Feng Wu didn't speak all the way, and Zhao Ming had to follow silently. The Hall of Hades is located at the back of the Mansion of the Kingdom of Qi, with a green hill in its back and a stream in front of it. The birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, and it is a good place for self-cultivation.

The temple is located in a small separate courtyard, small but guarded by special people. Seeing that his own lady brought an outsider over, he didn't stop it, and silently helped his young lady open the door. Stepping into the black gate, you will come to the place where Feng Wu's family worships their ancestors - Feng's Underworld.

The whole hall is a simple black and white tone, black temple tiles, black carvings, black pillars, even the ground is paved with black bluestone, only the four sides of the hall under the eaves hang plain white flags with the wind, as if the ancestors are telling the descendants something. The occasional birdsong did not destroy the solemnity of the temple, but added to the mystery. There is a phoenix back, in order to wish.

Especially the two black Shi Weng Zhong standing in front of the door, I don't know why the Feng family carved the faces of these two guys very blurred, but the eyes were carved very expressively, standing at the door of the Hades Hall just facing the eyes of the Shi Weng Zhong, which made people unconsciously feel awe.

Although Zhao Ming has always secretly said to himself in his heart, this is just a method of psychological suggestion in ancient times. But for some reason, he always felt that there was really an ancestor of the Feng family watching them, and he had been silently protecting his descendants here.

Zhao Ming himself has never believed in these gods and ghosts, but his reverence for the ancestors is his recognition from the bottom of his heart. It is the ancestors who overcame all obstacles and difficulties to have the world in which our descendants can stand. My generation is not loyal in this life, only worship the common people and worship the high hall!

Just imagine, how fortunate it is for a surname to be extended from ancient times to the present, since the ancestors chose their own surnames, distinguished themselves from the collective, lost the protection of the collective, avoided how many floods and beasts, and avoided many natural and man-made disasters to extend this simple surname to this day.

During this period, each generation must have a male who must survive, either as a descendant or as a successor. Only by maintaining the replacement of hundreds of generations can we ensure that our surname has not been drowned by the torrent of history, and how many ancestors have worked hard to leave this crumbling incense.

There are too many accidents in the course of history, and too many hardships can cut off a small surname. Like a candle flame in a rainstorm, how many lives did the ancestors have to support that side of the world! You can see, where is the surname now? That's the national surname of the Xia Dynasty, the ancestor of China!

Under the impetus of the guards, the door slowly opened, and the air flow caused the ever-bright lights on both sides to sway, pulling Zhao Ming's shadow to the point of indefiniteness, and an inexplicably depressing and mysterious atmosphere flowed in the hall.

Feng Wu carefully washed his dirty hands in the hand basin next to him, tidied up his clothes again, held the three-pillar fragrance hall stick, lit it and worshipped, and recited the words in his mouth three times, each time he had to bow three times and bow nine times. The green smoke is faint and upward, and the wind does not disperse and goes straight to the sky.

Zhao Ming, who followed in, was in the mood to look at the god cards that were not far away. There are not many, and the inheritance of Qi Guogong has only been five generations, and the top is the founder of the original Qi Guogong Shenwu Army, Feng Zhang.

There is also a booklet next to the god card, which should be a biography of the ancestors' exploits, Zhao Ming still remembers that it is recorded in the secret archives of the palace that Feng Zhang's original name is Feng Daniu, a person from Yecheng, and a man of a different race in the north. In order to expel the ambition of foreign races, he changed his name to Zhang, and the ancient jade of Zhang, like a weapon!

Feng Zhang was one of the first people to follow him, Zhao Ming's ancestor, that is, the founding emperor of Great Zhao, Zhao Po. Brave in battle, not afraid of death. Known as Feng Maniac, he once blocked three shots and twelve arrows for Zhao Po, and was the founder of the Shenwu Army. At that time, there was also a saying that the unbroken Shenwu Army could not see Emperor Zhao.

It's a pity that not long after the establishment of Dazhao, he died on the battlefield in the battle of the Southern Tang Dynasty to jointly attack Xiyan, and later posthumously crowned King Wuheng. It's a pity that the brave generals have worked hard all their lives but haven't enjoyed the dividends of Da Zhao. It was precisely because of Feng Zhang's early death that the founding emperor of Da Zhao took special care of Feng Zhang's descendants.

Lao Tzu is a hero, and Feng Zhang's son proves to the emperor that he doesn't need much care. When Feng Zhang died, his son Feng Li was also fighting with his father in the army at that time, the Shenwu army was surrounded, the Southern Tang army retreated to the rear, and his father died in front of his eyes. The whole army is about to be destroyed.

Feng Li was ordered to be in danger, the whole army was clear, abandoned all the weights, put his father in a thin coffin, carried the coffin on his horse to fight, and broke the alien army that was twice as numerous as his own. For a time, the coffin general was in the northwest of the town of Daimyo.

After this victory, there was not one in the Shenwu army at that time, and Feng Li rejected Emperor Zhao's sympathy for returning to his hometown. Carry his father's spiritual position with him to reorganize the Shenwu Army, which has the predecessor and characteristics of the current Shenwu Army. It is all composed of the descendants of the Shenwu Army who died in the battle, and they are extremely united.

After Da Zhao was officially established, he was awarded the title of Duke of Qi and retired with the country. Speaking of which, Feng Li is the authentic first generation of Qi Guogong. Unfortunately, he later fell ill and died on the way to counterinsurgency.

