I have a roll of fairy pictures

Chapter 14 ancestor worship

There is never a lack of stories between stepmother and stepson.

Since ancient times, how many of the stepmothers and stepchildren can die well?

Hearing Huo Taixian's words, Huo Xin couldn't help shrinking his neck, feeling the vague attention of everyone around him. After all, he was only a five-year-old child. At this time, he was frightened by Huo Taixian, so he immediately frightened him down. Stand beside Huo Taixian.

Seeing this, the corners of Huo Taixian's mouth curled up, showing a smirk, and then stood there quietly.

Not long after, I only heard the sound of footsteps, and saw seven or eight old men with white beard and hair, coming hand in hand with Huo Jia, to the front of the clan's ancestral hall.

The eight old men, all with white beards and hair, walked over in a senile manner.

The eight people were dressed in coarse linen clothes. Although they looked old, they walked steadily.

The old man in the middle had wrinkles all over his face, he walked in the front, and Huo Jia followed behind.

Passing by the crowd, the old man passed by Huo Taixian, and then his eyes fell on Huo Taixian, and he couldn't help but pause.

The old man paused, and the rest of the people also stopped.

"Fifth Ancestor." Huo Taixian quickly saluted.

The fifth ancestor is called the fifth ancestor. No one knows what the fifth ancestor is called, and no one knows the name of the fifth ancestor. Since Huo Taixian can remember, the fifth ancestor has been the fifth ancestor.

"You want to give up your status as a legitimate son? Give up your right to inherit the title?" The fifth ancestor looked at Huo Taixian with calm eyes without any waves.

"Yes." Huo Taixian said.

The fifth ancestor was silent when he heard the words, and stared straight at Huo Taixian with slightly cloudy eyes. After a long time, he turned his head to look at Huo Jia, and said with emotion: "The descendants are not filial."

Huo Jia quickly lowered his head and dared not speak.

"He is a good boy, but unfortunately he was born in the wrong era. I have wronged you!" The Fifth Patriarch patted Huo Taixian on the shoulder:

"What belongs to you, no one can take it away."

After speaking, he turned his head away and walked to the ancestral temple, where the Huo family's ancestor worship ceremony officially began.

"Have all the clan members arrived?" The old man next to the Fifth Patriarch asked.

"Reporting to the ancestors, there are a total of [-] males within the five generations, and they have all been counted." A deacon of the Huo family replied.

"Sacrifice to the ancestors!" the old man said, and then there was a grand and cumbersome sacrifice ceremony.

Huo Taixian mixed in the crowd, followed the crowd to jump and worship, the five ghosts moving map in his body suddenly sensed at this time, and a colorful light flowed from Huo Taixian's eyes, and he saw the worship of the Huo family's descendants , The air of incense in front of the ancestral temple rose mightily into the sky and poured into the Huo Family Ancestral Temple.

In the Huo family's ancestral temple, a majestic and majestic divine light burst out, covering the entire Huo family's courtyard.

Facing the majestic divine light, Huo Taixian's heart suddenly moved, and for some reason, an indescribable desire arose.

Don't allow Huo Taixian to think too much, it seems that he felt Huo Taixian's gaze, and the mighty divine light counterattacked automatically, repelling Huo Taixian's aura.I saw the divine light trembled slightly, and then Huo Taixian's body trembled, and the divine power in his body was disordered for a while, which was dissipated by the mighty divine light.

"That's it?" Huo Taixian was so shocked that he couldn't speak, his eyes were full of shock, his internal energy was in disorder, and his muscles and bones were numb.

"That is the ancestral god of the Huo family. It is also the foundation of the Huo family's disciples. I never imagined that you have never practiced the skills of a painter, but you can also detect the aura of the ancestor god. It seems that sending you out of the mansion is the right thing in the family. Choose. Otherwise, if your talent is delayed, it will be a pity."

Huo Jia did not know when he appeared behind Huo Taixian, while performing a weird dance following the clan elder Vicissang, he lowered his voice and explained to Huo Taixian:

"Painters enter Taoism to obtain rhyme, and they need to understand the inspiration of heaven and earth. However, inspiration is strong and weak, and the picture scrolls painted by painters are also the same. Some people raise their families to make offerings to the golden-winged roc. Open the book, feel the rhythm of the golden-winged roc, and the picture scroll you draw will be blessed by the golden-winged roc."

"There is a family that enshrines the dragon, and the disciples use the dragon to open the scroll, and the scrolls they make are blessed by the dragon, so they naturally have a crushing advantage against disciples of the same generation."

"My Huo family can trace back to the founding emperor Taizu and become a nobleman of the Great Zhou Dynasty because my Huo family has two treasures. The first is the picture scroll "Seven Stars Map", and the second is this ancestor god. The ancestor god is a star outside the sky. Attracted by the map of the seven stars, it is enshrined by my Huo family, so my disciples of the Huo family have drawn star maps since childhood. As long as the skill level is sufficient, you can enter the ancestral temple, feel the power of the ancestor god, and enter the Tao with the spirit of the ancestor god."

Huo Jia kept popularizing science for Huo Tai.

The painters in this world enter the Tao with scrolls, and the scrolls they draw are naturally of various ranks.

Drawing a piece of grass is naturally different from drawing a mountain.

Especially if you have personally come into contact with Dashan, the scrolls you make will be blessed by Dashan, which is even more crushing power.

