Seventy Buddha Cannon Fodder

Chapter 242

Gu Mingdong arrived in Beijing all the way from Shanghe Village. After getting off the bus, he didn't rest, and went straight to the school.

It happened so coincidentally that just as he got off the bus on his front foot and was walking towards school, he saw his two sons on his back foot. Ah Chen's arm was scratched, and his clothes were stained red with bright red blood.

"Injured?" Gu Mingdong stretched out his hand to hold his son's arm and looked at it. He was relieved to make sure that it was only a skin injury and did not hurt the inside. "Go to the hospital first."

Gu Liangchen, who was always rebellious in front of Wei Cheng, appeared extraordinarily docile in front of Gu Mingdong, and explained: "A little injury, Dad, you can accompany me to the hospital."

Gu Liangxing turned around tacitly, just happened to block Gu Mingdong's view of Wei Cheng.

Being blocked by the twins, Wei Cheng smiled wryly in his heart, wondering when he would become a shameful person.

Gu Liangchen reached out to hold his father's hand, intending to take him to the hospital: "Dad, why did you come here suddenly? Is there something wrong at home?"

Gu Mingdong glanced back, his eyesight was excellent, it was so obvious that Wei Cheng was in a wheelchair, he naturally saw it at a glance.

"Let's talk about it later." Gu Mingdong said.

Just before leaving, he looked back at Wei Cheng and nodded slightly.

Noticing his father's movements, Gu Liangchen pursed his lips and asked hesitantly, "Dad, you..."

Gu Mingdong smiled and patted his forehead: "I said a long time ago, as long as you are willing, then we will be father and son for the rest of our lives."

The stone that had been hanging in his heart fell, Gu Liangchen couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, and asked a little embarrassedly: "Dad, do you really not care?"

"Stupid boy, what's the point of caring about this? If I want to care about something I knew 800 years ago, why should I ask for trouble?" Gu Mingdong said helplessly.

After hearing this, Gu Liangchen didn't know whether to be happy or unhappy.

Gu Mingdong was relieved when he went to the hospital and treated the wound briefly. The doctor ensured that no bones or tendons were injured.

Gu Liangchen looked at Gu Mingdong and saw that he really didn't look unhappy, so he couldn't help asking: "Dad, are you not afraid that we will follow others? Then your 20 years of hard work will be in vain."

Gu Mingdong laughed: "As a father, you have to have some confidence in your son."

These words made Gu Liangchen happy, and said with a bit of coquetry: "He didn't know where he got the news, and suddenly appeared in front of us. These days, he is rushing to please, and he doesn't know what his intentions are."

"But dad, don't worry, no matter what he says, I'm still your son."

"The few people who blocked the road and robbed today probably have something to do with him."

Gu Mingdong had no choice but to explain: "Today's disaster may have nothing to do with him."

The relationships involved with those people are so complicated that Gu Mingdong didn't know where to mention it.

Gu Liangchen reacted very quickly, pointing to the top of his head: "Is it something about the mountain?"

Gu Mingdong did not hide it from him, and explained the general context: "The grievances and hatreds of the ancestors are now implicating you."

Gu Liangchen frowned: "Dad, will you be in danger then?"

Gu Mingdong laughed: "Don't worry about me, a few people are not my opponents, they are all sent to the police station."

Gu Liangchen breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "But what if there are people coming in the future? There is no one who can guard against thieves for a thousand days."

Faced with his son's worries, Gu Mingdong smiled and said, "I can handle it, but you are far away in Beijing, which makes people worry."

Gu Liangchen jumped up suddenly: "Oops, they found us, will they attack Auntie and Xiaoyun?"

Gu Mingdong grabbed him: "Don't worry, I've already visited them."

It's just that he was very irritable in his heart. If the Du family only targeted him, then Gu Mingdong would naturally be fearless, but now that they are targeting other Gu family members, it is impossible for Gu Mingdong to stay with them all the time.

The two of them took the medicine and were about to leave the hospital when they saw the man in the wheelchair at the door.

