Chapter 348: Ancestor Worship Ceremony

Two days after Chu Li met the Great Elder Fang Cheng on Daze Mountain, it was the Fang family's ancestor worship ceremony.

5 January is not the traditional ancestor worship day of the Qianguo country.

However, because January 5 is the day when the ancestral land of the Fang family was built in ancient books, according to the custom of the Fang family, they will hold a grand ancestor worship ceremony to commemorate their ancestors on this day, and invite friends from all over the world to the Fang family to gather together to celebrate the birth of the Fang family.

To put it simply, it is to use a more traditional way to celebrate the Fang family's anniversary.

Although Chu Li was not familiar with Fang Yi, he had borrowed it from the Fang family for a period of time, and he had to talk about some etiquette.

So at nine o'clock in the morning, Chu Li arrived at the top of the mountain where the Fang family held a ceremony to worship ancestors.

accompanied by Wang Wan'er, Lin Yuqi, and of course, Little Lolita Taotao also followed.

The ancestral ancestral hall of the Fang family was built on an empty square.

There is an open space in front of the ancestral hall, and a desk is placed on it. There are incense, liquor, offerings, etc., all of which are used in traditional ancestor worship.

Fang Cheng, the great elder of the Fang family, will preside over the ancestor worship ceremony in front of the desk at that time.

In front of the table used to worship ancestors, there is a staircase more than one meter high.

Standing at the bottom of the stairs, you can see that the ancestral hall enshrines the spiritual seats of the ancestors of the Fang family. However, since only people from the Fang family are allowed to enter inside, ordinary people cannot enter to visit.

Therefore, most of the people who participated in the ancestor worship ceremony gathered in the square to chat, and the Fang family would have special people to receive them.

There was still an hour before the official start of the ancestor worship ceremony, and a lot of people had already gathered in the square.

In the monk world, Wang Wan'er is a well-known figure, so she was surrounded by many people as soon as she entered the arena. After all, it's a medical saint, who doesn't want to say hello.

Little Lori Taotao shouted for Fang Qi to take her to visit the surroundings of the Fang family's ancestral hall, and soon Chu Li was only followed by Lin Yuqi, who looked a little cramped.

When Chu Li was taking Lin Yuqi to visit the calligraphy and paintings on the walls around the square, Fang Sheng walked over with a smile on his face.

"Haha, Mr. Chu Li, you have already come, slackened, slack. ”

"It's okay, there are a lot of people here today, you can go and busy with you first. Chu Li lifted his glasses and replied.

"Not busy, not busy at all. ”

"The time to entertain Mr. Chu Li must be freed up. ”

Listening to the meaning of Fang Sheng's words, he has not given up on settling with Chu Li. After all, he is a representative of the underworld, and it is always impossible to go wrong to seek favors.

"Oh, yes, yes. ”

Fang Sheng clapped his hands, pretending to have just remembered something.

"In this ancestor worship ceremony, our Fang family invited a few big people in Xushan City. I'll give Mr. Chu Li your introduction, lest you say that the water has washed the Dragon King Temple. ”

Chu Li thought that it would be boring to wait for the time for the ceremony to start, so he agreed to Fang Sheng.

So Fang Sheng introduced the other three major families in Yushan City to Chu Li and Lin Yuqi respectively: the Yan family, the Tan family, and the head of the Fu family.

The three major families in Xushan City are all monk families, and they are much stronger than the backward Fang family in terms of overall strength.

"It's okay, Fang Sheng, I've actually pulled the king of the human realm. ”

The person who spoke was Yan Shenguang, the head of the Yan family.

He is a person who looks like he has a hearty personality, with the temperament of an ancient hero, which is very different from those sinister and cunning characters.

"Hehe, it's luck, luck. ”

The Yan family was the largest monk family in Yushan City, and Fang Sheng didn't dare to be too arrogant in front of Yan Shenguang.

"Hehe, hello, Hades of the human world. I am the head of the Yan family, Yan Shenguang. ”

"Hello, just call me Chu Li. ”

The head of the Yan family greeted Chu Li very warmly, but Chu Li's expression was still cold, and there was no change.

Yan Shenguang set his eyes on Lin Yuqi beside Chu Li at this time.

"That's... This is..."

"A friend of mine. ”

"Oh~ Friend of the king of the human world, that must be a character, you have to know it. ”

Lin Yuqi saw Yan Shenguang stretching out his hand towards him, and waved his hand in a panic: "Eh, I'm just a junior, you don't need to know me, senior." ”

Yan Shenguang, who couldn't shake hands, was not embarrassed, raised his hand and touched his bald head and laughed.

"Hahaha, the little girl is quite shy. ”

"Okay Fang Sheng, I have a few friends here, so I won't bother your Fang family's affairs, and I'll leave first." ”

"Eh, good. ”

After saying this, Yan Shenguang said goodbye to Chu Li and turned to leave.

"Really, strange people. Lin Yuqi said with emotion.

"Hehe, the head of the Yan family, he is such a person, he looks more or less harmless to humans and animals. ”

Fang Sheng was about to open the conversation box to chat with Chu Li when a junior from the Fang family ran over and whispered a few words in his ear.

Chu Li is strong and naturally has good hearing.

He could clearly hear what the junior of the Fang family said was the news that the ancestor worship ceremony was about to begin.

Fang Sheng, who had no way to continue chatting, could only say goodbye to Chu Li in a good voice and left in a hurry.

It didn't take long for Fang Qi to take Tao Tao to Chu Li's side.

"Hmm, why did you two get back? Didn't you say that you should take Tao Tao closer to see the ancestor worship ceremony?"

Fang Qi took Taotao's hand and sighed.

