At midnight, the sun shone down from the east and fell on the hills. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The woods are lush and green, and a winding stone staircase winds through the forest, spiraling upwards, and at the end of the stone steps is a solemn building.

Red tiles and yellow walls, eaves flying, there is the ancestral temple of the Gu family.

Beneath the hill is a blue-gray courtyard with white paint on the walls and green tiles on the roof.

Gu Xiaozhao walked slowly along the gravel path, and an old servant led the way in front of him.

Tomorrow, Gu Xiaozhao will enter the ancestral hall of the Gu family, and under the attention of the people in each room, the patriarch of the ancestral hall will come forward and include it in the genealogy of the Gu family, leave his name in the ancestral hall, and officially recognize the ancestors and return to the ancestors.

Before that, he had to burn incense and bathe in the house at the bottom of the mountain, and cultivate his mind in the ashram.

On the second day, he will go up the mountain alone along the winding mountain path and enter the ancestral shrine.

There isn't much red tape in this world, however, the necessary rituals are needed.

Through this ritual, the children of the family can have a greater sense of identification with the family.

Tomorrow, only Gu Xiaozhao will recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors, and there will be no other ceremonies to be held, and the entire mansion will be relatively deserted. Along the way, there was no one in sight, only the old servant walked slowly in front of him with his back on his back.

"Hoo ......"

The old servant was old, and it was difficult to walk, and it was even more difficult to breathe, and the sound of breathing was like a bellows pulled by a blacksmith's shop, whirring......

After a while, the two came to a small courtyard.

"Little master, it's ......"

The old servant turned around and said in a trembling voice.

Gu Xiaozhao stood in front of the small courtyard, the sunlight fell behind him, stretching his shadow obliquely, and falling on the dilapidated wooden door with some spots, the courtyard wall was not high, and he wanted to see the inside, but he couldn't.

"Little master, this is here, there is a rune array inside, usually, the rune array is closed, no idlers enter, you must have a token to enter and exit......"

As the words fell, the old servant grinned toothlessly and smiled.

With that, he took out a wooden token from his bosom and placed it in a depression on the side of the courtyard door.

After the token was lowered, a golden light rippled over the small courtyard, and runes shone in the light.

"Babbling ......"

The closed courtyard door is automatically windless and opens to both sides.

"Young Master, please!"

Gu Xiaozhao looked at the courtyard in silence, and after a while, he opened his legs, stepped through the courtyard gate, and walked into the courtyard.

The old servant took back the token and followed him into the courtyard.

After the token was put away, the rune array was opened, and the golden light floating above his head slowly dispersed and disappeared.

It looks like an ordinary courtyard.

Gu Xiaozhao ran to prove the truth, but he saw that the aura fell and rose very regularly, as if he was following some invisible law, running along some trajectory, over and over again, endlessly.

This is a very simple rune.

A rune array that runs on runes.

The courtyard is a world of its own, and there is a wind blowing, even if no one cleans it, there is not a trace of dust.

"Little young master, this incense burning and bathing ceremony must be assisted by the old man, and the young master is invited to come with the old man......"

The old servant spoke, and then led Gu Xiaozhao to a thatched hall.

Yes, the whole courtyard was empty, and the only building in the courtyard was the thatched cottage in the center.

The thatched hall has only four pillars, no four walls, and a layer of gray thatch is laid on the top of the head.

Thatch is very common and can be found everywhere.

In the thatched hall, there are no other furnishings, no furniture such as chairs and benches, and a thatched futon is placed in the middle, nothing more.

"Young Master, please take a seat......"

The old servant led Gu Xiaozhao into the grass hall and asked him to sit down on the futon, and then, standing outside the grass hall, he took out four pieces of rune paper from his arms and pasted them on the four wooden pillars.

At this time, a fragrance wafted in the courtyard.

The so-called incense bath is not the kind on earth, lighting sandalwood, putting a wooden barrel filled with water, and then, smelling the fragrance, stripping naked into the wooden barrel, symbolically washing the body.

The incense bathing in this world is strange.

The aroma comes from the talisman array, which directly acts on the divine soul, and does not pass through the olfactory organs, and has the effect of pure divine thoughts and making people not have distracting thoughts.

Bathing is not a bath, but bathing in the aura, enjoying the washing of the rain of aura, meditating and practicing.

When the old servant pasted the talisman paper on the four wooden pillars, it didn't take long for the aura to fall from the top of his head, pouring on Gu Xiaozhao's body like raindrops, enveloping his whole body in a dense heaven and earth aura.

Gu Xiaozhao sat down cross-legged and took a deep breath.

This level of aura is okay, it is similar to the stone tablet world, but compared with the aura rain created by Xiao Ling'er, the density is about the same, and the degree of purity is far worse.

The aura rain created by Xiao Ling'er was tailor-made for Gu Xiaozhao, and it was the most suitable aura for him.

The aura rain created by this rune array is popular, and Gu Xiaozhao's physical attributes are not very consistent with it.

Looking at Gu Xiaozhao sitting upright in the cottage, the old servant's face was different.

You know, if you were someone else, most of them would have an ecstatic expression at this time.

This is true even for the well-informed son-in-law.

However, Gu Xiaozhao's performance was very calm, which was inevitably surprising.

Within the Gu family, incense and bathing is a kind of welfare, a benefit that can only be obtained if you have made great contributions to the family. Gu Xiaozhao has not made an inch, but he can get this benefit, but it is just a rule.

The rules before recognizing ancestors and returning to their ancestors.

Except for this time, if you want to continue to enjoy it, you must make great contributions to the family, otherwise, you can only wait until the ancestor worship meeting once every ten years.

"Little master, this aura is not easy to come by, there is only a stick of incense, and please ask the young master to meditate and run the exercises, among them, there must be wonderful, after the ceremony, when you get a great gain......"

The old servant said loudly outside the cottage.

Gu Xiaozhao nodded, closed his eyes, turned his thoughts, and ran the exercises, inhaling the spiritual energy rain that fell from the top of his head into his body without missing a single bit, and converting it into true qi.

At that moment, it was as if a long whale was sucking water, and no trace of aura could escape.

The discoloration in the old servant's eyes is even deeper!

What kind of exercise is this?

Even if the Gu family is the most domineering Great Bright Decision, it is impossible to absorb all the spiritual energy without leakage, isn't this nameless technique cultivated by Gu Xiaozhao even more powerful than the Great Bright Decision?

No wonder, at such a young age, he dared to practice both martial arts.

Looking at this situation, this kid is not only a talisman master, but even has even stepped into the middle level of the Qi Refining Realm, and his cultivation is very fast!

It's just that the faster you practice, the faster you die!

The old servant grinned and smiled slightly.

The next moment, his rickety back became straight, the white hair on his head turned black inch by inch, the wrinkles disappeared in an instant, and his facial features also changed, which were completely different from before.

In an instant, a different person!
