Song Yushu looked at the black and white photo of her daughter hanging in front of her with dull eyes. She couldn't believe that her lovely daughter had been blown up three days earlier, and she hadn't even found a single piece of her bones.

Today is the Midyear Festival, and the day that was supposed to worship the ancestors has become a day of funeral for his daughter.

Most of the people who came to the funeral were Mu Wanyu's friends before his death, as well as friends of Mu Xiaotian and his wife. In terms of relatives, only Mu Wanyu's little uncle's family came, and in addition, no one from the Mu and Song families came.

Regarding the news of Mu Wanyu's death, everyone present seemed a little sad, and one of the girls with a peaked cap was even crying. The man with long hair on the side kept handing her tissues.

"Representatives of the family are invited to the stage to deliver eulogies. The master of ceremonies said.

The master of ceremonies retreated, Mu Xiaotian walked to the microphone, the corners of his mouth trembled, and after a few seconds, he coughed lightly, "I'm very grateful... Can you come and send Wanyu... I..."

"Mu Xiaotian!"

A serious and old voice at the door interrupted Mu Xiaotian, who was reading the eulogy. Everyone turned their heads in surprise. I saw a middle-aged man in his forties standing at the door, with a fat body. Behind the man was about a dozen people, both men and women, standing behind the old man.

The old man stared at Mu Xiaotian who was standing next to the coffin with a displeased face. When Mu Xiaotian saw the old man, he walked off the stage with a little panic on his face and trotted to the door.

Mu Xiaotian stood in front of the old man and lowered his head like a child and whispered, "Second grandfather, you are here." ”

"Hmph! If I don't come, I'm afraid that you Mu Xiaotian will turn the sky upside down!"

"Second grandfather, today is the day of Wanyu's funeral......"

"Smack"

The old man slapped Mu Xiaotian in the face and shouted: "What's wrong with the funeral? For the sake of a junior, dare to break the thousand-year-old rules of my Mu family! Your daughter will die if she dies, and you, as the current head of the family, do not strengthen the safety management of the ancestral hall, and let people blow up the ancestral hall of our Mu family." You don't go to apologize in front of your ancestors and ancestors, and you dare to come here to hold a funeral for your daughter?

The old man's voice was very loud, and everyone present began to talk about it. Mu Xiaoming, who was standing in the family area, couldn't stand it anymore, and hurriedly walked over, "Second grandfather..."

Mu Xiaoming didn't say anything just now, the old man waved his hand and said with a serious face: "Xiao Ming, let the guests all go back." The field is cleared, and we have some family matters to talk about. ”

"Second grandfather, this won't work. This is Wanyu's mourning hall. You're like this..."

"No!Old man, I'm not dead yet, doesn't it work to talk?!"

Ten minutes later, everyone was "invited" out of the mourning hall. The Mu family walked into the mourning hall and closed the door. The mourners outside the door quickly ran to their cars and scrambled to leave the place. No one dared to be dissatisfied with the old man just now, because no one in the entire Beiluo City did not know the Mu family, the head of the five families, and no one knew that the hundred-year-old ancestor of the Mu family, Mu Hezhi. Although he is more than 100 years old, he looks only forty or fifty years old. As soon as he stomped his foot, the entire city of Beiluo was shaken.

But among the mourners, the girl who was crying in the mourning hall and the long-haired man stood at the door, as if waiting for something.

Inside the mourning hall

The junior placed the chair directly east of the mourning hall, and Mu Hezhi sat on the chair. Mu Xiaotian and Mu Xiaoming's two families knelt on the ground, bowing their heads and not daring to make a sound.

"Jian'er, find someone to move the coffin outside the hall, and take out Mu Wanyu's last photo. It's too bad to put that. Mu Hezhi commanded to the middle-aged man on the side. Then he glanced at Mu Xiaotian and said, "If you don't apologize, then it's no wonder that Second Grandpa, I invited all the ancestors to let you apologize here." ”

"Okay, grandpa. I'll do it. The middle-aged man bowed and followed a few people to carry the coffin.

