The residents of Sanjiang County in the early morning are all in good spirits, and today is also a big day, and the sacrificial hall that has broken the incense will restart the incense today.

The residents of Sanjiang County are very enthusiastic, knowing that in their minds, the ancestors of the gods they worship have sheltered them for generations.

Now that it is of great significance to be closed down and restart the sacrificial hall again, they dare not delay, Jiang Pingchuan followed Zhou Fu and Mrs. Zhou's wife Xiao Wu to the sacrificial hall early in the morning with tribute.

The sacrificial hall is located in the remote area of Sanjiang County, no one has cleaned up all the year round, it has already been overgrown with weeds, Jiang Pingchuan did not get close to the sacrificial hall, since he didn't want to be contaminated with too much cause and effect here, and secondly, they worshipped the Tao on Maoshan Road, not a god, so Jiang Pingchuan chose to stand in the distance and watch quietly.

Master Gao stood at the door of the sacrificial hall with Gao Yao and Ma Mian, where a large incense table was placed, on which the whole suckling pig and various tributes were placed.

I'm afraid that there has been no worship for all these years, and their ancestors are hungry, and the tribute to reopening the sacrificial hall this time is very rich, and it is also to express their apologies.

"Ladies and gentlemen, today we reopen the sacrificial hall, hoping to be able to get the protection of our ancestors, for many years we have broken the incense here to provoke the anger of our ancestors and send disasters here, today we come to worship our ancestors with apologies and ask for their forgiveness"

The tall man said in a thick voice, and the people of Sanjiang County raised their heads and looked at the gate of the sacrificial hall reverently, and the gate was the newly dyed vermilion lacquer gate yesterday.

Two bronze lion doorknobs, it is said that a new hall keeper is arranged here, this hall keeper is the old scholar, the old scholar has read the sage book all his life and does not believe in any ghosts and gods.

Now he took the initiative to find the county official to be the first keeper of the sacrificial hall after the restart, and the county official did not refuse the old scholar, and today's old scholar is particularly energetic.

I found the tailor and bought a blue robe, holding a broom in his hand, and ran to clean the sacrificial hall early in the morning, and it could be seen that the old scholar really wanted to protect the sacrificial hall, but the specific reason is unknown.

After reciting a very complicated Sanskrit passage, the tall man walked up and put his hands on the bronze lion of the gate and slowly pushed the gate.

When the door opened, Jiang Pingchuan glanced inside not far behind the crowd, and when he saw the stone statue placed in the front of the sacrificial hall, Jiang Pingchuan's whole body was like being struck by lightning.

The statue was so familiar, standing quietly in the center of the sacrificial hall, still majestic and kind, still the same old appearance had not changed in the slightest.

The stone statue was carved by his ancestor Hongwu, but after passing through the matter of the old man in the white space, Jiang Pingchuan felt that this statue might just be a doppelganger of the man in the sky.

It doesn't have much to do with his ancestral master, maybe he just looks alike, thinking of this, Jiang Pingchuan's heart also calmed down.

Jiang Pingchuan turned around and just wanted to leave, but suddenly found that the eyes of the stone statue were loosened, how could the eyes of a stone statue be loosened if it was a dead thing.

Jiang Pingchuan stood still and looked towards the stone statue, what he saw was a living person, not a stone statue, is this the phantom array of the sacrificial hall, Jiang Pingchuan thought in his heart, and slowly carefully examined the old man standing at the door of the sacrificial hall.

"Why, little cub, you haven't spoken for so long, and you have forgotten about me, an old man?"

The old man looked at Jiang Pingchuan with a smile and finally spoke, after these words reached Jiang Pingchuan's ears, Jiang Pingchuan was stunned, this is his ancestor Hongwu.

But how did Master Zu come here, how did he become one of the offerings in Sanjiang Town, and how did Master Zu appear here safely.

What about the other people in Maoshan Dao, are they doing well now, Jiang Pingchuan had ten thousand doubts in his heart, but he just looked at Hongwu and couldn't say anything.

"I know what you want to ask, Maoshan Road is gone, this is just one of my sacrifice gods, at the last moment I will inject my will into here through the thousands of continents, just waiting for you to come"

Hongwu said in a sad tone with a sad look on his face, Jiang Pingchuan has not found that his ancestor has spoken faster in these years, and he always speaks slowly, which makes people feel very mysterious.

"Can I go back?"

Jiang Pingchuan choked his throat and said, since he came to Changfeng Continent, he felt how he cried so easily, you must know that when he was in Yuanwu Continent, he made others cry, how could he cry.

