70. East Shrine (I)

At the same time, in a house similar in size to Zhang Tianru's house, the two doors of the hall were open, and incense was burning on the long wooden table. Shen Zhifei, the patriarch of the East Ancestral Hall, was like the portrait of Sage Kong hanging in the middle hall, his eyes seemed empty and drifting, looking at the middle-aged man sitting on the stone bench by the locust tree in the courtyard.

Shen Wenqi, like Zhang Tongren of the West Ancestral Hall, is the person sent out to serve the patriarch in the ancestral hall. In fact, whether it is Zhang Tianru or Shen Zhifei, they have their own families, and they don't need to be taken care of by others at all, so the real identities of Shen Wenqi and Zhang Tongren are a bit similar to secretaries, after all, the family members and children of the patriarch cannot interfere in the specific government affairs of the clan.

Taking advantage of the fact that a fallen leaf was swept up by the wind, Shen Wenqi adjusted his sitting posture, the two days of "four anti-days", now it seems that he has reached a critical transition moment, but the patriarch Shen Zhifei seems to be a little abnormal, just meditated in the room for a long time, his face is gloomy and worried, holding a pot of strong tea, as if thinking about something. As the sky outside, his expression was constantly changing. The atmosphere of the East Shrine has always been solemn, and at this moment it is like the clouds in the sky, and the wind and rain are coming.

Shen Wenqi glanced at Shen Zhifei, then lowered his gaze, and his heart was like an autumn leaf flying in the wind, hanging in the air, unable to settle down for a long time.

At this moment, there was a sudden "bang" knock on the door. Shen Wen was startled and stood up suddenly, but he still looked at Shen Zhifei first. Shen Zhifei was also shocked, during the four days of rebellion, who in the town would be responsible for what, at this sensitive moment, willing to risk the punishment of the town rules, abandon the precepts and ignore the door?

Although Shen Zhifei was puzzled, he still nodded at Shen Wenqi. Shen Wenqi endured the panic in his heart, when it came to age, he was also in his thirties, and he had seen a lot of dirty things in the East and West Ancestral Halls, but he knew his identity and status, and there were many things that he could see, knowing that it was wrong, but he didn't have the right to speak.

The courtyard door opened, and Shen Wenqi couldn't help but pause, the person who came was not the old man in the East Ancestral Hall, nor the people in the West Ancestral Hall. Standing at the door was a young girl, with long hair hanging down her shoulders, her face was slightly pale, her lips were missing blood, and there was a faint hint of evil between her eyebrows, but it was the girl Siyue who was driven out of the West Temple and abandoned the chapter from Shen.

"Siyue! How can you ...... at this time" Shen Wenqi looked at Si Yue's face and stopped what he was about to say. It is strictly forbidden to go out on the fourth day, and it is even more taboo to log in to other doors, but he suddenly felt a chill in his heart, the girl in front of him is not an ordinary person like her only champion brother Zhang Tongzu in Wenfeng Town in recent years. Everyone in the town knows about it, and even Zhang Tianru, the patriarch of the West Temple, also values her very much. Moreover, the cause of this chaos in the town was the death of Siyue's brother Zhang Tongzu.

Siyue and Shen Wenqi are of the same generation, she bowed her head lightly, "I'm here to ask to see the princess......"

Although the two are of the same generation, Shen Wenqi can almost be said to have watched Si Yue grow up, but it seems that overnight, after experiencing the tragic death of Zhang Tongzu, Si Yue seems to have suddenly changed as a person. Shen Wenqi watched her enter the hospital, but did not say anything to ask.

Shen Zhifei frowned, "Siyue, you are now a member of the East Ancestral Hall, you need to know all the taboos of the Four Adverse Days, and you should visit at night, if you offend all the gods again, I am afraid that even the East Shrine will not be able to tolerate you." Although his words were heavy, even Shen Wenqi could hear that Shen Zhifei, the patriarch of the East Ancestral Hall, obviously had a special tolerance for Siyue.

"Taigong ......" Si Yue bowed down according to the old rites of the ancestral hall, "Si Yue has doubts and can't figure it out, so I hope that Tai Gong can solve Si Yue's doubts." Her tone was soft and soft, but her attitude was resolute, without mentioning how she collided with the taboo of the four anti-suns.

"Say it." Shen Zhifei also seemed to automatically ignore Siyue's actions, picked up the tea and took a sip, and suddenly felt that the tea tasted different, and it was already a night since the fourth day.

"Taigong, when the time is over, the four days will pass, and when the shrine ceremony is really over tomorrow, will the bad luck in the town be dissipated?" Si Yue tilted her head slightly, her long hair hung down like a waterfall, she was still so light, but the evil aura on her body became thicker and thicker.

Shen Zhifei raised his eyebrows and paused the teacup on the table. This is the bottom line that he and even the East Ancestral Hall and the entire Wenfeng Town cannot touch. Although Wenfeng Town is buried deep in the Loess Plateau and isolated from the world, it can be said that they are willing to be closed, because they have the inheritance of champions in the past generations and have a profound cultural heritage, which is enough to support the pride in the heart of the town. However, this pride is by no means built on the town of Champions. The people of Wenfeng Town have actually known for a long time that behind the name of their champion town, there must be a huge secret hidden, after so long, the art of choosing auspiciousness has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, between the east and west temples, even if there is a Zhang Tianru, but not many people doubt that Wenfeng Town's unique endowment has nothing to do with the mandate of heaven, and this mandate of heaven, there is no doubt about it, is why Wenfeng Town can continue to champion the origin.

Siyue brushed the long hair that drooped in front of her, her movements were natural and gentle, as if she was facing the clear water and blue sky, she seemed to smile, "Taigong, the shrine ceremony is held as scheduled every year, but why didn't the ancestors protect the ancestors......

The source of the rebellion in Wenfeng Town is Zhang Tongzu, in the eyes of all the people in Wenfeng Town, it is clear that Zhang Tongzu brought outsiders into the town privately when he was "Kui Xing Dian Dou", not to mention that Zhang Tongzu is still a person in the West Ancestral Hall, and the East Ancestral Hall did not produce another champion of the East Ancestral Hall in accordance with the laws of history after him. Shen Zhifei didn't speak, just looked at Siyue silently, a faint glimmer of light in his eyes.
