The sky is getting dark, and it's time to worship our ancestors again.
Liu Tao made a rule to worship his ancestors twice a day, morning and evening. If there were special circumstances and it was too late to worship, he would have to make up for it when he came back in the evening.
The rules cannot be broken.
Today, after Liu Tao and others hosted a banquet for Fang Yu's senior brother Li Qingshan, they walked to the ancestral hall together.
On the way, the tribesmen had finished practicing for the day and were dispersing in twos and threes.
When Liu Tao, Liu Dahai and others came to the square, only a few of the hardest-working tribesmen were still holding stone rollers to exercise their muscles. At the same time, they happened to see Liu Qiqi and Liu Xiaotao stepping into the Leiling Dojo together. , Liu Muyun and Liu Zixu walked into the Huoling Dojo.
"These little guys are very good. It seems that they are not far from the Heavenly Phase Realm." Liu Dahai said happily.
Liu Tao and others also smiled. The younger generation of the Liu family was thriving, which was an excellent sign.
Liu Liuhai suddenly said: "Today, what do you think of Li Qingshan, the courier delivery person? Can you recruit him as your son-in-law?"
Liu Tao was stunned and looked at Liu Erhai.
Liu Erhai is a professional when it comes to recruiting a son-in-law, so he respects Liu Erhai's decision.
Liu Erhai pondered: "Li Qingshan, this person seems to be a real person, but we have too little contact with him, so we still need to observe his character."
"In addition, this person used to be the Holy Son of the Taoist sect. Why did such a talented man leave the Taoist sect? Whether he defected, was expelled, or had other secrets. We have to investigate. We still need to know the general situation."
Liu Tao nodded and said: "The second elder is thoughtful and considerate. I can rest assured when you do your work!"
Liu Erhai burst into laughter upon hearing this, his chest high.
Liu Liuhai and Liu Dahai looked at each other and smiled.
The patriarch's words ignited Erhai's little flame again. It is estimated that Erhai will not be able to sleep tonight.
While talking, a group of people had arrived at the ancestral hall.
Liu Dongdong was keeping vigil for his ancestors. When he saw Liu Tao and the others, he bowed and saluted, then walked out of the ancestral hall and went to the balcony to continue practicing.
Liu Tao and Liu Dahai respectfully offered incense, burned paper, kowtowed to their ancestors, and then talked a lot to their ancestors. The situation was like a work report.
In an ancient bronze coffin.
In the Chaos Zone, Liu Fan's mind clone looked at the descendants who were worshiping him. After a slight deduction, his eyes fell on Liu Dahai, with a surprised smile on his face.
"There is actually an opportunity on earth for the sea to become a god!"
"It seems that we still have to let the sea go to the earth."
Liu Fan pondered, waved his hand, and the tablet in his hand disappeared.
In the ancestral hall.
Liu Dahai paid homage to his ancestors and was about to leave with Liu Tao and others.
But at this moment, a strong wind suddenly sounded on Liu Dahai's forehead. Liu Dahai was startled. He thought he was attacked by an enemy and wanted to fight back, but his forehead hurt as something fell from the sky and hit him on the head.
He screamed in fright, and screamed out of habit: "My life is at stake! Chief, I have to go accompany my ancestors!"
However, for a moment, he was stunned because he seemed to be fine.
Liu Tao, Liu Liuhai and Liu Erhai all looked at him strangely, with confused expressions on their faces.
"What's wrong? Dahai?" Liu Tao asked, "Why do you suddenly go to accompany your ancestors when you are so good? Are you about to end your life?"
Liu Liuhai questioned: "It shouldn't be. Dahai is full of energy and vitality. It doesn't look like he is about to expire. And haven't we all touched the soul technique?"
They had already talked to each other about the Soul Cultivation Technique at noon, and even started sorting out the cultivation methods with the intention of promoting them to the clan members.
In addition, among the treasures sent by Li Duobao's father, there are also several soul skills, which are enough to support the development of the Liu family.
Liu Dahai touched his forehead and said doubtfully: "Something fell from above my head just now and hit me on the head..."
As he spoke, he lowered his head and looked around to find what had hit him.
However, nothing was found, and Liu Tao and the others also looked at Liu Dahai strangely, thinking that he was hallucinating.
Liu Dahai's body suddenly shook, and his expression became shocked, and finally became surprised, excited, and unbelievable. He looked at Liu Tao and the others, swallowed his saliva, and said with bright eyes: "Clan leader, Erhai Liuhai, tell me what you are saying." You may not believe it, but my ancestor just appeared to me."
