Chapter 225: Traveling in the Sea (30) - First entry into the ancestral hall
Because he was going to go to the ancestral temple to worship in a while, so that his son would recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors, so Huo Zhan temporarily held back his anxious ecstasy and explained that his son should be restless.
"Yan'er, really don't need your father to ask that Mo Xiaodao friend personally?" Huo Zhan felt that it would be more prudent to ask for it himself, for the sake of Yu'er's body, he was willing to try whatever he wanted to do now.
"Father, there's really no need. ”
"Sister Youran and I are like brothers, and we won't pay attention to so much hypocrisy between us. She and my group of friends share the same traits, and never like to pay attention to red tape. ”
"After the ancestor worship, I told her immediately. By the way, father, can they go over and watch the ceremony together after the ancestor worship ceremony?"
"Why not, don't they have a token in their hands that I asked Huo Yan to bring over? That token is a status symbol that represents the most honored guest of our Fire Mantis clan, and it is okay to walk anywhere on the island. ”
"Oh, I see...... Later, I sent a message to invite them to come over and watch the ceremony, and I asked her ...... as soon as it was over."
After saying goodbye to Mama Jin and promising her to come over later, the father and son saw that the time should be about the same, so the two rushed to the direction of the ancestral hall together.
Located in the southwest of the island, the ancestral hall is a place used by the people of the Fire Mantis clan to worship and worship their ancestors. Looking at the solemn buildings in front of him, the delicate and elegant carvings, and the dense crowd that had slowly gathered and waited inside and outside the main hall to watch the ceremony, Huo Yan only felt that his whole body tensed up instantly, and a feeling called nervousness slowly surged into his heart.
Then swept to the dozen or so crane-haired old men wearing jade crowns and dark red auspicious robes in the main hall, and the admiring, surprised, or disdainful gazes cast when they saw themselves, Huoyan's heart became a little heavier. It's just that he didn't show any discoloration on his face, and he still calmly followed his father into the main hall, and came to the front of the group of old men for more than ten steps.
"Great Elder, it's rare for you to come here in person today, I can't thank you enough!" This is Huo Zhan bowed respectfully to an old man led by him.
"Yan'er, this is the great elder of our Fire Mands clan, and I have come out of the customs today to witness your homecoming ceremony for you. Hurry up and thank the Great Elder. Huo Zhan tugged at Huoyan's sleeve and motioned for him to hurry up and pay a respect.
Seeing this, Huo Yan also quickly stepped forward and bowed respectfully to the ground, "Boy, Huo Yan has seen the Great Elder!"
But before the Great Elder could speak, he heard a voice next to him, and the words were full of ridicule and contempt, "Don't be so anxious to recognize this and that, without bloodline verification, I don't know if it will be a cat or a dog who came from to recognize relatives!"
It's really polite to say this, but it can be regarded as a direct slap in the face. Moreover, the volume of his speech was obviously deliberately raised, but it caused an uproar inside and outside the hall.
"Third brother, if you can't speak, roll the calf for me!" The Great Elder at the head looked kind and amiable, but the words he said were domineering.
The third elder was reprimanded and wanted to say a few more words, but finally retreated to the side in a gloomy manner under the stern gaze of the great elder.
Huo Yan was originally wary of this unfamiliar environment, but now he felt really inexplicable when he was so suddenly hostile.
In fact, he doesn't care at all whether he is a royal family or not, he just wants to recognize his parents and be able to be by his parents' side.
Who would have thought that now as soon as he came up, people were sarcastically saying that he wanted to climb high branches, so his sense of belonging to the Fire Mantis clan in his heart was a little weaker.
But that's fine, because such a break has made the tension in his mind that he just gave birth to subside a little. It is precisely this reason that it is more difficult for people to let go of what they care about when they are concerned, but when you don't care, you can face it calmly.
The Great Elder scolded the third child who he didn't look down on on weekdays, wasn't it because he was a relative of the Yan Concubine clan who was a little far away and couldn't be far away?
It's really mud that can't hold up the wall!
Taking advantage of this moment, he carefully looked at the son of the real cousin of the boy who was said to be the fire war, the poor little guy who was stolen and thrown away as soon as he was born.
Watching him go from being a little cramped when he first came in, to being inexplicably rushed by the third child, this little guy was able to stay calm and sober, without the kind of hillbilly taste that can't be on the stage, and not as arrogant and frivolous as the guy who has been named the prince from Concubine Yan......
From this point of view, it is really still an orthodox bloodline, and it is not comparable to any mainland goods!
However, it's a pity that this little guy was found too late, otherwise how could it be the turn of the concubine from Concubine Yan to be named the prince!(Everyone else didn't know about the earth-shattering crime committed by Concubine Yan, and was only briefly told to find the queen's concubine, and today was specially carried out to recognize the ancestors and return to the ancestors)
The Great Elder stroked his long silver-white beard with rare relief, and silently gave the newcomer a thumbs up.
The more he looked at Huoyan, the more he liked it, so he opened his mouth and comforted, "Little guy, don't worry about him. Just do what you have to do!"
"I'm free to come to my grandfather's place for tea!"
The people around couldn't help but be surprised when they heard this, when did the Great Elder still have time to take care of these juniors? and took the initiative to ask him to come over to drink tea, this is a preferential treatment that has not been seen in 800 years!
Huo Zhan laughed, patted his son on the shoulder who was still stunned and urged, "Yan'er, thank you grandpa yet!"
Huo Yan hurriedly stepped forward and bowed, "Thank you, Grandpa!"
The Great Elder smiled and nodded, "Good, good, good!"
"Let's start the ritual now, little one!"
"I also want to see, little guy, if you have inherited the orthodox bloodline of our royal family!"
Huo Yan straightened up a little bewildered. Looking at the encouraging eyes of the Great Elder and his father, as well as the colorful eyes of the people around him, he was still a little uncertain in his heart. I am worried about whether I can successfully recognize my parents, and I am worried that even if I recognize my parents, the bloodline I inherited is not pure enough, which makes my parents ashamed...
For a moment, all kinds of thoughts were chaotic, and the uneasiness in my heart deepened a little.
But at this moment, in the disturbing crowd, the eager gazes cast by Youran, Guo Tiancheng, and Xiao Moling made Huo Yan instantly seem to have found the backbone. They seemed to be able to understand Huoyan's chaotic mood now, so they came out to give their friends a hot blessing.
A warm current gushed out from the bottom of his heart, and in an instant, the uneasy emotions of Huo Yan calmed down again. He replied in a calm and self-contained voice, "Yes, Grandpa, Huo Yan also wants to see if he has disgraced my lineage!"
