Chapter 2343 The jade card of the ancestors of the Xiao family
The ancestral land of the Xiao family is actually a cemetery, where ancestors of the Xiao family are buried.
In addition, in the deepest part of these cemeteries, there is an ancestral hall, which is the place where spiritual tablets of ancestors of the Xiao family are enshrined, and it is also the place where the Xiao family worships their ancestors every year.
"Master Qin, please come with me."
Xiao Feng led Qin Yu into the Xiao family's ancestral hall. As the only remaining legendary grandmaster of the Xiao family and the highest-ranking person in the Xiao family, Xiao Feng is naturally qualified to lead people into the ancestral hall, not to mention that this person is not
The other person was Qin Yu, who was very kind to the Xiao family.
Entering the Xiao Family Ancestral Hall, the first thing that caught Qin Yu's eyes was the rows of spiritual tablets, densely packed with thousands of them.
"Grandmaster Xiao, wait a moment."
After Qin Yu signaled Xiao Feng to wait, he walked to the side and picked up the three incense sticks placed aside, lit them, and then worshiped three times at the memorial tablets of the ancestors of the Xiao family.
The ancestral temple is a quiet place. If there are no spiritual tablets enshrined, that's okay. If there are, then entering the ancestral temple is quite disturbing others' peace. According to the rules, you must offer incense to express your apology.
After the incense was finished, Qin Yu signaled Xiao Feng to lead the way, and Xiao Feng led Qin Yu directly through the spiritual tablets and came to the back of the ancestral temple, where there was a wooden door.
"Master Qin, all the jade plaques of my Xiao family are placed behind this wooden door. I think the secret of the jade plaques can only be found here."
Qin Yu said nothing. The jade plaque, which is so important to the Xiao family, was placed so obviously behind the wooden door. Maybe others would be surprised, but Qin Yu's expression was very calm.
Because, before entering the ancestral temple, he sensed the existence of dozens of formations. These formations were connected one after another, forming a chain formation, and the center of this chain formation was this wooden door.
Therefore, even though the wooden door is in a very conspicuous location and there are no guards, if someone breaks in here, this set of chain formations will be activated immediately, and the Xiao family will be discovered in a few seconds.
Not to mention that there is an attack formation in this chain formation.
"Master Qin, please!"
Pushing the wooden door open, Xiao Feng invited Qin Yu in.
Behind the wooden door is a stone room. The space is not large, only about 300 square meters. However, after Qin Yu stepped into the wooden door, he was immediately attracted by the stone pillars inside the wooden door.
One meter high stone pillars, each with a jade tablet placed on top, and various rune patterns carved on the surface of the stone pillars.
"Master Qin, there are a total of 366 stone pillars here, which means there are 366 jade tablets. After the death of the Xiao family in the past, the jade tablets will be put back here and then passed on to the next clan member.
.”
Xiao Feng began to introduce to Qin Yu the situation in the stone room.
"Because there are only three hundred and sixty-six jade tablets, jade tablets are extremely precious even in the Xiao family. In fact, not every Xiao family member has a jade tablet. Only members of the direct lineage can own jade tablets. As for the
For collateral lines, only those who have cultivated to a certain level or made certain contributions to the family will have the opportunity to obtain the jade medal."
Qin Yu can understand Xiao Feng's words, because with the current status of the Xiao family, there may be no less than a hundred direct line members, let alone collateral lines. Three hundred and sixty-six jade tablets are definitely not enough.
.
"Master Qin, in fact, outsiders only think that this jade plaque is the status symbol of our Xiao family, but they don't know that the jade plaque of my Xiao family is not that simple."
Xiao Feng's expression became serious. If the Xiao family's jade medal was just a symbol of status, then the collateral members of the Xiao family would not want the jade medal so much.
"The jade tablets of our Xiao family, in addition to being a symbol of status, also have another more important function, that is, they can be used to communicate the strength of our ancestors and to warm and nourish the souls."
The Xiao family jade medal is far from being as simple as outsiders imagine, but the secret of the Xiao family jade medal is known only to the Xiao family who have obtained the jade medal.
"As for the origin of these jade plaques, I'm afraid only the ancestors of our Xiao family know it. Master Qin, please follow me."
Xiao Feng led Qin Yu to continue walking forward, and finally came to the last stone pillar. There was also a jade plaque placed on this stone pillar.
"Master Qin, this is the original jade plaque of the ancestors of our Xiao family. The jade plaques will be passed down after the death of other members of my Xiao family, but the jade plaques of our ancestors have always been preserved here."
As the ancestor of the Xiao family, his status in the Xiao family is naturally extremely high. No one dares to use the ancestor's jade plaque, so it has been placed on this stone pillar until now.
Hearing Xiao Feng's words, Qin Yu looked at the jade plaque on the stone pillar. There was no difference in size or shape between that jade plaque and other jade plaques in the Xiao family. The only difference was the brightness of the jade plaque.
Much higher than other jade cards.
After noticing for a while, Qin Yu walked up to the stone pillar and reached out to touch the jade plaque on the stone pillar. There was a hint of shock in his eyes.
"This is the original jade plaque of our ancestors of the Xiao family. No one has touched it for so many years." Xiao Feng saw the surprise on Qin Yu's face and explained.
"No one in your Xiao family has touched this jade token?" Qin Yu asked Xiao Feng with a strange look on his face.
"No."
Xiao Feng shook his head, "Ever since our ancestors passed away, this jade tablet has been placed on this stone pillar, and no one has ever touched it."
"No wonder." Qin Yu's face showed a look of sudden realization.
"Master Qin, did you discover something?"
"It's not like I discovered anything, you can see for yourself."
Qin Yu grabbed the jade token and threw it into the air the next moment. Qin Yu's action shocked Xiao Feng, and he subconsciously reached out to catch it, but
, but was stopped by Qin Yu.
"Don't be anxious, watch carefully."
Qin Yu stopped Xiao Feng and looked at the jade token thrown high into the sky. However, Xiao Feng hesitated for a moment after Qin Yu's words came out. It was this moment of hesitation that something happened to the jade token.
The jade tablet in the air suddenly emitted a bright light, which illuminated the entire secret room. At the same time, on the stone pillars, the remaining dozens of jade tablets responded one after another, and also shot the light towards the Xiao family.
Above the jade plaque of our ancestors.
Rays of light converged, and the light emitted by the jade tablet slowly converged into a light curtain. In the light curtain, a figure vaguely appeared in front of Qin Yu and Xiao Feng.
Seeing this figure, Xiao Feng's face showed shock and disbelief.
