When Ye Shitian arrived, a business Mercedes-Benz parked right in front of Zhu Mao's front room.
A clan is more mysterious than a martial arts family. In the final analysis, a martial arts family has a certain relationship with the secular world. There are also shadows of a martial arts family in many places.
Whether it is the government or the business community, just like the Lei family, they have many companies in Yandu.
Although the place where they live is not in the urban area, it is not far away, and people like Lei Xun also have a certain amount of power in the official circles.
But the clan is different. The clan is completely different from normal people's life. In the secular world, you can't see it at all.
Brother and sister Ye Shitian and Zhu Mao were sitting in the Mercedes-Benz commercial vehicle and driving out of the city.
There are high mountains around Mengcheng, and the final destination of this Mercedes-Benz commercial vehicle is a big mountain.
Ye Shitian saw that there were no other cars on the mountain road where the car was. The mountain road was steep and there were many trees nearby. There were no accurate roads in some places. It could be said that the car was always traveling through the mountain forest.
Zhu Mao explained to Ye Shitian that many clans have agreements with the government. If the clan is not born, the government also promises not to disturb them, so that the clan can develop better. As for why the two parties reached such an agreement, Zhu Mao does not know.
.
The mountain road they are walking on is unexplored and no one is allowed to enter.
More than ten minutes later, Ye Shitian looked out the window again and found that he was already halfway up the mountain. The mountain road here was very difficult to walk, and the vehicles were bumping all the time.
Zhu Mao said to Ye Shitian: "Brother Ye, you are also a member of the clan. You should know how long the clan has existed. What is recorded in many ancient books is not fiction. Our Zhu family was a royal family in the past, and that was our most glorious
In those days, there was a saying that it was better to offend the Lord of Hell than the Zhu family of the Zhu family."
After Zhu Mao said his last words, a look of pride filled his face. Unfortunately, the glory of the Zhu family back then no longer exists now.
When Zhu Mao spoke, Ye Shitian didn't interrupt and just listened quietly. What he needed now was to know the news about the clan. He really knew very little about the clan.
Zhu Mao continued: "Unlike the Zheng family in North China, the Zheng family likes to spread its branches and leaves. Even now, the Zheng family clan members are all over the Xia Kingdom. Our Zhu family, even when it was the most glorious, was still deep and simple. Now
Even more so, only when cultivating the next generation will the clan members be allowed to go out and explore."
Ye Shitian frowned and asked in confusion: "Many martial arts families are married, don't you want to marry?
Do you want the clansmen to leave?"
Zhu Mao smiled bitterly and said: "Brother Ye, you don't know something. Although the Zhu family was famous in the past, they only lived in their own world and were unwilling to make friends with others, and they disdained to associate with evil ways, so friends did not
There are many, but now, there are even fewer."
"Everyone is trying their best to keep the family alive. Who would do such a thing as a marriage? The current marriage is self-destruction."
Ye Shitian nodded after hearing this. It was indeed true. If the population was really declining, marriage would be a form of self-destruction.
"You, the Zhu family, live in the mountains?"
Ye Shitian looked at the direction of the car and asked.
"Yep."
Zhu Mao nodded and said: "Our Zhu family mainly uses hidden weapons. The reason why we can survive today is because of our geographical advantages and the secret protection of countless agencies. How many agencies are there in the Zhu family? Even we don't know."
You know, only the old patriarch can control it, otherwise our Zhu family would have declined long ago."
After Zhu Mao finished speaking, he began to sigh.
Ye Shitian saw that the car he was in drove into a cave. The cave was very hidden. There was a string of vines on the mountain wall, blocking the entrance of the cave. It was impossible to push the vines away manually, even by driving.
You have to force your way in, but if you don't know there is a hidden cave here, you will drive your car in unless you want to die.
The car was driving in the dark cave. After about ten minutes, Ye Shitian calculated the time and speed of the car, which was enough to conclude that the car had reached the belly of the mountain.
The darkness lasted for too long, and suddenly a bright light came on, which made Ye Shitian feel uncomfortable.
The driver seemed to have been prepared for it, and drove out in the bright light.
Zhu Mao, who was sitting next to Ye Shitian, smiled and said, "Welcome, Brother Ye, to Zhujiapu!"
After the car stopped, Ye Shitian saw a village that was completely developed within the mountains. The top of the mountains was not sealed off, and the sun shone in along the mouth of the gorge.
The villages in front of us are all built of wood and stone. The clothes worn by the people here are very different from the outside world. They are all antique costumes. If any Hanfu enthusiasts come in, they will be extremely excited.
Ye Shitian got off the car, and Zhu Mao and his sister followed suit.
When they saw Zhu Mao, a person on the mountain opposite blew a whistle hard. The whistle lingered in the valley. Everyone in the valley looked at Zhu Mao, and then focused on Ye Shitian.
Three ropes were thrown at Ye Shitian's feet. These ropes were hung on the mountain wall. Now on the platform where Ye Shitian is standing, if you want to enter the valley, you must rely on the ropes to slide. This is also a threshold in the clan. No point.
A powerful person cannot even enter the gate of the clan.
Ye Shitian took a look and saw that the platform he was on was about thirty meters above the ground. Ordinary people would feel weak in their legs just by looking at their feet.
"Brother Ye, let's go."
Zhu Mao smiled lightly, pulled up the rope, jumped up, and slid down.
Zhu Yan also picked up the rope and jumped down lightly.
Ye Shitian glanced around. In the valley, he felt a kind of crisis. This came from Ye Shitian's sixth sense of being on the edge of life and death all year round. Ye Shitian was sure that there must be a large number of mechanisms hidden in the seemingly normal mountain walls around him.
At a height of thirty meters, Ye Shitian didn't even use the rope, walked directly to the edge of the platform and jumped.
Ye Shitian could see that these three ropes were just a warning given to him by the Zhu family, and Ye Shitian also wanted to give a warning to the Zhu family. Now that he was in the clan, Ye Shitian was not sure what would happen.
Perhaps Zhu Mao, who greeted him with a smile just now, would slash at him with a knife the next second. After all, Ye Shitian had experienced too many such things.
Therefore, the deterrence of force is very necessary. Ye Shitian came here not to look for trouble, but to sincerely seek cooperation. Now that he has learned about the mysterious clan, the improvement of the strength of Ditian Island is imminent.
