Chapter 44 Chapter Forty-Third Thirteen Years Old

"So, you are his childhood friend." Zhang Haike nodded, lit a cigarette and said, "Yes, you can use the word "faxiao". I started training with him, and I know his habits and preferences better than you. You have to promise me If so, I can repeat everything about him to you." I was still hesitating whether I should trust him, but the fat man couldn't wait to say: "Tell me quickly, but let me tell you, if I find out a little loophole, we won't have anything to talk about." "Don't worry, for better cooperation and for my purpose, I will never lie to you now." Zhang Haike gave Zhang Haixing a wink, and Zhang Haixing got up and left.

Then, Zhang Haike sighed and said to me: "When he was born, a great event happened to the Zhang family. This is the beginning of everything and the root of all decline." Zhang Haike really didn't have the talent to be a writer, he talked about it with a hammer and a stick, but the fat man was at the side and he couldn't hear it.I'm definitely better than Fatty, and being good at summarizing and sorting out is my advantage, and I already have a certain theoretical understanding of the Zhang family and the whole incident, so I use my own language to record what Zhang Haike said.

For a long time, the intermarriage of the Zhang family has been very strict. This family is hidden behind the history of China. It is very powerful and can control almost everything. They generally conduct internal intermarriage. Fortunately, the family is large and there are no embarrassing problems. However, the younger brother is an outlier in this family.No one knows who the little brother's mother is. The little brother's father was not a powerful person in that generation. One time, he went to Nepal to deliver a batch of goods. He delivered it for a long time, and when he came back, he hugged A baby still in swaddle.

Because there is no mother to take care of, the little brother grew up in a chaotic environment in his childhood. When he was ignorant, he didn't even know who his father was.The huge and prosperous system of this family made it impossible for him to distinguish, which was largely the reason why the younger brother was unwilling to talk more. There is a two-year difference between Zhang Haike and his younger brother.According to Zhang Haike's description, their Zhang family's mansion at that time was located in the Jinling Mountains. It was seven Ming and Qing buildings connected together, with as many as thirteen entrances.This is only the residence of the Zhang family's main family. There are dozens of Zhang family's foreign families outside the entire village. Although they all have the surname Zhang and control many people, the status of the Zhang family's main family is much higher than that of the foreign families.

Zhang Haike is a child belonging to a foreign family of the Zhang family, so the chances for him to go to his family's mansion are very few.Most of the children of the Zhang family are arrogant, so occasionally Zhang Haike came into the big house of the family, and those children of the family were reluctant to play with him.In fact, Zhang Haike didn't care much about this, because to him, the authority of the representative of the Zhang family was only obtained by relying on the external support of the Zhang family, which was a kind of tacit understanding. He believes that as a foreigner, he can live more freely.There are many rules in the family, and many things are too tight, and what Zhang Haike is particularly concerned about is that he often sees a particularly withdrawn child in the Zhang family's family.The child didn't speak or play with other children. He just stood quietly in the courtyard, or stood under the porch pillar, watching the daylight in the courtyard, in a daze.

Zhang Haike found it very strange that this child was very special, which made him curious to know more about it, and because this child lived in his family, he was not treated well by others, which gave him a sense of intimacy. Once, Zhang Haike's father took him to his family to run some business. His father discussed things with other clansmen, and he wandered around the yard alone. Then he saw this child—Zhang Qiling, who was only three years old at the time.Zhang Haike thought for a while, worked up the courage to walk towards him, and asked, "What are you doing here? Why don't you play with them?"

The child looked at him, shook his head and said nothing, this was the first time Zhang Haike and Zhang Qiling spoke. That day Zhang Haike stayed in that yard with Zhang Qiling all the time. Zhang Haike had a strange resilience. He felt that as long as he kept talking, the child would always talk to him and communicate with him, but this time he was finally Chess meets opponent. The child has been listening quietly, looking at the sky, wondering if he listened or cared.When Zhang Haike left, he thought to himself, could he be a sick child?abnormal child?Or can't speak, can't understand what I'm saying at all?

After this meeting, it took ten years before they met for the second time.At that time, Zhang Haike was already fifteen years old. The children of the Zhang family had to receive very strict training since they were young, and they had very strict requirements for jumping and skill. The children of the family can find ancient tombs by themselves and build their own reputation. The Zhang family calls this behavior going wild. However, Zhang Haike was very surprised when he saw Zhang Qiling who was a head shorter than himself among a group of children who were about to be released into the wild.

It is a very dangerous thing to be released into the wild. Many children of the Zhang family died in the process of being released into the wild. However, thanks to the very strict training of the Zhang family itself, these things gradually began to improve after a few generations. Many children knew how dangerous it was to go wild at a very young age, so they trained hard, and some children in the Zhang family gave up this kind of training very early in order to avoid this danger.On the one hand, they will not fight for any status in the family, and on the other hand, they will save their own lives.

Going wild is often reckless. One of the basic thinking of the Zhang family is that as long as this thing can be done, there is no need to worry about any means. Therefore, many children go together to steal an ancient tomb.In this way, if there are many people, there is great strength, and everyone can divide the work and cooperate.Zhang Haike discovered that Zhang Qiling didn't seem to have such a plan, and when everyone was preparing to pack their luggage, dry food and travel expenses, he had already quietly set out on the road alone. Zhang Haike is a very well-connected person. At that time, he discussed with a few friends which area was suitable for stealing ancient tombs.A friend of his did not know where to get a layout map of an ancient tomb in Shanxi. It is said to be an oil bucket. As long as they get there, they can get the antique very easily.

This is also allowed in the Zhang family, because the source of news and your handling and grasp of information are very important abilities.If Zhang Haike followed them, there would basically be no problems in this test, nor would the following things happen, but Zhang Haike couldn't help but feel a little worried when he saw Zhang Qiling, a thirteen-year-old child going on the road alone. On the one hand, Zhang Haike is a person who hates the family system very much, and his dislike of the family system is also due to this. He doesn't like the role played by the rules and regulations of the family. It's very unfair to him. He heard from other children in the family that Zhang Qiling's father had passed away when he was seven or eight years old. He was raised by his uncle and uncle. Although he would not be abused, he would not have too much Love and happiness, but Zhang Qiling is still the same taciturn.Zhang Haike felt that it might be because someone in his family didn't want him to continue to live. At that time, Zhang Haike was very confident in his abilities. Not only had his fingers grown one-third longer than ordinary people, but his strength and speed had also reached a considerable level, so he could almost be said to be a rare Grave robber. At that time, Zhang Qiling was still a very thin child, his finger strength and length were not particularly outstanding, and he looked so weak when he walked, making Zhang Haike feel that his departure must be a disaster.So Zhang Haike chose to part ways with his friends and chose to protect the little boy from the Zhang family. This may be the most successful decision he has made in his life.
