There is a trick

Chapter 67: Death to those without official positions
The wine smells great!

Being in this wine cellar filled with the aroma of wine is enough to make you intoxicated even without taking a sip!

Zhou Chang ran wildly on the slope, his eyes sweeping over every rice grave in sight—

The golden chain formed by the emperor's decree swayed and passed behind a rice grave.

Behind the huge rice grave with the stone tablet of "Wen Zhaolin" erected, there was a rustling noise, like the sound of chickens pecking at rice or dogs digging the soil, and from the top of the rice grave, grain crumbs slowly rolled down.

In a corner behind the rice grave, a round shadow was rolling.

When Zhou Chang got closer, he suddenly realized that the round black shadow was actually a human head!
The man was wearing a silk melon-shaped hat with a fake mouse braid made of black cotton thread on the back. At this time, the mouse braid was wrapped around the side of his face.

It hid behind the rice grave, with a pair of drooping eyes on its pale face staring straight at Zhou Chang's eyes——

Zhou Chang stopped on the ramp and looked at the pale head.

He saw the face of the head clearly and recognized its identity.

It is the eldest son of the Wen family who married Bai Xiu'e!
It's Wen Yongsheng!
The eldest son of the Wen family has the same name as the ancestor of the Wen family!

"you--"

The human head watched Zhou Chang's corpse approaching it. It uttered a word in an ambiguous voice and suddenly retracted its head behind the rice grave.

Behind the rice grave, there was a clanging sound of wood colliding.

The next moment, the head rose high from the top of the rice tomb, and passed over the top of the rice tomb, rising higher and higher.

Under the head with fake pigtails, there was not a stretched neck, but a pitch-black tablet. On the tablet was written 'the spirit tablet of the great ancestor Wen Yongsheng'. Under this pitch-black tablet, there was another head that looked quite similar to the head on top. Under the head, there was also a tablet - 'the spirit tablet of the great ancestor Wen Siming'. Under Wen Siming's tablet, there was still a head...

The spirit tablet of Tianzu Gong Wen Sizu!
The spirit tablet of great-grandfather Wen Zhaolin!
The spirit tablet of great-grandfather Wen Xingren!
……

The head is connected to the tablet, and the tablet is connected to the head. They are coiled and twisted in the wine cellar, forming a dragon-serpent with human heads and tablets!
Except for the head of 'Wen Yongsheng' on the top of the human head tablet, the other heads all had pale faces and tightly closed eyes. Only when 'Wen Yongsheng' spoke in a gloomy tone, he uttered one word: "You——"

After that, the heads below opened their eyes one after another, stared straight at Zhou Chang, and spoke one after another -

"You are just a commoner, and you dare to covet a woman favored by a god?!"

It calls itself a god. It is the owner of the 'Grass-Headed Dragon Wen Yongsheng Divine Altar' on the altar table in the main hall of the Wen family's house!

It is a secular god - the grass-headed dragon!
The head on top of the grass-headed dragon opened its eyes and stared straight at Zhou Chang.

After asking Zhou Chang the first question, it turned wooden and cold, and then asked Zhou Chang: "Are you an official?"

The moment the secular god asked Zhou Chang this question, Zhou Chang suddenly felt a sense of alarm in his heart!
He felt a strong burning sensation in the palm of his right hand, and wisps of thoughts flowed through his right palm. In the blink of an eye, the red python costume with golden scales and four claws was already on him!

"Buzz!"

On the robe, the python dragon seemed to swim for a moment and then returned to its original position.

The warning signs that existed in Zhou Chang's mind suddenly disappeared afterwards.

He realized that if he hadn't put on the python robe in time, Cao Tou Long Chang would have definitely given him another 'omen of death' after asking him whether he had an official position!

The taboo of Cao Tou Long Chang is "no official can be killed"!
This dragon robe given by the golden head of Emperor Shizong concealed the emperor's restraint on Zhou Chang, but it could also play a role at certain times.

For example, at this moment, this python robe is worn by Zhou Chang, which is equivalent to giving Zhou Chang a higher status than an "official body", making the death omen taboo of Cao Tou Long rampant ineffective against Zhou Chang!
"Are you... an official?" "Are you... an official?"

Cao Tou Long had a stern face and asked again and again.

Zhou Chang felt that its inquiries at this time were no longer directed at him.

When it had met Zhou Chang before and questioned Zhou Chang for taking Bai Xiu'e away, Zhou Chang clearly felt that this 'grass-headed dragon' still had some sanity left, but now, it seemed to have completely become a secular god itself, without any emotion or intelligence.

The head holds the tablet, and the tablet is connected to the head. The grass-headed dragon covered with mycelium is led by the first head 'Wen Yongsheng', and it staggers upward and passes through layers of wine cellars.

A devilish questioning voice kept coming out of its mouth: "Are you... an official?"

In addition to the sound of this inquiry, there is occasionally the sound of it chanting the mantra:
"Buzz! Bey! Sawanaye! Soha!"

The grass-headed dragon was unconsciously chanting a mantra related to the God of Wealth. Under the head at the end of its "body", there was a golden chain of the emperor's decree. The chain was dragging Wen Yongsheng's headless body, and they swayed and floated up to the top floor of the wine cellar.

Not sure if it was the effect of the mantra, but Zhou Chang saw that on the golden chain formed by the emperor's will, square holes like copper coins gradually appeared.

The next moment, the outlines of copper coins appeared around the square holes.

Each copper coin was actually inlaid on the emperor's will, corroding the emperor's will.

The lock ring began to crack!
"Wow!"

From the spring at the bottom of the cellar, more and more wine gushed out, as if there was no end!
The spring water, overflowing with the aroma of wine, flooded the bottom of the cellar, flooded the second to last layer of the cellar, and continued to raise the water level!
At the same time, the entire wine cellar began to shake!

The rice graves covered with mycelium in those cellars collapsed one by one in the violent shaking!

Grain fell to the ground and rice graves collapsed.

One after another, human heads flew out from the collapsed tomb, floating close to the grass-headed dragon rising to the top floor of the wine cellar, joining the grass-headed dragon's body and becoming a part of it.

There is also a tablet under each head.

But the names on the tablets are all from the Wen family.

"Are you an official?"

Cao Tou Long's wooden and cold questioning voice was still echoing throughout the wine cellar.

Zhou Chang looked at the headless bodies revealed in the collapsed rice graves, and he felt a chill in his heart, and immediately realized that -

It was the Grass-Headed Dragon that sent the omen of death to the living people lying in the cellar, causing them to die instantly, and even their heads became part of the Grass-Headed Dragon's body!

The omen of Cao Tou Long Chang's death is different from that of Feng Qi!
Feng Qi gave Zhou Chang a sign of death, but Zhou Chang still had ten days to live.

The sign of death that the grass-headed dragon was looking for was instant death!

"Tap Tap!"

Zhou Chang ran wildly along the slope, chasing the swaying long line of human head tablets, and ran to the top of the wine cellar.

On the top floor of the wine cellar, on both sides of the dark wooden door, two shivering figures were curled up.
