Late at night.
In the capital. The Ye family.
”Ah…”
Suddenly, Old Master Ye let out a scream and woke up from his sleep with his clothes soaked in sweat.
”Master, what’s the matter with you?” The figure of Yingzi quietly appeared beside the bed and asked.
Old Master Ye sat up and said, “I just had a nightmare. I dreamed of Ye Qiu.”
”In the dream, Ye Qiu was lying in a sea of yellow sand, covered in blood. His face was ferocious, and he asked me to return his father to him.”
”He also said that if I didn’t return Wushuang to him, he would kill me.”
Yingzi smiled and said, “The people who interpret dreams all say that dreams are the opposite of reality. This should be a lucky dream.”
”What is Ye Qiu doing now?” Old Master Ye asked.
”The Military God sent him to the northwest to perform a mission.”
The northwest?
Old Master Ye couldn’t help but think of the yellow sand in the dream, and there was a vague feeling in his heart. He asked, “Has the mission been completed?”
Yingzi shook her head: “I don’t know.”
Old Master Ye quickly got up and said, “I’m going to call the Military God and ask about the situation.”
“Master, it’s so late. The Military God is probably already resting.” The shadow advised, “How about making the call after daybreak?”
“The Military God has poor sleep and often doesn’t sleep all night. Maybe he is still working at this time.” Master Ye grabbed the phone and dialed the landline in the Military God’s office.
It was connected quickly.
“Hello, this is the Military God’s office. Who is this?” A young male voice came from the other end of the phone.
“Hello, I’m Ye Nantian. I’m looking for the Military God.” Master Ye said.
“Hello, Mr. Ye.” The person on the other end of the phone’s tone immediately became extremely respectful and said, “I’m the Military God’s confidential secretary. The Military God is not in the office.”
“Did the Military God go home?”
“No.”
Master Ye slightly furrowed his brows. “Then where did the Military God go?”
“This…” The secretary hesitated for a moment because the Military God’s whereabouts could not be leaked. This was a discipline.
But he also knew that if he didn’t say it, Master Ye would definitely be angry.
Moreover, for a big shot like Master Ye, it would be very easy to investigate the Military God’s whereabouts.
Master Ye also guessed the secretary’s concerns and said, “Don’t worry. I will say hello to the Military God. He won’t blame you.”
“Thank you for Mr. Ye’s understanding.” Only then did the secretary say, “The Military God has gone to the northwest.”
Huh?
Master Ye’s eyebrows trembled, and he was very shocked.
Because the Military God has inconvenient legs and feet and has been sitting in a wheelchair all year round. He hasn’t left the capital for a full ten years.
Old Master Ye quickly asked, “What is the Military God going to do in the northwest?”
”Old Master Ye, this matter involves military secrets. Forgive me for not being able to disclose it to you. If you want to know, please contact the Military God yourself. At this time, the Military God should have arrived in the northwest.”
”Okay, I see.”
Old Master Ye hung up the phone, and the uneasiness in his heart became stronger. He said in a deep voice, “Shadow, what do you think the Military God is going to do in the northwest at this time?”
Shadow said, “The Military God has not left the capital for ten years. Suddenly going to the northwest at this time, it seems that something big has happened in the northwest.”
”Ye Qiu and Tang Fei have gone to the northwest, and the Military God has also gone to the northwest. It seems that the northwest must have encountered an earth-shattering event. No, I have to call the Military God.”
Old Master Ye dialed the Military God’s mobile phone, and it rang for a long time before the other party answered.
”Military God, what happened in the northwest that requires you to go there in person?” Old Master Ye asked with a smile.
”You want to ask about Ye Qiu, right?” said the Military God.
”It seems that nothing can be hidden from you,” Old Master Ye continued, “I want to know how Ye Qiu is? You sent him to the northwest to perform a mission. Is there no danger?”
On the other end of the phone, there was a silence for three seconds.
Three seconds later, the Military God’s heavy voice came over: “Brother Ye, I’m sorry for you.”
Old Master Ye’s face changed drastically, and he asked anxiously, “Did something happen to Ye Qiu?”
The Military God said, “Ye Qiu was buried under the yellow sand in order to rescue his comrades. His life and death are uncertain now.”
Boom!
The face of Old Master Ye instantly turned pale, and his hand holding the phone was slightly trembling.
Military God continued, “After the incident, Tang Fei took rescue measures at the first time. Now the entire special warfare company of the Northwest Military Region is digging the yellow sand to rescue Ye Qiu.”
”However, it has been more than ten hours since the incident, and Ye Qiu has not been found yet.”
”I’m afraid Ye Qiu has… died.”
Clang!
The receiver fell to the ground.
Old Master Ye’s body was staggering and about to fall. Fortunately, Shadow was quick-eyed and supported Old Master Ye.
”Master, what happened to Ye Qiu?”
Shadow has been by Old Master Ye’s side for so many years and has only seen Old Master Ye.
The first time was more than twenty years ago, on the night when Ye Wushuang was besieged and killed.
The second time is tonight.
As the head of the first family in the capital and once a big shot in a high position, Old Master Ye has seen many strong winds and big waves and has been able to remain calm even when Mount Tai collapses in front of him. But at this moment, Old Master Ye lose his composure.
Shadow helped Old Master Ye sit down on the chair. Suddenly, he saw two tears flowing out of the corner of Old Master Ye’s eyes.
”Master, what’s this…?”
”Ye Qiu has an accident.” Old Master Ye said tremblingly, “Military God said he died.”
What!
Shadow trembled all over: “Ye Qiu is fine. How could something happen to him? Is there a mistake?”
”The Military God won’t lie to me, nor does he have the need to lie. Now it seems that because Ye Qiu had an accident, that’s why the Military God left Beijing and went to the Northwest.”
”Back then, in order not to drag down the Ye family, Wushuang didn’t allow me to take action to help him and faced the powerful enemy alone. The last sentence Wushuang said to me when we parted was that he hoped I could help him take care of Ye Qiu.”
”But now, Ye Qiu has just left like this.”
”I’m sorry to Wushuang… Pfft!” Suddenly, a mouthful of blood spurted out from Elder Ye’s mouth.
”Master, don’t be too sad…”
Before Shadow could finish speaking, he saw Elder Ye suddenly stand up, turn around and open the bookcase, and start rummaging through it.
”Master, what are you looking for?” Shadow asked.
”I have a group photo with Wushuang. I forgot where I put it. Do you know?” Elder Ye asked while looking.
”Master, you asked me to put that group photo in the safe.”
Elder Ye opened a cabinet against the wall. There was a safe inside. After opening it, he took out a photo from it.
On the front of the photo was exactly the group photo of him and Ye Wushuang.
Elder Ye ordered Shadow: “Light the candle.”
Shadow immediately did as he was told.
Subsequently, Elder Ye put the photo on the candle and roasted it while saying: “Last year, when True Man Changmei came to Beijing, I asked him to calculate a divination for Ye Qiu.”
“He wrote the result on the back of this photo with secret techniques at that time, and told me that when Ye Qiu was in danger, I should open it.”
Old Master Ye turned the photo over, and the back was blank.
“Why is there nothing?” Old Master Ye was full of doubts.
Shadow said: “Master, that old thing Changmei is not reliable… Eh, words have appeared.”
Old Master Ye quickly lowered his head and saw that on the back of the photo, eight words emerged:
“The son of destiny, turning danger into good fortune!”
