"This is it, this is it. Tian Xiaonuan muttered to herself and put down the teacup.

"The hostess said that there was a good jade pendant to ward off evil spirits, and she could show it to me, and then I followed the hostess through the corridor. ”

Tian Xiaonuan walked in front, Li Ru and He Silang followed behind, the two listened to Tian Xiaonuan talking to herself, and watched her stop in the corridor, looking at a glass in a daze.

Li Ru was about to ask something, but was pulled by He Silang, and when he saw him waving his hand, Li Ru didn't make a sound.

At this moment, He Silang's heart was also full of shock, the dream wife told him that this corridor was the place where she was assassinated by the evil red dragon, and the wife said that she saw the shadow through the glass, only to realize that it was wrong, and the shadow was also illuminated after she got the jade pendant.

"This is it. Standing in front of a sandalwood-colored wooden door, Tian Xiaonuan gently pushed the door open, the door seemed to have not been opened for a long time, making a "crunch" sound, and some fine dust fell on the door frame, flying in the sun.

"No one has come into this house for a long time, this is where the earliest Taoist ancestor of my family lived, and then from the first few generations to keep this hut, but no servants are allowed to approach, when I was a child, my grandfather took me in to see, it was not interesting, and the family did not come here much. ”

Tian Xiaonuan pushed the door in, Li Ru followed, she also saw the situation inside for the first time, there was a lock in this place before, this door was locked, why is the lock missing today, Li Ru thought strangely.

The house is not big, and by the window, there is a Taoist platform, on which the Taoist Sanqing is enshrined, namely Yuan Shi Tianzun, Lingbao Tianzun and Daode Tianzun.

Maybe it's been a long time, or it hasn't been opened for a long time, and the three Tianzun have a layer of white ash on their bodies, and there is an incense burner in front of them, but there is no incense inside, and the candlestick next to them is also empty.

Tian Xiaonuan belongs to the Xuan faction, although he is not a faction with Taoism, but he also has some regrets when he sees the ancestors worshiped by other factions in the dust.

"Auntie, isn't there anyone cleaning and worshipping this place?"

Li Ru frowned, she really didn't know this place, when she was a child, she was still young, and her grandfather only told her that the first generation of the ancestors of the Meng family lived here before, and her mother didn't explain this place before she died.

"I went to ask an old aunt who had served my grandfather. Li Ru also felt a little strange, how could the place of the ancestors be so deserted, as if no one had cleaned it.

"Well, auntie, don't be in a hurry. ”

As soon as Tian Xiaonuan's words fell, her body suddenly tightened, as if a gust of wind had spared her three times, and she looked at her husband strangely.

"What's wrong?" He Silang saw his wife's suspicious eyes, could there be any problem?

"Si Lang, you...... Do you feel the wind blowing in?"

"Wind?" He Silang looked at the closed doors and windows around him, except for the sunlight that could penetrate in, where did the wind come from.

Looking at her husband's expression, Tian Xiaonuan knew that the wind was only felt by herself, maybe because her aunt brought it up when she opened the door.

But the wind seemed to be sticking to her body a few times, but did she feel any discomfort, what was going on in this room?

Thinking of this, Tian Xiaonuan secretly released his spiritual power, and the house was very clean and there was nothing.

"Si Lang, you go find a rag, it's really not good to see the Sanqing ancestors like this, I'll wipe them. ”

After He Silang left, Tian Xiaonuan looked around, there was nothing wrong, she took out the wet wipes in her bag and gently wiped the dust off the three of Sanqing Ancestors.

"The three ancestors don't blame the juniors for being unreasonable, the juniors are Tian Xiaonuan, the seventeenth generation disciple of Xuanmen, the ancestors are dusty, please allow the juniors to wipe it clean. ”

Tian Xiaonuan said and did at the same time, but she didn't see the jade pendant in her neck, and after she finished saying this, it suddenly emitted a bright light, flickered a few times and then went out.

"Xiao Nuan, this is Granny Rong, she is the old man of our Meng family. Li Ru walked in with a hunched over eighty-year-old woman.

This mother-in-law has white hair, meticulously combed behind her ears, and uses an old-fashioned black hairpin used to be used by old women to jam all her hair in the back, and her hair is twisted out of circles by the hairpin.

"Hello Granny Rong. Tian Xiaonuan greeted politely, the old man Li Ru said, that must be the old servant of the Meng family, who has served the Meng family for three generations all his life, such an old servant is actually higher than Li Ru's generation.

"You're Miss's niece?"

The old woman raised her head, her face was full of old age spots, and she looked as if she was not like eighty, but more like a hundred years old, but although she had an old face, a pair of eyes that were covered by drooping eyelids were extraordinarily spiritual, and those eyes were not as muddy as the old man at all, but clear and translucent.

People who have such eyes are not bad people, and they are generally of high quality.

"Granny Rong, Li Ru is now my aunt, and she and my mother-in-law have become sisters of the opposite sex. ”

"Well, it's good to have a sister, Miss has been too bitter in this life. Tears oozed from the corners of the old woman's eyes, she looked at Tian Xiaonuan, and after a while, her expression converged and became serious.

"What do you want to ask?"

"Old woman, I'm a little curious, my aunt said that this is the old house of the ancestors of the Meng family, my aunt was born in a scholarly family, for this kind of ancestral mansion, it is said that it should be well maintained, but why did I push the door in just now, the Sanqing ancestors inside were covered with dust......? Did anything happen?"

Hearing Tian Xiaonuan's last words, Granny Rong's face changed suddenly, and she stared at Tian Xiaonuan with wide eyes, "Are you a Taoist?"

Tian Xiaonuan saw that this old woman's expression was different, could there really be something going on in this place? But the aura of this place looked full of yang, not like a ghost entering and exiting or a yin and evil place.

"The younger generation inherited the Xuanmen, not a Taoist disciple, but seeing these Sanqing ancestors covered in dust here, they were always a little uneasy, so I wanted to ask, why the land of the ancestors, even the hygiene seems to have not been cleaned for a long time. ”

Granny Rong looked at Tian Xiaonuan for a long time, her eyes changed several times, and finally slowly lowered her head, "This position, from the time I served the master, the rules passed down from the ancestors, don't disturb the ancestors, except for this corridor to drag from time to time, the hygiene here is also a big cleaning during the New Year." ”

Suddenly, Granny Rong's face changed greatly, "Miss, how did you get in? ”

"Locked? No, when I came in, it was a hidden door. Tian Xiaonuan said strangely.

Li Ru thought for a while: "Aunt Rong, this room didn't lock the door when I came today, it's strange." ”

"Didn't lock the door?" Rong Po seemed to be a little panicked, Tian Xiaonuan found that her right hand was shaking violently, and she took out a bunch of keys from her pocket.

"It's locked, how can there be no lock?"
