Chapter 1595 Gravekeeper
A monk came quickly, with his toga and sleeves swaying in the wind, his face was upright and upright, his earlobes and shoulders looked strange, and there was a hint of worry between his brows.
Zhou Shu took a few steps forward, smiled and cupped his hands, "It is rumored that Duke Xuande has inherited the heritage of his ancestors and is praised by others. Seeing him today, he really deserves his reputation."
That monk is Liu Xuande, the Patriarch of the Liu family. He approached and bowed his hands to return the salute with a smile on his face, but that smile did not distract his heart, "I don't know that He Yin sent Master Zhou to come. I am far away from welcoming you. It is really not polite. I still look forward to Haihan."
Zhou Shu smiled and shook his head, "Xuande's words are serious."
"Sovereign, since you have something important to do, please come in and talk about it."
Liu Xuande raised his hand seemingly indifferently, and walked into the group of hills first.
In Wuzhangyuan, the four seasons are like autumn, and the wind is cold and bleak all day long. The further you go, the stronger the wind, and the more tragic the song.
Zhou Shu looked around, frowned thoughtfully, Liu Xuande saw Zhou Shu's actions, with a trace of disdain in his eyes, and said slowly, "The suzerain has been in the bustling city for a long time, I'm afraid he doesn't want to come to us Come to this bitter cold place, hehe."
Zhou Shu shook his head with a smile, "Of course not. I have heard elegiac songs in a tragic place. Duke Zhuge has been here for thousands of years and will be passed down through the ages. I actually admire him very much."
Liu Xuande was slightly stunned, "Admiration, why can't the old man see it?"
Zhou Shu smiled and said, "Hehe, this Wuzhangyuan belongs to the Liu family of Duke Xuande. If I show my admiration for Zhuge's family here, it will be disrespectful."
"This is the Liu family..."
Liu Xuande looked condensed, glanced at Zhou Shu, and said in a serious voice, "The Liu family and the Zhuge family are like a family. No matter how much the suzerain praises the Zhuge family here, the old man will not feel disrespectful, but very happy..."
Zhou Shu looked at him with piercing eyes, "Anyway, Duke Xuande has heard too much, so he doesn't care anymore, right?"
Liu Xuande's heart trembled slightly, and a surge of anger surged up unconsciously, and he said in a deep voice, "The suzerain can say it if he wants to, and he doesn't say it if he doesn't want to, and the old man doesn't care."
"Hehe, don't be upset, Duke Xuande."
Zhou Shu waved his hand and said with a faint smile, "This matter is not up to you, but Mr. Xuande, I don't know one thing."
Liu Xuande stroked his beard and said slowly, "The old man won't be angry, just ask the suzerain if you have anything to do."
Zhou Shu paused, "I heard that the Liu family's ancestor Ditun County is also in Zhongzhou, and Natun County is also a prosperous holy place. , instead of going to Wuzhang?"
Liu Xuande glanced at Zhou Shu, and snorted mockingly, "The suzerain really knows my Liu family very well."
Zhou Shu showed a bit of emotion, "Of course, the Liu family can also be regarded as the emperor of Zhongzhou. Since the origin of human beings, the Liu family has left a rich and colorful legacy. It set up the banner of rejuvenating Zhongzhou, resisted alien races with mortal bodies, took the lead in fighting against evil spirits, and made great achievements. Many major events, as long as a cultivator remembers history, he will never forget the achievements of the Liu family, and I have also admired the Liu family for a long time."
Thinking of his ancestors, Liu Xuande also felt quite turbulent, and his tone gradually eased, "It's all in the past, it's rare that the suzerain still remembers it."
"Of course I remember," Zhou Shu nodded, but his tone suddenly changed, "It's a pity that today, the Liu family can only stick to Wuzhangyuan and cannot return to the ancestral land to worship their ancestors. It is really sad and deplorable."
Liu Xuande's face darkened immediately, looking at Zhou Shu, he didn't know how to refute.
Zhou Shu shook his head, "Since the fall of Zhongzhou, Pu County has suffered several catastrophes, and now it has been completely overthrown, and it will never regain its former glory..."
"say no more!"
Liu Xuande's face turned dark, he looked at Zhou Shu and said, "What's the matter with the suzerain here?"
Zhou Shu smiled and did not answer, and pointed to a lonely mountain in front of him, "Mr. Xuande, this mountain should be called Pushan, right?"
Liu Xuande looked at the mountain, with a lot of nostalgia in his eyes, and said in a gentle voice, "Yes, it is Pushan, where the ancestor Liu Tu rebelled, revived Zhongzhou, and founded the ancient Shu Kingdom, which is the root of my Liu family .”
Zhou Shu sighed, "Unfortunately, this is not Pushan in Pu County, nor is it the real birthplace of the Liu family, but the Liu family built it later by themselves. There is no trace of ancient Shu at all, it just looks like it. "
"It's enough."
Liu Xuande's heart was shocked, and he said in a deep voice, "The suzerain didn't come here to expose the scars of my Liu family, did he?"
"Of course not, I just hope that Duke Xuande still remembers those things in the past."
Zhou Shu looked indifferent, and continued, "Pun County was robbed for the first time, and the Liu family's protection power was insufficient, so they asked for help from the Zhuge family, but the Zhuge family did not arrive, and the Liu family's ancestral land was destroyed. Fortunately, a stranger came to help, and the Liu family was saved. Otherwise, the Liu family will be overthrown and extinct..."
Liu Xuande's body trembled slightly, but he was speechless.
Zhou Shu said calmly, "Later, the Liu family was rebuilt, but the nightmare came again not long after. This time, the Zhuge family still did not come, and most of the ancestral land was destroyed again. The Liu family was reluctant to leave, so they had to rebuild again. Decades later , was attacked again, this time the Zhuge family came, but it was too late, the Liu family has become ruins..."
Liu Xuande stared at Zhou Shu, the muscles on his face trembling.
Zhou Shu just ignored it, and said slowly, "At this time, Patriarch Zhuge said that Pu County is in danger, and there are always people intruding. It is really not suitable for living and practicing. He advises the Liu family to stay in Wuzhangyuan with peace of mind, and don't go back to the ancestral land. Before the head of the Liu family agreed, the head of the Zhuge family had already pulled out the spirit vein of the porpoise county and moved it to Wuzhangyuan. Naturally, the Liu family had no time to stop it with such a powerful method, so they had to accept such kindness, but by this time, Pun county was completely over... ..."
"shut up!"
Liu Xuande's sleeves puffed up, his hair pointed like fingers, his anger was uncontrollable, and he said sharply, "How do you know these things?"
Zhou Shu was unmoved and stared into the distance, "Many people know these old news, so do I, but I am different, I still know the hidden truth, but not many people know, but I want to be as smart as Xuande Lord, you must know."
Liu Xuande trembled and almost fell, "You... what else do you know?"
Zhou Shu sighed softly, "Actually, the robbery in Pujun was driven by an aristocratic family. Their purpose of doing this is to let your Liu family leave Pujun completely, guard Wuzhangyuan forever, and do things for them. Gravekeeper for eternity."
"The gravekeeper, our Liu family, is the gravekeeper..."
Having been poked into the heart that had been hidden for tens of thousands of years, Liu Xuande suddenly felt weak all over, and his eyes dimmed, as if he had aged several hundred years.
Zhou Shu stared at him, and said with emotion, "Yes, you are the gravekeepers. You were their lords, but now, you have to be their gravekeepers for generations. They set up ceremonies and gave everything, but when they wanted to worship their ancestors, they couldn't even find an inch of land, which is really sad."
