Chapter Ninety-One: The Bloodline

When I saw Xiao Lianshan, he was sitting in the study and reading a book with Gu Anqi, seeing us go in, Xiao Lianshan closed the book and put it on the desk, I glanced at the ancient book that I had accidentally read when I was a child, Gu Liancheng sat on crutches without saying a word, and his gaze never left my eyes.

Gu Anqi walked quickly in front of me, still looking at me lovingly, tremblingly stretched out her hand to caress my face, and her gaze also fell on my eyes.

"What your dad had been fearing for a long time has finally happened."

"Mom, Rong Yan is to blame, don't hurt me because of me, you and Dad have been scared of me all these years, but Rong Yan didn't understand you."

I bowed my head and said sincerely apologetic.

"Silly child, how can there be parents in the world who don't love their children, we just ask you to be safe, your father is stubborn, but he also wants you to live a simple life."

Gu Anqi smiled lovingly and looked at Gu Liancheng.

"It's not me and your dad who are most worried about you, it's your grandfather, he has been strict with you all these years for your good, your grandfather is a person from the past, he knows that the destiny of heaven is difficult to disobey, but for you I still want to change your life against the sky."

“……”

I looked at Gu Liancheng in a daze, the old man who had never smiled at me in my memory, as if in his eyes I was wrong in whatever I did.

"Grandpa...... I...... I was wrong, I kept misunderstanding you......"

"You're not wrong, it's me who lost!"

Gu Liancheng sighed heavily, it was the first time I heard him finish talking to me in such a kind tone, but now his face was full of helplessness, Gu Liancheng slowly shook his head.

"You did everything possible to prevent you from opening your yin and yang eyes, thinking that you could hide from the sky and let you live this life ordinary, but I didn't know that I, Gu Liancheng, looked up to myself too much, and thought that I could fight with the sky...... Ay. ”

"Grandpa, it's not a bad thing that my brother can open yin and yang eyes, you don't know what kind of temperament my brother has, and he won't do evil, what can you do if you open yin and yang eyes."

Gu Xiaoxiao sat next to Gu Liancheng, held his hand and said obediently.

"Silly boy, Rong Yan's yin and yang eyes are opened, and afterwards everything is not something he can control, many things are involuntarily, of course I believe in his character."

Gu Liancheng looked up at me, with helpless kindness and worry in his eyes.

"But I believe that destiny is hard to deceive!"

"Grandpa, don't worry about me, it was Rong Yan who insisted on living up to your expectations of me before, and I have promised my father that I will go back with you when this case is over."

I lowered my head and said sincerely.

"In the future, Rong Yan will never ask again."

"You came today just to ask me about Genghis Khan's mausoleum."

Xiao Lianshan's gaze fell on the ancient book on the desk.

"Are you really going to find out?"

"Dad, Qiu Chuji is a master of Taoism, Genghis Khan's generation of Tianjiao can order him to build the emperor's mausoleum, it can be seen that Genghis Khan's description of it, before the small view of the emperor's mausoleum around the feng shui fierce, we all think that Hongxuzi deliberately calculated Genghis Khan, but you were the negation at that time."

I walked up to Xiao Lianshan and asked seriously.

"And the various furnishings in the imperial mausoleum that we opened are incredible, I know...... You've been hiding things from us, and I just want to know the ins and outs of these things. ”

Xiao Lianshan silently tapped his fingers on the armrest of the chair, but did not answer my question, and then I heard Gu Liancheng let out a long sigh.

"Lianshan, tell Rong Yan, his yin and yang eyes have been opened, everything is providential, if you don't say it now, he will know sooner or later, why are you still like me, an old fool, you can hide it, can you still hide it?"

Xiao Lianshan turned his head to look at Gu Liancheng, and finally his eyes fell on Gu Anqi's body, I saw Gu Anqi nodding to him, Xiao Lianshan withdrew his gaze and hesitated for a long time, and slowly leaned back on the chair to look at me.

The secret of this matter starts with the murals in the imperial tomb...... The murals mentioned by Xiao Lianshan should refer to the huge murals that appeared on the altar with Nie Haoran's blood dripping, and the patterns on them should depict the magnificent life of Genghis Khan, but they are very different from what we are familiar with in literature and history.

"Dad, what do those murals mean?"

Gu Xiaoxiao also asked curiously.

"When Genghis Khan was born, he held a blood clot in his hand, and after breaking it open, he found that it was a blood clot in the shape of a Sulu ingot, which in Mongolia means the god of war, so the Mongolians have always said that Genghis Khan is a god and hero sent by the immortal heaven, and he is born with the right to live and kill."

