Great Eunuch of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 235 Cure the Leopard

Cloudless, clear sky that day.

The Lianjiabao was solemn and quiet. In the usually bustling fort, passers-by were in a hurry at this time, their expressions flustered, as if they were avoiding evil spirits. escape outside.

In the hall of the head of the Lianjiabao family, the members of the direct line of the Lian family are arguing fiercely, making the head of the Lianjiabao, who is sitting on the main seat, feel a little angry because of the noise, but these members of the direct line are not uncles The older generation is the elder brothers, and he really can't say anything ugly.

"Okay, stop arguing!" Lian Liankan shouted loudly.

When everyone heard the words, they immediately stopped their own words, and the hall was suddenly silent.

"The old man called you here to think of countermeasures, not to catch up with the big market. Tell me, how to deal with this matter better?" Lian Liankan asked while stroking his beard.

A bearded man said: "Patriarch, this great eunuch Wang Zhen sent Jin Yiwei to look around for a place called Lian Castle. It doesn't necessarily mean our place. There are many places called Lian Castle in the world, and our family has nothing. Let him see that even the castle is no longer a martial arts family."

Lian Liankan nodded and said: "The castle was the most powerful family in the past, and it was the first family in the martial arts. Although it has declined now, the background is still very sufficient. Have you forgotten the ancestor Lian Chengbi?"

"Could it be that the governor of Nine Frontiers is guarding the eunuchs, and the admiral of Dongchang, Wang Zhen, came here for the deer-cutting knife, or for the blood nerve?" The old man, who seemed to be dying, frowned and said, "This deer-cutting knife It has already been taken away by the Shen family, as for this blood nerve, it is a legendary thing, no one has ever seen it before, so we can’t destroy the Lianjiabao just because of this, right?”

"In order to prevent Wang Zhen's target from being the Lianjiabao, the big guy arranged for the disciples to hide outside for a while. If the Lianjiabao is destroyed, everyone can keep the fire." Lianliankan said.

"The head of the family is right, so let's quickly let the children go out to take refuge, and take away all that can be taken away." Even the family members came to the result together, and dispersed to make their own arrangements.

Only Lian Liankan, the Patriarch of Lianjiabao, and his son, Tongman, the young master of Lianjiabao, were left in the hall.

"Father, is the deer-cutting knife really in the Shen family?" Lian Man asked.

"Hehe, how could it be? This deer-cutting knife is a magic weapon. Even if Patriarch Lian Chengbi divorced the Shen family back then, the dowry deer-cutting knife was not given to the Shen family. The deer-cutting knife is not in the Shen family." Lianliankan laughed.

Lian Man was overjoyed and said: "So the deer cutting knife is in our Lian family?"

Lian Liankan shook his head, and said: "This deer cutting knife is not in the Lian family. If it were in the Lian family, our Lianjiabao, the number one martial arts family, would not have fallen into the land where it is now a landlord."

"Where is the deer-cutting knife?" Lian Man asked.

"This deer-cutting knife is in the tomb of the living dead ancestor Lianchengbi. At the beginning, the ancestor Lianchengbi practiced the blood nerve fragments. As a result, he made himself neither human nor ghost, so he locked himself in the living dead. In the tomb, he also ordered the descendants of Lianjiabao to put three cows into the tomb of the living dead every month for the ancestor Lianchengbi to suck blood. Three cows were put into the tomb, after all, Lianjiabao doesn’t collect a lot of land rent, and if the cows from the cultivated land are given to the ancestor Lianchengbi to suck blood, then Lianjiabao’s big family business can’t survive.” Lianliankan pouted and said.

"Isn't that bullying the master and destroying the ancestors? No one in the family objected to disrespecting the ancestors?" Tonglian asked suspiciously.

"Once this blood nerve has been cultivated, it will have to be replaced. After the replacement of the blood of the ancestor Lian Chengbi, to be honest, he is no longer the blood of the Lian family. Yes, old age is a thief, if the court finds out, the Lianjiabao and the tomb of the living dead must be leveled!" Lian Lian glanced at Lian Man and said.

