Hei Mudan frowned, shook her head, and said, "I don't know."

"you do not know?"

Tang Feng narrowed his eyes slightly, and his eyes showed doubt, "Then why did you stop him from going?"

When Ji Ning and Tang Feng talked about this, they mentioned that Hei Mudan seemed to know something. Before Li Jia wanted to go to the tomb that caused him to be infected with strange diseases, she was unwilling to let him go. But just now, Hei Mudan also admitted this. At this time, she said that she didn't know the reason and how to make Tang Feng believe it.

Hei Mudan smiled bitterly and said, "To be honest, Mr. Tang, my craft was passed down from my ancestors. I learned to rob the tomb with my father."

Lin Mengjia looked even more surprised. Even Shangguan was slightly shocked and looked at Black Peony.

In China, many skills are passed down according to the family, such as the medical skills of the Changsun family. Although tomb robbers are also a very ancient business, most of them are passed down from generation to generation by the family.

However, Shangguan knew much more about this than Lin Mengjia. As far as she knew, other crafts were good, but this tomb robber has always been passed down to men but not women. Even if it was passed down to son-in-law, it would not be passed down to daughter. Unexpectedly, Black Peony was taught by her father.

Hei Mudan saw the surprise of everyone and explained: "When my father was young, he was also in tomb robbing because of his ancestors. After marrying my mother, he washed his hands. He said that digging graves and digging graves is a detriment to good deeds. Since he got married and had children, he wanted to accumulate virtue for his children. However, there is probably a saying that retribution is indeed. Before my mother gave birth to me, she was pregnant with her third child, but she was not saved. Later, she received guidance from a master and gave birth to me. But after me, he never had any other children."

It was the first time Ji Ning heard about Hei Peony. Although he still lowered his head and did not dare to say much, his ears stood up and listened very seriously.

Shangguan nodded slowly, but there were still doubts in his eyes.

Xie Laohu and Rong Guocheng exchanged a look. Both of them did not speak, but their eyes were full of surprise at Hei Mudan's background. Even Xie Laohu only knew that Hei Mudan was a sensible figure and knew nothing about her origin.

Lin Mengjia heard Hei Mudan's words and said in confusion: "Why does your father still teach you even though he knows that robbing tombs is not good?

You are his only daughter, aren’t he afraid of you having any shortcomings?”

"It was not that he taught me on his own initiative, it was me who learned it secretly."

The black peony's eyes were filled with a complicated look, and I don't know if it was pride or regret.

She probably thought that if she hadn't learned tomb robbing, she would probably not have been like this now.

"Study secretly?"

Lin Mengjia became more and more curious.

Hei Mudan lowered her eyes and said quietly after a while: "When I was a child, I lived in an old house in the countryside with my father and mother. Although he no longer robbed the tombs, the tools were kept, just hidden in a small house where miscellaneous items were stored. One day, I made toys in it, but I found those tools and became interested. I asked my father. He didn't say anything at that time, but just sighed, touched my head, and put away the things. At that time, I didn't know why my father did that. When I grew up, I realized that my father had always been extremely conflicted. On the one hand, I felt that robbing the tombs was not an open and upright thing, but on the other hand, I regretted that I had no son and could not pass on this craft. He was so old that he had me, and he knew that he would never have any children, and he would not have a son to inherit his craft. He felt very sad."

Lin Mengjia was still puzzled. This thing that harmed her good deeds cannot be passed on to her daughter. Does it matter if it is passed on to her son?

When she was about to ask another question, Shangguan whispered: "For these family inheritances, what is important is not good or bad, right or wrong, or right or evil, but since it has been passed on to his own hands, he has the responsibility to prevent it from being lost."

Hei Peony nodded, holding a teacup in his hand, and sighed in a sigh.

Lin Mengjia said "ah".

She is also from a big family. Although she doesn't know much about the inheritance of this tradition, she can easily accept it. She nodded and said, "Since he doesn't want to teach you, how did you learn it secretly?"

Hei Mudan said: "When I was fifteen years old, my man found my father and wanted to take him as his teacher. At that time, he was a young boy. My father was eager to find someone to inherit his skills, so he accepted him. When his father taught him his skills, he did not avoid me. I took this opportunity to learn secretly. After a few years, I also learned as if I had done it."

Shangguan said thoughtfully: "Your family skills must not be taught by just taking an apprentice, right?"

Hei Mudan said seriously: "At that time, my father asked us to make a marriage contract, he was willing to teach him. However, we would eventually become husband and wife because of our love, not because of our father."

It can be seen that Hei Mudan cares very much about the relationship between them and immediately wants to explain it, but Shangguan is obviously not interested in whether they have feelings. What she wants to confirm is that this family inheritance must be based on the root of the family. If Li Jiafei was Hei Mudan's husband, her father would not have taught him the ability. When he taught Li Jia, he did not avoid Hei Mudan, which means that he was not very resistant to teaching it to his daughter.

Tang Feng naturally didn't care about these things, and just said lightly: "What does this have to do with that tomb?"

"Since our craftsmanship is inherited by the family, then the ancestors have many rules," Hei Mudan frowned, his face very ugly. "In the warnings handed down from the ancestors, he warned his descendants that some tombs cannot be touched. Even if the temptation is great, he should stay away from it, and that tomb cannot be touched."

Only then did Tang Feng understand that the reason why Hei Peony told these many things was just explaining to him that although she knew that there was something wrong with the tomb, she did not know when the problem was. She was just following the ancestral teachings.

He nodded and said, "What's the special thing about that tomb? Why aren't robberies allowed?"
