Emperor’s Domination - Chapter 4560
[4455 – Ancestor Recognition]
The martial arts disciple followed the Patriarch into the stone room.
After they entered the stone room, they took a closer look, and when they saw Li Qiye, they couldn’t help being startled, and when they looked around the stone room, they couldn’t help but look at each other in blank dismay.
For a while, the martial arts disciples didn’t know how to express their feelings at this moment, or it was because of disappointment.
Because, in their imagination, if there really was an ancient ancestor living in seclusion here, then the ancient ancestor should be a very old and terrifying existence.
However, the person in front of him looks young and ordinary-looking. Looking at him with the eyes of the sky, his morals and deeds are far from reaching the level of the ancestors.
All of a sudden, no matter it was the disciple of the Wu family, or the head of the Wu family and the ancestor, they all looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
“Here, is this the ancient ancestor?” After a while, a Wu family disciple couldn’t help asking in a low voice.
However, if this is the case, who can answer it? If they have to come back with intuition, then their first reaction is not to think that Li Qiye is an ancient ancestor.
However, they didn’t dare to talk nonsense before making a conclusion. If it was really the ancient ancestor, it would be really disrespectful to the ancient ancestor.
“Patriarch, this—” a strong man from the Wu family could not help but whisper to the Patriarch of the Wu family.
At this moment, everyone was unable to make up their minds about the situation in front of them, even the Patriarch of the Wu family couldn’t make up his mind about the situation in front of him.
“Does Mister live here in seclusion?” After regaining consciousness, the Patriarch of the Wu family bowed to Li Qiye and said in a low voice.
However, Li Qiye sat there cross-legged, motionless, and ignored them.
This made the Patriarch of the Wu Family and his group look at each other in blank dismay. For a moment, the Patriarch of the Wu Family was in a dilemma, and the Patriarch of the Wu Family was unable to determine whether the person in front of him was the ancient ancestor of their family.
However, they didn’t dare to recognize each other rashly. In case they made a mistake and made a mistake, it was just a joke, it would be a great loss to their family.
“What should I do?” At this moment, the Patriarch of the Wu family couldn’t help asking Mingzu beside him in a low voice.
At this moment, Mingzu couldn’t help pondering, he wasn’t very sure, logically speaking, judging from the various conditions of the young man in front of him, he really didn’t look like an ancient ancestor, and, in his In my impression, in the records of their Wu family, it seems that there is no ancient ancestor who is comparable to the young man in front of me.
Rationally speaking, this young man in front of him should not be the ancient ancestor of their martial arts family, but in his heart, Ming Zu had somewhat hoped that if he could really find an ancient ancestor, for their martial arts family, It is indeed no small matter.
“Probably not.” Li Qiye sat there cross-legged like a stone sculpture. Some disciples couldn’t hold back, and couldn’t help muttering: “Maybe, it’s the fellow Taoist who happened to be practicing here.”
Such a guess , is also possible, after all, any strong monk can also practice here, and this place does not belong to the territory of any sect inheritance. “Look through the ancient books of the family.” Finally, a strong Wu family
said in a low voice: “Do we have such an ancient ancestor?”
Yes, I brought it.”
Saying this, the Patriarch of the Wu family took out an ancient book, this ancient book is very thick, it is made of ice silkworm jade silk, but it has yellowed and lacks, there is no doubt that this It has been passed down for millions of years or even longer.
The Patriarch of the Wu family flipped through this ancient book. On this ancient book, all the pasts of their family were recorded, as well as the ancestors and deeds of their family, and there were also portraits of the ancestors. The ancient ancestor is already blurred, but the outline is still recognizable.
“Okay, it doesn’t seem to be there.” After briefly flipping through it, the Patriarch of the Wu family couldn’t help muttering.
“Then, then he is not our ancient ancestor, or he is just a fellow who is practicing here.” A strong martial artist said in a low voice.
Regarding this point of view, many disciples of the Wu family nodded secretly. In fact, the Patriarch of the Wu family also felt the same way. After all, they had read this ancient book of the family many times.
The young man in front of him couldn’t match any of the ancient ancestors of their family. He took out the family’s ancient books and looked through them, just because he was afraid that he might miss something.
“Not necessarily.” At this time, Ming Zu pondered for a while, and turned the ancient book to the end. At the end of the ancient book, there were still a lot of blank paper, which meant that the person who compiled it back then had not finished writing the book. Ancient books, or left blank for future generations.
In this yellowed blank paper, when I turned to one of the pages at the back, this page was not a guest book anymore. There was a portrait drawn on it. This portrait looked blurry with only a few strokes, but, faintly , still can see a silhouette, this is a young man.