Feng Mu, the third-generation Duke of Qi, is a little special, and his favorite reading is recorded in the secret file. He also took the imperial examination at the beginning of the time, which made the court officials cry and laugh. How to arrange the Wenchen from this family of military generals?

Later, there was also a special law stipulating that the heirs to the imperial court titles were not allowed to participate in the imperial examination, so there were not so many jokes.

It's a pity that God is jealous of this talented man who is both civil and military, and before he can show his talent, he died on the battlefield at a young age.

The fourth generation of Qi Guogong lost his life at an early age, and he was the most upright and peaceful. The greatest contribution is to determine the nature of the Shenwu Army, to transform the Shenwu Army into a cavalry force, to study the tactics of the alien Xiyan cavalry, and to successfully transform the Shenwu Army into a ranger that is not weaker than the Xiyan Iron Cavalry. When he set out for Xiyan, he was killed in a skirmish.

The fifth-generation Qi Guogong is Feng Wu's grandfather, Feng Po. Compared to his ancestors, he is considered to have a long life, but it is a pity that Feng Po himself is not willing to live for so long. A tablet with its name not yet engraved is placed alone in the fifth row. It was Feng Po, a veteran of the battlefield, who prepared it for himself.

There are two tablets in the sixth row, which is so dazzling. It was Feng Wu's father and uncle who died in the Battle of Fayan more than ten years ago.

Zhao Ming was horrified to find that every generation of Qi Guogong was thin, and the head of each generation was not at the end of his life. Could it be that this is the fate of the Qi Guogong family, so God can't help but be too unfair to it, right?

If you guess with the greatest malice, is it precisely because the Feng family has always held the military power of the Shenwu Army that each generation of family heads dies? If that's the case, it's scary. My ancestors, your methods can't be so sinister, can you?

In addition, there are also some smaller spiritual positions on both sides of the hall, Zhao Huang Zhang Li has various surnames, probably with the generals who died with the Duke of Qi in the war, placed in them to share the incense. Judging from Zhao Ming's dark psychology, I am afraid that it is a means to buy people's hearts.

There is also a similar place in the palace, called Valhalla. Modeled after the Lingyan Pavilion of the former Tang Dynasty, the ministers who made great contributions to the various generations of Zhao Huang were only eligible to settle in it after their deaths, and Zhao Ming found the names of the Qi Guogong in the past dynasties.

The effect of buying people's hearts is quite good, and there is a saying among the people that they are born to be the three princes and die into the heroic spirit. After death, the spirit can enter Valhalla, but it is a great honor as a human minister, and it is worth writing a lot of money on his family tree.

The ceremony of Feng Wu's memorial service was not cumbersome, and it did not take long to complete the sacrifice. stepped aside and signaled that it was Zhao Ming's turn. This made Zhao Ming a little strange, this place was not the place where Zhao Ming, an outsider, should come. But Feng Wu not only brought him here, but also asked him to bow down to his ancestors. Doesn't that make sense? He is not surnamed Feng.

In ancient times, the ancestral hall of the family was a very important place. Even his own women and children are not allowed to enter, of course, Feng Wu's situation is too special, although she is a woman, but there is no way to be the next generation of the head of the family of Qi Guogong.

But Zhao Ming is different, he is completely an outsider, according to common sense, unless he comes forward to worship the ancestors of the Feng family on behalf of the imperial court, otherwise he is not qualified to enter the Feng family's underworld, and it is a big faux pas to trespass, let alone sacrifice. Even if he is a prince, the matter of his ancestors is not a joke.

So Zhao Ming is a little confused now, and he doesn't know what etiquette to use for sacrifice. Friends? But there are etiquette rules for friends to sacrifice. Outsiders' rules are simple, just three bows to incense? It's child's play. Under Feng Wu's impatient eyes, Zhao Ming had no choice at all, okay, he was just thinking of being a grandson!

After completing the incense steps as a good junior, Feng Wu was satisfied and withdrew from the underworld with Zhao Ming.

On the way, Zhao Ming couldn't help but ask, "Xiao Wu, why did you take me to your house today?"

"I don't know, grandpa ordered it." Feng Wu replied very simply.

It's strange, with the old lady's sophisticated temperament, what kind of gourd did he buy? What is the purpose of this? Zhao Ming secretly speculated but could not achieve results.

Whatever. Anyway, the old man won't hurt me! Seeing that he couldn't figure it out, Zhao Ming happily put aside this question. Happy followed Feng Wu to the living room, this was the first time he had eaten at someone else's house in ancient times, and he was excited when he thought about it.

The meal was not as rich as he imagined, with a simple five dishes and one soup, and white rice was enough. The atmosphere is really good, the free maid of Sugar Candy is serving on the side, Feng Wu and Zhao Ming sit at the same table, and there is no popular table to eat. Feng Po didn't grasp his identity and frequently persuaded him to drink, and even Feng Wu drank a lot under the stimulation of Zhao Ming's language and the acquiescence of the old man. The atmosphere was warm and harmonious, if it weren't for Feng Wu drinking too much and insisting on pulling Zhao Ming to the martial arts competition, and the old man was watching with a smile on the side, then this family banquet would be perfect.

In the end, Zhao Ming was carried back to the palace by the secret guards, and he was completely immune to the low-alcohol wine of this era, but he was not immune to Feng Wu's violence!
