Go crazy!You call me the ultimate?

The ancient building of the Zhang family, where all the secret cemeteries of the Zhang family are buried.

It finally appeared in front of people today. This is the secret realm that the Zhang family wants to protect, and it is also the place where "it" deliberately wants to come in.

Ji Changsheng was also faintly excited, the biggest secret in the world of tomb robbers was about to be revealed!
Under his leadership, the crowd quickly came to the ancient building.

Looking at the ancient building up close, it looks more majestic and magnificent, with a height of more than 100 meters, which is as high as a 20-storey building!

It covers an area of ​​tens of thousands of square meters, which is about the size of a football field.

Wu Xie couldn't help admiring.

"It's incredible that people built such a magnificent building more than 100 years ago!"

"There is nothing better than this."

Fatty's eyes were even brighter, and his mouth almost blew out.

"No matter what age this ancient building is placed, it is a huge project. It seems that the Zhang family is really rich!"

When he thought of how many gold and silver treasures there were in the ancient building, he felt itchy.

Although it would be too much to steal his family's ancestral grave in front of my brother, but I can steal a few things without telling my brother.

This ancient building is not only tall and majestic, but also has carved beams and painted buildings. The level of craftsmanship can be called the ceiling of an ancient building, which is comparable to the ancient buildings in the imperial city!

Even Ji Changsheng sighed.

"The Xianglei family deserves to be the royal architects. The title of number one in the world is not for nothing."

"If this ancient building is on the ground, it will definitely be a national treasure!"

Aning noticed that the ancient building seemed to be damaged, so she pointed to it.

"Mr. Ji, look, the guardrail on the third floor has been damaged. Outsiders have been here before!"

Everyone looked up and saw that the guardrail on the third floor was severely damaged in several places, as if left by a fierce fight.

This can't help but make Ji Changsheng feel a little surprised. Didn't Chen Wenjin and the others fail when they came in more than 20 years ago?

It is impossible to enter here without the real Zhang Qiling leading the team.

The Zhang family will definitely not destroy it themselves, it can only be left by outsiders.

Who the hell did that?

After thinking about it, he immediately said.

"Everyone follow me, there are agencies ambush everywhere in this ancient building, be careful."

After speaking, walk towards the door on the first floor.

The gate is also very magnificently built, the gate is painted with red paint, and there are ninety-nine and 81 copper nails on the gate. These are the privileges that only the royal family can enjoy.

Fatty grew up in the capital, and he often went to the Forbidden City to play. He naturally knew this kind of common sense very well.

When he saw the copper nails on the door, he couldn't help showing a surprised expression.

"Brother, your ancestors of the Zhang family are afraid to rebel, how dare you overstep the rules?"

In ancient times, it was a very serious crime to violate the system, especially in the early days of the dynasty when the imperial power was stable, those who dared to do so basically had a big death letter written on their faces.

However, more than 100 years ago, it was the end of the last dynasty in China. The imperial family had long lost control over the local area.

So in that era, the Zhang family would not be held accountable for doing such a thing.

The little brother didn't speak, just stretched out his hand and pushed gently.

The heavy door opened in response to the sound, and it was not locked at all.

Ji Changsheng couldn't help frowning slightly, which was unreasonable.

The Zhang family ancient building is the Zhang family's cemetery, and I definitely don't want anyone to disturb it. Why is the gate unlocked?

Could it be that someone has rushed in ahead of them!
He stepped forward to take a closer look, and denied the guess.

The gate and the ground were covered with thick dust, and the porch was covered with cobwebs, and there was no sign of anyone entering.

Ji Changsheng didn't think much, and was the first to go in.

This ancient building is a traditional style with a wide bottom and a narrow top. The first floor has the largest area, which is close to the size of a football field!
After entering, take a look around, and there are thousands of coffins densely placed on the entire first floor!
It really is the Zhang family's cemetery!

Everyone followed Ji Changsheng inside, and when they passed by those coffins, they found that these coffins were very ordinary in shape and looked ordinary.

It's just that there is a small wooden sign in front of each coffin, but it doesn't look like a spiritual tablet, it's more like a tombstone.

Fatty took a closer look and couldn't help but read out loud.

"Zhang Haoran, a native of Subei. He was young and brave. In the 25th year of Kangxi's expedition to the Northwest to quell the chaos, he beheaded 68 people and captured [-] thieves. He was named Zhongyong Bo. The next year he was [-] years old."

After reading, he was stunned for a moment, then turned around and asked.

