#529 - Chapter 529 Yin Yang Fish Jade Pendant
"How did they appear?" Old Qin asked, turning his head after confirming.
"I don't know either. The ground experienced a series of tremors a few hours ago, and then they appeared." Dongfang Chen also didn't understand the reason behind it.
He was completely in the dark and knew nothing.
"What are they doing?" Old Qin asked.
"They are chasing and killing some members of the Manichean sect." Dongfang Chen replied.
"The Manichean sect? The one you mentioned some time ago that might be related to Modo?" Old Qin asked.
"That's right." Dongfang Chen nodded.
"Why are they here?" Old Qin asked.
"I'm not sure either. We didn't notice their presence until these Sand People launched their attack," Dongfang Chen said.
Old Qin nodded, looked at the screen, and said nothing more.
"But I feel that these Sand People have a strong sense of purpose, and they seem to be here specifically for these people," Dongfang Chen added.
"Oh? What's the basis for that?" Old Qin asked.
"There's a replay here. You'll know once you watch it," Dongfang Chen said.
"Okay." Old Qin nodded.
Dongfang Chen brought up the replay, and Old Qin sat down to watch it carefully.
Another half hour passed.
"You're right. These Sand People's actions are surprisingly consistent, clearly heading towards a target." Old Qin also reached this conclusion from the video.
"Do you think there's a possibility that this area is being monitored by some other force, and the purpose of the monitoring is to deal with these Manichean people?" Dongfang Chen asked.
"That's a bold idea, and it's one of the reasons I suggested you come here to investigate," Old Qin said.
"Are you saying that these Sand People are related to… Qin Shi Huang?" Dongfang Chen's tone rose sharply.
Could these two things be connected?
"I didn't say that. Aren't you investigating the truth behind 'digging earth for soldiers'? I'm just giving you a direction; you're the one who connected these two things," Old Qin said.
"I…" Dongfang Chen was speechless.
"Then, when you investigated here more than ten years ago, what did you discover?" He changed the subject.
"How do you know I was here more than ten years ago?" Old Qin looked at him.
"Crap! I let it slip," Dongfang Chen thought to himself.
"Of course, it was discovered through investigation." He quickly covered it up.
"Who told you?" Old Qin asked directly.
"The person who saved you back then." Dongfang Chen didn't say it was Dai Zheng next to him.
Old Qin probably had no impression of who the rescuer was back then.
"The second son of the Shentu family?" Old Qin asked tentatively.
"Ah? Who are you referring to? Commander Shentu?" This was the first time Dongfang Chen had heard this term.
Only those with enough seniority and rank would dare to call him that.
"That's right." Old Qin nodded.
"That's not it. I don't have any personal relationship with Commander Shentu." Dongfang Chen shook his head.
Dongfang Chen's statement was also a bit problematic.
Shentu Zheng Hao was, after all, a high-ranking official. What were you trying to do by having a private relationship with him?
However, Old Qin didn't mind.
As far as Dongfang Chen was concerned, even if he wanted to do something, he didn't need to have a private relationship with Shentu Zheng Hao.
Moreover, Old Qin was the one who pulled strings behind the scenes for him to come to Bayingol.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to fly so many warships around China as if it were his own backyard, right?
Old Qin thought about it and agreed.
In his opinion, Shentu Zheng Hao, with his golden-tongued reputation, would find it difficult to say even one extra word, let alone say something he shouldn't.
"Then who did you hear it from?" Old Qin stared at him intently.
"No, Old Qin, what are you doing? I can't possibly betray my teammates," Dongfang Chen said.
"Is it from the military system?" Old Qin took a step back.
"Are you talking about now or in the past?" Dongfang Chen asked.
"Now." Old Qin replied.
"No!" Dongfang Chen shook his head.
"Heh heh. Since it's not from the military system, why are you protecting him? What, are you afraid I'll eat him?" Old Qin's expression softened.
If it was a retired soldier, then there was nothing to say.
His concern was that the current cadre team was being corrupted and their positions were compromised.
"You're a big shot, Old Qin. I can't dig a hole for my brothers, can I?" Dongfang Chen said with a smile.
"Only a kid like you dares to say that. If it were anyone else, they would have been dragged out and shot!" Old Qin pointed at him and laughed.
"Alright, Old Qin, let's get back to the main topic. What exactly did you discover here before?" Dongfang Chen didn't want to waste time with him.
He got a headache just thinking about the twists and turns involved.
"If I said I didn't discover anything, would you believe me?" Old Qin asked.
"No." Dongfang Chen shook his head decisively.
"The matter is actually not that complicated. More than ten years ago, in the suburbs of Bayingol City, a herding child urinated on a pile of stones and accidentally discovered a beautifully carved jade pendant. The jade pendant was carved with two fish-shaped creatures connected head to tail, one black and one white. After expert analysis, this jade pendant may be the legendary Yin-Yang Fish Jade Pendant," Old Qin said.
