Chapter 4: Could It Really Be a Family Inheritance?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“This urn originated prior to the Xia dynasty? This…”

Everyone who was watching was shocked.

Just the word “Xia” was enough to shock everyone.

The Xia dynasty was a tribal civilization. In history, it was uncertain as to whether or not the Xia dynasty had really existed.

Hence, Xia was related to many Chinese myths.

In the Xia dynasty of the world, there were phoenix horns and unicorns almost everywhere. Even if they actually existed, there were only some records in oracle bone scripts.

“This is fake, right? How could the Xia dynasty have small seal scripts?”

“The Xia dynasty indeed doesn’t have small seals. There are at least a dozen types of small characters. The strokes that are wrapped around the outermost edges are small seals. However, on the strokes of these small seal scripts, there are even more ancient characters, including oracle bone inscriptions.”

The expert explained.

His tone was a little shaky.

“However, the characters on the urn are extremely small. There are more than a dozen characters on a single seal character. This…”

In the end, the professor said excitedly, “On this urn, characters that I find unrecognizable have appeared. From the looks of it, they are much more advanced than the oracle bone script. However, they are an unfamiliar type of character. This is a new type of ancient character. I don’t know which era it came from.”

“Let’s not talk about this first. The words on it indicate the value of the era. It’s a miracle that this urn can be passed down from such a long time ago.”

The professor said with some excitement, “Who found this?”

“Doesn’t matter who found it. It’s my family heirloom.”

Yang Dianfeng said.

“Hmph, you have really thick skin. A cultural relic that is likely to be older than the Xia dynasty belongs to all of humanity. Yet you say it’s your family heirloom. Are you crazy about money?”

This time, Li Li did not hide her sarcasm at all.

“No matter how long it has been, why can’t it be my family’s treasure? Didn’t the expert just say that the name of the Emperor Yang of Sui, Yang Guang, is on the box?”

Yang Dianfeng continued, “My surname is Yang too. Can’t it be my family heirloom?”

“You really know how to flatter yourself. If that’s really the case, it means that you are still a descendant of the royal family. It’s hilarious. Get lost quickly. You are not welcomed here.” Li Li directly ordered him to leave.

“Our old Yang family only has one descendant. Why isn’t this box mine considering that my surname is Yang?”

Yang Dianfeng shouted crazily and pushed away the security guard’s arms that were supporting him.

At this moment, many people in the building had already started live streaming on their mobile phones.

Instantly, this joke attracted a large number of fans.

“Oh my god! Ancient characters and a research institute. A discovery has been made stating that the Chinese civilization is not only 5,000 years old as older characters have appeared… Join in on the stream if you want to understand human history.”

Such a topic was very eye-catching.

One by one, internet fans joined in.

“What is this? Is this a movie?”

” It can’t be, look at the people here. All of them are wearing white coats, they seem to be from a research institute.”

“Hello everyone, I’m a staff member of the Ancient Texts Research Institute, I’m now live-streaming a super treasure for you. The importance of this treasure’s existence is that it will very likely break the 5,000 year-old limit of China’s ancient civilization.”

Suddenly, the camera turned to the ancient expert and the urn.

“Li Li, don’t kick him out yet. It seems that all the words recorded on this urn are people’s names…”

A cool breeze blew past the soles of everyone’s feet.

Heavens, could an urn’s inheritance be more than 5,000 years old? Furthermore, it was even passed down by a family?

What did this mean?

Li Li was also a little dumbfounded.

“Unfortunately, we would need a team of ancient texts experts to thoroughly understand the words and the era of the urn.”

Yang Dianfeng really couldn’t stand it anymore.

“Old man, are you stupid? My name is Yang Dianfeng. Look at the last word, its last stroke, and the last three words on that stroke. That will be enough to prove everything.”

In truth, Yang Dianfeng was not confident.

Nevertheless, he had the European Emperor System.

The system had already said that the urn belonged to him, so there should not be a problem.

It must be reflected in the words on the urn.

Everyone suddenly became nervous.

The professor took the micro-microscope and looked at the last word.

The last stroke.

The last three small words on the last stroke.

“Yang Zhong Shu…”

The ancient expert realized that the last word on the seal script was a modern word. Thus, he read it out easily.

Yang Dianfeng was stunned. “Why is it not my name? Could the system be a huge scam?”

“How could the system be a scam? We are in modern times, however, that old man has habitually read from right to left. Don’t modern words read from left to right?”

Yang Dianfeng suddenly said, “Old man, you’ve read it backward. Read it again. Read the first three words on the last stroke.”

That old man was a little angry.

He had been studying texts for many years, but he was actually being instructed by a junior.

Nonetheless, he wanted to see what tricks this kid was playing.

Without thinking, he said, “The first three words are called Yang Dianfeng. Could it be that your name is Yang Dianfeng? Hahaha, I’m dying of laughter.”

“Hahaha, Yang Dianfeng.”

Everyone laughed along with him.

At this moment, Yang Dianfeng was rummaging through his clothes. After rummaging for a long time, he found a card.

He took it out and threw it lightly. The card floated very slowly in the air.

Everyone’s gaze was focused on the card.

The card fell accurately into the professor’s hand.

“As expected of the Constitution of the European Emperor. Such luck, there wouldn’t be a second person.”

Yang Dianfeng was delighted in his heart. He looked at the stunned crowd and said, “Old man Gu, right? Take a look at my ID first. What are you babbling about? Also, I suggest that you read my name out loud. What is my name?”

The professor’s hands trembled and his face turned black.

At the same time, he felt a huge wave in his heart.

“F*ck, is there really such a coincidence in this world? Why is this young man’s name Yang Dianfeng?”

“How could this be?”

“Right… right, it must be a coincidence. Such a thing can not happen.”

Even so, he felt as if he was in a tough position to back down. He had no choice but to say, “You are indeed called Yang Dianfeng…”

“Pfft…”

Everyone was stunned.

Was this a coincidence or something?

The blood drained from Li Li’s face.”This is impossible. This has to be a coincidence. How could the name of a modern person appear on a golden box that is likely to be more than 5,000 years old?”

Suddenly, a thought flashed through her mind.

“Old Gu, is this part of the family’s inheritance?” Li Li asked.

Old Gu said seriously, “I’m afraid so because this urn might have been used to bury generations of the Yang family.”

Everyone was shocked.

Their gazes lingered between Li Li and Yang Dianfeng.

Li Li suddenly curled her lips, “I have to say, you are really lucky, but do you think you can swallow this priceless box just like this? You are too naive, it’s just a coincidence.”

“Coincidence? Is it really is a coincidence?”

Yang Dianfeng was certain that his name had miraculously appeared on the box.

Then…

He looked at Old Gu and said, “Old Gu, look at the names below mine. Is It Yang Zhongyi, Yang Tiancheng, Yang Shijie…”

Yang Dianfeng said more than ten names on the Yang family tree in a row.

Old Gu quickly took a microscope to look at them. There were not many names, but after looking at them for more than ten minutes, his body could not help but tremble.
