Chapter 236 Evil Breath
Chapter 236 Evil Breath
Zhang Rishan: "It's no use forcing me."
After a pause, he continued, "And let me tell you the truth, the ancient books and materials left by the Zhang family over the past thousands of years are all in the Zhang Family Ancient Building, and except for the clan leader, other clan members have no right to enter the Zhang Family Ancient Building."
"In other words, I don't know what the secrets you mentioned are, or what the truth of history is!"
Fatty: "Aren't you the biggest in the Zhang family now?"
"Fatty, who told you that I'm the boss of the Zhang family?!"
As Zhang Rishan spoke, he glanced at Zhang Qiling covertly.
From the moment Xu Feng and the others started discussing the mural, Zhang Qiling seemed like a transparent man standing next to them. If you didn't pay attention, no one would notice him.
"Although our Zhang family has declined, there are still many clan members scattered outside, including many elders. It is not my turn to be the head of the family."
After listening to him, Xu Feng remembered the story of the Zhang family overseas in "Southern Archives".
After the Zhang family split, Zhang Qiling was the only one left.
But there are quite a few side branches.
However, those who left the Zhang family basically lived their lives in hiding and did not want to have anything to do with the Zhang family.
When Wu Xie became the Evil Emperor and wanted to destroy the Wang family, he once looked for help from the Zhang family. However, no matter how he looked, except for the Zhang family members overseas who still had faith in the Zhang family and responded, there was no news from the other members of the Zhang family.
Most of the Zhang family members living overseas have the character "Hai" in their generation name.
Zhang Haiyan and Zhang Haiqi appeared in "Southern Archives".
In 1906, the Panhua Reef case occurred and caused a sensation. In order to find out the truth, the Nanyang Maritime Office at that time established the Nanyang Archives, which was specifically responsible for investigating strange events in Nanyang. Zhang Haiyan was one of the first people to enter the Nanyang Archives.
The Southern Archives is an institution established by the Zhang family. Its main function is to investigate strange and bizarre events in various places and then summarize and report them to the Zhang family headquarters.
It’s somewhat similar to the Administration of Divine Objects!
The Panhuahai Reef case is based on the plague of Wudou disease, which was caused by the warlord Mo Yungao.
Mo Yungao was infected with plague in his early years, and it was Zhang Qiling's blood that saved him.
He felt that Zhang Qiling and even the Zhang family behind him were hiding a huge secret, so he created this plague at all costs, trying to make Zhang Qiling show up and explore the secrets of the Zhang family.
Later he found out that the Zhang family possessed the ability to achieve immortality.
So he killed many members of the Zhang family, took out their organs, soaked them in jars of wine, and studied them.
He even obliterated the entire Southern Archives.
Finally, Zhang Haiyan and his godmother Zhang Haiqi were forced to go to Nanhu to seek help from Zhang Qishan.
Zhang Qishan’s generation name is Shan, and Zhang Haiyan’s generation name is Hai.
The Zhang family has a saying: Mountains and seas separate us for a thousand years, and we will never meet again.
What it means is that the mountains and the sea can never meet each other in life.
When the mountains and the sea meet, the Zhang family will perish.
It was indeed during this period that the Zhang family began to decline and perish.
Afterwards, Zhang Qishan went to Beihai and took over Mo Yungao's territory. After losing his territory, Mo Yungao fled into the mountains of western Guangxi, and Zhang Haiqi was poisoned and aged soon after. At Qi Tiezui's suggestion, Zhang Haiqi followed Zhang Haiyan to southern Xinjiang to find the clan leader Zhang Qiling, and the story ended here.
There are also other spin-off stories that tell stories about other members of the Zhang family.
For example, some resident liaison officers.
These people are scattered all over the place, waiting to be summoned when the Zhang family needs them. There are many such Zhang family members, but Zhang Qiling has forgotten how to summon them.
"So you mean you don't know anything now?"
The fat man said impatiently: "What's the point of you? You can't do anything, and you can't provide any information. What else can you do?!"
Zhang Rishan: “….”
"Okay, Fatty, Director Zhang may indeed be in a difficult situation, so let's not force him."
After Xu Feng finished speaking, he glanced at Zhang Rishan, and then asked Lao Hu: "Lao Hu, have you found other murals?"
Holding the fairy wine gourd, Old Hu, who had already splashed the surrounding walls with it, shook his head and said, "No more."
Suddenly everyone sighed slightly.
Now that we have no clues, we have no way of knowing what happened back then.
I am a little confused about what to do next.
What is certain now is that Meng Yi had no good intentions in tempting them to come in, and it is very likely that he was there to investigate the current state of Qin Shi Huang. But the current situation is that Qin Shi Huang is very likely not dead.
If they go in at this time, they will almost be committing suicide.
"Gone? How come it's gone?!"
The fat man pounced on the wall in annoyance, searching for new murals.
Xu Feng also frowned, thinking hard.
In fact, he had something else to say, which was that if Qin Shihuang was not really dead, then the dead dragon outside the Giant Mosquito Cave was most likely his work. He got this guess from Meng Yi's reaction when he saw the dragon's corpse.
Meng Yi's reaction was very strange when he saw the dragon corpse.
And his subsequent request further confirmed this point.
"If that's the case... then if we continue going down, we'll be dead."
Just when Xu Feng was daydreaming.
Sudden.
Zhang Qiling’s sword is unsheathed!
Clang!
There was a crisp sound of the sword being unsheathed.
Xu Feng instinctively looked in the direction of the sound and was shocked to find that Zhang Qiling, who had been leaning against the wall with his arms crossed, suddenly drew his sword and became fully alert.
His hair suddenly stood up.
Because he was absent-minded just now, his reaction was a little slow. Now that he was awakened by Zhang Qiling, his consciousness immediately sensed that something was wrong.
He waved his right hand, and a long bone knife immediately appeared in his hand.
"Old Hu! Fatty!"
he shouted.
Old Hu and Fatty, who had already developed a tacit understanding with Xu Feng, reacted instantly and quickly took out their weapons.
Their reaction immediately aroused the reaction of the Zhang family.
Members of the Zhang family took out their weapons one after another.
Zhang Rishan and Zhang Qiling also looked into the depths of the passage with frowns on their faces.
But the passage was very quiet, without even a trace of movement.
Gradually, members of the Zhang family looked at Xu Feng and Zhang Qiling with doubt, wondering if they were overreacting.
But Lao Hu and Fatty believed it firmly.
But the fat man still came to Xu Feng's side: "Young Master Xu, is there something wrong?"
Xu Feng's face was cold: "I feel a very evil aura."
"Evil aura?"
The fat man was a little confused.
Zhang Qiling suddenly said: "There's someone watching us over there!"
He pointed further into the passage.
Everyone's eyes were focused on the passage.
Just at this time.
A very slight sound suddenly came from deep in the passage.
Everyone's heart skipped a beat.
All eyes looking towards the passage became alert.
Then, the sound became louder and louder, and it also had a special rhythm, giving people the feeling that
It sounded like the uniform footsteps of many soldiers.
These footsteps seemed to have magic, and every step touched everyone's heart.
Gradually.
Everyone's breathing unconsciously became rapid, and some people's faces even looked slightly ugly.
