Chapter 58 Ancestral Hall

On the way down the mountain, Lang Xing had been thinking about a question. As a wolf monster that had not yet fully transformed, how could it sneak into a human town?

The method of transformation is not as common as imagined, and not everyone knows the corresponding detection method. Otherwise, there would not be so many monsters changing their bodies in Journey to the West, and no one would see through it. Lang Xing planned to go to Pinggu Town to find Feng Feng first.

Tonghe, if you disguise yourself and go to the capital, the risk will be much smaller.

Black Wind Mountain has high mountains and dense forests. After leaving the mountain range, the terrain becomes relatively gentle, mostly hills, with scattered villages dotted among them. Along the way, the villages are small in size, with dozens of households living together and surrounded by fences.

The wall has become a village. Most of the villages are thatched houses and wooden houses, which are very simple.

The wolf demon avoided the village and took the less traveled route. After passing through a mountain pass, he finally encountered a larger village with about a hundred households. The rocks were piled up to form the outer wall, and there was a three-story building in the center. As far as the eye could see,

Looking from a distance, there are three big characters hanging on the door of the outer wall, which is Shangma Village.

The closer to the town, the larger the village becomes. Lang Xing plans to wait until the night is quiet to sneak into Shangma Village and replace his animal skins with human clothes.

After exploring around Shangma Village, we found that not far from the village, a temple stood alone on a mountain col. Lang Xing hid his figure and slowly approached. Several villagers secretly entered the temple with incense, as if they were thieves.

Generally, you should quickly close the temple door after entering, for fear of being discovered by others.

The wolf demon was very curious, and he vaguely felt that there was something strange in this dilapidated temple. How could anyone come to offer incense near night? He knew that there should be no trouble, so he did not enter the temple, so he took a closer look around.

Turning to the back door of the temple, a miserable groan was heard. Lang Xing smelled a faint smell of blood. Several villagers who had just entered the door helped a villager holding his stomach out of the back door. When they passed by the hiding place of the wolf demon, Lang Xing looked at

It was clear that the villager's belly was wrapped in linen, and the smell of blood was mixed with the familiar scent of the wolf demon.

The scent is clearly that of wild ginseng that I often eat at home!

An endured the excitement in his heart, and Lang Xing used his earth escape technique to follow the group of villagers. "The ancestors appeared and took out the meat seeds from the second brother's belly. He only drank a sip of the fairy water, and the second brother was cured of his illness!" Supporting him!

The young man from the injured villager said to the middle-aged man walking in front of the people.

The man was over fifty years old, with two deep-set eyes, a weather-beaten face, and an indelible sadness in his words: "Every year, members of the tribe die of meat diseases. Several of the princes and I have received them."

The ancestors of our Ma family asked us in a dream that this year your second brother should not die. He will be rewarded with immortal water. From now on, he should worship his ancestors! But because of this serious disease, the number of people in the clan is getting scarce, and the village elders do not allow us to worship our ancestors' tablets in the village. This

Once it’s done, you won’t have to worry about annihilation of your race due to bad diseases anymore!”

Several villagers who followed him happily chimed in. The wrinkles on his withered face relaxed, he knocked on the outer door of the village and led the villagers in quickly.

Lang Xing has basically determined that there are definitely clues to the ginseng baby in the ruined temple!

After taking the poison given by Ling Xuzi, the old Taoist priest allowed Lang Xing enough time to go back and forth. He would never rush to the capital before making complete preparations. During this time, Ling Xuzi would help cover up the situation. If there was any

Chance to find ginseng baby...

The thought suddenly changed. The wolf demon did not follow the villagers into Shangma Village. Instead, it returned to the ruins of the temple. He thought about it for a moment. After dark, he stood outside the temple, with his hind legs slightly bent, jumped suddenly, and crossed over.

The temple wall, which is about ten feet high, enters the temple.

He stepped on a few dead leaves and made a slight landing sound, which showed the wolf demon's strong control over the body. As soon as he landed, he used the earth escape technique to hide his figure. A breeze blew by, and the temple door opened with the wind.

Lang Xing put his hand on his forehead and remained silent.

No matter how ruined the temple is, you have to close it...

No one saw it, and the wolf demon didn't feel embarrassed. There was not much space in the courtyard. There were several large locust trees planted in the courtyard. They looked like monsters with teeth and claws in the night. Accompanied by the shrill screams of night owls, the atmosphere was strange.

To the east is a wooden hall that has been in disrepair for a long time. The mottled walls are covered with dead vines and spider webs. The wolf demon can see at night. Through the window, what is enshrined in the hall is not a clay sculpture of a Buddha, but a wooden tablet. Under the tablet, there are several red tablets.

The dot is particularly conspicuous, and it must have been lit by the villagers just now when they were worshiping.

This is not a temple, but an ancestral hall!

After scanning around, there were no traces of human life in the courtyard. There was no light inside the ancestral hall. The feet were on wooden boards, and the earth escape technique failed. The wolf demon showed its figure, pushed open the hall door, and entered with its head lowered.

There is nothing unusual. Except for two pillars with peeling red paint inside the ancestral hall, there is only the tablet standing on the front platform. There is a copper stove placed on the wooden slats below the tablet. A few incense sticks are about to burn out, and there is nothing else.

things.

On the right side of the tablet is written "This hall enshrines the sacred tablet of Mafud land", and on the left side is "The incense tablet of the first ancestor of the Ma clan in the Ma family hall". In the middle, the big characters read "The true spirits of the ten directions in the heaven, earth and underworld".

As soon as the wolf demon clearly recognized the contents of the tablet, he felt a trance in front of his eyes. The surrounding scenery changed and he actually returned to his ancestral home in his previous life. The name of the tablet also changed to the word "Lang Xing"!

