As Shen Qingtang said, if you want to steal Jufangding out smoothly, you need to pass two levels. The first level is Shen Xiao's blood, but this blood is not only limited to the current Shen family head, that is to say, the blood of the previous family heads can be used as the 'key' to break the door of the stone tower;

Therefore, in the end, if this Jufangding is stolen, then this thief is likely to be a member of the Shen family. And Shen Xiao summoned the people of the Wufang clan to the ancestral hall to prepare for 'catching thieves', because if it was the Shen family, the spirit snake would be easy to avoid, but to get the blood of the head of the family, Shen Xiao had to determine another thing, although this would be disrespectful to the ancestors of the Shen family, but in order to prove his conjecture, he had to do it.

If it weren't for the rhetoric of opening the altar to worship the ancestors, it would be impossible to get people together if you want to come to the five rooms of the Shen family now. At this time, when these Shen family disciples faced these tablets placed in the ancestral hall in turn, they had already begun to wonder, thinking about how this year's altar to worship ancestors was this day and hour, and it seemed that they had not yet passed the divination, so they all secretly felt that the head of the family, Shen Xiao, was more and more fond of being arbitrary.

Someone couldn't hold back the question in his heart and only took the lead in asking, "Big brother, but Ju Fangding has found it?" As soon as the people in one room spoke, several people began to echo them.

But Shen Xiao didn't answer, and someone in the other room was whispering, "If Ju Fangding is found, why do you suddenly want to worship your ancestors?" "Because no one would think that this ancestor worship will be related to Jufangding.

Shen Xiao glanced at the children of the Shen family in the ancestral hall and outside the ancestral hall, and some of them were holding children who were crying. So you can imagine how noisy this scene must be, so he stood in front of the tablet and said angrily, "Silence! ”

As soon as these words came out, it was still very effective, and when no one spoke anymore, even the crying of the children seemed to be gone. Seeing this, Shen Xiao asked the other four clan leaders to sit down. "Jufangding has still not been recovered." He spoke.

"I haven't found it yet, this is a family heirloom!"

"I'm going to die from now on, but how can I have the face to meet the ancestors of the Shen family!"

Everyone knows the importance of Jufangding, and there are those who curse, or shake their heads and sigh, but Shen Xiao only remained silent and continued to say in a normal tone, "That's why I invited everyone to come over today, to catch the thief with everyone." ”

"Big brother is going to mobilize us to catch thieves? But we've already sent a lot of people, and it's not like we're missing anything. ”

Shen Xiao glanced at everyone, and finally settled on the person who spoke, "I mean catching a thief." ”

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar. Everyone looks at each other, has the meaning of dismissing themselves, and of course they are also suspicious of each other.

"As we all know, Jufangding has always been placed on the top of the stone tower, and the last time it was used was five years ago. And to open the door of the stone tower, you need the blood of the head of the family, plus the stone tower is guarded by a spirit snake, in this case, if anyone wants to steal, they have to weigh their own strength."

Everyone nodded, and Shen Xiao said, "But there are exceptions, that is, if this thief is our Shen family, then everything will be simple." This person knows that the blood of the head of the family is not limited to me, but can also be the previous head of the family, and because he is a member of the Shen family, he is not afraid of the spirit snake, so he can naturally steal Jufangding. ”

"But eldest brother, all the previous heads of the family have already driven to the west, so how can we get blood like this?" Even the most recent head of the family, such as Shen Xiao's father, had been dead for nearly eight years, so in this case, this rotting corpse should only have white bones left, and there would be no need to extract blood.

"That's true, it's just that there is still a head of my Shen family who is not buried, but has always been enshrined in the Buddhist hall."

Put it on offering? Of course, some of the younger generation of the Shen family didn't know that there was such a family head, so someone asked, "Which family head is the uncle talking about?" ”

Shen Xiao pointed to the rightmost side of the front row of the tablet, "My father was the former head of the family, but after his death, the Shen family was presided over by my aunt Shen Yuan for a period of time, and it was not until I passed the year of the weak crown that I succeeded to the position of head of the family. ”

After Shen Xiao said this, some of the elderly children of the Shen family finally remembered Miss Shen Yuan, who never married for the sake of the Shen family. This person was originally a person who contributed to the Shen family, but because of a fate, she said that she was hidden in the ancestral grave after death or made the Shen family's luck bad, so she was not allowed to be buried in the ancestral tomb of the Shen family, but had to be placed in the Buddhist hall in the backyard of the Shen family, and the whole body was covered with spices, until now the body has not decomposed.

"What do you mean by the eldest brother, this thief is taking the blood of the eldest aunt?" If it is Shen Yuan's blood, then everything makes sense.

Shen Xiao didn't answer, and only started the actual 'operation'. He motioned to Shen Qingtang, who asked the servant to carry a coffin. Everyone watched that even the coffin was carried to the ancestral hall, and they were all speechless in surprise. And next, Shen Xiao was even more 'bold', only reciting the recipe in his mouth, and after the incense was finished, he had to ask the servant to open the lid of the coffin.

Seeing this, the four room masters also wanted to step forward to stop it. "Big brother, you, you are disrespectful." "Big brother, no!"

But no matter what they say, this is a sure failure. Shen Xiao only asked the servant to continue to remove the lid of the coffin, so the face of a woman with her eyes closed and who seemed to be around forty years old was revealed in front of everyone.

Shen Xiao spread out his palm, Shen Qingtang handed over a silver needle, he rolled up his sleeves, took the woman's hand, and poked it with the silver needle, and a drop of blood came out, and then he took a small piece of stone belonging to the gate of the stone tower, and after dripping the blood on it, the stone seemed to be corroded, and a hole was allowed.

"Because this is the blood of the deceased family master, the power to restore the gate of the stone tower has gradually disappeared, but it is more than enough to let this thief enter the stone tower and steal Ju Fangding out." If he is like Shen Xiao, he is the current head of the Shen family, and naturally the power of this blood is at the right time, so his blood can not only corrode the gate of the stone tower, but also restore it.

"It's really hard to prevent thieves, big brother, what do you say next? How can we find this thief? ”

Shen Xiao asked the servant to close the coffin, and after carrying it down, he suddenly knelt down in front of the ancestral tablets. Seeing this, the rest of the Shen family's children could only kneel down with them, and Shen Xiao said at this time, "Shen Xiao, the descendant of the Shen family, because he wants to thoroughly investigate the theft of Jufangding, please open the ancestral tomb tomorrow, and ask the ancestors of the Shen family to know." ”
