The author has something to say: I made a big mistake in yesterday's chapter. Zhang Ruitong and Zhang Qishan are grandparents. I wrote it as father and son. It has been corrected today. Please forgive me.

"I decided to choose Ruitong to be this Zhang Qiling."

"Zhang Ruitong obviously intermarried with a foreign clan, and he is no longer a member of the direct line. How can he be qualified to be the patriarch! Isn't the blood of the little devil very high? Choose him." Little devil?Could it be Zhang Qiling?Zhang Zhan looked again, and it was still the same person who interrupted just now.Meow meow, this person is so annoying!

"He is not qualified to be the patriarch." Huh?It's not the same attitude as in the morning.Zhang Zhan felt that her mind was going crazy, these people were so complicated, she could feel that the elder was protecting Zhang Qiling, but why didn't she just say that Zhang Qiling was the next patriarch?Could it be that someone here still wants to kill him?

"That's it, Ruitong. The special ceremony will not be held now. You take this ancient black gold knife and trim it a little. After ten days, you will set off for the ancient building and bring the body of the previous patriarch. One will go with you, and the others will go away."

When the elders' courtyard was empty, Zhang Zhan was about to float back to Zhang Ruitong's courtyard to continue observing the grandparents and grandchildren, when the elder sitting in the main hall suddenly said, "Son, tell Zhang Qiling that we are going to leave in ten days."

Zhang Zhan was stunned for a moment, remembering that the elder knew of his existence, so he agreed.

Zhangjiatong Courtyard.

"Grandpa, have you become the patriarch? But aren't you married to grandma?" Zhang Qishan was very surprised when he saw the black gold ancient knife brought back by Zhang Ruitong. I always feel that something is wrong.

"Well, please stay with me in Zhang's house. I will take the body of the former patriarch to the ancient building in ten days."

"Ancient building?"

"Yes, that is the resting place of my Zhang family's ancestors for generations. Qishan, come here."

Zhang Ruitong turned around and took out a small key from the hidden compartment on the wall and handed it to Zhang Qishan.

"Qishan, I deposited some gold in a bank opened by the Germans. This is the key to the safe. If I fail to come out of the ancient building this time, then you can take this gold and do whatever you want. "

"Grandpa, what do you mean? Isn't it just going back to the ancestral grave?"

"Qishan, the Zhang family is not as simple as you imagined. The Zhang family alone can live to be hundreds of years old. It is not easy for a family to exist for thousands of years. Originally, grandpa thought that I would take you with me. The family is not that sad, but the ancient building is too dangerous, I am not sure that I can come back."

"Isn't the Zhang family's ancient building just a place where the Zhang family's corpses are placed?"

"Qishan, it's a more dangerous place than Jilou, and I don't know what's in it, but I once heard my grandfather say that the ancient Zhangjialou can be said to be the safest place in the world. With this The Zhang family has been able to guard the core secrets for thousands of years.”

"Grandpa, I've always wanted to know what the Zhang family is protecting?"

"I don't know either, maybe I'll understand when I go to the ancient building. If I really don't come back, you have to remember to leave the Zhang family with the gold and the rest of our team."

"why?"

Zhang Ruitong did not answer.

Zhang Zhan floated back to Zhang Qiling's room, she wanted to take a rest, she felt that she seemed to understand what was going to happen.Seeing that Zhang Qiling didn't intend to open his eyes, she lay beside him and closed her eyes.Outside, the weather is sunny and sunny.

The next morning, when Zhang Zhan opened his eyes, he saw that Zhang Qiling had got up and was about to speak, but Zhang Qiling covered his mouth, and then saw Zhang Qiling motioning her to hide.When Zhang Zhan was out of sight, Zhang Qiling quickly walked to the window and saw one or two people quietly hiding around Zhang Qiling's room.

"Zhang Qiling, what are they going to do?"

"In a few days, they will naturally know what they are going to do."

"By the way, Zhang Qiling, the elder asked me to tell you that he is going to leave in ten days. I saw Zhang Ruitong's grandson, Zhang Qishan, squatting near the Jilou for a long time, and heard the conversation between his grandson and grandson. Zhang Ruitong made a new Patriarch, he will go to the ancient building in ten days, but according to him, it is very dangerous to go to the ancient building, and there may be no return. Do you know where the ancient building is?"

Obviously, Zhang Qiling didn't know that everything was a mess now. From the moment Zhang Qiling stepped into the Zhang family, he felt that the Zhang family was filled with a calmness that was about to come. The closer the day of departure, this feeling thicker.During the days when he was preparing to leave, someone was always watching Zhang Qiling, but Zhang Qiling didn't expose it. After getting up, he went to the school and martial arts hall, and then came back to sleep at night.

And Zhang Zhan drifted to Zhang Ruitong's yard from time to time, she felt that she might know something after following Zhang Ruitong.Sure enough, three days before the departure, Zhang Ruitong asked Zhang Qishan to leave the Zhang family alone without taking anything, as if he was just going out for a while, at least until the day of departure, Zhang Qishan did not come back.

Soon the day of departure came, but none of them made it.Zhang Ruitong and his party were blocked in the Zhang family's mansion, and the division within the Zhang family was on the verge of breaking out.

"Zhang Ruinan, what are you doing?"

"Patriarch, let us check to see if you have taken anything you shouldn't have."

"Presumptuous! Zhang Ruinan, do you want to challenge the elders' house?" The old man's voice came from behind.

"Elder, we also opened up and said that what you sent people to bring back should not be just black gold ancient knives. There are no corpses in this coffin at all, and they are all brought out from the Jilou."

"You don't need to know, get out of the way!"

They were indeed right. On several nights, Zhang Qiling was quietly taken to the pole building by the elders to take out the contents of the pole building. There were not only those rare treasures in the coffin, but also some wooden boxes, but these wooden boxes were all Empty, all the really important things are here with her.

"Elder, these are all belongings of the clan. If you don't take them out today, then don't blame us for being rude. Who doesn't want to live to be [-] years old like you? You old man, why stop us?" In search of longevity."
