Tomb Robber: Oops, I think I met a tomb robber.

Zhang Haixia: Baby, are you talking about the group of ancestors in our clan?

Zhang Haiqing: That should be it, one red hair and three white hairs, it matches.

Zhang Haike: What? Ancestor? Didn't you say that once fifteen years ago?

Zhang Haixing: Huh? What the hell? I remember you guys did mention a group of ancestors in the clan land fifteen years ago, but now you're telling me these ancestors are the same ones Ah Ling saw during the Tang Dynasty?

Zhang Hailou: This, how many years has he lived?

Zhang Qianjunwanma: This is unreasonable...

When Zhang Rishan and Zhang Xiaoyu saw the content in the chat group, they looked at each other almost at the same time, their eyes full of shock. At the same time, they took out the small notebooks they carried with them and talked to each other privately.

Zhang Rishan: My baby was crying yesterday because he couldn't see them. I didn't expect they still exist. This, this is too...

Zhang Xiaoyu: Apart from anything else, my baby will definitely be very happy, and she won’t have to be sad about this matter anymore.

Zhang Rishan: Yes, baby, it’s better for you to be happy.

While the two of them were secretly writing and passing notes, messages were still being sent in the chat group.

Wu Xie: Huh?! Are all your Zhang family ancestors still alive?

Hei Xia Zi: Brothers, you are joking, right? It has been more than 1,200 years since the Tang Dynasty. The life expectancy of your Zhang family is only 200 to 300 years at most. How could they live to this day?

Zhang Haixu: Not alive, dead.

Xie Yuchen: Dead...dead?

Zhang Haiqing: We died decades ago, and when we discovered that we could still exist as souls after death, we went to the Zhang family land as a team, wanting to see if there were other ghosts of the Zhang family. We also wanted to find out why we could become ghosts. Unexpectedly, we met our ancestors when we got there, and they were also ghosts, and... they were terrifyingly powerful.

Zhang Haixia: Yes, there were indeed ghosts like us in the Zhang family’s land at that time, but the number was not large, probably less than a hundred. Two-thirds of them were ancestors wearing ancient costumes and long hair, and the rest were ghosts of the same generation as us. They were of the mountain lineage, just like you, Zhang Rishan.

Zhang Rishan:??? Why are you still talking about my business?

Zhang Haichen: Yes, yes. Many of their names have the character "山" in their veins. In addition, there are also some that have no character "山" in their veins like us. I don’t know if they changed their names later or what the situation is.

Hei Xia Zi: Hey, hey, hey, let's not get off topic. The main point is our ancestors! Your ancestors' ghosts have actually survived for thousands of years! Does that make sense?!

Zhang Hailou: ...It's truly outrageous. Although I'm a half-Zhang family member who came in later, I also want to say, are all of you Zhang family members so perverted? Will those of us who are still alive become ghosts like you after we die?

Zhang Haiqing: I’m not sure about that. I only know that they are very powerful, so powerful that it’s terrifying. They are no longer ordinary ghosts.

Wu Xie: ...You don’t mean to say that your ancestors have evolved and turned into ghost immortals, right?

Zhang Haixu: ...You can call it that if you want. When we got there, we barely got close to the outskirts of the clan territory, but we already felt an astonishing sense of oppression, as if...we, a group of little ghosts, had met the King of Ghosts.

Zhang Haichen: They are separate from the group of ghosts from the Shanzimai clan and are not together. The Shanzimai clan is on the periphery, and they are deep in the clan's territory.

Black Blind Man: Didn't you talk to them at the time? Why did you only realize it was theirs now that my baby told you?

Zhang Haiqing: That group of ancestors ignored us. They kept meditating and didn't respond at all. We had no idea what their names were.

Wu Xie: Meditation...it sounds like cultivation, just like in novels.

Xie Yuchen: Didn't we just say they were terrifyingly powerful? Could it be because they can cultivate? Ghosts that have cultivated for thousands of years are ghost immortals.

Hei Xia Zi: Haha, it really is getting more and more mysterious. I wouldn’t be surprised if one day you told me that someone can become an immortal.

Zhang Haike: ...Blind man, A Ling is the ancestor Qilin, do you still remember?

Black Blind Man: ...

Zhang Haixia: In short, we know that the group of people that Baby met in the Tang Dynasty are the ancestors of our clan. Should we tell her?

Zhang Xiaoyu: My baby was crying yesterday because she couldn’t see them. She cried very hard. You should tell her so that she won’t be sad about this anymore.

Zhang Haike: Sure, and you guys also said that those ancestors are very powerful. Maybe they can help us eliminate the Wang family? Perhaps we can use Ah Ling to ask the ancestors to take action.

