The location of Huangxian Ancestral Hall is not on the route into the mountain, but on another branch road. The fork in the road is not far from where they parked their car.
Normally Huang Xian Ancestral Hall does not accept outsiders, but now that the blessing ceremony will be held soon, outsiders can go around.
Liu Xinru and Liu Jinxin put all their unused things back into the car, even leaving their big backpacks behind. They took their digital cameras, and under the leadership of Zhu Zhu, walked lightly to the Huangxian Ancestral Hall.
This path is even more difficult to walk on. It winds left and right, going up and down. The narrowest part can only accommodate two people walking side by side. Cars will definitely not be able to pass it, and it will not be easy for people to walk on it.
Fortunately, the distance was not far, only two or three miles, and Liu Xinru was not really a frail urban white-collar woman. It didn't take the three of them long to pass through a forest between two mountains and arrive at the mountain col.<
/p>
"We call this forest the 'Mysterious Forest'. It is said to have been cast by Huang Xian with a spell, and it is guarded at the entrance of Huang Xian Ancestral Hall. Only pious people can pass through the forest and continue moving forward." Zhu Zhu introduced mysteriously.
Tao.
Liu Xinru pretended to be surprised and asked: "What will happen if people don't believe this, or get lost and walk into the woods? If they can't get out, will they die in the woods in the end?"
After hearing this, Zhuzhu waved his hands repeatedly, "How could that be? Huang Xian is compassionate, so why would he hurt people casually? The Lost Forest is just a warning. If you keep walking, you will go back to the outside of the forest. Naturally, you can find other places.
Road."
Liu Jinxin was silent on the side, and when he heard this, he knew something in his heart, this forest should have been set up with a magic array.
When Gao Xingyu, Zong Han, Qiao Sanshi and others were chatting, they talked about the so-called lost forest, lost soul road and other similar things in the secular world, which are commonly known as "ghosts building walls". In fact, most of them are various illusions arranged by cultivators.
The formation is used to prevent ordinary people from entering by mistake.
If this is the case, even though the forest is not big, if you don't know the formation, even a hundred and eighty people may not be able to get through.
Guanyi Health Center also has a similar formation. Although it is not usually turned on, when Gao Xingyu was testing the formation, he once let Han Xiangzhong, Liu Jinxin and Xiao Yaqi enter and experience it to increase their experience.
Therefore, Liu Jinxin was not unfamiliar with the Magic Formation. But when he walked in the Lost Forest, he had no similar feeling.
However, he soon felt relieved.
Not far in front of them, they found a family of five people, old and young, holding incense and candle offerings in their hands. They looked like pilgrims going to the Huangxian Ancestral Hall to offer incense.
Only then did Liu Jinxin realize that it was almost time for the blessing ceremony, and a large number of guests would be welcomed here. Not only were there pilgrims, but the three consecutive days of large gatherings in Changgu Town would also bring people here.
Many curious tourists.
This is the best time for the Huang Xiaoxian sect to increase its popularity and collect incense and the power of faith. How can it activate the formation and shut out everyone?
The three people quickly passed the family and passed through the Lost Forest smoothly. Suddenly, their eyes suddenly opened up, and a large green meadow appeared in front of them.
This is a mountain col, surrounded by mountains on three sides, with a relatively large meadow in the middle. The sunny and shady slopes of the mountains on both sides are relatively gentle, but the mountain directly in front is very steep.
There are tall and short trees everywhere around the meadow, and there are a lot of wild deer looming among them.
There are many low shrubs growing in the east and west clusters of the meadow, and hares of various colors can be seen from time to time. At the end of the meadow is the Huangxian Ancestral Hall.
Huang Xian Ancestral Hall has a history of hundreds of years and has undergone many renovations and reconstructions before it gradually took on its current appearance.
The ancestral hall occupies a large area and is backed by a mountain. An undulating rough stone wall surrounds the ancestral hall.
The three of them walked through the soft grass and came to the gate of Huangxian Ancestral Hall. At this time, the middle door of the ancestral hall was wide open, and many figures could be vaguely seen shaking inside.
After entering the gate, you will find the foyer within a few steps. There are several tables here and several people are talking there.
Zhu Zhu quickly introduced: "This is the registration office. Guests can choose whether to register or not. If you want to stay here tonight, you must register so that they can arrange beds for the guests, as well as dinner and breakfast for tomorrow.
There are also incense and candle offerings for sale here, and the price is only slightly more expensive than those sold in town, but it is more convenient since customers don’t need to bring them all the way here.”
"Can I stay here?" Liu Jinxin's heart moved and he couldn't help but ask Zhuzi for the first time.
"Usually we don't receive guests here. But isn't there a Dharma ceremony tomorrow? Some pilgrims are very pious and will stay a few days in advance and fast and take a bath.
Therefore, before the Wong Siu Sin sect holds a blessing ceremony every year, the ancestral hall will be opened three days in advance, and pilgrims are specially allowed to stay here overnight."
Before Liu Jinxin could speak, Liu Xinru rushed to ask: "Are there any requirements for staying here? How much does it cost?"
Zhuzhu replied: "There is no charge here, but only pilgrims are allowed to stay overnight. Ordinary tourists can only go back to the town to spend the night.
Pilgrims who have been here before can register directly. Pilgrims who come here for the first time must first pay homage to the statue and can register to stay overnight after being approved."
He glanced at Liu Xinru and Liu Jinxin, then looked around, and then whispered: "You have a car. If you want to come, you should drive here tomorrow morning.
Here in the wilderness, the food and accommodation conditions are not good. We live in two large shops separated by men and women, and the food we eat is boiled vegetables and whole grain porridge. You city people may not be used to it."
Liu Xinru said with a smile: "I'm just asking. Although I am a woman, I am not happy with meat and I really don't like vegetarian food. If I were asked to stay here and be vegetarian, I would rather go back and forth."
As she said that, she glanced at Liu Jinxin intentionally or unintentionally.
After several years of cooperation with Liu Xinru, Liu Jinxin knew that Liu Xinru was hinting to him not to rashly propose staying overnight.
Liu Jinxin was just tempted, but this is the home of evil cultivators, and there are many people who are stronger than Liu Jinxin.
Liu Jinxin relies on the fact that body cultivation is relatively rare and not easy to be discovered, so he can approach those incense practitioners appropriately.
But if he takes the initiative to sneak into someone's home on the eve of such an important day as the blessing ceremony, it would be a trick to commit suicide. Do you really think that others can't find out his identity?
Besides, that worshiping statues and stuff doesn’t sound like a serious routine. Maybe there’s something else in there.
Liu Jinxin learned from Gao Xingyu that cultivators have some strange spells and treasures, mainly targeting the human soul, consciousness and sea of consciousness.
Liu Jinxin is very self-aware. He does not think that his own ability can withstand the inspection of these things. His own safety is not important, but it cannot affect the entire operation.
Liu Xinru was relieved when she saw that Liu Jinxin didn't express any objection. She didn't want Liu Jinxin to die.
