After returning from running, Mo Tingye wanted to take a shower.

"You are not allowed to sneak away, wait for me."

Ruan Xia made a face at him.

This guy is getting harder and harder to fool, and now it's almost impossible to fool him.

Suddenly the phone rang, it was Liu Fei.

"Master! Thank you, the police sent my roommate back and destroyed the den of that fraud group!"

Ruan Xia smiled softly.

"The credit this time is yours. If you hadn't reacted quickly, it might not have been so easy."

Liu Fei gave an embarrassed hey.

"Master, my classmate wants to treat you to dinner. I asked you when you are free."

Ruan Xia declined politely.

"Master is very busy. The most important thing is to leave a different city. Let's talk about it when we come back."

He hung up the phone happily.

There are only three words in Ruan Xia's mind.

【Mogan Village】

Ruan Xia took out her cell phone and started searching, and soon found something.

It turned out to be a small village in the southeastern coastal area.

Judging from the topographic map, it is surrounded by mountains and rivers.

The scenery must be great!

Ruan Xia also took a quick shower, and when she came out again, she saw Yuan Qi was there.

He frowned, as if he was reporting something to Mo Tingye.

Ruan Xia walked over while wiping her hair.

"What happened?"

Yuan Qi raised his eyes, and Ruan Xia actually saw a trace of sadness in his eyes.

"Did you train him?"

Ruan Xia pinched her waist and looked at Mo Tingye.

Although this guy was gentle to her, he was very strict with his subordinates.

Mo Tingye was stunned for a moment, opened his mouth, and only made a sound after a few seconds.

"No, I didn't train him. If you don't believe me, ask him."

Ruan Xia looked at Yuan Qi.

"Secretary Yuan, I am here to seek justice for you today. If you have any grievances, feel free to tell me."

She didn't say it was okay, but when she did, Yuan Qidou shed big tears.

"What happened here?"

Ruan Xia was a little panicked. She had never seen Secretary Yuan look like this.

"Master Ruan, I'm fine, I just remembered some past events."

"President Mo asked me about Mo Ganshan just now, and I suddenly felt homesick."

Ruan Xia was confused after hearing this.

"Where is your hometown? Mogan Village?"

Yuan Qi nodded, and Ruan Xia felt a thump in her heart.

She quickly took out the jade pendant hanging with red thread around her neck and handed it to Yuan Qi.

"Have you seen this?"

Ruan Xia's heart was pounding.

Because she saw Yuan Qi's eyes turned to shock, and then carefully touched the pattern on it.

"The carving on it is the goddess sunbathing the moon."

Ruan Xia had never looked carefully at the pattern above.

After Yuan Qi said this, he looked carefully and found that it was indeed an image of a woman leaning on a clam.

"Every stroke and every image is so familiar to me."

With tears in his eyes, Yuan Qi began to introduce things about his hometown.

Mogan Village is a very remote small village in the southeastern region, close to the sea.

Because it is built between the mountains and the sea, there are few waves and it is surrounded by soft sandy beaches. Yuan Qi loved going to the beach to play when he was a child.

When he was a child, he often went to the ancestral temple to play. On the wall in the middle of the ancestral hall, there was a picture of the goddess looking at the moon.

At that time, he often looked at the statue of the goddess and sighed, she was so beautiful.

It is so beautiful that no matter how beautiful it is, it feels like blasphemy.

Every time he worshiped his ancestors in the ancestral hall, Yuan Qi would run to watch.

It is the goddess who worships ancestors.

People who rely on the sea have lived here for generations. Everyone holds incense to worship the goddess, hoping that she will keep the village safe and double the harvest.

At that time, he often looked at these mindless adults and thought, the goddess is just a stone statue.

When he grows up, he must leave here and go to a place where he does not need to worship the goddess.

As expected, he was admitted to a very good university in the city.

When people often ask him where his hometown is, he will make up a random story.

I never thought that this place would appear in my mouth again.

"Fu'an, Mogan Village."

Ruan Xia listened thoughtfully.

"In Fu-Guang Province, there are two large pearl pools and ancestral halls were built. Did your hometown make a fortune by fishing for pearls?"

Yuan Qi nodded in surprise.

"Master Ruan actually knows this business."

Ruan Xia didn't remember when he saw it. After he said it, he also reacted.

It's like something that's familiar by heart.

"We are going back to your hometown this time, will you come with us?"

Yuan Qi rubbed his hands nervously.

"I am an orphan. My parents died long ago. I have no relatives in my hometown anymore."

Ruan Xia regretted that she shouldn't have said this, because it made Yuan Qi sad!

Yuan Qi thought for a while.

"Master Ruan, Mr. Mo, it's difficult to enter the village. You outsiders can't enter."

Ruan Xia became interested as soon as she heard this. There was no place in the world that she could not reach.

"Why, are you so xenophobic?"

Yuan Qi looked a little embarrassed.

"The village is relatively isolated. When I left the village, the village chief said that I would never come back again."

Ruan Xia's jaw suddenly dropped.

Is there such a place?

It's a good thing to go out to study, but why do you seem to be kicking me out and never letting you in again? It's too overbearing.

Yuan Qi seemed to see her anger.

"I can't even go back, let alone you."

Ruan Xia clenched his fist.

"No, I have to go this time. I have to find out one thing. That thing is very important to me."

Yuan Qi thought for two seconds.

"Then I'll go with you. It'll be safer this way."

Mo Tingye patted his shoulder.

"If you're on a business trip, all expenses are included."

Ruan Xia thought to herself, I haven't agreed yet, how can you two agree happily?

Mo Tingye then issued the second order.

"Let's each go home and pack our things. We'll meet at noon and set off after dinner."

After the words fell, Yuan Qi immediately turned around and went out.

He drove the company car back to his apartment.

The luggage was quickly packed.

He has always kept his things simple, only bringing what is most needed and not bringing anything useless.

After packing his things, he sat by the bed a little lonely.

I opened a bottle of purified water and drank it.

I feel much calmer.

I thought I would never go back to that place again in my life.

In fact, Mogan Village was not called this name before. It was called Beng Village before.

It sounds tacky and unpleasant.

At that time, the village chief often told stories about the village under the old tree at the entrance of the village.

He often took a cattail fan made of banana leaves and used it to repel mosquitoes while he was talking.

"Dragon beads, snake beads, fish beads, and dragon beads are all fake! Only old clams can really produce good beads, and the clams in our village are the best."

At that time, he really thought that there were so many kinds of beads in the world, but the old village chief refused to admit them.

He often peeked at the adults fishing for pearls and plunged into the sea with a rope tied to his waistband.

After a while, he floated up with a huge clam in his arms, and when he opened it, there were glowing clam beads.

The village has been supported by these beads for generations.

Later, outsiders came from nowhere and fell in love with this pearl fishing business.

They were fighting for land and old clams for pearls. They only had money in their eyes and worked hard to mine. Every day before dawn, a group of people would go to the beach to occupy land.

The people in this village cannot stand it anymore, and conflicts are about to break out.

When two groups fight on the beach, there will always be people injured.

Later, someone called the police. When the police came, he found that his father was missing.

My mother also rushed over from home, dragging the police with her and asking questions.

Some people said they saw their father fall into the water.

Yuan Qi learned a truth at that time: the more familiar people are with water, the easier it is to drown.

People who fish for pearls go as deep as tens of feet under the sea.

People who spend their whole lives begging for food from the sea end up staying in the sea.

Throughout the struggle, victory was won at the sacrifice of his father.

Those outsiders left, and a few days later, my mother also died of depression.

He became the only orphan in the village.

He didn't tell anyone.

His nickname is Shouwang.
