After learning that the main purpose of Su Wanxia's trip to Namtso was to find a certain base left here, Xinri Apa immediately took Su Wanxia to find Selumtila, an old Tibetan who lived by Lake Namtso.

Old man Salum is eighty-three years old this year. He has never been married and has no children. He herds horses by the lake all year round. He occasionally receives tourists and takes photos with them to earn some scattered living allowances.

"I don't remember those things very clearly..." Salum moved his withered lips. The butter tea he cooked had a strong taste, and Su Wanxia was not used to drinking it.

"But in the past few years, some people have come here. Like you, they came to Namtso to look for things. But unlike you, their brows were full of anger, so I pretended to be confused."

Su Wanxia was shocked when she heard this: "Is the leader a woman?"

After hearing this, Salum looked up at Su Wanxia and said, "Oh? You seem to recognize her."

"Grandpa, look at it, is it this woman?" Su Wanxia showed the photo of Sang Duo Dolma to Salum.

In the end, Salum shook his head and said: "No, no, no, this looks like our Tibetan girl. The girl who came to me a few years ago was a very delicate girl. She looks like someone walking out of a painting."

Very delicate? The person walking out of the painting?

Su Wanxia suddenly thought of someone, and he immediately took out another photo and showed it to Mr. Salum.

As a result, the old man's dim eyes suddenly lit up: "Yes! That's her! Oh my God! I still remember how she looked when we took pictures by the Namtso Lake. She was so beautiful! She was like a fairy in the Tianhu Lake.

Same!"

Su Wanxia and Xue Jianian looked at each other after hearing this, and felt something unusual in each other's eyes.

Back at her residence, Su Wanxia told Su Ran, who had already left for Beijing, what she had discovered.

Su Ran frowned and said, "You Gege has been to Namtso? And just a few years ago?"

Su Wanxia nodded: "Looking at Mr. Salum's reaction, he shouldn't be lying. Moreover, this person named You Gege is indeed impressive. I also think his credibility is very high."

Su Ran understood: "It seems that our Su family is not the only one investigating these matters..."

"Yes, and after I came back, I asked Xinri Apa to get the list of people who stayed in hotels near the scenic spot in recent years. What happened to you in the end?"

"Um?"

"You Gege lived here for at least a year!" Su Wanxia said.

"One year?" Su Ran understood and nodded: "That seems to be correct. The fact that the National Security Bureau discovered the 'Dead Sea Gate' in the Namtso area is not groundless. You'd better keep it secret."

Please don’t let more people know your intentions.”

When Su Wanxia heard this, she and Xue Jianian looked at each other and smiled.

Su Ran, who was sitting in a private jet enjoying a massage, saw the smiles of these two and knew that they must have been disobedient again.

"What? You guys have already gone out beating the gongs and drums, right?"

Su Wanxia smiled and said: "Auntie, what are you thinking? No matter how upright I am, I will never be this stupid. I just revealed the matter intentionally or unintentionally to a tail that followed us to Namtso."

Su Ran's bright eyes flickered, and she quickly understood what Su Wanxia meant.

"Well... this is also a method, but those who play with fire will burn themselves. This statement is valid for everyone. Don't underestimate the strength and ruthlessness of those people."

Su Wanxia nodded: "Yes, I understand."

"Okay, I'll help you conduct an in-depth investigation of Yougege. Maybe we can dig out some useful clues. As for you, just have a good time with Jianian around Namtso, and don't be too burdened.

, maybe you can find it just by walking around." Su Ran smiled as she spoke.

Su Wanxia was immediately embarrassed. He glanced at Xue Jianian secretly, and Xue Jianian was also secretly glancing at him. There was a tacit understanding in their eyes.

"Oh, okay, okay, aunt, you'd better enjoy your massage. I'm going out."

"Are you going out so late? Where are you going?"

"I heard from Xinri Apa that a group of lamas are coming to perform rituals at Namtso Lake tonight. I'll go and see what's new." Su Wanxia said with a smile.

Su Ran frowned slightly: "Then bring a few more guards so that nothing happens."

Su Wanxia nodded: "Yes, I understand."

…

In the evening, when Xinri Apa came to see Su Wanxia, ​​the bus the lamas took had already parked in the parking lot by the lake. Far away, Su Wanxia saw fireworks shining on the high platform by the lake, which felt more like

It's a party, not a ritual.

Xue Jianian originally had no interest in these things, but after listening to Xinri Apa introducing many legends about Namtso during the day, he became interested.

"Apa, let me ask you, were you lying to me during the day?" Xue Jianian asked as he followed Xinri Apa into the car.

Xinri Apa was surprised: "Did I lie to you?"

"That's not what I mean. I mean, are those lamas' divination really effective?" Xue Jianian asked.

Xinri Apa laughed when he heard this: "Miss, don't worry, I am responsible for what I say, and I am definitely not deceiving you. These lamas are living Buddhas living in the Potala Palace, and their words are very effective.

However, I heard from the monks among them that some people have so many karma that they cannot see clearly, but there are also some people who can almost see through it just by looking at it."

Xue Jianian heard this and said with some disbelief: "Is it really that magical? Why do I feel like a charlatan?"

