"Only 20 points? It's a little too little…"
Xu Mo was slightly disappointed. It seemed that the accumulation of incense was more difficult than he had expected.
Ding! Received offerings from descendants. Obtained 18 incense points.
Then, he heard another notification. Xu Chenghe had also contributed a wave of Joss Flames.
After the two of them paid their respects, they stood up and planned to leave.
Just as Xu Chengshan's eyes inadvertently swept across the tablets of his ancestors, he suddenly realized," The memorial tablet of the ancestor at the top seemed to tremble slightly!!
Xu Chengshan couldn't help but stare at Xu Mo's memorial tablet in astonishment.
Xu Chenghe noticed Xu Chengshan's reaction and asked in confusion,""Big brother, what's wrong?"
Xu Chengshan retracted his gaze and shook his head slightly.""Nothing…Let's go."
The two of them walked out of the ancestral hall. Xu Chengshan said,""Tomorrow, let everyone come home to worship their ancestors.”
Xu Chenghe was slightly stunned.”
Xu Chengshan nodded.”
Although he still didn't know what was going on with the golden light, he would rather believe it than not. Besides, the birth of the first child of the Xu family's new generation was a big event, so it was only right to worship the ancestors.
In the ancestral hall, Xu Mo nodded in satisfaction after hearing their conversation.
It seemed that he would be able to harvest a large wave of incense offerings tomorrow.
……
Late at night, in the dense forest behind the Xu Manor.
Next to a small lake in the forest, a series of banging sounds could be heard. Under the moonlight, a figure was under a big tree, constantly punching the big tree.
Wood splinters flew everywhere, and a huge dent had been made in the tree. However, the fists were also covered in blood, but the owner of the fists did not seem to care.
The other trees in the surroundings were also filled with various signs of damage, indicating that this had been going on for a long time.
Finally, when a dark cloud drifted away from the sky and the moonlight became bright, the figure stopped and looked up at the sky. The moonlight shone on a young man's face covered in sweat.
The young man wiped the sweat from his forehead and muttered,""Time to go back…"
When the young man was halfway back, he suddenly saw a lantern in front of him. A small figure holding a lantern was walking towards her.
The other party had also noticed him and immediately quickened his pace. At the same time, a clear and pleasant voice sounded."Young Master Lin Yan!"
As the lantern approached, a beautiful girl of about fifteen or sixteen years old wearing the clothes of a servant girl of the Xu Manor could be seen clearly. She had big eyes and an oval face, and was delicate and obedient.
Xu Linyan smiled and said,"Green Bamboo, why are you here?"
The maid Lü Zhu's pretty face was slightly red. It was unknown whether it was because she was tired from the journey or because she was excited. She said happily,"Young Master Lin Yan! Young Madam Shu Ya gave birth!"
Xu Linyan was stunned for a moment, then he was delighted."Sister-in-law gave birth? How was it? Are you safe?"
"Yes, yes!" Green Bamboo nodded. Mother and son are safe! I took a look. The little young master is very cute!”
"A nephew?" Xu Linyan's eyes lit up." That's good! Let's go! Let's go back!"
The two of them walked back side by side. Xu Linyan even reached out to take the lantern.
When Green Bamboo saw the blood on his hand, she could not help but feel sorry for him."Young Master, your hand is injured again!”
"It's fine," Xu Linyan said nonchalantly.”
Lu Zhu seemed to be used to it. She took out a small porcelain bottle from her pocket and poured out a little milky white ointment. Then, she helped Xu Linyan apply it on the wound on his hand.
It was just a superficial wound. If he used this special ointment, he would recover in a night.
However, because of this, she had to do this almost every day. Every time, Lu Zhu's heart ached.
Lu Zhu knew that Young Master Lin Yan was unwilling to give up, so he trained his body so hard every day. However, Young Master Lin Yan's dantian had already been shattered, and he could no longer accumulate True Qi. No matter how much he trained, it was at most just pure physical training. Even the effect was much worse than that of ordinary people.
The heavens were really unfair. Young Master Lin Yan had been working so hard all this time, so why did he have to suffer so much…
"Green Bamboo, what's wrong? Is there something on your mind?"
Xu Linyan's voice suddenly sounded, causing Lu Zhu to come back to her senses. She hurriedly said,"What? No…no…"
As she spoke, she gently blew on Xu Linyan's left hand, which had already been applied with medicine. Then, she went around to the other side and continued to apply medicine on his right hand. As she applied it, she said,"By the way, Young Master Lin Yan, something strange happened when the young master was born!”
"Oh?" Xu Linyan asked curiously. What strange things?"
"When the young master was born, something seemed to have fallen from the sky! Old Master said that it was a good omen…but then something happened. Old Master said that someone wanted to harm Little Master! Later on…there was a golden light flying out from the ancestral hall. We all saw it! After that, Grandpa said that everything was fine…Everyone said that this was the manifestation of their ancestors!!”
Green Bamboo beamed with joy as she recounted what had happened in the Xu Manor. Actually, she didn't know much and was just shocked.
"There's such a thing?"
Xu Linyan's eyes flashed slightly, and his expression was slightly solemn. He felt that things were not as simple as they seemed.
Fortunately, it was a close call, and his nephew was fine…
He hoped that his little nephew could grow up healthily and bring the Xu family to greater heights, completing what he had failed to do…
In addition,
Was it the blessing of the ancestors?
Xu Linyan looked down at his hands and smiled bitterly.
If I really had the protection of my ancestors, how could I end up in such a miserable state…