"Grandpa asked me to come here. ”

"Tsk, Fang Sheng, old man. Chu Li pursed his lips, "It's not just that you don't miss any opportunity, it's not the time." ”

Fang Qi disagreed, and said lightly: "In my opinion, grandpa doesn't have so many thoughts. ”

"This time, he should just think that it will be safer for me to be by your side, and now the Fang family is troubled. ”

Lin Yuqi blinked: "Sister Fang Qi, do you know what will happen next." ”

"Hmm...... It's hard to say. ”

When Fang Qi was about to continue, Great Elder Fang Cheng walked to the table used to worship the ancestors.

The noisy crowd in the square fell silent for a moment, because they knew that the ritual of worshipping their ancestors was about to begin.

The process of worshipping the ancestors was not too long, Fang Cheng inserted three incense sticks, sprinkled wine on the ancestors of the Fang family, and then began to recite the sacrificial text.

"Dimension A.D., two XXX, the year of Renchen, on the occasion of the New Year. Yushan Fang's family, be careful with etiquette. Worship the ancestral temple, to filial piety. Respectfully invite the ancestors, enjoy my steaming. In front of the ancestral hall, there are many thoughts......

The ancestors and the ancestors, the immortals gathered. Gu Er's descendants should be comforted. Ancestor Fuyin, descendant of Youer. The melons are endless, and they will thrive for eternity. My ancestors are still feasting!"

There are hundreds of words in the whole text of the ancestor worship, and Fang Cheng memorized it smoothly word by word.

After the prayer was over, the children of the Fang family who had stood in a certain order behind Fang Cheng began to kowtow in turn to pay their respects to the ancestors.

The roaring sound of firecrackers also sounded at this time, symbolizing the red fire.

At this point, the ancestor worship ceremony is mostly completed.

According to the traditional ancestor worship process, after sharing the offerings, everyone can participate in the celebration of the Fang family.

However, before that, Great Elder Fang Cheng still had something to say to the children of the other family.

"Today, our family is listed as an ancestor gathered here. According to the usual practice, I will replace the immortal Fang Yi Ancestor and judge the grievances and grievances between the children of the Fang family. ”

"Now, if you have a favor to repay and a grievance to redress, you can go to the desk and pray to the ancestors of the Fang family. ”

Hearing this, Chu Li frowned.

In Chu Li's memory of participating in the Xiao family's ancestor worship ceremony before, there was no part of the trial.

"Sister Fang Qi, what's the situation now?"

Lin Yuqi asked with a puzzled face.

"That's the traditional custom of the Fang family. ”

Fang Qi patiently explained, "The Fang family's disciples have more or less grudges with each other every year. ”

"In order to solve this problem, the ancestors of the Fang family thought of a solution. It is in the ancestor worship ceremony that the person with the most respected status of the Fang family is the judge. Under the scrutiny of many spectators, the grievances of the children of the family were tried. ”

Insert a sentence,[Source change artifact APP] is really good,It's worth installing one,After all, you can cache and read books offline!

"It is said that this custom came into existence after Fang Yi Ancestor became famous. ”

Lin Yuqi put his hand against his chin: "Thinking about it this way, it seems that there was such a custom in the Lin family before." ”

"Great Elder, I want to report Fang Zheng!"

When Lin Yuqi was talking to Fang Qi, Fang Shi in front of the ancestral hall shouted towards Fang Cheng.

Fang Yu didn't react when he heard that Fang Shi was going to report his son. At this time, Fang Yu's eyes were expressionless, just standing in a daze.

Fang Cheng in front of the desk glanced at Fang Zheng and Fang Shi.

"Report, Fang Shi, what do you want to report?"

"I want to report Fang for looting, burning, killing and looting, treacherous and unforgivable!"

Fang Shi's expression was full of righteous indignation when he spoke, but the insulted Fang Zheng didn't say anything.

However, Fang Shi's words made Fang Cheng quite unhappy when he heard it, after all, the crime Fang Shi said was in the Fang family's family law, and it was to drown in the Tui River.

"Burning, killing, looting, treacherous and unreasonable, Fang Shi's grandson, can you have evidence?"

"Yes! I found it. ”

As he spoke, Fang Shi handed over the printed materials.

Most of the materials are printed with evidence that Fang hijacked human bodies to conduct dark experiments, destroy other people's families, and rob other people's research data. The whole set of evidence does not seem to have the good points of Fang Zheng, that is, it is portraying Fang Zheng as a heinous person.

The spectators in the square did not know what was written on the stack of paper, so they did not say anything.

But for this kind of family ugliness, Fang Cheng is definitely unwilling to make it public.

"Fang Zheng, what do you think about this matter? ”

Fang Cheng spoke in a serious tone.

However, Fang Zheng looked like a hanger, and he didn't take things to heart at all.

"Whatever is written on the paper, I admit it. ”

Fang Zheng spread his hands and admitted very generously: "I did it all." ”

Whatβ€”

For Fang Zheng's sudden admission, Fang Sheng and Fang Shi were both taken aback. Because according to their original plan, when Fang Zheng refused to admit it, they would come up with a second set of evidence as a killer weapon.

Hearing Fang Zheng admit his crime, killing intent appeared in his eyes.

"Fang Zheng, do you know what you've done, you're the eldest grandson of the Fang family!"

Regarding his great-grandfather's harsh words, Fang Zheng shrugged his shoulders and didn't care.

"So, how does the Great Elder plan to punish him?"

Fang Cheng looked at Fang Zheng with a pair of angry eyes, then looked up at the people around him, sighed heavily and said:

"Confinement...... Ten days, face the wall and think. ”
