Zhuang Zhou got the answer he wanted from Li Chaowen's sea of memories.

This answer is very simple, so simple that Zhuang Zhou didn't believe it, just like the moment when he suddenly knew how his father Zhuang Tianyang got the answer to "Aoki Secret Method", Zhuang Zhou couldn't cry or laugh.

How Xiaomeng Yupei got into the hands of the cold ghost, this has to start from that time when Li Chaowen and Zhuang Zhou followed Liu Canglong to Bicui Valley to find Zhuang Tianyang.

That time, Li Chaowen had already colluded with Ye Xuan'er, and Ye Xuan'er also informed Zhou Bonian of the news that Liu Canglong's master and apprentice secretly went to Bicui Valley. The purpose is naturally to cause a fight between the two mountains, and she is a good fisherman. Of course, at that time, the reason why Ye Xuan'er knew that Liu Canglong's master and apprentice secretly went to Bicui Valley was also told by Li Chaowen, so she didn't know that they were looking for her husband who had been separated for twenty years, and she only thought that they were looking for an extremely important thing.

However, Liu Canglong's master and apprentice first arrived at the hermitage of the three elders of Menggongtan and found that the three elders had been killed. Li Chaowen preconceived that the murderer was Zhou Bonian, so he tried every possible means to cover up the truth. He found an object in one of the caves, and immediately thought that it might have been accidentally abandoned by Zhou Bonian, so he hurriedly hid it. Later, after it turned out that Liu Canglong killed the three elders of Menggongtan, Li Chaowen thought that he had the evidence of Liu Canglong's murder, but at that time, he was not in a hurry to take it out, and faintly, he always felt that the things hidden in his arms could save his life in the future......

The thing that Li Chaowen hid was that Xiaomeng jade pendant!

This piece of Xiaomeng jade pendant disappeared during the civil strife of the Dream Hunter Clan hundreds of years ago, which is why the Dream Hunter Clan was divided and no patriarch could integrate and unite the Dream Hunter people. Because no one can get this jade pendant left by the ancestor of the Dream Hunter Clan, which symbolizes legal inheritance. Over time, this jade pendant has become a legend, everything about him. People just listen to it as a story. Except for those old people who are familiar with the story of the Dream Hunter Clan, even, even if this jade pendant appears in front of them, many Dream Hunter people will not recognize it at all, because almost no one has seen it!

I don't know what kind of cause and what kind of coincidence, this jade pendant fell into the hands of the three elders of Menggongtan. The three of them should know the origin of some jade pendants, and they usually play and study together. Their apprentice, Leng Ghost, naturally knew about such a jade pendant. Later, the master and apprentice turned their faces into enemies, and the cold ghost was abolished. Tossed and hid in Li Qiaosheng's house. The three elders were disheartened and lived in seclusion in Menggongtan, Liu Canglong sent Ma Shanhao and Hu to raid, and the three of them abandoned the jade pendant in a hurry. Li Chaowen happened to pick it up.

Afterward. Li Chaowen escaped from Yunmeng Mountain with this jade pendant, and indeed returned to Qixia Village, secretly crying on the ruins of his home, but he didn't expect to be discovered by a cold ghost who had just recovered his seven successes.

The cold ghost has been hiding in Li Qiaosheng's house for decades, of course, he knows about the fire that broke out on the ruins of Qixia Village, although he can't know the hidden conspiracy behind this fire, but, with the intuition of a dream hunter. He felt that there must be some secret hidden here. So, after the power gradually recovered. Almost every night, I would come out and explore the ruins, hoping to find something. I didn't expect to run into Li Chaowen. Seeing that he was heartbroken, the cold ghost knew that he had a close relationship with this ruin, and he was overjoyed at first, and without saying a word, he subdued Li Chaowen and forced him to ask, but he didn't get anything, but he found a jade pendant from Li Chaowen's arms, and at a glance, he vaguely remembered that it was a thing treasured by the three masters back then, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and naturally he kept it for himself.

