Bureau of Anomalous Biological Countermeasures Chapter 179: Clues
Being able to find the descendants of the Cui family in Jinling City is also uncertain. After all, it was a family from 15600 years ago. When I saw Guang Ti here, maybe she was passing by and happened to be seen by the guys from the Surabaya. Guang Ti has a quiet personality, and even if she returns, she doesn't dare to think that a person like her will stay in Jinling all the time.
The old guy wanted to try his luck first. If he couldn't find the descendants of the Cui family, he could only try his luck using the alchemist's method of contacting his sect. However, Guangti had deliberately avoided her former classmates for so many years. It is estimated that even if she knew that she would not return to Jinling, she would not show up to meet him.
What I didn't expect was that the little follower's arrangement to find the descendants of the Cui family soon came to an end. In less than an hour, he brought a local boy from the Surabaya ship to find Wu Mian, who did not return. Pointing at the young man, he said, "It's better to be sad for the old gods. The man in the shop is surnamed Cui... You talk to the fairy..."
The little guy timidly saluted Wu Mian, Gui Bugui, and the two monsters, and said, "I heard that some of your distinguished guests are looking for the descendants of the Cui family in Jinling back then? My name is Cui Rengui, and I am Cui Yu, the head of the family back then. The forty-sixth generation grandson. Now there are more than 300 people living in Jinling according to the genealogy, and there are more than 1,000 men surnamed Cui in the surrounding counties. There are also 36 side branches scattered all over the place. Yes, but the clan's magic has been lost, if you want to find the clan leader, I will bring him here now."
"The patriarch's business is not busy. I have a few words to ask you, old man." When he spoke, Gui Bugui smiled and took out a tael of golden barley and stuffed it into the boy's hand. Then he continued: "I'll ask the old man, did Cui Yu, the patriarch of the Cui family, have any ancestral houses left? Think about it carefully, thinking about the old man, I still have a lot of business."
"Old man, do you know when our ancestor Cui Yu was from? People from more than a thousand years ago, there are houses that have been handed down for more than a thousand years, and they have long since become flat." The little guy Cui Rengui tightly Holding the gold in his hand, he took a deep breath and continued: "The current ancestral house was handed down from the time of Tang Zhongzong, and the current patriarch lived in it. If you meet our patriarch, then I can bring it with you. Go see him."
I was not disappointed to hear that there was no ancestral home from the Cui Yu period. The old guy also tried his luck. Maybe after the descendant of the Cui family gained power hundreds of years ago, he recreated the ancestral house in the heyday of the family?
Although there is no news about the ancestral house, but now the chief of the Cui family has to see if he returns or not. At the moment, the old guy pulled Wu Mian and brought two monsters to follow Cui Rengui to the front of an old house in the east of Jinling City. The little guy went first to report it, and then took these people into the old house together.
After sitting in the middle hall for a while, I saw an old man in his sixties coming out of the back hall. With the help of Cui Rengui, the old man sat on the throne opposite Wu Mian and Gui Bugui, and glanced at the four strange-looking 'people' in front of him. Holding an air, he said: "Listen to Rengui, several distinguished guests want to see me, an old man? I don't know what is the relationship between the distinguished guests and our Cui family? And the repayment of kindness? The old Cui Zhong is not the current Cui family. The patriarch of..."
"Patriarch Cui..." After returning home with a smile, he continued: "We are all friends of Cui Yu, the former patriarch of Your Excellency. We happened to pass by Jinling, so we came to see Brother Cui's...="
"Naughty! Bold... You dare to call yourself a friend of the ancestor of Cui Yu, do you know how old he is if he lives now? More than 1,500 years old!" Cui Zhong blushed , was about to yell at a few people.
