Chapter 229 Looking for Heavenly Palace
"I'll take you in."
Just as Zhang Ruifeng was about to open the door, Ye Bai stopped him.
"No need, it's the same if we meet outside. Even if we go in, I won't have anything to talk to him."
Zhang Ruifeng thought about it and agreed. This child is withdrawn and doesn't like to talk.
"Do you know his life experience?"
Ye Bai shook his head. He only knew that his little brother had no father or mother when he was born, but he didn't know the specific details.
Zhang Ruifeng narrated the life experience of his younger brother Zhang Qiling.
During the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, on a sunny November day, my younger brother was born in Nepal. His mother was a Baima of the Kangbalo tribe, and his father was a pure-blood member of the Zhang family.
Before the little brother's mother and his father fell in love, they were determined to be sacrifices for the King of Hell to ride on the corpse. After giving birth to the little brother, they were dragged to be sacrificed and buried in the Zanghai Flower Field.
The younger brother’s adoptive father returned from Nepal and took the infant boy back to the Zhang family.
However, the Zhang family discovered that their younger brother had pure Kirin blood, and the blood concentration was extremely high.
You must know that the patriarch of the Zhang family has a condition for being invisible, which is that the concentration of Qilin bloodline needs to reach a certain standard, and my brother obviously meets this standard.
So the younger brother was appointed by the Zhang family as the next patriarch of the Zhang family and was strictly trained by the Zhang family.
Later, the little brother was lost outside, and Zhang Tiantao and others went out to bring him back.
......
After Zhang Ruifeng finished speaking, Ye Bai smiled. Most of what Zhang Ruifeng said was consistent with what he remembered, but Zhang Ruifeng missed the Holy Infant incident.
It seems that the Holy Infant incident involved top secrets of the Zhang family, so Zhang Ruifeng did not reveal it.
Ye Bai didn't remember the specific Holy Infant incident very clearly. He only knew that the Zhang family followed the instructions of their ancestors and opened a dragon-patterned box left by King Zhou Mu. The box had a set of numbers on it and needed to be opened at a specific time.
According to what the ancestors said, the jade figurine in this box is an immortal baby, but inside is a dead baby.
At this time, cracks had appeared in the internal cohesion of the Zhang family. The Zhang family needed an example of "perfect immortality" to give them hope and stabilize their faith, so the senior leaders of the Zhang family secretly replaced their younger brother Zhang Qiling with a baby in the jade figurine, shaping him into a
God of the Zhang family.
Later, for some unknown reason, the younger brother's identity was revealed, and the Zhang family's faith was shattered, like a rootless Ping. This was also the key point of the Zhang family's disintegration.
However, Ye Bai still has some doubts. Wasn't it said that the previous generation Zhang Qiling was Zhang Ruitong?
According to the calculation of time, when the Zhang family got their little brother back, Zhang Ruitong was still the patriarch of the Zhang family. Why did the patriarch become the little brother by default at that time?
Zhang Ruifeng explained: "This involves the mystery of the disappearance of the previous generation of patriarchs. I hope you can keep this secret. The patriarch of the Zhang family has actually been missing for a long time. Zhang Ruitong was one of the elders. Although he was called Zhang Qiling, he was only the acting patriarch. You
From the fact that he has two names, we know that the real patriarch only knows one name, and that is Zhang Qiling!"
So that's it, Ye Bai nodded.
He had heard from Zhang Rishankou before that the head of the Zhang family had inherited tokens and secrets that the Zhang family had guarded for generations.
If the previous generation of patriarch suddenly disappeared, then these two things must be disconnected.
Perhaps Zhang Ruifeng's most urgent wish now is to train his younger brother to become a patriarch and to retrieve the patriarch's inheritance token.
Zhang Ruifeng took Ye Bai out of the underground fortress, and it was already dark.
Zhang Qishan disappeared in the house, and Zhang Ruifeng said he had his own arrangements for him.
Ye Bai found a letter left by Zhang Qishan: "Don't read it, I will return to Changsha in three days."
The handwriting is indeed Zhang Qishan's, and there is also a hidden code left by Zhang Qishan.
Here, Zhang Ruifeng spoke again: "Tomorrow morning, I will have someone take you out of Changbai Mountain. You have a good rest at night and don't run around again."
It seems that Zhang Ruifeng discovered him sneaking out that night.
Ye Bai didn't expect that he would leave after staying in the Zhang family's ancient house for two days. He still had many questions in his mind.
For example, why was my father able to conceive a pure-blooded brother with the Kangbalo tribe? You must know that even the pure-blooded Zhang Ruitong only gave birth to Zhang Qishan with Qiongqi tattoos after combining with a foreign tribe.<
/p>
Unless the Kangbalo people are also members of the Zhang family.
But there are only twelve main bloodlines of the Zhang family. Could the Kangbalo tribe be one of them?
Also, what’s the matter with the King of Hell riding a corpse, and why do humans need to be sacrificed?
The Zhang family has too many secrets, and Zhang Ruifeng is like a sieve, only revealing a little to Ye Bai at a time, leaving Ye Bai with no temper.
After resting for a night, Ye Bai was taken out of the Zhang family's ancient house the next morning.
The person leading the way was the second-line Zhang family junior who had delivered his meal yesterday morning. Although he could talk to Ye, he had a strong sense of confidentiality and would never reveal too much.
In two days, Ye Bai left Changbai Mountain and returned to Changchun.
In the hotel, Ye Bai also received a letter from Chen Yulou, saying that they had found the possible location of the palace.
It is in the Kunlun Mountains, the ancestor of mountains.
Yes, it’s another snow mountain.
Ye Bai was helpless. He had just come down from Changbai Mountain and now he had to climb Kunlun Mountain. He didn't know whether the information Chen Yulou found was accurate.
After a brief tidying up, Ye Bai bought a train ticket back to Changsha, hoping that if Chen Yulou and the others had not set off at this time, he could still meet up with the main force.
Three days later, Ye Bai rushed back to Changsha.
In Ye Mansion, Honggu, the old foreigner Hua Lingdu, and two little guys Chen Tianyou and Ling'er were there, and it was very lively.
"If you come back one day late, we will set off."
Chen Yulou was also very happy that Ye Bai could come back so quickly. With Ye Bai here, his confidence in this business has increased a lot.
However, after learning the lesson from King Xian's Tomb, Chen Yulou also put the insects he raised in a box made of meteorites and prepared to take them to Kunlun Mountain together.
I just don’t know if these zerg can withstand freezing.
That night everyone had a joyful and sumptuous banquet, which served as a farewell to Partridge Whistle Ye Bai and others.
However, upon learning that Ye Bai had returned from the north, Zhang Qishan's soldiers could not sit still and came to inquire about Zhang Qishan's whereabouts.
Seeing that this soldier was about the same size and height as Zhang Qishan, Ye Bai knew that this soldier must have worn Zhang Qishan's human skin mask and replaced Zhang Qishan in Zhang's mansion.
Being considered a loyal person, Ye Bai handed Zhang Qishan the letter left by him and sent him back.
"Thank you, Third Master!"
......
The next morning, Ye Bai and his party of six took the train heading north.
Ye Bai, Chen Yulou, Partridge Xian, Hua Ling, Lao Yangren, and Qi Xiaohei.
As for why they went north, it was because they wanted to meet up with Jin Abacus.
The last time Ye Bai and the others went to present the king's tomb, although Jin Abacus rushed back to Changsha, he happened to miss Ye Bai.
Later, Jin Abacus also became smart. Every time he visited a place, he would write a letter and send it back to Changsha to let Ye Bai know his whereabouts so that he would not be unable to find anyone at the critical moment.
