Chapter 1 Why not Manor

Murphy looked at the huge dark building in front of him, which was like a hell castle. He looked at the card with the address in his hand in disbelief.

52, No. 3, Yequan Town - Heban Manor:

Yes, it is here. This is the place where the third uncle and grandpa live. But how could the third uncle and grandpa live in such a ghost place? Yequan Town has been uninhabited since the incident happened more than ten years ago. Now it is completely deserted, and there is no need to say that the mountains and rivers are poor. The shape of the house is even more bizarre. The tall buildings made of huge black rocks are rough and thick. It is more suitable to be a fortress than a manor. There is no repair outside the building, It completely presents a primitive form of rock formation.

The gate is a thick iron gate, which looks like a prison.

More like a prison, this building has no windows near the ground. There are only some one meter square windows near the top. The inward recessed design is like a machine gun hole in a bunker. This kind of building pattern can't expect any light. I don't know what will be in it, But no matter how you look at it, it's a feeling that strangers are not allowed to enter.

If he was not sure that the address on his hand was correct, and if it was not for Yequan Town, a deserted town, there would only be such a decent building, he would feel like he was on the wrong set.

Murphy sighed and hesitated secretly about whether to knock at the door. His mind could not help recalling his mother's advice.

"Xiaofei, listen carefully. You, the third uncle and grandfather, have been wandering for decades since you were young. He came back a few years ago. It is said that he earned more than 10 billion yuan, but he has no children and no daughters. Now he is more than 80 years old. Maybe one day he will lose his legs.

So after you go to his place, you must accompany your third uncle and grandpa more and make good relations with him.

To Gao Shangli, he is now at the age of enjoying his grandson, and he must need someone to accompany him. At least we are relatives, so we can't let him become old and lonely without a companion.

Selfishly speaking, most of his family property will be left to our relatives, but who will be left and how much will be given will be uncertain. You will make him happy. If he is happy one day and leaves his inheritance to you, you will not have to worry about it for the rest of your life.

To say the least, even if you don't leave any legacy, just give you a few million yuan. Why don't you get out of the house with your wedding gift money? You can save a lot of money when you get married later. You are old enough to find a daughter-in-law. Look at Wang Lei, your classmate in primary school, and his children are in kindergarten... "

Murphy said that the last sentence of yours was the key. He didn't even have a girlfriend. Of course, young people are career oriented. We haven't even reached our thirties, and it's time to get married when we are young and promising. But he also knew that there was no point in arguing with his mother on this topic, so he started without saying a word.

In his heart, Murphy really didn't want to participate in the troubled waters. The so-called relatives and families didn't mean anything to him. He hated visiting relatives since he was a child, and he could hide from family gatherings on holidays.

And this third uncle hasn't seen him for decades, so he suddenly came to visit his relatives and made it clear that he was going for money, which was really embarrassing. Of course, he wanted to get rich, but he didn't want to get it in such a hypocritical and vulgar way.

Although he has been beaten by the society, Murphy still has some young people's dignity and pride in his heart. He always feels that he can do something with his own ability in the future and wants to fight for the world with his own hands. He is very resistant to coaxing the elderly to fight for heritage.

However, his mother's fate was difficult. Mo Fei was really beaten by my mother, so he had no choice but to face this fate.

However, Murphy was not very interested in this matter. He had better deal with this task by going through the motions. 'It's better for the third uncle and grandpa to hate him when he sees him, and then drive him out, which will save him a lot of trouble' - like the idea of a blind date.

Of course, if the third uncle really wants to give his own inheritance, it is not necessary to refuse the other side's kindness.

Alas, early death and early rebirth, come on.

With a complicated mood, Murphy went up and rang the doorbell.

As soon as the doorbell rang, an electronically synthesized woman's voice rang——

"Alert! Alert! Unknown units found, unknown units found, intruders, please indicate your intention."

Murphy was shocked. After a while, he found that the voice was coming from the door. He said that the place where the third uncle lived was very special. Even the door bell was so evil. Could it be the legendary AI?

"Well, my name is Murphy, and I'm the son of He Xi. What's the fear of visiting the third uncle? If you don't mind, please open the door and thank you."

A decorative eye on the door suddenly shot a red light and scanned Murphy up and down.

The electronic sound sounds again -- [DNA scanning is completed, and the identity has been confirmed -- Murphy, the son of He Xi, welcome to He Ban Manor].

The front door slowly opens, but Murphy standing outside the door is a little surprised and uncertain. What happened to the red light just now? This third uncle is really a rich man. This door is still high-tech, but this technology is too high, right? DNA scanning? Really?