"It doesn't matter if you come back or not, the important thing is that you can live well is the hope of our Maoshan Dao, and Maoshan Art cannot be extinguished in the world."

Hongwu looked at Jiang Pingchuan seriously, Jiang Pingchuan heard Hongwu's words and looked at Hongwu's eyes, he knew that Master Zu didn't want him to cry, he sniffled, Jiang Pingchuan snorted, this voice didn't know what he was answering, it was his response to Hongwu.

"Pingchuan must cultivate the Tao well, and will not let the Maoshan technique be wiped out in the world, Master Zu can rest assured"

Jiang Pingchuan sorted out his emotions and said categorically, just like what Maoqiu told him when he was in Hongwu's true qi space.

Hongwu sent himself out is to see him as the seed of Maoshan Dao, the hope of Maoshan Dao, if he disappears and falls, then with the disappearance of the degenerate is the entire Maoshan Dao.

"Pingchuan, you can only rely on yourself in the future, but you don't have to be frustrated, your brother Yulong has no news so far, I think he is very likely to have got a great opportunity and has already left the forbidden land in the back mountain"

Hongwu looked at Jiang Pingchuan and said with a smile, even if it was just a wisp of his will, even if their Maoshan Road had disappeared, he didn't want to put too much pressure on Jiang Pingchuan.

In his eyes, Jiang Pingchuan will always be the child who doesn't grow up in Maoshan Dao, but because of his inability, this child can be burdened with the heavy responsibility left by Maoshan Dao prematurely.

"Brother, is it possible that he is still alive? Master Zu, do you know, my parents are very likely to be alive too."

Jiang Pingchuan heard Hongwu say that his brother Jiang Yulong was still alive, how he hoped that this was not Hongwu comforting him, if his brother really got a great opportunity in the back mountain, he now added his own brother in addition to the person he needed to find before.

"It's good to be alive, and there is hope of seeing each other while alive"

Hongwu's will was a little fluctuating, followed by Jiang Pingchuan's expression, seeing Hongwu's will constantly floating, Jiang Pingchuan's face was full of nervousness, he knew that the will left by the ancestor was about to dissipate.

"Master Zu, Pingchuan is married"

As soon as Jiang Pingchuan's words were finished, Hongwu's face changed, Jiang Pingchuan was stunned and realized that he had said the wrong thing, but before he could explain, Hongwu laughed again.

Nodding at him with a slight smile, he slowly disappeared from Jiang Pingchuan's field of vision, Jiang Pingchuan looked at the empty door of the sacrificial hall, where there was no longer the image of Hongwu's will.

But he still didn't dare to rub his eyes, he was afraid that after rubbing his eyes, Hongwu would really disappear, but what he saw in front of him was that the two young men had completely opened the door of the sacrificial hall.

There are four stone statues standing quietly in the sacrificial hall, Hongwu's is standing in the first place, and there are three behind, two of which are known to Jiang Pingchuan, one is a thousand feather cranes, one is Yu Lao, and there is a stone statue of a woman wearing a veil carved very vaguely.

I don't know if it was because the people at the time didn't see the person's appearance clearly, or if the veiled woman was as ethereal in their minds as the statue depicted.

Jiang Pingchuan watched Master Gao carry the incense burner to the sacrificial hall, and all the people in Sanjiang County began to walk into the sacrificial hall one after another with incense, inserted it in the incense altar, and bowed to the stone statue three times, praying for the protection of the four stone statues.

Jiang Pingchuan really didn't know how his ancestor still sheltered the people who worshiped them here, the ancestor died, the thousand feather cranes died, and although Yu Lao is not dead now, he has no ability to shelter them.

The only thing that couldn't be sure was the mysterious statue of a woman, and Jiang Pingchuan just glanced at the imprint that the statue had left on his mind.

After everyone had finished worshipping, Master Gao led everyone away, and the old scholar began to sweep the sacrificial hall little by little with the broom in his hand, and there was no dust in the sacrificial hall at all.

Jiang Pingchuan walked towards the sacrificial hall and looked at the old scholar with his back to him, at this moment in Jiang Pingchuan's eyes, the back of the old scholar was very unfamiliar, it didn't look like the back of the old scholar at all, Jiang Pingchuan stood quietly behind the old scholar and watched his every move.

"What to sweep," Jiang Pingchuan asked suspiciously.

"The Dust of the World"

The old scholar didn't look back at Jiang Pingchuan, but just said quietly, Jiang Pingchuan looked at the old scholar and bowed his hand slightly and turned to leave, since the other party didn't want him to know his identity, it didn't make sense for him to stay here.
