The sunset gradually set, and in the evening breeze, the paper ash swirled, with a little spark, floating in the cemetery, but it was bound by the formation and could not fly out.

In July, the northern land is getting colder, and the crops in the fields are about to ripen, and if there is a spark flying out at this time, causing a fire, I don't know how many families will have to have no food and clothing, and it will be difficult to winter.

In front of the Pan family's tomb, there are now only three left: Pan Shou, Pan Lei and Pan Long. The rest of the people returned home with offerings, which they would mix into dinner tonight and share them with the family.

In some places, it is popular to place offerings in front of the grave all the time, but the Northlanders do not do this, one is a shameful waste, and the other is that the children and grandchildren eat with their ancestors, which is also a manifestation of filial piety and family prosperity.

If the ancestors had spirits, I believe that they would also be willing to eat and drink in harmony with the whole clan, rather than enjoying cold pork alone.

When the last ray of sunlight disappeared and the entire cemetery was completely dark, Pan Lei walked to the side of the tomb and pressed the mechanism, the secret door behind the tomb opened, and a staircase appeared in front of him.

The three of them descended the stairs and entered the tomb.

The tomb of the Pan family is not much different from the ordinary tomb of a wealthy family, with the ancestral tablets on one side and the coffins of the ancestors on the other. The difference is that the coffins here are all small, because there are no corpses in the coffins, only ashes.

Cremation is a long-standing tradition of the Pan family.

This family, which was tasked with a rebellion, did not dare to leave the corpses of its own people.

Correctly, it is said that the heads of the family in the past did not dare to leave their own corpses.

The living can keep secrets, but the dead often cannot.

So they had no choice but to burn themselves to ashes.

And...... After they die, they have to do a special way to scatter their souls and ensure that they are completely destroyed.

This is a secret that has been passed down from generation to generation of the Pan family, and no one knows it except for the previous heads of the family.

As for the cremation of other clansmen after death, it is actually just a cover-up.

Pan Shou took his son and grandson to incense a memorial tablet? A little spark reflecting white smoke? Along the specially designed ventilation ducts, it gradually spreads through the tomb.

After all the incense is done? Pan Long said: "I have been walking the rivers and lakes all these years? I met a few old-timers in the early years of the Great Summer. According to them, the patriarch he ...... Maybe it's called 'Arnold' or 'Gundam'? The real body is not an extraordinary person, but a wise man. ”

"Is the Mo family's Heavenly Skill a skill?" Pan Lei was a little surprised? Ask.

"Probably, right? He wasn't a noticeable person back then, and those seniors didn't pay much attention to him. ”

"After all, it was that era, and there were too many outstanding people in the world. Pan Shou sighed, "Little people? There's nothing wrong with that. And if he wasn't a little guy? How can they have a chance to sabotage Emperor Jiazi's plan?"

"No wonder he jumped into the volcano when he was dying, thinking that he had to rely on the fire of the earth to completely burn himself in order to stop the troubles. "Have you found out which volcano he was buried in?"

Pan Long shook his head.

When the commander of the forbidden army stole the mountain and sea scripture and escaped, was it a secret of the emperor's family? Even the national teacher Lanling didn't know the situation.

And the robot ancestor of the Pan family is indeed a capable person, not only did he destroy the Kyushu Great Array? stole the Classic of Mountains and Seas as the eye of the array, and erased the traces left on his escape - not a material "erasure"? Rather, it is "erased" from the causal level.

Pan Long had tried to trace this ancestor with a spell himself, but with his skills? But nothing was found.

Does this person really exist? But what has this man ever done? But it was blank.

It's like ...... A blank document with only a name.

This matter is related to the biggest secret of the Pan family, so naturally it is not good to find help from others, so he can only leave it to his cultivation to further improve, and then take advantage of it.

But he had a feeling - no matter how much his cultivation improved, even if he cultivated to become an immortal Buddha, he probably wouldn't be able to account for the affairs of the ancestors.

The ancestor is not in the "cause and effect" of this world.

This may not be the supernatural power of the ancestor himself, it may be the original design of Zhao Sheng and Wen Chao.

At that time, they naturally could not have expected that they would be successful in their careers, or that they would be able to cultivate and grow into a life. So, when they are gone, who will carry on their legacy and move the world in a better direction?

The ancestors may be the "preparations" they made at the beginning, and the "back hands" they left behind.

For thousands of years, the secrets of the Pan family have never been discovered by the Great Xia court, nor have they been discovered by masters from all walks of life.

That may be the effect of the "back hand" in the first place.

But in any case, these things are in the past.

Zhao Sheng and Wen Chao are dead, and the Book of Mountains and Seas has a new heir, the Great Xia court...... has gradually come to the twilight of life.

Just as Pan Long was thinking, Pan Shou suddenly said: "Ah Long, I heard that you became a patrol envoy of the imperial court and did something great in Youzhou?"

Pan Long nodded: "That's right." The main thing is to crack down on local tyrants and help promote the reform of the law. ”

"Looks like you've decided. Pan Shou sighed, "That's fine." ”

In his opinion, since Pan Long became an official of the imperial court and worked so hard, he did not plan to inherit the rebellion mission of the Pan family.

This made him have some regrets, but more of a relief to let go of his burden.

The mission of the Pan family has been like a mountain for thousands of years, weighing heavily on the bodies of the previous family heads, making them unable to even breathe.

Over the years, the heads of the Pan family have used a lot of means to keep secrets.

Not to mention anything else, when they get married, they have to practice a special exercise to ensure that they sleep chaotic and dreamless from now on, so as not to tell dreams and reveal secrets.

is so wary of the people next to the pillow, such a day is not easy!

Now that Pan Long has let it go, it is the Pan family that has let it go, and he has also let it go.

If you put it down, although you will regret it and be sad, it is indeed relaxed.

Pan Long only glanced at it, and he understood his grandfather's mind.

He smiled and explained, "The Great Xia Dynasty has been sinked into trouble, even if we try to save it, these various problems that have been precipitated for thousands of years cannot be saved by manpower...... What I'm doing now is just what I should do as a person who can do it, and that's it. ”

Pan Shou was a little puzzled and asked, "What about the rebellion?"

"I have a lot of time and can wait slowly. It will always wait until the Great Xia Dynasty really has no hope of saving, so it can only smash it and start over. Pan Long said, "And...... I have a feeling that this day may not be far away. ”

"Now that the situation of the Diluo Southern Law Reform is very good, and the situation in the entire Great Xia has obviously improved, why do you think it is not far from death?" Pan Lei asked suspiciously.

He is very concerned about the world's major affairs, and of course he knows that since Di Luonan sacrificed himself to save his father, he has won the trust of Di Renchen. Although he has been recuperating from his injuries and rarely goes out, he has received strong support from Di Renchen for all things to change the law.

With the support of the Son of Heaven, the progress of the law change has been much smoother. Now that many powerful and powerful bullies in various places are being attacked one after another, those things that are boiling with public resentment have been rectified and liquidated one by one, and the entire Great Xia Dynasty seems to have the meaning of reviving in the twilight, and even prospering again.

Why does Pan Long feel that this court can't last long?
