Chapter 77 Bai Family Ancestral Hall
There were no gold or silver treasures in this stone chamber, but the shock it gave the two people far exceeded the sum of all the previous stone chambers combined!
This place... is actually the ancestral hall of the Bai family!
Inside, from who knows which generation, there were layers upon layers of memorial tablets stacked on a huge stone table!
Due to their age, these memorial tablets are covered with dust and cobwebs...
Especially the memorial tablets in the top row, the wood itself looked visibly rotten, and the characters carved on them were barely legible...
Ye Ran carefully looked through the top row: Bai Qin, Bai Wan, Bai Cheng, Bai Jue, Bai...
Above, all the memorial tablets were filled with people surnamed Bai...
Ye Ran murmured absentmindedly, "These...are these all the ancestors of the Bai family?"
Lu Yi was also deeply shocked. Looking at the rows of memorial tablets in front of him, he couldn't utter a single word...
Such a large family...
Such a deep abyss of roots...
This tradition has lasted for thousands of years...
This is the kind of culture and history that could only be nurtured here, in a place where the civilization of this country has continued uninterrupted for thousands of years...
Only here can such a strong sense of clan identity and family honor be passed down from generation to generation...
Both of them were deeply shocked and moved by the solemn and majestic ancestral hall before them...
Ye Ran remained stunned for a long time, staring at the names on the memorial tablets...
These people were likely the pride of the Bai family in their own time, making indelible contributions to the development of the Bai family...
Even now, they still stand solemnly here, quietly guarding the Bai family's legacy passed down through generations, enduring the long years, and awaiting the arrival of future generations...
Ye Ran slowly walked up, solemnly knelt before these memorial tablets, and respectfully performed a grand salute...
Lu Yi also knelt down and performed the same salute.
Ye Ran looked at him, "Why are you bowing too?"
Lu Yi didn't turn around. "Isn't this just common sense?"
Even without our relationship, this is the proper thing to do out of respect for our ancestors.
Hearing his words, Ye Ran smiled and agreed.
After the two finished their greetings, they stood up.
Upon discovering several sticks of incense nearby, Lu Yi picked them up and tried to light them with a match.
After several attempts, the incense sticks actually lit.
Ye Ran smiled, her eyes crinkling. "It actually lit up..."
Lu Yi gently sniffed the cigarette, then carefully examined the slender sticks, praising, "This incense is no ordinary incense. The aroma..."
"There might be some special ingredient added, which is why this incense has remained unchanged for hundreds of years in these mountains..."
Ye Ran's eyes were full of admiration, "It's really amazing!"
Lu Yi solemnly handed a stick of incense to Ye Ran, saying, "The wisdom of the ancients is beyond our comprehension..."
After the two people lit the incense sticks, they bowed and then slowly began to observe the stone chamber.
The stone chambers here were all carved out of the mountainside. The first few chambers could only be seen with flashlights, but this one was different.
