Chapter 191

Along the way, Han Sheng told Gu An a lot about Han Laocai.

Back then, Han Laocai was a famous figure in Hanjia Village. Because he had a lot of money and land, he was naturally rich and powerful and contributed the most when building the ancestral hall and perfecting the family tree.

In the same way, because of the great effort, in many respects, he more or less beautifies himself.

However, there were quite a few shrewd people at that time, more or less, some had conscience, and some were jealous. They calculated each other behind their backs and passed word of mouth. Records have also undergone some changes.

No longer just a big benevolent person in the village, but a landowner who cheated people without blood.

Gu An listened carefully to Han Sheng's explanation along the way, and finally asked: "Apart from these, is there any special record?"

special record?
After hearing this, Han Sheng was silent for a while, frowning, as if he was remembering.

Then he thought for a while and said: "There are some, I don't know if they are special records, but the main reason is that Mr. Gu opened the box and found the diary inside, otherwise I wouldn't connect the two... ..."

"I remember some village journals saying that Han Laocai seemed to be looking for immortals who could refine the elixir of immortality everywhere...he sent many of his fellows out of the village to help find him, saying that no matter how much it cost, he was willing to seek immortality medicine……"

"It seems that a Taoist priest really came, but the name and characteristics of the Taoist priest were not recorded at that time. I guess based on the diary's guess, it should be the one who came from Longhu Mountain at that time?"

"Afterwards, there were no other records. I don't know. Maybe it was recorded elsewhere in the village chronicle, but I didn't check it. Because Mr. Gu, you came, so I came out early to wait you……"

Han Sheng intermittently told all he could recall in one breath.

Gu An listened carefully, especially when he heard the elixir of life, his brows frowned instantly.

This Han Laocai is really a fool with a lot of money, a landowner still delusional to find the elixir of life?You are an emperor, and you can't find the elixir of life with all the efforts of the country. Do you, a landowner, think that you have more money than the emperor?Has a wider network than the emperor?
In this regard, Gu An can only think that Han Laocai is too afraid of death, even if he knows it is fake, but he still has a little luck in his heart, thinking about trying hard, even if he fails, it’s okay, after all, he is dead, I can't take the money with me.

Gu An speculated on Han Laocai's thoughts and thoughts at the time, and at the same time thought of the guy in the pit, the zombie king's spirit tablet had Han Laocai's name written on it.

If it is really Han Laocai, then becoming a zombie king is actually another way to live forever?

Then who turned Han Laocai into this?
If Han Laocai himself heard that he became a zombie, he probably would not be very willing. It is estimated that the person who cast the spell deceived him and said that there is a slight chance that he can really live forever...

Then Han Laocai believed it...

In the end, it became what it is now...

While thinking about it, Gu An asked Han Sheng next to him: "Is there something like a gold ring on that Han Laocai's neck?"

Han Sheng thought about it for a while, then shook his head: "I wish I hadn't seen this in the village annals. We can ask the people in it later. They have been looking through the materials, and maybe they can find something."

Gu An nodded, and didn't say any more. Han Sheng knew very little, so he had to wait and ask those who were still checking after he went in.

Soon, under Han Sheng's guidance, Gu An followed him and went directly to the study.

This study room is where Han Ge usually reads and rests. This time, in order to find what Gu An wants more conveniently and quickly, this study room, which usually does not allow outsiders to enter, is directly opened.

Han Ge is always a book lover, and the study room is very large. At this time, about a dozen middle-aged people, both men and women, are sitting around a long table, carefully reading the village chronicles in their hands.

Not only the village chronicles, but also the books left by the old people in the village, although they may not be of much use.

But maybe an old man happened to see what happened in the village back then, so he drew and graffitied casually, and it might become an important detail.

In the house, beside the long table, men and women are seriously looking down at the information, with pens and paper in their hands.

They are all professionals invited by Mr. Han Ge, and they are the best at these things. They only need to give a little hint, and they can dig deep into it.

