Lin Yi didn't think that he'd be going to Hakunamata Desert again in such a short amount of time.
The car sped all the way, and it didn't take long for them to reach the highway in Pengbei City. Donghai was quite close, and Lin Yi saw Xiaoxiao's Land Rover at the waiting area not far away.
Lin Yi honked twice, and Dake nodded. The two headed towards Hakunamata Desert, one in front and one in the back.
This was their second time going, and the two were familiar with the route. They finally reached the Yu house the next day.
The place had returned to its usual peacefulness. After the Gu family left, they really didn't come back, and it seemed like they didn't dare to come back anymore. Their backer was killed by Lin Yi, so why would they dare to come back?
"Where's the ancestral hall? Let's go? "Lin Yi said.
"Okay!" Dake was concerned about his sister's situation as well, and he brought Lin Yi to a courtyard after a series of twists and turns. There was an ancient building in the courtyard, and this was most likely the ancestral hall of House Yu.
Lin Yi hadn't seen a real ancestral hall, but he'd seen similar ones on TV, and this place looked quite similar.
But, just as Dake was about to enter the ancestral hall, he stopped abruptly, and his face changed! He pointed at a plaque in the ancestral hall, a little angry. "Mister Lin, look …"
Lin Yi raised his head and saw the words "Gu Family Ancestral Hall" written on the plaque. This made Lin Yi frown! What did this mean? Gu Family Ancestral Hall? Could it be that the memorial tablets here had all been replaced by the Gu Family's?
At the thought, Lin Yi rushed in, and as expected, all the tablets were Gu's. There were no Yu's, and this made Lin Yi very annoyed!
The Gu family had lived here for more than ten years. He must have replaced all the tablets in the ancestral hall with his own. No one would worship someone else's tablet. Wasn't there something wrong with that?
Moreover, Gu's son must have run away in a hurry and didn't have time to take these tablets with him, so he left them here! That Gu's son wasn't a filial person. Even if he thought of it, he probably wouldn't take it away.
However … Then where did the memorial tablets of the Yu Family go? Back then, Lin Yi had not paid attention to this. If he had known earlier, he would have asked his son Gu. Now, he could only search for it himself.
Yu Dake's face was also very gloomy. There were no Yu family members here. Where could he find the ancestral tablets?
"Mr. Lin. Let's split up and look for it. Let's see if we've lost the tablet somewhere. " Yu Dake could only say that he was trying to find it. After all, the tablet was likely to be lost by the Gu Family, so it was definitely impossible to find it.
"Alright, that's the only way! However, let's go to the previous underground treasure vault to look for it. Maybe there's something there? "Lin Yi suggested.
"Okay." Yu Dake nodded. The Yu Family's treasure vault was used as a warehouse by the Gu Family. The last time they went there was to find Yu Xiaoke's Nuwa Heaven Mending Technique. They didn't pay attention to other things. Maybe the tablets were inside.
The two went to the warehouse. It was a mess. After the Gu Family took over, there were a lot of things placed there. They didn't know what they were. The two went to the left and right and began to search for the tablets in the warehouse.
It could be said that they overturned the chests and cabinets. The two tossed and turned from night to the next morning. However, to their disappointment. They couldn't find the tablets! It seemed that the Gu Family didn't leave the tablets here!
But thinking about it, it was understandable. After all, the Gu Family didn't want to keep other people's tablets. However, it made Lin Yi and Yu Dake a little depressed.
"Let's go to other places to look. Don't be discouraged. " Both of them were practitioners. This level of physical exhaustion wasn't a problem. Thus, the two left the warehouse and began to search the house.
From the moment the sun rose in the morning until the sun set, the sky was filled with stars. The two of them almost ran through the entire house, but they still couldn't find where the memorial tablet was thrown.
If they guessed correctly, the Yu Family tablets should've been thrown away. After all, the house had changed its name. Who would be willing to put other people's tablets here? How unlucky would that be?
"Sigh!" Yu Dake sighed. "I don't know where the Gu Family went. There's no one to ask now …"
"If they threw it away, there's no point asking them. If they didn't throw it away, we can find it." Lin Yi patted Yu Dake's shoulder and comforted him. "Let's go to the ancestral hall again! Maybe it's in a corner! "
"Okay." Yu Dake thought that Lin Yi was right, so he stood up and walked to the ancestral hall with Lin Yi. Before, they didn't search the ancestral hall carefully, so they went back at this time.
The ancestral hall also had electric lights. Although the house was antique, it had already been integrated with modern civilization. The two began to search in the ancestral hall, but after searching for a long time, they didn't find anything.
After all, the ancestral hall wasn't big, and there weren't many things in it. Everything was clear at a glance.
Yu Dake sighed and sat on the ground helplessly.
"Dake, I want to ask you. You said that the ancestor's life log is behind the tablets?" Lin Yi suddenly thought of a very important question. The tablets are so big. How long can a person's life log be? Can it be written on it? At most, it can only be a few sentences, right?
"No …" As Yu Dake said this, he suddenly stood up and slapped his thigh. "Yes! The life log is placed in the wooden trough directly below the tablets! "
As he said this, Yu Dake quickly ran in front of a tablet and reached out to knock it to the ground. Then, he dug a few times under the tablet. The wooden trough under the tablet opened like a mechanism!
After removing the small cover on top, there was a space below, and in the space, there was a book that looked like a small booklet!
On the booklet, the words "Yu Dengtian" were written.
Yu Dengtian, this was obviously a member of the Yu Family. This explained a problem, that was, the Gu Family didn't find a small mechanism under the tablet to place the life log. They only threw the tablet on top, but they didn't find the life log in the secret compartment below.