"Naive, what is Uncle Zhongyong? Is he the emperor's uncle?"

When Wu Xie heard this, she was taken aback.

"What uncle, uncle, is the first earl of the Qing Dynasty!"

When everyone heard this, they were all shocked.

The titles of the Qing Dynasty, in addition to the princely title, were divided into five levels of men's Bohou Gong, a total of ten levels.

The person who was awarded the first-class earl for his military exploits is definitely a general with great military exploits, enough to be recorded in the annals of history!

For such a big person, the tomb must be a very grand tomb.

Unexpectedly, after his death, only the most ordinary coffin was used, and he lived in a Datong shop with thousands of people.

Isn't this treatment too shabby?

After Wuxie thought about it, she looked at the coffins next to her.

At a glance, it made him even more puzzled.

The next few Zhang family members include a scholar, a butcher, a farmer, and a Qipin county magistrate.

The status of these people is far from being comparable to that of the count, and they were actually buried together.

It seems that the order of the Zhang family's burial is not based on their status.

"Is it by year?"

The fat man shook his head immediately.

"Although my history is not good, I also know that Kangxi is the third emperor of the Qing Dynasty, and there are only two emperors in front of him."

"If it is buried according to the age, it should be the talent in the Guangxu period."

At this time, Ji Changsheng said lightly.

"They are ranked according to their achievements."

Everyone couldn't help but stare blankly, all looked at him in bewilderment.

A fierce general who beheaded 200 enemies and captured 3000 alive, in terms of achievements, how can those few peasant talents compare with him?
Ji Changsheng immediately added a sentence.

"Contribution to the Zhang family."

When everyone heard this, they suddenly realized.

Regardless of the status of these Zhang family members, their contribution to the Zhang family is the only criterion for judging. After death, they will be buried in the ancient building of the Zhang family according to their merits.

If this is the case, there should be many Zhang family members who are not qualified to be buried in the ancient building, and those who can be buried here are only a very small part.

Looking at the more than 1000 coffins, Wu Xie seemed to have realized something.

"I understand. It is a great honor for the Zhang family to be buried here."

When the fat man heard this, he couldn't help frowning.

"A dignified earl, without a grand funeral, the coffin was randomly thrown on the first floor, squeezed into a room with so many people."

"What kind of honor is this? If I were the earl, I would definitely not want to be buried here."

3 Chapter Twenty

Fatty expressed his incomprehension to Wu Xie's conjecture.

"More than 1000 people are crowded in a Datong shop, and the descendants don't even have a place to burn paper to worship, so it's better to be buried outside."

"What kind of honor is this?"

Although his words are rough, but the truth is such a truth.

Chinese people pay attention to the concept of family and worship ancestors. Worshiping ancestors is an extremely important activity during festivals. No matter which dynasty, Ching Ming Festival is a legal holiday.

As the collective cemetery of the Zhang family, the Zhang family ancient building is hidden so secretly, for fear of being discovered by others, which obviously violates common sense.

Wuxie said immediately.

"Have you forgotten, the Zhang family's biggest secret is hidden in the Zhang family's ancient building, how can it be buried outside."

"There must be a purpose for them to do this."

The fat man scratched his scalp and said.

"Can't confidential things be hidden in another place? It's strange that they have to be put together with the ancestral grave."

Wu Xie thought for a while, but couldn't answer this question.

Everyone was also confused and looked at Ji Changsheng together.

Ji Changsheng thought for a moment, then said.

"The secret they want to protect may be related to these remains!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone couldn't help but look at each other, even the younger brother showed suspicion.

What secrets can a dead man have?
If the Zhang family has secrets that no one knows, then Zhang Qiling, as the patriarch, should be the first to bear the brunt of it!
It's a pity that he lost his memory, even if he had a secret, he couldn't remember it.

The fat man looked at the little brother, and said cautiously.

"Brother, I have an inappropriate proposal. If you don't think it's right, just treat it as my fart and don't take it to heart."

The little brother looked at the fat man and seemed to guess what he was thinking.

"You want to open the coffin for an autopsy?"

The fat man nodded.

"That's right, since your Zhang family's secret is related to these remains, why don't you just open it and have a look?"

"But this will offend the ancestors of the Zhang family. If you don't want to, just pretend I didn't say it."

The little brother didn't speak, and walked directly to a coffin.

A palm was slapped on the coffin lid, and the coffin lid opened in response.

Seeing this, the fat man couldn't help but secretly rejoiced, and said hastily.

