Volume 1: The Yi Family Chapter 9: The Yi Family's Family Sacrifice, the Patriarch's Disciple
The turmoil subsided unsurprisingly, and no one was surprised.
Everyone didn't take that matter to heart at all at this time, except for Yi Shot, of course.
At this time, everyone was busy preparing for the family sacrifice.
Family sacrifices are common in the human race, and a certain Confucian monk of the human race still does not forget one of his wishes when he is dying, and says to his children and grandchildren on the sickbed:
"The family sacrifice has not forgotten to tell Na Weng!" and then resigned.
But it is necessary for the Protoss, which involves the power system of the human and divine races.
The human race is physically weak, but it has a talent in the creation, adaptation and reproduction of exercises, and the Protoss can't catch up.
Moreover, the human race has the talent to absorb the bloodline of all races, but the conversion rate is extremely small, despite this, people who are either rich or noble often have bloodline.
The Protoss is physically stronger than the Terrans, but it cannot be used as a capital for pride, and it is unbearable to be hit hard without means of protection.
However, the Protoss is born with blood, and after the death of the physical body, the soul can exist for a long time through the power of faith, and the combat power can be retained by five or six points, and it falls into a deep sleep to wait for the last afterglow of life.
Family sacrifice is an important process of collecting the power of faith, so the Yi family and even all the gods attach great importance to it.
Of course, the Yi family would not want to obtain any power of faith from such a small number of people, and the family sacrifices here were only to strengthen the cohesion of the family.
The highlight is the ritual after the clan sacrifice.
It is not easy for so many people to gather here, and it is only once in ten years, so it is necessary for everyone to understand the charter in the next ten years.
Dong Fu was led by Yi Yao to the main hall of the Yi family ancestral hall.
The ancestral hall of the Yi family is very ordinary, and it is no different from the ancestral hall he saw among the people.
The only characteristic is that it is large, and it is not ordinarily large.
Even though there are many ancestors of the Yi family, each occupying a lot of space, the space here can still accommodate all the clansmen of the main lineage.
Dong Fu didn't understand why his sister brought her, she only said that it was arranged by her ancestors.
Hearing that it was Yide's arrangement, Dong Fu's hanging heart relaxed.
But after all, he is still a ten-year-old child, and he is still very apprehensive when he sees everyone with a straight face.
Yi Yao came early, the time of the Yi family sacrifice was noon, and she came to the ancestral hall with Dong Fu Yuchen.
Because she is a junior and has no status, she naturally can't put on a big name.
It wasn't until the time that the elders of the family brought their family members here, of course, the family members did not include the relatives, and the location of the relatives was in the side hall.
Noon is approaching, and all the children who have not left the family to carry out the mission have arrived.
The elders are evenly divided into two columns, as if they are the radicals and conservatives in the clan.
The juniors behind the elders are also like adults who are separated on both sides, and the righteous color is at the front of the left column of the juniors.
Yi Wu retained his usual profundity, standing solemnly at the front of the right column.
After what happened last time, Dong Fu roughly understood the faction of the Yi family.
However, what puzzled him was that the styles of these two people seemed to be incompatible with their own faction, and it would be just right if they were reversed.
But the two factions of the Yi family have their own reasons for choosing heirs, so naturally it is not for him to speak.
At noon, the family festival officially begins.
The family sacrifice ceremony is similar to what Dong Fu saw, which is nothing more than the patriarch telling about the great achievements of each ancestor, and then under his leadership, future generations will express deep regret for the ancestors who have passed away.
In fact, most of them don't know that the souls of those emperors and emperors are still alive.
And those living ancestors don't want to bird them.
You must know that the high place is unbearable, and the more you look at the high place, the fewer the old people who once walked.
Ordinary mortals have a maximum of a hundred years in their lifetime, and the more advanced the cultivation, the longer the lifespan, and the weaker their ability to reproduce.
And when their cultivation is still young, the qualifications of the children they reproduce are often weak, so many cultivators are white-haired people who send black-haired people, or they have no children for life.
This phenomenon is especially obvious among the Protoss whose soul lifespan is much higher than the physical lifespan, and many Protoss have been wiped out because of this.
The Yi tribe is a big clan, although the clan has the means to deal with this phenomenon, but the cost is huge, hundreds of thousands of years may not be used once, and it is also a symptom but not a cure, with little effect.
It is also to reduce the loss, the souls of those ancestors are mostly asleep, so that they will not spend their precious time on those children and grandchildren who do not know how many generations have passed.
Yi De was standing between the tablet and the clansmen at this time, and at this time he was no longer the kind bad old man in front of Yi Yao and Dong Fu.
It was the head of the clan, and the power of the patriarch was constantly released on his body, making everyone in the audience silent.
Some children had not yet become cultivators, and their legs and feet had begun to tremble, but Dong Fu was like a nobody.
Yi Yao stood beside him and discovered this detail, but she thought it was because Dong Fu had a good impression of Yi De.
Actually, it's not, because even some of the elders are trembling.
But Yi Yao, a young man who has just entered the path, is fine. It's a strange thing.
As the patriarch, Yide naturally knows the reason.
Because the source of it all is him, or some person with bad tastes, no, the soul.
Hou Yi watched the family sacrifice in the quiet room expressionlessly, and he was sitting opposite him.
The man was dressed in red and had an old face. If Dong Fu was here, he would definitely run to hug this person.
