Chapter 273 Sacrifice

After Feng Yuerong finished speaking, Chu Feng was also surprised, carefully observing the stone statue, and his heart was full of infinite respect for this stone statue.

Subsequently, Chu Feng asked: "It turns out that this stone statue is actually the first generation of Sword Saint, I just heard that the first generation of Sword Saint is the predecessor of the concubine, and the others don't know, it turns out that the predecessor of the concubine has suppressed the ghosts in this ghost mountain here." ”

Speaking of the first generation of Sword Saints, Feng Yuerong is also full of infinite respect, and she is very respectful in her heart.

"About the matter of the predecessors of the concubines, I heard my grandfather talk about it before, at that time, when our Xia Kingdom had just been founded, the predecessors of the concubines were already very famous, known as the first person at that time, and once helped the then monarch to quell the rebellion of the Quartet, so that our Xia Kingdom has been at peace since then.

Later, with the help of the monarch, the Holy Academy was established to cultivate countless national pillars for our Xia Kingdom. However, it is a pity that after the death of the predecessor of the concubine, there is no descendant. ”

Chu Feng said curiously: "The predecessors of the concubine have no descendants? Why is this, is it that the predecessors of the concubine have never married in their lives?"

Feng Yuerong said: "I heard my grandfather say that at that time, there was a confidante of the predecessor of the concubine, and later when the predecessor of the concubine was quelling the rebellion of the Quartet, the confidant of the predecessor of the concubine died in that rebellion. Later, after the predecessors of the concubine put down the rebellion of the Quartet, they began to live in seclusion, and never heard of other confidantes around them. ”

After listening to the things of the predecessors, Chu Feng also sighed in his heart, as the founding hero, the first person at that time, the second half of the life of the predecessors of the concubines was so lonely, which also proved how infatuated and single-minded the predecessors of the concubines were.

As a descendant, Chu Feng stepped forward to put three sticks of incense on the stone statue of Yun Qian's predecessors, and Feng Yuerong also put on three sticks of incense like Chu Feng, in order to show respect and remembrance of Yun Qian's predecessors.

After the incense was served, the people in the village began to sacrifice, in front of the ancestral hall, the people in the village gathered together, lit torches in the middle, and began to hold a ceremony, this is a relatively ancient ritual, Chu Feng and Feng Yuerong have not seen it, so they have to watch it honestly on the side.

This is a ceremony held by the people of the village to commemorate the predecessors of the concubines, and at the same time, it can also strengthen the formation here. This formation has been guarding here for thousands of years, not only has it not weakened, but it is getting stronger and stronger, the most important of which is to absorb the prayers of the villagers here, this is the power of all living beings, and it is also a very magical power in this world, generally speaking, only the people of the Holy Fate can accept this power, just like the grandfather of the Sword Saint and Feng Yuerong today, some people can absorb the power of the living beings through the incense worship of their stone statues, so as to make themselves closer to the Holy Dao.

Subsequently, Chu Feng and Feng Yuerong, like the villagers here, offered sacrifices and prayed for blessings, and obtained the blessings of their predecessors.

The ceremony lasted about an hour, and after it was over, the villagers returned, where incense was burning and smoke was curling. Chu Feng and Feng Yuerong also had a very wonderful feeling in this fireworks, this feeling had also appeared before, that is, when they just came back from the Valley of the Medical Immortals, in a small town, the two of them helped the people in the town, so the people there made stone statues for the two of them, and after receiving the incense, they obviously felt a very wonderful power.

The two of them felt this wonderful feeling, and it was only when everyone else was gone that they came out of this feeling. The old woman and Meng Siyuan should also go back, Chu Feng and Feng Yuerong didn't want to go back, so they let them go back first. Here, the two of them had a very wonderful feeling, so they decided to stay here a little longer.

Chu Feng and Feng Yuerong were both monks, as long as they didn't go to the Ghost Mountain, there would be no danger, and the old woman was also relieved that they were here, so she went back with Meng Siyuan first for the time being.

After the old woman and Meng Siyuan left, Chu Feng and Feng Yuerong began to cultivate here. The two sat in the ancestral hall, sitting opposite each other, next to the stone statue of the predecessor of the concubine, surrounded by bright candles, cigarette smoke dancing, a piece of peaceful and rui.