These people also knew that Gu An was a big shot, even bigger than Mr. Han Ge, so they didn't dare to be negligent, and they all looked carefully at the village chronicles in their hands.

"Mr. Gu, long time no see..."

Han Ge sat on the chair with a serious expression on his face. After seeing Gu An, a smile finally appeared on that old face.

The old man is always serious at home and rarely laughs.

Even if a guest comes, it depends on whether it is worth it for him to change his mood.

After being in a high position, even if you retire and go home to take care of yourself, these habits cannot be changed for a while.

In front of Gu An, the old man couldn't put on airs at all. He knew what the current state of the Federation was like.

Old Han Ge was very polite, so Gu An naturally wouldn't put on airs. He stepped forward to help Old Han Ge sit down, and said with a smile, "What did Old Han find out?"

At this time, Mr. Han Ge picked up the information next to him and handed it to Gu An: "Hehe, that's all for now, the rest is still going on, maybe there will be some gains later..."

Gu An quickly took it. The handwriting on it looked very complicated and was written by different people, but it was clearly organized when they were assembled together. It was obviously written by professionals, and outsiders would not have such logic.

Gu An looked at the records of this document seriously, and he read it very carefully, not missing a single word.

Soon, he finished reading the document, and it was roughly the same as what Han Sheng said, except that some were added later, probably when Han Sheng went out to pick him up, and he didn't see it.

However, these newly added records are currently of no help to the progress of the matter.

Gu An continued to ask: "Mr. Han, have you checked the names of the spirit positions on the cell phone photo I sent you directly?"

Elder Han Ge nodded immediately when he heard it: "When I saw the photo, I asked someone to check it immediately. In the photo you gave Mr. Gu, the names on the spirit tablets in it should be those old people in our Han Family Village..."

"Although they are gone now, those names are recorded in the genealogy, and some of them have even appeared in the village chronicles..."

Appeared in the village journal?
Generally, if it can appear in the village annals or county annals, it must be a local influential figure. It is impossible for ordinary people to have too many records in obscurity. Gu An immediately became interested: "Does Mr. Han have any information about them?"

Han Ge smiled and nodded, then took out a document from the side and handed it over: "Hehe, old man, I bought a pass before and prepared it for Mr. Gu a long time ago. Not to mention, let you read the first document with peace of mind, and then it will be easier to calm down and read the second document."

Gu An understood what Han Ge meant, the old man was really thoughtful, he immediately thanked him, and then couldn't wait to look through the results.

Indeed, many of the above are the names in the photos on my mobile phone. It is not difficult for the professionals present to convert traditional characters into simplified characters.

Gu An read some records, and some of them were indeed influential figures in the village at that time, but the reputation of this influential figure was not very good...

Because they were all around Han Laocai. To put it bluntly, they were the bullies in the village. They were later bought by Han Laocai to guard his home and become thugs.

Their records are not many, and there is nothing outstanding or noteworthy. Gu An read it several times, but found no clues, only one of them mentioned a sentence that caught his attention.

It was a dictation of a villager at that time. The villager was a schoolteacher in the village. He had the habit of writing, drawing and drawing.

His records at that time were kept by the younger generations. Although they were worthless, they were still the things of the ancestors at that time, and the descendants kept them all the time. This time Han Ge came forward, so they took them out one after another.

There is such a sentence written on it, saying that this teacher, when he got up at night, saw these lackeys around Han Laocai sneaking out of the village with a torch in the middle of the night for several days in a row. What are you doing.

Just such a sentence, but Gu An paid attention to it. Why did he sneak out of the village without sleeping in the middle of the night?
With Han Laocai's status in Han's Village at that time, what did he want to do, he didn't have to worry about other people's thoughts at all, but this time he let the people sneak around?It must be that there is something important that you don't want to be known by outsiders, and you don't want to make it public.

What would make Han Laocai worry about being known by outsiders?

