Chapter 1160: Chapter 1160:
Zhang Yang meant, isn’t it a bit much to be so persistent for an old man?
But Jin Tuantuan seriously replied, “It’s not about whether he’s an old man or not, but because this is what my master instructed me before he died.”
“My master said that the old man might already be dead, because he hadn’t been in contact with him for over ten years.”
“But my master instructed that, no matter what, I must find the old man’s inheritance.”
Zhang Yang frowned, “And after you find the inheritance, what? Do you plan on learning it or what?”
In Zhang Yang’s view, if Jin Tuantuan really found it, once those people got wind of it, they would go even crazier than they are now.
By that time, even before Jin Tuantuan could learn it, she might have already been taken out.
“No, I have zero interest in that inheritance. My master said to find it and destroy it.”
“That way, those people will completely give up.”
“And no one will fight or kill over it anymore.”
Zhang Yang felt that Jin Tuantuan’s master was meddling too much. Isn’t this creating trouble for no reason?
If people want to fight, let them; why get involved? In the end, it might even drag his own disciple in.
Frankly speaking, if it weren’t for Zhang Yang, Jin Tuantuan would have been in danger long ago.
Jin Tuantuan knew this as well and never thought to hide it from Zhang Yang. The reason for mentioning it only now was truly out of consideration for him.
“Zhang Yang, I was raised by my master, and I know you might not understand why I must do this, but if I don’t, I won’t have the face to face my master.”
Jin Tuantuan said earnestly, her tone full of determination.
Zhang Yang could only helplessly respond, “Alright, it’s your call, but I really can’t help you with this one.”
“The only thing I can do is help block them if anyone comes causing trouble.”
Jin Tuantuan said, full of guilt, “I know that’s already a lot. It’s my fault for dragging you into this mess, and more importantly, Xiao Man got involved too.”
Then Jin Tuantuan added to Zhang Yang, “What they probably want is just the clues I have anyway. Not long ago, I found some clues. You can use them to exchange for Xiao Man.”
“If they really find the inheritance, then it’s just fate, and I’ve done my part to the best of my ability.”
Zhang Yang frowned; Jin Tuantuan was obviously saying something different from what she felt. If it weren’t for Xiao Man’s situation, she definitely wouldn’t want to share the clues with those people.
Zhang Yang was a bit hesitant, torn between Jin Tuantuan’s belief and Xiao Man’s safety.
The main thing was that he was also not happy with those people’s threats. Just compromising like that, he wasn’t willing to either.
But after all, nothing was more important than Xiao Man’s safety.
So Zhang Yang said to Jin Tuantuan, “Since you’re saying this, just tell me, what’s this clue you mentioned?”
“But rest assured, I won’t tell them unless absolutely necessary. Our priority is to find Xiao Man first.”
Hearing Zhang Yang’s words, Jin Tuantuan smiled and said, “No worries, I know you have a plan in mind.”
“Actually, I found some clues. The old man seemed to live in a small village over a decade ago.”
“The village is called Fuqiang Village, a very ordinary village.”
Zhang Yang was stunned, a bit surprised, “Fuqiang Village? Are you sure that’s the name?”
Jin Tuantuan looked puzzled, not understanding why Zhang Yang was so surprised.
“Yes, it’s called Fuqiang Village. I haven’t been there; why would I make it up?”
“I found out after a long investigation, but now the village has been relocated, and many people can’t be found.”
“Most people have moved to a town, a place where several nearby villages have merged.”
“Therefore, finding someone who’s hiding their identity is really not easy.”
“Even if those people make their move, they might not be able to do it.”
Zhang Yang could only point to himself and say to Jin Tuantuan, “I’m from Fuqiang Village.”
Jin Tuantuan was also quite shocked, “Really? Is it the Fuqiang Village in Rivervest City’s Purple Eggplant District?”
Jin Tuantuan mentioned a specific address, considering there might be many places with a village named Fuqiang Village.
It’s such a common name, popular in that era.
“Yes, it’s Fuqiang Village in Rivervest City’s Purple Eggplant District. My residence record is still at that address, add on Special Committee Group Two and that’s my home.”
Jin Tuantuan was truly surprised by this unexpected connection and excitedly grabbed Zhang Yang’s hand, “So you must know the people in the village quite well?”
Zhang Yang knew what Jin Tuantuan wanted to ask. After thinking carefully, he replied, “I can’t say I know everyone well; after all, Fuqiang Village is quite large, with a population of two to three thousand.”
“But I’ve never heard of any impressive old man in the village, if there really is one, it would be my grandfather.”
“But my grandpa is just an ordinary old Chinese doctor, nothing special.”
“In the village, he’s just the village doctor.”
“His medical skills weren’t top-notch either; many people couldn’t be saved even if my grandpa tried.”
“Besides my grandpa, I’ve never heard of any other skilled people, especially in medicine.”
Hearing Zhang Yang’s words, Jin Tuantuan fell into deep thought.
It’s unlikely to be Zhang Yang’s grandfather; there’s no word of that old man having a grandson.
If the person was hiding his identity, he probably wouldn’t freely help people either.
It seems Zhang Yang really doesn’t know about such a person, but even so, Jin Tuantuan felt it was quite coincidental that Zhang Yang also hails from that village.
“Think carefully, is there anyone suspicious?” Check latest chapters at novelFɪre.net
Zhang Yang shook his head, “No one suspicious, if there were, it would have already spread, it couldn’t be completely silent.”
Jin Tuantuan felt a tinge of disappointment after hearing that, a bit unfortunate; it would have been great if Zhang Yang knew.
However, it’s also not too bad now, with Zhang Yang’s help, it’s much better than searching aimlessly alone.
“Zhang Yang, once we’re back home, let’s go to your village and take a look. Even though Fuqiang Village has been relocated, the people can still be found. Let’s inquire around and search thoroughly; if we find it, we’ll destroy that so-called inheritance right in front of those people. It would be the best revenge against them.”
