Chapter 9: The Ancestral Hall Is Burned

The carriage was in full swing.

Holding Xiaoyou, who was pale, Tong Tianyang couldn't help but think a little too much.

What kind of world is this?

What would be his fate without the Ascension panel!

There was silence inside and outside the car, the speeding carriage, the bumpy carriage was uncomfortable, and after several times to suppress the urge to vomit, the carriage finally stopped.

As soon as Tong Tianyang got out of the car, the whole person was stunned by the scene in front of him, the ancestral hall was blazing with fire and smoke, the whole village was kneeling or sitting, some old people knelt on the ground and cried bitterly, and some even slapped themselves.

The ancestral hall is gone, the tablet of the ancestor is burned, and the third uncle stands in front of the ruins of the ancestral hall as if his soul has been drawn, like a sculpture.

"Heavenly raising!"

Shi Tianze looked at Tong Tianyang, who got out of the car, and didn't know what to say for a while.

The ancestral hall, an important place for the family, is of great significance, and the burning of the ancestral hall has a far more serious impact on the clan than the cracking of the statue of the city god temple.

"Big brother, go back first, I'll take care of my family's affairs!"

shook his head, there is a third uncle at home, even if the third uncle is not there, it is useless for Shi Tianze, an outsider, to stay.

"Okay, contact me directly if you have anything, I'll go back first!"

Shi Tianze also found out, he couldn't help with this matter, and the carriage turned around and walked along the county road.

"Xiaoyou, you go back first, prepare the tea and dinner, what a big thing happens, the clan meeting will definitely start in a while!" patted Xiaoyou on the shoulder, Tong Tianyang couldn't help but shrug his shoulders and strode towards the ancestral hall.

Tongjia Village is not big, they all know each other, and when they saw Tong Tianyang coming, the clansmen who wanted to cry without tears all nodded stiffly.

"Third uncle, I'm back!"

walked all the way to the third uncle's side and said lightly.

"It's good to come back, what happened in the city, I also know, if it wasn't for the accident in the ancestral hall, I would have arranged for someone to pick you up!" The third uncle turned his head, far less depressed than Tong Tianyang thought, and there were a lot of things hidden in his calm expression.

"You are the person who speaks at home, you need to convene the clan meeting, for the time being, it will be set after dinner, I have something to tell you before, and I will come to my house to talk after the arrangement"

"Got it!"

Tong Tianyang himself respected the third uncle very much, and later knew that the third uncle's legendary past, and the idea he made, Tong Tianyang naturally had to implement it well, and it was not a good thing for a layman to manage an insider.

Bringing the housekeeper of the Tong family and instructing the affairs of the clan association, Tong Tianyang glanced at the ancestral hall that was still burning, and walked towards the third uncle's house.

The third uncle has no heirs, and there is a legendary past, I thought that such a person's house would be different, but I didn't want to be clean, only a sword hanging on the north wall, and it was difficult for the sword to hide in the front of the Ming Hall.

When he entered the door, the third uncle was already sitting at the table, and when he saw Tong Tianyang coming in, he pointed to the table in front of him and said, "There are people in the whole village, either go out to be officials, or on the way to seek officials, there are more than 100 people in the village, half of them are old people and children, and there are many young girls, we stay at home, we must keep this foundation!"

"Your father asked you to come back, just to let you learn how to manage this family well, manage the family well, and go out to be an official in the future to manage the people under your rule, to put it bluntly, he is still paving the way for your official career!"

People are old and refined, and the third uncle said that the reason why Tong Tianyang returned to the village, these generations of Tong family members have to go through this step before they go out to be officials, and the same is true before the third uncle went to Beijing to take the exam.

"And this is also the reason why I don't agree with your cultivation, I'm afraid it will affect your future path, but now you can also see that we are not very peaceful here, when the ancestral hall was burned, I was inside, first the ancestral tablet fell, and then it caught fire for no reason, the time should be the same as the time when the statue of the city god temple cracked, this is the ancestor is giving us a warning!"

The third uncle is very calm, he stays in the village but knows clearly about the City God Temple, and the way to spread this information is not simple.

"But why, just because our ancestral hall was burned, many villages along the way are fine?"

Tong Tianyang believes the words of the third uncle, but the question is, why didn't other people's homes burn?

"Minsanshi, Wujue, Seven Kings and Nine, our Tong family is a scholar family, and we can worship five generations upward, and Shukai Ancestor is also in it, so our ancestral hall is better than other people's spiritual benefits!" the third uncle explained lightly.

There are demons and monsters in this world, and the ancestors bless this kind of thing can naturally have it, how can the third uncle believe it, what should I do next?

"Third uncle, you actually asked me to meet you before the clan meeting, obviously you already have an idea, say it, and the little nephew will definitely cooperate with you!"

"Four things!"

"First, accumulate grain and store water, if there is food at home, the whole village will not worry, at least half of the savings must be taken out to buy grain!"

"I'll let the housekeeper do it immediately, collect grain at a high price, and collect as much as you want!"

"Second, military training. Demons are not terrible, what is terrible is people's hearts, when outsiders don't eat or drink, when they see us eating and drinking, they will rob us, so the young and strong people of the whole village must be organized, and I will train the soldiers!"

The third uncle's words are the same as what Brother Shi said, this one must be on the line, and he nodded and motioned for the third uncle to continue.

"Three, build a car. No one knows what direction it will develop next, so we must be prepared to flee from Pingfeng County and Xiangjiang, all of them are old and weak, women and children, and it is impossible to walk with their feet on this road, so we must have a car and prepare as many cattle and horses as possible!"

"There is a blacksmith at home, this matter will be arranged in a moment!"

This should be the so-called old plan, the method is very simple, but it is very practical, and the hands have been taken into account, no wonder when he was in the capital before, his father was so relieved about the things in the village, and the feelings were that the third uncle was there.

"The last thing is you!" Saying the last thing, the third uncle pointed directly at Tong Tianyang, "I don't know what your situation is, in three days, you have actually been able to practice internal breath, maybe you have talent yourself, or maybe it is the blessing of your ancestors." ”

"The things hidden in the inner breath and the body, Brother Shi is so powerful, but he didn't notice it, the third uncle can find out, doesn't it mean that the third uncle is even more powerful than Shi Tianze!"

Hearing this, Tong Tianyang couldn't help but be surprised, and secretly guessed in his heart, just nodded blindly.

The third uncle obviously didn't care what he was thinking, and continued, "If it was a peaceful and prosperous world, I would never take the initiative to tell you, now that the troubled times are coming, reading is no longer the best way out." If you want to protect yourself and your family, you can only rely on the power in your own hands. If you are willing to give up your fame and be willing to endure the hardships of cultivation, I can teach you to cultivate, and I just hope that you can be like me in the future and pay a little bit of strength for this family!"

"I do!"

The fool was unwilling, he didn't think about studying himself, and immediately accepted it.

"In that case, you will come to my room after the clan meeting is over, and I will explain the way of cultivation to you at that time, and strive to cultivate something in the next month, so as to be complete!" The third uncle looked at his nephew with an excited face, and he didn't know what to say.

Everyone is good at cultivating, but unexpectedly, the path of cultivation is comparable to the path of Dengshu, ten thousand people compete for one person to ascend to the gate of heaven, and the remaining nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine can only spend the rest of their lives in failure, if it is not for the current chaotic situation, he really does not want to bring his nephew into this road, and it is true that he spends his life in peace.