"What?!"
"Gah?!"
"How is it possible? My ancestor's favorite cub has not been revealed. Why would he appear to you?"
Liu Tao and Liu Erhai were shocked, and Liu Liuhai yelled jealously.
Liu Dahai smiled proudly and said, "I'm not going to lie to you, my ancestor really showed his spirit to me."
As he said that, he closed his eyes and felt something suddenly appeared in his hand. It was a memorial tablet, earthy yellow, three inches wide and seven inches high, exuding a hazy light, with a line of words written on it - "Gu Xian Ancestor Liu, the ancestor of physical cultivation." "Fanzhi tablet".
"Huh?! Where did this tablet come from?" Liu Liuhai was surprised and turned to look at the shrine. There was also a tablet there.
"Two tablets?! What's going on?" Liu Tao and Liu Erhai were also stunned.
Liu Dahai smiled and said: "The tablet is naturally given by the ancestors!"
"My ancestors are so awesome, why should I be surprised if they give me a tablet?"
Liu Tao and Liu Liuhai opened their mouths. They wanted to question but were suddenly alerted. Dahai was digging a hole for them. If they questioned this sentence, wouldn't they be questioning the incompetence of their ancestors
That will be struck by lightning!
Liu Erhai asked: "Then why did our ancestors show you the spirit alone? He also gave you a tablet."
Liu Dahai's face turned serious and he said, "When I got this tablet, I sensed a message."
"The information tells me that in a planet called Earth in the Milky Way, the body of an old man is going to be dug up and cremated by the unworthy descendants. Now I need to rescue the old man's body and at the same time educate the unworthy descendants to respect the elderly and love the young."
Liu Dahai finished speaking in one breath, and Liu Tao and others were stunned.
"To the Milky Way? Where is that? And Earth? Where is that?"
Liu Dahai shook his head and said, "I don't know either, but this memorial tablet of my ancestor will take me there."
Hearing this, Liu Erhai was stunned for a while, then he looked at his ancestor's throne and said with emotion: "It seems that our ancestor was bored and wanted to go out to play, so he found an excuse..."
Before he finished speaking, Liu Liuhai glared and interrupted, scolding: "Shut up! Erhai, our ancestors are traveling. How can we say that we are going out to play? It is to relax. Don't talk about our ancestors in such a vulgar way!"
Liu Erhai palmed his mouth and immediately admitted his mistake.
Liu Tao took the tablet from Liu Dahai's hand and felt it carefully. He found that the tablet was well made and made of strange materials. He was surprised that there was no trace of it when he pressed it with his hands.
Then, he sighed and said: "It seems that our ancestors have been prepared for a long time, even the equipment for traveling is ready!"
Liu Tao said, turned around and saluted the ancestor's shrine, and then said to Liu Dahai: "Dahai, there are so many of us, but our ancestor chose you. I think there must be a deep meaning in this. You need to take good care of it." Realize.”
Liu Dahai's heart moved and he said gratefully: "The patriarch's reminder makes sense. I will use my heart to understand the profound meaning of my ancestor's move."
Liu Liuhai asked: "Dahai, when will you set off? Do you need to bring anyone else with you?"
Liu Dahai pondered for a moment, then looked at Liu Tao and said, "Clan leader, I would like to second someone from you."
"who?"
"Yang Shou'an!"
…
In Liu Tao's yard, Yang Shou'an came with a puzzled and excited look on his face, wondering if Liu Tao wanted to give him a reward, but after half a stick of incense, he left with a sad and worried look on his face.
Returning to his commander's residence, Yang Shou'an kept pacing back and forth.
His godson, Tibetan Mastiff Zhang Hao, stood with his hands down, his face respectful, wondering what his godfather was worried about.
At this time, it was already dark, and the night was deep outside. The chirping of insects in the garden was clear and loud, and it was particularly loud when it entered the room.
The oil lamp in the room beat feebly, emitting dim light, reflecting a painting on the wall.
The painting is a picture of a tiger roaring on a hill. The tiger in the painting is majestic, with hundreds of beasts crouching under him. But beside the tiger, there is a big willow tree growing in the sky. The dense willow leaves cover the sky and the sun, completely shrouding it. .
This painting was gifted to Yang Shou'an by Liu Tao. It had a profound meaning, but Yang Shou'an understood it clearly.
The willow tree is the Liu family, and the tiger is Yang Shou'an. No matter how majestic and domineering Yang Shou'an is, he has to surrender under the big tree of the Liu family.
