I Can Control My Ancestors-Chapter 353 - 30: Reality Alters, Glory Through the Ages
"Gu Yi, it’s time to eat~"
The game screen gradually shattered, and Gu Mama’s voice coincidentally came through.
"Coming~"
Gu Yi instinctively responded, rubbed his eyes, and slowly put down the game console in his hands.
The room was pitch black.
The sky had completely darkened.
Gu Yi skillfully pressed the bedside switch, and as the light flicked on, he first looked around.
The room was still the familiar one, with no changes at all.
Gu Yi wasn’t disappointed either...
Reality was bound to change, but such changes, after a thousand years, couldn’t possibly interfere directly with his current home.
He got up slowly and walked out of the room with his phone.
Although the progress of the game wouldn’t stop.
But this matter couldn’t be completely resolved in one go; eating and drinking were also key.
The living room hadn’t changed much either.
Old Gu was sitting at the dining table, and Gu Mama was in the kitchen doing the last steps.
Gu Yi just glanced casually but instinctively looked at that safe.
It was still there with no difference.
Gu Yi didn’t expect Old Gu to tell him the password; after a casual glance, he walked towards the dining table.
But just at that moment—
Gu Yi suddenly noticed several things hanging in the most conspicuous spot in the living room that he hadn’t seen before.
"Hm?"
Gu Yi frowned and walked forward to take a closer look, and his heart trembled for a moment.
[Artifact Donation Certificate...]
[Dear Mr. Gu Jianjun, in admiration of your wish to continue cultural heritage, you have generously donated the rare treasure, the Xuande Incense Burner, to our museum. The burner is elegantly shaped, exquisitely crafted, with dignified inscriptions, weathered through time...]
[Our museum will properly preserve and study it, and through exhibitions and academic seminars, bring the artifact to life, fully showcasing its value.]
[This certificate is awarded to express gratitude and respect, an eternal memorial!]
[....]
Xuande Incense Burner!
Although it wasn’t those treasures left by his family, the three words Xuande Incense Burner still stimulated Gu Yi.
And most importantly—
In addition, there were several more certificates.
The artifacts recorded on them were also extraordinary.
Gu Yi’s breathing even gradually became somewhat rapid, and he experienced a momentary halt.
But then.... he noticed the collection certificate below.
Unlike the donation certificate.
The collection certificate did not note which artifacts could be collected, it just granted permissions.
Instantly, Gu Yi’s heart calmed a bit.
The usual collection methods.....
Both donating and collecting....
Indeed, there has been some influence!
Although the influence of the Gu Clan over such a long time wasn’t enough to change everything completely, some things were still left behind.
Even if these things are not many or particularly valuable.
There was still a difference!
This was definitely an inspiring event for Gu Yi!
"What are you looking at?"
At this moment, seeing Gu Yi in a daze, Old Gu couldn’t help but ask.
"Dad."
Gu Yi quickly returned to normal, sat on the chair, and asked with a smile, "How much stuff does our family actually have...."
"Not much...."
This time, Old Gu rarely answered Gu Yi directly, shaking his head and sighing, "Our family did indeed leave a lot of things before, and each was a treasure of the ages...."
"But, unfortunately, most of those treasures of the ages were lost."
"Although some items were passed down later, our family gradually faded with time; they were rewards from Emperors who respected our ancestors."
"How much could there be...."
Old Gu sighed again as he spoke.
Countless thoughts kept flashing through Gu Yi’s mind.
He looked complicated and didn’t ask anything more, but immediately picked up his phone and searched for "Gu Clan" on the short video platform.
Various videos instantly popped up.
[Standing before you now is—the strongest carbon-based lifeform of the second century, the Governor of Asia, a dual-player in the Eastern Hemisphere.... a being crowned with countless titles]
[The only minister in our country’s history whose reputation surpassed that of a founding emperor with real power.]
[He is also the idol of numerous emperors in our country, and the prototype of many popular novel protagonists, with what "born against the calamity" and "slaying until no one in the world dares to claim supremacy" and "thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in West River, never underestimate a poor young man," all based on him.]
[He is the only uncrowned king in our country’s history—Gu Chen, the Marquis Zhao Lie of the Han Dynasty]
[...]
[He was born into the legendary Gu Clan.]
[His grandfather Gu Xi was the strongest carbon-based lifeform of the first century, a pillar of the Eastern Han Dynasty’s Dragon Court.]
[And Gu Chen grew up in such an environment.]
[Unlike other formidable figures, there are no mythical records of Gu Chen’s origin; on the contrary, he was quite ordinary in his childhood.]
[But it’s such a person who fought through the entire chaotic world and subdued the Barbarians from all directions.]
[No matter your origin, your background, or your glorious achievements, you were destined to bow your head when facing him.]
[No matter how steadfast the beliefs of foreign races and tribes were, after facing him, he would replace their beliefs and become the new god.]
Typical marketing videos, but what they said was right.
Gu Yi just glanced briefly before swiping past.
[What is the Gu Clan during the Yan Han and Eastern Han period?]
[If you’re not from an aristocratic family, seeing the Gu Clan is like a frog at the bottom of a well looking up at the moon; if you are from an aristocratic family, seeing the Gu Clan is like a mayfly gazing at the sky!]
[List those eternal great sages who emerged from the Gu Clan;]
