Chapter 316 The Main Residence of the Jing Clan
The main house, as the residence of the current clan leader of the Jing clan, is not just a house, it is composed of five small buildings of all sizes. [ *] There are four small buildings in the four corners of the southeast, west and north, each with four floors, with the main building in the middle, with the highest main building and five floors. The main building is the place where the clan leader lives on the top, and the lower floor is the place where the office and discussion are held; the small building in the east has arranged Yanyu brothers and sisters; the servants below live on the west; the south is used to entertain guests or close relatives and friends, and every year the disciples of the clan come to the main house to study, and Yuhan also lives here as the saint of the next clan leader; the building on the north is a large training ground downstairs, and the layout of the second floor is like a large classroom, where the disciples of the clan teach, and the upper floor is a library.
After Wang Fan succeeded as the clan leader, he saw his uncle Yanxiang dying and couldn't bear to let him get too tired, but Yanxiang had made up his mind and did not want to cause trouble to the clansmen in his last days, so he moved to a small building in the south to move the newly returned clan leader Wang Fan.
Wang Fan couldn't argue, so he had to let Yan Bo choose a good time and moved into the main building with Yuhan, Yan Yuliang, Tao Huzi, An Lan, Liu Xin and Nan Sisi. First, there were enough rooms here, and second, Wang Fan has now officially taken over as the patriarch, so it is reasonable for Yuhan, the "personal maid", to live in the main building.
Early the morning after moving in, Wang Fan had breakfast and took Yuhan to the South Tower to visit Yanxiang. However, what he had done to the tribe members before, at least his identity was the former patriarch and his own uncle.
"My nephew, Yanlong, pays homage to his second uncle." When he walked to the door, Wang Fan did not let Yuhan communicate, but instead signed up for the name himself, and he also intended to name his uncle and nephew.
After a while, the building door opened, and Yanxiang's butler trotted out. Yanxiang's butler was named Atai, and he had been following Yanxiang for decades.
"Young Master, the old master knows that you will definitely come today. You have already gotten up early and are waiting in the house." As he said that, he led the way in front and led Wang Fan and Yuhan into the house.
Sure enough, when I entered Yanxiang's bedroom, he was supported by his youngest fifth wife and leaned against the bed. It can be seen that this time, Yanxiang had cleaned up intentionally, his hair was neatly combed and his face was shaved cleanly. Although his eyes were still turbid, he seemed to be in good spirits.
"Nephew, thank you... Thank you for being willing to recognize me, uncle." Yan Xiang spoke as if he was so angry that he was a little far apart. Wang Fan had to prick up his ears to identify them carefully, and even listen and guess to understand what he meant.
"This is what my nephew deserves. We are the same roots."
"I'm sorry for your mother's... I'm sorry. Atashi knows where she and your second mother buried.... You go and see." Yanxiang raised his right hand and waved slightly tremblingly.
"My nephew will do it. When my nephew settles down, my nephew will go."
Yan Xiang nodded slightly, pointed his trembling right hand towards the direction of his five wives, but Wang Fan didn't understand what he meant.
"Young clan leader, the clan leader wants you to help him." Yan Xiang's fifth wife owed to Wang Fan.
"Oh" Wang Fan stepped forward and changed his seat with Yan Xiang and my wife. Everyone guessed that Yan Xiang might want to tell Wang Fan something secret, and they all consciously retreated.
"Ayu, Ayuan... Thank you." When a person dies, his life and death are no longer important, and what he considers is his descendants.
Wang Fan held Yan Xiang and touched his thin body. He felt the gasping and uneven breathing sounds on his body. Naturally, he imagined the scene of his grandfather entrusting himself in the cradle to Yan Bo and his adoptive father at the last moment of his life.
"My nephew promised that he would treat them well. Don't worry, uncle."
Yan Xiang nodded slightly, closed his eyes and rested for a while, as if he was gathering the last energy on his body.
"Pillow...There are secrets on the horizontal plaque on the top floor of the main building...there are secrets, and they all have to do with your father's departure. You... pick it up and study it carefully, but... don't rush to start, study it before doing it, you...your father is just too anxious." It's just the longest sentence Wang Fan has ever said since he met Yan Xiang.
"Secret? What secret?"
"Treasure... is just a legend... don't be in a hurry... danger." After saying that, Yan Xiang closed his eyes again, gasped heavily, and leaned back slightly.
Wang Fan knew that he meant lying down. He put Yan Xiang flat and lie down. Yan Xiang's uneven breathing sound became heavier and heavier. Wang Fan had to call A Tai over.
"Young Master, the old master hasn't said this for a long time. I'm probably tired." Atae looked at Yan Xiang lying on the bed, and his eyes were a little wet.
"Well, okay, then you take good care of my second uncle, and I won't disturb him to rest." Wang Fan looked at Yan Xiang again. An old man who was about to die of oil lamp was no longer resentful.
After leaving the Nanlou, Wang Fan couldn't calm down for a long time. Maybe his grandfather was so helpless and helpless when he was dying.
