Chapter 590: Ancestral Hall
Mentougou is not a big place, but it is excessively rich.
Although it is not connected to the outside road, every family has its own garage, and there is no shortage of cars or anything.
I asked a rough idea from Ogawa, who led the way, but he didn't know what the people who went out to work were doing.
We all know that there is no such way to be rich, and it is probably not a good way, not that I underestimate them, but the reality.
Xiao Chuan was very diligent, led us, and soon arrived at the entrance of the village.
In front of the entrance of the village is the big rock, blocking the road of the small half of the village.
I looked at Xiao Chuan, who was standing nearby, "Don't you think this thing is in the way?"
Xiao Chuan shook his head: "This stone can't be moved, I heard that this is a stone dare to be invited by the ancestors from Mount Tai!"
"Shi Dangdang?" I was stunned, Shi Dangdang is a kind of stone placed at the head of the village at the intersection, which can drive away evil spirits and suppress evil spirits, but I have never seen such a big one.
Besides, Shi Dangdang is not just placed in a place that can work, the location and direction of the placement need to be calculated and seen before he can decide.
Shi Dangdang, who is placed in the right position, has a special aura, which makes people feel very comfortable nearby, and there is also a strong aura on the real Shi Dangdang.
And the big stone that appeared at the entrance of Mentougou Village did not have this aura.
Besides, the ancestors of Mentougou are afraid that there must be hundreds of years away from now, and people at that time could still carry stones to a far ravine?
I had doubts in my heart, but I didn't say anything, and the green plums who followed us seemed to be aware of it, but they didn't say anything either.
We stood at the entrance of the village for more than ten minutes, and I circled around this 'stone dangdang' several times, but I still didn't notice anything wrong, there was no aura, no yin qi, it seemed to be just an ordinary stone.
Seeing that Huang Bawang and they were a little impatient, I didn't insist anymore and left here with them, but I still think this stone is weird.
Soon we were back in the village, where the chief's house was in the middle of the village, and we walked past the chief's house and walked towards the north end of the village.
There are fewer residents here, and the further north you go, the fewer people there are, and as I walked, I suddenly asked:
"You can build roads in this village, why don't you build a big road and connect with the outside?"
Xiao Chuan was stunned when he heard this, he didn't seem to have thought about this question, and after a long time, he replied: "If you want to build a road, you have to bypass three mountains, then the distance will be too long, and here is only one of our villages, it is really not cost-effective to build such a road." β
I nodded and didn't say anything more, though I wasn't convinced by his answer.
There must be other reasons for this, but we haven't found it yet.
Gradually, the surroundings became desolate, and further on, you had to walk out of the village.
As mentioned earlier, the village is also very strange, with yellow sand on one side and green trees on the other, and the same is true at this time, a winding path that leads through the shade of trees to a hill without vegetation.
After we looked at it, we were about to walk back on a long road, when I suddenly noticed that there seemed to be a bright light shining from the bare hill.
The light flickered and flickered, and we could all see it clearly.
"What is that place?" I asked, pausing and pointing to the hill.
Xiao Chuan's face changed slightly, a little unnatural, and it could be seen that he didn't really want to mention what happened there.
But when I asked, he couldn't help but say it, so after thinking about the words, he said, "It's just a family there, nothing special." β
The more he said that, the more I felt that something was wrong, so I pressed on.
Although Xiaochuan is a little smart, after all, he is still a child who has not gone out and has seen anything in the world, and I told the truth in a few words.
"The village is surnamed Fang, it was originally a village built by a big official in the Ming Dynasty, and the family who moved to the mountain moved from outside, surnamed Qian, at first it was fine, but then they fell out with the village chief, so they moved out. β
Xiao Chuan explained very briefly, and he didn't know the details of the matter, because the old man of the family suddenly quarreled with the village chief, and then moved out of the village.
I think it's necessary for the family to go over and see, their family and the village are not on good terms, and they are a little suspicious of it.
The path separates from the forest, one leading to a barren mountain and the other leading into the woods, and it is unknown where it leads.
After asking Xiaochuan, we learned that this forest path leads to the ancestral hall of their village.
There are many strange places in this village, and the ancestral hall is built outside the village, which is also a strange place.
"Xiaochuan, we're going to go to your village's ancestral hall to have a look. β
"This can't be done!" As soon as I finished speaking, Fang Xiaochuan immediately refused, "The ancestral hall never lets outsiders approach, and even I haven't been in it a few times. β
For a more conservative place, the ancestral hall is indeed not a place for outsiders to enter and exit at will, because the ancestral hall is a place to worship the ancestors of the family.
"Xiaochuan, you have to understand that the affairs in your village are very unusual, most of them are caused by evil demons, and the ancestral hall is probably the focus of their rebellion. β
I'm not completely lying to him, I can really see the development of the clan from the ancestral hall, and now the villagers in Mentougou have not been harmed, maybe their ancestors blessed them.
Fang Xiaochuan was taken aback, he had heard that the village was so rich because of good feng shui and the blessing of the ancestors, if the ancestors had problems and did not bless them, wouldn't they have run out of money?
Therefore, Fang Xiaochuan, who had no idea, was completely persuaded by us, and he led us into the woods.
There was not much sound in the woods, and there were very few birds and insects, and it seemed very quiet.
After a while, I was able to smell the smell of incense.
Then we came to a clearing with a house with a courtyard and a white faΓ§ade and a black glazed tile roof.
The dark door was closed, and there was no sound inside.
Xiao Chuan was a little afraid of this place, and he passed lightly and patted the door gently.
After a while, someone shouted from inside, "Who, it's not time to burn incense!"
"Uncle Jiu, it's me, Xiao Chuanzi!" Fang Xiaochuan said as he rushed into the door.
There was no movement in the door, and after a while, the door of the ancestral hall was opened.
After opening the door, out came an old man in clothes, this old man had white hair and eyebrows, but his eyes were very bright, and his body was very strong, and he walked like a gust of wind.
