Chapter 1267 Faceless Statue
[Ancient God] Town, nine years ago
"Tina, you are already ten years old this year. I will take you to a place later."
Frank took a little girl and walked on the street of the town and said:
"Remember not to make noise when you get there, understand?"
The girl Fatina nodded obediently and said:
"Yes, Tina knows."
But this also aroused Fatina's curiosity:
"Father, Tina can ask where we are going later?"
And Frank seemed to have expected Fatina to ask this question, and said seriously:
"That is our family's ancestral temple, where the former supreme leader of our family is enshrined."
"Do you remember the 'Ancient God' that your father told you about?"
Hearing this, the little girl's eyes suddenly lit up:
"Father, is the 'Ancient God' who can go to heaven and earth and is omnipotent?"
For some reason, Frank stopped here and did not continue.
The little girl looked at her father curiously.
But she did not ask any more questions, but just followed him silently.
Soon the two of them came to a restricted area in the center of the town. An hour later, they were told that they must not step into it.
There was the only single-family building in the town, built of mahogany, full of solemnity and dignity.
Around the house, there stood a row of solemn guards.
These guards could use their eyes and momentum to prevent people around them from getting close just by standing there.
When Frank approached with the little girl, a guard in leather armor stepped forward and blocked Frank intentionally or unintentionally and said:
"Sir, what are you doing?"
Frank was not angry, but just said lightly:
"My little girl is just ten years old today, bring her to worship the ancestors."
The guard heard it and did not doubt him.
Then he made way and said to Frank:
"Sir, please."
Frank nodded lightly, and then took the curious little girl into the place that made him curious for a long time.
Frank took the little girl to stand on the steps in front of the ancestral temple, and then knelt on both knees:
"Tina, kneel down."
The little girl followed Frank's request ignorantly, still staring with a pair of big black eyes, and knelt down beside Frank.
At this time, Frank said to the gate of the ancestral temple with a pious face:
"Frank, the 36th generation grandson of the Tian clan, today brings the 37th generation descendants to recognize the ancestors and return to the clan."
Then he kowtowed three times on the spot.
When Frank kowtowed, Fatina could still clearly see a trace of blood oozing from his forehead.
Before the little girl could react, Frank said sternly:
"Tina, kowtow."
The little girl hurriedly:
"Oh oh~"
She didn't know what this meant, so she could only follow Frank's example and kowtow three times on the ground.
But when she kowtowed for the first time, the little girl, who was afraid of pain, consciously didn't let her forehead touch the ground.
But just when the little girl thought it was okay, a big hand stretched out from behind and pressed her to the ground, with her forehead touching the ground.
Before the little girl could cry out in pain, Frank had already shouted again:
"Come again."
The little girl endured the pain caused by the friction between her tender skin and the ground, and then the second and third times.
Until the third time, a little blood appeared on the little girl's tender forehead.
But Frank was indifferent and pulled the little girl up:
"Let's go."
Seeing this, the little girl could only subconsciously wipe her forehead with her hand, and then followed Frank closely.
When Frank pushed open the heavy door, a fragrance that made the little girl feel uncomfortable came to her face.
The little girl seemed to be a little frightened, and instinctively touched the small milky white round bead hanging around her neck.
This is the only thought the little girl has had about her biological mother since she could remember.
Because this simple necklace that looks like a pearl is the only item left to her by her mother before she disappeared.
So when the little girl is scared, she will subconsciously touch here.
It's like her mother is with her.
But what Frank and the little girl didn't notice at this time was
When the little girl reached out to touch the round bead, a trace of blood on her hand just happened to fall on the bead.
That trace of blood that was not easily visible was directly swallowed by the bead.
Then the scene in the ancestral temple was not as terrible as the little girl imagined.
Frank took the little girl into the hall.
In the center of the entrance to the hall, there was a human-shaped statue with fluttering clothes.
The statue was nearly two meters tall, holding a three-foot-long sword, with long hair tied up in a crown, facing the sky outside the door.
What was strange was that.
This statue had no facial features, which looked very strange.
Frank was obviously worried that his child would be frightened, so when he was about to comfort her, he found that the little girl's eyes were getting brighter and brighter.
What frightened Frank even more was that the little girl asked him:
"Father, who is this big brother?"
Big brother? !
Frank looked at the statue without facial features and was stunned.
How could it be seen that it was a big brother?
And why was she not afraid?
You know, when Frank was brought here by his parents when he was ten years old, he had nightmares for several days.
Looking at the brilliance in the little girl's eyes, Frank couldn't help asking:
"Tina, aren't you afraid?"
"Why should you be afraid?"
The little girl tilted her head and looked at Frank, her face full of confusion:
"Big brother doesn't look scary at all."
"And he looks so good when he smiles."
Frank felt creepy after hearing what the little girl said.
He immediately realized something and said in disbelief:
"Tina, can you see the appearance of your ancestors?"
This time it was the little girl's turn to be surprised.
He looked at his father in confusion:
"Father, can't you see it?"
Looking at the expression on the little girl's face that didn't seem fake, Frank immediately got up and closed the door of the ancestral temple.
Then he took the little girl to the statue and asked curiously:
"Then Tina, can you tell me what the big brother you saw looks like?"
This question immediately made the little girl feel troubled.
As she was short of words, she stammered:
"Big brother looks so good when he smiles."
…
…
"Give it back to me..."
When Frank was about to attack Lin Yi and take back the necklace from Lin Yi's hand.
Fatina appeared without knowing when, and stood in front of Frank with her hands spread out, and said with a trembling voice:
"Father, don't."
The appearance of Fatina restored some of Frank's sanity that was about to be a zombie.
But soon he said angrily again:
"Tina, get out of the way!"
"This thing is of great importance, and it must not be..."
When Frank said this, Fatina threw a bombshell:
"Ancestor?!"
