Volume 3, Longyuan Ancient Land_Chapter 21, into the ancestral hall
The news brought by Sanlong is very shocking, and the whole intelligence is equivalent to saying that a strong man who once dominated the rivers and lakes and may reach the level of an earth immortal actually wants the help of our group of gangsters in the rivers and lakes, which is strange when you think about it.
"And then? The master of the Xuanfeng Gate is not staying in the sect, how can he come to the red dust? I asked curiously.
The details of what happened after this are unknown. But judging from some of the information I have, Xuanfengmen once had an alliance with the Great Yuan Tiancheng Mansion back then, and of course this is not a big secret. Many people know about this matter, and the collusion between good and evil is not the first one. And in terms of time. Not long after this collusion between good and evil, Xuanfengmen changed the dynasty. And since then, it has been the current master of the door in power, and I am afraid there are still some unknown secrets in this. When Sanlong said this, it seemed that it was really like that.
The collusion between the Great Yuan Tiancheng Mansion and the Xuanfeng Gate has been going on for a long time, and the decline of the Zhongtian Gate is also because it has been attacked by the two major sects, and the reason why the Guan seniors are looking for us now is also to destroy the sleeping ancestor of the Zhongtian Gate. This should not be a coincidence, and I feel more and more as if I have been caught up in an unfathomable conspiracy by my predecessors.
And what I can't figure out the most is that his dignified former head of the Xuanfeng Sect is so strong that I have seen it with my own eyes, why do such powerful people want to find us? What's more, the first time I met him was five years ago, in other words, he found me five years ago, but five years ago, I was not famous at all with the fat man, and he was the lowest person in the circle. Could it be that Bole Soma has taken a fancy to me at a glance?
"This is the detailed information about what I just did, I'll take the money first, go home!" Sanlong didn't stay long, took the money and left the information.
I lit a cigarette, looked at the information at hand, sighed and said, "I'm afraid there will be no leisure this time." ”
The fat man seemed to be in a much better mood, and shouted after hearing my words: "What's the fuck going on, anyway, it's just to help people, go back and talk to Guan Lao about a price, let's go, let's go out for a drink!" If you don't get drunk today, you won't return! ”
The next day, in the afternoon, we made an appointment with Yuan Feng to meet in the field behind Xuanming Temple. It is said that this area has been included in the municipal plan, and will soon begin to be relocated and developed, and even the Xuanming Temple may have to be demolished together. Although it has nothing to do with us, once we came to this is the place where we lived when we were children, it always feels like something has changed a lot and something has been lost. Second, after the Xuanming Temple is demolished, the secrets of the underground may be exposed, and it is estimated that it will be 507 again.
The fat man deliberately stood next to me, separated by two people from Yuan Feng, and he still looked a little guilty. Although I understood, I pretended not to know, pointed to the front and said, "The ancestral hall is in the back, and it is all fields, so it is inconvenient for us to drive there." ”
"You see, Fat Man and I walked on this kind of trail when we were kids, and there was a pig farm behind it, and we both went to see the pigs at first, but then we couldn't stand the smell and didn't go. There is a wooded field in front, and several decent villas in the back, which are said to have been the villas of several American commissioners before the liberation. It's just that when I was a child, I didn't dare to go in, looking gloomy, we were still competing at that time, to see who dared to climb over the wall to go in, and if he dared, everyone would call him the boss of the day. ”
"Needless to say, Brother Shan must have turned it over!" Luo Qiong asked with a smile.
"! His grandson never dared to take too many risks when he was a child, and I always started with me, otherwise why do you think the big guys were called to follow me when he was a child? The fat man couldn't help but interject, I smiled, and after walking for about ten minutes, I saw a mud house, in front of which a wooden gate had been built, and the wooden plaque was gone, but the scale was not small. The fat man pointed to the house and said, "When you arrive, that's the ancestral hall." ”
This ancestral hall was almost abandoned when I was a child with the fat man, and it was smashed as a representative of the cow ghost and snake god during the Cultural Revolution, and there were many strange stories during that time. It is said that at that time, the Red Guards and a group of excited people came to the ancestral hall with red books held high. said that this is a feudal superstition, and it must be broken! began to smash it, at that time the ancestral hall was an old man in the village, very old, eighty years old, his eyes were not good, his body was also very weak, but his temper was particularly twisted, and when he saw that they were going to smash the ancestral hall, he came forward to stop it. At that time, the group of young people were all on the head, who cared whether the old man lived or died, and even the old man criticized it together. The eighty-year-old man hung a wooden sign around his neck, with big feudal characters written on it, and his hair was shaved, and he was pulled out of the ancestral hall for criticism. Several people surrounded him and asked him to recite Marxism, but the old man said that he was illiterate. The Red Guards in the back smashed all over the ancestral hall. Even the tablet enshrined in it was smashed, and the old man shouted anxiously that this was retribution. And a group of people scolded him again for being a gossip to confuse the people.
Unexpectedly, at this time, the originally good sky suddenly became gloomy, and within a moment, dark clouds filled with thunder and lightning, and then a strong wind blew, and rain as big as beans poured down.
At that time, many onlookers felt that something was wrong, saying that God was going to be angry and ran to the house, but a group of young children came up, where to care so much, and shouted for everyone not to go. He also said that the power of the people is the greatest and can fight with the sky. Unexpectedly, one of the most fierce children raised his hand and was shouting slogans, when a thunderbolt fell from the sky and hit the child. At that time, everyone was stupefied, and after the thunder and lightning, the child who was split seemed to be scorched, and there was no good skin on his body, and he died before he could treat people. The red book in his hand is also burned, and the whole scene is terrifying!
As soon as they saw God's anger, those who were still shouting slogans were all dumbfounded. Then more and more thunder and lightning passed through the clouds, and the thunder was loud, as if God was angry. Seeing that the situation was wrong, everyone fled in a panic, leaving the old man and the half-demolished ancestral hall.
But after this incident, no one came here to make trouble, and because of this incident, the ancestral hall was barely preserved until today.
Today's ancestral hall has no one to worship the ancestors, and the old man who cares about it has already been buried in the earth, and few people know about the legend of the ancestral hall now, and even if young people know it, most of them regard it as fun. If I hadn't done this with the fat man, I might have thought of the story as an unexpected event or some kind of paranormal phenomenon. But now it seems to me that it is not the gods in the sky who are protecting this ancestral hall, but some old monster underground.
We walked to the door, the wooden shelves on the gate looked very dry, the surrounding fence was mostly down, and the wooden plaque was long gone. The fat man looked at his watch and muttered, "Why didn't Senior Guan come?" It's afternoon. ”
"No, let's go first. Fatty, you lead the way, let's go and see the moving faucet you mentioned. ”
After finishing speaking, the four of us went to the ancestral hall first, and felt the breath around us, which was not very chaotic, and the calm breath meant that there were no ghosts and monsters here. The ancestral hall was originally not a big place, and the tablets enshrined in the hall were gone, but old futons and many dusty tables and chairs could still be seen on the ground. Go around the lobby and go to the back to see the dragon head, which is said to be older than the ancestral hall. I heard that this is the mansion of an ancient official, and then the official was killed, the real estate under his name was washed away, no one repaired it for a long time, and finally it was dilapidated, this dragon head was originally made of a pool, there is the meaning of the dragon absorbing water, but after the construction of the ancestral hall, this pool was filled, and the house was rebuilt into the appearance of the ancestral hall. At the same time, we kept the dragon head, we walked to the back of the lobby, and when we looked up, there was a stone wall in the middle of the courtyard, and on the wall hung a dragon head sculpture about the size of a human head, just like when I was a child.