And next to such a portrait, there are still pen marks. It seems that the person who compiled this ancient book wanted to write some notes or words on this portrait, but it is very likely that he hesitated, or did not want to write. It is certain that there are other factors. In the end, he did not write any footnotes on the portrait, nor did he say who the person in the portrait was.
“That’s it, I’ve turned to it before.” Mingzu whispered, his expression suddenly became serious. As the patriarch of the martial arts family, Ming Zu had also read this ancient book, more than once.
“This—” Seeing this portrait left behind alone shocked the Patriarch of the Wu family. It was kept alone without any markings.
At this time, the Patriarch of the Wu family couldn’t help but raise the ancient book in his hand, comparing it with Li Qiye who was sitting cross-legged in front.
There are only a few strokes in the portrait, and the strokes are a bit blurry. I don’t know if it’s because of the age, or because the painter was hesitant to write. In short, the painting is not clear, it looks like it’s just an outline, and it’s not a full-face portrait. , is a profile portrait.
I don’t know if it was because the person who drew this portrait was thinking about it, or because he didn’t know the person’s appearance, so he could only draw a rough outline, or because for various reasons, only one profile was left. Face.
No matter what it is, the portraits in the ancient books are indeed not clear and look blurry, but in the blur, the outline of a person can still be seen.
Therefore, at this time, the Patriarch of the Wu family compared the outline on the ancient book with Li Qiye in front of him.
“Does it look like it?” The Patriarch of the Wu family couldn’t believe it and turned his body sideways when he compared it. When the body was tilted, he compared Li Qiye with the side face in the portrait.
At this time, the disciples of the Wu family couldn’t help but tilt their bodies sideways. After careful comparison, they all found that they were indeed somewhat similar.
“Yes, yes, there is some resemblance.” After careful comparison, the disciples of the Wu family couldn’t help but whispered.
“This, this, maybe this is just a coincidence?” Some disciples couldn’t help questioning in a low voice. After all, in the portrait, it was just the outline of a side face, and it was very blurry, and the specific lines could not be seen clearly.
Therefore, under such circumstances, it is impossible to determine that the young man in front of him is the person in the portrait just from the profile.
“What if, isn’t it?” A strong martial artist couldn’t help hesitating for a moment in his heart. After all, for a family, if he mistakenly recognizes his ancient ancestor, or recognizes a fake as his ancient ancestor, that is a big deal. a dangerous thing.
“Then, what should we do?” Some disciples of the Wu family also felt that they should not recognize each other rashly.
An old man from the Wu family said in a deep voice: “It’s better to be cautious. In case something happens, it may deal a big blow to our family.
” Disciple, I am more or less worried in my heart, afraid of admitting the wrong ancestor.
“Why is there such a portrait on the last few pages?” A strong warrior from the martial arts family also had such a question.
This ancient book records various deeds of their martial arts family, as well as the ancient ancestors of their martial arts family, including portraits.
However, such a portrait was left alone at the end of the ancient book, sandwiched between the blank pages, which made the later disciples of the Wu family wonder why there was such a blurry portrait left here alone? Could it be said that it was drawn by the editors at that time.
“It shouldn’t be drawn casually.” Mingzu said in a deep voice: “This ancient book was drawn by Jizu. Among the ancestors of our martial arts family, Jizu has always been famous for his rigorous learning and wide knowledge. It is impossible for him to draw a random portrait and leave it blank behind.” Ming Zu’s words made the disciples of the Wu family all look at each other.
Especially the other elders of the Wu family also felt that Ming Zu’s words were justified. After all, Ji Zu was indeed a famous ancestor in the history of their Wu family, and his knowledge was extremely extensive, and his studies were also very rigorous.
“I’m afraid this has a deep meaning.” Mingzu couldn’t help but whispered.
Ji Zu left such a portrait on the last few pages of the ancient book. It is absolutely impossible to draw it casually, or there must be a reason for it. However, Ji Zu did not mark anything in the end. As for the reason , which makes it impossible to discuss.
“Then, what should we do then?” At this moment, the Patriarch of the Wu family couldn’t help but hesitate.
“I admit it.” Mingzu pondered for a moment, gritted his teeth, and made a bold decision.
“Really?” The Patriarch of the Wu family couldn’t help but be startled, such a decision is quite hasty, after all, this is to recognize the ancient ancestor, what if the young man in front of him is not the ancient ancestor of his family?
“Yes.” Mingzu looked solemn.
The Patriarch of the Wu family took a deep breath and looked at the other elders.
The other elders also looked at each other, you look at me, I look at you.
