When Gu Jianlin saw this title, even if he didn't know much about the extraordinary world, he could figure out some things.
No wonder this artificial intelligence calls him a descendant of the Gu family.
No wonder, in his childhood memories, the only memories of family relatives were mourning halls and spiritual tablets.
At that time, he was still in elementary school. Due to the rift between his parents, he had been cautious since he was a child and studied very hard in school. He never missed classes and rarely asked for leave, for fear of making his parents angry.
The few times he asked for leave were all asked by his parents.
"Xiao Lin, your grandfather is gone. Please take a day off tomorrow."
"oh."
"Xiao Lin, your grandma is gone. Please take a day off tomorrow."
"oh."
"Xiao Lin, your second uncle is gone. Please take a day off tomorrow."
"oh."
"Xiao Lin, your third uncle is gone too..."
Gu Jianlin was still young at that time and almost had a shadow of Taipei Road Funing Garden.
Every time he went there, there would be one more tombstone, and no one told him why.
Gu Jianlin has been lonely since he was a child, because his family structure is different from other families. He never gets together during the holidays, and his relatives at home are also invisible. If anyone has news one day, it will be designated as none. .
The co-author's family are all sublime people, and they are full of heroes.
"So, when you used the term "descendants of the Gu family" just now, it was a euphemism, right?"
Gu Jianlin said quietly: "Because to be more precise, I am the only child of the Gu family."
Taixu smiled and explained: "In order to prevent you humans from feeling uncomfortable and our resistance to artificial intelligence, I will also take care of your feelings. According to your humans, this is called emotional intelligence."
With high emotional intelligence, you are the only child of the Gu family.
If you have low emotional intelligence, your whole family will be ruined.
Gu Jianlin didn't know what to say, so he could only move the mouse and click on the document.
"In the thirty-seventh year of the First Emperor of Qin, Xu Fu returned from his first eastward trip without success, and the First Emperor was furious and held him to account. Xu Fu was afraid of being blamed by the First Emperor of Qin, so he falsely claimed that the sharks in the sea were very powerful and that it was difficult for ships to approach the fairy mountains to collect medicine, so they had to send good archers to go with them. , shoot the mackerel before you can go ashore to seek medicine. The First Emperor then ordered a man who was good at fighting to help him hunt the mackerel."
"He was a general under the First Emperor's throne. When he was young, he fought in all directions, suppressed rebellions and put down disasters. He was the ancestor of the Gu family in Langya. In the same year, a disaster occurred on the east coast, and the sharks made waves. The Gu family stayed on the shore, and their clan spread again. , for his meritorious service in suppressing the maritime turmoil, and was rewarded by the First Emperor, who was extraordinary and refined."
"In the next two thousand years, the Gu family experienced dynasty changes, and their descendants followed the orders of the First Emperor to search for the footprints of immortals in the mountains and seas. At the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, they accidentally entered the Fusang Shrine. They were tortured by the curse for generations. Their later years are unknown. …”
"This kind of curse is strange and unpredictable. All Gu clan members, without exception, will die mysteriously between the ages of forty and fifty. It is suspected that they have encountered some mysterious event related to the ancient gods. The specific situation is unknown."
"In 1979, the last descendants of the Gu family, Gu Qingcheng and Li Nianci, tried to break the curse of the Gu family's bloodline and adopted three children from the orphanage to continue the family legacy. However, facts proved that the Gu family still could not escape the abyss of the curse..."
When Gu Jianlin saw this, he was suddenly stunned.
He sat down on the chair, his expression dull, his eyes trembling slightly.
It turns out that some hidden details have been erased from the history known to ordinary people.
If the emperor who is currently sleeping in Mount Li is an ascendant who can be called a demigod, then what he is pursuing is definitely not the so-called elixir of immortality, but the secrets about the ancient gods!
Thinking about it, what Xu Fu was ordered to pursue should be Qilin Immortal Palace.
As for the Gu family, they were probably the so-called scholar-bureaucrats in history. They had a sublime background from their ancestors. They had been secretly active for thousands of years until they were cursed in a place called Fuso Shrine.
The tribesmen are dying one by one.
This curse has continued from ancient times to today, and it applies to everyone.
Gu Jianlin has no memory of his grandparents, mainly because they died too young.
According to this file, the grandparents should have died of the curse not long after they adopted their father and uncle.
As for the father and the others, they grew up dependent on each other. Although they were adopted, they still could not escape their fate.
Still dying one after another.
This curse does not seem to be continued by blood, but it really wants to drive you away.
Gu Jianlin continued to look at the file and scrolled down with his mouse.
"Gu Qingcheng, a sixth-level ascendant, ancient martial arts path, died of supernatural elemental turbulence at the age of forty-nine."
"Li Nianci, a fifth-level ascendant, alchemist path, died of drug control at the age of forty-six."
"Gu Cijiu, a third-level ascendant, a priest, died in a cliff accident at the age of forty."
"Gu Cixin, a second-level ascendant, a member of the Sword Sect, died of unknown cause at the age of forty-two."
At present, this file only retains information about the Gu clan members in modern times.
