Chapter 494 The Hidden Secret

But when I saw the first four ancient paintings, I understood. This is the story that the village chief told me yesterday. The general riding the tall horse should be the ghost general, the ancestor of the ghost family.

Judging from the general's armor and the villager's attire, it really is the costume of the Song Dynasty, but this is a bit contradictory.Why did the murals and steles of the Eastern Jin Dynasty appear in the Ghost Ancestor Temple at the same time as the ink paintings of the Song Dynasty?

These two dynasties are separated by 600 years. What is the connection between them?Could it be because of that ghost general?

I looked at the other furnishings in the front hall, and there was nothing worth noting except for the murals and ink paintings. Then the village chief took us out of the front hall and went outside.

But on the road leading to the nave, there are two people in black padded clothes wandering around, as if they are patrolling in this ghost ancestral temple. I really can't figure out what is there to guard in this ancestral temple?
Unless there are some ulterior secrets hidden in this Ghost Ancestral Temple...

The village chief asked the three of us to stop for a while, and he ran towards the two of them. The three of them whispered and didn't know what they were talking about, and the two of them glanced at us from time to time.

I originally thought that I came from the same line as them, that they were all cursed and miserable people, and they should trust and help each other.But now it seems that the village chief doesn't really trust me, and when I mentioned the Paradise of Elysium just now, it's obvious that all of them have changed their attitude towards us, as if they were wary of something.

It seems that I have to find a way to win their trust first, so that they will reveal the secrets about the Elysium to me...

Not long after, the village chief came back, and he said politely, "I'm sorry, there has been a situation in our village recently, so everyone is very nervous, as if facing a big enemy."

"What happened?" I asked curiously.

"Recently there are rumors that there is a parchment scroll in an ancient tomb, which records the entrance to the Paradise of Ultimate Bliss, and this parchment scroll is in the hands of a Taoist named Zuo Yangchuan... I am sure you also know about this Are you okay?" the village chief asked, looking into my eyes.

"Not only do I know, but I have also been to that ancient tomb..." I didn't hide anything, after all, the village head and Gui Sanqi belonged to the same family, maybe he was testing me.

If I keep hiding it, he will definitely distrust me even more, so I truthfully told the original things.

The village head nodded, and then said: "I don't know who spread the rumor that my ghost gate village is the entrance to the paradise. Recently, outsiders have always broken in. Fortunately, our village and ghost gate The relationship is very close, so there is no trouble. But I am worried that the peace in front of me will not last long, and the battle of becoming a feather every Jiazi year may be staged in our village..."

"The battle of eternity..." I am no stranger to these four words. I was born in that dispute 16 years ago. It was a bloody storm.

"Right now, only by finding the traitor Zuo Yangchuan of the Quanzhen Longmen Sect and finding the parchment scroll can we prove that the entrance to the Paradise of Ultimate Bliss is not in our village, and our village can be saved from this catastrophe... Sigh, count Forget about it, the next step is the nave, come with me." The village chief said with a sigh.

When I came to the nave, I looked up and saw that there were three golden characters on the plaque above, "Ghost Ancestor Hall". It seemed that the nave should be dedicated to the statue and tablet of the ghost general...
