nur guard? Is your jade pendant a Pisces jade pendant?" Lixia said.

"It seems that you know the Pisces Jade Pendant. Did your grandfather tell you about it before he was alive or something?"

"Pisces Jade Pendant and Peng Jiamu? Isn't your name Han Dong? These are things that can be found online." Lixia said.

"Peng Jiamu? Peng Jiamu is our captain. He is also the writer of the seven diaries. We started writing diaries because our superiors asked us to fake the illusion that the team is fighting against Japan, because the guarding of the Lop Nur ruins cannot be discovered by the world."

"You can still find these online." Lixia said.

"It was inevitable because we disobeyed our superiors. We stole things from Lop Nur and used forged manuals to infiltrate the city protection team in Beijing. This kind of gang is retirement, and then we all have our own destiny. But there are always deviations, and we are separated. The unequal distribution of the spoils then led to the secret being leaked.”

"What do you mean? The watch in my hand is also a product of Lop Nur?" Lixia said.
