Chapter 259: Mysterious Brocade Box

The light in the living room on the third floor is very bright, and the luxurious lamp decorations are all bright, almost illuminating the living room as if it were daylight. Meng Que lay on the wall above the window on the third floor like a gecko, quietly poking down half of his head, his sparkling eyes shining in the light.

In the living room, there were no more than one from the seven Murong clans, and they were gathered around a table in a semicircle. And the "third brother" who just spoke, Meng Que had already seen his face clearly, and saw that this person was about forty years old, with a shaved head, and a very large and black hemorrhoid on his chin, and his appearance was somewhat similar to that of Mao Zedong, the founding chairman of the country.

It seems that everyone in their Murong family has a natural inheritance of hemorrhoids on the face, just like Murong Jue, who escaped from the Qian family's dungeon with Meng Que, he has a large black hemorrhoid under his left eye.

In addition to the third brother, Meng Que also noticed the person who was the first to speak in the living room and instigated the third brother to "resist", that person was slightly younger than the third brother, estimated to be about thirty-seven or eighteen years old, relatively short, with a sharp monkey gills, a sharp mustache on the lower jaw, and a big black hemorrhoid on the side of his nose. He stood on the left side of the third brother, and the person on the right side of the third brother was between him and him, thinking that these three people should be the masters of the three "mountain character generations" of the Murong family that his grandfather said.

The other four are all young people, almost the same age as Meng Que, the youngest is about sixteen years old, and the oldest is no more than 19 years old.

At this moment, their attention was completely focused on a black and shiny sandalwood brocade box in the third brother's hand, and no one noticed that two shining eyes were quietly peeping at the top of the window outside the living room. In fact, it's right to think about it, they rely on the presence of three masters of the "Mountain Character Generation", and they believe that this is the territory of their Murong family, where can they care about anything else?

Watching the third brother put the brocade box on the table, he was not in a hurry to open the brocade box at first, but looked at it quietly, and it seemed that his determination was still not very firm.

Any big family has specific family rules, and some of them are very strict. For the third brother, who has lived under the control of the clan rules since he was a child, if he wants to break the clan rules that have bound him for many years, he will inevitably have a trace of overwhelm and a trace of worry. Once people are content with the status quo and stick to the rules, it is difficult to make up their minds to overturn everything they have, this is nature, there are not many people who can change, and there are not many people who want to change......

Seeing the third brother's hesitation, the man with the sharp mouth and monkey cheeks continued to instigate: "Third brother, what else are you inking?" If you have decided to see what you want, why hesitate? There is a way that you should constantly be affected by the chaos, as a manly husband, you should have the decisive decision-making power of the third brother. ”

Although the man with the sharp mouth and monkey cheeks spoke sonorously and looked quite reasonable, he just blindly instigated the third brother, but he didn't do it himself. Except for him, everyone else looked at the brocade box and the third brother's reaction, and they didn't make any remarks.

The third brother groaned for a while, looked at the man with the sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, and asked in a deep voice: "Fourth, do you really think that the third brother and I have the ability to lead the entire Murong family?" ”

When the sharp-beaked monkey-cheeked man heard this, he replied without thinking: "Of course, the third brother's leadership ability, we have obvious to all, and no one can deny that compared to Murong Shanzheng, the eldest son who grew up in Chicago for many years, we want the third brother to be the leader." ”

Saying this, the sharp-beaked monkey-cheeked man also glanced at the other five people, and those individuals were also encouraged by him to nod their heads, and said in unison: "That's right, Murong Shan is just a stranger to us, and when I think about listening to him in the future, I feel more than he is happy......

As the elder among them, the third brother certainly had more worries than anyone else. He pondered again and said, "Although I also want to be the leader of the Murong family, ...... It's not like I want to do it. Now all the affairs of the family are decided by the elders, and they are already optimistic about Murong Shanzheng, do you think I still have a chance to turn this situation around? Speaking of this, he smiled bitterly and said, "Besides, even if you want to resist, now is not the time." And no one knows what this brocade box contains, in case it is just an ordinary object, we may cause unnecessary trouble after we open it, have you thought about all this? ”

The sharp-beaked monkey cheek who was called "the fourth" by the third brother seemed to have more curiosity than Meng Que, and the third brother's concerns were all floating clouds to him. Anyway, he had already made a small abacus, and this time he had to instigate the third brother to open the brocade box no matter what, and even if the family elders knew about it, he would be able to make a "push" decision to push the responsibility cleanly.

Of course, the best development trend is that the third brother and Murong Shan are fighting and both lose, and when the time comes, he will take advantage of the fisherman and eradicate both of them. At that time, as the fourth elder, he will become the only elder, and the second child will not need to be calculated if he died early, and now as long as the eldest Murong Shanzheng and the third Murong Shantai are hanged, then who is not himself who is the Murong Shan'an as the candidate for the leadership of the Murong family?

immediately encouraged the third brother and said: "Third brother, you can't think like that, since you have decided to resist, it will be the same at any time, and it is better to choose late than early." You must know that the first strike is strong, and the second strike suffers. This brocade box has been passed down from generation to generation in our family, would you think that it contains ordinary objects? Hehe...... Besides, if Murong Shan wants to fight us, he has no chance of winning at all. He lives in Chicago, USA all the year round, and he is not familiar with our local family at all. Also, I said that his son Murong Ziye recently returned to SH City, if he dares to play any tricks, we will ...... his son" Speaking of this, his hand made a horizontal gesture, signaling to kill Murong Ziye.