That's right, he is Dong Fu's grandfather, Donghuangyan.
"The Yi family is really not as good as the generation. Hou Yi sighed.
"The bloodline of the Protoss has been degrading, and it is not easy for your Dayi clan to have such strength. ”
"I remember that you were the emperor's cultivator.
Now he has entered the emperor, and he is not an ordinary emperor. ”
Hou Yi looked at the bloody old man opposite and said cautiously.
The old man seemed to know Hou Yi's concerns and sighed.
"Some time ago, the blood pillar in the Northern Regions was your handiwork. Hou Yi still said expressionlessly.
The old man knew what Hou Yi wanted to say, so he only said word by word, "East ~ Emperor ~ Secret ~ Hidden".
Hou Yi was immediately relieved.
Dong Fu was about to fall asleep when he heard this, of course, he was not the only one, many of the teenagers began to feel sleepy.
Because the stories told by Yide are almost the same, most of them are about a certain ancestor defeating a bad guy in a small fight.
Then there was a mouth full of praise for merit, and he talked about it for nearly three hours.
Dong Fu really didn't expect Yide to have such a talkative side.
Of course, Yi Yao didn't expect that her saliva was about to flow down at this time......
only heard Yide's loud drink, and the teenagers immediately woke up from their sleep, and from time to time they could hear the sound of a certain teenager subconsciously sucking saliva......
Although Yide was angry, he was helpless.
He would go like this every ten years, not to mention those teenagers, he was tired of talking about it himself.
When he first became the patriarch, he would say a word or two to the teenagers, but then he pretended not to see it every time.
But he had just glanced hopefully in a certain direction......
It's okay not to look at it, but when you see him, you get angry.
Dong Fu is okay, he is a wild child picked up halfway, but Yi Yao treats him as his own, and he can be called meticulous.
The reality is always like that, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.
Yide was like that at this time, his mouth was already dry, and he couldn't get angry.
So he secretly exerted his spiritual power, and came to a thrilling "Boom when the road is uneven~"
The effect is naturally significant, and all the little ones are like waking up from a dream, with a confused face.
Among the teenagers, only Yi Wu and Yi Shot behaved normally as always, and they are still listening to each other.
Dong Fu knew the next process, and he felt that he also had to participate in this.
He thinks this is also the meaning of the patriarch calling himself.
Yi De cleared his throat and recited the ancestral precepts in a neutral voice.
That's right, Dong Fu thinks that Yi De wants him to integrate into the Yi family faster, and before that, he must understand the rules of the clan.
But Yi De didn't think about it at all, he asked Dong Fulai for another purpose.
The ancestral precepts were read after a while, and then it came to the link that the elders paid the most attention to.
Edder did not remain on the stage, but went to the side of the radicals.
The elders of the family knew that the identity of the patriarch at this time was not the patriarch, but like them, he was also the elder of the Yi family.
Taking over the position of Yide on the stage was a pedantic old man, who opened his mouth and closed his mouth about the ancestral teachings, ancient laws, and used ancient sayings to report on the collection of beliefs in the area for which the conservatives were responsible.
At this time, he was in high spirits, his face was ruddy, and he couldn't see the slightest sign of dying.
In fact, when Yi De was born, this old man was already the elder of the clan, but his qualifications were limited and he could not break through the threshold of the emperor.
Now that he has stayed at the peak of the emperor for nearly 10,000 years, you must know that the lifespan of the peak emperor of the god race is only 20,000 years.
In other words, this old man's body will not live long, but he is still serving his people.
Even Yide, the person of this opposing faction, had to respect this old man.
The old man finished his talk, and returned to the stool he had prepared for the old man, motionless, his eyes closed, as if he were asleep.
The representative of the radical faction is still Yide.
After a turnover similar to that of the old man, he began to summarize the work.
Everyone's faces were solemn again, knowing that Yide was the patriarch at this time.
“...... Finally, I would like to introduce you to my disciple, Dong Fu."
Dong Fu coldly heard Yide say his name, it seems that he is still some kind of disciple?
"Ah, the old man actually accepted you as a disciple~" Yi Yao shook Dong Fu and kept repeating this sentence
Just when Dong Fu was about to faint, Yi Yao suddenly stopped.
"Oh, no, it's his sister,
He became an old man's disciple, what should I call him~"
Dong Fu finally recovered from Yi Yao's clutches, and he looked towards Yi De.
happened to find that Yi De was looking at himself and Yi Yao with a smile, and Yi Yao also found Yi De's gaze and glared back fiercely.
Yi De motioned for Dong Fu to come over, and only then did everyone in the Yi family in the scene notice Dong Fu.
At first glance, it was a child with a strange breath but couldn't say it clearly, and he was very suspicious of Yide's intentions.
"Isn't this kid having any special physique?"
"Could it be that this son's qualifications are better than those of Yiwu and Yiji?"
......
In fact, they all guessed correctly, but that was also Yide's purpose.
His whereabouts are not a secret in the eyes of those who care, and instead of hiding it, it is better to make a high-profile appearance and reduce some trouble.
Dong Fu walked to Yide's side with a confused expression, and he stared blankly at the thousands of pairs of eyes in front of him.
Those eyes of surprise, envy, jealousy, and so on were looking at him unscrupulously.
"My apprentice Dong Fu has the best qualifications. ”
