Chapter 1277 Doubts

"Yes. But for the exact crop information, I have to ask my brother, I can't remember it." Dou Wuxing is an agronomist, "By the way, it was a gift brought by foreign envoys, and pepper was also introduced at the same time."

"In other words, there were no dates in the Shahe River Basin three hundred years ago?" He Lingchuan thought thoughtfully.

"Yes. It seems to have taken more than 50 years from the successful introduction of the species to the large-scale planting."

"Since you are here, let me ask you another question." He Lingchuan also picked up a date to eat, "The surname of the country of Mou seems to have originated from the Shahe River Basin?"

"Yes, the founding ancestor of the country of Mou was surnamed Xin, and he was born in our Shahe River Basin, called Shahe Xin!"

Dou Wenguan added: "To this day, there is still a branch of the Xin family left in Shahe. They are both descendants of immortals and members of the royal family of Mou, and they are extremely prosperous. I have been to his mansion. The mansion covers a vast area and stretches endlessly, as magnificent as a palace. For all local affairs, the county governor must first consult the Xin family before making a decision."

He coughed lightly: "My brother and I left Lingxu City and returned to our hometown to find a job, and we found a job under the Xin family."

His last job was working under the Xin family.

He Lingchuan nodded: "The Mou Kingdom has been in existence for 150 years, right? How much do you know about this founding ancestor?"

"The founding ancestor Xin Haiping started an uprising 154 years ago, and in just three years he defeated other opponents and founded the Mou Kingdom." Dou Wenguan added, "It is said that when he was born, hundreds of birds came to wait for him. The Shahe River had been gloomy for 100 days until the moment he was born, the clouds broke and the sun rose, spreading golden light everywhere."

He Lingchuan smiled and said, "Is this a true story, or is it fabricated?"

In this world, it is not uncommon for auspicious signs to fall from the sky.

Dou Wenguan scratched his head: "I haven't verified the authenticity of local stories."

He has told everything he knows. The deeds of more than a hundred years ago have become legends until now. Where can I find out the truth?

"How many brothers did this founding emperor have? What were their names?"

"Uh, this..." The lord's questions today were all very strange, so Dou Wenguan could only say, "I'll send a quick message back to ask?"

"Yes." He Lingchuan asked the next strange question, "Does the Xin family in Shahe preserve the portrait of the founding emperor?"

Dou Wenguan racked his brains to recall, and finally remembered: "Oh, yes. The Xin family placed the portrait of the founding emperor in the ancestral hall. I remember that this founding emperor had big ears, a solemn face, and a graceful demeanor."

"Big ears?" He Lingchuan frowned.

"An elder who has been to Moudu told me that the portrait in the Xin family ancestral hall is very different from the one in the imperial capital of Mou. Because this founding emperor left home at a young age and did not return to his hometown to pay homage to his ancestors until he was seventy years old. So the portrait left in the ancestral hall is his appearance in old age."

"I see." It sounds like that portrait is not worth seeing.

He Lingchuan also knows that descendants tend to beautify their ancestors. After several generations of painting, the portrait of Xin Haiping may have been distorted.

After the leader finished questioning, Dou Wenguan was about to leave, but suddenly remembered something and turned back and said: "By the way, I received a letter from Du Shan a few days ago. He set out from Beihai to the south, both by land and water. If the journey goes smoothly, he will reach Yangshan in seven or eight months."

This is really a long way to go, He Lingchuan nodded: "I know."

Dou Wenguan said goodbye.

He Lingchuan grabbed a rattan chair and sat down in the corridor to rest his eyes.

One hundred and fifty-one years ago, the Xin family established the Mou Kingdom.

One hundred and fifty-one years ago, this number is indifferent to others, but He Lingchuan is very concerned.

Because Panlong City was destroyed one hundred and fifty-two years ago!

The Mou Kingdom was established in the second year after Panlong City was destroyed, one before and one after, only one year apart. Is there any story in between?

The Xin family is a descendant of immortals, and the establishment of the Mou Kingdom is likely related to the support of Lingshan.

He Lingchuan thought of the imitation Yinglei gun that appeared at the Platinum Island sale. It was once the pistol of General Hong, but later became the personal weapon of the founding emperor.

In the Panlong world, Xin Yi, who was the special envoy of Lingshan, also had the surname Xin and came from the Shahe River Basin.

What is the relationship between this person and the later founding emperor Xin Haiping?

The Shahe Xin family, well, is worth exploring.

Fortunately, the Shahe River Basin is not too far from Bailie. He has to write a letter to Ding Zuodong and send someone to collect some information.

The drizzle came again, bouncing on the roof tiles and the ground, like a quiet lullaby.

He Lingchuan thought a lot, until Dong Rui came wearing a straw raincoat.

After returning to Jucheng, Dong Rui still lived a secluded life, coming every few days to ask for materials, and turning around and leaving after getting them.

He got so many treasures from the Zuoyu underground palace, like a child receiving new toys during the New Year, his mind was all on it, and he didn't even bother to give He Lingchuan an extra look.

"Hey." He Lingchuan scolded with a smile, "Is this your attitude towards your sponsor?"

I provided him with food, drink, and experiments, and the money was thrown into a bottomless pit, without even a sound of water. Now, Dong still dares to treat his sponsor like this?

Dong Rui then looked up and glanced at him, rubbing his eyelids: "Busy, tell me if you have something to say!"

Qu Yu was also an experimental maniac. Although he destroyed all research materials before his death, who was Dong Rui? I could always understand something from the few words he left behind, and then find some clues from the bone burial ground in the underground palace, and I got a lot of inspiration.

With inspiration, wouldn't it be busy?

There were no strangers nearby, so He Lingchuan asked him: "Do you have any idea about what Qu Yu has done?"

"How fast?" Dong Rui sighed, "He walked farther than me, much farther."

If nothing else, Qu Yu knew the demon far better than he did. They had killed and dissected them with their own hands, and maybe even modified them with their own hands. The value of in vivo research is too great. Unlike him, who can only play with corpses and bones.

He Lingchuan said seriously: "Let me warn you first, don't touch the direction of his research!"

"Why..." Dong Rui was stunned, but immediately reacted, "Oh, I got it."

Qu Yu's research attracted the demons, which shows how valuable it is; he, Dong Rui, is just a wanted criminal who has not been listed on the list. If he repeats Qu Yu's mistakes and is discovered by the demons, wouldn't it be a disaster for the Yangshan Islands?

He Lingchuan knows best what kind of temperament this guy has, and he must kill him: "If you dare to touch him, I will never have funds again, and I will take back Alfalfa Island."

"Don't worry, I won't study in that direction anymore." Dong Rui waved his hand angrily, "I always keep my word, can't you still trust me?"

"You have to remember, if something goes wrong, I can't protect you!"

Dong Rui said angrily: "I don't have to worry about it, why do you need to tell me?"

He Lingchuan pondered for a moment and then said: "In your opinion, what method will the devil use to return to the world?"
