Chapter 17: The Land of Ancestor Worship
At that time, we will do a good job of the Wu family; of course, the big housekeeper Wu also thinks that time is in his favor, there is one thing he didn't tell Ouyang Hefeng, just a few months later, the stewards of the Storm City Stewardship will be transferred to a small world in large numbers for business missions, this is an annual example that happens every year, Yan Yihe didn't go last year, so he will definitely go this year, and then he will have a few months to make this blind guy.
Feeling that time was pressing, Ouyang Hefeng's cultivation became more and more diligent, and he could hardly leave the hall now, spending all his time on the cultivation of various exercises and magic... But as the so-called desire is fast but not reached, there is no shortcut to the way of soul cultivation, whether it is soul power cultivation, or the progress of the six uniques, or even the level of swordsmanship, everything is changing according to its own objective laws, and it is not easy to speed up by how much time you add and spend more energy... Half a month later, Ouyang Hefeng reluctantly ended this short retreat, which did not have much effect, but forced himself to be mentally nervous and psychologically unbalanced...
From Yan Yihe, Ouyang Hefeng got the list of the last few applications for the position of the Wind Howling Sect, there are not many people, and there is only one who has applied several times but has not been approved - a middle-aged casual cultivator named Poison Fang Soul Walker, this person should be a collaborator of the Wu family, but Ouyang Hefeng believes that this person is just a person who has been pushed to the forefront...
Ouyang Hefeng had already decided to do it, so he went all out.
First of all, he inquired about the whereabouts of the Demon Wind Soul Walker through the underground channels of Stormwind City, and after determining the person's appearance, he began to track the person himself. Ouyang Hefeng didn't choose to go to those so-called insiders who were used to doing this, firstly, he couldn't believe it, and secondly, the methods of these people were too rough.
The realm of the Demon Wind Soul Walker is not high, and the Qi cultivation is only complete, no matter how high it is, it will not be able to apply for the command of the Wind Howling Sect, this is a clear thing, if the Foundation Building Soul Walker applies, a fool will doubt his purpose of going to the Wind Howling Sect... After all, even if the soul walker who builds a foundation in Stormwind City is not a rarity, it is by no means a cabbage, and there are many places that are willing to give preferential treatment... This is also the reason why Ouyang and Feng dare to stare at him...
After four days, there was not much to gain. The life of the Demon Wind Soul Walker is quite regular.,In a small pill shop as a second shopkeeper.,Daily is mainly in the store.,And a few miles away from the residence between the turnover.,Occasionally go to the casino to go around.,The addiction is not deep.γγγ After following for three days, I found that he also had a small hobby, like to visit the night market of Taoist items in the scattered practice. . . Ouyang and Feng only observe from afar, never close to talk, although this person is inconspicuous, but he can hook up with a big family like the Wu family, either it is unfathomable, or the power behind it is amazing, no matter which one, Ouyang and Feng can only look up, fortunately, he has never wanted to defend these people...
Time passed slowly in this boring game of cat and mouse, the demon wind was very cautious, and Ouyang and Feng were also unlucky.
"Sir, for so long ... You see, are we going to take a different approach... If you wait like this, when will it be the end? . . He Meiyu was lying in the man's arms, one finger still drawing circles on the man's strong chest. She has three days off after working in Wu Mansion for a month, and of course young men and women who know the essence and taste will not let go of such a rare time to get along.
"What are you anxious about? But you can't wait for only a month, and what does the person who has been incognito in the book say for decades to get revenge?" Ouyang Hefeng stopped his big hand roaming on the woman's plump and white body, and gently patted his waist and buttocks, causing the woman to writhe like a water snake, "Don't worry, there are some things that can't be rushed... The first month to be able to gain a foothold in the house,It's a success.,As for the rest.,Hehe.,It's a storm when there's a real change.,I'm afraid you can't bear it.γγγ "It turned out that after separating from Wu Tiandrunk, He Meiyu's younger brother Zijing had Ouyang Hefeng and He Meiyu's plan except for a little thing.
Ouyang Hefeng was half comforted and half helpless, and he didn't have any special way to deal with the Wu family, the only opportunity to take advantage of it was the Wu family's peeping into the Wind Howling Sect, which was very unusual. The reason why he agreed to He Meiyu to enter the Wu Mansion was that he hoped to gain something in the Wu Mansion, but this thing couldn't be said to He Meiyu directly... οΌ
"You tell me again about the big and small things that have happened in the Wu Mansion recently, don't just care about what is related to Wu Qi... Just say it's up to me to decide if it's useful ... β
The woman was a little aggrieved, but under the strength of Ouyang Hefeng, she had to clean up her mood and recall as comprehensively as possible what she had seen and heard in the Wu Mansion this month, especially those she thought had nothing to do with revenge...
