Apocalypse: Counterattack of a Cannon Fodder
Chapter 374
Jin Jue didn't hide it, and told the truth, he was indeed the one who sent someone to follow Tang shi.
Yan Xu asked him for a reasonable reason, otherwise this matter would not be easily passed.
Jin Jue couldn't explain too much, he only said that when Tang Shi came back, this matter would naturally be clear, so Yan Xu called Jin Jue after receiving the notice from the awakened soldiers who defended the city in the evening, and told him, Tang Shi is back.Only then did Jin Jue rush over with his father and elder brother who had been waiting for several days. This was what Tang Shi saw when he entered the door.
Neither Tang Shi nor Yan Xu expected that the other party would ask about the Mei family's affairs. They were very careful about the Mei family's affairs. If they were not careful, this matter would involve the treasure of the Mei family. Once it was involved, Tang shi's systemic affairs are likely to be exposed, because they can't guarantee that no one will know the secret of the Mei family's treasure.
"I'm not a descendant of the Mei family. My surname is Tang, not Mei." Tang Shi gave such an answer.
Jin Zhuo understood that Tang Shi was on guard against him, so he had no choice but to say: "Don't be nervous, I have no malicious intentions. Our Jin family has been looking for descendants of the Mei family since the end of the world. The scope is narrowed down to you, I just want to confirm whether you are a descendant of the Mei family, this matter is very important."
Tang Shi hesitated, "I am indeed not a descendant of the Mei family. My grandfather is Mei Fu, so he should be considered as a member of the Mei family. As for me, I should only be considered as a person with half the blood of the Mei family."
Hearing this answer, Jin Zhuoran breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid of being disappointed again. They had been looking for the descendants of the Mei family for almost three years. Many times, they thought it was too late, the descendants of the Mei family had already died. , if that is the case, then there is no hope for them.
"Then do you know the treasure of the Mei family?" Jin Zhuoran continued to ask.
When Tang Shi and Yan Xu heard this question, their eyes sank.
Tang Shi said, "I don't know."
Jin Zhuoran laughed. It was a happy smile. The reaction of Tang Shi and Yan Xu just now did not escape Jin Zhuoran's sight. He was already sure that Tang Shi knew what the Mei family's treasure was, but he just wanted to be on the safe side. , will not admit to others that the treasure of the Mei family is on him.
Jin Zhuoran could finally rest assured that the Jin family's search for so long was finally not in vain, and they finally found it.
"I want to ask, is 'Meijia Treasure' activated?" Jin Zhuoran spoke again.
Tang Shi's pupils contracted, his muscles tensed, and his murderous aura was released. It was Yan Xu who had the same reaction as him, and he also had the murderous intent.
Only then did Jin Zhuoran truly confirm Tang Shi's identity. He hurriedly stood up and bowed respectfully to Tang Shi. Jin Yu got up and followed his father's movements. Only Jin Jue still looked blank, but he also stood up , imitating the appearance of his father and elder brother, bowing respectfully.
Tang Shi and Yan Xu all stood up, not understanding what they were doing.
"My lord, our Jin family is your guardian. After the apocalypse, after we have the energy, the family heirloom of the Jin family is activated. According to the 'inheritance law' in the family treasure, the Jin family is the descendant of the Mei family for generations. Guardians, from ancient times to today."
Tang shi's eyes widened, and he couldn't react, what was going on.
"You...you..."
Jin Zhuoran straightened up and looked at Tang Shi, "I'm sorry, we are late. After the 'Law of Inheritance' was activated, we checked the map and searched for it according to the location stated in the Law of Inheritance. Chengmei Town, but when my eldest son Jin Yu found Meizhen, it had already turned into a piece of scorched earth, and there was no living person. Jin Yu found the ancient tomb of the Mei family in Meizhen, but the ancient tomb was also It was destroyed, so it is confirmed that the Mei family that our Jin family wants to protect is the Mei family in Lincheng Mei Town."
"After that, we have been sending people around to look for your whereabouts, but we thought it was wrong. We thought that the descendants of the Mei family should be named Mei. In the past three years, we have searched almost all the people surnamed Mei. People, we just haven’t found the person we really want to protect. Not long ago, the second son, Jin Jue, found a person named Mei Hanxing. His identity information was very consistent with the person we were looking for. I came over in person. I also met Mei Hanxing. Unfortunately, after my testing, he was not the person I was looking for, but he also had the blood of the Mei family. Unfortunately, he was not the eldest grandson of the eldest house. From him, I knew The first patriarch, named Mei Fu, has only one daughter and no son, so he has no eldest grandson, but I know that the child of Patriarch Mei Fu's only daughter must be the person I am looking for."
Tang Shi, who had been listening silently, interrupted at this moment, "Why are you so sure?"