Just like watching a 3D movie, my mother, who has gray hair, is talking to her memorial tablet, blaming herself for her sudden death due to drinking for three years, leaving her alone and pitiful, enduring the pain of a white-haired person giving away a black-haired person. Fortunately, her employer compensated her a large sum of money.

A small amount of compensation was paid, and the younger brother gave birth to a child. The birth of a new life dissipated the sadness caused by Lang Xing's sudden death. The mother was busy looking after her grandson and talked about a lot of family matters.

Lang Xing burst into tears and felt a dull pain in his heart. He wanted to reach out and hug his mother, but it was like walking through a virtual image. He could only watch and could not get closer. The pain in his heart was even worse. Even the monster body felt weak, which made people faint.

Drowsy.

No! I have become a wolf demon, how can I return to the previous life so easily? The innate spiritual aperture shook slightly, and my mind began to clear up. I opened my eyelids, and my eyes were red, as if the illusion was shattered. I was still standing in the ancestral hall, not having it at all.

move.

A phantom with a human face appeared above the tablet. Seeing that the wolf demon was awake, he screamed and tried to shrink back into the tablet. The wolf demon hurriedly recited the mantra of asking questions. Under the shock effect, the phantom with the human face stayed stagnant for a moment until it slowed down.

God came, and the tablet was in Lang Xing's hands.

It was clearly your grimace that scared me, but you kept screaming instead! The wolf demon secretly cursed and shouted: "What the hell are you? You dare to scare me, old wolf! If you dare to move again, I will kill this piece of wood."

crumb!"

The phantom was the image of a man with a horse face, and there was a black energy rising around him. He did not dare to move. It was obvious that the tablet was an extremely important treasure to him.

"I am the land of Shangma Village. You monster, you are trying to attack the righteous god of heaven, and you will not put down my memorial tablet. Leave quickly, otherwise a thunder from the sky will strike down and your soul will be driven away!"

fly.

"You, a ghost who has not yet condensed into a solid body, dare to talk so brazenly about the God of Heaven. The long night is long, I have no intention of sleeping, and I am short of firewood to make a fire for cooking. I think this tablet can keep me burning for half an hour."

The flames danced on the wolf demon's fingertips when he pinched the fire trigger. The darkness in the ancestral hall receded, and a demon and a ghost were confronting each other.

As the memorial tablet got closer and closer to the flames, the ghostly face kept twisting and deforming as if being roasted by fire. He let out a scream and rushed towards Lang Xing! Killing the ghostly face was not the fundamental purpose of the wolf demon. He turned into a wolf claw and waved.

Looking forward, the grimace is invisible and the wolf's claws pass through it without being affected at all.

Ghost Face rushed in front of the wolf demon, looked at each other, and stood motionless. After a moment, Ghost Face screamed again, and the surrounding black fog dissipated. Ghost Face's features were somewhat blurred, and a look of panic could still be seen.

"Why are you not affected by my ghost eyes? Your soul is so messed up that you haven't gone crazy yet?" Lang Xing's soul came from his previous life. In the Internet age, he has been exposed to hundreds of millions of information, and all the information fragments are buried deep in his soul.

Ghostface entered hastily, and was almost distracted by the too complicated information. He did not see the content of the wolf demon fantasy. At this time, in Ghostface's mind, the wolf demon in front of him was a monster beyond recognition!

"The only way you can use it is to confuse me into an illusion? If the tablet is destroyed, I'm afraid you will lose your soul!" A corner of the tablet has entered the flames and was immediately burned to black. The grimace no longer resisted and quickly begged: "Don't burn it.

Damn it! You wolf monster, I gave you some advantages and let you go, but you are still not satisfied and bully me again and again! What on earth did you do?"

Lang Xing chuckled, threw the memorial tablet on the ground, used it as a bench, and sat down. He didn't care that the black mist around his grimace was almost green, and asked with a smile: "Who are you? What are your intentions in hiding in this ancestral hall?"

"I'm not a thing! This ancestral hall is my home. I am the ancestor of the Ma family in Ma Village here, and I practice in the ancestral hall." Ghostface replied angrily.

"Well, you are indeed not a thing. Where did the immortal water that you just saved people come from?" The wolf demon chuckled secretly and then asked. Hearing the wolf demon ask about the immortal water with a grimace, he was very surprised. Just when he was about to deny it, the wolf demon asked

I sat down hard, the tablet creaked, and my face trembled with fright.

"Grandpa, don't sit down! Don't sit down! That fairy water is brewed with elixir. I have been practicing here for more than a hundred years. A few days ago, a child spent the night in my hall. I saw that he had a handsome appearance, and I wanted to charm his mind.

, made a physical body. I didn’t expect that he had no flesh and blood at all. He escaped from the illusion. I only had time to tear off his arm, and he fled outside the courtyard. He jumped into the soil and disappeared like a fish swimming into water. The torn off arm turned into a

I made a cut of wild ginseng, and the medicinal fragrance was overflowing. I was afraid of causing trouble, so I soaked the wild ginseng in a vat and used it to treat diseases of my children and grandchildren."

"For my sincere heart for future generations, how about I send you the ginseng, return the tablet to me, and leave here?"

"Okay! Where is the wild ginseng? Give it to me quickly, and I will give you this piece of wood!" The wolf demon followed what the ghost face said and turned the copper furnace on the table. The wooden board in front of the table moved to one side, revealing a stone

Urn, hold the tablet with one hand, and take out the stone urn with the other hand.

The stone urn, which was as big as a wine jar, had an ordinary appearance. As soon as it was opened, a strong aroma of medicine came out. The wolf demon took two strong sips and quickly covered the mouth of the urn. The piece of wild ginseng in the urn, which was half the size of a child's arm, was exactly
Chapter completed!