"Are you saying that there will be less than two months before the Wu Clan's Great Sacrifice?" Ouyang and Feng said absentmindedly. The Thang Long Continent attaches great importance to the ancestral sacrifice, and all families with a little strength are keen on it, a small sacrifice every three years, a big sacrifice in ten years, if it is a hundred years of sacrifice, its pomp and circumstance are extravagant regardless of the cost. Ouyang and Feng have come to this world, and they have not been through this kind of scene, there is an ancestral sacrifice of a mortal family in Tianjing Town, and Wanben Wuzong has also helped a senior uncle in the family sacrifice, but now he has arrived in Stormwind City, and a few days ago, he was entrusted by Yan Yihe to sell his strength in his elder sacrifice, which can be said to be more familiar.
"Yes, but it's not a big sacrifice, it's a small sacrifice... I heard in the back kitchen.,It seems that Wu doesn't care too much.γγγ I do it once every three years, and most of the things are ready-made, and I don't need to buy anything... He Meiyu recalled.
"Oh, is it at the family ancestral hall in the city?"
"No, I heard Chef Lin say that it seems that this small sacrifice is going to the ancestral hall of the family temple outside the city...... "The clan sacrifice is very particular, and the qualified families will build a family temple in the beautiful feng shui land outside the city, it seems that the strength of the Wu family is really not low."
Ouyang Hefeng nodded, this is normal...... The woman's information was lackluster, and Ouyang Hefeng naturally turned his attention to the woman's body...
Half a month passed, and everything was normal that made He Meiyu crazy, until she heard a news that seemed to be very important: Wu Tian, the housekeeper in the Wu Mansion, was going out to eat and drink tomorrow night.
Wu Tiandrunk is the person that Ouyang Hefeng asked her to pay attention to, it is normal for a man to go out to eat and drink, but tomorrow is the day of his birthday, the family said that they would have a feast at home to celebrate, but Steward Wu could not participate in something, of course the Hun family was not satisfied, although they did not dare to stop it, but the complaints behind it were inevitable, He Meiyu just heard it, thought about it, or found an excuse to go out of the house and pass the news to the seventh uncle...
It was already evening when Ouyang Hefeng got the news, but he attached great importance to the news, and immediately went to the place where Wu Tianzui was going to meet peopleβthe Drunken Red Pavilion, an ancient place for men to solve their physiological needs.
Of course, in fact, there are more places to serve in Stormwind City than ordinary mortal cities, the reason is very simple, the soul walkers are like the supermen of Ouyang Hefeng's previous life, this group has changed their physique after entering the Dao, seeing farther, jumping higher, having greater strength, etc., the improvement of physical fitness is all-round, it makes no sense that other places are stronger, but the most important part of a man has not changed...... In fact, of course, that place will be more powerful, just like Ouyang and Feng tossed He Meiyu every time, and they didn't stop for one or two hours.
The drunken Red Pavilion is an inferior place. In Stormwind City, what distinguishes the high and low places of Fengyue is not how magnificent the venue is, nor whether the prostitutes can play the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but whether the practitioners are soul walkers... The venue with prostitutes is the most popular place in Stormwind City. Like the Drunken Red Pavilion, it is just a place frequented by ordinary people and a few shy cultivators.
It was not the first time Ouyang Hefeng had come to the Drunken Red Pavilion, and what made him amused was that the reason why he was able to know such a remote and small place was because of Wu Tian's drunken Wu Butler. After meeting Steward Wu for the first time, Steward Wu actually made an appointment with him twice, one of which was this Drunken Red Pavilion, it seems that this kid has a soft spot for this place.
"Elder Yan, I don't know how many days will it take to return to this mission?" Ouyang Hefeng saluted Yan Yihe and asked unintentionally.
"You're well-informed, but I don't know which fast-mouthed guy it came from?" Yan Yihe quipped. At this time of year, the Shenyao Heaven Sect has a name called the Inner Sect Pavilion - when the magic fruit in the Inner Sect Pavilion is ripe, it needs a large number of people to enter the inner pavilion to take it back, and the Inner Sect Pavilion only allows soul walkers below the Jindan to enter the inner foundation, so cultivators like Yan Yihe can't escape the dispatch of the sect.