Back to the main building, Wang Fan went straight to the fifth floor. There was a small hall in the center of each floor of the main building. Each hall had the same style. There was a wood carving painting on the shadow wall. Below it was an antique square table and a pair of nanmu chairs. It was just that the wood carving paintings on each floor were different.
Wang Fan himself lived in the house in the east next to the small hall on the fifth floor. If Yan Xiang hadn't explained that he was busy cleaning up when he moved in yesterday, and Wang Fan hadn't had time to investigate carefully when he was in and out.
The five-story wood carving paintings are nothing special, just an ordinary picture of plum blossoms that proclaim the spring. Since they have been painted, they cannot see the age. However, they still feel a bit old from the handicraftsmanship. There is indeed a plaque on the painting. In the small hall of the main building, there is a two-meter-long plaque with the words "The Earth Rejuvenation" on it, which is also a very ordinary artistic conception. At a glance, you won't leave any impression at all.
Wang Fan jumped up lightly, climbed the beam on the top with one hand, and looked behind the plaque. Sure enough, there was a small box in the middle of the plaque. Wang Fan leaned over and took out the small box.
As soon as he fell to the ground, he heard Liu Xin going upstairs. Wang Fan quickly stuffed the box in his hand into Yuhan's arms. This was a secret related to the Jing clan. Before he could figure it out, he didn't want to know too much for others.
"Oh, why do you get up so early?" Liu Xin's sports outfit seemed to have just returned from the morning transportation.
Although he had experienced dual cultivation with Wang Fan, he had not yet announced his identity in the clan, so Liu Xin was still Anlan. Sisi and the others lived on the fourth floor together. There were only Wang Fan on the fifth floor, Yu Han and his adopted father. Yu Han could live on the fifth floor. It was only because Yu Han could live on the fifth floor.
"Aren't you very early?" Looking at Liu Xin looking at Yu Han's eyes, Wang Fan guessed that the reason why Liu Xin came up was nothing more than to see if there was any "substantive progress" between Wang Fan and Yu Han. Since this little woman learned the true meaning of Yu Han's "saint" when she was allocating the room yesterday, she felt a little jealous of Yu Han.
"Haha" Seeing that Wang Fan guessed his intention, Liu Xin smiled awkwardly, but soon returned to her maternal atmosphere: "I haven't enjoyed these hundreds of years of old buildings when I moved in yesterday. Didn't you live here before? Take me around to see."
"I just lived in the South Building at that time, and I couldn't get in and out of the main building, and I wasn't very familiar with it." Yuhan said while looking at Wang Fan. She knew that the small box that Wang Fan just took down must be a major secret in the Jing clan. As the saint of the Jing clan, she also wanted to know what it was, so she found a reason to shirk it away.
"Or, you can visit my bedroom first." Wang Fan walked up and hugged Liu Xin's shoulder, walked towards his room, and waved his other hand behind him to Yu Han, meaning that Yu Han would hide the box first.
"What's the best thing about your room?" Liu Xin pouted, but she still walked in with Wang Fan.
"Hmph" Yu Han stomped his feet behind Wang Fan and returned to his room with a deep hatred. Among Wang Fan's women, the one she disliked the most was Liu Xin. If Liu Xin and Wang Fan had not learned dual cultivation skills, she would not be willing to accept this woman.
In fact, Wang Fan was also very arrogant towards Liu Xin. Liu Xin's personality was a bit unruly. Wang Fan already felt that her joining would probably cause disharmonious voices among women in the future.
Sure enough, as soon as he turned into the house, Liu Xin immediately pushed Wang Fan to the wall: "Tell me, did you ask Yuhan to accompany you in the bed yesterday?"
"Of course not. If you want her to accompany the bed, then you have to wait until yesterday? We have not lived together for a day or two."
"That's right." Liu Xin thought about it.
"Do you care about her being with me?" Wang Fan asked. "Even if I am besides you, I want a few other women." Wang Fan reminded that he had also told Liu Xin several times.
"I don't care about you before, nor do I care about you, but I'm just your last one." Liu Xin said angrily.
"Yuhan is also my previous woman. She had already decided to be my woman when she was a teenager."
"I don't care." Liu Xin was also confused. She also asked about Yuhan's affairs, but she just couldn't get through this hurdle.
Looking at Liu Xin's appearance, Wang Fan didn't know what to say.
"Qukou" Yuhan knocked on the door, "Young clan leader, Yan Bo is here, he has something to come to you." Yuhan still followed the etiquette of the clan in the clan in the relationship.
"Here I'm here, I'll go down right away." Wang Fan responded.
"Did she chew my tongue in front of you again?" Yuhan, who was following Wang Fan, asked angrily.
Wang Fan frowned, without answering, and kept walking downstairs.
"Hmph, I knew it was like this, this little girl..."
Wang Fan didn't understand what to ask about the women, but Liu Xin and Yuhan couldn't get along.
When we arrived at the side hall downstairs, Yan Bo was already waiting there, and there was also a deputy priest who came with him, and there was a large stack of documents and materials on the table.
