Chapter 7: Tangled

Shen Baifeng couldn't make up his mind, opening the ancestral hall is a big deal, if it is not done well, it will kill people, and it will also leave a lot of disasters for the future, but if the ancestral hall is not opened, none of the people in this village will survive.

"Liu Yi, show me the immortal lock. ”

I nodded and fumbled around my chest for a few moments before finally unbuttoning the Immortal Lock. The temperature of the immortal lock has long been assimilated with me, and it is warm in my hand. I handed the lock to Shen Baifeng, and he looked at it carefully, his eyebrows gradually clearing.

"There is a way, you can take risks, you can save the village, but also save your life, you have to prepare something......"

After a short time, an ancestral hall was built in the village, and no one knew that it was to save the life of the whole village, and no one knew who was enshrined here.

"Little Daoist, how can there be a cultivator who doesn't tell people's names......! What kind of system is this......"

"You can rest assured, the good feng shui of Fengshi Village has been broken, it is difficult to have nobles, I can't find where the break is for the time being, I have to enshrine a respected elder here, this name is not necessary, I will carve the eight characters of the elder into it." ”

Hearing him say this, other people can be stable even if they are not steadfast in their hearts, but they only feel that the "character" is really amazing, and they are really willing to set up an ancestral shrine for themselves.

Dad also joined the construction of the ancestral hall, he wants to build this thing with his own hands that can protect the villagers, but may also take his son's life, I hope God can hear his sincerity, and don't let his old Liu family die.

The mother came with a large kettle and a stack of bowls, poured tea and handed it to the workers one by one.

"It's better to be sister-in-law of the Liu family, bring us tea, and look at those ladies in our family, which one remembers that his man is tired outside?

My mother scolded him with a smile, he was so old, and he didn't know how to handle the door, and my mother saw me looking at my father in a daze, called me to go, and asked me to send a bowl to my father.

I walked over to my dad with a bowl full of tea.

"Daddy. ”

......

"Daddy, drink water. ”

My father was impatient, and with one arm he pulled me away, and the bowl broke on the masonry and the tea was spilled on the floor.

"Liu Changde! You're really not a thing!"

My mother watched my broken knees blowing in distress, and when she saw that my father didn't look back, she got angry, and my mother pulled me home angrily. The surrounding villagers also didn't know why, and some thought that Liu Changde had eaten Liu's sister-in-law's vinegar, and no one dared to drink the remaining half of the water.

My mother doesn't know about the ancestral hall, if my mother knows, it is estimated that my mother would rather die with everyone than let me take any risks.

"Your father is really not a thing! I don't say anything angry, I know how to do it with you! You see how I clean him up when he comes back!" My mother washed me with warm water, and then put a band-aid on me. I didn't know what to say, but Brother Shen told me that I must not let my mother know about this, for fear that something would be bad.

When everyone was busy, Shen Baifeng was playing hard.

I saw him squatting under my stove and leaning over curiously, this look made me happy, the boss is still playing this?

I couldn't help but taunt: "You're living in the mud, you?"

Shen Baifeng backhanded me with a face of grass and wood ashes, and said, "Don't talk useless, give me half a bowl of water." ”

I wiped my face, wiped a hand of dust, and made a gesture of opening my head behind his back, and still obediently fetched water.

"What are you doing with this?

"Pinch a pig. ”

I gave him a blank look, too lazy to pay attention to him, but for such a big person still playing with mud, I thought it was very interesting, so I ran to tell my mother excitedly, and my mother thought it was strange and ran to see it.

Shen Baifeng never expected that I would actually find my mother.

"Xiao Feng, what are you doing?"

"Sister-in-law Liu, hahaha......"

Shen Baifeng's mind turned, and he made up nonsense, saying that there was only one old-timer in the family in the ancestral hall, and he would pinch a boy for the seniors, just like the two little children of Taishang Laojun, and help the seniors do some small things.

Although the mother believed this, she picked up the black clay doll and couldn't help but say, "I think this is more like a black monkey." ”

Shen Baifeng glanced at me and laughed out loud.

At night, my father came back with a stick and rope, and my mother was about to scold him, but my father threw something and went directly into the house to lie down and sleep.

The ancestral hall was repaired for three months, and only yellowed dead branches were left between the branches of the trees, and the smell of corruption was also permeated among the fallen leaves.

The village chief discussed with Shen Baifeng and decided that tomorrow would be an auspicious day to open the ancestral hall. After Shen Baifeng came back, he also told my father the news, but my father only nodded gloomily, didn't say anything, and went out with a cigarette.

Since the decision to open the ancestral hall, my father has always been like this, he doesn't like to talk, and his temper is short-tempered.

At night, I slept with Shen Baifeng as usual, and I stared at the moonlight outside the window with big eyes like copper bells.

"Can't sleep?"

"Brother Shen, if I didn't let my father know about this, wouldn't he be like this?"

Shen Baifeng sighed, sat up, folded his arms on the back of his head, and said, "Liu Yi, he is your father, he is qualified to know about this." ”

I'm still puzzled, why can my father know, but my mother can't know?

"Your mother was frightened for so long when she was pregnant with you, and she finally looked forward to you growing up so big, you are her life, if she knew about this, none of you in the village would want to live except for you. "And so it was.

I swallowed my saliva, and was just about to close my eyes, when Shen Baifeng asked me again if I was afraid of opening the ancestral hall tomorrow. Why are you afraid? Isn't it just to open an ancestral hall?

Shen Baifeng said with a smile: "It's one thing to open an ancestral hall, it's another thing to open an ancestral hall, and it's another thing to set up an offering to a little hairy child, then it's a big problem." ”

Shen Baifeng told me that the establishment of the ancestral hall is equivalent to the people here to seal themselves a "little fairy", if the little fairy has many believers and high mana, it will be worshiped from all directions, on the contrary, if it is just a hairy boy, it is a fragrant bait in the eyes of demons and monsters, and anyone who sees it wants to take a bite.

I shuddered, and the hairs on my vest stood up, but Shen Baifeng asked mockingly, "Scared?"

Unafraid. For the sake of my father and mother, for the sake of the innocent people in the village, I am willing.

Shen Baifeng smiled, tucked the quilt for me, and coaxed me to sleep.

Although Shen Baifeng was with me that night, I still had a terrible nightmare. In addition to himself, there was only endless darkness in the dream, and countless pairs of eyes shining with fierce light in the darkness. I couldn't escape, it was as if there were ropes binding me, and those dark eyes seemed to devour me alive.

When the western sun was twilight, I was woken up by Shen Baifeng, and this boundless nightmare finally ended.

I'm really scared.