"One research sample is probably not enough, we need to look at more samples, and I will help you."

After speaking, he took out the engineering shovel and began to pry the coffin. Of course, his mind was to open the coffin and make a fortune.

The little brother ignored the fat man's little thoughts, and just stared intently at the remains in the coffin.

Ji Changsheng stepped forward to take a look, but saw a male mummy in the coffin, wearing a mandarin jacket and long gown from the Qing Dynasty, with a hairstyle unique to the Qing Dynasty.

From the wooden sign in front of the coffin, it is known that this person was a teacher during the Qianlong period and had died for more than 200 years.

But the strange thing is that the corpse is extremely well preserved, without any sign of decay, it has become a dry corpse without moisture.

The little brother thought for a while, then stretched out his hand to look under the body, his expression changed slightly.

"No charcoal or lime."

Only in a dry environment, the corpse will become a mummified corpse.

However, the ancient building of the Zhang Family is located in a dark and humid huge cave. The environment here is not suitable for the production of mummified corpses. If it is not embalmed, the corpse will rot down to a pile of bones within three to five years.

So what happened to this mummy?
After thinking about it innocently, she said.

"I heard that if a monk is a monk, if he cultivates to the right fruit, his body will not rot. Could it be that this senior is a master of Taoism?"

The little brother squeezed the body, shook his head and said.

"Not like."

"Fatty, what about your situation?"

While they were observing the mummy, the fat man had already pried open two sets of coffins, and was groping for valuable treasures in the coffins.

Hearing what the little brother said, he was shocked and quickly replied.

"I'm doing fine here, I'm fine."

The little brother frowned.

"I'm asking about the corpse!"

The fat man wiped off his cold sweat, looked at the corpse, and said.

"A man and a woman, two mummified corpses, it seems that they were buried together as husband and wife."

Turning his head to look at the wooden sign again, he showed a puzzled expression again.

"Why are these two couples named Zhang?"

When Ji Changsheng heard this, he immediately ordered.

"Look at some more and choose randomly."

Everyone immediately started to move their hands, with a hammer here and a mallet here, and dozens of coffins were opened, making a mess of this floor.

In the end, without exception, all of them were mummy!
This situation confirmed Ji Changsheng's guess that the Zhang family's secret was related to these corpses!

After thinking for a while, the little brother cupped his hands at the corpse in the coffin and said silently.

"Zhang Qiling offended."

After finishing speaking, he reached out and took out the mummy from the coffin, and observed it carefully.

But I saw that this was a man in his 50s. Although he had turned into a mummy, it could be seen that when he was alive, he had a burly figure and slender limbs.

After a closer look, Wu Xie found a clue.

"Brother, this man's right index finger and middle finger are the same as yours."

The two fingers of the little brother are very long, which is very different from ordinary people, and it can be seen at a glance.

Fatty also called out.

"The Zhang family are all the same, they all have very long fingers!"

Everyone felt very strange about this discovery.

Could it be caused by Zhang family's unique genetics?
But this kind of speculation is obviously unreliable. The Zhang family is a huge family, and the number of members scattered across the country is unknown.

After thousands of years, even if the Zhang family has special genetics, the blood of the descendants will gradually be weakened due to the intermarriage of generations.

How could it remain unchanged for thousands of years!
At this time, Fatty made another surprising discovery.

"Those dozen or so couples were buried together, and all of them are named Zhang!"

In other words, the Zhang family will only intermarry with the Zhang family!

However, close marriages will cause many genetic diseases in the offspring. Why does the Zhang family maintain such a tradition?
Ji Changsheng looked at his little brother and said softly.

"The answer lies in the unique blood of the Zhang family!"

In order not to let the blood of the Zhang family spread to the outside world, they can only intermarry internally!

In other words, the secrets of the Zhang family are hidden in their blood!

But here comes the problem. As we all know, Master Zhang's wife is Yin Xinyue, not the Zhang family.

Ji Changsheng looked up at the stairs in the distance.

"If you want to know the final answer, go up and take a look."

In this first floor, apart from more than 1000 coffins and mummies, there are no other clues.

So, people followed Ji Changsheng up the stairs to the second floor.

The second floor is not much different from the first floor, except that the area is smaller, and there are about seven or eight hundred coffins.

Everyone stepped forward to check, but found no other clues, so they went to the third floor.

When they reached the third floor, hundreds of separate rooms appeared before them.

Each room is seven or eight square meters in size, and a coffin is placed inside, which is higher than the two floors below.