Gu Liangxing took his assistant to send them to the police station, and Wei Cheng came to them with a wheelchair.

Seeing the person coming, Gu Liangchen subconsciously frowned and took a step forward.

Gu Mingdong patted his son's arm to comfort him, and his eyes fell on Wei Cheng.

This is the first time the two have met, but they are not strangers to each other. Gu Mingdong's impression of Wei Cheng stays in the message left by Li Lijuan. Seeing him now, it is not surprising that Li Lijuan chose back then.

Wei Cheng was slightly surprised when he saw Gu Mingdong clearly.

He thought that Gu Mingdong, who raised the twins without any grievances, should be an honest and honest rural man, but now he saw that Gu Mingdong's eyebrows and eyes were clearly sharp, and he looked extremely young, which was completely different from his imagination.

"Hi, I'm Wei Cheng."

"Gu Mingdong."

The palms of the two were divided as soon as they were held. Gu Mingdong spoke first: "Shall we talk?"

"Dad?" Gu Liangchen didn't understand.

But he has always been unable to hold Gu Mingdong back. Soon, he sat aside with drooping eyebrows. In a park not far away, Gu Mingdong and Wei Cheng were sitting face to face.

Wei Cheng smiled slightly: "Anyway, I should thank you."

"This is what I am willing to do, and I don't need anyone's thanks." Raising two children to grow up is not only the original owner's choice and hope, but also Gu Mingdong's own choice, and has nothing to do with the people in front of him.

Wei Cheng smiled bitterly: "But as their biological father, I should thank you, you have educated them very well."

Gu Mingdong raised his brows slightly, because Wei Cheng restrained himself, and it was difficult to hide that he was a very aggressive person, such a gossiping attitude was not suitable for them.

Wei Cheng explained: "I don't mean anything else, I just want to express my gratitude."

Gu Mingdong glanced at him, and suddenly asked: "The Wei family, is it the Wei family, one of the three families of Gu Wei and Xie?"

Wei Cheng's complexion changed suddenly, and the originally restrained sharpness leaked out, and the eyes staring at Gu Mingdong were no longer so kind.

"Don't be so nervous." Gu Mingdong smiled.

The vigilance in Wei Cheng's eyes remained unabated: "How do you know my identity?"

"You are the Gu family? This is impossible, they are clearly..."

Gu Mingdong shrugged: "I'm not from the Gu family."

Before seeing Wei Cheng, Gu Mingdong didn't expect that there would be unexpected surprises on this trip, but it was lively, the Du family couldn't hold back, and Wei Cheng actually came back.

Now the people who should be on stage are all complete.

Wei Cheng's heart was full of turmoil. It has been too long since what happened back then, but the pain of the past is still vivid in his memory.

Gu Mingdong said, "You think the person who came to intercept Ah Xing Ah Chen today is your competitor abroad, right?"

Wei Cheng has been ruthless in these years and has made many enemies, so he is naturally so skeptical in his heart.

"Is not it?"

"It's understandable for your competitors to target Ah Xing and Ah Chen, but it's impossible to travel thousands of miles to kill me, right?"

Wei Cheng is not a fool, Gu Mingdongfang's few simple questions are enough for him to guess a lot.

"Do you know who it is?"

Wei Cheng's eyes were cloudy: "It's been 20 years, and I still don't know who is so cruel, to let the Wei family do nothing."

Gu Mingdong looked at him and asked, "So, do you want revenge?"

Gu Liangchen stood beside the flowers, subconsciously tugged at the willow leaves next to him, and in a short while pulled out a branch.

He wished he could prick up his ears to hear what was being said there, but both of them were his fathers, so he was not allowed to listen.

When Gu Liangxing came over in a hurry, he saw his younger brother pretending to be Sister Lin over there.

"Ah Chen, what are you doing? A good willow tree is going to be bald."

Gu Liangchen shyly withdrew his hand.

Suddenly, Gu Liangxing also saw the situation over there, subconsciously grabbed his younger brother, and his voice changed: "What's wrong, why did our dad talk to him?"