Outside is the gloomy ghost mountain, which forms a strong contrast with here, the yin energy of those ghost mountains can't come here, just because there are concubines and predecessors who left this big array, this is the ancient formation, Feng Yuerong didn't figure out what kind of big array this is, but she can obviously feel the power of this big array, and she can take the initiative to absorb the aura of heaven and earth and the incense gas here, which is very mysterious.

Now, with the help of this formation, the two of them began to cultivate, and they cultivated very quickly, this is not an improvement in strength, but a kind of enlightenment of wisdom, in short, it is to improve their understanding of the Dao and strengthen their Dao heart. In this cultivation, the two of them borrowed the light of their predecessors, and in this statue, the two of them felt a very powerful power of the Dao, which could not be explained by words, but by their own understanding of the Dao.

The night outside was dark, and there was mist scattered from the sky, and the ghost mountain was also shrouded in mist, looming, which seemed to add a bit of mystery. Without being disturbed by the outside world, Chu Feng and Feng Yuerong were both immersed in their own perceptions, and they felt carefully, until the sky outside began to brighten, and the two of them came back to their senses from this feeling.

The two opened their eyes almost at the same time, and when they saw each other, they smiled slightly, as if they both knew each other's intentions.

Through this night's insights, both of them have gained a lot, and their understanding of the Tao is also more profound, and many things about the Tao that Mr. Zhong talked about before are basically all enlightened at this moment, which is also the fastest time since the two of them learned Taoism.

Feng Yuerong stretched her body and said, "Chu Feng, this time in my cultivation, I have understood a lot of truths, and many things that Teacher Zhong said before, I have now understood all of them." ”

Chu Feng congratulated: "Then I really want to congratulate you, I am also the same as you, this time my perception is much faster than before, many things, it didn't take long to understand all of a sudden." ”

Feng Yue Rong said happily: "I know what's going on, it's all the seniors of the concubine who are helping us?"

"Senior Yu Qian is helping us?" Chu Feng didn't quite understand.

Feng Yuerong said: "The predecessor of the concubine is the first generation of sword saints, and the original cultivation has been measured by the heavens and the earth, although the predecessor of the concubine has passed away, but there are still the stone statues of the predecessor of the concubine and the formation left here, we are cultivating here, and naturally we have also sensed the Dao power of the predecessor of the concubine, as well as the power of the people here for the sentient beings of the predecessor of the concubine, we have also absorbed some, so we will progress so fast." ”

Chu Feng nodded and said, "So that's the case, then this time, we are really stained with the light of our predecessors." ”

Subsequently, Chu Feng and Feng Yuerong bowed to the stone statue of the predecessor of Yu Qian at the same time.

After the two walked out of the ancestral hall, they breathed the fresh air outside the world and saw it, and felt comfortable all over the body, and there was a faint feeling of breaking through.

After listening to last night's perception, the two of them had a deeper understanding of the Dao, and correspondingly, the cultivation speed of the two was much faster than before, and now, both of them had such a feeling that it would not take long to break through to the late stage of the Sword Venerable.

After staying in front of the ancestral hall for a short time, the two of them walked together to the old woman's house, and now that it was dawn, they also set off for their home.

When they arrived at the old woman's house, the old woman gave them a brief breakfast, and then prepared to leave.

In order to show the old woman's affection, Feng Yuerong took out some silver and wanted to give it to the old woman, but the old woman did not accept it, and Feng Yuerong had no choice but to give up. Afterwards, the three of them said goodbye to the old woman and rode away together.

Chu Feng rode with Meng Siyuan, and the three of them rushed all the way to Zhouyang County. It took about half a day to gallop all the way, and the three of them came to the gate of Zhouyang County.

After the three of them dismounted, looking at the familiar city gate, Meng Siyuan suddenly stopped and looked ahead.

Chu Feng asked, "Young Master Meng, why don't you leave?"

Meng Siyuanxian's heart was heavy, and he said, "I, I'm a little afraid to go in. ”

"Why is this?" Chu Feng wondered.

