The forty-eighth volume, the thirty-ninth chapter, the road and the body
In the evening, Baohu City, Baohu Mountain, Huaiyuantang Ancestral Hall...
When Zhang Tie's flying boat arrived at Baohu Mountain, the sun was just about to set. On Baohu Mountain, watching the thousands of rays of light on the sea slowly disappear from the sea level, it was a unique beauty.
There is something solemn about Baohu Mountain in the setting sun, especially the ancestral hall of Huaiyuantang. In the afterglow of the setting sun, the three golden characters "Huaiyuantang" on the door of the ancestral hall are even more solemn.
Yuhui slowly moved from the square outside the ancestral hall to the door of the ancestral hall, and finally moved from the door of the ancestral hall to the golden glazed tiles on the roof of the ancestral hall and the row of auspicious animals on the eaves.
.
Before the afterglow of the setting sun could be removed from the rows of auspicious beasts in the ancestral hall, bronze tripods filled with whale oil had been set ablaze inside and outside the ancestral hall, and the bronze tripods were burning.
The firelight illuminated the inside and outside of the ancestral hall brightly.
"Meet Elder Mu Shen..." The flying boat hovered on the square outside the ancestral hall. When Zhang Tie got off the flying boat, two family deacons came over to greet Zhang Tie.
Zhang Tie came alone today. He did not bring Bai Suxian or Yan Feiqing. Zhang Tie came alone to meet Zhang Taixuan.
"Has the head of the family arrived?" Zhang Tie glanced at the two deacons and asked calmly.
"We have arrived and are waiting for Elder Mu Shen in the ancestral hall!" A family deacon replied respectfully.
"Go ahead, please tell me. I want to discuss important matters with the head of the family today. Inside and outside the ancestral hall, no one is allowed to approach without summons and permission. Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed!" Zhang Tie calmly ordered, without saying much, and went directly to the ancestral hall.
Walk towards the gate of the ancestral hall.
"Yes!" The two family deacons glanced at each other. They both felt that Elder Mu Shen had a bit of a fierce temperament today, which made them feel awe-inspiring and they did not dare to say anything.
Zhang Tie walked into the ancestral hall, and the door of the ancestral hall was closed from the outside.
In the empty ancestral hall, Zhang Taixuan stood under the statue of Duke Huaiyuan in the hall, squinting his eyes slightly and looking solemnly at Zhang Tie who walked in alone.
"I just heard about Miss Ma two days ago. There is no resurrection after death. Losing a confidante is really a great tragedy in life. I would like to ask Elder Mu Shen to express his condolences..." Zhang Taixuan sighed and spoke first.
After listening to Zhang Taixuan's words, Zhang Tie did not respond immediately, but calmly walked to the statue of Duke Huaiyuan with his bow and arrow, raised his head and glanced at the mighty statue, then found three incense sticks, lit them, and worshiped.
He inserted the three incense sticks into the incense burner, then turned around and said to Zhang Taixuan, "Indeed, people cannot be resurrected after death. If the dead can be brought back to life, I am willing to pay any price. If not,
, then as the living, the only thing we can do is to give an explanation to those who have died!"
Zhang Tie's words made Zhang Taixuan's eyes flash, and then Zhang Taixuan looked serious, "Elder Mu Shen is right, this matter must not be left alone. I have ordered Huaiyuantang to provide a reward of 10 million gold coins.
, offered a reward for the capture of the fugitives of Qizhou Shuiyintang Huang Family and Qitianmen, and sent several teams of capable people to Qizhou to look for clues, and must give an explanation to Elder Mu Shen!"
"So, thank you very much, Master!" Zhang Tie also showed a smile on his face, "The reason why I came to the Master this time is because I want to discuss this matter with the Master!"
Hearing what Zhang Tie said, Zhang Taixuan seemed to breathe a sigh of relief. He also laughed and regained his composure, "Elder Mu Shen is the backbone of Huaiyuantang. The matters of Elder Mu are the matters of Huaiyuantang. God Mu
Elder, why should you be so polite? If Elder Mu Shen has something to do, as long as you inform him, everyone in Huaiyuantang will naturally go all out..."
"This is not good. Some things can only be discussed with the head of the family in person..." Zhang Tie said calmly.
Zhang Tie's words were as modest as his usual behavior, so Zhang Taixuan did not think there was anything else in Zhang Tie's words.
"I wonder what's wrong with Elder Mu Shen?"
"I was just on the flying boat and came all the way here. I haven't had dinner yet, so why not order something first and let's chat while we eat..."
"Okay!" Zhang Taixuan nodded, "Then do you want to change places?"
"No, just stay here. It's clean here. I hope as few people in Huaiyuan Hall know about what I'm going to say today as possible, so this place is fine. There's no need to be too ostentatious!"
"I heard that Elder Mu Shen drinks like an ocean. I have known Elder Mu for a long time, but I have never had a drink alone with him. Today you and I can have a drink together in the main hall of the Huaiyuantang Ancestral Hall and discuss important matters together.
, Forget it, I have only one wish..." Zhang Taixuan said cheerfully, and at the same time he took out a sound transmission jade tablet and flicked it three times with his fingers.
In just a moment, the door of the ancestral hall was opened, and several stewards personally brought plates of food and wine and placed them in the ancestral hall. Then the stewards left again.
Looking at the food and wine on the table, Zhang Tie picked up the silver wine pot, first poured a glass for Zhang Taixuan, and then poured a glass for himself. Then Zhang Tie raised the glass and looked at Zhang Taixuan, "Several elders said, before
Because of my disappearance, the head of the family couldn't sleep at night these days. He worked hard on Baohu Mountain for several days, met with various people every day, made overall arrangements for me and Jinwu City, and tried his best to find ways. He felt very haggard.
So for this first glass of wine, I would like to thank the head of the house for his care and concern in the past few days..."
After saying this, Zhang Tie tilted his neck and drank the wine in the glass.
The wine and food were brought from Baohu Mountain, which is Zhang Taixuan's territory. Even the people who brought the wine and food were Zhang Taixuan's confidants, so there was no problem with the wine and food.
After the food and drinks were served, Zhang Taixuan had been quietly watching Zhang Tie's every move. He found that Zhang Tie had no other reaction at all. After seeing Zhang Tie pour the wine and drink a glass of wine, Zhang Taixuan did not use any tricks.
He picked up the wine glass with confidence and drank the wine in one gulp.
After drinking a glass of wine, Zhang Taixuan's face froze instantly. He was like a wooden sculpture, unable to move. He looked at Zhang Tie with horrified eyes.
Zhang Tie sighed, gently played with the wine glass in his hand, looked at Zhang Taixuan, his eyes slowly turned cold, "A few days ago at Yehu Xiaozhu, after the three senior sisters toasted me with the first glass of wine, I was
The soul-leaving poison he was poisoned in was poisoned in the first glass of wine, and the soul-leaving poison that was poisonous was colorless and tasteless, which was really hard to guard against. Now the head of the house also tasted the first cup himself.
I don’t know how I feel about this new soul-leaving poison in the wine..."