"What are they talking about? That Wei Cheng who looks at the monkey spirit and the monkey spirit, will he pretend to be pitiful and let our father give up his son to him?"

Gu Liangchen gave him an elbow: "Get up, what are you thinking about?"

But Gu Liangxing said: "Don't believe it, it's written like this in the books. You see, he has gray hair, is too old, and can't walk on both legs. How pitiful he looks. If he cries, makes trouble and hangs himself again, we Can Dad take it?"

"What book are you reading?"

"Many books are written like this."

Gu Liangchen suspects that this elder brother has read a lot of banned books behind his back, and it is an ethical drama that the little girl likes, and he seems to have grasped the evidence.

"No, I have to go over to help." Gu Liangxing wanted to go over.

Gu Liangchen grabbed him: "Don't go, Dad agrees."

"Oh, why don't you stop me." Gu Liangxing scratched his hair a little irritably.

Suddenly, Gu Mingdong slapped his son on the back of the head: "What are you doing, scratching your ears and cheeks."

Gu Liangxing was startled, turned around and smiled: "Dad, are you done chatting?"

As he said that, he still turned his eyes towards them, as if to see if Wei Cheng's eyes were red and crying pitifully.

However, Wei Cheng only saw Gu Mingdong getting along with the twins intimately, and every expression and movement would only appear from a few close father and son.

Gu Mingdong noticed Wei Cheng's situation, thought for a while, and said: "This is your Uncle Wei."

Wei Cheng's expression froze, he didn't expect him to say that, although he wasn't called dad, but calling him uncle was better than the current two children who refused.

"Wei... Uncle Wei?" Gu Liangxing was a little confused.

Gu Liangchen reacted quickly, his eyes swept over the two of them, and he quickly said, "Uncle Wei."

"Uncle Wei."

Wei Cheng's eyes flashed brightly: "Okay, okay, I happen to be free, why don't we all have a meal together."

After saying this, he actually looked at Gu Mingdong.

Gu Mingdong had just reached an alliance with him, so naturally he would not object: "Let's go together."

At the dinner table, Wei Cheng became a chatterbox, pulling Gu Mingdong to talk endlessly, leaving the assistant next to him dumbfounded.

He secretly thought in his heart that his boss was always reticent and resolute when he was outside. He never thought that he would be so sympathetic with the child's other adoptive father. Is this the fate that the Chinese say?

The twins were also very surprised. Gu Liangxing suppressed his voice and said to Gu Liangchen, "Am I dreaming? In the blink of an eye, our dad and him will become brothers."

Gu Liangchen also felt strange, and stretched out his hand to pinch his elder brother's thigh hard.

Gu Liangxing let out a cry of pain, and slapped his hands away: "Get up, get up, it hurts me to death."

Now he no longer doubted that it was fake.

A meal can barely be regarded as a feast for the guests and the host.

As a result, after a day, Gu Mingdong planned to go back.

Gu Liangchen couldn't help but want to keep him: "Dad, you've come all over here, if you stay here for a few more days, we can take you around."

"Your words are exactly the same as those of the third and fourth younger sisters." Gu Mingdong smiled, shook his head and said, "You came out too quickly, and the family didn't explain much. Since you are fine, I will go back."

Gu Liangchen had no choice but to send him to the station, but before he left the school, Wei Cheng's car drove up first.

"Go back, Wei Cheng will just send me off." Gu Mingdong waved his hand.

Seeing the car drive away, Gu Liangxing hooked his younger brother's shoulders and sighed: "It's better to have money. If we have money, let's buy a car and deliver it ourselves. There is no need for him."

Gu Liangchen also thought so in his heart.

"Hey, you said yesterday that Dad was still in a hurry, why did he suddenly become less anxious after a day?" Gu Liangxing asked.

Gu Liangchen said helplessly: "This is not something obvious."

On the other end, Wei Cheng sent Gu Mingdong all the way to the train station. There was no traffic jam on the road, but the speed of the car was not fast, and he had to give way to pedestrians from time to time.

When he arrived at the place, Gu Mingdong got out of the car with a simple salute: "Let's go, no need to send it off."

