"Chapter 177: Departure to Sun Moon Lake"
At night, the voices were silent.
In the dimly lit room, Lin Beichen lay on the bed and looked at the beams in the room, falling into deep thought.
He didn't know what he was thinking, sometimes with a tangled look on his face, sometimes with a determined gaze.
"Whew..."
After a long time, Lin Beichen deeply exhaled a mouthful of turbid breath in his chest, and then sat up from the bed.
Gently pushing the door open, a quiet ray of moonlight reflected on his face.
Tonight's moon is obviously a little shaver than it was a few days ago, and it is no longer disc-shaped, but a bit like it has been bitten by something, and there is a gap.
Lin Beichen paced back and forth in the courtyard silently, as if he was thinking about something and couldn't make up his mind.
Suddenly, he stopped, his gaze slowly becoming determined, no longer in a wavering manner.
In the next second, purple stones appeared in the courtyard under his feet.
For a while, the purple light lingered in the courtyard, adding a bit of mystery to this quiet night.
This is a medium-grade spirit crystal!
There are thousands of them!
After gritting his teeth, Lin Beichen squatted down, picked up a medium-grade spirit crystal stacked on the ground, slowly walked to a corner of the courtyard, and gently placed it on the ground.
Immediately afterwards, he returned to the place where the medium-grade spirit crystal was stacked, picked up a spirit crystal again, and walked to another corner, which was also gently placed on the ground.
Cycle...
The position of these medium-grade spirit crystals seems to have a certain pattern, but it seems that there is no law.
Under the silent night sky, a figure was busy, tired and lay on the ground to rest, and after resting, he repeated the action just now.
It wasn't until dawn that the courtyard suddenly emitted a mysterious and mysterious aura, and then a strong purple light flashed away.
Lin Beichen was lying on the ground, gasping for breath, he didn't know what he was holding in his palm, and the smile on his face became even brighter.
……….
Time flies, and nine days have passed in the blink of an eye.
When the first red light from the east shone into the room where Lin Beichen was, Lin Beichen sat up from the bed suddenly.
A faint smile hung over his lips.
Tomorrow is the time of the month when the moonlight is at its weakest, and the moon will take on a sharp crescent shape, also known as the synodic moon.
Tomorrow's dawn is when the sun has just risen, but it has not yet appeared, and the moonlight emitted by the moon at this time is also the weakest time in this month.
There is no light of the sun, and the light of the moon is extremely weak, which is the weakest time for creatures who absorb the essence of the sun and moon.
So, they had to leave early tonight. Today, you have to prepare everything and arrange everything properly, and then you can go to the Sun Moon Lake.
After Lin Beichen stretched for a long time, he jumped up from the bed.
Dressing and putting on shoes, all in one go, very quickly.
"It's been so many days, and I haven't seen the Mu family master and them come to me, I think things should be developing according to the expected rhythm, there is nothing wrong, they should also have all the manpower ready."
Thinking of this, Lin Beichen immediately pushed open the door, walked out of the room, and walked leisurely towards the Mu family's meeting hall.
After walking for more than ten minutes, Lin Beichen finally came to the front of the conference hall.
I saw that the door was closed, as if there was no one.
Lin Beichen's brows couldn't help frowning slightly, and then he strode forward and gently pushed the door of the conference hall open.
Sure enough, the entire hall was silent, and there was no trace of a single person.
"Where did all this go?"
Lin Beichen's brows furrowed even more, and he couldn't help muttering in a low voice.
It stands to reason that today is about to set off for Sun and Moon Tan, and the high-level leaders of the Mu family should all be here to discuss relevant matters, how can the council room be empty.
With deep doubts, Lin Beichen withdrew from the chamber, closed the door gently, and then began to look for the courtyard one by one.
It's hard to imagine that the entire huge Mu family, with so many people, seemed to have completely disappeared overnight.
Lin Beichen went around all the way, and then returned to the small courtyard next to his courtyard, and stopped in this courtyard.
Then he walked in softly and gently pushed the door of the room in the courtyard open.
Undoubtedly, there was no one at all.