Meng Siyuan looked at Chu Feng and said, "I, I'm a little scared, at the beginning, I didn't know what was going on, so I was thrown into the ghost mountain, and now, I don't know who did it, why did he harm me like this?"

Feng Yuerong asked: "Young Master Meng, then think about it, do you have any enemies, could it be your enemies who want to harm you?"

Meng Siyuan said: "I have always done my duty here, and I usually teach in a private school, and I have never had a dispute with others, let alone any enemies. ”

Chu Feng was puzzled: "Then this is strange, if there is no reason, who will harm you?"

Feng Yuerong said: "Meng Gongzi, didn't you say that you ended up drinking with your Uncle Zheng, let's go to him now and ask if it will be clear." ”

Meng Siyuan hesitated a little and said, "Uncle Zheng, Uncle Zheng will not harm me, Uncle Zheng has always been very good to me." ”

Feng Yuerong said: "Meng Gongzi, even if it wasn't your uncle who harmed you, but you drank with him in the end, he must know what was going on." ”

Meng Siyuan thought for a while and said, "Okay, then I'll go to Uncle Zheng now." ”

Feng Yuerong asked, "By the way, what does that Uncle Zheng of yours do?"

Meng Siyuan replied: "Uncle Zheng is the county magistrate here, and every day after class, I will teach Uncle Zheng's son at Uncle Zheng's house. ”

Feng Yuerong said: "Is it the county order here? Then there must be something here, let's go, let's go to him now to ask him for clarification." ”

After the three of them entered the city, they came out of the city wall and saw a notice, the three of them walked forward, and after seeing the content on it, Meng Siyuan suddenly became nervous.

"How could Caidie be seriously ill, what the hell is going on?" Meng Siyuan muttered to himself.

Feng Yuerong asked: "This girl named Caidie is the daughter of the county magistrate here, Meng Gongzi, do you know her too?"

Meng Siyuan nodded and said, "We know each other, how could she be sick, I'm going to see her." ”

Seeing Meng Siyuan so nervous, Feng Yuerong asked with a smile: "Meng Gongzi, seeing that you are so nervous about this girl named Caidie, what is the relationship between you and her?"

Meng Siyuan blushed slightly, and then said, "We, we are very good friends. ”

"Hee-hee, are you just a good friend?" asked Feng Yuerong with some gossip.

Meng Siyuan smiled slightly and said: "We, just have a good relationship, when I went to Uncle Zheng's house to teach Uncle Zheng's son Xuebao, I met Miss Caidie, and then after a long time, I also got to know each other, and when I was teaching, I was also taken care of by Miss Caidie many times, so Miss Caidie was kind to me, and I will naturally repay it." ”

After listening, Feng Yuerong smiled and said: "So that's the case, then this colorful butterfly girl is your confidante, hehe......hee"

When Feng Yuerong said this, Meng Siyuan also looked very embarrassed, did not refute, nor nodded, which was regarded as acquiescence.

Subsequently, Meng Siyuan said in a hurry: "The notice said that Caidie is seriously ill, and many doctors are helpless about it, I want to go and see Caidie." ”

Feng Yuerong stopped and said: "Meng Gongzi, don't worry about it first, things are a bit messy here, you better figure out first, it matters who is harming you." In this case, it's important for you to find a place first, and we'll go see your butterfly girl for you first, how about it?"

Meng Siyuan thought for a while, nodded and said, "Okay, then trouble Miss Feng and Young Master Chu." ”

Chu Feng said: "Meng Gongzi, then you can find a place to live first, it just so happens that I know some medical skills, so I will go and see what kind of illness Miss Caidie has?"

Meng Siyuan thanked him: "Thank you Gongzi Chu, then I will go to the Juyuan Inn here first to wait for you." ”

Chu Feng said: "Okay, Master Meng, after we see the colorful butterfly girl, we will go to the Juyuan Inn to find you." ”

Meng Siyuan thanked him and said, "Then everything will trouble Young Master Chu and Aunt Feng." ”

Feng Yuerong said with a smile: "Master Meng, don't worry, this matter will be handed over to us." ”

Subsequently, the three of them separated, Meng Siyuan went to the Juyuan Inn, and Chu Feng and Feng Yuerong took down the notice, preparing to go to see the seriously ill Caidie girl.
