C122 Zheng's eighteen rooms

"It's you!" After placing the 'Zheng' nameplate and book on the table, I didn't bother to wipe the chair and immediately flipped to the first page.

"The Zheng Family's legacy collapsed completely from the hands of Yun Han. Thinking of all these, I feel ashamed of my ancestors, and I can no longer bring glory to my family, but can it be reopened later on? "If you wish to live in this world, then do your best …"

"Of the eighteen houses of legacies, only the major chamber is in decline. Did she run out of energy? If Yun Han was not willing, how could the verdure leave? major chamber's fate, how could it be controlled by one thing … "

"Unfortunately, it's hard to gather the hearts of people. Only nine rooms in the other seventeen rooms are still the same. As for the rest, don't be in such a rush …"

"The Cosmos Sack was split into eighteen. The second house had been planning for a long time, and they actually lured a wolf into their room!" I am a dignified clan of the Zheng Clan, although there have been struggles and infighting since the ancient times, in the end, it has always been an internal matter. This time, it will be a calamity … "

"Eighteen rooms?" the Cosmos Sack? " I suddenly became nervous. I still don't quite understand what the Eighteenth Room is, but isn't the young man called Jian Tang asking me for it last time?

Yun Han, I know this is grandpa's calligraphy. Yet, my grandfather had written so much before this book, and the tone of his voice was filled with grief and anger, something I had never seen before. In my eyes, he has always been a kind and amiable old man. Even though he has a big obsession in his heart, it has never affected his personality.

"The root of clan fortune was born in the major chamber, yet it fought to the death. The fate of the Zheng clan had already come to an end. If they were enlightened as soon as possible, they would still have a chance. Otherwise, they would be powerless to save their own lives. "

The more he wrote, the more he scrawled. It was obvious that the more he wrote, the more agitated his grandfather was, and the harder it was to control his emotions. At that time, even his pen was shaking heavily.

"Forget it!" The major chamber protected a strand of Qi, dispersing all the treasures, shrinking back into the Ancestral Land. From then on, the Zheng Family no longer had major chamber s, and the rest would become the Zheng Family's seventeenth house! The heavens will judge us! "

The last line was so forceful that even after all these years, I still felt a sense of helplessness and desolation.

Letting out a light breath, I continued flipping through the pages. At the end, there were many introductions of the Zheng family. It was a compiled book. It detailed the glorious past of the Zheng clan, as well as the analysis of many things at that time. It also gave a detailed description of the large objects that the Zheng clan had collected at each time.

Looking at those famous treasures, there were many that had disappeared into the river. Some were still displayed in famous museums in China, and some were even said to have flowed overseas.

I skimmed through them and the more I read, the more shocked I felt.

In the past, I only knew that the Zheng family was once glorious, a colossus in China. There were very few people who dared to capture a tiger's whiskers, and almost everyone was wary of them. But when I saw a lot of the data in front of me, I felt that the vague generalization was really too far off.

The Zheng family originated from the Zhou Dynasty. Its name originated from the Qi Cauldron of the Zhou Dynasty. From the moment it appeared, it was accompanied by great destiny. It could even be called the beloved child of the heavens. Later on, because many were willing, the originally huge Madam Zheng was divided into eighteen rooms, which were led by their own people. At that time, the Zheng family had a great number of outstanding talents, and very soon, each of the eighteen rooms had a great reputation.

It turned out that the Zheng Family wasn't just an ancient sect. It represented a gathering of eighteen branches and a main branch. Just thinking about it made people feel a warm feeling surging in their hearts. Looking back at the history of development that followed, it slowly became a history of strife …

The Zheng Family's ancestral land was in the Huazhou, and the major chamber's foundation was naturally in this Great Qin's land. To put it bluntly, the branch that the Zheng Family's ancient history represented was the major chamber in the Zheng Family's eighteen rooms, which also meant that it was the direct line of descent of the Zheng Family's current inheritances.

I continued to watch until the lights in the surroundings started to dim. Only then did I raise my head to look at my watch in shock. It was already almost 7 PM. He lowered his head for a long time, causing his neck to feel sore and sore. However, he had been immersed in such a state of shock just now, so he didn't have the time to feel this.

He stood up and stretched his neck. Suddenly, the sound of bones cracking could be heard, and he felt much more comfortable.

Suddenly, something seemed to have been knocked against outside the study room. The sound it made couldn't fool the sharp senses of the people on my side of the room.

"Who is it!" I was startled and hurriedly chased after him. Standing at the entrance of the study, a shadow had already disappeared from the back door.