Seeing this, Song Yushu immediately ran to the coffin to stop a few people, crying and screaming: "What are you going to do! This is my daughter's coffin." You can't move!"

Mu Xiaojian glanced at Mu Hezhi with some embarrassment. Mu Hezhi's face was full of anger, and he glared at Mu Xiaotian, who was kneeling in front of him, and shouted: "Song Yushu, I think for the sake of you or my granddaughter-in-law, hurry up and get out of the way for me! Xiao Jian, push her away, and move everything away. ”

Xiao Jian pushed Song Yushu away, and followed a few people to move the coffin out of the lobby. Then a trapezoidal sixth-tier table was brought over and a large wooden box was opened. The wooden box is full of brand new ancestral cards.

Mu Hezhi nodded, and a few people put the brand-new ancestral card on the table again, as if turning the mourning hall into a simple mourning hall.

Mu Hezhi raised his head and "looked" at Mu Xiaotian with his nose and said, "Go, kowtow to the ancestors and ancestors." ”

Mu Xiaotian glanced at the ancestral tablet and found that there was no ancestral Mu Bairan's tablet. According to the rules of the Mu family, when kowtowing to the ancestors, you must first worship the ancestors. Mu Xiaotian frowned slightly and asked, "Why don't you have the ancestor's card?"

Mu Hezhi said impatiently: "A person who doesn't know if it exists, what qualifications do you have for us to offer?" Okay, kowtow quickly." After kowtowing, I still have something to tell you. ”

"But..."

Mu Hezhi was anxious, pointed at Mu Xiaotian and shouted angrily: "What's the matter? Because of your mistakes, our entire Mu family ancestral hall was bombed." Kneel down to your ancestors and admit your mistakes is already cheap. Tonight you move out of the main house and into the side house on the west side. The main room is for Jian'er's family to live in. ”

The entire Mu family lives in a mountain villa in the east of Beiluo City. At the top of the villa is where the ancestors lived, and below is the owner's house, and so on. Mu Hezhi asked Mu Xiaotian to move, in other words, to let him give up the position of head of the family, and his grandson Mu Xiaojian took over as the head of the family.

Mu Xiaotian knew that today, his second grandfather, was determined to pull himself down from the position of the head of the family, so he sighed and walked to the tablet to kneel. Suddenly, the outer door was pushed open. I heard a young male voice shouting, "Mu Xiaotian, have you forgotten your ancestral teaching?"

Everyone looked to the door. I saw a man in a gray trench coat with long silver hair tied into a high ponytail and a girl in casual clothes with a peaked cap and her head bowed standing in the doorway.

Seeing this unknown junior, Mu Hezhi snorted coldly: "Doll, are you a child of that family? Such rudeness, do you know what kind of place this is?"

The man smiled slightly, and his unusually handsome face instantly made everyone present feel a burst of heartbeat. Mu Hezhi realized his gaffe and sneered: "I'm afraid that the fox in this mountain has become a demon, so charming." ”

The man ignored Mu Hezhi, pulled the girl into the mourning hall, walked straight to the ancestral card, and patted Mu Xiaotian on the shoulder, "The men of the Mu family must have backbone." If you don't do something that is unreasonable, you don't do it. Alright, let's step aside with her. The man said and pushed the girl next to him forward.

The girl raised her head and looked at Mu Xiaotian with tears in her eyes, "Dad..."

Mu Xiaotian couldn't believe what he saw, standing next to this man was actually his dead baby daughter.

Mu Xiaotian touched Mu Wanyu's face with trembling hands, and two lines of tears flowed down involuntarily. Song Yushu, who heard her daughter's voice, also got up and ran over and hugged Mu Wanyu. The family stood in front of Zupai and cried.

The man next to Mu Wanyu waved his hand and said, "Okay, little Wanyu, take your parents to stay aside." Grandpa, I still have some things to deal with. ”

Mu Wanyu nodded obediently and walked to the side with her parents.

