Mountain and Sea Treasures

Chapter 650 The Secret of the Hou Family

Hou Chengcheng subconsciously shook her head and was about to deny it, but Professor Xu didn't give her a chance, saying that he knew that Minister Hou would meet, so he brought it up at this time.

"What do you mean?" Hou Chengcheng stared at Professor Xu with guarded eyes.

Professor Xu said with a chuckle: "You and I know what Minister Hou has been researching these years, and you also know where I am in Minister Hou's heart. You don't have to hide some things from me, because he must have someone to support his research, and I'm his best supporter."

Hou Chengcheng asked again what Professor Xu meant?
Even we couldn't help but look at him, what does he mean by this, what does it mean that Minister Hou is researching something and needs help?
Lao Yan's complexion has changed drastically, and he directly pulled Professor Xu to tell him that he can't accept that Professor Xu in 701 actually has another identity, even if he is a superior.

The special feature of the 701 department is that it must have 100% trust from the superior department, because all kinds of unexpected situations that occur in each mission are uncontrollable. Without absolute trust, 701 cannot survive at all!Therefore, Lao Yan absolutely does not allow 701 to have undercover agents arranged by the higher authorities.

This is also the reason why 701's core team has always had only a small number of people, because the conditions for selecting people are very strict.

Professor Xu smiled and told Lao Yan not to get excited, saying that he was just providing some information to Minister Hou, but only he or Yazai could provide these information.

After all, the boy is immature and young. I am afraid that Minister Hou will not believe it, so Professor Xu became the only choice.

After all, the title of "Encyclopedia" is not called at will.

But Lao Yan is still pursuing, asking him what kind of information it is?
Professor Xu didn't answer, but turned to Hou Chengcheng and said, "This passage was actually built by the townspeople at the exit and Minister Hou, right?"

The blood color faded from Hou Chengcheng's face, and she nodded helplessly after a while: "Yes, I have remembered it, but I can't say it, I really can't say it..."

Professor Xu slowly stood in front of her, and comforted her: "There's nothing you can't say, you're not to blame for this incident! And your father isn't researching anything shady, so you can just say it."

The emotions that Hou Chengcheng could hold just now completely collapsed in front of Professor Xu, and I just felt incredible when I looked at Professor Xu.It's not that we haven't talked to Hou Chengcheng about these things, but she doesn't listen at all, as if we are all trying to harm her, and finally persuaded her to tell some things, and now it seems that it may not be all of them.

She broke down and cried, and after a long while sobbing, she said that she really didn't know why this happened. Since she entered this passage, she felt uncomfortable, and the familiar feeling had been wrapping her, making her breathless. , From time to time, some fragments will drill into her mind.But she couldn't believe it, and didn't dare to say it, because the involvement in it was too great.

Lao Yan nodded: "Xiao Cheng, please take it easy! We still have to find Xiao Qiu now, you calm down your emotions, and wait for Xiao Qiu to be safe and sound before you consider whether to speak."

"No, she'll be fine." Hou Chengcheng said decisively.

Lao Yan raised his eyebrows, apparently in disbelief, Hou Chengcheng smiled wryly: "This yin-yang array is used to trap me."

"What?" Lao Yan couldn't help it anymore, he sighed deeply, and asked Hou Chengcheng to say everything he had to say, some things don't need a girl to bear.

Hou Chengcheng nodded, and then said that she needed a little time, soon, just a few minutes.

I could see that she wasn't pretending, her emotions had indeed collapsed, so none of us forced her, we just waited quietly.She didn't break her promise. In less than 10 minutes, she calmed down and said slowly: "I hope you don't interrupt me before I finish speaking, otherwise... I'm afraid I won't have the courage to continue."

Naturally, we didn't disagree, and then we only heard her voice slowly sounding in this dark passage. After listening to it, I only felt that the environment she was in might be darker than this passage!

She is Minister Hou's only daughter, but she is not the only child. Before her, Minister Hou had a son. No one knew about it, because the son was born in the small town connected by this passage.

Minister Hou was very happy after giving birth to a son, but for some reason he never thought of taking this son back to Yanjing.Hou Chengcheng didn't understand it when she was a child. She only knew that when she was about three or four years old, Minister Hou would often bring her here and tell her that the little boy was her brother.

But whenever she asked why her brother didn't live with them, Minister Hou was always silent.

She couldn't remember this experience at first, maybe it has been completely erased from her mind, but for some reason, when she saw the light scattered and the yin and yang array opened, these things that should have been forgotten were unexpectedly It appeared very clearly in her mind.

She couldn't believe it, that's why she always treated us negatively in the face of our questioning.

Of course I understand, after all, it is something deep in my memory, and she can't accept it for a while, let alone need to tell us?

But now she said that since the opening of the yin and yang formation, and when Professor Xu said that Minister Hou would meet the yin and yang formation, she had thought a lot about it, and knew that this memory could not be kept secret.

"Perhaps, father asked me to come with you this time because of his intentions!" Hou Chengcheng smiled wryly, saying that Minister Hou didn't have the courage to talk about these past events, so he used her mouth.

That's why I told her about this passage. After knowing this passage, she will definitely arrive at the first moment of crisis, and the rest will be taken for granted.

Hou Chengcheng sighed a few words and continued to fall into memory.

In her impression, this brother is very taciturn, but he is very kind to her and will take her around to play. These are the fun that she will not enjoy with Minister Hou, because although Minister Hou loves her, a big man can have How careful?
Hou Chengcheng never knew who her mother was. It can be said that this brother, who was not a few years older than her, was her deepest dependence when she was young.

Fortunately, Minister Hou never objected to the two of them playing together, but one day she went out with her brother as usual, but his brother suddenly fell to the ground, his whole body twitching.When Minister Hou arrived, before Hou Chengcheng could speak, her arm was pulled up.

"Father rolled up my sleeves and cut my wrist hard with a knife!" Hou Chengcheng murmured, she slowly rolled up her sleeves as she spoke, saying that this is what was left behind back then. If she couldn't remember these things, she really thought she had committed suicide.

Her smile was ironic, saying that her father raised her only for her brother.

My brother got a strange disease, so he couldn't take it back to Yanjing.The father's position is different, with the mission of guarding the national treasure.If the enemies in the dark knew that there was such a son, they would definitely make a fuss about it, and my brother's life would definitely be lost.

So Hou Chengcheng was pushed out. Although she didn't show up in Yanjing's elite circle, she had a very high reputation. Everyone knew that Minister Hou had a daughter who spoiled the heavens, and she would give her almost anything she wanted. what.

With Hou Chengcheng standing in front of him, naturally no one went into Minister Hou's other problems.

But Hou Chengcheng didn't know about this, she only knew that when her father grabbed her arm and cut the knife down, and then handed her hand to her brother's mouth, she only felt fear!
