According to the rules of Gongyang Village, before getting married, the newlyweds must go to the Li Family Ancestral Hall to worship their ancestors and receive their blessings.
"Then the groom is responsible for leading us here." Su Qingyu glanced at his watch. It was three o'clock in the afternoon.
The sky outside was already gloomy and a storm was about to come.
The ancestral hall is a place where ancestral tablets are enshrined. They need to explore it as quickly as possible and then leave.
Su Qingyu said: "On the way here, I found a lot of women's hair on the ground, extending all the way here. I think there must be some important clues here."
Shen Sinian nodded: "I have also discovered what you said. I guess that the ground is most likely the guide for the missing bride."
He paced in the ancestral hall, looked around, then frowned and said seriously: "No, when we came, the door of the ancestral hall was open."
Su Qingyu's heart tightened, and she asked, "What's the point?"
The furnishings of this ancestral hall seem ordinary at first glance, but upon closer inspection there are many unreasonable things.
When Shen Si was young, he lived in the countryside. As the only male in the family, he was often responsible for the ancestral temple worship activities during the Qingming Festival.
He patiently explained: "The main gate of the ancestral hall is usually not opened. It is only opened during the spring and autumn sacrifices or when the clan members discuss important matters."
The spring festival refers to the Qingming Festival.
The autumn sacrifice refers to the Double Ninth Festival.
"Today is not a festival for sacrificial offerings. According to what you said, some tribesmen are here to discuss important matters..." As soon as these words came out, a gust of cold wind blew through the hall.
On the shrine in the middle is placed the tablet of Li's ancestor, a small rectangular wooden tablet with black characters on a white background, engraved with the name of Li's ancestor.
Su Qingyu discovered that the tablets were all upside down.
If the ancestral tablet falls to the ground, it means the loss of the ancestors' blessing, the decline of the family, and the possibility of bloody disaster.
There is a auspicious beast incense burner in front of you, with three severed incense sticks inserted in it.
Burning the incense stick will cause your wife and children to be separated and your family to be cut off.
When they entered the door, the incense actually lit up by itself, dropping black ash.
Shen Sinian's face turned extremely ugly, and he muttered, "White is auspicious, black is ominous, and yellow is auspicious. The ancestral tablet is upside down, the incense sticks are spontaneously combusted without being lit, and the incense ash is gray. This is a very bad omen!"
He grabbed Su Qingyu's arm and said, "Be obedient, let's leave here first!"
Before Su Qingyu traveled through time and space in the book, she lived in a big city and had no idea about the etiquette of ancestral temple sacrifices.
She felt that leaving was not the best option.
"Wait a minute." Su Qingyu did not rush to leave, but calmly analyzed: "The groom brought us here specifically, he must have something to say.
This is a copy, not the real world.
Although the decorations in the ancestral hall are not in line with common sense, the rules do not say that these things are bad omens, so there is no need to worry. "
The furnishings in the ancestral hall were obviously intended to scare away the trial-takers who came here.
The more it wants the trial-taker to leave, the more important clues there are here!
"you-"
Shen Sinian looked at Su Qingyu with complicated eyes. Just now, the system reminded him that this ancestral hall had new rules and asked him to continue exploring.
In the ancestral hall, the black hair was so dense that it extended under the table in front of the shrine.
