Time flies, and the rest of the month passes by in an instant.
The New Year festival of the Eastern Old Calendar is approaching, and the city-state of the Yin people has become extremely lively. Except for those members of the Yin tribe who had taken on secret responsibilities outside and could not escape, the other Yin tribe members, no matter what they were doing outside, rushed back as quickly as possible.
Hundreds of thousands of blood servants were busy inside and outside, cleaning the Yin tribe's city-state spotlessly. Bright red and gold couplets were pasted on every door, and there were as many scarlet lanterns as there were stars in the sky, covering every door and every beam in the entire city-state.
The Yin city-state, which has a gloomy and depressive atmosphere, has gained a bit of bright color out of thin air in the past few days. But this bright red, which represents auspiciousness and joy in the east, is so dazzling under the bright red light of the blood mist barrier.
Yin Xuege also finished his training and joined in the various busyness and preparations to welcome the New Year with a bright smile.
His identity at this moment is very different from that of more than a month ago. All his authority and treatment are equivalent to those of the elders of the 'di' generation. He is always followed by eight great deacons from the four major halls of real power, and more A large group of Yin masters and warriors accompanied him to protect him. As long as he gives an order, countless people will be busy all day long without even leaving their feet!
In the past eleven years, Yin Xuege has never felt like this. Everyone was in awe of him. Everyone subconsciously lowered their gazes, lowered their voices and tuned their voices in front of him. When everyone saw him, they warmly greeted and blessed him.
This unfamiliar enthusiasm reminded Yin Xuege of many things. He was only eleven years old, and there was already a hint of vicissitudes and maturity in his eyes. His state of mind had undergone considerable changes in just a few days. The sense of expansion in strength brought by absorbing twenty drops of the Duke's essence and blood was worn away bit by bit by the vicissitudes of life and heaviness.
With a heart that is empty and round, Yin Xuege deeply understood one thing - power is everything!
On the bell tower on the east side of the Yin Clan Ancestral Temple, the ancient bronze bell weighing twelve thousand kilograms rang loudly. The rich and resonant bells sounded hundreds of miles away. In the Yin city-state, all the people put on formal attire and walked in neat lines towards the ancestral temple according to their seniority and status.
After the bell rang one hundred and eight times, more than 100,000 Yin people stood neatly in the square in front of the ancestral temple.
Dozens of elders of the Tianzi generation of the Yin tribe lined up in front of the ancestral temple. They wore dark gold-red ceremonial robes and high crowns made of purple gold on their heads. Their clothes and clothes completely followed the Coming from the ancient etiquette of the East, even a small pendant on the belt is an ancient oriental jade with thousands of years of history.
In the middle of these Yin clan elders, the smiling Yin Tianjue put his hands in his sleeves and looked down at the people of his family who were neatly lined up for miles. The huge square was silent, and no one from the Yin tribe dared to make the slightest sound.
Time passed minute by minute, and suddenly, on the drum tower on the west side of the ancestral temple, a giant drum with a diameter of twelve meters was played by two sturdy men holding giant animal bone hammers. The dull, deep, heart-piercing drum beat slowly sounded. Yin Tianjue straightened his face, turned around without saying a word, pressed his hands on the door of the ancestral temple, and pushed open the ebony wooden door with all his strength. Complete, the gate of the ancestral temple is two feet thick.
The good time has come, and the annual ancestral worship ceremony of the Yin people’s ancestral temple has officially begun!
Amidst the long creaking sound, the two doors of the ancestral temple, which were 20 meters high and 12 meters wide, suddenly opened, and a dense cold air spurted out from the dark ancestral temple. This cold air swept across the entire square instantly, and countless people among the Yin people who stood solemnly shivered at the same time.
The sound of "huhu" was heard endlessly, and countless torches and braziers were lit up in the dark ancestral temple. Dark red firelight illuminated the Yin clan's ancestral temple, which covers an area of several miles. There were faint sounds of wooden fish and chanting coming from the depths of the ancestral temple.
Under the leadership of Yin Tianjue, a group of senior elders of the Yin clan entered the ancestral temple in a procession. Yin Tianjue's biological brother and the second supreme elder of the Yin clan, Yin Tianmie, straightened his waist and stood in front of the ancestral temple, majestically unfolding a bloody scroll in his hand.
"Yin Di Feng!"
A young man standing among the elders of the Yin tribe bowed and saluted Yin Tianmie. He walked very seriously and walked steadily forward, and walked a few steps forward in front of the ancestral temple. Steps, slowly walked into the gate of the ancestral temple.
"Yin Di Zhen!"
A Yin man with three willow strands and an ancient appearance smiled reservedly, bowed to Yin Tianmie in the same way, and walked quickly into the ancestral temple.
One after another, the names of the Yin people were announced by Yin Tianmi, and one after another, the Yin people walked into the gate of the ancestral temple. They are all members of the tribe who are qualified to enter the ancestral temple, offer incense to the ancestors of the Yin tribe, and participate in the ancestor worship ceremony. Being able to participate in the annual ancestor worship ceremony does not bring actual benefits to the Yin tribe, but it represents his status in the Yin tribe!
