The tribesmen who sensed something was wrong looked panicked; they had just woken up, and even in this state, they did not want to die quickly.
"The sacred tree!"
"Go back to the ancestral hall!"
…
A silent cry resounded throughout the family. It was Chen Changming who realized that something was wrong and reacted.
At that moment, all the wandering souls quickly floated into the ancestral hall.
And when everyone arrived at the ancestral hall, the negative energy that had just been dissipating rapidly gradually slowed down.
It was not until all the tribesmen took refuge under the shade of the trees that the negative energy that had been dissipating finally stopped completely.
In the ancestral hall, Ji Yang felt the disappearance of the negative energy from everyone. It seemed that these dead tribesmen could not appear in the daytime.
But the shade of his tree is not enough to block the sunlight for all the tribesmen. When the sun reaches noon, where will these souls go?
While Ji Yang was thinking, many tribesmen came closer and closer, and even crowded around Ji Yang's tree trunk.
At this moment, the figure of a tribesman was suddenly pushed against the tree trunk and then disappeared.
The other tribesmen were surprised when they saw this, but they didn't care too much and flew towards the tree trunk.
Could it be possible that the sacred tree could harm them?
Ji Yang looked at the living souls pouring into the tree trunk with a puzzled look. But when Ji Yang carefully examined it, he found that most of the absorbed Yin energy had gathered in his tree trunk at some point.
These negative energies merged into his torso, creating a space that looked like the underworld.
It was gray inside, but the space was not small, just enough to accommodate the dead family members.
It seems that this is also a new ability gained after his race changed, which saves him a lot of effort, otherwise he really doesn't know where to let these souls hide.
As the sun rises, the family gradually regains vitality and the members begin to get busy again.
However, many tribesmen looked confused. After recalling what happened last night, many of them had a hint of doubt on their faces.
The face was so real that they couldn't tell whether it was a dream or a real thing.
"Qinghe, it seems my grandpa came to see me last night!"
Chen Qingmeng, carrying the hoe on his shoulder, spoke to Chen Qinghe beside him.
"Dreams are all fake. When your grandfather comes again tomorrow, just give him two punches."
Chen Qinghe said indifferently.
Chen Qingmeng thought about it and nodded:
"good!"
In the room, Chen Xingzhen frowned.
What happened in his dream last night seemed a little absurd to him, but the faces of his father and elder brother appeared clearly in his mind.
He remembered that his father was about to say something when the dream faded.
This made it difficult for him to figure out whether what happened last night was caused by the longing he felt for the ginkgo fruit on the sacred tree after seeing it a few days ago.
After a while, Chen Xingzhen stopped worrying about it. Whether it was true or not, he could just go and ask the sacred tree!
Soon, Chen Xingzhen arrived at the ancestral hall.
And when he pushed open the door of the ancestral hall and saw the sacred tree, the expression in his eyes became more complicated.
Because the many ginkgo fruits that were hanging on the sacred tree yesterday have now all disappeared.
But the sacred tree still retains its previous appearance.
This made Chen Xingzhen surprised and happy.
Could it be that what happened last night was not just a dream?
"Brother, did you dream about anything last night?"
"Yes, I dreamed of my father. He told me to practice martial arts well and reach the blood coagulation realm as soon as possible!"
…
The conversations of the tribesmen outside made Chen Xingzhen even more certain that what he dreamed about last night was not false.
If that's the case, he'll have to make some preparations tonight.
Ben was still worried that he alone could not make the family strong, but with the help of his father and brothers, he felt that the family would have a bright future.
However, this matter is of great importance and the news must be kept secret from outsiders.
Inside the tree trunk, Chen Changming also gave these instructions to his tribesmen.
The dead were resurrected, although only their souls were. But if the news got out, the family would surely suffer a disaster. The current family sacred tree could not be preserved by the Chen family.
In the ancestral hall, Ji Yang sensed the situation in the tree trunk and nodded in affirmation.
However, he could feel that these souls that he had transformed were actually under his control.
When necessary, Ji Yang can even force control.
But this was not part of Ji Yang's plan. He just wanted to be a tree now. He should let the two clan leaders worry about the family affairs.
Night soon fell.
As soon as night fell, Chen Xingzhen went to rest, and so did the other members of the clan.
Last night's dream and today's conversation with their tribesmen made them realize that something was wrong, so they wanted to confirm it tonight.
"father!"
In the dream, Chen Xingzhen saw Chen Changming again, looking slightly excited.
However, Chen Changming's emotions were much more stable this time, and he spoke directly:
"Xing Zhen, time is running out. I can't stay for too long."
"The purpose of resurrecting the tribe members of the sacred tree this time is to strengthen the family. Although the family is stable now, there are still many shortcomings."
Chen Xingzhen felt guilty when he heard this. He had been the patriarch for so many years, but still failed to make the family prosper and even almost got wiped out. It was all his own fault.
Seeing this, Chen Changming comforted him:
"It's not your fault. It's my fault that I died too early and didn't teach you much."
"I said, remember..."
"good!"
Chen Xingzhen nodded.
After half an incense stick of time, Chen Xingzhen looked at Chen Changming's gradually fading figure and nodded again:
“I’ve got it down!”
