Chapter 56 Funeral (Part 2)
Ji Lun knew that she could use a gun. She stole a guard pistol when she was five or six years old, but unfortunately, she shot it out as an empty bullet. She dislocated her wrist and was found to be confiscated... It was obvious that Colonel Ji and his wife knew the dangers of their daughter and took precautions in advance. Xiao Xiangsi was ashamed of this failure and worked hard to improve her military knowledge and skills, and no longer touched things she didn't understand. That was another story.
At this time, Ji Lun checked around, and Ji Xiangsi followed them to report their history: "This silver sword is not ordinary silver, but the Yinjia Empire... It is the one that our ancestors crossed east to Yinzhou. Look at the sword spine that is engraved with Yin text...cube hieroglyphs, do you look familiar?"
Ji Lun was stunned: "Yin Jia...Inca? Crossing to Yinzhou? Yin Wen?"
"Shang Dynasty writing, the stupid brother is not easy to learn history." Ji Xiangsi raised the silver sword and placed it on Ji Lun's shoulder. She was a queen who gave a medal to the knight, showing a sly smile, and said, "Teach you to identify, this is the mountain, this is the sea, this is the demonstration... The demonstration is the ancient word "god", which means the mountain and sea god sword... The ritual sword used for sacrifice, you see its sword edge simulates feathers, and the sword hilt is inlaid with obsidian... The darkest natural substance on the world is worthless, but it has symbolic meaning. It is a pair of eyes, a bit similar to the Zhanlu in our ancient legend, the black eyes of God of Heaven... Combined with feathers, it is a description of the feathered snake god who worships the legend of the eastward. Then its earlier original owner should not be Yin Jia."
Ji Lun was stunned when he heard this... Huanqiu? And Yinzhou... Hell... I always feel that something is wrong in this world.
"Anyway, brother, you only need to know that this is a variant of the sacrifice of Haotian. This silver sword first belonged to a Central Yinzhou Empire before the Yinjia Empire. Unfortunately, we cannot spy on more cultures. The Yinjia Empire was destroyed by the tricks and lures of the colonists of the Spangya Empire. The emperor was taken as a hostage and extortion, which triggered civil strife and disease epidemics. The priests died in massacres, and the writings were burned to destroy the evidence of the original owner since ancient times... Now the remaining remnants are shrunk in remote mountainous areas, and may not last long... Those are our distant tribesmen, with the same fate as ours..."
Ji Xiangsi sighed. She knew what was happening in the world through books, foreign studies and newspaper expos from various countries. However, the great powers colonized the world's states and swallowed the world's general trend. It was not that she could reverse it, a little girl: "So the last owner of this silver sword is probably...well, Spanya's officer."
"Oh, it's not practical..." Ji Lun threw it aside and picked up another small object: "Where is this?"
"Blood-colored fangs, one palm long, are not ivory, carnivore, they should be very large, a bit saber-toothed tiger... But the Breitan encyclopedia introduces this type of sword-leg mammal should have been extinct for a long time, and I have never heard of it in the museum journal... Strange, I can't tell which animal it belongs to... Maybe it's a mysterious species, and I've mentioned it in a journal of a priest seized by the adults before..." Ji Xiangsi possessed her and opened her small suitcase, took out a silver cover diary and flipped through it.
"Blood clan." Ji Lun murmured.
Ji Xiangsi was stunned, hugged the silver book to her chest, and said curiously: "What is that?"
"Forgotten." Ji Lun said.
Ji Xiangsi rolled her eyes: "Brother stupid..."
Miao Qingyun looked at the siblings with a smile, and after taking a look, she introduced: "These are all the spoils of Colonel Ji Jiang... Some are very mysterious supernatural enemies, and special mercenaries of the great powers."
It was obvious that the colonel's father had a lot of foreign blood under his command. Ji Lun nodded slightly, and was mentally prepared for his possible encounter with Ji Jiang's son in the future. He said, "Now, the bank is all foreigners in the concession. In the future, our Ji family should be their object of refusal to serve?"
Miao Qingyun was stunned, probably understood the meaning, and smiled: "The Colonel once chatted with his wife and sarcastically said that these vultures did not refuse any money, even if they were stained with their own blood... These are the great powers, they do not speak morally."
Ji Lun's head is familiar with this rule.
Afterwards, I heard that the colonel's mansion was originally a military property, but it has been taken back now, including many free service personnel. After soliciting opinions, those people said that they were unwilling to stay without Colonel Ji Jiang's mansion, so they took back as usual.
Only Miao Qingyun herself was left, and there was also the younger junior girl Zhe Hanmei, who was one term later - the female servant who was instructing soldiers to relocate furniture. She was shorter than Miao Qingyun, with a neutral and handsome face and a mediocre breasts. Ji Lun felt that if she put on makeup, she could probably be a beautiful boy or an ugly ordinary man... She had no malicious intentions, but just used to consider military applications.
Miao Qingyun and the beautiful boy... Oh, the junior sister Zhe Hanmei, they voluntarily left behind on the intention form. They were just about to reserve two people to take care of Ji Jiang's children, so they used them directly - there was no employment fee, and they were exempted from the service payroll, and the expenses of the new family were exempted. No one expected a boy and a little girl to support the family plan, so they had to take care of them as much as possible.
