We followed Ling Ran back to Ling's house, Ling Zhihan should have lost too much blood, coupled with excessive fright, he fainted when he came out of the tomb, but it should be fine, and it is estimated that he can recover after a few days of rest.

Hearing the last news that Ling Ran had already sent Ye Zhiqiu away, if she had to ask questions here again, she didn't know how to reply to her.

The happiest thing is, of course, Tian Ji, who carries a large bag full of gold and silver jewelry brought out of Lu Qiao's tomb.

"The sky is open, and finally I didn't run in vain, and it was another life, but I earned it back." Until he returned to Lingjiatian, he was reluctant to put down the bag in his hand, and he was free from the greedy ghost for a day.

But fortunately, Tian Ji was greedy for money, and he actually brought out such a heavy pine bottle, which can finally be used to make a difference, but the most valuable thing in Lu Qiao's tomb is not these gold, silver, jewelry and porcelain.

It's the documents in the dark room, as well as the inscription of Lu Qiao's life and the portrait, if Ye Zhiqiu is here this time, it is estimated that she would rather die in it than be damaged in the slightest, without these, it is just an ordinary ancient tomb.

We stayed at Ling's house for three days, Ling Ran sent someone to send the pine bottle back to Chengdu first, it can be seen that he is more eager than us to have an explanation for Hua Xishuang, three days later we said goodbye, Ling Ran set up a banquet in the drunken moon to see us off.

This time Ling Ran was quite polite, and it wasn't like last time when he was tense and didn't eat a good meal.

"Little girl, thank you for not giving up, the life-saving grace of the Ling family is in mind, this favor is what I Ling Ran owes you, when will it be repaid, just ask." Ling Ran was still holding a flower carving, and he got up and said everything from his heart.

"You're serious, everyone should be in the same boat, and we should support each other." We got up with the wine. "Why don't you see Ling Zhihan?"

"The doctor came to see it, and said that it was no big deal, but she was very curious, she was bitten twice by Bai Hua Qibu, and it was a miracle that she survived, it is estimated that she was frightened, and she has been weak since she was a child, so I am afraid that she will have to recuperate for a few more days." Ling Ran's expression was also a little puzzled when he said this. "I also want to ask about this, Baihua Seven Steps is highly poisonous, what methods do you use to help her detoxify?"

"He uses ......"

"When I found out, I helped her bleed and forced the snake venom out." I hurriedly interrupted Tian Ji, for fear that he would say something he shouldn't have said again.

Ling Ran didn't ask in detail, he served the wine first as a respect, these days he was trapped in the tomb, he was already hungry and not polite to Ling Ran, and the wind swept away a table of wine and food.

Full of wine and food, Ling Ran personally sent us back to the room to rest, and after Ling Ran left, the palace lord pushed open the window and looked into the distance for a long time, and suddenly asked thoughtfully.

"You really don't plan to check why the Ling family has a tattoo of a feathered dragon?"

"Ling Ran didn't mention it, how can we mention it, don't look at Ling Ran's boldness, when he saw the necklace on my body, he didn't mention a word, just by virtue of this, this person is not shallow." I shook my head and replied cautiously. "Even if the Ling family knows about the Nine Dragons Boat of the Moon Palace, with Ling Ran's caution, with such a big matter, he will naturally not set himself on fire, this great Ling family has stood tall for hundreds of years, there must be a way to survive, even if I check it, I can't find anything."

"This time is not right, you said that the first time you saw the feather dragon pattern was in the jade box, it was related to Ji Qu, it was the Warring States period, and then we saw the feather dragon in Kunlun Jinque, and the underground altar of Aoki River......" Tian Ji scratched his head with a puzzled face. From the Yellow Emperor to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the Feather Dragon Diagram has been appearing, which means that the Nine Dragons Boat of the Moon Palace has also appeared, and the time span in the middle is so large, what is the reason, and what does it have to do with the Ling family? ”

"I don't think about the Nine Dragons Boat in the Moon Palace, the portraits in Lu Qiao's tomb, those documents and inscriptions, these little-known secrets, do you find something strange." I rubbed my forehead and said worriedly. "I never believe in coincidence, let alone see a portrait that looks exactly like me in a tomb, and it was hundreds of years ago, Hua Xishuang asked us to cooperate with the Ling family to find Lu Qiao's tomb this time, saying that it was looking for a pine bottle, I am afraid that the drunkard does not mean to ...... wine."

"This woman has nothing to do with us, what did she ask us to go to Lu Qiao's tomb for, just so that you can see the portrait and know Lu Qiao's secret?" Tian Ji looked at me blankly. "There's got to be a reason for everything, and what was her purpose in doing this?"

"Ling Ran said that Ling Zhihan would have to recuperate for a few days before he could get out of bed......" The palace lord standing by the window was surprised. I think Ling Zhihan should be almost fine. ”

"Have you listened to us, what happened here in Lu Qiao's tomb, how did it get to Ling Zhihan." I asked.

The moonlight shone on the angular and cold face of the palace lord, and the corners of his thin and upturned mouth showed an indescribable smile, and he nodded out the window for us to see.

Tian Ji and I walked to the window, under the moonlight, I saw Ling Zhihan walking with a cane, walking to the depths of the path covered by greenery, it was quiet in the dead of night, she should rest in the room, and she went out late at night before her leg injury was healed, it seems that it should not be a leisurely walk out to relax.

"I'll just say that there are a lot of secrets of the Ling family, you can see them anywhere, Ling Zhihan's wound hasn't healed yet, and she limped away in such a hurry, she should be going to see someone." The palace lord glanced back at me. "I'm not curious, what about you......"

