"Fourth brother, don't be afraid," Xu Ayue felt the person beneath her stopped. Thinking of Xu Asi's behavior every time he came to the ancestral hall, she patted the person below her on the shoulder and immediately reassured, "It's okay. You just put me down and I can pick it myself."

"I'll pick it up, you wait here."

Changqi's eyes flashed with a faint blue light, and finally disappeared. His face was very calm, and he placed the person riding on his neck in a cool place on the ground.

The closer you get to this house, the more you can feel the same kind of atmosphere. It's strange that you didn't notice it in the past. You are getting closer and closer to the ancestral hall while pretending to pick lotus leaves.

Looking down, he looked at the graceful and stretched lotus leaves on the water. He squatted down, stretched out his arms, and picked a huge lotus leaf neatly. He turned around and left without hesitation, giving the lotus leaf to Xu Xiaomei. Putting the person on his neck, "Let's go."

In the following time, Xu Ayue directed people to walk around.

"This is Xu Ahao's home."

"This is my uncle's."

"This belongs to the village chief."

……

This village is called Xujiacun, and most people in it have the surname Xu, as well as some foreign surnames such as Wang, Zhang, and Song.

There are red colors hanging in front of every house, and red linen is spread out, and the streets become festive.

"The celebration will be held for three days to celebrate the grand ceremony. People here believe in the Dragon King. They believe that the Dragon King will protect them and make life enjoyable. Everything will be smooth and the sea will be safe and sound."

Every time Xu Ayue said these words, Changqi always felt as if she was not from here, and always liked to tell the stories that happened here from the perspective of a third party.

"Then do you expect everything to be safe?" After saying that, Chang Qi felt that he had asked a stupid question.

"Of course, no one doesn't want themselves and the people around them to be safe." Xu Ayue said firmly.

On the day of the celebration, the Xu family's parents brought out newly made clothes, and everyone had a share, including Xu Asi.

"I got this one at short notice. I don't know if it will fit." Aniang Xu took the finished clothes and said to Xu Asi, with some apology in her tone.I originally thought that Xu Ah Si would spend time with Xu Ah Hao's house, but I didn't expect to be at their house, so I had to drive him out temporarily.

"Thank you, Auntie, I'll try it." Xu Asi entered the room holding the clothes.

Xu Ayue looked at Xu Asi who came out for a while, and finally concluded: "It's quite suitable. You can change it again in the future and it can be worn for a long time."

After summarizing, she said to her mother: "Mom, let's go shopping!"

"Go, Aqiang, take good care of your sister." Xu Aniang smiled brightly, while nagging her son to pay attention to things.

Xu Ayue was riding on Xu Aqiang's neck, holding her head with her hands, and felt drowsy when she heard the scream.

"Okay, grandma, I understand, don't worry, I will take care of both of these!" Xu Aqiang waved his hand impatiently, and his eyes signaled Xu Asi to run away!

"Aniang is so verbose!" Xu Aqiang looked helpless as he walked around the market.

"Oh." Xu Ayue got up too early. Once she calmed down, her whole body was sluggish. She yawned and wanted to sleep.

"Aqiang!" A thin black monkey suddenly rushed over from one side, "Let's go!"

Xu Aqiang immediately became energetic and put his little sister on the ground. He knew that his little sister had many clever ideas and there was no need to worry, "I'm going to play. We'll meet here when I get back!"

"You are so unreliable," Xu Ayue curled her lips and naturally took the hand of the person next to her, "Go ahead, go ahead."

Xu Aqiang looked at his younger sister and Xu Asi suspiciously. When did these two become so familiar?Before he could think about it, the person next to him couldn't wait any longer and pulled him aside, "Little sister, I'll take your brother away!" "Go, go." Xu Ayue took it for granted. Ah Yue opened her hands and waited for someone to hug her.

She was quite embarrassed at first, but after getting along with him for the past few days, she found that Xu Asi did not act impatient because of this, and she became more natural. At worst, she would be nicer to him.

The celebration in Xujia Village was grand. Xu Ayue stood under the tree waiting for Xu Asi who bought her candied haws.

"What are you doing?" Xu Aqiang went out today and ran back immediately when he saw the people under the tree.

"Waiting for fourth brother." Xu Ayue fanned herself with a cattail leaf fan on her head and glanced at her brother, "Where's my little stool!"

Everyone had to stay there during the celebration. Xu Ayue planned to sit there and wait for the celebration to end. After all, she was not the protagonist. She had done this every time in the past.

"Here it is." Xu Aqiang held up the small bench, placed it on the ground, and sat down as he should, "Let me sit for a while."

"You're really a brother." Xu Ayue said with a squinting look, and when she raised her eyes, she saw a familiar person walking over.

Xu Ayue subconsciously raised her hand to hold him, but the cool temperament around him made her shiver.

Xu Asi didn't say anything. He held up the candied haws in his hand and handed it to the other party. He held a copper coin in the other hand.

"Why don't you buy it?" Xu Ayue frowned slightly, and she gave him two people the money to buy candied haws.

But Xu Asi didn't speak, and just stared at her blankly.

Okay, she got it, this guy's temper was back.

Xu Ayue sighed and wanted to hold the person's hand and walk to a place with a lot of people, but the person shook him off.

"What are you doing!" Xu Aqiang was greedy for the candied haws in the little girl's hand, but seeing Xu Asi's attitude, he immediately rushed over.

Seeing this, Xu Ayue immediately stopped him and shook her head, "I'm fine, let's go."

The celebration was exactly the same as in previous years, except that this year for some unknown reason, in the afternoon while everyone was bowing their heads, a strong wind suddenly blew out the lit candles.

Xu Ayue was the closest, and she did not lower her head. She sat there and turned a blind eye, seeing everything clearly. Naturally, she also clearly saw the patriarch's actions of lighting candles and his panic-pretending calm expression.

She lowered her head. People rely on non-existent beliefs and believe in gods. They feel that gods should be merciful to everyone, but they don't even know what their own gods are. They just ask for it. Why would gods do this?

That night, Xujia Village ushered in a violent storm not seen in a century, washing away the blood and leaving debris everywhere.

From then on, Xujiacun became history.

Jiang Qingyan looked at the bright lights on the table. They were made of shark tears and would never go out.

Since Changqi noticed something was wrong with the ancestral hall, he began to investigate the truth.

The so-called truth is that a group of people choose to experiment on another group of people in an attempt to find the secret to longevity.

At that time, the emperor was pursuing the way to immortality, but a group of crooked people plundered and killed the sharks in order to defraud ignorant humans for profit, skinned and ate their flesh, and all the remaining bones were in the lotus pond.

Heaven has its own consequences.
