The Chen Clan Ancestral Hall has a very typical three-in-a-mansion style layout.
The first entrance is the main entrance, the second entrance is the ancestral hall where ancestors' spiritual tablets are enshrined and important matters are discussed, and the third entrance is the backyard where servants of the tribe can rest.
The three people from Jin'an walked calmly through the door wall engraved with the word "Fu Lu" and safely blocked the ancestral hall. However, they found that the opera troupe who had been singing here before was missing.
Not only was the troupe missing, even the ancestral hall, which was originally brightly lit, was now pitch black, with all the lights extinguished.
This opening gave everyone a very ominous feeling.
"Girl in red, Aping, did you sense anything near here?" But what Jin An got was that both of them shook their heads.
The three of them carefully approached the ancestral hall. The ancestral hall, with all the lights turned out, was no longer bright and clear. Instead, it was dark. Not even the slightest human voice could be heard. The clan elders and several young disciples of the Chen family who had been staying in the ancestral hall had all disappeared.
.
Just when A Ping planned to be the pioneer, the first to step into the ancestral hall, and take the initiative to check whether there was any danger for Jin An, Jin An raised his hand to stop A Ping.
A Ping looked back at Jin An in confusion.
But he found that the other party was looking down at his feet.
He also subconsciously lowered his head and looked at his feet.
At their feet was the threshold of the ancestral hall. At this time, there were a few more cracks on the threshold of the ancestral hall. Some of the cracks were so large that they even opened up.
If the threshold of the ancestral hall they saw when they first arrived was a hidden danger, then it is in danger now.
One before the other and one after the other are two completely different environments.
"Taoist Master Jin'an, this is..." A Ping's eyes narrowed.
At this time, Jin An squatted down and raised his finger to touch the steps, but he didn't expect it!
As soon as the yang energy in a living person touches the threshold, it is like boiling oil poured into cold water. The vicious yin energy bursts out from the fingertips, and the fingers are violently flicked away like an electric shock. This is the reaction of the amulet on the body.
"What a fierce yin energy!" Jin An was surprised.
Only then did Aping notice that what Jin An was concerned about was not the new cracks on the threshold, but the few shallow marks of dust on the outside of the threshold. Just now, his fingertips touched these shallow marks, which directly caused the
The amulet protects the body.
"There is a folk saying that people generally build high thresholds for three purposes. One is to prevent floods in the Jiangnan area where there is abundant rain; the other is to prevent the dead in the mourning hall from pretending to be corpses and running out of the mourning hall to harm others;
It is used to prevent zombies from jumping out of the mass graves in the deep mountains and forests to injure people and suck people's essence and blood to practice." Jin An raised his hand and tried again, but he still felt like an electric shock, and the yin energy was very fierce.
"These marks look like a jumping corpse trying to enter the ancestral hall, but was blocked by the threshold..."
"It seems that this is the reason why there are so many cracks and gaps in the threshold suddenly..."
Jin An guessed that the shallow marks on the threshold were the traces of blood arrows left when the toes of jumping corpses repeatedly hit the threshold. The traces of the toes alone still left such a vicious and sinister air, which made the already unknown feeling
It got a little heavier.
After listening to Jin An's analysis, the girl in red umbrella jumped up to a nearby high wall and soon brought back bad news. The main entrance of Chen's Ancestral Hall, which was originally sealed by iron, was opened by someone from the inside.
If there's anything outside, you can just drive right in now.
Although the blood coffins surrounding the ancestral hall remained intact, this did not guarantee whether the contents of the blood coffins had entered the ancestral hall.
Although I have been mentally prepared and knew that changes had occurred in this ancestral hall, this series of bad news is really pressing and makes people feel a little heavy.
"Forget it, when things come to an end, it is no longer possible to retreat, and now we have no way to retreat. Now we can only come with troops to push the enemy to the weir, continue to act according to the original plan, let us dismantle the ancestral hall and see
Look, what kind of truth is buried under this ancestral hall!"
Jin An is not the kind of person who is indecisive and hesitant when encountering problems. At critical moments, he is so ruthless that even the mountain god dares to fight head-on. He has never experienced any scene, so how can he be afraid of this kind of scene? Besides,
, he still has two sticks of evil deeds incense at the bottom of the box to protect his life. He lit the evil deeds incense, and by then it’s not necessarily who is afraid of whom!
Next, Jin An took out the Fifteen Spirit Card and directly called out Fifteen, who was strong and suitable for hard work. He told Fifteen not to worry about anything and opened the floor of the ancestral hall for him. He wanted to see this no matter what he said today.
What secrets are hidden under the ancestral hall?
roar!