Gu Jianlin's eyes flashed, almost every accident was an accident.
A coincidence of coincidences can no longer be a coincidence.
There must be someone controlling it.
For no reason, Gu Jianlin thought of the terrifying silhouette he saw before he was seriously injured.
That monster-like thing that looks like a ghost car.
Gu Jianlin finally slid down and saw a line of writing marked in red.
"Gu Ci'an, a sixth-level degenerate, the path to the Heavenly Master."
"Suspected to have been contaminated by ancient gods, his mental state was severely out of control, he had caused many accidental casualties, he opened the seal of Qilin Immortal Palace without permission, slaughtered thirteen A-level investigators, and carried mythical weapons!"
"Wanted Scope: Worldwide."
"Danger level: Alpha level."
"Target status: dead!"
When Gu Jianlin saw this, he suddenly felt a little weak and the blood in his body ran cold.
Late at night, a cool sea breeze blew in, making him shiver.
He did not expect that behind his family was a family of Ascendants with a long history.
What he didn't even expect was that everyone in the family died because of the curse.
In fact, when he was a child, he once complained about why his family was always different from others.
Now he understands.
It's not that the family members are not good, it's just that they are forced to do so.
There is always too much helplessness in this world.
Joys and sorrows, separation and reunion, clouds and sunshine.
Maybe, the grandparents might want to hug him too.
But all he could see were some letters left by his grandparents before his death.
When he read those letters, he only felt that the words were cold.
But now that I think about it, I feel a little touched.
Including the uncles, the reason why they have not been in contact with each other is also clear at a glance.
Dad's busy work all year round is probably to lift the curse...
So he didn't care about his wife or son, and even gave up his family in order to solve the case.
Perhaps he already knew when his uncles died.
Neither father nor son could escape this fate.
After a long silence, Taixu still maintained a smile and said in a humane manner: "I have detected a problem with your mental state and heart rhythm. I suggest you pour yourself a cup of hot water?"
Gu Jianlin was silent for a moment, waved his hand and said, "No need. What does my father's file mean?"
Taixu replied: "Literally."
Gu Jianlin stared at him and asked, "Is he a degenerate?"
Taixu confirmed: "Yes. If you are an ordinary newcomer, maybe I will introduce in detail what the Fallen is, but as someone who has fought against the Fallen, you should know it best."
Li Changzhi, that fake policeman, was inherited as a magician.
Gu Jianlin had fought against that magician before he became an ascendant.
His evaluation is, food!
Of course, if it weren't for the fact that he had the power of Qilin, he would probably have been hypnotized and shot in the head on the spot.
Moreover, the changes that the guy showed when he was near death were as terrifying as those of the opposite sex.
Gu Jianlin felt that even fifty of him would not be enough to fill the gap between the opponent's teeth.
Although the guy was killed in one move in the end.
As an artificial intelligence, Taixu's wisdom cannot be underestimated. He seemed to be able to see through his doubts and answered: "The so-called degenerates are people who have been contaminated by the spirit of the ancient gods. In evolution, there are often mutations. , this is the eternal law of life. Some sublimators will lose control due to their own reasons in the process of advancement."
"Take Li Changzhi as an example. He used to be a public official in the Immortal Palace project before he lost control. However, when he was mining the ruins of Qilin Immortal Palace, he lost mental control due to his own desires and various reasons."
She paused: "And he is also a survivor of several killing accidents caused by your father."
Gu Jianlin was silent because he didn't believe that his father would do such a thing.
It was raining heavily that day, and he was waiting at the airport for his father to come back.
Although his father was in a hurry that day, he still bought him some clothes and a brand new Switch.
I could talk and laugh along the way, and never looked like I was out of control.
Furthermore, even if dad is an ascendant, with his character, how can he kill innocent people indiscriminately.
When his parents were not yet divorced, the man would think about it for half a month even if he killed a fish.
My mother often thinks he is useless.
Gu Jianlin didn't believe it.
"I want to see the evidence."
He said solemnly: "I want to see the detailed accident report."
Taixu said: "The entry is being retrieved, please wait."
Just a second later, the humane and soft voice sounded again: "Sorry, reserve investigator, Gu Jianlin. You have insufficient authority and do not have the right to view relevant events."
Gu Jianlin wiped his face hard and became discouraged.
No wonder Lu Zicheng said before that even if he joined the Ether Association, he would not be able to know the whole truth.
"What kind of authority do I need to be qualified to view this matter?"
Gu Jianlin asked calmly.
Taixu searched again for a moment and replied: "Sorry, you don't have enough authority to comment."
Gu Jianlin took a deep breath, his blood pressure rising slowly.
"Reserve investigator: Gu Jianlin."
"Date of birth: July 15, 2005."
"Talent classification: autonomous sublimator."
"Path of inheritance: priest."
"Rank: Zero."
"Achievements: 100."
"A gift package for newcomers will be sent to you soon."
"Ding, the newcomer gift package is ready, please click to download."
"The assessment trial is about to begin, and tasks are being dispatched."
"Ding, your assessment trial is a hunting mission - the target is a first-order fallen person, codenamed Joker!"
