Li Xuyang looked at Wang Xiaokai holding their family tree and asked blankly, "Grandpa Wang, what are you doing with the family tree?"

"This genealogy records things about a hundred years ago, as for what it is, you can see for yourself!" Wang Xiaokai said and put the genealogy in Li Xuyang's hand, and then when he got a glass of water, Wang Hongzhi stood beside Li Xuyang with great interest and looked at it together. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The content of the genealogy was recorded from the eighth year of Zhu Yuanzhang, and it can be seen how many times this genealogy has been copied before it can be preserved to this day.

In the eighth year of Zhu Yuanzhang, Wang Taihai, the ancestor of the Wang family, served as the governor of Shanxi, and the genealogy was also written from Wang Taihai. In the past 800 years, the Wang clan has produced high-ranking officials, generals, and queens who married into the royal family.

However, at the end of the Qing Dynasty, after Emperor Xuantong Aixin Jueluo Zhiyi ascended the throne, he was very dissatisfied with the people of the Wang family. Because at that time, Xuantong became the puppet emperor of the Japanese after the 918 Incident, and with the support of the Japanese, it was a great demonstration of the cruelty of the Wang family.

So much so that at the beginning of 1912, the Wang family fled to Xin'an, Hongdong, Shanxi. At that time, the Wang clan with Wang Wu as the patriarch was already dying, and they were brilliant at that time, and they were also like lost dogs, hiding everywhere.

After coming to Xin'an, it was only half a year before Wang Wu was called the village head. There is even a Li family, which is still a large family, who can be sheltered. After Wang Wu became the head of the village, there was no corruption or anything like that, and the Li family was also very satisfied with this.

At that time, the head of the Li family was Li Tianyang, Li Tianyang and Wang Wu were about the same age, and they were also very good buddies in private. After Li Tianyang's death, Li Tianheng, as the second brother, found the village Wang Wu and proposed to move north.

Wang Wu did not stop it, not long after Li Tianheng came to Handan with the Li family, the war spread to Xin'an, Shanxi, Wang Wu thought that Xuantong began to chase and kill his own people again, so he fled to Handan, Hebei with his clansmen.

Coincidentally, Li Tianheng did not stay in Xin'an Town, Handan, Hebei Province for too long, and Wang Wu fled with his family. So the two families continued to thrive in this strange new place.

Although Shanxi is not very far from Hebei, it is full of dangers. Li Tianmo died on the way, and his son was nowhere to be found. The Wang family was no better, and when they fled to Hebei and settled down, when they counted the number of people, they found that most of the family members were either dead or missing on the way.

Wang Li's two families have been living in Xin'an Town until today, a hundred years later.

"It turns out that our family also moved from Shanxi?" Wang Hongzhi said after taking a sip of water.

Wang Xiaokai nodded noncommittally, "I didn't want to mention such an old thing again, it's just that Li Xuyang is kind by nature and loves to trust others, I took out the family tree for him to see, just to prove that what I said is for him." ”

Li Xuyang suddenly realized this matter, and at first he didn't understand why Wang Xiaokai wanted to show himself the family tree, which was a big taboo in the family. However, the old man in front of him turned out to be for himself, and he didn't care about this taboo.

Li Xuyang's eyes were a little moist, and he had the urge to kneel in front of Wang Xiaokai. He doesn't have many relatives now, and Wang Xiaokai is definitely one of them. In Li Xuyang's heart, he has long regarded Wang Xiaokai as his own grandfather, and in Wang Xiaokai's heart, Li Xuyang has become the same grandson as Wang Hongzhi, and even closer to him than Wang Hongzhi.

"Whether you are a person or do something, you must pay attention to a principle, consider the consequences before doing things, and not do things with a clear conscience. Before doing things, we must first be able to be a human being, and how can we do good deeds if we can't do a good job? Will a person who is not good in moral character and has a bad mind do good things to learn from Lei Feng? The answer is very simple. Wang Xiaokai looked at Li Xuyang and said, of course, he was also saying to Wang Hongzhi.

Li Xuyang nodded, and what Wang Xiaokai said was very reasonable. Of course, it is also a lesson for myself, so that I can also understand some things. There is also his sentence "Some things are not as simple as they seem", and people are the same, everything will not be for nothing, there is a cause and effect.

"Ma Jiu is a cunning man, you are not an opponent at all when you fight with him, maybe it seems to be calm now, and he will even help you, but we don't know what he thinks in his heart, maybe after this matter is dealt with, he will turn against him and fight back. Wang Xiaokai advised, the meaning is very simple, that is, stay away from Ma Jiu.

Li Xuyang and Wang Hongzhi both nodded, indicating that they knew what to expect.

"It's time for dinner, Hongzhi go and bring me the rice!" Wang Xiaokai looked at Wang Hongzhi and said.

Wang Hongzhi did not refuse, turned around and walked out. Li Xuyang was about to leave, planning to go back to eat, but was stopped by Wang Xiaokai with his hand, and waited for Wang Hongzhi to go out before saying, "Come into the inner room." ”

Li Xuyang didn't understand what this old man was doing more and more, but he couldn't help but listen, so he had to go into the back room.