What Fifteen likes most is violent destruction. He raised the heavy iron ax in his hand and smashed the ax with both hands. The ground shook, rocks exploded, earth and rocks flew in the ancestral hall, and the Chen family's ancestor tokens fell messily.
, walls, stone pillars, and beams could not withstand the vibration and cracked one after another, and a large amount of dust and tiles fell from the top of their heads.
boom!
boom!
Boom!
The ground that was originally sealed by blue bricks and stones was violently smashed by the 15th and 15th innate strange strength. The explosion pit expanded rapidly, and the huge concussive force was transmitted into the ground, damaging the foundation, pillars, and walls of the ancestral hall.
It was crumbling, as if it was about to collapse at any moment, turning into the collapsed ruins of the Yin Tower they saw outside a few days ago.
But Fifteen, who had been ordered by Jin'an, no matter what the outside world was like, it just wanted to vent violently, and kept destroying with an ax in both hands.
Boom!
As the ground suddenly sank, a black hole collapsed downwards. Jin An quickly shouted out Fifteen who wanted to destroy it again.
Fifteen, whose mind was full of violence, had not yet had enough of venting, so he raised his ax in his hand and shouted at Jin An's dissatisfied corpse. However, when he looked at the red umbrella girl standing next to Jin An with a pricking calm gaze, Shi Fifteen
Wucai's roar stopped abruptly in the middle of his roar: "Roar...chirp."
In an instant, it changed from a big and powerful cat to the sound of a weak kitten.
Looking at Fifteen who instantly became well-behaved, Jin An and Aping were both dumbfounded. Jin An raised his hand and patted Fifteen's huge, bloated arm covered with liposarcoma: "Thank you Fifteen."
He did not alienate or dislike Fifteen because of his ugly appearance.
Fifteen nodded meekly.
Who would have thought that Shi Fifteen, who is so docile and lovely now, would almost die under its iron ax when Jin An was at the inn not long ago.
Next, several people gathered around the hole made by Shi Shi and began to clean up some rubble and bricks. When the dust cleared, everyone saw that there was indeed another world under the ancestral hall. There was an underground world like a cellar, and underground
The lights are shining, but they are not pitch black.
"Taoist Jin An's predictions are magical. You guessed it right again, Taoist Jin An... No, you guessed it right again, Taoist Jin An!" Jin An was more shocked, and A Ping had become accustomed to it.
, said very calmly.
This cellar was not suitable for Fifteen to stretch out his body. After Jin An left Fifteen on the ground to take care of the situation, the three of them jumped underground through the hole.
At this time, even the Gray Immortal came out of his backpack and jumped on Jin An's shoulder to watch the excitement, looking around curiously with his bright eyes.
But when the three people and one mouse saw clearly the environment in the cellar, their expressions changed. There was a huge altar, and human bone lanterns were hung one after another on the four walls surrounding the altar.
Use human bones as the lantern skeleton.
Human corpses are used to refine corpse oil.
Using corpse oil as wax to light a sky lantern on a person is an extremely cruel method. Even after death, the person will never be reincarnated and will be trapped in despair forever.
A human bone lantern.
Two human bone lanterns.
…
Just at a glance, there are more than ten human bone lanterns here.
"Something worse than an animal!"
"Why on earth do these demons in human skin do this!"
A Ping's heartbeat was heavy. At this moment, he was too angry and suffered from angina pectoris again. He tightly covered his exposed heart with one hand, but it still could not relieve the pain caused by angina pectoris.
Too many unfortunate things have happened to him, so he can empathize with them the most, and he hates evil the most, and cannot bear to see the ugliness and evil in the world.
Whenever he saw these tragic experiences happening to people in the world, he would always think back to the most painful experience that night.
Even Jin An's face was not good-looking either. He gritted his teeth and cursed: "The altar here should be used for rituals. People are made into human bone lanterns, and corpses are refined into corpse oil to light sky lanterns. This
It should be a blood donation. It seems that these bastards in the Chen family have made their fortunes and fortunes for several generations, not by doing it in a proper way, but by sacrificing blood to others and taking away their luck through the guidance of an expert.
In exchange for a temporary good fortune, you can go to the underworld to make a fortune."
"These bastards must have killed many people over the years for their own selfish desires. It's no wonder that they refused to move even though they knew that the newly built ancestral hall was causing a lot of trouble and that the ancestors' spiritual thrones would not be in peace. It turned out that there was something so deep underground.
The secret! As the Chen family's family fortune declined, it became worse day by day. They were tired of running around and no longer had enough energy to choose a new address for the ancestral hall. That's why they continued to stay and were unwilling to move away. "
Aping bent over and clutched his heart, looking at the tragic human bone lanterns hanging on the wall with painful and angry eyes: "Taoist Master Jin'an, there really is such a murder of human lives in this world, for some yellow and white vulgar things.
To be continued...