Wei Cheng nodded and didn't get out of the car, but said, "Don't worry, with me here, the Gu family in Beijing will be fine."

"Okay, then I'll leave it to you." Gu Mingdong waved his hands very simply.

Sitting in the car, Wei Cheng watched Gu Mingdong enter the station until he turned his head and said, "Let's go."

The assistant started the car, turned around and said, "Boss, this Mr. Gu doesn't look like an ordinary person."

Wei Cheng's eyes were gloomy, Gu Mingdong was naturally not an ordinary person, and ordinary people would not know so much.

It's just that he never expected that the Wei family's catastrophe back then was actually caused by such ignorance.

Too much time has passed, and the Wei family has long since left the traces of their ancestors. Even he knows little about that period of history. Unfortunately, he doesn't know, but others will not let him go.

"The Wu family!" Wei Cheng laughed back angrily.

That was really his good friend and neighbor. If he hadn't met Gu Mingdong, how could he have suspected Wu's family.

Wei Cheng wouldn't believe Gu Mingdong's words, but the balls of wool that were in a mess back then now have a thread, so it's much easier to sort it out.

The more things he found out, the more Wei Cheng gritted his teeth with hatred, just to borrow luck, because of superstitious thoughts, he was about to kill his living relatives.

What's even more ridiculous is that he didn't even realize who the murderer was all these years.

Wei Cheng closed his eyes slightly, leaned on the back of the chair, but the corners of his mouth were drawn coldly.

Now that he knew, he would never let it go, and it was time to repay the blood debt back then.

Du family, Qian family, Wu family, he will not let anyone go.

Thousands of miles away in Xiangjiang, Wu Jie was dealing with a difficult matter, but he suddenly trembled.

"Second Brother, what's the matter?" Wu Mengting lost a lot of weight, her face was withered and yellow, and most of the rosy complexion and beauty that she had cultivated after coming to Xiangjiang had been lost.

She was like a frightened bird, seeing a slight change in Wu Jie's face, she trembled with fear.

Wu Jie couldn't express the sense of crisis just now, he frowned and said, "It's okay, you don't need to take care of my affairs, just be optimistic about Qian Zhiyi."

Wu Mengting turned her head to look at Qian Zhiyi who was on the bed. He is currently hanging on the ventilator, and he may die at any time.

After enduring and enduring, Wu Mengting still couldn't help asking: "Second brother, he is already like this, and he must not live long. Can't we leave here with the money?"

The former relationship has long been exhausted, and Wu Mengting doesn't want to be with the half-dead Qian Zhiyi at all.

Wu Jie sneered: "Idiot, do you think the Du family is so easy to mess with?"

Wu Mengting suddenly lowered her head.

Wu Jie continued: "That Du family is cruel and merciless, I'm afraid you will take their money and spend it instead."

"But... aren't they too busy to take care of themselves now?"

Wu Jie narrowed his eyes: "Hurry up and get rid of those stupid ideas, or I won't be able to save you."

After saying this, he was too lazy to talk nonsense with this useless younger sister. Wu Jie even began to regret that he shouldn't have spent so much effort to bring her here.

Obviously it shouldn't be like this, when he calculated, the luck of this stupid younger sister was only lower than Qian Zhiyi.

Wu Jie's eyes fell on Qian Zhiyi, too, since the master was about to die, Wu Mengting naturally had no effect.

Thinking of this, Wu Jie was also upset for a while, and left the hospital quickly.

When he returned to the Banshan villa, he heard voices inside before entering the door.

"Dad, our family's business has plummeted recently, and there are problems everywhere. My son really can't control it, so I have to ask you to come and see." Du Zhen said.

Patriarch Du only said, "Just keep an eye on it."

Du Zhen frowned: "Dad, if this continues, those people are afraid they will bite off a piece of meat from the Du family."

Du Pingping also said: "Yes, Dad, what is more important than this?"

Patriarch Du was very impatient: "Let you make decisions on your own, if I have to come forward for trivial matters, what's the use of asking you to come here."