If you can enter the ancestral temple to participate in the New Year ancestor worship, you are a core member of the Yin tribe. Even if you are from a side line of the Yin clan, as long as you can enter the ancestral temple every year to participate in the ancestor worship ceremony, no one will dare to look down upon you!
On the contrary, even if you are a direct descendant of the same clan, even if you are the biological son of Yin Tianjue, if one year you are suddenly deprived of the qualification to enter the ancestral temple to worship your ancestors, there is no doubt that your life in the Yin clan will be very difficult! Other tribesmen will look at him with strange eyes, and the gang members who were attached to them in the past may change their families immediately!
The blood demon clan is the race that cares most about practical benefits! Every year’s ancestor worship ceremony contains so many things!
There are more than 5,000 members of the Yin tribe, but only 258 are eligible to enter the ancestral temple to participate in the ancestor worship ceremony!
All the Yin people are aware of this list, and they roughly know those people who are eligible to enter the ancestral temple today. They also all know that those who were not qualified to enter before will receive the honor today; and those who were eligible to enter in the past few years have been deprived of the qualification to worship their ancestors because they did something wrong this year. .
The only thing that shocked the Yin tribe people present was that when the last elder of the Yin tribe's "di" generation was named by Yin Tianmie and walked into the ancestral temple, Yin Tianmie calmly reported something that was beyond everyone's expectations. Name - 'Yin Blood Song'!
Standing at the very back of the square, Yin Xuege was stunned among the young children. Countless tribesmen in the square looked at him at the same time, with mixed emotions of shock, horror, and disbelief in their eyes. Yin Xuege is just a child, how can he be qualified to enter the ancestral temple today
Even if he is a day walker, he has unlimited potential, and he is qualified to enter the ancestral temple, but he should not be ranked among the many elders of the "earth" generation, and rush to enter the ancestral temple before so many elders!
The Yin tribesmen in front of Yin Xuege subconsciously moved to the left and right, making way for a road leading directly to the ancestral temple.
Taking a deep breath, Yin Xuege showed a smile of understanding with his heart wide open. He raised his head slightly, walked step by step towards the gate of the ancestral temple in a leisurely manner.
"Yin Xuege, you deserve this!" Yin Xuege looked at the main entrance of the ancestral temple with firm eyes. He didn't even glance at Yin Tianmie, he just walked past Yin Tianmie and stepped into the gate of the ancestral temple.
A small sound like the chirping of mosquitoes and flies suddenly sounded in Yin Xuege's ears: "Yin Xuege! Your mother, Yin Huangwu, is my direct descendant. In other words, you are the legitimate son of my Yin Tianmie lineage. Do your best. , if you have any needs, just go to Xuanyin Palace, the entire Xuanyin Palace will be your backing!"
Yin Xuege's face twitched slightly. He turned to look at Yin Tianmie, nodded slightly, and then strode into the ancestral temple.
All this time, Yin Xuege only knew that he had the identity of the legitimate son of the Yin clan and that Yin Huangwu was his mother. Other than that, he knew nothing about his life experience. Until today, he didn't know that Yin Huangwu was from Yin Tianmie's lineage and was a direct descendant of Yin Tianmie.
The Yin Clan has nine elders of the Tianzi generation, and the Yin Clan's direct bloodline is divided into nine branches. Each bloodline has a palace in the Yin clan city-state. Xuanyin Palace is the core stronghold of Yin Tianmie's clan. "Xuanyin Palace" also refers to everyone and everything in Yin Tianmie's clan. the power of.
If Yin Tianjue's reward and promise to Yin Xuege more than a month ago represented the recognition of the entire Yin clan, today Yin Tianjue's calm voice transmission represents the lineage of the 'Xuanyin Palace' The Yin people support Yin Xuege!
From then on, Yin Xuege truly had a power within the Yin clan that he could borrow, a force that could protect him when he was weak.
Following a corridor paved with black stones, Yin Xuege walked step by step towards the ancestral temple hall a hundred meters away. Yin Tianjue and other Yin clan senators and elders stood neatly in front of the ancestral temple hall. They all had their eyelids drooped, their mouths closed, their noses closed, and their minds silent.
Yin Xuege chose an outermost position behind many elders and stood there. Then he imitated the appearance of these elders and also narrowed his eyes without saying a word. The atmosphere in the ancestral temple was extremely depressing, and even Yin Xuege's mind went blank with no other thoughts.
Yin Tianmie's high-pitched and long registration voice came from behind, and one after another core members of the Yin tribe's "Wu" generation slowly walked in. Only a hundred and twenty-seven people from the Wuzi generation are eligible to enter the ancestral temple. These clansmen of the Wuzi generation are not responsible for any actual affairs in the clan. Most of them are in the golden stage of improving their strength. They spend their days in seclusion and practicing hard!
