Chen Zhi didn't like the arrogant tone of this old lady's words very much, and he didn't like the way she looked at her like a prisoner. She looked at Chen Zhi from head to toe, as if she was looking at something.
Then, I saw a gentle smile on the old lady's lips and said,
"It seems that I really disappointed your cousin uncle. In the end, you inherited the position of the Jiang clan leader. I don't know if he can close his eyes under the underworld. Your mother called me aunt, and I am your
Elders, let’s go! Come in with me, the elders are waiting for you and will pay attention to your words later.”
"What did she just say...",
Chen Zhi's mind suddenly flashed. He heard clearly what the old lady just said.
"It seems that I really disappointed your cousin uncle. In the end, you inherited the position of the clan leader of the Jiang family." The information revealed by this sentence is very clear. The previous clan leader of the Jiang family was also Chen Zhi's cousin.
, during his lifetime, he did not want Chen Zhi to inherit the position of leader of the Jiang family.
This is what Chen Zhi has been doubting in his heart. Chen Zhi has been wondering before, since his cousin Gong clearly knows that the Jiang family's bloodline has withered, and he knows that the only heir is no longer alive, and he also knows that Chen
The existence of wisdom.
In this case, why didn't his cousin meet Chen Zhi while he was still alive? Even if there was no family relationship, even if it was for the future of the Jiang family, why didn't he personally transfer all the Jiang family members to him while he was still alive?
What about teaching the spell to Chen Zhi? Why let Chen Zhi find the spell on his own so hard and dangerously?
It is impossible to say that his uncle-in-law was negligent. This is a major matter related to whether the Jiang family will become extinct. How could his uncle-in-law make such a low-level mistake?
This obviously illogical approach can only lead to one conclusion, and Chen Zhi had already assumed this conclusion, but now the facts have proved that everything is exactly as he assumed.
Chen Zhi's cousin uncle, the previous patriarch of the Jiang family, did not want to pass on the position of patriarch to Chen Zhi, nor did he want to teach him the unique spells of the Jiang family. In other words, Chen Zhi was a person who was not
The heir recognized by the previous clan leader, this is probably why the leader is wary of Chen Zhi.
"Why on earth is this? Is it because I am the child of a woman? The maternal heir is from a foreign surname, so my cousin thinks that I am not qualified to inherit the position of the Jiang clan leader?" Chen Zhi thought silently in his heart.
"No!" Chen Zhi then canceled this assumption. His uncle was definitely not such a shallow person. If that was the case, then why would Chen Zhi come here? Chen Zhi never asked to be the patriarch of the clan, everything was
Being pushed up by the organization, it seems that the reason behind this is definitely not that simple.
Chen Zhi followed the old lady into the pavilion, but he did not ask the doubts in his mind. First, it was because it was the first time for Chen Zhi to see the old lady and it was not convenient for him to ask too many questions.
Second, Chen Zhi disliked this old lady very much. He hated her arrogant attitude.
The interior of this attic is much larger than it looks from the outside. After entering, there is a long and narrow corridor. Both walls of the corridor are made of black bricks and stones, and are covered with bronze and black iron decorations and weapons.
Chen Zhi saw ancient weapons such as swords and axes on these walls. These weapons looked very ancient, but their cutting edges were still very sharp. There was also a spiritual light shining around the weapons. They were all rare weapon treasures.
.
They walked straight forward without taking any detours. After passing through a small side hall, they entered a square hall.
Before entering this hall, Chen Zhi immediately felt an extremely heavy and solemn atmosphere emanating from it, making people immediately feel timid, as if the hall in front of him was filled with the most powerful forces in the world.
Chen Zhi calmed down his aura slightly and followed the old lady in. The first thing he saw in this hall was a dense circle of spiritual tablets. The spiritual tablets were very large, and behind each tablet there were
A pair of armor, some of which are very old. Both the style and the material are of the style of ancient times. It is full of knife marks and sword wounds. Some of them have turned into rubble, but they are still shining.
Chen Zhi felt a strong conscious aura in this hall. He seemed to be able to feel the strong will in the air around him. There was a sense of sacredness in this hall that could not be blasphemed, which made people feel...
Depressed, as if all the armors were living people standing there, like gods and Buddhas from above, looking at Chen Zhi below.
"This is the spiritual place of the leaders of our Ji family, and it is also the final resting place of the heroes..." After the old lady finished speaking, she glanced sideways at Chen Zhi, as if testing his reaction, and then said,
"And the tablet of the previous leader... is right here!".
After the old lady finished speaking, she pointed forward with her hand. Chen Zhi saw that there was a large black spiritual tablet at the front. The spiritual tablet was obviously just made. The black stone was simple and rough.
There are no decorations or decorative patterns, and there is a pair of black armor immediately behind it.
There are several large characters clearly engraved on the spirit tablet, "Loyal Spiritual King, Ji Rong's Position".
When the old lady looked at the spiritual tablet, her face looked a little depressed and she whispered,
"We, the Ji family, have been loyal and loyal people for generations. We have a very deep connection with you, the Jiang family. Many things have happened in the past that I won't go into detail...but we will always have the most trust in your Jiang family.
The leaders of our Ji family have been brave warriors for generations. So far, all of them have died in battle, without exception. No matter what kind of enemy they face, no one will tolerate it."
After the old lady said these words word by word, she walked to the deceased leader's spiritual tablet, knelt down on one knee, kowtowed respectfully and saluted.
Chen Zhi also walked over and saluted the leader's spiritual tablet in front of him, but when he knelt down to worship the spiritual tablet, he suddenly felt an extremely strange feeling.
In a place like this, Chen Zhi suddenly felt a strange and oppressive feeling. This feeling was difficult to describe. Although Chen Zhi had never confirmed the existence of ghosts, he now clearly felt that behind this spiritual tablet,
The heroic spirit of the late leader stood there, looking at him sternly, as if he was expressing something to Chen Zhi.
While Chen Zhi was in a trance, the old lady suddenly stood up, then motioned for Chen Zhi to follow him, and together they continued walking deeper. It turned out that there was a large hall behind the mourning hall.
This hall has a perfect circle, the walls are dark, everything is clean and concise, and there is a black stone table floating in the middle. The table top is also round. Around the table are sitting several elderly people, and this
Like old ladies, these old men all wore neat stainless steel armor, but none of them had weapons in their hands. Judging from their withered hair and the wrinkles on their faces, they were all over 100 years old.
At this time, an old man sitting in the center stood up. The old man's face was very humble, and he bowed slightly to Chen Zhi.
"Clan Chief Chen, I'm sorry. I am Ji Hu, the leader of the Elders' House. I am here to greet you with all the elders..."