The cold ghost was overjoyed and forgot about Li Chaowen, and Li Chaowen took the opportunity to escape. The cold ghost thinks very highly of himself, and he doesn't care about it at the moment, so he rushes all the way back to the secret room and buries himself in studying this jade pendant. At that time, Li Qiaosheng had already colluded with Gong Dingren to rebel, deliberately exaggerating Zhuang Zhou's divine power in front of the cold ghost, which provoked the cold ghost to finally make a move, and temporarily hid the jade pendant in the stone cabinet in the secret room......

After the news of Zhuang Zhou's killing of the cold ghost reached Feimeng Mountain, Li Chaowen, who had fled to Feimeng Mountain for refuge, immediately thought of the jade pendant and told Zhou Bonian.

Sure enough, there is a destiny in the dark!

Now, Zhuang Zhou has a firm grip on Xiaomeng Yupei, which means that he has regained the glory of his ancestors and gained the supreme authority of the Dream Hunter Clan, although this authority may not be obeyed by others, but, at least, Zhuang Zhou has found a very symbolic reason for his own unification of the Dream Hunter Clan.

The bodies of Zhou Bonian and Li Chaowen were cremated, and the ashes were contained in two black boxes.

Li Chaowen was buried under the ruins of Qixia Village, which can be regarded as a return to his hometown.

As for Zhou Bonian, Zhuang Zhou asked someone to pack up and prepare to take it to Yunmeng Mountain.

This time, Zhuang Zhou stayed in Qixia Village for more than half a month, and after everything was done, he finally wanted to return to the mountain.

Back at Yunmeng Mountain, Zhou Long and Ma Shanhao greeted them at the bottom of the mountain. What happened on Yunmeng Mountain in the past few days Zhou Long had already sent someone to report to Zhuang Zhou, but Zhuang Zhou still asked Zhou Long in person.

Zhou Long said: "On that day, I strengthened the defense of Yunmeng Mountain according to the instructions of the patriarch, adopted the strategy of defending against the enemy and the country, and quietly sent people to ambush beside the road that the enemy must pass. It was Xia Zhengliang who attacked Yunmeng Mountain this time, and he led more than a hundred people to sneak up on the path that the patriarch had predicted. Our crossbowmen have long been prepared, and at the sound of an order, ten thousand arrows will be fired...... Most of the dead and wounded, but Xia Zhengliang was captured alive!"

Zhuang Zhou frowned, and was a little dissatisfied with Zhou Long's killing. However, thinking of the scene at that time, it was also forced by the situation, and he couldn't blame it.

Since Zhuang Zhou became the patriarch, he has been known for his ruthlessness in handling things. Therefore, he did not hesitate at all to kill the cold ghost, kill Gong Dingren and his comrades, and kill Li Qiaosheng's entire family. It turned out that Zhuang Zhou thought that although Feimeng Mountain had been destroyed, his ultimate goal was to unify the Dream Hunter Clan, so he had to buy people's hearts, especially the hearts of Yunmeng Mountain. Even for Zhou Bonian, Zhuang Zhou had fantasized about keeping his life in exchange for the submission of Yunmeng Mountain. After all, they are people of the same clan, and the people of Yunmengshan can't talk about a rebellion conspiracy at all, so I am afraid that such a killing will make the people of Yunmengshan panic and have a great impact on Zhuang Zhou's plans.

But the matter has come to this, Zhuang Zhou has no choice but to find another way.

He asked again, "How is Xia Zhengliang's condition?"

Zhou Long said: "This guy was still stubborn at first, but after hearing that Zhou Bonian was dead, he cried a few times and went on a hunger strike, and now I'm afraid it's ......" Before he finished speaking, Zhuang Zhou interrupted him and said: "It's rare for Feimeng Mountain to have such a loyal person as him! If Zhou Shibo knew, he should have smiled...... Save his life, I'll see him tonight......"

