Chapter 47: Ancestral Hall Shelter

Sending Uncle Xiao away, Xiao Qiang looked at Xiao Yu, as if he was looking at a monster, and said, "Fifty yuan, I thought you wanted five thousand, it seems that you kid hasn't gotten into the eye of money."

Xiao Yu couldn't help rolling his eyes and said, "Whoever doesn't like money, it depends on whom, besides, the village chief and grandfather are not outsiders."

In the evening, Xiao Yu took out his grandfather's robe again and asked his mother to sew it up and prepare it for tomorrow! After coming to Shimo Village for all these years, Xiao Yu has not worn a Taoist robe, so I want to try it tomorrow night, Xiao Yu is now about one meter three, and this Taoist robe is his grandfather's, so it will inevitably be bigger.

"What, you're still wearing this?" Seeing Xiao Yu take out his robe, Xiao Qiang said with some curiosity.

"Well, tomorrow the ghost will come back to visit relatives, if it is an ordinary soul, it is fine, if it meets a lonely ghost, then it is still necessary to dress more formally, so as to pull the wind."

"Pull the wind, pull the wind and fart, a little bit of a big person, wear such a big robe, like singing, and pull the wind, don't let the wind pull up when the time comes, but wrap yourself in."

Xiao Qiang said the most, but he still got up and came to the table, opened the robe with curiosity, looked up and down, and then said, "Let your mother cut the bottom off, this is too long, and there is a hole, if you wear it out, people will think that we abuse you and won't buy you clothes."

"That's no way, now I don't have a robe, I can't wear a short sleeve, then look at it, maybe grandpa will come back tomorrow night, if he sees it, then he won't scold me to death."

Although Xiao Yu said this, he really hoped that his grandfather could come back, but Xiao Yu knew that this was impossible, because his grandfather said that after the soul of a Taoist priest went to the underworld, he would directly go to reincarnation, and then continue to cultivate, until he cultivated into a spirit body, and then went to the spirit world.

However, the spiritual realm is just a thought of cultivators, whether there is one or not, and no one really knows! But Xiao Yu believes that this spiritual realm should exist, otherwise, after those birds and beasts have cultivated the Dao, where they go, it is impossible to stay in the mortal world forever.

"Really? You said your grandfather would come back? Xiao Qiang hurriedly pulled Xiao Yu and said.

After Xiao Yu came to Shimo Village, he learned from his mother that Xiao Qiang used to live with Xiao Yu's grandfather, but the father and son often quarreled, and Xiao Yu's grandfather was a person who loved to wander the rivers and lakes, so the two disagreed, and there was no way, Xiao Yu's grandfather settled outside, and this stay was five or six years, until Xiao Yu was born, and the father and son had contact.

After Xiao Yu's grandfather died, Xiao Qiang always felt guilty and thought that he had not fulfilled his filial piety in front of Xiao Yu's grandfather's knees, so when he heard Xiao Yu say that his grandfather was back, he immediately asked nervously.

Xiao Yu knew what Xiao Qiang was nervous about, and immediately said, "Dad, I'm joking, grandpa won't come back, he has a way, and the Hades Palace doesn't want him, so he should be reincarnated now."

After listening to Xiao Yu's explanation, a trace of disappointment flashed in Xiao Qiang's eyes, and then he said, "Whether you come back or not, burn some paper money for him tomorrow."

Xiao Yu didn't speak this time, just watched his mother sew and mend the robe, but sighed in his heart, "Even if grandpa wants to come back, I guess I can't remember the way home."

After Xiao Yu's mother sewed the robe, Xiao Yu couldn't wait to put it on and try it on, and sure enough, the modified robe fit much better than the original, and now Xiao Yu is only missing a peachwood sword and a yellow cloth bag, so it looks more like a Taoist priest.

This night, Xiao Yu slept very soundly, got up early in the morning, practiced swordsmanship in the yard, hastily ate some food, and wanted to wait for Caidie to arrive, because today is the last day of Caidie, if Caidie does not come, Xiao Yu can only go to the mountain god mouse to ask, but with Caidie's cultivation, I am afraid that he will not dare to be treacherous.

Just when Xiao Yu was sitting with his chin propped up, the sound of firecrackers sounded in the village, and Xiao Yu knew that this was the old village chief who was going to come out this morning!