"So that's the case. Since Lianjiabao doesn't have deer-cutting knives and blood nerves, why are you still afraid of Wang Zhen?" Lianjiaman asked.

"You rebellious son, how many times have I told you that you must read more, read more! Our family is going to change from a declining martial arts family to a scholarly family. Reading can make you understand a lot of truths. This Wang Zhen You have to scrape your skin wherever you go, if you don’t run away, it’s no wonder that the wealth that Lianjiabao has accumulated over the years won’t be emptied by Wang Zhen!” Lian Lian looked at the table and taught Lian Man a lesson.

"I see!" Lian Man nodded and said.

"Oh, that's it!" A young voice came from behind the screen.

"Who!" Lian Liankan yelled, and slapped the teapot on the table with his hand. The teapot flew towards the screen, and the teapot implying internal force penetrated the screen and hit the person behind the screen.

The person behind the screen stepped out, took the teapot just now in his hand, put his mouth to the teapot's spout, took a sip, and praised: "Not bad, not bad, it turned out to be the best jasmine tea, Lord Lianbao is very tasteful." !"

Lianliankan stared fiercely at this handsome young man, and saw that this young man was wearing a square scarf and a Confucian long gown. He looked gentle and elegant, not at all like a martial artist. His temperament made Lian Liankan even more vigilant. Just now, the teapot that implied the internal strength of a second-rate master was not broken or spilled a drop of tea in this person's hands. After hiding behind the screen for so long, he didn't even notice it at all. This shows this person's martial arts It's not 01:30 that the realm is stronger than oneself, Lianliankan dare not be careless in the slightest.

"Who are you?" Lian Lian was young and energetic, without so many thoughts, he pointed to the handsome boy's nose and asked, "Sneaky and sneaky, I will sue you at the government!"

"Hehe, this governor is Wang Zhen, the eunuch who guards the nine borders and the admiral of the East Factory. If you take the liberty of disturbing me, I hope the Lord Lianbao and Master Lian don't blame him." Wang Zhen cupped his hands at Lianliankan and Lianlianman, and said kindly.

"Pfft!"

"Pfft!"

When Lianliankan and Tongtongman heard Wang Zhen's self-introduction, they fell to their knees in fright, their legs trembling. Chitose! What the little old man said just now was all nonsense, let Jiuqian act like a little old man and fart! Nine thousand years old, don't get angry!"

"Nine thousand years old, the little one was so offensive just now, the little one kowtowed to you!" Lianlian kowtowed to Wang Zhen in a panic.

Chapter 236 The Tomb of the Living Dead

Chapter 236 The Tomb of the Living Dead

It wasn't until Lianliankan and Lianlianman's father and son bled, that Wang Zhen said slowly: "Oh, what is this for? It makes Bendu look like a vicious villain. Get up, Bendu won't blame you of."

"Thank you Jiuqiantui! Thank you Jiuqiantui for not killing me!" Lianliankan said as he stood up and bowed to Wang Zhen, shaking his head.

Lianlian was unable to get up from behind, and when Lian Liankan turned around to help him up, he realized that his son was so scared by Wang Zhen that he peed his pants.

"You guys are clear about the purpose of this governor's visit. Just now, I understand the situation of your Lianjiabao after hearing what you said. This governor is bound to win the deer-cutting knife. As for the blood nerve you mentioned, this governor I suddenly became a little interested, I don’t know where this blood nerve is?” Wang Zhen turned around and sat on the special seat where Lianliankan used to be, looking at Lianliankan and asked.

"Back to Jiuqian, this blood nerve is in the tomb of the living dead. If Jiuqian wants to go, the little old man will take Jiuqian there, but whether the ancestor Lianchengbi is still alive now, the little old man I don’t know, even if I’m still alive, I’d probably have already turned into a monster.” Lian Liankan said with a wry smile.

"Well, then you can take Bendu to take a look, and you don't need to worry about the rest. If Bendu can get the deer knife and blood nerves, then your Lianjiabao will be the outer intelligence network of Dongchang in the future. It's one of them, and the benefits are indispensable to you." Wang Zhen nodded and said with a smile when he heard the words.