"It's strange, I seem to hear a sound from the yard next door last night, why can't I see anyone now."
Lin Beichen muttered, and then walked out of the courtyard.
Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he inadvertently saw a puff of smoke slowly rising from the sky.
Looking at the direction of the smoke rising, it should be in the location of the ancestral hall.
"Could it be that the ancestral hall is on fire, and they all ran to put out the fire?"
Lin Beichen was slightly stunned, and then thought of this possibility.
Lin Beichen patted his head, and after thinking about it, this possibility is getting bigger and bigger.
Immediately, Lin Beichen no longer hesitated, and hurriedly walked towards the location of the Mu family's ancestral hall.
More than 20 minutes later, Lin Beichen, who was in a hurry, finally arrived outside the Mu family ancestral hall.
Sure enough, here he saw a large number of family members, but the situation in the ancestral hall was not as hot as he thought.
Everyone who heard Lin Beichen's hurried footsteps turned around one after another.
"Uh..."
The eyes of hundreds of people looked at each other, which made Lin Beichen a little overwhelmed for a while.
"Here!"
At the front of the crowd, a familiar shout was heard.
Lin Beichen looked up and saw a beautiful figure waving at him, and beside her, there was also Mu Lingyun and some high-level officials of the Mu family who he had a relationship with.
"Miss Mu!"
Lin Beichen answered, and immediately walked forward in the eyes of everyone.
After greeting these high-level Mu family leaders one by one, he walked to Mu Hongyan's side.
"Why are you here?" Mu Hongyan asked curiously.
"When I woke up, I found that the entire Mu family was gone, I searched for a long time to find this place, I thought something happened to you, it scared me."
Lin Beichen smiled helplessly.
"Oh, look at my memory, I forgot about you." Mu Hongyan bit her red lips lightly, and a slight apology appeared on her face.
"It's fine."
Lin Beichen waved his hand casually, and then looked at the various items on the ground in front of him.
Horses, cows, sheep, pigs, dogs, chickens, and many fruit snacks are neatly arranged on the ground in front of them.
Further on, there is a huge bronze tripod surrounded by several incense candles the size of fists.
The flame rises in the ding, endlessly.
Lin Beichen was a little curious about this meeting, and immediately patted Mu Hongya's fragrant shoulder, leaned next to Mu Hongyan, and asked in a low voice, "Are you here...?" ”
"We're worshipping our ancestors, can't you see it?" Mu Hongyan leaned close to Lin Beichen's ear and said in a low voice.
Just when Lin Beichen wanted to ask something, he was interrupted by Mu Hongyan.
"Shhhh
When Lin Beichen heard this, he looked up and looked ahead.
Sure enough, as Mu Hongya said, Mu Lingyun was walking slowly forward at this moment, bypassing the bronze tripod, stepping on the stairs step by step, and ascending to a high place.
There, there are tablets that Lin Beichen can't count.
Everyone looked solemn, and even Mu Hongyan, who had always been hippie and smiling, was restrained at this moment.
Then Mu Lingyun bowed deeply towards these tablets, and everyone also bowed in unison.
For a while, Lin Beichen was left alone without bowing, and the feeling of standing out from the crowd immediately appeared.
"What are you doing, bow quickly."
Mu Hongyan hurriedly pulled the corner of Lin Beichen's clothes and urged.
"Huh? Do I want it too? ”
Lin Beichen looked embarrassed, but he still obeyed Mu Hongyan's urging and pretended to bow down.
The deceased is great, and the deceased is great.
Lin Beichen kept hypnotizing himself in his heart.
Come to a seven-star mound, and recognize people as ancestors, which is also too much of a loss.
However, for the sake of Mu Hongya's face, he reluctantly accepted it.
Half an hour later, the tedious ritual finally ended, and everyone dispersed in an orderly manner.
Under the command of Mu Lingyun, dozens of family members respectfully moved these tablets away from the scene.
"What's wrong with your Mu family today? Why do you worship your ancestors? Lin Beichen quietly pulled the corner of Mu Hongya's clothes and asked curiously.