Today, July 15, is also the day when the old village chief enters the ground, Xiao Yu has nothing to do, so he is ready to go to the old village chief's house first, after all, the time is still early, maybe Caidie is still sleeping!

Standing not far from the old village chief's house, Xiao Yu saw that the people who carried the spirit were ready, because there was only an urn in the coffin, so the coffin was very light, and the four young people lifted it up without any burden,

Xiao Yu stood on the side of the road, listening to the sound of firecrackers, and then a burst of crying sounded to the sky, and then Uncle Xiao last night walked out with a brazier, followed by some wreaths, as well as boys and girls holding children, as well as relatives on white horses, all with sad expressions, where they passed, the paper was scattered all over the ground, and it looked very spectacular.

In fact, at this time, Xiao Yu was also very puzzled in his heart, after the old village chief was killed, the female ghost said that he did not see the soul of the old village chief, where did the soul of the old village chief go? Xiao Yu's first thought was that he was taken away by the city god, but who is the city god, how can he care about a soul, but the soul is not taken away by him, how can it disappear under the eyes of the female ghost?

Xiao Yu opened the eyes of the sky, and after the team carrying the coffin left, he entered the courtyard of the old village chief, and looked around, but he did not find the soul of the old village chief, and at this moment, Xiao suddenly heard a crying voice, the sound was intermittent, listening to the voice should be an old man, but in broad daylight, how could there be an old man crying?

Although the sound came and went, Xiao Yu could still hear it, and the sound was around, so he stopped while walking, and after a while, he stood outside the Xiao family ancestral hall, and the sound came from inside the ancestral hall.

"Who could it be, crying here early in the morning" Xiao Yu said secretly in his heart, and immediately walked into the ancestral hall, at this time, Xiao Yu was suddenly stunned, because the crying was no one else, it was the old village chief, but now the old village chief can be said to be unrecognizable, half of his head and half of his body are gone, and his whole body is pitch black, looking the same as when he died.

"Grandpa the village chief, why are you here?" Although the village chief died, Xiao Yu had seen a lot of things, so he was not too afraid, and immediately stepped forward to ask.

When the old village chief heard Xiao Yu's voice, he didn't care at first, after all, he was now a soul, and mortals couldn't see him, but when Xiao Yu stood in front of him, he knew that Xiao Yu could see him.

"Xiao Yu, can you see me?" The old village chief stopped crying and said in surprise.

"Grandpa the village chief, I'm a Taoist priest, of course I can see you, but why are you here? Why don't you go into the ground? ”

"Hey, Grandpa hasn't thanked you yet, help me kill that monster! You see my grandfather like this now, I'm afraid of going out to be scary, so I hide here and wait for the night to go out."

Xiao Yu paused for a moment, and couldn't help laughing, "Grandpa the village chief, this is what you looked like when you died, you can change it, the yin soul can change at will, don't you know?" ”

"Oh, are you serious?" The old village elder said happily.

"Of course, I don't believe you try," Xiao Yu nodded.

After a person dies, although he retains the appearance of when he died, after all, he is a ghost, so he still has the basic ability to transmogurate, but when ghosts appear in front of humans, they generally show a very terrifying appearance, so when people mention ghosts, they feel afraid.

When the old village chief heard Xiao Yu say this, his heart immediately moved, and his face suddenly returned to his previous appearance, which couldn't help but make him overjoyed, stood up and looked at his arm and said, "Grandpa also said that he looked like this, he couldn't go to see his ancestors, but now it's okay."

"Grandpa the village chief, how did you come to the ancestral hall?"

The old village chief shook his head and said, "I don't know, after I was killed by zombies, my soul has not left, I was pulled here, because I was afraid that others would see it, so I hid in the ancestral hall, just now I saw the appearance of the children when they left, I was sad and cried!" If you hadn't come today, I wouldn't know what to do."

Xiao Yu nodded suspiciously, and then looked at the furnishings of the ancestral hall, but in the entire ancestral hall, except for a few rows of spiritual positions, there was nothing else! But this ancestral hall still has the power to protect it, which made Xiao Yu a little surprised.

"It seems that the ancestor of the Xiao family saw that the female ghost was outside, so he pulled your soul in, otherwise, it is estimated that you would have been eaten by the female ghost by now" Xiao Yu said with a smile.