Lian Lian Kan was overjoyed, and he and Lian Man looked at each other. The father and son saw the joy in each other's eyes. This kind of good thing that fell from the sky unexpectedly fell on Lian Jiabao's head. The peripheral forces of Dongchang, not to mention that they can walk sideways in the local area, at least no one dares to provoke them casually.I thought it was a disaster, but I didn't expect it to be a good thing.

"Go! Hurry up and call the direct descendants of the clan over for a meeting!" Lian Liankan said to Lianlianman.

Lianlianman knew the meaning of Lianliankan's words when he heard the words, and immediately apologized to Wang Zhen, turned and left the hall.

"Nine thousand years old, the keys to open the door of the tomb of the living dead in Lianjiabao are in the hands of several elders in the clan. The owner of the clan has the main key and five secondary keys. Six are required. Only when the key is inserted into the tomb door at the same time will the tomb of the living dead be opened, please wait a moment for Jiuqian, the little old man will definitely gather the clansmen to complete the task." Lianliankan patiently explained to Wang Zhen.

"Well, Ben Du is not in a hurry, but the pot of tea in your house is a little cold, go down and make another pot of tea for Ben Du." Wang Zhen pointed to the teapot on the table and said.

Lianlian looked at it for a moment, then stepped forward to grab the teapot, and said with a smile: "Nine thousand years old, please wait a moment, the little old man will go and bring you the best-quality Lapsang souchong."

Wang Zhen waved his hand and said, "Bendu is actually used to drinking a lot of top-quality tea, and I am really not used to drinking this high-grade tea."

After reading it again and again, I went to prepare tea for Wang Zhen, and Lian Man went to inform the clansmen. Wang Zhen sat on the seat and closed his eyes to rest, full of joy in his heart. It took him a long time to find this Lianjiabao. The first family of martial arts has not fallen into such a field. It really makes people lament the change of time and the impermanence of the world.As the saying goes, seeing him build a tall building, seeing him entertain guests, seeing his building collapse, no power can last forever, the only thing that remains unchanged is the spirit of self-improvement, everything can only be done and cherished.

"Big fellows hurry up and kowtow to Nine Thousand Years!" Lian Liankan yelled at the senior officials of Lianjiabao.

"Kowtow to nine thousand years old!" A group of high-ranking officials of the Lian family knelt in the hall and kowtowed to Wang Zhen.

"Get up!" Wang Zhen waved his hand lightly and said softly.

"Thank you Jiuqian!" Everyone in the Lian family shouted.

"The Patriarch probably has already told you about the matter, so hand over the key now, the benefits are indispensable to you." Wang Zhen said.

Standing out from the Lian family members were three old men with white beards and hair. They were all holding a simple copper key. There were some rust on the key. It seemed that it hadn't been used for a long time.

Lianliankan took the five keys, then reached out and took out a copper key from his pocket, handed it to Wang Zhen respectfully, and said: "Nine thousand years old, the gate of the tomb of the living dead The above six keys have been collected, shall we go to the Tomb of the Living Dead now?"

Wang Zhen reached out to take the six copper keys, nodded, and said, "Let's go, now is noon, the time when the sun is at its fullest. At this time, entering the cemetery will at least not bring bad luck."

Wang Zhen and Lianjiabao's party headed towards the tomb of the living dead on the mountain behind Lianjiabao. Lianjiabao's descendants saw Wang Zhen surrounded by their descendants and went up the mountain, and they all made a lot of noise. Followed behind, wanted to see what the tomb of the living dead in the forbidden area of ​​Lianjiabao looked like.

When Wang Zhen came to the tomb of the living dead, he realized that he was thinking a little too much. This so-called Lianjiabao tomb of the living dead was not as luxurious, weird or grand as he imagined. It was just a decoration for the cave. It's just an iron gate, and next to it is a tombstone with four big characters written: Tomb of the Living Dead.
