Chapter 1006 Origin of the Ghost Clan

The head of the sect nodded slightly, and I quickly asked again: "But why did the errand mistook the ancestor for a lonely ghost? No matter how bad the errand is, it wouldn't make such a low-level mistake, right?"

The head of the gate sighed again and said, "At that time, the Five Husbands were in disorder, do you know how many Han people died?"

"I really studied the history of that dark period carefully on the Internet before. According to records, four-fifths of the Han people died, and the Chinese nation was almost wiped out!" I said.

"Yes, that period of time can be said to be a hell on earth. In fact, not only the world, but also the Underworld was in chaos. So many people died in just a few years, whether it was the ghosts of the Underworld or ghost officials. Both judges and ghost generals are extremely busy, and the underworld servants at the bottom are far short of manpower, so they will inevitably be negligent in their haste, and mistakenly send the living people who are still alive to the underworld." The door master said.

"Is this how our ghost clan became half-human and half-ghost?" I asked in surprise.

"That's right. Later, those errants realized their mistake, and threw us back into the world like trash. But after this, the bodies of our family changed, and we became ghouls and half-humans. Human half ghost..." the door master said.

But while I was surprised, I also felt a little strange. I always felt that something was missing, like some important process was missing...

Perhaps the sect master saw that I showed doubts, so he quickly said: "But at first our ancestors were not as dehumanized, bloodthirsty, and crazy as today's pure-blooded people. At first, they just couldn't see the sun, and they had to rely on food to eat. The dead live on human flesh, our ancestors can only live in dark caves, next to the cemetery. Our ancestors lived a life of neither humans nor ghosts, hiding during the day and hunting at night..."

"hunting……"

"That is to pick up corpses. At that time, the most indispensable thing was dead corpses. There were more dead people than living people. Because we have lived in cemeteries and other places with a heavy atmosphere for a long time, our Ghost Clan has changed over time, and finally became like The pure-blooded ghouls you see are the same," said the door master.

I let out a long sigh of relief and nodded. I didn't expect that our Gui clan evolved in this way. Today I finally solved the mystery of the Han people going south, and also understood the grievances between our Gui clan and the underworld.

It stands to reason that the sect master's narration is very logical, and there is nothing wrong with it, but I always feel that something is missing, and there are some discrepancies with what I have discovered in the past two years.

I thought hard about what was wrong, and suddenly remembered the record on the stone wall of the blood pond in Murong Chui's underground palace. There were several words written on it, namely Xuzhou, Nanxia, ​​ancient tree, Yangshou, Xanadu, short...

Apart from the word ancient tree, I already understand the other words now.But after listening to the narration of the master of the ghost word gate, I still can't understand the meaning of this ancient tree.

I remember, on the bronze coffin of Murong Chui's coffin, the embroidery on the ghost doctor's bellyband, and the ancient stone monument standing in front of the front hall of the Ghost Ancestral Temple, all of which depict a towering ancient tree!
I couldn't help asking what was on my mind, but the sect master shook his head and said that he didn't know what kind of ancient tree it was, and I looked at the ghost mother-in-law, and she didn't even know.

Maybe it's because I was always deceived when I was growing up, and the enemies I met were all insidious and cunning, plus my second uncle Zhao Guizhen's instructions, I became very suspicious. hide……
