husband from hell

Chapter 297 A Trial

Sin ah...

What kind of deep hatred is this, burning the spirit of the ancestors to eat incense?

But there is nothing I can do now, I am not the one who acted recklessly, I hope these spirit masters in heaven don't blame me!

Things have come to this, it's time to stop itching if there are too many lice, and don't worry if there are too many tents, I had no choice but to reach out and take a lit spiritual tablet, and shine into it.

Inside, as expected, it looks like an ancestral hall, just like in costume dramas, it is a set of rules.

It's just that the setting of the stage is already a mess, as if it was robbed, everything has been messed up.

Whose ancestral hall?By the way, isn't this a spiritual position?As a result, by the light of the fire, it was found that the gold-painted characters on the spirit tablet had been completely smoked to black, and nothing could be seen.

"Don't blame it, don't blame it..." With a sense of guilt for trespassing, I continued to look inside, trying to find a way out, but looking left and right, I couldn't find the door.

strangeness……

Why can I be fished here from that pool of deep water.Could this be the "secret passage" that grandpa quietly appeared?
Out of curiosity, I wanted to take a look inside the ancestral hall. At this moment, the light of the spiritual tablet was flickering. I didn't see my feet clearly, so I stumbled and fell to the ground.

"Oh..." I got up from the ground and looked back. Why is there still a threshold in the ancestral hall...

wrong!How can the threshold move?

It's a snake!

I raised my heart immediately, oh my god, why are there snakes here!

It can be mistaken for a threshold, of course, it cannot be a small snake. Looking at the gaudy patterns on it, it may be a poisonous snake!

I jumped back in three steps and two steps, waved the lit spirit tablet and looked at it, and only heard a "chick", the snake turned around, and a big head pointed towards me!

Under the light of the dim fire above the spiritual table, I could see the snake's head clearly, and even straightened my eyes. You said a snake, how could there be hair growing out of its head?
And that hair is black and shiny, dripping water dripping down, I understood at once, just now I fell into that deep pool, it was this snake that was wrapping me around with its full head of hair down!
What the hell is this, a genetically modified snake?
I couldn't figure it out, but the snake's long black hair was thrown back, and it looked like a beauty out of the bath. It was a very charming gesture, and a head was exposed from under the black hair. .

If it was a human head, it would be even more novel. Fortunately, this snake spirit may not have cultivated well enough, and the head and face are not human, but snake-faced.

But I still hadn't let go of my heart, and the snake's jaw seemed to be split open, opening 180 degrees, and the big white teeth with sticky saliva were biting towards me!

I'm full of complaints, it's true that Cao Cao meets Jiang Gan when he recites, Hudou meets porridge when he recites, I can meet anything!

Fortunately, relying on the art of yin and yang to ward off ghosts, my body's reaction has always been very sensitive. I folded my body back and dodged it. I saw the snake's tongue like a red scarf poking out towards me!
I suddenly remembered that the legendary snake spirit can stick its tongue into a person's nose, and then poke it into the brain from the nose, drink the human brain like eight-treasure porridge, and suck the person into a void Shell, and then use human body as skin to make yourself human...

I don't want to be a snakeskin!
But when he turned around, he saw that the place was cramped, all the spiritual seats had been removed, and his body would be touching the edge of that altar.I had no choice but to turn over on the altar, holding the spirit tablet in my hand as a torch, and swayed it in front of the big snake. Wild animals are generally afraid of fire. I hope this big snake is a little bit self-aware!
Sure enough, the big snake lived up to the high expectations. When it saw the fire, it retracted its head, but it still stared at me with a red tongue rolling back and forth, as if it was ready to cook me.

I made up my mind, what's the matter with this snake?Obviously that fur cloak was trying to save me, but why didn't he do it to the end, sent the Buddha to the west, cooked the snake, and left me such a generous gift?

The snake stretched its head, and the flames of the spirit tablet reflected two small dots in its brown eyes.

It doesn't make sense to delay like this. Sooner or later, the spiritual places will be finished, and I will be doomed by then, so I can only keep an eye out for the big snake, and use my free left hand to randomly feel on the altar table to see if there are any. What tools are left.

As a result, I fumbled around, and when I stretched out my hand, I couldn't find anything else. I found a rather large round plate from behind.

He held the round plate in front of his eyes, and it was a delicately carved brass utensil. It was obviously used to place tributes during sacrifices. In terms of its size, it was as big as a gong, and it was more than enough for three pig heads.

The brass plate was heavy, and I wondered, how can I use this thing?correct……

I lowered the torch a little, and the snake obviously felt that his chance had come, and was eager to probe. I took the big copper plate in my hand, and the snake moved to the left.

Of course, the snake followed me to move to the left, and I boldly put the spiritual tablet aside. When the big snake saw that there was no fire, it had nothing to fear from me, so it immediately stretched out its head and opened its mouth wide. It rushed to my head, and a smell of fishy smell came to my nostrils. I picked up the big copper plate with one hand, and stuffed the big copper plate into the big snake's mouth without any hesitation.

This shot, to say it conceitedly, is definitely a ruthless one. The copper plate got stuck between the upper and lower teeth of the big snake, unable to spit it out and swallow it. A silly and cute look who doesn't know what happened, brown eyes are quite confused, that look is very joyful.

"Ahem," I cleared my throat and looked at the snake: "Don't eat me, I'll give you a mask to pay for your life."

The big snake seemed to be able to understand human words, and suddenly understood what happened, and immediately became very violent. Even if it couldn't swallow me with its mouth, it still shook its trunk-like body, thinking Wrapping me up, I immediately took the spiritual seat again, and ran towards the big snake's full head of hair and burned it.

