If you can't borrow it, then steal it.

  If you can't borrow it, then steal it.

  He Lin Ruoshui walked on the street, I was disheartened, not only did I fail to help Lin Ruoshui, but also got Grandpa angry with me. I am really a very unsuccessful person, now both sides are offended, how can I spend my future days?

  "Sorry," I said to Lin Ruoshui.

  "Why apologize to me?" Lin Ruoshui said.

  "I didn't help you get things done, did you think I'm useless?" I said.

  "No, actually I think that if you can deceive even your own grandfather without batting an eye, then I'd be a bit disappointed in you. A man who doesn't even love his own family, how could he possibly accomplish great things? At the very least, now I'm even more certain that you won't cheat me." Lin Ruoshui smiled at me for the first time, which made me feel honored and surprised, not expecting to be praised by her despite my failure.

  "There is actually another way," said Lin Ruoshui.

  "What's the solution? Can you persuade my grandfather?" I asked.

  "If I could have convinced him earlier, I would have done so by now. Do we still need to do it this way? What I mean is, if we can't borrow it, then let's just steal it." Lin Ruoshui said.

  "Steal?" I never thought of this word "steal".

  "Yes, don't bother to lift a finger, I'll take care of it myself. This way, everything can be pushed onto me. Afterwards, I'll just return that Xing Hou Zhi to you and we're done. It's an extraordinary time calling for extraordinary measures. The police are keeping a close eye on me now, we don't have much time left. I know they've already discovered my return to Xingzhou City, but despite all this time passing, they haven't taken any action, which has got me puzzled. So I think we can't delay anymore, we must speed up. Tonight, I'll go steal it."

  "Tonight? Isn't it too soon?" I was somewhat perplexed.

  "Of course it will be faster, it has to be fast, so that we can get our hands on the Xinghou Gui before your grandfather moves it. Once we have the Xinghou Gui, we'll go straight to the tomb where it's kept and come out by tomorrow morning. That way, you'll have a chance to put it back, just for one night, no one will know." Lin Ruoshui's bold move left me somewhat unprepared.

  I have handed over the content from the belly of Xinghou Gui to Lin Ruoshui, and she has put the two rubbings together, also seeing the mystery in them. Although the inscriptions on both Xinghou Gui are written about almost the same thing, each gui has 68 words, and when combined, 136 words only explain that on a certain month and day, this thing was made to commemorate someone, without mentioning the exact location of Xinghou's tomb.

  But Lin Ruoshui was clever, she merged the two maps together and repeatedly checked them, finally figuring out the specific location. However, when I took it over, no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't make sense of those 'golden words'. Did she have some special ability that I didn't?

  This not only mentions the specific location of Xinghou Ji's tomb, but also explains that it is necessary to use two bronze tripods to open the mysterious tomb of Ji, and one cannot be missing. If one is missing, or if it is forced open, everything in the tomb will be destroyed. This sentence is just a curse to prevent others from robbing the tomb, but Lin Ruoshui deeply believes in it, saying that he must get his grandfather's Xinghou tripod no matter what.

  In the end, I still couldn't resist the beauty's ***, and agreed to her, but I didn't want her to take risks, so I decided to steal it myself. I thought that if it was just for one night, Grandpa shouldn't notice, and by returning the thing safely the next morning, even if Grandpa found out, he wouldn't do anything to me.

  After I expressed my thoughts, Lin Ruoshui patted me heavily on the shoulder several times and gave me a firm smile. This one smile alone made it worthwhile for me to die for her. Am I really that worthless?

  After parting with He Lin, I returned home. She said she would contact Chen Mo and let her prepare for the action tonight, while I went back home to wait for the opportunity. However, Grandpa didn't come out of his room all afternoon, seemingly still angry, so I didn't dare disturb him and could only quietly guard outside the house, waiting for his forgiveness.

  But Grandpa was also too abnormal today. Usually, even if he was very angry, he would show up, but today, for some reason, he didn't come out for half a day, and the house was very quiet, without any sound.

  I pushed open the door to my grandfather's room, and saw that it was open. I saw pills scattered all over the floor, and my grandfather lying on the ground. Suddenly, I realized that my grandfather had a heart attack, so I quickly called for emergency assistance and sent him to the hospital.

  Fortunately, the discovery was timely, and Grandfather did not have any major problems, but he needed to be hospitalized for observation overnight. I sat beside him, feeling extremely guilty and guarding him tightly. If it weren't for my fault, Grandfather wouldn't be lying here. If I had entered the house a little earlier and discovered Grandfather, he wouldn't need to be hospitalized for observation. Alas, I am an unfilial grandson. As time slowly passed, I forgot about my appointment with Lin Ruoshui, only accompanying Grandfather.

  The phone started vibrating, and it was Luo Zheng calling. I suddenly remembered the action tonight, and Chen Mo must have told Luo Zheng about it. But since I haven't appeared yet, he's definitely asking me what's going on.

  As expected, Luo Zheng asked me what I was doing. I told him about my grandfather's situation, and on the other side, Luo Zheng immediately said that he could come to help me take care of my grandfather. Now I have to go and meet with Lin Ruoshui because he heard Chen Mo's words and has already mobilized his men, preparing to capture Lin Ruoshui tomorrow morning.

  "But we haven't seen the buyer behind her yet." I said to Luo Zheng.

  "It's too late, we've already found out that she has bought a train ticket and booked a flight, it seems like she wants to escape directly. So tonight is our last chance, no matter what happens, completing the task must be the top priority. I'm going to the hospital now, you quickly go find Lin Ruoshui." Luo Zheng said this and then hung up the phone.

  I took another look at my grandfather, his breathing was already very even, and his face was no longer so pale, it should be that there's nothing seriously wrong with him. I said a few words to the nurse, hoping they could help me take care of him some more, then hastily left the hospital, directly heading home to retrieve the bronze basin from under my grandfather's bed, rushing towards where Lin Ruoshui and the others were.