After coming to the back room, Wang Xiaokai was already sitting on the edge of the kang, pointed to his side, and motioned for Li Xuyang to sit down as well.

Li Xuyang had no choice but to sit beside him, and then waited for Wang Xiaokai to speak.

After a short silence, Wang Xiaokai opened his mouth and asked, "Do you really want to be a mourner?"

Although Li Xuyang didn't understand the meaning of this question, he still nodded.

"It's a very dangerous road, and no one can make it happen for you. Wang said with a smile, and then said, "Moreover, there is also life and death." ”

"I know Grandpa Wang, I want to change the fate of my family, and I want my father's life. I don't want to watch my home go down, I didn't know it before, but now that I know, I can't help but stand up and do something. Li Xuyang replied very affirmatively and straightforwardly, without a trace of hesitation.

"Fate cannot be rewritten, there is no doubt about that. Wang Xiaokai said.

"I know, but it's a curse to say it's fate. It stands to reason that Wang Wu should also know what happened a hundred years ago, but there is no record in the family tree, right?" asked Li Xuyang.

"No, it's supposed to be a history that can't be recorded, or something that the family doesn't know. It's just that from the genealogy, there is not a single record. ”

"Well, genealogy is not history, how can it record other people's affairs?" Li Xuyang smiled.

"To get back to the point, if you want to be a mourner, I can only tell you a few ways, but whether you can use it or not depends on your creation. Of course, it's also dangerous, but it's not the time yet, and we'll go to that person when it's over. ”

The end of this matter refers to the incident of the five ghosts hurting the five elements. But who is the person Wang Xiao is referring to? Li Xuyang didn't know, and of course he didn't ask much.

"Okay, you go back first!" Wang Xiaokai said that he was going to send Li Xuyang away, and when Li Xuyang turned to leave, he asked, "Is there still a mourner in the whole of China?

"I don't know, but there should be a mourner, but it should be in Shanxi. As far as I know, I haven't seen a mourner, you have to know that in the past, the mourner was a very special profession, and the feudal superstition was very suppressed, even if there is an estimate, they have changed their careers to do something else. They will not admit that they are mourners, and they are afraid that they will be the target of repression. Wang Xiaokai told the truth, and there was no need to lie to him.

There is no mourner, Li Xuyang is a little concerned about this matter. Is it only the Li family that can become a mourner, this Li Xuyang is also very related. If there is a mourner, then he may be able to become a mourner himself, and if someone from another clan can also become a mourner, then the chances of finding that person will increase.

"Okay! I'll go back first. After Li Xuyang finished speaking, he turned around and left. When he walked to the door, he happened to meet Wang Hongzhi who came over with rice, and at this moment Li Xuyang realized that Wang Xiaokai was not hungry, but just took Wang Hongzhi to whisper to himself, Jiang was really old and spicy.

Back at home, Li Xuyang realized that something was wrong today after dinner, and suddenly found that there was one person missing, Zhao Rui.

"Dad, where is Zhao Rui?" Li Xuyang looked around, since he came back, he hadn't seen anyone from Zhao Rui.

"She? She said school would start the day after tomorrow, so she went home and got ready to go. Li Yongan said as he cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks.

"Oh. Li Xuyang was a little unhappy, although Zhao Rui had not caused much trouble in the past few days at his house, he was also very happy for Li Xuyang. It's just that she left suddenly, and someone left him with an empty heart.

"By the way, she left you a letter, see for yourself in your room!" Li Yongan said, and walked into the kitchen.

Li Xuyang quickly ran to his room, and there was a letter on the table, Li Xuyang didn't think much about it, but opened it directly.

"Li Xuyang, in the past few days at your house, I have caused you a lot of trouble, but these days are the happiest days since my summer vacation. The day after tomorrow, I'll start school, and I can't look at you for a long time......"

In the middle, if you care about it, you will skip straight to the end.

"Zhao Ruibi, if you really want to come to me, look for me at the Handan City Railway Station the day after tomorrow! I am the train at two o'clock in the afternoon, by the way, I am studying at Shanxi University of Finance and Economics, goodbye. ”

After Li Xuyang finished reading it, the corners of his eyes were a little moist, and an inexplicable feeling came to his heart. And now Li Xuyang is really as uncomfortable as a child who has lost his beloved gift, on that letter, Zhao Rui's face, her voice, and her movements appear piece by piece like a movie film.

"Ahem. Li Yongan appeared at the door of Li Xuyang's room at some point, leaned against the door, and coughed lightly. Then he smiled and said, "If you want to go, you can go! I regret it, but it's too late, you are not too young, it's time to find a daughter-in-law for me." ”

"Dad, you've read this letter. Li Xuyang glanced at his father and asked a little angrily.

"Well, I'm idle and bored, so I watched it several times. ”

"I...."Li Xuyang was speechless.
