195. The first head of the Xie family

Xie Zheng stood in place for a while, then twisted a few sticks of incense around the huge rosewood offering table, lit it, bowed a few times, and then inserted the incense into the incense burner.

The chill lingered around his body, and it didn't dissipate for a long time, Xie Zheng didn't care, and walked around the ancestral hall for a while before pushing open the door of the compartment and walking in.

The dull smell of paper and ink was not unpleasant, but it didn't smell good.

Looking through the rows of bookshelves made of rosewood, she walked to the deepest part of the room, and with a raised hand, she removed a few dusty books from the highest shelf.

That was the first generation of the Xie family's genealogy.

The genealogies were thick, the paper was yellowed, and in some places the ink was even a little blurry.

Xie Zheng spread out the pages of the book, carefully identifying the handwriting on it, and suddenly saw a familiar name written on the title page.

"Xie Bi'an?"

Xie Zheng: "? ”

What is it? This Xie Bi'an should have nothing to do with Xie Bi'an of Jiuyou, right?

Xie Zheng hurriedly picked up the genealogy, rushed to the outer room, and searched among the portraits on the wall, trying to find the portrait of 'Xie Bi'an'.

As a result, after searching the entire courtyard, no portrait of the first generation of the Xie family was found.

Xu Xie Zheng stayed in the ancestral hall for too long, and he didn't come out until the evening, and Xie's father was a little worried, so he took Xie Xun to look for her.

Seeing her standing in the courtyard in a daze with a stack of genealogies on her face, and the candles were not lit, and the cold of early spring became more obvious at night, and the wind was also cold, and the whole ancestral hall looked a little crazy.

Although he was not afraid of ghosts and gods, and this was his own deceased immortal, Father Xie didn't think there was anything, but seeing Xie Zheng's expression, he vaguely felt that something was wrong.

"Zheng'er, what are you doing here?"

Hearing the voice, Xie Zheng came back to his senses, turned his head to look at him, sighed, and asked, "Dad, why is there no portrait of the first head of the Xie family?" ”

This was more than 3,000 years ago, who knows? Even if it might be lost or destroyed in the middle, it's possible.

Father Xie shook his head: "Maybe it's never been, Zheng'er, what are you looking for this?" ”

Xie Xun and Father Xie both knew a little about the Nine Shadows, but Xie Zheng didn't tell them what the two envoys of the Hades King were called.

After thinking about it, she raised her feet and walked towards the ancestral hall, and said as she walked: "Dad, big brother, you can come in too." ”

Finding an empty table, Xie Zheng opened the genealogy, revealing the life of this 'Xie Bi'an', and said: "There is a messenger of the Hades Monarch in Jiuyou, named Xie Bi'an. ”

Xie Hyun: "? ”

"What do you mean? You don't want to say that our first family master is the Xie Bi'an of Jiuyou, right? ”

After a pause, she sighed again: "I don't know. ”

She really didn't know that the envoy of the Immortal Monarch would exist for many thousands of years, and who would link him with a family in the human world.

"Maybe it's just a coincidence."

The expression on Xie Zheng's face was really not good, and Father Xie was a little worried when he saw this.

"Zheng'er, why do you want to check these things?"

Xie Zheng thought about it for a while and decided to tell the truth: "Daddy didn't know, when I went back to Tangtang City, Xie Xun and I both smelled the smell of corpses in the soul sacrifice array on the outskirts of Tangtang City. ”

"This time in Kyoto, Dasheng, on the day of the Flower Dynasty Festival parade, I also smelled the smell of corpses in the palace, which was better than the last time in Tangtang City."

After a pause, she added, "Except for me and Xie Hyun, there is no third person who can smell the stench of these corpses, so... I want to find out why. ”

These things, if they were in the past, Xie Zheng would not have said them, and Xie Xun would not have said them, so this was the first time that Father Xie had heard them, and I have to say that he was also extremely shocked.

Although the Xie family has also produced many famous monks in the past, like Xie Zheng, who was born with a sword bone, it is still an extremely rare mutated Lei Linggen, which can be said to be the only one, giving birth to two children, Xie Xun and Xie Zheng, and even he thinks that it is the level of green smoke from the ancestral tomb.

It's just that this kind of abnormality appeared in the two children, but it also made him worried, and casually pulled out a reason: "Could it be because you two spiritual roots are better?" ”

Xie Zheng immediately denied his statement: "Father, there are many monks with good spiritual roots who were present twice, and they can't smell it." ”

Father Xie was silent for a moment.

Xie Zheng saw that he was silent, and he couldn't ask anything, so he looked out the window, waved his hand, and said, "Forget it, let's go back first, I'm a little hungry." ”

The three of them left the ancestral hall in silence, and when they returned to the front yard, Ciyin was no longer in the Xie Mansion, presumably following Mrs. Yan back to the City Lord's Mansion, and Xie Zheng didn't ask much.

Seeing that these three people were a little depressed, Xie Mu couldn't help but feel funny, so she asked, "What's the matter?" It's all the same as frosted eggplant, what's going on? ”

Xie Zheng washed his hands, sat down at the table, scooped up a washed begonia fruit and took a big bite, and replied vaguely: "Mother, you have been married to my father for so many years, have you found anything wrong in the Xie family?" ”

When Xie Mu heard this, she was slightly stunned: "Something is wrong?" ”

Xie Zheng swallowed the fruit in his mouth and nodded: "Yes, it's different from my grandfather's house." ”

The husband is the head of this generation, and he gave birth to a daughter with outstanding talent who worshiped the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, and the son cultivated as the heir of the next head of the family is also very good, from the moment she married into the Xie family, she Zhang Yishu is the well-deserved head of the Xie family, and no one dares to question it.

In addition, she herself is also a person with means and ability, and she has never been despised, so if you want to talk about abnormalities, she thinks that the biggest abnormality is that the Xie family, whether it is her own family or the side branches, is very easy to handle.

When she said this, she was immediately refuted by Father Xie.

"Where is it easy to handle, those guys, all of them are like jackals, tigers and leopards, or Mrs. is powerful, and she doesn't dare to make a mistake when she cleans them up!"

Xie Zheng: "......"

I'm afraid it's impossible to find a breakthrough from her parents.

After dinner, after Xie Zheng finished bathing, he sent a message to Ciyin and Xie Xun, inviting them to come to their room late at night and prepare to do a big thing.

The willow tops on the moon, the moon shadow is mottled, and the steep spring breeze blows up.

Xie Hyun was dressed in black, sneakily jumped in from the window, and then saw that there was an uninvited guest in his sister's room, and he was immediately a little unhappy.

"You monk, what are you doing?"

Xie Zheng glanced at him: "What are you wearing black?" Is there something wrong? ”

Xie Hyun immediately snorted, took her arm thoughtfully, and explained, "Didn't you say that it was convenient to act at night? Isn't it routine for me to think about wearing a nightwalk? ”

Xie Zheng: "......"

"Have you read too much of the book? We are cultivators, and some of us have the method to lose our body, and we still need to wear night clothes? ”

"Besides, I'm not going to take you to visit anyone's house at night tonight, I'm just doing a simple spiritualism."

Yes, that's right, she wants to recruit the soul of the first head of the family back to the world.