I didn't continue chasing after him. I could tell from the speed at which he disappeared that his lightness skills were pretty good. Even if I chased after him, it wouldn't help me at all.

What's more … I glanced at the study behind me, then at my surroundings. Was this a petty thief or someone with ulterior motives? Immediately, I rejected my previous view. Even if a common thief could run a bit faster, it was impossible for him to have such a powerful lightness skill.

Besides, the owner of the house hadn't been here for a long time. Even if there were thieves, how could they choose such a place?

The more I thought about it, the more I felt that something was amiss. I turned around and packed the books on the table, and then put away the name plate "Zheng" that represented major chamber in my pocket. I also packed some basic, more important secret books as well.

When I returned to the Huazhou from the town, my mother had already prepared a table full of food for me. Seeing my car parked outside, she came over to grumble a bit and then quickly pulled me in to eat.

"Child, why did you forget about the time when you went later? Your father is the same." I told him to go over and call for you, but he just didn't want to.

"Mom, how can I let dad call me. "It's a long distance, and you should know that he's a bit stubborn." I laughed with my mother. I could guess why my father didn't call out to me. He wanted to give me more time to myself.

"Both of you are the same. Sometimes, when you're certain of something, even the nine oxen can't pull you back."

His mother snappily said, then called out to his father for him to hurry up and eat.

My father looked at me and I nodded. I turned my attention back to the table.

Eating at home is never boring, my mother rambled on and on, talking endlessly. Our family doesn't have any troublesome rules about not saying anything and going to bed, it's all very casual.

Naturally, my mother brought up the matter of the blind date and pursued it relentlessly. I could only nod my head and reluctantly deal with it. Otherwise, I might not even be able to eat a proper meal.

After two drinks with my father, we sat in the moneyhouse talking over cups of tea, and my mother, of course, began to clear up the pile at the table again. On the other hand, she seemed to be enjoying herself as she cleaned up.

"You haven't come back for so long, your mom has whispered in my ears many times that she wants to go see you. I didn't let her go, and she hasn't been happy for the past few days." He shook his head and looked back at her, his eyes dark. I know that's what we call being together.

"As a son, I didn't take care of her emotions. I will come back often from now on."

When I was in Weicheng in the past, I didn't think so. After all, it was more convenient in the past. Now that I was in Chang'an, it was hard for Lu Yuan to leave. But she rarely even went to Weicheng. Thinking about it, she really agreed to that pitiful sentence that came from her parents.

"Mm, come back and see her more." Father had something on his mind. He nodded.

I said, "Dad, why don't you leave with mom and head to Chang'an?" My house is big, too. If you guys are not feeling well, find a comfortable place. This will also save you the trouble of going back and forth. "

His father looked around, shook his head and said, "I'm not going anymore. I'm already this old, and I don't want to keep running around outside. "You're still young and don't think much of it. When you reach my age, you'll know what it means to fall back to your roots."

"You still look young, I'll go back to town at noon and see those uncles of yours, they are at least ten years older than you." Thinking of all the aunts in their fifties with wrinkled faces and white hair, I smiled and said something to my father.

My father said, "Life is different, but I have to worry less about it than they do. Forget it, will you be able to find out what you want to know in the old residence? "

His father changed the subject and asked directly.

I nodded. "I've brought back the book from the secret compartment in the study. There's also this nameplate on my car." I took it out and handed it to my father, who looked at it and put it on the table.

"But the book is too thick. I haven't finished reading it yet. However, dad, is there really a Zheng Family's eighteen rooms? " Remembering the incredible record, I wanted to reconfirm it.

His father nodded and said, "Yes, but remember now, it's not the 18th house, it's the 17th house. Your grandpa lost contact with them and from now on, we don't have anything to do with each other anymore."

"Why is that?" I asked curiously.

His father said, "It's a big tree that attracts the winds. Starting from your great-grandfather, the clan is weak and the branches are too strong. Thus, some of the open rivalry and covert struggles that have been around for a long time have been slowly placed on the table."

"No clan can escape this cycle!" Hearing my father's words, I nodded my head.

My father continued, "But from what you said, we didn't want to have anything to do with them, and they took the initiative to look for you. However, due to the fact that there are some clan rules, they are unable to directly act against you, and can only think of ways to force you from the side. "

"But why?" I asked again.

His father sighed and said faintly, "Didn't I tell you that there are people who don't want to see Madam Zheng rise to prominence? If we change those words, perhaps it can be said that they do not wish to see the major chamber rise to power. "
