Chapter 600: Sakura's Past (2)
"When my parents met my grandfather, he was already under house arrest." Qianying narrowed her eyes slightly and spoke quietly about the past: "Those people restricted my grandfather's freedom and didn't even allow him to contact anyone. The reason why my parents and I were brought to China was to be used as a bargaining chip to threaten my grandfather."
When Su Qing heard this, she asked, "Do those people want your grandfather to participate in the experiment?"
"Yes." Qianying nodded: "I guess you also know something about that period of history."
Su Qing didn't say anything, but nodded slightly. As a Chinese, almost everyone knew about that period of history. Those experiments were just one of the numerous crimes committed by the Japanese in China.
Qianying continued, "My grandfather is a doctor, and he has always been kind-hearted. He always insisted that the medical skills he learned were used to save people, not to harm people. So, after being brought to China, he knew he would be involved in those experiments and he refused to comply. No matter how those people threatened or lured him, my grandfather refused to get involved in those experiments, and even denounced those people as worse than beasts."
"Maybe my grandfather's medical skills are really great. Although those people were dissatisfied with my grandfather's behavior, they didn't do anything to him. They just kept persuading him. Finally, when they saw that my grandfather was not moved and wanted to escape, they put him under house arrest. At the same time, they took my parents and me to China and threatened my grandfather with our lives."
"What happened next?" Su Qing knew that the result might not be good.
Qianying smiled miserably and said, "I think you have guessed it. The result was tragic. When my grandfather saw those people threatening my parents and me with their lives, he was so angry that he vomited blood. But in order to save my parents and me, he agreed to participate in the experiment. At the same time, my grandfather secretly planned with a friend of different ages, hoping that the friend would help my parents and me escape. Because my grandfather had saved his life and he respected my grandfather very much, he agreed to my grandfather's plan."
"On the third day after my grandfather participated in the experiment, a fire suddenly broke out at the entire experimental site. Taking advantage of the fire, my grandfather's close friend took my parents and me and fled." Qianying's eyes were filled with sadness: "My grandfather set the fire. In order to paralyze those people, he used himself as bait and burned three-fifths of the people at the experimental site to death in the fire. Unfortunately, my parents and the others did not escape. They died at the hands of the pursuers. My grandfather's close friend risked his life to bring me out, and finally fled to a small village. After handing me over to a local farmer, he could no longer hold on and died."
Qianying looked at Su Qing and said softly, "I was raised by the Chinese. I was only half a year old at the time. If it weren't for that family, I would not have survived. So, the Chinese are my benefactors, and the Japanese are the enemies who killed my grandfather and my parents. If it weren't for them, our family could still live happily in the small town of our hometown. Maybe I would have lovely brothers and sisters, and I wouldn't have become an orphan since childhood. So, do you understand my feelings now?"
Su Qing pursed her lips gently and asked, "Then how do you know your life experience? Also, you are an Onmyoji, right? How did you become an Onmyoji? I see that you seem to have grudges against both the Nozuki family and the Morikawa family, right?"
"Yes, the Nozuki family and the Morikawa family are both my enemies. The experimental site was set up by the Nozuki family and the Morikawa family. Not only do they want to conduct experiments there, but they also want to lay the foundation for the cultivation of their children, because there is the most resentment there and it is the most suitable for the cultivation of these two families." Qianying did not deny it, and then said: "As for my life experience, it was because my grandfather's friend of different ages told that family about my life experience before he died, begging them to adopt me, and also begging them to tell me my life experience after I grow up, so that I can have a chance in the future to avenge my grandfather and parents."
Qianying took a deep breath, her eyes showing more sadness. "Perhaps, good people may not be rewarded. The family that adopted me eventually died in the war. Before they died, they told me my life story. I was too young at the time. After losing the last shelter, I almost starved to death on the roadside. Later, an Onmyoji who traveled in China saved me and brought me back to Japan to teach me Onmyoji. Maybe I have a good talent, so I did succeed in my studies."
Su Qing was silent for a while and then asked, "So, you participated in this plan this time in order to sabotage it?"
Qianying nodded and said, "I am best at formations. This time, I carved runes on those formation stones with Sheng Chuan Gong. They want to use this formation to deal with China, but I will not let them do so. I have secretly destroyed the runes on the formation stones. Even if they make a large formation, it will not work. I came here tonight mainly to take away the talismans drawn by Nozuki Taidou. After all, I am not good at talismans, and only by taking these talismans away can I ensure that nothing goes wrong. I didn't expect to meet you."
Qianying looked at Su Qing and smiled faintly: "You have awakened the spirit of wood and can control the plants in the mountains and forests. You are really powerful. No wonder Hino Tsukioka Taito clearly sensed something was wrong but couldn't find any trace of you."
"Didn't you also notice it?" Su Qing said, "Otherwise, you wouldn't have deliberately leaked the plan to me that night."
Qianying smiled faintly: "I have been able to sense auras differently than ordinary people since I was a child, so this can be considered one of my talents."
"No wonder you could find me here easily today." Su Qing raised her eyebrows slightly.
Qianying looked at Su Qing seriously: "So, do you believe me now? I really have no ill will towards you. Your goal and mine are the same. If you still refuse to believe me, you can do whatever you want with me."
Su Qing shook her head calmly: "I am not a murderer either. You can go back. I have collected all the talismans here. However, I also want to warn you that if you reveal my whereabouts and appearance, I will never let you go."
Su Qing knew that Qianying had not lied to her and would naturally not deal with her. However, Su Qing also wanted to warn her that if she revealed her whereabouts, she would definitely not show mercy.
"You are so fast." Qianying was a little surprised, and then hurriedly said: "Excuse me, do you also want to deal with the Nozuki Family and the Shengchuan Family? If you have this idea, maybe we can cooperate."
