"No problem!"
Chen Yu flashed an OK sign, eager to give it a try.
"Don't get too excited." Seeing this, the young man patted Chen Yu on the shoulder, "The first ti I was fortunate enough to enter the Great Hall of Ancestors, I was just as excited as you are. All those ancestors sleeping there are famous heroes in history. Just don't go committing any taboos out of admiration."
"Absolutely."
After a quick hug with Chen Yu, the young man in the baseball cap bowed deeply to the old man with the white beard and left.
"By the way," Chen Yu suddenly asked, "Hey man, did your dad die?"
The young man almost tripped and fell to the ground.
Regaining his balance, he turned back in embarrassnt, "Are you sick? What nonsense are you spouting?"
"Then why is your dad in the tomb?"
"Do not disrespect the Great Emperor again," frowned the old man with the white beard, "Communicating and understanding the will of the ancestors is key for every A-grade to enhance their strength."
"Makes dead sense!" Chen Yu realized.
"My father is just ditating in seclusion," the young man said with a displeased expression.
"Got it, got it, you can go now."
After a deep look at Chen Yu, the young man no longer hesitated, activated his ability, and flew toward the dark green palace in the distance.
Chen Yu turned to look at the old man.
The old man waved, "You should go too."
"Let's go!"
Chen Yu, filled with excitent, lifted his leg and ran out of the cabin, flying toward the distance, following behind the young man.
Old man: "I told you to go to the ancestors' tomb!"
"Oh right, went the wrong way."
Chen Yu slapped his forehead and hurriedly returned.
He jumped through the small underground wooden door outside the gate and entered the first level of the ancestral tomb.
Watching Chen Yu's impatient deanor, the old man with the white beard was silent for a while and then couldn't help but give a gentle smile.
Recalling his own past, when he faced the ancestors, he was just as restless.
It's hard for any human to remain calm, isn't it...
...
"Thud!"
Falling from the upper door into the first level of the human clan's ancestral tomb.
Chen Yu quickly scanned his surroundings and found himself in a small compartnt.
Directly in front of the compartnt stood the "stone wall" ntioned by the young man in the baseball cap.
It was filled with densely packed rules and regulations, a frawork of thousands of words!
Chen Yu did not overlook this information; instead, he took the ti to read it carefully for half an hour.
As everyone knows, impressive "tombs" are often riddled with traps.
One wrong move, and you could easily end up dead on the spot.
So Chen Yu read very carefully.
In the end, he learned that there were no hidden weapons in this nine-level human clan's ancestral tomb.
After all, it was always guarded by A-grade supres, and each level had a strong guardian beast skilled in tomb managent.
If a foreign enemy actually managed to break in, it would an that the human clan was on the brink of extinction.
There was no point in setting traps...
"Nice!"
"Good that there are no traps!"
"Whoosh—"
He opened his backpack, took out his folding military shovel, and Chen Yu, full of enthusiasm, walked around the stone wall and out of the compartnt.
He officially entered the first level of the human clan's ancestral tomb.
Stepping out of the compartnt, the view opened up dramatically!
In front of him was a straight and clean Jade Stone Avenue!
Both sides were densely lined with hundreds of gravestones.
At first glance, there was an overwhelming feeling of solemnity and reverence.
And in the middle of Jade Stone Avenue lay a large dog, over two ters long.
From its appearance and the patterns on its body, Chen Yu guessed that it was a Husky...
At the mont, the Husky was just lying down, not sleeping. Its pair of dull grey eyes fixedly stared at Chen Yu.
It didn't bare its teeth.
It didn't wag its tail either.
It was just quietly looking, as if it were looking at another dog.
Chen Yu stood there, quietly looking back at it, as if he too were looking at a dog.
Chen Yu: "..."
Husky: "..."
Chen Yu: "Hello there."
Husky: "..."
Chen Yu: "Let introduce myself, mutt, I'm your daddy."
Husky: "..."
Seeing that the Husky was still indifferent, Chen Yu let down his guard, "It's good that you don't understand human speech."
"I'm about to do sothing big next, so don't block ," Chen Yu muttered, putting down his backpack and picking up his military shovel, looking around for a target: "Otherwise, don't bla for turning you into stew."
Husky: "..."
The large dog remained silent, continuing to watch Chen Yu quietly.
"Which one to dig first..."
Chen Yu walked further in along a lateral path from Jade Stone Avenue, checking the gravestones on both sides as he went.
He tried to identify big shots through the "biographies" on these gravestones.
But as he walked, he realized that these "epitaphs" didn't specify the strengths or abilities of these individuals.
In fact, most of the epitaphs were quite absurd.
For example: Died in a traffic accident, the other party was totally at fault.
Chen Yu: "..."
For example: Looking for flatmates for a three-bedroom apartnt, only handso guys need apply.
Chen Yu: "..."
Another example: In the midst of gene recombination, please patiently wait eighteen years.
Chen Yu: "..."
Yet another: Life is exhausting; I'm leaving first, you all do as you please.
And another: Bye-bye.
"These ancestors..."
"...are quite humorous."
Continuing to walk for a few minutes, Chen Yu finally stopped in front of a tombstone in a corner.
There was no na engraved on the stele.
There was just one line of small text: Minor matters call for summoning spirits; major matters call for digging up graves.
Chen Yu: "..."
Chen Yu: "Ancestor, I'm here for a big issue!"
With that, he picked up the military shovel, ready to start his work.
But as soon as he made a move, he caught a glimpse of a large dark shadow, which startled him so much that he jumped!
Turning to look, it was the Husky sitting just one ter away, glaring at him intently.
