A Mysterious Journey Through the Shang Dynasty

After coming out of the secret room, Mo Yu and I were both immersed in the shock and contemplation of the totem. We knew that the pattern behind the Mo family totem we just saw was full of mystery, and there must be deeper secrets hidden in it.

We could not wait to return to the library and dive into the piles of ancient books again, hoping to find more clues about totems from these ancient texts.

Mo Yu was focused, flipping through the books one by one, his eyes revealing determination and persistence. "Su Yao, I think we are getting closer and closer to the truth. This totem must have a special meaning, and we can't miss any clues." I nodded, also concentrating on looking for possible useful information.

After a long period of effort, we finally found a vague record in an extremely ancient document. It mentioned that during the Shang Dynasty, some mysterious forces were circulating in the world, and the totems of various ancient families seemed to be inextricably linked to them.

We were very excited. This record seemed to have opened a new door for us. We began to speculate that the totems of these ancient families might be symbols or clues to those mysterious powers. In order to further explore these mysterious powers, we realized that we had to find a way to collect the totems of the eight major families.

Mo Yu frowned and said, "It is not easy to collect the totems of the eight major families. These families regard their totems as treasures and guard them strictly. Each family has a long history and profound heritage, and they attach more importance to totems than you can imagine. Some families worship their totems in secret holy places, and only the core members of the family know their specific locations; some families set up many mechanisms and guards to prevent outsiders from approaching the totems. Moreover, there may be competition and conflicts between these families. It is conceivable how difficult it is to get them to come up with totems together." I was also deeply worried, but I still said firmly, "No matter how difficult it is, we must try. Perhaps only by collecting these totems can we truly unlock the ancient secrets of the Shang Dynasty."

We decided to start with the families that had a good relationship with the Mo family. We carefully prepared gifts and sincere words to visit the elders of those families. However, things did not go as smoothly as we imagined. These families were full of doubts and vigilance about our request and rejected us one after another.

But we did not give up and continued to look for other ways. We began to inquire about the news about other family totems in every corner of the royal city, hoping to find some opportunities for breakthroughs. At the same time, we are constantly studying the clues we have already obtained, trying to find reasons to convince other families.

In this process, we encountered countless difficulties and setbacks, but we never gave up. We knew that collecting the totems of the eight major families was the key to unlocking the ancient secrets of the Shang Dynasty, and we had to persevere.

Just when we felt helpless, the dark creatures attacked the town. They came fiercely, like a tide, and people fell into great panic. The whole town fell into chaos in an instant. Each family organized forces to resist, but the dark creatures were numerous and powerful, and the situation was very critical.

Mo Yu looked at the chaotic scene, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes: "This attack came too suddenly, I always feel that there is something fishy." I also felt nervous: "Is there some conspiracy behind this?"

As the battle progressed, we found that the attack of the dark creatures did not seem to be accidental. Their actions had a clear goal, and they seemed to be looking for something deliberately. We began to wonder if this attack was related to the totems of the eight major families? Perhaps the dark creatures also sensed the mysterious power contained in the totems and wanted to seize them.

After some investigation and analysis, we are more and more certain that the dark creatures' attack on the town is a conspiracy. There seems to be a mysterious force behind it, manipulating all of this, with the purpose of causing chaos and taking the opportunity to seize the totems of the eight families.

However, our investigation and suspicion made the eight families wary of us. They began to suspect that we were related to the attacks of the dark creatures and that we had other intentions. We fell into the dilemma of being suspected by the eight families.

Mo Yu frowned, "This is troublesome. We must find a way to prove our innocence, otherwise the plan to collect totems will be more difficult." I also anxiously thought about countermeasures, "We must find evidence as soon as possible to make the eight major families believe that we are on their side."

In this crisis-ridden moment, we must act cautiously, dealing with the threat of dark creatures, resolving the suspicions of the eight major families, and working hard to uncover the ancient secrets of the Shang Dynasty.