After vacating the position, the man pushed all the ancestral cards on the table to the ground with one hand. Then he sat down at the table and crossed Erlang's legs and glanced at the Mu family in the room.

Mu Hezhi suddenly stood up, glared at the man and shouted angrily: "Boy, report your name!"

"Yo he, Mu Hezhi? Tsk, how many years haven't you seen me? You haven't come to worship me in seventy or eighty years. Why? I'm old and confused? I don't even know who I am? Take a good look at who I am, I'm your ancestor. ”

Mu Xiaotian, who was standing on the side, always felt that the man looked very familiar, as if he had known him since he was a child, but he didn't know where he had seen him. So he asked Mu Wanyu on the side in a low voice, "Wanyu, who is this guy?"

"He's the old man Mu. ”

"Old man Mu, could it be..."Mu Xiaotian suddenly reacted, and there was only one person in the entire Mu family who called Old Man Mu. That is the jade elephant enshrined in the ancestral temple. The rumored ancestor of the Mu family - Mu Bairan.

Although I don't know why he is here, there is no reason not to bow down when I know the identity of the other party. Mu Xiaotian immediately knelt on the ground, kowtowed and said loudly: "Ancestor is above, please forgive Xiao Tian for being rude." ”

Mu Bairan raised his eyebrows and smiled: "The young man is good, he still has a good eye." ”

Mu Xiaotian's voice of the ancestor opened everyone's memories like a boot password. Everyone finally understood why the man looked so familiar. It turned out that he was the old ancestor of the Mu family, Mu Bairan, who was enshrined alone in the ancestral temple. Thinking of this, no matter whether the young man in front of him was true or not, Except for Mu He, everyone knelt on the ground and shouted in unison: "Ancestor is above, please forgive me for being rude." ”

I heard my group of juniors shouting the young ancestor. Mu Hezhi was furious and shouted: "You fox in the mountains, dare to incarnate as the ancestor of my Mu family to swagger and deceive here. Come on!" he said, jumping up and smashing towards Mu Bairan.

Mu Bairan easily caught Mu Hezhi's fist, and said lightly: "Three turns to Nayuan? tsk, no wonder he is more than a hundred years old, and he is still so energetic." I remember when I left, there were no more cultivators in the Mu family, where did you learn the cultivation method?"

Mu Hezhi didn't answer, and then punched Mu Bairan in the chest.

When he found that his attack was useless to the man in front of him who claimed to be the legendary ancestor Mu Bairan, Mu Hezhi was shocked and shouted at everyone: "I am afraid that this demon is quite deep in cultivation. Run, everybody!"

As soon as Mu Hezhi finished speaking, the Mu family who came with him ran desperately towards the door.

"Noise. Mu Bairan waved his hand lightly, and the door of the mourning hall was automatically locked. As the door closed, Mu Hezhi's whole person also flew out and smashed on the wall on the side. The whole person looked a lot older all of a sudden.

Mu Hezhi looked at his wrinkled hands, and the old voice shouted: "You, you have abolished my sea of qi!"

Hearing Mu Hezhi's voice, he was so frightened by the Mu family he brought that they all sat down on the ground. Only Mu Xiaotian's family was still kneeling on the ground.

Mu Bairan walked up to Mu Xiaotian and said, "Get up, they all run, why don't you run?"

Mu Xiaotian kowtowed and said, "I was at fault first, I failed to guard the tablets of you and the ancestors. ”

Mu Bairan chuckled, "Get up, you should be glad to have given birth to such a pleasing daughter." As for the juniors, everyone is dead, and those brands are useless. Burn it and burn it. ”

After Mu Xiaotian's family got up, Mu Bairan took Mu Wanyu's hand, looked at the group of Mu family members huddled in front of the gate and smiled: "Dare to make trouble at the funeral of my precious grandchildren, you are really bold." You should be glad that she is not dead, otherwise, none of you will survive today. Of course, even if she lives, you may not all live. Okay, Wanyu, go over with your grandfather to have a look, the gold that blew up our gold that day, and it was the bold gadget that blew you up. ”