"Even in Haojing, my Huo family's seven-star map is definitely the strongest in the world. Unfortunately, the stronger the existence, the more difficult it is to comprehend and capture its aura." Huo Jia sighed.

While talking, the sacrifice had come to an end, and the Fifth Patriarch over there said, "Huo Taixian."

"The grandson is here." Huo Taixian quickly restrained his thoughts, stepped forward and bowed.

"You voluntarily gave up your status as the son of the eldest son?" Huo Taixian said.

"Grandson voluntarily gave up his status as a legitimate son." Huo Taixian said hastily.

"Take the genealogy." The fifth ancestor said.

No need to say, no need to ask.Before getting it on the table, everything must have been properly discussed in private, and the interests of all parties have reached an agreement and the division has been completed.

Hearing this, a disciple of the family came forward to hand over the genealogy, and then the Fifth Patriarch looked through it, took a pen and ink to outline:
"Huo Taixian, the 160th second-generation son of the Huo family, voluntarily gave up his status as the son of the Huo family. According to his rank, Huo Xin was made the son of the Huo family. Do you have any objections?"

In the courtyard of the great lady

on a tall building
King Duan and Da Furen stood at the railing, looking at the sacrifice of the Huo family, with the mighty and endless incense, there was a hint of thought in their eyes.

"Although the Huo family is a veteran aristocrat, but the sun is setting, there must be a Huo Jia, and with the strong support of the Murong family, I am afraid that the Huo family will be even more dilapidated now." Duan Wang said while supporting the railing.

"The Huo family should not be underestimated, there are still some foundations. There are still a few of those who are old and immortal. When Huo Xin inherits the position of the head of the Murong family, we will seize his seven-star map, and then we can plan for the ancestors of the Huo family. .” After Murong Qiu said this, he looked at King Duan:
"Don't you usually practice hard in the deep palace? Why do you have time to come and see me today?"

"This is the medicine that catalyzes the upside-down Gu to break out. Please help me, aunt, to completely complete this act of reversing destiny."

Duan Wang took out a black ball and handed it to Murong Qiu.

"Is it time to close the net?" Murong Qiu sighed quietly, his eyes full of emotion.

"I have wronged my aunt. The fault was not for me. As a proud person who was famous all over the world, how could my aunt marry into a mere Huo family?" Duan Wang bowed his head to the end.

"It's all worth it for the great cause." Murong Qiu sighed quietly: "Leave this matter to me."

"It's a trouble for Huo Taixian to give up his status as a son-in-law. If he can't stay by his side and stare at him day and night, it will be a hidden danger after all." Wang Duan said.

"Right now, we can only wait and see what happens, and then look for opportunities." Murong Qiu said helplessly.

The aunt and nephew whispered upstairs, seeing that the sacrifice of the Huo family was about to be completed, King Duan turned and left.

Worship completed
Huo Jia walked back to the backyard and saw Murong Qiu who was painting, with a smile on his face: "Madam's painting skills are getting better and better, but she hasn't let go of her hard work these years."

"I stay in the back house every day and have nothing to do. Apart from painting, I have nothing to worry about. On the contrary, I have excellent painting skills." Murong Qiu said:
"Is the matter of the fetal fairy settled?"

"It's done." Huo Jia nodded: "From now on, our Huo family will be harmonious, and the biggest problem in my heart will be resolved."

"Call that child over for dinner tonight." Murong Qiu said, "Our family hasn't eaten together for a long time. When he goes to Chang'an County in the future, we will have fewer and fewer opportunities to eat."

Huo Jia's mouth cracked when he heard this: "Listen to Madam."

Huo Taixian returned to his pavilion and started packing his luggage.

After becoming a commoner, many rules are no longer the same, and Huo Taixian needs to adapt to them.

Silk and brocade can no longer be worn, and even some exquisite jade articles can no longer be worn.

"My lord, the master said, go to the backyard to have a reunion dinner tonight." A beautiful maid walked outside the door, who was a close friend of the father.

After seeing Huo Taixian, there was no smile on his face, and his expressionless face was like a wooden man.

Huo Taixian nodded, indicating that he knew it, and he was not interested in talking to the maid.

In the Huo family, he suffered from this kind of indifference too much, and he has long been familiar with it.

If it wasn't for his status as a legitimate son, these slaves would not dare to act rashly, maybe someone would have secretly tripped him up.

Huo Taixian packed his luggage, then got up and went to the backyard. Along the way, he saw that the mansion was incomparably luxurious, with rockery and orderly gardens, which were no worse than the Old Summer Palace in later generations.

On the road, servants kept saying hello to Huo Taixian expressionlessly, but Huo Taixian ignored them and walked on his own.

Before reaching the backyard, a burst of wild laughter was heard from far away. Huo Xin's laughter continued to spread in the dark night, and it was a little harsh in Huo Taixian's ears.

"Father, mother!"

Huo Taixian walked into the backyard and looked at the brightly lit hall, where Huo Jia, Murong Qiu, Huo Xin, Huo Ling and others were sitting together happily, full of warmth, how embarrassing and redundant it seemed to him.

Fortunately, this situation will end tomorrow!

Everyone looked over in unison, Murong Qiu looked gentle, put down Huo Xin in his arms, and looked at Huo Taixian:
"Little Queer is here, come in and sit down. You are going to Chang'an to start a business tomorrow, and I don't know how long it will be before you come back. Let's have a reunion dinner. Your father is too cruel, and you are so young, so I will send you out and let me He didn't listen to all kinds of persuasion."
