cloudy day

Chapter 503
But when I squeezed into the crowd, I saw local operas and traditional entertainment programs being performed on the stage, which seemed nothing unusual.

In front of the stage, there were three rows of seats, all of whom were old men and old ladies. I saw that the village chief was sitting in the rightmost position in the third row.

Except for these three rows of seats, the other onlookers were all standing. It seemed that this seat was reserved for the respectable members of the Gui family.

"Half of them are the seniors of Guizimen, and the few sitting in the front row are also elders of the clan..." A clear and pleasant voice suddenly came to my ears, and I looked back in surprise, it turned out to be The girl about my age I met in the old house during the day.

"You... are you?"

The girl smiled slightly and said to me: "My name is Gui Linglong, and I am the great-granddaughter of the patriarch."

"Then you are..."

"That's right, we're all the same. Your name is Zhao Changsheng, right? I'm the same age as you, but a few months younger than you." Gui Linglong said with a smile.

"Yes, I am Zhao Changsheng. Hello, Linglong." I said politely.

But Gui Linglong is not as slow-minded as I am. She is very warm to me, she is a familiar person, and she pointed to those people in the front row to help me introduce them one by one: "Brother Changsheng, do you see me in the corner of the stage?" Is that person standing? That person is my father, Gui Wencheng, the next head of our Gui clan, and the person sitting in the front row is Guizimen..."

Her personality is very cheerful and playful, but I sighed in my heart. Once it passes, this cute and beautiful girl in front of me will become a wrinkled old woman...

For a young girl in bloom, this kind of fate is very cruel. Perhaps from another point of view, she will die as soon as she passes.

Soon after, it was completely dark, and the performance on this stage came to an end.But the strange thing is that before Ghost Wencheng announced the end of the stage, the other villagers dispersed one after another, and their faces looked a little unnatural.

On the stage, Gui Wencheng, the next patriarch of the Gui clan, said that to allow members of the Gui clan to enter the Ghost Ancestral Temple, the real sacrifices will be held in front of the Ghost Ancestor Temple, while non-Gui clan members are not allowed to enter.

I can probably guess what the next program will be. The ghost mother-in-law who hasn't appeared since the beginning should appear.

When the ordinary villagers in the village had almost left, the remaining one hundred or so people entered the Ghost Ancestral Temple one after another.Gui Linglong next to me tugged at my sleeve at this moment, wanting me to go with me too, but I hesitated a little...

"Linglong, you go first, I'm not used to that kind of scene, I'd better go to get some fresh air and come back later." I said with a wry smile.

"I can understand you. Alas, the first time I saw this sacrifice, I had nightmares all night when I got home, but after seeing it a dozen times, the feeling is not so strong. Brother Changsheng, see you later , I'll go first." Gui Linglong smiled at me, turned around and walked into the Ghost Ancestral Temple.

Seeing Gui Linglong's disappearing figure, I let out a long sigh of relief, and then I'm going to be nervous, because I'm going to the forbidden area of ​​the Gui clan, Houshan!
This is an excellent timing. On the seventh day of the first lunar month, all the members of the Ghost Clan gathered in front of the Ghost Ancestor Hall. Naturally, the guards on the back mountain would relax.

I'm not sure if the mountain guard in the cabin is still there, but if I don't take a gamble, I will lose the best chance of finding the entrance to the Elysium!