When Zhou Long heard this, he opened his mouth and stammered.

After Zhuang Zhou returned to the mountain, he immediately summoned Ma Shanhao, Zhou Long, and Ma Tianhu in the patriarch's room, and told them their plans, and several people looked at each other after listening to them.

It turned out that Zhuang Zhou planned to personally take Zhou Bonian's ashes to Feimeng Mountain the next day to prepare a grand burial ceremony for Zhou Bonian, and then appoint Xia Zhengliang as the master of Feimeng Mountain, and return all the captured Feimeng Mountain disciples under Xia Zhengliang's unified jurisdiction.

Everyone knows that Zhuang Zhou's ambition is to unify the Dream Hunter Clan, but in this way, what is the difference from before?

As if seeing everyone's doubts, Zhuang Zhou said: "Xia Zhengliang is just a manager appointed by Yunmeng Mountain, and Zhou Bonian naturally has no rights in the past, so he must obey my orders...... In other words, from now on, the Dream Hunter Clan will not be divided into Yunmeng Mountain and Feimeng Mountain, everyone will be one!"

Everyone suddenly realized, and at the same time they were even more in awe of Zhuang Zhou!

You must know that it is easy to eliminate Feimeng Mountain, but it is the most difficult thing to bridge the gap between the two mountains that has been formed for thousands of years! The people of Feimeng Mountain have a sense of superiority compared to Yunmeng Mountain, but now they have suddenly become the defeated army of Yunmeng Mountain's subordinates and become the second-class clansmen of the Dream Hunter Clan, and their psychological gap can be imagined! If Zhuang Zhou moves all the people of Feimeng Mountain to Yunmeng Mountain and completely eliminates all the old traces of Feimeng Mountain, the result can only arouse the resistance of the people of Yunmeng Mountain, and maybe it will even cause disaster! Moreover, there are more than 30 villages around Feimeng Mountain, with more than 20,000 villagers, and it is naturally impossible for these people to migrate on a large scale.

Therefore, Zhuang Zhou's strategy of using the people of Feimengshan to govern Feimengshan is a little helpless, but it is also a clever move.

However, will Xia Zhengliang willingly submit to Zhuang Zhou's wish and become a "branch hall master" of the Dream Hunter Clan?

Zhuang Zhou is confident enough.

After discussing the matter, Zhuang Zhou left Ma Shanhao alone and inquired about the cultivation of the disciples of Yunmeng Mountain and the progress of refining the elixir during this time. Ma Shanhao reported truthfully: Since Zhuang Zhou left, the disciples have practiced as usual, and due to the promotion of the unique secret method of cultivation taught by Zhuang Zhou, everyone's cultivation speed is obviously faster, and the number of disciples who have entered the level of the illusion dream realm has increased by several times. As for the refining of the pill, it is also good news, Li has continuously transported ore from the mine, and Ma Shanhao has continuously sent people into the mountains to collect other refining materials, and the process of alchemy has gradually matured, so in a short period of time, more than a dozen Gunian Pills have been refined, and even a small drop of red fruit liquid has been refined!

Zhuang Zhou was very pleased, excited in his heart, and said: "There is really an old uncle!"

Ma Shanhao smiled: "This is what I should do...... I can still do something for Yunmeng Mountain in this life, I should be grateful to the patriarch in my heart!"

Zhuang Zhou's heart moved, and he finally said the main purpose of leaving Ma Shanhao: "Uncle Ma, this time I have figured out one thing in Qixia Village, that is, about Li Chaowen's life experience. It turned out that Li Chaowen's ancestors were also dream hunters, and they kept a secret of the dream hunting clan for generations...... This secret was finally leaked when it reached Li Chaowen's father, Li Jinxi, and a fire broke out more than 20 years ago, which burned his house to the ground, and the secret was also plundered. Uncle Shi, do you know what happened back then?"

Zhuang Zhou said, looking directly at Ma Shanhao, wanting to see something from the change in his face. (To be continued......)