The first thing that Gu An thought of was the elixir that Han Laocai longed for.

Only this thing can make Han Laocai so careful and cautious.

"Mr. Han, Mr. Gu, we have looked through all the village chronicles and the private records of the villagers of Hanjia Village over the years, including some random graffiti in the documents. We have studied them thoroughly. This is all we can find so far. Please take a look."

At this time, a professional took over their records from each member one after another, then integrated them together, recorded them in a book, and finally walked over with this record.

After Gu An's thoughts were interrupted, he looked quickly, and Mr. Han Ge waved his hand aside: "Give it to Mr. Gu."

The professional on the opposite side handed it over respectfully.

Gu An hastily took it over. This is a new record and summary, all these professionals have dug out the details and integrated them.

[Han Laocai became obsessed with alchemy in his middle age, and liked to make friends with those wandering Taoist priests or monks]

[Han Laocai's house enshrines the sculpture of the Patriarch of the Three Qing Dynasty, and another room enshrines the statues of Buddha and Bodhisattva]

When Gu An saw this, he was taken aback for a moment, good guy, this Han Laocai really invited Taoism and Buddha together in order to live forever?

This old guy has no respect for these mythical immortals at all in his heart. It is completely for his own self-interest, even seeking medicine to maximize the benefits, and at the same time...

Guessing that a Taoist priest came to the house, he took him to see Sanqing, and then said that he was a loyal believer in Taoism.

When the monk came, he took him to see the Buddha and told him how loyal and sincere he was to the Buddha...

The old Han Ge on the side occasionally glanced at Gu An when he was flipping through it. When he saw the first record, his old face couldn't help twitching a few times, and he couldn't help but not laugh out loud.

If it weren't for too many outsiders, he would have to take into account his demeanor and the majesty of the former boss, and he would have laughed heartily at this time.

Gu An continued to look down.

[Han Laocai has successively sent people to invite many Taoist priests and monks to the village, and they are all good hospitality]

[However, most of these Taoist priests and monks failed to stay in the village for more than three days, and were all driven away]

Although this Han Laocai is begging for the elixir of life, he looks stupid, but he is actually very shrewd. Although he has a glimmer of hope, he is not completely led by the nose. It is obvious that these Taoist priests and monks are all fake , There is no real material at all, and he saw through it, so he invited him well at the beginning, and then drove him away immediately after the truth was revealed.

Gu An thought in his heart, if this is the case, it will more explain the strength of the Taoist priests who came later, they must have extraordinary abilities, otherwise it would be impossible for Han Laocai to be so convinced.

[Han Laocai later got a little relationship with Longhushan, and also invited a Taoist priest from Longhushan]

[The Taoist priest of Longhushan was not driven away by Han Laocai the next day, but he was more respectful to him, and even wanted to worship this Taoist priest as his teacher]

Dragon Tiger Mountain?Taoist?

Gu An immediately thought of Zhang Hengzhi. Many of the reasons for what happened in Hanjia Village back then were Zhang Hengzhi's subsequent attempts to find the origin of the strangeness and to find the gate of hell.

And to make Han Laocai so respectful, he must have real skills. It is estimated that Zhang Hengzhi was the only one who had real skills and was willing to come to this remote village.

[Han Laocai created a golden ring, which he said was a blessing from the Taoist ancestor of Sanqing, and wearing it around his neck can ward off evil spirits and prevent evil spirits from invading]

golden circle?

Gu An finally discovered a detail.

This detail immediately reminded him of Han Laocai in the pit, that Han Laocai who had become the zombie king, with a gold ring hanging around his neck!
There is basically no description of this golden circle in the back of this village chronicle, so it is mentioned here.

After all, Han Laocai is so rich, it is not uncommon for the villagers to wear a gold ring, so no one pays attention to it at all.

There is a record of the golden circle here, probably because of the secret ridicule of the villagers at that time, laughing at a broken golden circle and talking about the blessings of the Three Qings and deceiving ghosts.
