The first thousand three hundred and sixty-three chapters is a big lie
Mei'er's mind was very confused. The patriarch's words brought too much impact to her. Have you been deceived? What are you? Who are the people on this island?
Out of self-protection, Mei'er immediately pointed the crossbow at the patriarch. If the other party could not give a reasonable explanation, she would never be ruthless, no matter what the other party's identity was.￡∝,
"Tell me, who are you, what are you explaining about the Shanmei clan, and what happened back then?" Mei'er shouted loudly.
But then, the patriarch's behavior once again shocked Mei'er. He knelt on the ground, buried his head deeply, and shouted: "Greetings to Princess!"
"Master Princess, what does it mean?" Mei'er's mouth slowly opened, and her mind was almost blurred. What does this mean?
The dozen tribes behind the tribe leader also looked at the tribe leader in surprise, looking at him at a loss.
"What are you looking at? The princess is back. Why don't you pay a visit to me now!" The patriarch turned his head and scolded loudly.
"Ah!" Only then did more than a dozen tribesmen wake up as if they were dreaming and bowed down: "Welcome to the princess to return!"
"You'd better not play tricks and explain to me what's going on?" Mei'er's right hand muscles were tense, and she pointed at the clan leader in a row. This scene was too weird.
The patriarch said: "Princess, please listen to my subordinates slowly... You are indeed a princess, the royal family of the Great Shang Dynasty. We are not the Shanmei clan at all, but a group of people who protect the blood of the Great Shang Dynasty royal family!"
"At that time, the Great Shang Dynasty was in chaos, and the royal family was eventually destroyed by the thieves. The only one who escaped was a three-year-old child... Our ancestors were entrusted by the royal family and protected the royal bloodline for generations to make a comeback!"
Mei'er narrowed her eyes. The arrow box of the crossbow let out a Kara and said coldly: "You are lying. A thousand years ago, you would have guarded a royal family for so long. Besides, after thousands of years of development, even if the population is small, there will be no one thousand people."
"Princess, you don't know that it's not that we don't want to develop, but that we don't dare to develop. In the early days of the demise of the Great Shang Dynasty, the rioters in the world were searching for the Da Shang royal family, and the ancestors dared not show up. Moreover, there were only less than thirty guards at that time... After that, they were always engaged in the Shanmei clan, and they had very little contact with the outside world, so the population naturally could not develop."
He took a deep breath. The patriarch said: "In order to preserve the roots of the royal family, the ancestors secretly plundered women. Now the princess is already the 23rd generation of the royal family!"
When Mei'er heard these words from the clan leader, she was shocked. She turned out to be a descendant of the Da Shang royal family. This... the sudden burst of information was too much, which caused her to not come back to her senses.
"That's why I said, "What can't get married and have children with ordinary people, and what kind of martial arts geniuses are all made up, and there is no Shanmei clan at all! So when we were attacked by Chongming Island, we were completely destroyed by the other party. Because we are not martial arts geniuses at all!" The patriarch said and sighed.
"Then why do you call yourself the Shanmei clan and why do you make up such a lie? And the ability to find ore veins is also made up by mistake, right?" Mei'er asked.
"Yes, these are all made up! Even that super mine vein does not exist at all... We only have one purpose for this. It is to assist the royal family in re-establishing the Shang Dynasty and unifying the entire continent... We pretended to be the Shanmei clan at first, but we also tried to hide our identities. We tried not to contact people and avoid hunting... and then we continued to use it. It was for a plan!" The patriarch seemed to have no intention of hiding it at all.
"The Shanmei clan is a martial arts genius and cannot marry and have children with normal people. And no one knows where, no one can find it. This adds to our sense of mystery... The Yuanshi ore vein we went out to help people find it was actually not found by ourselves, but based on the information left by the Da Shang Dynasty. This will give people an illusion that the Shanmei clan has the talent to find Yuanshi ore vein!"
With the explanation from the patriarch, Mei'er's emotions slowly relaxed, she lowered the crossbow in her hand and said lightly: "So, that super Yuanshi ore vein is a huge lie..."
The patriarch nodded and said, "Nothing at all! When I was in Da Shang, this super Yuanshi Mine was a legend. No one knew the truth or falsehood, nor did he know the location... The news circulating in the mainland is released by our ancestors, and a location was added to the original news..."
Mei'er finally understood and looked at the clan leader and said lightly: "The Shanmei clan has the talent to find ore veins. If you give this super ore veins a certain news at this time, the entire continent will be in chaos because of this!"
The patriarch said: "Yes, the Qiankun Empire was originally constantly in conflict with the eight kingdoms. Once this news was released, there would be a complete chaos in the world! Then our opportunity will come!"
