Chapter 120 The ancestor is dead?
"What's your name, young man? Where do you live?"
The Qiang ancestor asked with a smile.
"Qin An, I live in South City." Qin An said lightly.
Just when he was about to ask if there were any ancient tombs near Qiang City, the old ancestor interrupted Qin An as if she had predicted it.
"Brother Qin An likes our Hua Ling?"
Hear the words.
Qin An shook his head.
"I just saw her this afternoon, how can I say I like her? Compared to a romantic relationship... May I ask if the ancestor knows the whereabouts of Yinxu Ancient City?"
The voice just fell.
The smile on the old ancestor's face gradually froze.
Her tone was a little erratic. “How come… even you, Brother Qin An, are here to look for Yinxu Ancient City?”
and also?
Hear this!
Qin An was glad that he came to attend the Ke Diao party!
It's really hard to find even after searching everywhere!
It takes no effort at all!
"From what you said, ancestor...has anyone else come to look for Yinxu Ancient City?" Qin An asked in a clichéd way.
"Well... more than ten years ago, a group of people came to our Qiang City and clamored to find the Yinxu Ancient City... The leader seemed to be surnamed Chen?" The old ancestor's words were full of memories.
"List?"
Qin An shook his head to indicate that he didn't know him.
"Brother Qin An! That Yinxu Ancient City is a very evil and sinister place! You must not go there! You might as well stay and marry Ling'er! Give birth to several big fat boys for her on your wedding night!" The old ancestor raised his hand to persuade Qin An.
As soon as these words came out.
Ling'er's little face turned red instantly.
Although she is only over eighteen.
But she still knows why women can give birth to children...and what needs to happen in between.
But Qin An shook his head and said:
"To be honest, ancestor! I have no intention of staying here any longer... I went to Yinxu Ancient City just to repay a favor! As for Ling'er... if she is willing, I can take her away from Qiang City."
He only wants the inner elixir of King Qi in the ancient city of Yinxu.
Save Jiang Liuli!
As for other things... they are all secondary.
"Alas...Brother Qin An! How can the life of a tomb robber who travels all over the world be as comfortable as having a wife and children at home?"
Hear the words.
The ancestor directly pointed out Qin An's identity as a tomb robber.
"Forget it! Even I, an old woman, can't persuade you!"
A barely perceptible look of pathos flashed across the old ancestor's eyes.
She took out a jade pendant from her bosom.
"This jade is called the Auspicious Cloud Lock! It was originally one piece, but now it's been split apart to give to the two of you!"
The voice just fell.
The ancestor placed his two thumbs on the auspicious cloud lock and twisted it hard, and the jade pendant split into two irregular halves.
Give half to Qin An and Ling'er each.
"Ancestor...where is the location of the Yinxu ancient city?" Qin An wanted to continue asking about the location of the tomb.
But the old ancestor raised his finger and pointed at the jade pendant in his hand.
"Brother Qin An! I can only give you instructions up to this point... Niece! I'm a little sleepy! Please come and help me go back to rest!" The old ancestor waved his hand and said.
"Yes!"
Subsequently.
A group of elderly women over sixty years old supported the old ancestor and slowly walked down the platform.
Qin An fell into deep thought as he watched his ancestor leave.
........
The next day.
Qin An slowly opened his eyes on the second floor of the B&B.
But then a mourning voice was heard not far away, "Huzi! Go and inform everyone! Our ancestor passed away last night!"
"Ah...Brother Niu, what did you say? The ancestor is dead?" Hu Zi said in shock.
"What?! Hang white cloth all over the city! Notice to all Qiang people to gather at the foot of Shennongjia as soon as possible!"
Brother Niu shouted.
He hurried away to clean up the area near Shennongjia.
Shortly after.
Boom boom boom!
The sound of ringing bells was heard.
For a while.
All the Qiang people stopped what they were doing and rushed to the foot of Shennongjia.
Without him.
This "dong dong dong" ringing sound can only be made when an ancestor passes away.
at this time.
Ling'er's sobbing voice was heard outside the door.
"Brother Qin An! Are you still asleep? The old ancestor...she passed away naturally! Do you want to attend her burial ceremony?"
Last night on the platform.
Qin An said coldly that he didn't like her.
Ling'er cried for half the night last night, covering herself with the quilt.
This morning I heard the news that my ancestor passed away.
She is extremely sad now.
Without the protection of ancestors!
I'm afraid her stepmother will become even worse!
inside the house.
Qin An was pondering the auspicious cloud lock in his hand. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he always felt that when he woke up from a sleep, the mountains surrounding Qiang City had moved a little further into the city.
How strange!
Besides...last night, the ancestor used brute force to break the jade pendant Xiangyun Lock into two halves and gave them to him and Ling'er respectively.
How overnight?
She died?
Qin An couldn't understand!
This Qiang City always feels even more mysterious and treacherous than the evil beast mechanism in King Qi’s tomb!
"Brother Qin An? Are you awake? Do you want to attend our ancestor's burial ceremony?" Ling'er asked again.
The voice just fell.
Qin An took out the black gold ancient sword from the system space and put it on his back. Then he opened the door and said, "Go."
He would like to see.
Is this ancestor really dead or is he faking his death?
The two walked out of the B&B.
The street before me was deserted.
All the small vendors packed up their goods and rushed to Shennongjia early. This was the burial ceremony of their ancestors and no slackness was allowed.
As for the tourists who come to Qiang City for tourism.
It’s also because locals don’t do business.
Just follow them to Shennongjia to watch the fun.
Qin An and Ling'er walked quickly to the outside of Shennongjia. Although it was called Shennongjia, it was actually a basin about the size of two standard football fields. Inside the basin, there were wooden frames in the eight directions of the Bagua, for the Qiang people to sing and dance.
"Wuwuwu...Sister! Why did our ancestor suddenly pass away? Didn't Sitang say she would live to be a hundred years old?"
Under Shennongjia.
Next to the parked coffin.
An old lady in her sixties asked crying.
"I think so too... Logically, Si Tang is incredibly foresighted! He predicted three years in advance that outsiders would come to Qiang City to search for ancient tombs! He also predicted that our ancestor would live to be a hundred years old!"
"But...but she was only 98 years old! How could she die of old age?" The person who spoke was the old lady who took Qin An to the platform last night.
She is the great niece of our ancestor.
They have a high status among the Qiang people.
"I don't know either...but the old man passed away with a smile on his face! As if he had accomplished a mission! That's why I issued an obituary saying that the old man died of old age."
at this time.
Qin An, standing on a high mountain at the edge of Shennongjia, frowned slightly.
This old ancestor really has no breath and heartbeat...
But he clearly saw the old man's fingers move slightly just now.