"After worshipping the ancestors, bring these tablets with you." Mu Hongyan glanced at Lin Beichen, and then continued: "Could it be that these ancestors' spiritual positions, you don't hold a ceremony, just pack them into the baggage and take them away?" Then these ancestors are not allowed to scold my father to death in the sky. ”
"Uh..."
Mu Hongyan's words made Lin Beichen unable to refute for a while, so he could only scratch his head awkwardly and smile bitterly.
Then he remembered something, and hurriedly asked: "By the way, about going to Sun Moon Lake, has the head of the Mu family prepared all the manpower?" ”
"I heard from my dad that it's all ready." Mu Hongyan tilted her head, thought for a while, and responded.
"What about the man? Didn't I say a thousand people? Now I don't even see a single hair..."Lin Beichen looked slightly stunned, and then asked with some doubts.
"Uh... Well, you still have to ask my father, I don't know, he is here, you ask him to go. Mu Hongyan raised her hand and pointed ahead.
When Lin Beichen heard this, he looked in the direction of Mu Hongya's finger, and saw that Mu Lingyun had already explained the follow-up and was walking towards them.
"Master Mu!"
Lin Beichen waved his hand and said hello.
In the blink of an eye, Mu Lingyun walked up to the two of them.
"Lin Gongzi, why are you here? I'm thinking I'll go to you after I've got everything done here. Mu Lingyun responded with a smile.
It is not difficult to see that he is in a very good mood today.
But it's no wonder that anyone who is about to have a wish will laugh so happily.
"Master Mu, how is the matter with that manpower?" Lin Beichen raised his eyebrows slightly, and then asked.
"It's all ready, these people will come to our Mu family to report at noon, and our Mu family will let them have a full meal at that time, and then we will set off immediately." Mu Lingyun said everything about his plan.
"Okay."
Lin Beichen nodded lightly, and he had no objection to Mu Lingyun's arrangement.
"By the way, there are a total of thirty-one people in our Mu family who are willing to leave the Seven Star Tomb, all of them are members of our Mu family, and these family members are basically unwilling to leave. When I have finished eating, I will give them some taels of silver and let them go home and marry a daughter-in-law. ”
"And among the 1,000 people who signed up, most of them were reluctant to leave, only a few people were willing, plus the people from our Mu family, a total of forty people."
Mu Lingyun said, his face was also filled with uncontrollable joy.
"It's okay, it's up to you to leave or not, it's not good to force them." Lin Beichen replied casually.
People have their own aspirations, these people are not willing to go out, he will not force them, as long as he can gather enough of the thousand people he wants, and he can allow him to completely arrange the magic circle, he doesn't care much about the fate of these people.
"Okay, then let's go and rest in the living room first, and when these people come at noon, we'll have dinner and set off immediately."
As he spoke, Mu Lingyun pulled Lin Beichen and walked forward, and Mu Hongyan also followed closely with the two of them, and the three of them left the ancestral hall together.
Time passed quickly, and after a few people drank a few teas and chatted for a while about the Cloud Shadow Continent, it was already noon.
When one of the family members came to announce that the thousand had arrived and that the feast could now begin, the men stopped talking.
"Let's go, let's go on the road together after dinner."
Mu Lingyun stood up from his chair and showed an extremely excited look.
The last wishes of so many generations of ancestors will become a reality in his hands today, and in the future genealogy, there will definitely be a stroke of his heavy ink.
A different kind of brilliance flashed in Lin Beichen's eyes, and then he couldn't help but secretly curse a few words in his heart.
Look at the people who lock them up, they are about to get sick.
A wide square with hundreds of tables filled with a variety of delicious dishes.
The crowd was bustling, so lively.
An hour later, the thousands of people were full of food and drink.
I saw that Mu Lingyun stood up from Lin Beichen's side and shouted loudly: "Everyone, thank you for helping my Mu family today, I, Mu Lingyun, thank you here, now, let's go together!" ”
"Good!"
Everyone stood up and echoed in unison.
It can be seen that the Mu family's reputation in the Seven Star Tomb is quite good on weekdays.
Very few people have a hatred of the rich against them.
