Chapter 97: Qu Family's Main Vein, Met Your Excellency
Two and a half hours later.
Zhou Sheng took a plane and arrived in Jingzhou.
After getting off the plane, Zhou Sheng went to the conveyor belt and waited for Liuli.
More than ten minutes later, the cat cage came along the conveyor belt, and Liuli slept soundly.
The other cats teleported together were trembling, as if they were frightened by Liuli.
"You." Zhou Sheng mentioned Liuli and left the airport.
Take a taxi and prepare to go to Shouling Station to find out about the third dragon vein.
"Master, go to Qu's house." Zhou Sheng said to the driver after getting in the car.
"Where to go?" The master has never heard of this place.
"Uh... go to Qu Gaotai." Zhou Sheng thought that it had now been changed to Qu Gaotai.
There are three families in the Chu State: Qu, Jing, and Zhao, and the Qu family has one lineage, which is the lineage of dead men.
Moreover, they were guarding the tomb of King Chu and their own king.
Zhou Sheng must first go to Qugaotai to find the dead members of the Qu family and find out the cause of the matter.
"Okay." The driver shifted into first gear, released the clutch and stepped on the accelerator, and the vehicle started off.
Take the Airport Expressway and go directly to Qujiatai.
"Young man, Qujiatai is a big place. Who are you looking for? I'm familiar with it and can drive you there." The driver asked Zhou Sheng.
"I want to find the Qu family." Zhou Sheng said directly.
"The Qu family..." After hearing this, the driver asked: "Do you want to be from the family with your own surname, or the family with your foreign surname?"
The Qu family is divided into original surname and foreign surname.
The original surname refers to the direct lineage, with pure blood, while the surname refers to people who mostly married off, or married to outsiders.
"My surname." Zhou Sheng said directly.
The dead soldiers are also from the same clan.
"I'm afraid it's a bit difficult. The Qu family rarely sees guests." The driver said to Zhou Sheng.
"When I get there, they will come out to greet me." Zhou Sheng said calmly.
When the driver heard this, he obviously didn't believe it, because he was not from the Qu family.
After driving for more than an hour, the driver arrived at a market town.
"Brother, this is the Qujia market town. If you want to go to the Qu family, you have to go through the market town." The driver stopped the car at the entrance of the market town.
"Okay, how much?" Zhou Sheng asked.
"It doesn't matter whether you have money or not. If you are a guest of the Qu family, I won't charge you." The driver got out of the driving seat and threw the key to a man.
"Qu Rong, help me run a taxi. It seems that a guest from my family is here." The driver said to the man.
"My real name?" The man was also a little confused.
The Qu family rarely go out and don't have many guests.
"I don't know if it's true or not, I'll just go and have a look," the driver said with a smile.
"Okay." Qu Rong closed his store, took the keys and drove away in a taxi.
Zhou Sheng carried the glass and walked directly into the market town.
Most of the things sold in Qujia Town are based on words and poems. They all claim to be the descendants of Qu Yuan, and the spirit of romanticism flows in their bones.
Zhou Sheng walked all the way to the end and saw a country road in front of him. There was an ancient clock at the intersection. Zhou Sheng could tell at a glance that it was the mausoleum bell.
When the guardian of the tomb rings the bell, the deceased must kneel down to see it.
On both sides of the path, there are some sparse manors, which are sparsely populated, but the people living there are all people of this surname.
Zhou Sheng walked over and picked up the hammer from beside the ancient clock.
When the driver saw this, he immediately said: "You can't knock it. This ancient clock is not a doorbell. You can't touch it."
Zhou Sheng glanced at him and said, "This ancient bell was prepared for me."
After speaking, he picked up the copper hammer and rang the ancient bell with a certain rhythm.
"Dang Dang Dang..."
The bell rang, and the lingering sound lingered.
Liuli, who was sleeping in the cat's nest, woke up instinctively, jumped out of the cat's nest, stood next to the ancient clock, lay down, put her head on the cat's paw, and kowtowed.
This is the instinct of a dead soldier.
When the ancient bell rings, all the dead soldiers must kneel down and worship!
Liuli is also a dead warrior, so when she hears the sound of the ancient bell, she will subconsciously come out and kneel down.
The sound spread deep into the depths, and many people came out of it.
One of them, an old man in his seventies, walked out tremblingly with the support of everyone.
"Who dares to ring the ancient bell?" Although the old man walked tremblingly, his voice was very loud.
"The emperors, generals and ministers all entered the mausoleum."
"Protect the king to rest in peace, and protect the dragon from death!"
"The trumpet sounds and the incense burner rises into the sky!"
"There are seven guards guarding the tomb, and the dead men obey them!"
Zhou Sheng read out the secret words of the tomb keeper.
After hearing this, the old man's whole body trembled, and his knees bent unconsciously.
"You...you..."
"Do you know your guilt?" Zhou Sheng shouted softly, and the old man knelt down with a plop.
Behind him, dozens of people from the Qu family were kneeling on the ground.
Their heads of family all knelt down, and they had to kneel down.
The driver following Zhou Sheng didn't know whether he should kneel or not.
Zhou Sheng thought wrongly. The lineage of dead soldiers is the main lineage of Qu family's original surname.
And the contemporary head of the Qu family is even more of a dead man.
His one sentence of questioning had already made everything clear.
"Old slave, you know your guilt!" The head of the Qu family kowtowed.
Although he was not born a hundred years ago, he heard his father tell him that the Qu family was guilty!
Failed to guard the king's tomb!
If one day the guardian of the tomb comes to blame, then all members of the Qu family will plead guilty.
The head of the Qu family thought that he would never see the tomb keeper in his lifetime, but he didn't expect that he would still come.
When Zhou Sheng walked into the courtyard, the head of the Qu family was kneeling on the ground, preparing to receive Zhou Sheng's confession.
"Let's talk in the lobby." Zhou Sheng said to him.
"promise!"
The head of the Qu family responded, then staggered up and led Zhou Sheng into the main courtyard of the Qu family.
The people who came in were all direct descendants of the Qu family, and there were only seven or eight of them.
They knew nothing but that the young man next to their father had a very high status.
They were also very curious. It was already the twenty-first century. Even if the King of Chu was resurrected, they did not need to salute. After all, ancient times were in the past.
And what is the identity of this person in front of me?
They followed their father ignorantly into the lobby.
Zhou Sheng was sitting on the master's chair, and the head of the Qu family stood in front of him, not daring to sit down.
If the head of the Qu family doesn't do anything, the sons behind him can only stand.
"Tell me, what's going on at the tomb of King Chu of Yingdu?" Zhou Sheng looked at the head of the Qu family with sharp eyes.
"It is my Qu family who failed to guard the tomb of King Chu. I, the Qu family, are the sinners." The head of the Qu family lowered his head and said.
"Father, what does the Tomb of King Chu of Yingdu mean?"
"Yes, how come my Qu family has become a sinner?"
"Father, it's the 21st century, why do we still have monarchs and ministers?"
They asked endlessly.
"Shut up." The head of the Qu family interrupted them with a loud shout.
"Although the king and ministers are gone, my identity is still there."
"How can the identity that has been passed down for thousands of years be cut off from me?"
After the master of the Qu family finished speaking, he bowed his hands and shouted: "Dead warrior, I have seen you, sir!"
He didn't dare to talk about the tomb keeper, because the tomb keeper was too sensitive at the moment.
He was afraid that the news would spread about his son.
