Chapter 1135 Xiao Family Patriarch
Regarding the ins and outs of the congratulatory gift, Ji Tianxing has already figured it out.
Only then did he realize that this matter was actually an oolong.
The relationship between Xiao Han and Long Zaitian was not good, but out of face, he gave a 'worthless' congratulatory gift.
Long Zaitian also understood this, and thought that gift was very ordinary, so he took it out at the birthday banquet as a prize.
But no one expected that this 'worthless' gift would fall into his hands in the end.
He unlocked the seal of the treasure box, only to find that it contained the priceless treasure star cinnabar.
Both Long Zaitian and Xiao Han regretted it very much, but he became the lucky one.
However, he has already got the star sand, and if he wants to use this material to recast the Broken Sword in the future, it is absolutely impossible to return it to Xiao Han.
Xiao Han was also very sensible, and had no intention of asking him to return the star sand.
But the main purpose of Ji Tianxing's coming to find Xiao Han is to understand the origin of the treasure box.
He had to get to the bottom of it, trace back to the source and ask clearly.
"My lord, to be honest, only I can crack the sealing formation of that mysterious treasure box, it is very important to me.
Please recall carefully, what is the origin of that treasure box, and who made it? "
Seeing his serious expression, Xiao Han frowned and recalled carefully.
After a long while, he recalled the events of that year, and said in a deep voice: "When the elders of the family presented the treasure box to me, they said that the treasure box was the treasure of our Xiao family ancestors.
I also investigated and inquired afterwards, and it is said that the treasure box was found in the secret room of the ancestor of the Xiao family.
However, our ancestors of the Xiao family did not leave any news about the treasure box, nor did they explain what was inside. "
"Old Patriarch of the Xiao Family?" Ji Tianxing raised his brows, and asked tentatively, "My lord, the sealing formation on the treasure box was performed by the Patriarch of the Xiao Family?
That treasure box has a thousand-year history, that is to say, the ancestor of the Xiao family was a strong man thousands of years ago? "
Xiao Han frowned and thought about it for a while, then nodded and said: "The ancestor of our Xiao family was indeed a strong man thousands of years ago.
But whether that treasure box was sealed by the ancestor, no one knows except the ancestor. "
Ji Tianxing nodded slightly, thinking to himself: "At the beginning, the Palace Master told me that the four followers of the Sword God were Gu Ye Xiaoshui.
I found Ye Huang before, and I proved that these four characters are the surnames of four followers.
If the ancestor of the Xiao family is also a follower of the Sword God, it just confirms Gu Ye Xiaoshui's Xiao character.
At the same time, it can also explain why the formation that sealed the treasure box was created by the Sword God.
As long as it can be confirmed that the formation on the treasure box was sealed by the ancestor of the Xiao family, everything will be solved easily. "
After analysis, he already guessed the answer in his heart.
So, he asked Xiao Han: "My lord, would you take the liberty to ask, after a thousand years, is the ancestor of the Xiao family still alive?"
"This..." Xiao Han hesitated and hesitated, silent and refused to answer.
Ji Tianxing guessed what he was thinking, and said sincerely: "My lord, to tell you the truth, I knew about your background before I came to Wuyue City.
Of course, I investigate your information without any malice, I just want to know about the ancestors of the Xiao family.
I found out the news about the Xiao Clan, and I know that the Xiao Clan is an ancient family that cannot be hidden from the world, and I also know that the Xiao Clan is the pillar of the human race, and they are absolutely loyal to the human race and the imperial court. "
Hearing what he said, Xiao Han's expression changed, and after thinking for a while, he nodded and said: "That's right, the Xiao clan lives in seclusion, does not get involved in the power disputes on the mainland, and has always kept a low profile.
However, the imperial courts of various clans and the top aristocratic families on the mainland all know the existence of the Xiao clan.
With your power and status, Mr. Ji, it is normal to be able to find information about the Xiao Clan.
Now that you know everything, I will not hide it from you, the ancestor of the Xiao family is the founder of the Xiao family.
My family's ancestors have lived for thousands of years so far, and they should still be alive in this world.
However, the ancestor has long been indifferent to fame and wealth, ignored worldly affairs, and lived in seclusion for countless years.
Even the Xiao Clan's family affairs, the ancestors have not asked about it for two or three hundred years.
To be honest, since I left the Xiao clan and came to Zhongzhou, I haven't seen the ancestor for hundreds of years, and I don't know his movements.
This seat is also not sure whether the ancestor is still in the clan. "
Xiao Han paused, took a deep look at Ji Tianxing, and said solemnly: "Mr. Ji, if you want to find my ancestor, I advise you to give up this plan.
The Xiao Clan lived in seclusion, and never participated in power disputes, nor did they want to get involved with the world.
Except for the Xiao Clan's children, outsiders are absolutely not allowed to enter the Xiao Clan, even the Son of Heaven and the Prince of the Imperial Court are no exception. "
Ji Tianxing was silent for a while, then stood up, and said to him solemnly: "My lord, I understand what you mean.
But this matter is extremely important to me. Even if the hope is slim, I will try my best to meet him.
I also ask God General to do me a favor, let the Xiao family accommodate, or provide me with clues to find the ancestor of the Xiao family. "
After all, he bowed deeply to Xiao Han with a very sincere attitude.
"This..." Xiao Han hesitated immediately, the light in his eyes flickered, and he weighed and thought.
He thought for a long time in silence before he stood up and said to Ji Tianxing: "Young Master Ji, please get up quickly, I just promise you.
However, I cannot go against the precepts of my ancestors and take you to the Xiao Clan.
This seat can only convey the news for you, report the matter to the Xiao Clan, and let the elders of the Xiao Clan make the decision.
As for whether the ancestor is willing to see you, it is not up to you or me. "
Ji Tianxing heaved a sigh of relief, nodded with a smile and said, "Of course I understand this. I am extremely grateful for the Lord God General's willingness to help me."
Xiao Han nodded, and said solemnly: "So we have made a deal, and I will immediately send a message to report the whole story of this matter to the Xiao Clan.
Please return to Zhongzhou City temporarily, Mr. Ji, and wait for the news from me at ease.
Once this matter has a clue, I will send a message to inform you, and we will discuss the next action at that time, what do you think? "
"That's very good." Ji Tianxing nodded in agreement, bowed his hands and saluted, "Please don't bother me, I won't bother you anymore, and I'm going back to Zhongzhou."
"Young Master Ji, go slowly!" Xiao Han bowed his hand in return and sent him away from the City Lord's Mansion.
Afterwards, Ji Tianxing left Wuyue City, flew into the sky at high speed, and rushed back towards Zhongzhou City.
After he left, Xiao Han also returned to the study, took out a jade slip, and sent a summons to the Xiao clan.
Xiao Changyu stood aside respectfully, and after he sent out the jade slips, he couldn't wait to ask: "Father, why did Ji Tianxing come to you this time?
This person's reputation is too great, and he is a person who stirs up the situation in the world. If he wants to harm our Xiao family, it may cause trouble. "
Xiao Han shook his head, and said solemnly: "Chang Yu, although Ji Tianxing is domineering, he is also principled and will not act recklessly.
Moreover, he seems to have some relationship with the ancestor of our Xiao family, so it should not be detrimental to our Xiao family. "