At this time, two ingots of horseshoe gold came out of Guibugui's arms. In front of Cui Zhong, who was already looking straight at him, he placed two ingots of gold on the table. The old guy hasn't spoken yet, Cui Zhong's tone has changed. The old man stared at the horseshoe gold in front of him, and said to Cui Rengui: "What are you still doing, go to pour tea for the distinguished guests. Don't use the ones in the cabinet, find your grandma, she has this year's new tea..."
Seeing that the old man seemed to have changed, he smiled and said, "Old man, we are alchemists who went to sea with Master Xu Fu, and we just returned to land. When we passed by here, we remembered the old brother Cui. , so I came over to see if I could find his descendants. I didn't expect to find it, I wonder if it would be convenient for him to visit Brother Cui's tablet?"
At this time, the Cui family had already fallen into disrepair. Although Cui Zhong had the title of a patriarch, he had no money to make a living. That is to say, during the festivals, when the nearby clansmen come to visit him, they will send some money over, and relying on this side to help for a year is ten thousand and eight consistent. Now there are sixty taels of gold in the two big ingots. He secretly calculated it in his heart, and at least he can exchange for 1,800 pieces of money. The dog is the second half of his generation...
Hearing that Gui Bugui was going to visit Cui Yu's tablet, the old man hurriedly arranged it himself. He took Wu Mian, Gui Bugui, and the two monsters to the ancestral hall not far from the ancestral house. After walking in, he saw that the hall was densely filled with the spiritual seats of the ancestors of the Cui clan.
At the moment, Gui Bugui pretended to put incense on Cui Yu's tablet, and then said to Cui Zhong: "Old man, I still remember one thing, when Cui Yu was alive, he once asked King Qi's painter to give the tablet to Cui Yu. He took a portrait, and I don't know if the portrait is still there. I plan to see things and think about people, and look at Cui Yu's voice and smile...
Cui Zhong was a little embarrassed when he heard that the old guy in front of him wanted to see Cui Yu's portrait. Then he accompanied the smiling face and said to Guibugui: "The old portrait has long been lost. After all, it is something from more than a thousand years ago. Please forgive me."
"That's okay. Originally, it seemed that I was meeting Brother Cui Yu. If that's the case, then forget it. We're already satisfied to see Brother Cui Yulai this time." Gui Bugui smiled and turned to walk behind him. go. Seeing that these weirdos wouldn't give any more money, Cui Zhong instructed Cui Rengui to send them away, while he carefully collected the two ingots of gold.
After walking out of the ancestral house, Cui Rengui suddenly said to Wu Mian and Gui Bugui: "Several immortals, don't listen to our patriarch's nonsense, what is lost, he sold the portrait of Cui Yu's ancestor when he was young To a fair-haired fairy. He didn't tell the truth..."
"He didn't tell the truth, you can tell the little baby. I'm not a stingy old man. If anyone tells the truth, the old man will give him gold." Two ingots of gold. It looked at least ten taels heavier than the one that Cui Zhong had just given. After putting the two emperors into the hands of the young man, the old man continued: "Then, in the past few years, I have met Cui Yu's Mingshou and Death Ji, has anyone come here to give him incense?"
“Your old man is really a living god, and you can count this.” After Cui Rengui collected the gold, he continued: “From the time I can remember, every time when Cui Yu’s ancestor was born and died, he would always A fairy with a white head came here to pay homage to Cui Yu's ancestors. A few years ago, when I was a child, I caught up with that fairy to come to pay homage. I remember clearly that at that time she claimed to be Cui Yu's widow... "
When they heard the news, Wu Mian and Gui Bugui glanced at each other, and then the old guy smiled and continued: "Then do you remember where the fairy went? Cui Rengui, if you can take us to find that If you are a fairy's shelter, this little thing is yours."
While speaking, Guibugui took out a small bag of gems from his arms, opened the bag in front of the young man, let him take a look, and continued: "If you can take us to know the fairies, Everything in here is yours."
The boy's eyes straightened. After thinking about it for a while, he pulled the sleeve of the unreturnable shirt and said on the mountain opposite Zizhe: "The fairy lives there