Mei'er couldn't tell her feelings at the moment. It turned out that the jade pendant had no connection with a super mine vein, but she could confirm her birthday. She originally thought she could help her brother, but she didn't expect it to be like this... If the major forces knew about this news, I don't know what the expression would be. Especially the leader of Xuanyuan Tianzong who is now imprisoned in Xingchen Territory, he would probably regret it to death. If it weren't for this mine vein, how could he attack Yueying and how could he fall to the current stage?
"It's a pity that the plan failed at the last moment. Just as we were about to move to the mainland, we were discovered by Chongming Island..." The patriarch shook his head helplessly.
Mei'er asked: "Doesn't there be any doubts about Chongming Island? The strength you showed is not as strong as the legendary Zhongshan Mei clan!"
The patriarch shook his head and said, "At that time, our strength was still very strong. There were more than a hundred masters of vitality, and Chongming Island also paid a huge price. Later, Chongming Island threatened us with our children and forced us to give up resistance, so they did not doubt it."
Mei'er was speechless after hearing this, glanced at the patriarch and said, "It's been a thousand years since it has developed so much strength. Where can you get the confidence to move to the mainland? You can't even withstand the attack from Chongming Island!"
After hearing this, the patriarch seemed very calm and said, "It's not that the ancestors didn't want to develop, but that they dared not be too eye-catching. Even overseas... Once our plan is successful, wars in the mainland begin and overseas joins, there will be a large number of disaster victims. Then we will definitely succeed. Before the big merchants fell apart, they left a lot of information and treasures, which is the real treasure... As far as I know, there are many ancient secrets in those materials, and once they are cracked, they are not our opponents!"
Mei'er felt aroused when she heard this. There was a saying about Da Shang ruins before. Xian Ning was the master of researching that, and Xuanyuan Tianzong was also the beneficiary of the ruins. Could it be that the jade pendant pointed to the real ruins?
"Princess, when you left, I knew there would be such a day. Now that you are back, we will be able to rebuild the Shang Dynasty!" said the patriarch with a smile.
Seeing the patriarch's expression, Mei'er suddenly felt a strange feeling, but she couldn't say anything.
"Where are there no one in the royal family except me? I have to be my parents still there?" Mei'er asked. She didn't want to establish a great Shang Dynasty. She just wanted to know whether her parents were built. Then she had to find a way to return to her brother. Knowing that the Shanmei clan was fabricated and that she could not have children, she never wanted to leave Jiang Xingchen again.
"Oh!" The patriarch shook his head and sighed: "Originally, the Great Merchant Royal Family has grown to 115 people! But when the battle with Chongming Island, coupled with the isolation from the outside world for the past 30 years, there are less than half of them left, and your parents are gone. You are the only one among the younger generation...!"
Mei'er's eyes shrank suddenly, and two cold lights burst out when she looked at the patriarch's eyes. Everyone was protecting the royal family, and there would be so many casualties, especially the next generation.
The patriarch hurriedly explained: "When Chongming Island used a large number of crossbows to attack our next generation, causing many casualties, which led to us being forced to surrender... So when they asked to find the super mine vein, we asked to take you away, otherwise we would never compromise. It was just to have the opportunity to let you leave. After all, we were all imprisoned at that time. Even if we used secret methods to unlock the ban, we would not be able to guarantee that we could break through successfully, and the royal bloodline could not be left in one place."
Mei'er looked at the clan leader coldly. Although he said it reasonably, he always felt that it was too strange. Among all the royal bloodlines, he was the only one left among the younger generations.
"How did you confirm my identity just now? Is it because of the pink jade pendant?" Mei'er asked.
"I really don't know the pink jade pendant, but your appearance is almost exactly the same as your mother when she was young, so I confirmed that you must be the royal family that was taken away back then... Because no matter the people from Chongming Island or the Young Master Nangong, you don't know that you are your mother's child, so the possibility of fraud is extremely low. Then you said the 10th day of the third month of the Great Moon King calendar, and this is absolutely impossible to be wrong!"
Mei'er nodded and fell into silence. She really didn't expect the final result to be like this. In fact, she was not interested in the royal family of the Great Merchant. What she most wanted now was to go back and meet her brother immediately, and find out the reason why she was not pregnant.
However, Mei'er looked up at the five-layer treasure ship that was still burning on the sea and sighed heavily. If she had known that there was no Shanmei clan, she would not have lost the opportunity to give birth and would not burn the five-layer treasure ship no matter what she said. Now it is impossible to go back. The third level of Yuanqi cultivation level enters the deep ocean and is almost dead and lifeless. Storms alone can consume the vital energy in the body.
"Sir, please go back with us first. Everyone will be very happy to see you back!" The patriarch summoned behind.
Mei'er looked back at him and nodded silently. For some reason, the patriarch gave her a very strange feeling, but she couldn't tell what the blame was.
"Hey! I still can't do it. If my brother is here, I will definitely see the clues!" After muttering in my heart, Mei'er turned around and walked over.
But just as she turned around, the sea suddenly felt like a pot was blooming, and the water splashes churned. (To be continued.)