It's not a big secret, anyone who has been in Stormwind for a long time knows, "It's the usual practice, it's only between thirty and fifty days, that's it...... What's the matter, Xiaoyou?"
"It's nothing, it's just that I'm idle to eat and drink, but I don't have a talking partner, it's just boring......" Ouyang Hefeng said perfunctorily.
For Yan Yihe, thinking about it, Ouyang Hefeng did not trust him. All soul walkers are afraid of cause and effect, and no one wants to be involved in right and wrong without huge benefits. This is true for ordinary soul walkers, not to mention the powerful and powerful Divine Yao Sword Sect with high status. In the past few months, Ouyang Hefeng has secretly observed that the sword cultivators in the Stormwind City Management Office, even if they are not happy in the sect, are not as casual cultivators as Ouyang Hefeng can handle, so in the steward's room, Ouyang Hefeng is also a frequent visitor. But except for Yan Yihe, he didn't make any other friends, and the indifference between the soul walkers can be seen from this.
is Yan Yihe, if you want to say how deep the friendship is, it may not be. It's okay to eat and drink together, it's okay to talk about some soul cultivation secrets, and it's not too much to occasionally use Yan Yihe's momentum to seek some benefits for yourself, but if you have more requirements, you may not be able to get your wish, such as the Wu clan and the Soul Locking Sect, Ouyang and Feng have their own calculations in them, how could Yan Yihe be willing to meddle in such a big matter.
Ouyang and Feng intersected with Yan Yihe, and they also ate wine a few times, among which Ouyang and Feng invited a few times, and Yan Yihe also invited a few times, but they didn't take advantage of Ouyang Hefeng at all, so it can be seen that although this old man seems to be hot-hearted and has no scheming, the indifference and pride in his sword cultivation bones have never changed.
"But I don't know how many immortals in the steward's room are going, and if they go too much, the thugs in the city will also be troublesome......"
Yan Yihe laughed, "Xiaoyou is still bottomless in his heart, I'm afraid I'm worried that there was a thief trespassing on the Wind Howling Sect last time?...... But you are too careful, for thousands of years, no one dares not to take to heart what my Divine Glory Heaven Sect has said, especially in this Stormwind City...... As for the stewards going too much, this is indeed a fact, but every time at this time, there is an uncle in the door who can move to Stormwind City, hehe, all our deacons together, it is better to have a finger from the uncle, if there is really a situation that cannot be seen clearly, I am afraid that it will be very unlucky......"
Ouyang and Feng came to Fenghui Inn to find Uncle Seventh and took a lot of soul stones, and then his plan was to buy a large number of utensils, and just relying on his little soul stone was completely insufficient.
What would a low-level soul practitioner of the Qi Realm do if he wanted to make some trouble for a soul cultivator family or even a top-level sect? He didn't know what others would do, anyway, as a traverser, he really couldn't think of any other way besides those powerful explosive weapons in his previous life.
On September 15, there are still 53 days to go, and the Wu clan will worship their ancestors in the White Tiger Peak Tiger Peak Land more than 20 miles outside Storm City. The time is very clear, this is the ancestral system, and it is impossible for filial sons and grandchildren to change it. The location is also very clear, the Wu clan has never changed its ancestor worship for thousands of years.
Like the ancient times of the previous life, ancestor worship is an irreplaceable ritual in the family inheritance of the Thang Long Continent. Especially for the soul cultivation family, a small sacrifice a year, since it is possible in the family ancestral hall, a big sacrifice in ten years, but it must be selected in a place where the mountains and rivers are beautiful and the spirit is vast.
This year is not the year of the Wu family's big festival, and it was supposed to be held in the ancestral hall of the old house in the city, but it was unconventionally placed in the white tiger peak and tiger peak of the big festival, which means that it is not enough for outsiders. Of course, the Wu family's ancestor worship, when and where to sacrifice, are all Wu family's private affairs, and no one pays attention to these idle matters.
The White Tiger Peak is located in the west of the storm city more than 28 miles, the mountain is hundreds of zhang high, steep and upright, there is a ride out of the dust in the surrounding many mountains, its top Tiger Peak is majestic, it is a rare feng shui treasure land. Including the Wu clan, many of the Stormwind clans have built mansions here to facilitate the use of shrines.
