Cultivation, endless reincarnation

Chapter 44 Ancestral Hall Ceremony
"Didn't it say that Brother Fourteen would be the patriarch in the future?"

Zhao Yongwen pointed to the direction of the Weishan Palace, and after being beaten by Zhao Yongqi, she immediately lowered her voice a little, and said timidly: "Isn't it the elder brother of the patriarch?"

"Don't call me that in the future."

Zhao Yongqi couldn't laugh or cry.

The current patriarch hasn't left yet, so you just change your mouth and let Zhao Shouyan hear what it feels like in your heart.

It is said that people take tea to cool down.

Before the man left, the tea went cold.

It's nothing serious for Zhao Yongwen to wait for him.

Just because I haven't seen him for a few days and wanted to play with him, Zhao Yongqi drove her back to practice after a few perfunctory words.

ten days later.

Zhao Family Ancestral Hall.

Many monks from the Zhao family gathered together again.

this time.

It is to officially finalize the position of the three generations of patriarchs.

"The sky is above, and the thick soil is below."

"The first ancestor Taizong was founded in Luo, and the second ancestor Yanzong was rooted in Weishan. It has been passed down for a hundred years, and the Weishan Zhao family has grown stronger."

"Through this, the Huifeng is peaceful, the clouds are bright and the clouds are steaming; look up to the ancestors, remember the ancestor's merits, and set the position of the patriarch of the three generations"

The solemn and solemn voice spread throughout the ancestral hall.

It even spread faintly throughout Weishan.

It is Zhao Deguang, the great elder who has just returned from Weishan, who is in charge of the libretto.

He exists in the same generation as the third elder, but his voice and appearance are like that of a middle-aged man, without any signs of aging, and his square face is full of rigidity and seriousness.

In his hand is a brocade scroll made of fine silk.

Reading the words on the scroll meticulously, Lang Lang's voice wafted into the ears of every monk present.

No matter what these monks think in their hearts.

At least on the surface, they were all sullen and motionless, quietly listening to the Great Elder's libretto, and anyone could feel the solemnity of the ceremony.

"Next, ask the three generations of patriarchs to burn incense on their hands."

The voice of the great elder fell.

Immediately, two "Golden Boys and Jade Girls" came to Zhao Yongqi, each carrying a delicate tray with a basin of clear water and three thick Zen incense sticks on it.

The "Jade Girl" among them is Zhao Yongwen.

Affected by the quiet atmosphere at the moment, she lost her former vivacity, did not dare to look left and right at all, her small face turned slightly pale, and honestly brought the tray in front of Zhao Yongqi.

Zhao Yongqi is wearing a large robe with gold patterns on a white background, and a luxurious purple-gold crown facing the sky; the robe is patterned with vivid and rare animals, and the sun, moon and stars are dotted around the robe.

This is a dress that is only worn for major ceremonies.

He washed his hands in water.

Then he wiped off the water drops on his hands with a white towel next to him, picked up the three Zen incense sticks from a tray held by another boy, and finally came to the altar of the ancestral tablet, and respectfully offered the three Zen incense sticks .

Then bow with a big gift.

When Zhao Yongqi did all this, there was an inexplicable strangeness in his heart.

Is this worshiping yourself?

Wait until the process is complete.

Zhao Shouyan walked up to Zhao Yongqi, and glanced at everyone present: "From today onwards, Zhao Yongqi is the third generation patriarch of our Zhao family, you should treat the third generation patriarch the same way you treat me, if you neglect or despise, you will be treated as the Zhao family patriarch." regulations."

He said sharply, "Do you understand?"

"understand!"

"Meet the three generations of patriarchs!"

Following Zhao Shouyan's words.

On behalf of Zhao Yongqi, he officially took over the right to helm the Zhao family from him.

of course.

It was after Zhao Shouyan left the Zhao family.

speak up.

If it is an entry-level clan that changes the patriarch or head, it needs to invite a higher-ranking clan to witness, but the Zhao family in Weishan is a non-ranking family, so this cumbersome step can be omitted.

And Zhao Yongqi felt the scene in front of him, watching the monks of the Zhao family salute him respectfully, he couldn't help feeling a strange feeling in his heart.

In essence.

Zhao Yongqi is a person who puts interests first and does whatever it takes to achieve his goals.

before today.

What Zhao Yongqi thinks is always his own gains and losses. Even if he inherits the position of patriarch and decides to carry forward the Zhao family, in the final analysis it is for his own future. The Zhao family is just a tool for him to pursue immortality.

But looking at the monks of the Zhao family who saluted him in front of him.

He was really touched in his heart.

perhaps
While pursuing the immortal way, it is also a clear conscience to be able to give those who follow me a brighter future.

of course.

This touch is only a faint flash.

"Everyone happens to be here today, so there's no need to go to the Weishan Palace. There's something to discuss here."

After everyone saw the ceremony, Zhao Shouyan did not let them go.

Instead, the conversation changed.

Let's talk about another thing.

"I think everyone has heard the rumor recently that our Zhao family in Weishan may move to the southern border, where we can directly be promoted to the ninth-rank family. I would like to take this opportunity to hear everyone's opinions."

Paused.

Zhao Shouyan suddenly remembered something.

Then he said: "Some people may not know where the southern border is. Let me give you a brief introduction. The area we live in is called the Wanguo Plain, and the southern border is in the south of the Wanguo Plain. There."

Follow Zhao Shouyan to explain slowly.

The dangers of moving the southern border to the wild, the reason why the Zhao family moved to southern border, and the benefits the Zhao family will get in southern border, etc.

Explain one by one to the monks of the Zhao family.

From the reactions of the monks present, Zhao Yongqi could clearly see their tendency.

Those with an adventurous mentality showed an eager look on their faces, and were not intimidated by the dangers in southern Xinjiang at all; there were more like the third elders who preferred a peaceful and stable life, and they showed worried looks.

Listen to what Zhao Shouyan said.

There are foundation-building spirits everywhere.

Every now and then, a certain family and sect would be wiped out.

It's okay to let them not worry.

Although the monks of the Zhao family had their own thoughts and looked at each other, no one said anything directly, but looked at the four elders of the Zhao family.

In this situation.

Usually the elders speak first.

Great Elder Zhao Deguang was wandering in the sky, wondering what he was thinking, and he obviously didn't intend to express any opinions, probably because he had communicated with Zhao Shouyan in private a long time ago.

The second elder and the fourth elder looked at each other.

Then they looked at the third elder Zhao Deqing together.

"Well, I still have to be the bad guy."

The third elder sighed inwardly, took a step forward, and asked: "Patriarch, I don't know what the regulations are for our Zhao family to move to the southern border, when will we start to leave, and can we leave some seeds in Luo Kingdom to prevent accidents."

The third elder understands.

Since Zhao Shouyan raised this matter at this time.

It showed that he had already made a decision in his heart. After his confrontation with Zhao Shouyan in the Weishan Palace last time, he also knew that any opposition would be futile.

Be smart this time.

He didn't say anything against the language anymore, to see if he could leave some flames for the Zhao family as much as possible.