A layer of cold sweat oozed from the third brother's back, and when the fourth brother said this, his previous worries suddenly disappeared. In the heart of infinite desire, there seems to be a voice of longing: "No poison no husband, yes, this is indeed a good way." Licking his lips thoughtfully, he slapped his palm on the table, and made up his mind: "Ge Laozi, let it go, open it, if he Murong Shan wants to compete with me for the position of candidate, I will kill his son Murong Ziye first." ”

Hearing this, Meng Que smiled bitterly in his heart and said, "It turns out that Murong Ziye, who came back from the United States, is the son of the eldest of the Murong family, which is really a coincidence. ”

Murong was playing a car before midnight and crashed through the coastal guardrail and fell into the sea, and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead at this time. If it is raw, it is estimated that these third brothers still have some bargaining chips; And if they are dead, then their plans will be in vain.

After the third brother made up his mind, he grabbed the black sandalwood brocade box and slammed it, and the antique box was immediately split into two halves. At the same time that the box split in half, a piece of yellowish and black paper fell from it and fell on the table. In addition, there is a turquoise emerald token lying quietly in the open box.

Meng Que didn't know what those two things were, but the seven people in the living room were shocked when they saw those two things, and their faces changed drastically, and they were dumbfounded.

After being silent for a long time, the old Quartet with the sharp-beaked monkey cheeks snorted fiercely and said, "The head of the family token? The elders actually started to hand over the family head token to Murong Shanzheng so early, and those old immortals were really blind. ”

Some others also shook their heads and sighed: "This is too unruly, according to the clan rules, only when someone inherits the position of the head of the family, can they get the token of the head of the family." At present, he Murong Shanzheng has not succeeded to the throne, why does he possess the main token of this family? If the elders break the rules, why should we follow them? ”

The third brother was furious when he heard this, took out the emerald green token from the box, held it tightly in the palm of his hand, and said coldly: "This token should belong to me, right!" ”

After the look in the eyes of the sharp-beaked monkey changed for a while, his eyes suddenly shifted to the yellow and black piece of paper on the table, and he picked it up and said, "What is this?" Could it be the treasure map that has been passed down from generation to generation by the legendary four families? ”

Hearing what he said, the third brother put away the emerald green family head token, and snatched the shredded paper from the fourth child's hand, spread it out on the table, glanced at it carefully, and said: "That's right, this is indeed a treasure map, Ge Laozi, the elders actually handed this over to Murong Shanzheng, it really annoyed me!" ”

As soon as the treasure map appeared, the eyes of the seven people present widened to discover the location of the treasure. It is said that there is a great secret and a rare treasure cave hidden in this treasure map, and the reason why the four major families were able to turn over was because they accidentally discovered the cave. Later, after they left, the four of them worked together to draw a treasure map based on their own memories, which was divided into four parts and later collected by the major families. It's a pity that the treasure map in the black brocade box is only a corner of the huge drawing, and no matter what angle you look at, it is difficult to see where and where the drawing is depicted.

Because it was the first time they had seen this legendary treasure map, the seven of them didn't care if they could see the clues, and they widened their eyes one by one to search for clues from every word and every mountain and river line on the drawings.

Meng Que was thrilled to see it, saying that he had heard of the treasure map a long time ago. It's a pity that I've only heard of it for a long time, but now I see it, but it's in the hands of others. This is only five or six meters apart, how can it not make people's hearts itch when they are just looking at each other like this?

There are many versions of the legend in the legendary treasure map, but regardless of which one of them, it deliberately points out two points. One is that there is a great secret in the treasure; The second is that the origin of the four major families comes from this treasure.

At the beginning, I heard my grandfather say that the treasure land was like the Peach Blossom Land depicted in Tao Yuanming's "The Story of the Peach Blossom Spring", the ancestors of the four major families could go to it for the first time, but they couldn't find it for the second time. Later, everyone cooperated to draw a full map of the way to the road from memory, but because of their own selfishness, they have not gone a second time, and this time it has been thousands of years, and no one has ever found the treasure address of the treasure map.

All this has always been a mystery, and it is also a mystery that makes people yearn for and look forward to it.

Just as he was peeping, suddenly a cold leaf flew past Meng Que's ear. Meng Que felt something wrong, and quickly turned his head in the direction where the leaves were flying. But I saw a pair of familiar reading glasses slowly appearing in the dark, but who was that person not grandfather Meng Youcai?

Before Meng Que could speak, Grandpa suddenly pointed to the living room on the third floor and made a "grab" gesture, the meaning of which was obvious and decisive, and there was no need to explain more.

Meng Que took a breath of shock and shook his head, almost unable to believe his grandfather's crazy decision............

"Do it?"