In order to show his sincerity, Yang Shou'an hung this painting in the most conspicuous place in the room. After Liu Tao saw it, he gave it high praise and affirmation.
In the past, Yang Shouan was very proud when he saw this painting. After all, not everyone is qualified to be the tiger under the big tree of the Liu family. It also depends on the person!
But at this moment, under the dim light, Yang Shou'an's face was full of worry.
"My adoptive father asked me to follow the great elder to the starry sky. I'm afraid this errand will be difficult to do!"
"I haven't used the elixir last time. I only moved to the mountain realm after my cultivation. My adoptive father can see it, but why do you still let me follow the great elder to do the mission in the starry sky? Life and death are unpredictable even when entering the starry sky in the saint realm, not to mention I am in such a small place, what is the profound meaning of my adoptive father’s move?”
"My adoptive father said that it was the great elder who took the initiative to call my name. Is that true? Why don't I believe it? Could it be that my adoptive father felt that I was monopolizing the power of the Shadow Army and was too powerful to be removed, so he wanted to remove my commander? , let someone else do it?!"
"No, no, my adoptive father should not be such a person. I have been working as a Shadow Army for a long time, and my psychology has become dark. It is really a sin to think of my adoptive father like this."
"But... forget it... I'd better make more preparations... I can't help but be on guard!"
Yang Shouan pondered, then turned around suddenly, with a deep light shining in his eyes, and said: "Zhang Hao!"
"Daddy, the baby is here!" Tibetan Mastiff Zhang Hao bowed and responded.
Yang Shou'an took a few steps closer, touched Zhang Hao's head, and sighed: "Xiao Haozi, how long have you been following me?"
Zhang Hao didn't know Yang Shou'an's intention, so he bowed and replied: "My child has been with his adoptive father for ten years, eight months and thirteen days!"
Yang Shou'an nodded and said with a smile: "You are indeed my most valued godson. I have always had high hopes for you and believe that you will be the next governor."
Zhang Hao knelt down and kowtowed excitedly. Is his godfather going to promote him? He was so excited, so he said loudly: "The child will be his godfather's son when he is born, and he will be his godfather's ghost when he dies. In this life, he will always be loyal to his godfather." , I will go up to the mountain of swords and go down to the sea of fire without any hesitation!”
Yang Shouan smiled slightly and said: "Very good, very good!"
After that, he turned and walked out of the house, but suddenly turned back, as if he remembered something, and said: "I met my adoptive father today, and I heard from him that he wants to promote you to be the commander and take over my position."
After saying this, Yang Shouan narrowed his eyes and stared closely into Zhang Hao's eyes.
Zhang Hao was stunned for a moment, then fell to his knees and said with a look of fear: "Godfather, I can't be a commander. I can only be your godson, running errands for you to conquer the world. I was born to be a slave, and I have no qualifications." Become a boss. Only you, a wise and mighty godfather, are qualified."
"Children would never dare to hope for the position of commander!"
Yang Shou'an's eyes flickered, and he stared at Zhang Hao carefully, observing the changes in his pupils and facial muscles. If there was a hint of excitement or surprise, the knife in his waist would be cut out immediately.
However, after observing for a long time, Zhang Hao found nothing unusual. On the contrary, Yang Shou'an's scalp felt numb when he saw it. His heart was filled with fear and cold sweat was pouring from his forehead. Especially when he saw that Yang Shou'an's hand was on the handle of the knife without knowing when, he was even more frightened. His face turned pale.
However, at this time, Yang Shou'an suddenly burst into laughter, walked up to Zhang Hao and patted Zhang Hao's head, and said with a friendly smile: "Little Haozi, I was just joking, I hope I scare you."
Zhang Hao forced out a smile and said in a trembling voice: "My godfather is wise and powerful, and he is the target that children will always look up to."
Yang Shou'an said: "I'm going on a long trip. Come here and I'll give you some instructions. You must do them well!"
Zhang Hao hurriedly listened, nodded seriously, then bowed and exited the room.
After walking far, the night wind blew, and Zhang Hao's body felt cold. Only then did he realize that he was already soaked. Thinking back to the scene in the room just now, he felt a thrill in his heart. He was afraid that he had just walked through the gate of hell. .
"You have to hurry up and run the errands assigned by your godfather, otherwise it will really kill you."
Zhang Hao swallowed his saliva, walked away in a hurry, and quickly disappeared into the night.
Yang Shou'an's control methods have been superb.