Zhang Haixing: Let's put this matter aside for now, brother. The main thing is to let A-ling get to know them first. We can talk about the Wang family's matter later. A-ling has helped us so much. We shouldn't take advantage of her kindness and affection.

Zhang Haike: Sorry, I went too far.

Zhang Rishan: Wait, don’t tell A Ling yet. I think we need to discuss this matter first.

Zhang Xiaoyu: Rishan?

Zhang Haiqing: What’s the matter?

Zhang Rishan: If those ancestors are really the ones that Aling knew in the Tang Dynasty... maybe you should first know some information about them, get to know them a little in advance, and then consider whether you really want Aling to meet them and wake them up.

As soon as Zhang Rishan said this, Zhang Xiaoyu, Wu Xie and the other two immediately remembered the information they had found before, and their hearts suddenly tightened.

Previously, they had searched for information about Zhang Daojun and Zhang Daozhen when Qiuyue was still in ancient times. Although it was some historical records and not completely their own information, some of the information in it was enough to prove how evil this group of people were. Now that they have cultivated into ghost immortals, they have definitely become more terrifying than when they were still alive. If they really want to wake them up, the first thing they should consider is whether they still recognize Qiuyue after a thousand years, whether they still have their own consciousness, and whether they have not turned into evil spirits.

If the ones awakened were a group of evil ghosts that had lost their minds, how could they possibly stop them with just a few mortal bodies and a group of ghosts that were no match for them?

Zhang Haike: Zhang Rishan, have you looked up any information about your ancestors? Or something else?

Seeing this, Zhang Rishan did not hold back and directly told the whole series of things, including how the light screen first appeared, how he met Qiuyue, how he got to know Zhang Daojun and others through Qiuyue's words, and how he used this to find their information. At the same time, he also sent out some historical records about Zhang Daojun and Zhang Daozhen. All of them were about the deeds of the two in ancient times, highlighting their evil abilities.

There are only two of them, one is a prime minister who is still famous today, and the other is a general who is known as the god of war. Any one of them would be enough to make your scalp tingle. What's more, they have practiced for more than a thousand years and become the legendary ghost immortals. What's even more terrifying is that there are dozens of such guys. If they really become evil ghosts, it is unknown whether the world will become hell after awakening.

After Zhang Rishan posted their historical records, the entire group suddenly became quiet. Only Wu Xie and the other two who had also seen the information were still talking.

Wu Xie: I understand what you mean. You are afraid that they have been ghosts for more than a thousand years and have lost their own consciousness, right?

Xie Yuchen: This is indeed something we need to pay attention to. If they have already turned into evil spirits, then we really need to think carefully about whether we really should let A Ling wake them up.

Hei Xia Zi: Ha, they were so powerful before they died, and now they have been practicing for more than a thousand years. Any one of them can take our lives, let alone dozens of them. If they really turn into evil spirits, after they wake up, our world will not become purgatory, right?

Zhang Xiaoyu: But... the baby is the Ancestral Qilin. Can she suppress them?

Zhang Rishan: Xiaoyu, what you should think about is how sad your baby will be.

Zhang Xiaoyu: ...Yeah, that’s right...

Zhang Haixiong: Just now, Zhang Rishan, you said that A Ling cried very hard yesterday. If they really turned into evil ghosts, A Ling would probably cry even harder.

Zhang Haike: Your concerns are not without reason, so what should we do now? Should we let A Ling know about them, or not?

Zhang Hailou: I think it’s better not to do it.

Zhang Xiaoyu: I would rather let A Ling know and not hide it from her.

Zhang Haiqing: I also prefer to let A Ling know. Although she may be sad, I believe A Ling can get through this. If I don’t tell her, she will keep waiting. Instead of letting her keep thinking about it in her heart, it is better to tell her directly and give her an answer.

Zhang Haixiong: What Hai Qing said is quite right. It will not be so painful if we cut the Gordian knot quickly. If we don’t tell A Ling, she will keep waiting. Time may not make A Ling forget, but it will definitely make her suffer from dull pain for a long time.

……

Just as the group was chatting enthusiastically, Qiuyue looked up with some confusion.

After she finished speaking, and Zhang Haixia hugged her and said a few words to comfort her, the others seemed to be lost in thought, and no one spoke anymore. If it weren't for their occasional thoughtful or troubled expressions, she would have felt as if time had frozen.

Qiuyue blinked, raised her hand and touched the two little ones who were still eating pastries, while quietly waiting for them to speak.

They looked like they were thinking about something very serious, so she decided to wait for them before speaking and not disturb their thoughts.

This was the situation when Xiao Fubao came. He had been busy outside checking how many people on the destiny line there were, and thinking about how to arrange a meeting between Qiuyue and them. As a result, he was so busy that he forgot to come in to check. When he came in, he saw Qiuyue playing with Tu Lu Wumian, while the others were standing there in a daze, motionless.