There are still a lot of property, which is not a focus for the siblings at this time. After browsing the military collections of the colonel's father, he was a little indifferent, and his sister Ji Xiangsi didn't speak much.
"Report!"
A young and handsome lieutenant stood at the door and raised his hand to salute. In fact, when he was on the street outside, Ji Lun heard his footsteps, his military boots were stomping and his soldiers were different, so he turned to observe.
There was a tiny bullet mark on this person's cheek, and he was bluish-black military uniform, wearing a gun and a sword. He raised his hand to salute, and the white gloves were very eye-catching. He was a meticulous person.
"Are you?" Ji Lun said, stopping Miao Qingyun who wanted to speak.
I heard the lieutenant report himself: "I am lieutenant Jiang Shan, and I am ordered to come to protect you... This is the certificate, please read it."
Ji Lun checked it, looked at the photos, looked at the people, and handed it over: "People are more handsome than photos."
Jiang Shan looked a little caught off guard and dissatisfied with this praise: "..."
"Puff..." Ji Xiangsi laughed and covered her mouth again. It was obvious that the captain was not good at joking. She was not as mature as a boy in this regard. She was interested in watching her brother's interaction with outsiders, and then asked again when she saw her brother, "Is there anything else?"
Jiang Shan Jingsu returned to his duties and made a statement: "Horse Lu has issued an order to grant you the rank of Second Lieutenant. Please report to the county in three days..."
"Three days, report?"
Ji Lun felt the stimulation of a slight pain on his shoulder... Lu Hou ordered that he should be the little Lu Hou, and his father was still loyal to him. As for Jiang Shan, he remembered that he was the last adjutant of Colonel Ji Jiang, or his father's adopted son... In addition to the fog of the garden seen on the balcony of his mother, there was also the boy Jiang Shan at that time. He had traces of bullet holes piercing on his hands, so he wore white gloves all year round.
"Yes, Lieutenant Jilun, do you have any questions?"
Ji Lun sneered, and just as he was about to say something, his sister Ji Xiangsi held his hand, and she recognized the person, nodded and smiled: "Jiang Shan, weren't you a sergeant before? This time she became a lieutenant and was promoted."
Regarding the girl's interruption, she was not an active-duty soldier. On the surface, she was just a ten-year-old girl. Jiang Shan could no longer have a stern face. Her expression slowed down and said, "I have been promoted for a year. This time it was the order to go up to the top. In order to better protect your younger brother Lieutenant Ji Lun... Please don't misunderstand me."
What is a misunderstanding? Is it protection or surveillance?
Ji Lun looked unquestionable, but his sister reminded herself that she was not clear about the power outside the Ji family just after she was discharged from the hospital. She remembered Dr. Huang’s reminder, it was best to choose to be cautious, so she raised her hand and returned a military salute: "Abide by the order!"
Jiang Shan handed over the authorization documents to Ji Lun, and his expression became much more natural; "From the future, we will be comrades-in-arms."
Two female servants went to the well outside to fetch water, preparing to clean the dust left by furniture and transport. The six or seven soldiers who happened to come to move the last trip to the furniture, watched this scene, smiled and clapped their hands, as if they were so hot: "Where are two officers short of manpower, we can..."
"You little bastards, why are you so smart today... Get in the car for me quickly. There is still something to do in the old house." Another lieutenant punched and kicked his subordinates out, and waved his hands in the door with a smile: "Two brothers, I'll treat you to dinner next time I'm free."
Jiang Shan also waved, Ji Lun smiled and followed the movement. Ji Xiangsi looked up and said, "Brother, push me to the bathroom."
"Well……"
Jiang Shan stood at the door and stopped moving. Ji Lun pushed his sister's wheelchair to the bathroom. When he was guarding outside, he heard the sound of water inside, mixed with her soft voice: "Brother, don't believe Jiang Shan easily. The order is transferred in three days, so be careful."
"I can." Ji Lun also thought so, but he did not trust the person who suddenly appeared in front of him. This may be the instinct of a time traveler. In other words, he did not trust anyone except his sister... including his father's adopted son's adjutant, who was only experienced the blood test with his father, but not with him.
So far, I have experienced storms and blood with me, allowing me to confirm the authenticity of my relationship - and I am a living person, only my sister Ji Xiangsi is left, which is even more important than her blood-connected relative identity.
After using lunch speechlessly, the siblings asked who cooked the dish. When they learned that it was Miao Qingyun, they praised Miao Qingyun's craftsmanship. She felt embarrassed and said, "It's much worse than my wife...uh..."
The female servant looked apologized. She remembered that the siblings were going to visit her mother in the afternoon...
After a break after dinner, Ji Lun pushed the wheelchair and took his sister to the yard. He could see that all the steps had been renovated, and it was not temporary. Maybe the family had been prepared to welcome the return of the siblings.
After walking around, Ji Lun asked a little strangely: "Where is Butler Fei?"
"I don't know, I heard from Zhe Hanmei that the housekeeper has gone to the county town... Maybe it was a task assigned by the master?" Miao Qingyun said in an uncertain tone, and looked at the sky again: "But he should be back soon... He is hired and always comes to see Xiaolang."
Ji Lun said oh, and didn't say anything.
Ji Xiangsi was not interested in moving around Kongkong's house for too long. She said, "Let's go to my mother's place."