Xinri Apa grinned and said with a little embarrassment: "In short, if you believe it, you have it, if you don't believe it, you have nothing. I think Miss Xue and Mr. Su are both wealthy and powerful people, so you don't have to believe it."

Xue Jianian raised his eyebrows: "Good feelings, Apa, you are a charlatan yourself."

Xinri Apa was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.

…

When we arrived at the lake, Namtso at night was quieter than during the day. But the quiet lake water turned gray after losing the blue sky, and paired with the navy blue at night to create an ultimate cold-toned picture.

Xue Jianian stood by the lake, looked at the endless lake and said, "Wanxia, ​​are you planning to go to outer space in the future?"

Su Wanxia nodded: "My registration has been approved, and I have to report to Xinghan International Aeronautics and Space Administration next month. I will be able to go to Shanhai for internship in three years at the earliest."

"Well, you like the universe?"

"Actually... not really." Su Wanxia's expression was slightly melancholy.

"Then why do you want to be an astronaut at Xinghan International Aeronautics and Space Administration? Wouldn't it be better to stay on the ground with your aunt and do your part for the Su family?" Xue Jianian was very curious about Su Wanxia's true purpose.

Su Wanxia frowned. He looked at the sky for a long time and suddenly said: "Because... I always feel that the sky is very clean... It is a suitable place to do things quietly."

Xue Jianian seemed to understand something when she heard this. She couldn't help but cover her mouth and smile: "Oh ho... You look like you have seen through the world of mortals. Why, the ground is not clean?"

Su Wanxia smiled bitterly when she heard this: "I didn't say that, I just... don't like... well... this kind of world where there always seem to be people around me who want to harm me."

Xue Jianian understood that she knew Su Wanxia's secret, but Xue Jianian had never particularly understood Su Che's decision back then.

"Then will I have to wave at the stars from the ground?" Xue Jianian asked with a smile.

Su Wanxia was stunned for a moment and then laughed: "It's not that exaggerated. I heard from seniors that even if the astronauts are willing, considering the irreversible damage caused to the body by long-term outer space life, astronauts working on the space station

After a certain period of life, I will be forced to return to the ground base to recuperate, and then return to work at the ground base. This means that I may work on the Shanhai for one year, but I have to work on the ground for four years before I can return to the Shanhai.

Go, if you think about it this way... In fact, before my body no longer meets the requirements for going to outer space, I can stay in space for three to five years at most."

"It's also very long..." Xue Jianian suddenly said: "As long as we are separated, we will feel inexplicably far away... It's as if we can only meet once in this life, and we will never meet again in the future. It's a very sad feeling.

.”

Su Wanxia looked at Xue Jianian and was in a daze. After a long time, she suddenly laughed: "You are still talking about me, aren't you quite emotional?"

Xue Jianian blinked and immediately denied, "Really? I don't think I'm being sentimental. What I said is the truth, okay?"

Su Wanxia raised her eyebrows: "Is it true? I don't think so."

"Huh?!" Xue Jianian frowned, as if to say: 'You dare to say you don't think so?'

Seeing that Xue Jianian was getting angry, Su Wanxia hurriedly explained: "Ah! Don't misunderstand me, I mean... look at how many times we have 'encountered' each other by chance since we met at the Lhasa airport? This kind of fate is still there

It’s really wonderful.”

Xue Jianian was slightly stunned when he heard this, then glared at Su Wanxia angrily and then laughed: "Who says it's not true? Although I have long recognized that you, Mr. Su Su, are basically lying to me, but these few 'accidental encounters'

It does mean that we are quite destined...but...you are taking such a big job now, but you have to go to school next month. Isn't it too cunning? Do you like to cause trouble to others by nature?

?”

Su Wanxia has always been quite embarrassed about this.

He had some impulse when he chose to help Grandqin and the others, but it was more of a decision he made on behalf of his father based on Su Che's story, because he could vaguely feel that Su Che actually hoped that Su Wanxia could use his legitimate rights as his legitimate son.

The fact that the eldest son stood up to support him meant that Su Wanxia just made a decision for Su Che that Su Che was about to give up but was very unwilling to do.

Su Wanxia immediately waved her hands and said: "No, no, actually I was very hesitant about this at the time... But I thought... even if I leave Lhasa and go to Xinghan International, I can still do my best to do for them.

There are some things, and I know a friend whose father is a top professor in biomedicine. If we can get this old man to come forward from the side, it might improve their hope of recovery."

"But you still retreated behind the scenes, didn't you? And I guess... Now that your Aunt Su Ran, who has been in seclusion for many years, has come forward, the Su family will definitely try to protect you as carefully as possible in dealing with this matter, instead of letting you

At the front, do you know what I mean?" Xue Jianian is five years older than Su Wanxia after all, and she looks at the problem much more deeply than Su Wanxia, ​​a student who has just turned twenty.

Su Wanxia frowned and said: "You mean... Aunt Su Ran is not only here to save me, but also intends to take on the problems I pose for her?"

"Yes, but it's not your Aunt Su Ran, but your Su family!" Xue Jianian simply made it clear.

Su Wanxia suddenly felt pressured.

The temperature difference between day and night in Tibetan areas is huge. Even in August, the temperature at noon is as high as 27 degrees Celsius, and at night it can drop to below zero.

Take it off and wrap it up inside her.
