Zhou Xun ran out of the house and walked around the big house, picking some flowers and leaves from time to time, and playing with them. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Usually he was always rummaging around the house, and the servants were not surprised, but just smiled and gave way to him.

The nine-year-old boy has already entered school and has learned a lot of books, and the child is actually just talking good, but he has been recommended to take the children's exam.

The number of children in Great Xia is more than one million, and all of them are children.

There are three children's examinations, the county examination, the government examination and the hospital examination, and the three examinations are the students, that is, the real sense of the show.

After passing the children's exam, it is a student, also known as Xiucai, at this time to enter the college to study, there are three kinds of colleges: county school, government school, and state school.

Those who have passed the monthly examination, annual examination, and many other examinations in the college, and have no stain on their character, will get the opportunity to participate in the township examination.

Within the college, in fact, it has gone through a series of assessment and screening, and the usual attendance and performance are counted in the final comprehensive results.

Zhou Xun didn't even participate in the county exam now, and he couldn't talk about thinking about this.

He peeked into the backyard and looked back, and no one noticed him.

"There's no one in the backyard, so it's time to go in and have a look. Usually my father refuses to let me enter the ancestral hall. I'm going to check it out this time. ”

Cotton shoes with mille-feuille soles, there was not much sound when stepping on the gravel road, and after trotting all the way, Zhou Xun slipped into the backyard.

The backyard is not inhabited, there will usually be someone here to clean, take care of, place the ancestral god seat, neat and tidy, not much, just seven or eight, the Zhou family these generations are not prosperous, are all in a single line, so there are very few tablets of the god worshipped.

In fact, families with origins are all worshiped from the founding ancestors. The reason why the Zhou family is dedicated to the last three generations and does not have a direct ancestor is because during the war in the previous dynasty, the family was scattered, and the current Yuchuzhuang Zhou family is a lineage, and it has been separated from it since then.

Zhou Xun walked in the ancestral hall with a familiar car, this place is not big, it is a secluded courtyard, usually when the ancestors are sacrificed during the New Year's festival, Zhou Xun has followed in to see.

First of all, he gave up the ancestral tablet, Zhou Xun probably didn't dare to be presumptuous here, his grandparents, grandparents, and even ancestors are here, and the wooden tablets are written with famous names, most of them are names and surnames, which are very shabby.

But this is also a helpless thing, it has only been sixty years since the founding of Great Xia, and there are still occasional turmoil in the place, not to mention the ancestors, how can there be spare money to pay attention to this, it is just a simple wooden card to deal with things.

Zhou Xun walked around the ancestral hall for a while, nothing new.

"It's exactly the same as the last time I came・・・・・・

The ground is also very clean, and there is a special person responsible for cleaning and cleaning this area every day, so there will be no "surprises" at all.

"Doesn't it mean that there will be treasures in the ancestral hall! Brother Ning is a big liar, look back at me to fix him! ”

Zhou Xun waved his little fist hatefully.

Brother Ning is his classmate in the private school, and he is also a little close to his family, surnamed Ning Rui, is his cousin, and his mother is of the same clan, and he usually has some contacts, all of them are studying in the enlightenment private school of an old master near here.

This time, Zhou Xun ran over to rummage through the ancestral hall, but after listening to Brother Ning'er's "bewitchment", he felt that his family must be hiding some big secret, who knows what it looks like this place is clean.

"There's no reason, I've searched all over the house, and I think there's nothing missing・・・・・・"

"Dad went to the Dragon Palace back then, so he had to bring something back, where was he hiding?"

Zhou Xun believes that there is something hidden in his house, and his father's story has been heard since he was a child.

The Dragon King of Qinghe set up a banquet to entertain the talented people in the world, and his father was one of the more than 700 people.

Although Dad has always claimed to be at the end of the seat, he just went to make up the number, and most of the others thought it was like this - the Dragon King of Qinghe once posted, and almost invited a little famous literati over, at that time Zhou Gui was just a student, and fortunately a few poems were heard by the people of the Dragon Palace, so he simply added it with a stroke of the pen, which is also very probable, and he is not alone.

Although this is the case according to common sense, Zhou Xun always feels that his father has something to hide.

"Daddy, didn't he really bring back the dragon girl, did he? It's been gone all these years・・・・・・ so could it be that he was kept in the well? ”

Zhou Xun suddenly thought of one thing, that is, there seems to be a well here in the ancestral hall, and no one usually draws water here.

Zhou Xun couldn't help but be a little suspicious.

"Daddy is really sorry for Mom? Can't you? But no matter how you look at this well, it's a bit redundant? ”

One well is enough for ordinary people, but this house covers an area of more than ten acres, which is a great mansion in this small place, and naturally there are spare, plus this, it is three wells.

"The other two wells are useful, but there are no ones here, and they are still digging wells in such a remote place・・・・・・"

The more he thought about it, the more suspicious he felt, Zhou Xun slowly moved to the edge of the well, picked up the edge of the masonry well, and looked down.

It's pitch black, nothing.

Bend down, pick up a pebble nearby, and throw it in.

I heard the slightest sound, as if it was falling on the mud floor, and I didn't hear the sound of water.

"Dry wells?"

Zhou Xun was really surprised this time!

What kind of boundary is this?

Yuchuzhuang, Jiangnan, near Qinghe! The climate is humid and rainfall!

How can there be a dry well here?

During the rainy season, the well water rises and is less than a foot above the ground!

"It seems that Daddy didn't bring back the dragon girl・・・・・・"

Zhou Xun was a little disappointed.

Naturally, the dry well can't live in a dragon, even if it's just a dragon girl.

Dragons can be big and small, can stir up wind and rain, and where they are, there must be water.

Even if there were none, gradually there will be, and lakes and rivers will naturally form.

In other words, without water, nature would not be the dwelling of dragons.

The dry well doesn't seem to be too deep, at least you can hear the echo when you drop the pebbles.

Zhou Xun ran back to the ancestral hall, found the fire fold, skillfully wiped it, and lit the flame.

Then he found a lantern in the nearby storeroom and lit it.

"I want to see why there is no water in this well?"

A strong desire to explore encouraged him.

"Maybe Daddy really brought something good out of the Dragon Palace, and hid it in this well."

In fact, there is a soft ladder on the wall of the well, and each section is tightly fastened to the nails on the wall of the well, and you can easily go down along this.

Zhou Xun didn't see this soft ladder, maybe he didn't pay attention?

"It's strange, there was no such soft ladder just now, why did you leave this short time, and there was an extra soft ladder?"

"Maybe it's a trick Daddy used to hide things?"

Zhou Xun was very excited, and when the nine-year-old child discovered the secret of adults, he felt a sense of pride.
