Chapter 433: Family Tree
"I'm going to find that little monster!"
Gu Xiangyang laughed, "No, it's not a little monster, it's the ancestor of the Meng family. I want to find the ancestor Meng!"
Gu Jinfeng's mouth twitched. "Old Ancestor, you are almost two hundred years old, and you are on the same level as a one or thirteen year old baby. Isn't it a bit weird?"
Halfway through his walk, he stopped again and said to Gu Jinfeng who was still in a daze, "Go find all the genealogical records of our Gu family. I want to see them now, right now, right now!"
"yes!"
He wanted to ask, but seeing the old ancestor's crazy expression, Gu Jinfeng hurried to find him.
Gu Xiangyang originally wanted to ask the little monster about the bloodline of the Phoenix Clan, but after thinking about it, he stopped.
He planned to look in the family tree to see if there was any relevant record. Maybe they had missed something!
"etc!"
Gu Jinfeng, who had just walked halfway, stopped and asked, "Grandmaster, do you have anything else to say?"
"No need, I'll go to the ancestral hall myself!"
"yes!"
Although he didn't know why, Gu Jinfeng didn't ask much. He always felt that the ancestor seemed a little crazy after seeing the appraisal results.
He didn't know what the appraisal result meant. He could only say that people who don't know the truth are always the happiest.
As the saying goes, ignorance is bliss, and this is not nonsense!
Not everyone can enter the family ancestral hall. Everyone who wants to enter the ancestral hall needs to obtain the consent of the family head and elders before entering the ancestral hall. However, for the family ancestor, this is an exception.
"Grandfather, these are all the records in the genealogy of our Gu family!"
"Um!"
Gu Xiangyang nodded, and his hands moved very quickly. In less than half an hour, he had finished reading all the hundreds of family genealogies. However, among so many records, he did not find what he was looking for.
"Are you sure everything is here?"
Gu Jinfeng nodded, "All the family records are in here!"
Gu Xiangyang frowned and looked at Gu Jinfeng with an extremely unhappy expression, "I ask again, is everything here?"
"yes!"
"It seems that the record of the first ancestor is missing here. Think carefully to see if there is anything missing!"
"One person is missing?"
Gu Jinfeng's face changed. How could it be less?
Few people have read the family genealogies from thousands of years ago. They are all sealed in the ancestral hall. How could one copy be missing?
"Ancestor, please calm down. The genealogy records of the Gu family for thousands of years are all here. There is really nothing missing!"
"Really?"
"Look for yourself!"
Gu Xiangyang's face was terribly gloomy. Such an important family tree record was omitted. The head of the family didn't even know about it. He was really incompetent for his job!
Gu Jinfeng didn't care about being afraid. He quickly browsed through all the family tree records and his face turned pale in an instant.
Because what the ancestor said was right, there was indeed one record missing in the family tree. How, how could this be?
"Ancestor, calm down!"
He felt very wronged. Even if he was the clan leader, it was impossible for him to read every genealogy book. If the ancestor had not wanted to see the genealogy, he would not have thought of looking through the genealogy books from thousands of years ago. Who would have known that there would be one book missing from these genealogies!
Gu Xiangyang's face was so gloomy that water could drip out of it.
Seeing this, Gu Jinfeng dared not speak even more, for fear of being slapped to death by the ancestor.
"Get up, this is not your fault!"
Gu Xiangyang let out a long sigh. He originally wanted to find some clues through the family tree, but now it seems impossible!
"Let's go!"
Since I couldn't find the record I was looking for, I could only ask that little monster. Maybe she knows something!
Gu Jinfeng nodded and was about to follow the ancestor out when suddenly an idea flashed in his mind, "Ancestor, I remember it!"
Gu Xiangyang glanced over and asked, "What did you think of?"
"Ancestor, there is a secret room under our ancestral hall. The family tree you are looking for may be inside the secret room!"
Gu Jinfeng said with some hesitation, "However, our ancestors have taught us that no one is allowed to enter the secret room. The Gu family should take it as their responsibility to guard the secret room and not allow anyone to set foot in it!"
Even he, the head of the family, cannot set foot inside, so until now, no one knows what is hidden in the secret room.
But it must be the most important thing to their Gu family, otherwise there wouldn’t be such ancestral teachings!
"No one is allowed to step in?" Gu Xiangyang murmured. Why is that?
Even though he is now the ancestor of the Gu family, he cannot ignore the ancestral teachings of the Gu family.
But that secret room might be where the secrets of their Gu family were hidden, and he would be unwilling not to take a look.
"What if I must go in?"
Gu Jinfeng smiled bitterly, "Grandmaster, you are not making things difficult for me. Our ancestors have taught us that no one is allowed to enter the secret room for any reason!"
"Ancestor, the family tree you are looking for may not be in there. How about we think of another way?"
Gu Xiangyang sneered. What other method could he have? It was impossible for the Gu family's genealogy to be stolen, right?
"Since our ancestors set this rule, there must be a reason. Do you think there is anything missing?"
Gu Xiangyang frowned, thought for a moment and said, "That secret room cannot remain invisible forever. There must be an opportunity and requirement to enter it!"
"Ancestor, it's really gone!"
Gu Jinfeng smiled bitterly. If it really existed, why wouldn’t he tell him? The ancestor was really making things difficult for him!
"Rules are dead, but people are alive!" Gu Xiangyang shook his head. "I think there must be a reason why our ancestors set this ancestral precept. Maybe we can enter when the time comes, like now!"
What he is looking for now is the roots of the Gu family, and no one can stop him!
"Think twice, ancestor!"
Gu Jinfeng was terrified. Could it be that the ancestor was trying to break into the secret room? What should he do?
He couldn't and didn't dare to stop, but his ancestors' words were still in his ears and he dared not forget them.
"Are you going to stop me?"
Gu Jinfeng's face turned pale, and he stood in front of him with a fearless attitude, "I dare not forget my ancestors' teachings, please forgive me!"
It was obvious that if Gu Xiangyang tried to force his way in, he would definitely stop him, even at the cost of his life. This was his responsibility as the patriarch of the Gu family!
My ancestors’ words are still ringing in my ears, I will never forget them!
"Good boy, aren't you afraid of death?"
Gu Xiangyang sneered. Is he sure that he won't touch him?
Gu Jinfeng lowered his head, "Disciple doesn't dare!"
A huge pressure came over him. Gu Jinfeng clenched his teeth and soon he was sweating profusely.
Even though his lips were bleeding, he was still unwilling to give way. If he gave way, he would not be qualified to be the patriarch of the Gu family.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
He only felt the pressure on his body suddenly loosen, and the whole person was as if he had just been pulled out of the water, gasping for breath. Looking at the ancestor who turned around and left the ancestral hall, a hint of relief flashed in his eyes!
Survived!