The faces of the pair of children were ugly, but Patriarch Du continued to say: "Is there anything else, if not, go quickly, don't delay my business."

Du Zhen endured and endured, but he didn't say anything.

But Du Pingping couldn't help it: "Dad, those are all feudal superstitions, you can't believe them, and doing business depends on your own ability. What's the use of doing those things?"

Unexpectedly, these words angered Patriarch Du, and he slapped him abruptly: "Shut up, you rebellious girl, I should have picked you up today if I knew it earlier."

Du Pingping covered her cheeks and looked at her father in disbelief.

Du Zhen quickly grabbed her sister: "Dad, my sister doesn't mean that. She's just worried about our Du family."

"Aren't I worried? You don't know anything. The real root of the disease lies in Shanghe Village. It's in the Gu family. I tried my best to save you. You blame me for feudal superstition."

The head of the Du family snorted coldly: "If I wasn't superstitious, how could the Du family be where they are today."

Du Pingping wanted to say more, but Du Zhen firmly grabbed her hand: "Yes, yes, everything is up to dad."

After finishing speaking, he quickly pulled Du Pingping out.

The two happened to meet Wu Jie at the door, and Du Zhen forced a smile, but Du Pingping sneered, "What kind of pretense is it?"

Du Zhen tugged at her sister and explained: "Mr. Wu has something to do with his father, he's inside, please."

Wu Jie nodded lightly, and walked in quickly, obviously not paying attention to them.

Du Pingping's face was livid, and she scolded: "What is he, he dares to show us embarrassment."

"Pingping, you need to change your temper. It's been so many years, don't you understand Dad's temperament, he won't listen to good advice."

Du Pingping gritted her teeth and said, "Can we just let them go on like this?"

"That Wu man can only play tricks. I don't know how much money he cheated from the Du family. But Dad only listens to him. Now he doesn't care about business, and he prays to God and Buddha all day long."

Du Zhen took her younger sister outside, until she reached a secluded place, and then whispered: "Pingping, it's actually good for us if father doesn't care about things."

"what is the benefit?"

Du Zhen whispered: "He doesn't care, the Du family is ours."

Du Pingping's expression flickered.

"I know there have been a lot of rumors about the company recently, but a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. I have carefully read the financial statements. In fact, the operating situation is not bad. Let's take this opportunity..."

Du Pingping reacted: "Can it be done?"

What she hesitated was not her father's thoughts, but whether they could bypass the old man and directly steal the property.

Du Zhen laughed: "As long as our brothers and sisters are of one mind, he has no other heirs, so it's easy to do."

These words made Du Pingping's mind float.

Inside the room, Wu Jie brought all the bad news.

Patriarch Du threw down the decorations time and time again in a rage, even smashing his favorite blue and white porcelain.

"Why didn't he die? Something must have gone wrong. What went wrong?"

Wu Jie sighed and said, "Originally we sent people there just to test things out, but now they're over there, and let us find out what went wrong."

Patriarch Du looked at him coldly.

Wu Jie added: "The Patriarch has always suspected that it was the people of the Bai family who caused the trouble. Now it seems that Gu Mingdong's problem is really serious."

"What can we do if we know?" Patriarch Du was very anxious.

But Wu Jie said: "Only when we know, can we prescribe the right medicine."

"Twice if you can't do it once, and three times if you can't do it twice, you can always get rid of those who shouldn't be alive."

Patriarch Du frowned, but he lost confidence in his heart. His body had been deteriorating over the past ten years, and he kept telling him that things were getting worse.

Even though Wu Jieqiao was eloquent, Patriarch Du didn't trust him as much as he did at the beginning: "You made a mistake before, you said it was because of the great changes in the country's fortunes, but now you say it's a rebellious person."

"I don't care what the reason is, but if we continue like this, we will come to an end!"

"What it's like to backlash, you Wu family must know better than me."

Wu Jie's face froze, he lowered his head and said: "Patriarch, please rest assured that the Du family's century-old situation will not be disturbed by one person."

Patriarch Du waved his hand: "Hurry up, or it will be too late."
