As the collective cemetery of the Zhang family, the Zhang family ancient building is hidden so secretly, for fear of being discovered by others, which obviously violates common sense.

Wuxie said immediately.

"Have you forgotten, the Zhang family's biggest secret is hidden in the Zhang family's ancient building, how can it be buried outside."

"There must be a purpose for them to do this."

The fat man scratched his scalp and said.

"Can't confidential things be hidden in another place? It's strange that they have to be put together with the ancestral grave."

Wu Xie thought for a while, but couldn't answer this question.

Everyone was also confused and looked at Ji Changsheng together.

Ji Changsheng thought for a moment, then said.

"The secret they want to protect may be related to these remains!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone couldn't help but look at each other, even the younger brother showed suspicion.

What secrets can a dead man have?

If the Zhang family has secrets that no one knows, then Zhang Qiling, as the patriarch, should be the first to bear the brunt of it!

It's a pity that he lost his memory, even if he had a secret, he couldn't remember it.

The fat man looked at the little brother, and said cautiously.

"Brother, I have an inappropriate proposal. If you don't think it's right, just treat it as my fart and don't take it to heart."

The little brother looked at the fat man and seemed to guess what he was thinking.

"You want to open the coffin for an autopsy?"

The fat man nodded.

"That's right, since your Zhang family's secret is related to these remains, why don't you just open it and have a look?"

"But this will offend the ancestors of the Zhang family. If you don't want to, just pretend I didn't say it."

The little brother didn't speak, and walked directly to a coffin.

A palm was slapped on the coffin lid, and the coffin lid opened in response.

Seeing this, the fat man couldn't help but secretly rejoiced, and said hastily.

"One research sample is probably not enough, we need to look at more samples, and I will help you."

After speaking, he took out the engineering shovel and began to pry the coffin. Of course, his mind was to open the coffin and make a fortune.

The little brother ignored the fat man's little thoughts, and just stared intently at the remains in the coffin.

Ji Changsheng stepped forward to take a look, but saw a male mummy in the coffin, wearing a mandarin jacket and long gown from the Qing Dynasty, with a hairstyle unique to the Qing Dynasty.

From the wooden sign in front of the coffin, it is known that this person was a teacher during the Qianlong period and had died for more than 200 years.

But the strange thing is that the corpse is extremely well preserved, without any sign of decay, it has become a dry corpse without moisture.

The little brother thought for a while, then stretched out his hand to look under the body, his expression changed slightly.

"No charcoal or lime."

Only in a dry environment, the corpse will become a mummified corpse.

However, the ancient building of the Zhang Family is located in a dark and humid huge cave. The environment here is not suitable for the production of mummified corpses. If it is not embalmed, the corpse will rot down to a pile of bones within three to five years.

So what happened to this mummy?

After thinking about it innocently, she said.

"I heard that if a monk is a monk, if he cultivates to the right fruit, his body will not rot. Could it be that this senior is a master of Taoism?"

The little brother squeezed the body, shook his head and said.

"Not like."

"Fatty, what about your situation?"

While they were observing the mummy, the fat man had already pried open two sets of coffins, and was groping for valuable treasures in the coffins.

Hearing what the little brother said, he was shocked and quickly replied.

"I'm doing fine here, I'm fine."

The little brother frowned.

"I'm asking about the corpse!"

The fat man wiped off his cold sweat, looked at the corpse, and said.

"A man and a woman, two mummified corpses, it seems that they were buried together as husband and wife."

Turning his head to look at the wooden sign again, he showed a puzzled expression again.

"Why are these two couples named Zhang?"

When Ji Changsheng heard this, he immediately ordered.

"Look at some more and choose randomly."

Everyone immediately started to move their hands, with a hammer here and a mallet here, and dozens of coffins were opened, making a mess of this floor.

In the end, without exception, all of them were mummy!

This situation confirmed Ji Changsheng's guess that the Zhang family's secret was related to these corpses!

After thinking for a while, the little brother cupped his hands at the corpse in the coffin and said silently.

"Zhang Qiling offended."

After finishing speaking, he reached out and took out the mummy from the coffin, and observed it carefully.

But I saw that this was a man in his 50s. Although he had turned into a mummy, it could be seen that when he was alive, he had a burly figure and slender limbs.

After a closer look, Wu Xie found a clue.

"Brother, this man's right index finger and middle finger are the same as yours."

The two fingers of the little brother are very long, which is very different from ordinary people, and it can be seen at a glance.

Fatty also called out.

"The Zhang family are all the same, they all have very long fingers!"

Everyone felt very strange about this discovery.

Could it be caused by Zhang family's unique genetics?

But this kind of speculation is obviously unreliable. The Zhang family is a huge family, and the number of members scattered across the country is unknown.

After thousands of years, even if the Zhang family has special genetics, the blood of the descendants will gradually be weakened due to the intermarriage of generations.

How could it remain unchanged for thousands of years!

At this time, Fatty made another surprising discovery.

"Those dozen or so couples were buried together, and all of them are named Zhang!"

In other words, the Zhang family will only intermarry with the Zhang family!

However, close marriages will cause many genetic diseases in the offspring. Why does the Zhang family maintain such a tradition?

Ji Changsheng looked at his little brother and said softly.

"The answer lies in the unique blood of the Zhang family!"

In order not to let the blood of the Zhang family spread to the outside world, they can only intermarry internally!

In other words, the secrets of the Zhang family are hidden in their blood!

But here comes the problem. As we all know, Master Zhang's wife is Yin Xinyue, not the Zhang family.

Ji Changsheng looked up at the stairs in the distance.

"If you want to know the final answer, go up and take a look."

In this first floor, apart from more than 1000 coffins and mummies, there are no other clues.

So, people followed Ji Changsheng up the stairs to the second floor.

The second floor is not much different from the first floor, except that the area is smaller, and there are about seven or eight hundred coffins.

Everyone stepped forward to check, but found no other clues, so they went to the third floor.

When they reached the third floor, hundreds of separate rooms appeared before them.

Each room is seven or eight square meters in size, and a coffin is placed inside, which is higher than the two floors below.

Chapter 321 Aning Has a Bold Idea

The area of ​​the third floor was even smaller, and it was divided into hundreds of small rooms, each of which contained a coffin.

The shape and wood of these coffins are higher than those below.

When the fat man saw it, he couldn't help saying immediately.

"Mr. Ji, I understand."

"The greater the contribution they make, the higher the level of burial, right?"

Ji Changsheng nodded in agreement with his statement, and let everyone disperse to find clues.

He came to a coffin by himself, opened the lid, and there was still a mummy inside.

However, this mummy is better preserved, the wrinkles on the skin are faintly visible, and even the general appearance of the corpse owner can be seen.

Looking at the wooden sign in front of the coffin, this wooden sign is more elaborate and larger.

There is such a passage written on it.

"Zhang Diancang, a native of Hanyang, Hubei. During the reign of Tianqi, he served as the chief supervisor of Sitian. The twelve methods of celestial phenomena written by him will be permanently preserved by the Zhang family. For his meritorious service, he will be bestowed on the three heavens."

Ji Changsheng couldn't help but change his expression, he was actually a court eunuch of the Ming Dynasty!

The Zhangjia Ancient Building was built more than 100 years ago, and the people buried there are all ancient people from two or three hundred years ago.
