After Wu Hua heard Chen Zhi's request, she didn't react for a while and looked at Chen Zhi with wide eyes.
"What did you say?
You..., you want to dig up my ancestral grave?
Want to exhume the bodies of my ancestors?
You..., do you mean this?"
"Yes! That's right!"
Chen Zhi nodded seriously, picked up the red marriage certificate, pointed to the last name on the message and said:
"I want to find this person's body. From these words, I can infer that the relationship between your family and the nobility should have started with this person named Wu Changlu.
He must have some kind of ability that ordinary people don't have, or he may be favored by the nobles because he is blessed to live in this place.
So much so that the daughter of a nobleman was given a large dowry to marry into his family, and the Wu family could breed blood with his son, hoping that the Wu family would be their gatekeeper from now on.
Although the marriage did not take place later, the decision was not taken lightly at that time. It was a major decision that was carefully considered.
The complete memory of this incident must have been deeply retained in Wu Changlu's mind.
Even though nearly a thousand years have passed and his body has turned into a skeleton, I can still get relevant information from his remains.
Only then can we know what those so-called nobles are...
Do you want to know who the person who killed your mother was?
I just need you to help me find Wu Changlu’s grave and dig out his body.”,
After Chen Zhi finished speaking, he leaned down and leaned towards Wu Hua and said softly,
"I know the rules of you mountain people. Each family has its own ancestral grave. If there is no war, the ancestral grave will not be moved easily.
If I guessed correctly, your ancestor’s grave should still be in your ancestral cemetery!
It’s around here, right?”
"this……",
When Wu Hua heard this, she was obviously hesitant. Her eyes were wandering and the expression on her face was very difficult.
"Sister, I know you are in trouble,"
Chen Zhi squatted down and put the marriage certificate in her hand, grabbed her arm sincerely and continued:
"I know that digging ancestral graves is a treasonous act for us Chinese, especially the people in the mountains are very traditional. I heard that women here are not allowed to visit the graves.
With your current status, it is very difficult for us to do this...
But eldest sister, you are someone who has studied in the city. You should understand that after death, there is only a corpse, which does not represent the honor of your ancestors.
Most cities in the city send the bodies of their deceased relatives to funeral parlors for cremation. Is this disrespectful to their relatives?
Compared to corpses, living people are more meaningful!
Now that we have reached this point and need to solve this mystery, we must do this.
Otherwise, as you said, your mother will die in an unknown manner, and if you are not careful in the future, you may also be killed, without even knowing by whose hands she died.
Believe me, this possibility is very high..."
"how about you?
What do you want to get?",
As expected, Wu Hua was not a fool. She immediately looked at Chen Zhi and asked:
"If I guess correctly, you are doing it for that formula, right?
Judging from the marriage certificate, my ancestor knew the entrance formula to the secret realm, and he didn't tell anyone after his death.
Your goal is to obtain the formula and enter the secret realm, right?"
"Yes!" Chen Zhi was not prepared to lie to her, and answered very directly and affirmatively,
"I speculate that the entrance to the secret realm is the well on the mountain.
That well is definitely not simple. The internal structure is more like a ladder, but you can't see the depth inside from the surface. It has been shifted by space...
This kind of enclosed special space is impossible to enter without a separate formula!
Judging from your memory, you should have met those nobles when you were a child, and then you were thrown into the well, and then they sent you back~~
They don't want to spare your life, but they plan to go to your home later and wipe out your whole family.
But your mother tried her best to send you out at that time.
I don't know what she saw at the last moment, but in short, she saved your life, but she herself hung from the rafter.
Later, perhaps for some reason, or perhaps there was an accident along the way, these nobles did not go after you.
But this kind of luck will not last a lifetime!
Do you think they will let you go?
Don't be too naive!!
They just haven't arrived yet~~
No matter you get married and have children in the future, you and your family will definitely die!"
"This..." After Wu Hua heard this, she realized the seriousness of the matter. She grabbed the corner of her clothes tightly, sweat slowly dripping from her forehead.
At this time, I heard Chen Zhi continue to say,
“If you want to get rid of this crisis forever, just deal with this matter!!
Believe me!
I can help you solve it!"
………………
For the next time, Wu Hua fell into deep silence.
As Chen Zhi said, digging up ancestral graves in the mountains is a big deal.
In the early days of reform and opening up, the country called for the resumption of land and the construction of forest farms, but many old residents encountered the problem of their ancestral homes.
At that time, the mountains were relatively closed, and some shady houses covered an extremely large area, with a family occupying almost half of the mountain.
But when the country was cleaning up, the descendants of these families resisted almost to the death and refused to listen to anything they said.
Moreover, some village cadres used knives and guns to cut off their arms and legs, which shows how much the Chinese people attach great importance to their ancestral graves.
As the last woman in the Wu family, Wu Hua is actually not qualified to visit the graves, let alone dig up her ancestors' graves.
Even if she could accept this kind of behavior, the people in the mountains would consider it a rebellious behavior, and it would not be easy to succeed.
But after Wu Hua thought about it quietly for half an hour, she finally raised her head, flicked her braid, and responded cheerfully.
"Okay, I promise you!
Tonight, you just take the shovel draft with me, and I will take you up the mountain to dig the ancestral graves of our Wu family~~"
Wu Hua is a straightforward woman. If she agrees to something, she really agrees to it.
So during the day, they began to prepare tools such as shovels and sacks for digging graves.
Digging graves has always been Pang Wei's job, and small graves on the mountain are not a problem for him.
He also carries a disassembled earth rolling pick with him. Once he finds the right place, he will probably be able to dig up the bones in a few strokes.
But Wu Hua told them that the real difficulty here was not to dig graves, but to be careful of the people in the surrounding villages.
Although most of this village has been relocated, it has been a filial village since ancient times, and the old residents usually keep a few people in the local area.
They visit the ancestral graves on the mountain every now and then to worship, and sometimes there are people guarding the tombs at night.
Moreover, the cemeteries of each family are very close to each other. If they break ground on the Wu family's mountain, it will be very serious if other families hear about it.
Although it may be the ancestral tomb of the Wu family, most people in this village are related to each other. Once discovered, these people with foreign surnames will definitely intervene...