"As stated in the Inheritance Law, the position of the head of the Mei family is only handed down from generation to generation to the eldest grandson. Once the head of the Mei family is established, all offshoots of the Mei family will be expelled from the same generation, and they will never be allowed to enter the place where the head is. The lineage of the Patriarch must guard the ancestral grave of the Mei family for generations, and they are not allowed to leave. The lineage of Mei Hanxing should be the side branch of the Mei family that was expelled from Mei Town. Let us go around such a big circle, and the inheritance laws only say that the orthodox blood of the Mei family It is only passed on to the eldest grandson of the head of the house, so we searched for descendants of the Mei family, never expecting that even if they have a foreign surname, as long as they are the eldest son or eldest daughter of the blood of the head of the family, they can inherit the orthodox blood of the Mei family."
Tang Shi listened expressionlessly, "How can you tell if it's the orthodox blood of the Mei family?"
"As stated in the law of inheritance, only descendants of the orthodox blood of the Mei family can inherit the treasures of the Mei family."
"What is the treasure of the Mei family said in the inheritance law?" Tang Shi said.
"That's not true, but it's a way to activate the treasures of the Mei family."
"What method?" Although Tang Shi had already activated it, he still wanted to know what the real activation method was.
"Use the blood of the Mei family to open it, and then use sufficient energy to activate it." Jin Zhuoran made no secret of this.
Uh……
Using the blood of the Mei family to open it, Tang Shi knew this, activated it with sufficient energy, Tang Shi hadn't tried it, he was completely gambling with his life, irrigated with blood, and forced the system out, now that he thinks about it, the system is actually Are you afraid that he will die?Otherwise, it wouldn't be activated directly without Yuan Energy.
Either way, as long as the goal is achieved.
Yan Xu listened with a serious expression. After Jin Zhuoran finished speaking, Yan Xu looked at Jin Jue, "You sent someone to follow Tang Shi because of this?"
After Tang Shi heard that the Jin family was his guardian, he didn't feel anything, but Yan Xu said that Jin Jue sent someone to follow him, which made him feel strange, and he also looked at Jin Jue.
Jin Jue was afraid that because of this incident, Tang Shi would lose his trust in him. Just as he was about to explain, Jin Zhuoran said, "I asked Jin Jue to do this. Let Jin Jue send people to keep an eye on Mei Hanxing and your lord, hoping to find out the real location of the descendants of the Mei family as soon as possible."
Tang Shi took a deep look at Jin Jue, and he already understood what was going on.Since they were suspicious of Mei Hanxing first, Jin Zhuoran was sure that Mei Hanxing knew where the real descendants of the Mei family were, and at that time, he asked Jin Jue to check Mei Hanxing's information, During the two meetings with Han Xing, the Jin family must have suspected that he was a descendant of the Mei family, and now they came here just to confirm.
Tang Shi didn't blame Jin Jue for this matter. After all, Jin Jue just sent someone to follow him, and he didn't do anything to hurt him. It was just that someone secretly made a small move, which still made Tang Shi a little unhappy, especially if he trusted him. people.
"Next time you have something to ask me directly, don't do these unnecessary things." Tang Shi's face was unhappy, and Jin Jue of course noticed.
"Yes, there will be no next time." Jin Jue replied hastily.
After hearing so much from Jin Zhuoran, Tang Shi didn't have any superfluous feelings other than being curious about the Jin family's "inheritance law".Although he claimed to be surnamed Tang to the outside world, only he knew that he had always regarded himself as the Mei family. His grandfather raised him since he was a child, and the Tang family was so ruthless to him. It was only natural that Tang Shi didn't miss the Tang family.
"Even if I'm a descendant of the Mei family, what's the reason you have worked so hard to find me?" Tang Shi didn't think he needed a guardian. In this era, the strong are respected, and everything is based on strength. Tang Shi felt that it was completely unnecessary for the family to be his guardian.
"I don't know when the Jin family's 'inheritance law' was passed down. From generation to generation, they are handed over to the patriarch as a family heirloom for safekeeping, and each old patriarch will verbally explain to the new patriarch: It was opened when the world changed dramatically. My father said the same thing when he handed the family heirloom to me. This has almost become what every patriarch has to say, but no one knows what is called a "great change in the world". It wasn't until the end of the world that we realized that the "great changes in the world" had already begun. According to the law of inheritance, the descendants of the Mei family are the masters that our Jin family must follow. The Jin family must spare no effort to protect the descendants of the Mei family. This is related to the life and death of the entire human race."
Both Tang Shi and Yan Xu were moved in their hearts, "What does this have to do with the survival of the human race?"
"It is written in the Law of Inheritance that after the great changes in the world, the human race will suffer a catastrophe. Only the descendants of the Mei family have the hope of resolving this disaster." All the descendants of the Jin family must abide by it.
Tang Shi and Yan Xu both pondered. After a long while, they looked at each other. Jin Zhuoran's words reminded them of what Asa had said. There would definitely be a war between the human race and the ancient hundreds of races. Disaster" is this?
Tang Shi thought for a while and asked, "Can I have a look at your 'Law of Inheritance'?"
Yan Xu asked him for a reasonable reason, otherwise this matter would not be easily passed.
Jin Jue couldn't explain too much, he only said that when Tang Shi came back, this matter would naturally be clear, so Yan Xu called Jin Jue after receiving the notice from the awakened soldiers who defended the city in the evening, and told him, Tang Shi is back.Only then did Jin Jue rush over with his father and elder brother who had been waiting for several days.
