Ghostly Tomb

Chapter 662 Ji's Presbyterian Home ([-])

Chen Zhi didn't like the old lady's arrogant tone very much, and she didn't like her eyes like examining a prisoner. She looked at Chen Zhi from head to toe, as if she was looking at something.

Then, I saw a slight smile on the old lady's mouth and said,
"It seems that you have really disappointed your cousin. In the end, you inherited the position of the Jiang family patriarch. I don't know if he can close his eyes in the underworld. Your mother called me aunt, and I am you 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...",
There was a flash in Chen Zhi's mind, and he heard clearly what the old lady said just now.

"It seems that you have really disappointed your cousin. In the end, you have inherited the position of the patriarch of the Jiang family." The information revealed in this sentence is very clear. The previous patriarch of the Jiang family was also Chen Zhi's cousin. , during his lifetime, he did not want Chen Zhi to inherit the position of the patriarch of the Jiang clan.

This is also what Chen Zhi had always suspected in his heart. Chen Zhi had been wondering before, since his cousin knew clearly that Jiang's blood had withered, he knew that the only heir was no longer alive, and he also knew that Chen the existence of intelligence.

That being the case, why didn't his cousin meet Chen Zhi while he was still alive?Even if there is no reason for family affection, even if it is for Jiang's future, why not teach Chen Zhi all Jiang's mantras in person while he is still alive?Why bother making it so difficult and dangerous for Chen Zhi to find the spell by himself.

If it is impossible to say that his cousin was negligent, this is a major matter related to whether the Jiang family is extinct. How could his cousin make such a low-level mistake.

This obviously illogical approach can only lead to one conclusion, and Chen Zhi has already assumed this conclusion, but now the facts have proved that everything is exactly as he assumed.

Chen Zhi's 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 pass on Jiang's unique spells to him.That is to say, Chen Zhi is an heir who was not recognized by the previous patriarch, which is probably why the leader guarded against Chen Zhi.

"Why is this? Is it because I was born to a woman? The maternal heir has a different surname, so my cousin thinks that I am not qualified to inherit the position of the Jiang family patriarch?" Chen Zhi thought silently.

"No!", Chen Zhi then canceled this assumption, his cousin is definitely not such a superficial person, if this is the case, then why did Chen Zhi come here?Chen Zhi never took the initiative to ask to be the patriarch. Everything was pushed up by the organization. It seems that the reason for this must not be so simple.

Chen Zhi followed the old lady into the pavilion, but he didn't ask the doubts in his mind. First, it was because it was the first time for Chen Zhi to meet the old lady, so it was inconvenient to ask too many questions.

The second is that Chen Zhi dislikes this old lady very much, he hates her supercilious attitude.

The interior of this attic is much larger than it looks from the outside. After entering, there is a long and narrow corridor. The walls of the corridor are made of black masonry walls, and the decorations and weapons of bronze and black iron are hung on it.

On these walls, Chen Zhi saw ancient weapons such as broadswords and axes. These weapons looked very old, but the blades were still very sharp, and there were still flashes of light around the weapons. They were all rare weapon treasures .

They walked forward without detours, and 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, which immediately made people feel timid, as if the hall in front was filled with the most powerful force in the world.

Chen Zhi calmed down his aura slightly, and followed the old lady into the hall. The first thing he saw in this hall was a dense circle of spirit cards around him. Those spirit cards were very large, and behind each tablet were A pair of armor, some of which are very old, no matter the style or the material is the style of ancient times, it is full of sword marks and wounds, some of them have turned into muck, 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 surrounding air, there was a sacred feeling in this hall that cannot be desecrated, which made people feel Depressed, it seemed that all the armor was standing there like a living person, looking at Chen Zhi below like a god and Buddha high above.

"This is the spiritual seat of our Ji Clan's successive leaders, and it is also the final resting place of the heroes..." After finishing speaking, the old lady gave Chen Zhi a sideways glance, as if testing his reaction, and then said,

"And the tablet of the previous leader... is 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, followed by a pair of black armor.

A few large characters were clearly engraved on the spirit tablet, "Loyalty Spirit King, the position of Ji Rong".

When the old lady looked at the spirit card, her face was a little depressed, and she said in a low voice,
"Our Ji family has been a loyal generation for generations, and our relationship with your Jiang family is too deep. Many things have happened in the past, so I won't talk about it... But we will always trust your Jiang family the most.

The generations of leaders of our Ji clan are all heroic fighters. So far, all of them have died in battle, without exception. "

After the old lady said these words word by word, she walked up to the spirit tablet of the deceased leader, knelt down on one knee, bowed respectfully and saluted,
Chen Zhi also walked over and saluted the spirit tablet of the leader in front of him, but when he kowtowed to the spirit tablet, he suddenly felt a very strange feeling.

In this kind of place, Chen Zhi suddenly felt a strange feeling of being oppressed. This feeling is hard to describe. Although Chen Zhi never confirmed the existence of ghosts, he now clearly feels that behind this spirit card, The heroic spirit of the late leader stood there, looking at him burningly, as if expressing something to Chen Zhi.

When Chen Zhi was in a trance, the old lady stood up suddenly, then motioned for Chen Zhi to follow him, and continued to walk deep together. It turned out that there was a big hall behind the mourning hall.

The hall is a perfect circle, the walls are black, everything is clean and simple, there is a black stone table floating in the middle, this table is also circular, and there are a few elderly people sitting around the table, and this Like old ladies, these old people are all wearing neat steel armor, but they don't hold weapons in their hands. Judging from their withered hair and wrinkles on their faces, they are all over a hundred years old.

At this time, an old man sitting in the center stood up. The old man's face was very modest, and he bowed slightly to Chen Zhi.

"Patriarch Chen, I'm sorry, this old man is Ji Hu, the head of the elders' house, and now he brings all the elders to welcome you..."