Xiao Lianshan said calmly.

"The Mongol story of Genghis Khan's birth does have this legend, but it is likely that Genghis Khan was infused with divinity in order to beautify and shape him as a different person."

Nangong Yi said.

"That's right! This is indeed an apocryphal legend, apocryphal and fictional, but ......"

Xiao Lianshan nodded and replied calmly.

"But one thing is true."

"Uncle Xiao, what's true?"

Yun Duruo asked eagerly.

"Genghis Khan was born with a severe plague in Eurasia, near the Mongol tribes, and many people were infected by that plague, but the most terrible thing about this disease was not death......"

Xiao Lianshan said with an anxious face.

"Not death? That...... What is that? ”

Han Yu asked in surprise.

"Immortal!"

Xiao Lianshan raised his head and blurted out.

…… All of us can be shocked and look at Xiao Lianshan in amazement, if a person can not die, it is something that most people dream of, but I don't understand why Xiao Lianshan is so jealous when he says these two words.

We didn't ask any more questions, but waited blankly for Xiao Lianshan to continue, Xiao Lianshan looked at the yellowed ancient book in front of him, took a deep breath and told us.

After the outbreak of the protracted plague, the number of deaths due to the disease was in the millions, and the corpses were piled up like a mountain and there was no time to deal with them, only to gather together and burn them with fire, and the black smoke in the sky was accompanied by death and enveloped the entire sky.

The plague was eventually brought under control and died out, and when people celebrated the return of light, they realized that death had never left, and that the bodies that had died of disease at the beginning of the plague had not been burned and were buried on the spot had crawled out of their graves.

"Corpse...... Crawled out?! ”

Yun Duruo asked dumbfounded.

"That's right! Or not a corpse, but a person who lost his life because of a lesion. ”

Xiao Lianshan pointed to the ancient books on the table and nodded in reply.

"According to the description in the book, it is likely that these people were infected with some kind of bizarre disease during the plague, which caused the body to deteriorate."

Xiao Lianshan's face was worried, telling us that these people who climbed out of the grave ...... They can no longer be called human, but as a mysterious race began to rise and spread, in fact they are more like dead corpses, without a heartbeat and pulse, without breathing, without body temperature, and...... And immortal!

"Zombies?!"

Han Yu was stunned and said.

"There are also dead people in the Taoist family who are resentful because they don't look blind to death, and they can absorb the yin qi of the moon, and zombies will be infected with corpse poison or cemetery feng shui attributes to produce corpse transformation, are these people zombies?"

"No, a zombie is just a corpse transformed into a corpse, and there are many ways to deal with zombies, but these people are not zombies."

Gu Anqi said with certainty next to him.

"Mom, what are these people?"

Gu Xiaoxiao asked eagerly.

Gu Xiao said to us calmly, these people who crawled out of the grave have their own thoughts, can think, talk, and walk around.

Their strength is far greater than that of normal humans, and they have abilities that ordinary people can't get, but their only food is blood, and they are extremely bloodthirsty and must suck blood to ensure their survival.

As long as there is blood, they can live forever, for this reason these diseased people began to slowly discover this trait, and from then on, they began to go around frantically hunting for the blood of living people, at first just to meet their own needs, but later these people found that their characteristics can be inherited to normal people.

Normally, as long as the people who are bitten and infected by them will be like them, they will be resurrected after death to become bloodthirsty monsters, like infectious diseases, even more terrible than the plague, this lesion spreads exponentially, and gradually with the increase in the number of such lesions, it has evolved into a new race of organized and class.

From the initial individual attacks on people simply to satisfy the bloodthirsty disease, to the small-scale raids on villages, and finally to the army, attacking towns and countries, devouring the blood of thousands of normal people, this army has grown in size to the point of frightening and shocking.

"These have abilities that are different from ordinary people, but they are not born with them, because they can live forever As they grow older and more experienced, they will gradually discover their abilities and become stronger."

Xiao Lianshan took Gu Anqi's words, took a deep breath and said lightly.

"The longer you live, the more powerful you are."

"They are no longer stragglers, but are rising as a whole new race, they have many names, and they are called blood in ancient books!"

Gu Anqi paused when she said this, looked at us worriedly, and said.

"Because they are bloodthirsty, they are also called vampires!"

“……”

I looked at Gu Anqi dumbfounded, the corners of my mouth squirmed, of course I had heard the monster she described, but it was just rumors, I never thought that the blood clan really existed