Maybe the big snake's full head of hair is not easy to grow, and I cherish it very much. I quickly shrank back when I saw it. Taking advantage of this skill, I jumped over the slippery and scaly body of the big snake in three or two steps. Back to the campfire again.

Anyway, there are still a lot of spiritual positions here at the campfire, if the big snake is afraid of fire, it's okay to hold on for a while.

The reason why the big snake didn't devour me when I was unconscious just now is probably because it is afraid of fire.

Sure enough, when we got to the campfire, the big snake didn't want to stretch out its head anymore, and made a hissing sound with its big mouth, as if threatening me: "Little boy, you wait for labor and management."

Anyway, if it wears a mask, there is nothing to be afraid of. I just thought, before the fire goes out, I have to leave here quickly. I don’t know what happened to Cheng Ke, so let’s find a way out first.

"Hey hey hey..."

Suddenly at this moment, a burst of laughter came from behind the big snake.

My heart tightened immediately. Did this big snake not only grow human hair, but also evolve to speak human language?

"Hello!" I said immediately, "Who's talking?"

"So many children and grandchildren have been here, that is to say, you dealt with Xiaohua very interestingly." An old voice rang out with interest: "Interesting."

Little flower?Could it be... is this big snake's name?
Sure enough, when Orochi heard the name, he showed a very wronged look, as if he wanted to find someone to act like a spoiled child.

"Who are you...?" I boldly looked behind the big snake, only to see a vague figure behind the big snake, suddenly appearing like a will-o'-the-wisp.

Could it be that animal skin cloak?

I immediately said, "You saved me? Is this fur cloak yours?"

"It's not mine." The old voice said, "I still want to ask you how you got in."

"Ah?" I wondered, who is this old man?
"Then..." I asked, "Who are you? Where is this place?"

"You don't know?" The old voice seemed puzzled: "Then how did you get here?"

"Your little flower dragged me in, sir!" I was full of tears, "Can you please show me a way out now? I don't care about your pet hurting people. There is something urgent to go out!"

"Grandpa... I'm afraid you called it wrong." The old voice said cheerfully, "I have to count the number of Zengs in front of my grandfather..."

ah?I was stunned for a moment: "This is... the ancestral hall of the Yang family?"

No, how many times have I been to the ancestral hall of the Yang family? Isn’t it the yard where the big locust tree is planted? How did it become here?
"This place is the patriarch's ancestral hall, and it is also a place to test the patriarch. Every patriarch over the years has to pass the test here in order to obtain the qualification to protect the longevity." The old voice sighed: "Unfortunately... ...Since the incident last time, no one has been here for a long time..."

I seem to... understand what's going on!
Could it be that this old man is the soul of the old man in Xiaoqiu who took over Changsheng from Shuyu, has never ascended to heaven, and stayed here to guard Changsheng?
And those patriarchs before Wei Qiancheng had to accept an assessment from here, and passed it successfully in order to obtain the qualification to protect the longevity, and the spiritual position here...

As if seeing me looking at the bonfire, the old voice said happily: "Yes, every patriarch who has protected longevity will have a spiritual seat here, and continue to guard Changsheng with the next one. This is the ancestral hall dedicated to all the patriarchs in Tanshen Town. Those that you have lit as bonfires are the spiritual seats of previous patriarchs."

"Heaven and earth conscience, I didn't order this!" My heart clenched and I shook my hands: "You can't wrong me!"

"Really." The old voice seemed to be chuckling, completely unbelievable!

It's over, the black pot is on my back again!
Having said that, I boldly guessed: "Here, it's under that deep pool..."

The reason why the deep pool is rendered so mysterious and terrifying is probably to cover up this secret.

And I fell here unintentionally. The big snake called Xiaohua should be the "guard" here. He thought I was here to take the patriarch's exam, so he dragged me here, but because of poor water quality , I almost drowned, at this time, that animal skin cloak appeared, saved my life, and left me here...

"The several families in Tanshen Town were originally a family at the beginning, and the patriarchs were selected from several surnames in rotation to guard the longevity. They were also afraid that the family would dominate and monopolize the longevity." The old man continued: "So every candidate for patriarch, in order not to shame the family, is doing their best. They have been living in peace, but who knows, they still have descendants, and they can't resist the temptation of longevity."

The qualification of guarding longevity is a manifestation of honor.

The old voice said it was Wei Qiancheng.

"However, it's very good that you have brought Changsheng back now." The old voice continued: "Now, after completing your trials, you can obtain the qualification to guard Changsheng."

"No, you misunderstood, I don't want to guard Changsheng, and I don't even want to see Changsheng when I see you in the future!" I hurriedly said: "I was just entrusted by someone to keep it for me, and I have to return it, and now Changsheng The creators of the show also appeared..."

But before I finished speaking, the bonfire suddenly became louder and brighter many times.

Many deep voices sounded together: "Let's start."

"Huh? Start what?"

"Chi...chi..." An unlucky voice came from behind...

I turned my head slightly, and saw a lot of black things, like sharp knives, coming towards me. It was a scene that wanted to pierce my heart with thousands of arrows!

Where is this right?

I groaned in my heart, screaming for a misunderstanding, and dodged those black things, "Crack..." When the black thing got closer, I realized that it was made of Yin Qi, like an arrow. Things, the difficulty of dodging, sticking to my hair and side, just passed several!
"Hope, you are a qualified patriarch, and you are qualified to protect longevity..."

"I don't want to be the patriarch at all, I'm just passing by!"

But that old voice has gone silent, and it seems that he is already planning to see how I deal with this "assessment".

I don't want to take the test at all!That animal skin cloak brought me here and disappeared by itself, could it be... on purpose?
I looked around, there was nowhere to hide!
