The younger brother sighed softly and patted Xiao Wu on the shoulder to express comfort.

"Actually, I'm the same as you."

He is withdrawn, unsociable, and doesn't know how to comfort others.

Being able to say this sentence is already the limit of his expression.

Xiao Wu was much more cheerful than him. After wiping the tears from the corners of his eyes, he smiled.

"It's okay, I'm used to it."

Although she is a little girl, she is strong-willed and far beyond ordinary peers.

The tragic experience in her childhood, coupled with Danmin's character of never giving up, made a ten-year-old girl grow up ahead of schedule.

Although she was firmly controlled by the Wang family, she had already buried a belief in her heart.

Even if she spends her whole life, she must find her identity at all costs!

Before meeting Ji Changsheng, she had been working for the Wang family, while also quietly inquiring about her life experience.

Huangtian paid off. With the help of the Wang family's huge intelligence network, she finally found out her origin after years of searching.

Three years ago, when she returned to a small fishing village to search for her life experience, she learned an important piece of news from the villagers.

The villagers rescued Xiaowu on the beach and kindly buried her father on a hillside outside the village.

The second year after Xiaowu left the fishing village, it was during the Qingming Festival.

A villager went to visit her father's grave and saw a strange old man burning paper in front of the grave.

The old man was not from the fishing village, but a relative and friend of her father.

So the villagers came forward to inquire and informed the old man about Xiao Wu.

After hearing this, the old man did not reveal his identity. He just said thank you and walked away.

The villagers thought this man was acting strangely, but they didn't take it to heart.

But in the following years, villagers would see this old man in front of her father's grave every Qingming Festival.

The old man has an eccentric personality and doesn't like to interact with others. He always stays in front of the grave for a whole day and then leaves.

After hearing the news, Xiao Wu was overjoyed. This old man must know her father, either a relative or a friend!

So on the Qingming Festival that year, Xiaowu came to the fishing village again and waited quietly for the old man in front of his father's grave.

After a long wait, the old man arrived as scheduled.

After the two met, they were very excited.

After some detailed questioning, the old man showed Xiao Wu the tattoo on his back - the sea-penetrating formation.

That is the symbol of the Dan people, and the old man is her tribe!

After confirming each other's identities, the old man took Xiao Wu to the seaside, where an old fishing boat was docked.

The old man said this was his boat and he wanted to take her to a place.

Xiao Wu originally thought he was taking her home, but after boarding the boat, the old man told her, "The Dan people have no home."

"The Dan people are just wanderers wandering on the sea. This is not our home."

"We come from the depths of the sea, the birthplace of our ancestors and our true home, but now we can't go back."

Since losing their homeland, the Dan people have been wandering around the world for thousands of years.

The Dan people have no tribe or country, just like the gypsies on the sea.

But they have carried the same mission for generations.

Find your way home!

The old man also said that he did not know Xiaowu's father, but he was just a fellow Danian.

Xiaowu felt very strange. Since he was not a relative or friend, why did the old man come to pay homage every year?

The old man sighed and told her helplessly.

Due to various reasons, there are fewer and fewer Dan people, and the population is probably even smaller than that of giant pandas.

If we can't find our way home, this ancient ethnic group may disappear completely in a few decades!

Therefore, regardless of whether they know each other or not, every Dan citizen is his relative and friend.

The old man said: Since the death of his family, he has not seen his clan members for thirty years.

A few years ago, when he stopped at a nearby fishing village, he accidentally learned about what happened back then.

This made him extremely excited. A little girl of the same race was still alive!

From then on, the old man ran around looking for Xiao Wu's whereabouts.

But because the Wang family acted secretly, there were no clues at all.

In desperation, the old man could only hope that Xiao Wu could return to the fishing village, so he came to the fishing village every Qingming Festival to visit the graves and wait for Xiao Wu to appear.

He knew that this might be a meaningless wait, and perhaps Xiao Wu would not appear until he died.

But this is his only chance, no matter how slim it is, he must give it a try.

Unfortunately, the old man's expectations were not disappointed. He finally met Xiao Wu!

While Xiao Wu was excited, he was also curious, why did the old man want to see her?

The old man then told her an amazing secret. After countless generations of unremitting efforts, they finally found their way home!

However, because the old man was too old, he was already in his eighties at the time and was unable to complete his mission to return home, so he could only place his hope on the young Xiao Wu.

If Xiao Wu can't wait, the clues he finally got will probably be buried in the soil with him.

Only then did Xiao Wu understand where the old man wanted to take her.

It's the way home!

Having said this, Xiao Wu calmed down his excitement and said again.

"It's a pity that this road home is too difficult to walk. I can't complete it with my strength alone. Only you can help me complete my mission."

After hearing this, the little brother finally got a rough outline of the matter.

"You mean, the way home is hidden in this ancient tomb?"

Xiao Wu nodded solemnly and continued to talk about what happened three years ago.

The old man and she sailed on the sea for more than a month in the dilapidated fishing boat and finally arrived at the South China Sea Coral Forest.

The old man told her that the way home was hidden under this sea.

Then, Xiao Wu saw a scene that she would never forget for the rest of her life, and it was also a scene that completely subverted her cognition.

A giant dragon from ancient times!

In fact, anyone has this feeling when they see a giant dragon for the first time.

Even Xiao Wu, a Tanka, is no exception. She never thought that there really is a dragon in the world!

When the little brother heard it, he understood.

The giant dragon is the guardian of this ancient tomb. Only with its recognition can you enter the ancient tomb.

The Tanka people claim that they are aquatic creatures of the dragon fish scale genus, which should not be nonsense. They have a subtle relationship with the giant dragon.

Three years ago, when Xiao Wu first came to this ancient tomb, he finally knew the secret left by his ancestors here.

The way home!

The young man couldn't help asking.

"What is the way home?"

Xiaowu stopped and smiled.

"You will see it soon."

As they spoke, they had come to the end of the passage.

A heavy stone door blocked the way.

Xiaowu excitedly stepped forward to start the mechanism, and with a dull sound, the stone door slowly rose.

What appeared behind the stone door was an unimaginable magnificent scene!