I knew that the palace lord was provoking my interest, but the trouble was that I was a very curious person: "Let's go, follow and see." ”

Fortunately, we are familiar with the trail that Ling Zhihan walked, we walked through it once before, and I quickly saw Ling Zhihan who was moving slowly in front of me, and gradually found that the place where Ling Zhihan went was not unfamiliar, not far away was the Ling family ancestral hall, and there were lights inside.

Ling Zhihan walked in, we quietly stood at the door, and saw Ling Ran standing in front of the ancestral hall from the gap, he had already abolished his clan and was no longer qualified to kneel down to worship the ancestors, Ling Zhihan knelt on the futon respectfully, Ling Ran handed her the lit incense, and Ling Zhihan bowed to the shrine with incense.

"The ancestors and the ancestors are above, Ling Nu Zhihan, abide by the ancestral system of the Ling family, take over as the suzerain of the Ling family, and will fulfill her duties and make every effort to govern the country, take it as her own responsibility to support the ancestral industry to glorify the Ling family, and swear to protect the safety of the Ling family."

I can see in my heart that Ling Ran has abolished his clan and can no longer be in charge of the Gusu Ling family, this is to pass on the position of sect master to Ling Zhihan, this should be a major event of the Ling family, how can a famous family like the Ling family also have a beautiful handover, it seems that Ling Ran is planning to keep it secret.

We saw Ling Ran help Ling Zhihan up from the futon, put a bracelet on her hand, sighed and said earnestly: "This is heavy, I originally wanted to bear it on one shoulder, but after all, I have to violate the ancestral teachings, and I will take the blame, from now on you will be the sect master of the Ling family, and everything must be the overall situation of the Ling family." ”

"Dad, what we should have done has been done, do you think we will keep our word over there?" Ling Zhihan asked worriedly.

"Obey the destiny of heaven, there is only so much we can do." Ling Ran shook his head weakly and turned to look at Ling Zhihan. "How's your leg injury?"

"It's not a big deal, fortunately, it didn't hurt the bones, and it should be fine to recuperate for a while."

"You and they are here to explore Lu Qiao's tomb, what can you detect along the way?"

"No, they don't seem to know."

I glanced at each other with Gong Jue and Tian Ji, this father and daughter are talking about us now, it seems that Ling Ran has other explanations for Ling Zhihan besides looking at feng shui.

"The necklace Gu Chaoge is wearing should have belonged to the ancestors of the Ling family, Hua Xishuang asked us to find someone sent to help find a pine bottle, I originally thought it was a money transaction, until I saw the necklace." Ling Ran put his hands behind his back and said in a low voice. "This is too strange, I never expected that the person sent by Hua Xishuang was actually wearing a necklace related to the Ling family."

I frowned and looked at Gongjue and Tian Ji silently, how could this chain be related to the ancestors of the Ling family?

"Yes, the last time you came back to tell me, I was still shocked, I was injured in my leg in Lu Qiao's tomb, and I also saw his necklace when he undressed to help me stop the bleeding" Ling Zhihan's voice was full of doubt. "It's really exactly the same as the necklace worn by Ling Xuan, the first ancestor of the Ling family."

Ling Zhihan said as he took out a portrait from the shrine, and when it was unfolded, it was a solemn and dignified woman, and in the light, I could see at a glance that the necklace that the woman was wearing was really the same as mine.

"This is the first ancestor of the Ling family, this portrait has been inherited in the Ling family for hundreds of years, at that time, I recognized Gu Chaoge's necklace at a glance in Yinxiang Zuiyue Building, I was shocked at that time, I came to the ancestral hall to check the portrait of the ancestor, and repeatedly checked that it was exactly the same." Ling Ran looked at the portrait with an anxious expression and said. "I sent someone to check the details of Gu Chaoge, he was adopted by Ye Jiuqing since he was a child, but I don't know who his parents are, I really can't figure out how he can have the necklace of our Ling family ancestor."

"Dad, according to the secret literature of the Ling family, there is a feather dragon pattern in that necklace, I have always wanted to ask you, what does this feather dragon mean?" Ling Zhihan asked Ling Ran very seriously. "Why do you have this tattoo on me?"

"I don't know." Ling Ran replied very simply. "The Ling family has passed down the secret art of feng shui for generations, but it has never mentioned anything related to the feather dragon, but the most important one of the Ling family's ancestral teachings is that the suzerain who wants to be in charge of the Ling clan for generations must inherit this pattern, and the Ling family also has a secret passed down from mouth to heart, which is said to be related to a treasure that can rule the world, and will only be passed on to the next generation before the previous generation of sect masters die."

"Then you are also the sect master, why don't you know?" Ling Zhihan asked urgently.

"Your grandfather was in a hurry when he passed on the position of sect master to me, he didn't even have time to tell me this secret, and now only your grandfather knows this secret."

After listening to the conversation between Ling Ran and Ling Zhihan, we opened our mouths blankly, they didn't even know about the Nine Dragons Boat in the Moon Palace, and the feather dragon pattern was actually passed down from generation to generation by the ancestors of the Ling family, and now even I have no clue, how could I be wearing the necklace of the ancestors of the Ling family.

This necklace was given to me by my father and asked me to keep it properly, how could a coffin bearer in the mountains have anything to do with the Gusu Ling family, and what is the secret of the Ling family.

The feather dragon is the symbol of the Nine Dragons Boat of the Moon Palace, could it be that the secret of the Ling family that has been passed down from generation to generation is related to the Nine Dragons Boat of the Moon Palace.