He walked in carefully. There was a dark corridor in front of him. He did not know where to go. Murphy took a step forward carefully, and suddenly the light of the sensor light came on around him. The bright light made Murphy feel more comfortable. He walked along the corridor. The corridor was about 20 meters long, straight, and the walls on both sides were covered with cameras, Along the way, those cameras turned with his movement, as if he were paying attention, making Murphy feel surrounded.

It was not easy to walk to the end of the corridor, but a door appeared in front of me. A crack in the door was opened with a gentle push, and a confused voice of dialogue came out immediately.

Murphy tried to open the door, but in front of him was a spacious living room with bright lights. There were many people sitting on the sofa and chairs in the living room. Murphy glanced around, and suddenly found that he knew most of them. The second brother of the third uncle's family, the cousin of the fourth aunt's family, and the half boy of the second aunt's family were all relatives of his mother's family, and Wuyang and Wuyang were sitting in the room.

Seeing Murphy coming in, these people had different expressions. Some smiled at him with tacit understanding, and everything was in silence.

Some of them showed their alert look, just like the wild dogs who were snatching food saw the same uninvited guests who were snatching food.

"Who is that boy?"

"The second son of the third aunt's family."

"It doesn't look like it. It's not fierce at all."

"Maybe it's with my third uncle."

Murphy vaguely heard whispers.

He was not polite to these half baked relatives, so he found a corner seat and sat down.

"Eh, Brother Murphy, you are here too. Did your third aunt ask you to come?" A funny voice came from the side. When he turned around, he found that it was his cousin He Xiaoke, who was playing with his mobile phone while talking to him.

"Yes, why did you come here? My uncle asked you to come?"

"No, I came by myself."

"I ran away from home again."

"What's the meaning of" running away from home again "? I just ran away for once. Well, how did you know that?"

Murphy rolled his eyes and said, "During the days when you disappeared, my uncle called me every day and said that I hid you. Do you think I don't know?"

He Xiaoke stuck out his tongue and laughed.

Murphy looked around, but he didn't see any old man who was suspected to be the third uncle.

"Where's the third uncle?"

"We haven't come out yet. We left us here as soon as we arrived. It has been a long time." He Xiaoke said as he took a packet of potato chips out of a backpack beside him. Katz Katz ate them up. Seeing the posture of her luggage, it was obvious that she planned to fight for a long time.

Murphy shook his head in a funny way. They talked for a few minutes. When He Xiaoke took out the second packet of potato chips, the third uncle finally arrived.

His appearance was quite dramatic. Bang! The door of the living room was directly knocked open, and an old man rushed in. At least he looked like an old man, with messy white hair. I don't know how long he hasn't combed it. It was like a bird's nest. He was wearing a dirty white coat with a belt tied to a tool kit, It is hung with various tools, and its eyes are round, which seems to have the same look as the mad scientist in the cartoon.

However, if you look carefully, you can see that his skin does not look old. It certainly does not look like he is 80 or 90 years old, maybe even 70 years old. In fact, without his messy white hair, it is not unbelievable that he is over 50 years old this year, and that he is going to die at 80 or 90 years old. Why does it not look like he is going to die?

Murphy could almost hear the regretful voice of everyone present.

As soon as the old man came in, he glanced at the crowd with a penetrating eye, picked up a large teapot, grabbed a handful of tea leaves, and then picked up the hot water in front of the water dispenser.

"I know why you came here. Don't talk nonsense to me. I know what you are here for. It's just that I heard that I am dying and want to make friends. But there is an old saying that good people don't live long and bad people live for thousands of years. I can live for another 900 years. Even if you die, I can still live well. So those who want to make friends can now go away No matter how much money I have, it has nothing to do with you. "

After saying that, the water was full. The old man sat down on the sofa and sipped tea. He no longer paid any attention to the people. He made it clear that it was time to deliver tea to the guests.

At the sight of this posture, everyone looked at each other for a while, and their faces were a bit ugly. For one thing, it was a bit embarrassing to be said so to the face of others. For another, the old man was full of arrogance. There was no way he could not do anything. Although it would be bragging to live for another nine hundred years, it might not be difficult to live for another ten or twenty years.

And even if they really live a short time, people will talk about it. It would be shameless to stay here again. Although it is the idea of inheritance, there is still some bottom line for the people present. When they find that the purpose is not likely to succeed, they resolutely start to find reasons to retreat.

The first one who could not bear it was the eldest cousin, who forced herself to smile. "The third uncle and grandpa, in fact, I just came to see you and brought you some fruit. If it is inconvenient for you, I will go first and see you another day."

Then, the second cousin could not stand it, so he was much more straightforward, "I also left the third master." Then he left.

One by one, several people in the modest kung fu room all left, leaving only the old man, Murphy, and Murphy's cousin He Xiaoke.
