Chapter 21 Heaven's Pride
He stepped forward and grabbed Jun Yuanjiu's clothes, his expression twisted and he kept cursing.

"Wucai Town hates those who are treacherous."

"You accepted my love and abandoned it like worn out shoes. You will be punished by God!"

Everyone Jun Yuanjiu had come into contact with throughout his life was respectful and courteous to him, and the woman was even more knowledgeable and sensible. Now that he was facing a madman at close range, he began to feel frightened.

Several servants behind her hurriedly pulled Qiuniang away, but Qiuniang was as crazy as a demon.

A Xiao was stunned.

Then he looked at Jun Yuanjiu holding himself there, his face flushed and at a loss.

After holding it in for a long time, Jun Yuanjiu waved his hands and opened his mouth, "Misunderstanding!"

When he raised his hand, a black lantern pattern on his wrist was slowly growing.

Jun Yuanjiu opened his mouth and immediately reached out to wipe it. Why couldn't the pattern be wiped off?

As a result, the people who were watching by the river also gathered around and stared at the nine statues of A Xiao and Jun Yuan, looking at the enemy.

The lively crowd also fell silent, but the look in his eyes made people feel numb.

A Xiao vaguely felt that something was wrong. Looking at this small town now, it was full of strange atmosphere.

Suddenly, a young girl came forward with a wooden stick in her hand, and the wooden stick made a clicking sound on the ground.

A Xiao looked over and saw that she was a blind girl. The girl was dressed in plain clothes and her face was pale. She stepped forward and said, "Accepting a lantern during the Flower Picking Festival means that you are willing to get married. In the evening, both parties will put the lantern into the water in a small boat, and the contract will be concluded." "

A Xiao grasped the meaning of the words: "They didn't put out the lanterns."

The girl nodded, staring at Jun Yuanjiu with empty eyes, as if she could see people, and continued, "There is an ancestral hall ten miles west of the town. If you want to cancel the promise, you two need to go over and help, and the curse will be lifted."

After saying that, the girl turned around and walked away holding the stick.

But the people didn't react at all to the girl's appearance.

Axiao pouted, she originally came to watch the fun, but it turned out that she had offended a group of ignorant humans.

Jun Yuanjiu was protected behind him by his servants.

The onlookers stepped forward to catch the two of them, but Jun Yuanjiu thought he was in trouble and hid behind him with a grimace.

A Xiao stepped forward, grabbed him, and with all her strength, she stepped on the head and quickly moved away from the river.

"Hurry up and cancel that promise, don't you see these people want to eat you!"

The remaining servants were all caught by the people, and they all glared at the two people who escaped.

Jun Yuanjiu shouted, "I'm going to the ancestral hall and I'll be back soon."

The people couldn't catch up with A Xiao, so A Xiao took Jun Yuanjiu's collar and flew high, and soon arrived at the ancestral hall outside the town.

It was already dark at this time.

Standing at the door of the ancestral hall, both of them were dumbfounded.

Because this ancestral hall is really dilapidated.

The plaque broke and fell to the ground. There were overgrown weeds around it. The only sound was the wind and the two breathing.

It was dilapidated and looked like no one had used it for many years. The door was broken on one side and had a thick layer of spider webs.

A Xiao picked up a wooden branch and pushed away the spider web, signaling Jun Yuanjiu to follow.

As a result, Jun Yuanjiu looked inside with disgust.

Since I was a child, I have never been to such a shabby and dirty place.

He stood at the door and refused to go in. He looked around and said, "Wucai Town looks quite prosperous. How could the ancestral hall be so dilapidated? We must have come in the wrong place. Otherwise, let's go back."

Axiao didn't have the slightest patience. He walked forward and raised his head and said, "You have caused trouble for me and you are still hurting me. If you don't go, then I will go back. But you probably won't be able to leave and will have to stay and marry that lunatic."

Jun Yuanjiu suppressed his expression, looked at the black pattern on his wrist that had spread all over his arm, and silently followed A Xiao into the ancestral hall.

Outside the ancestral hall is a small courtyard, and walking inside is a large incense area.

The ancestral hall in Wucai Town enshrines family elders from past generations. There are many rankings in it, but now they have all been knocked to the ground.

Jun Yuanjiu had been extremely protected since he was a child, but he also took a peek at Leng Gong's appearance when he was a child.At that time, he felt that Leng Gong was really scary, but this night, when he arrived at this ancestral hall, he felt a chill in his heart, which was even scarier than Leng Gong.

A Xiao felt very strange in her heart.

Finally, he pinched his eyes with a single finger, and a pair of golden pupils swept across the interior of the ancestral hall.

After Jun Yuanjiu saw A Xiao's golden eyes, he was so shocked that he couldn't speak for a long time.

His master once said that only a Taoist immortal can use the golden eye technique that can defeat everything.

Could it be that this pretty girl is a fairy?
But how could he meet the immortal? Could it be because he is a century-old genius and the reincarnation of a god, so he always has noble people to help him.

The more Jun Yuanjiu thought about it, the more it made sense. After all, any trouble he encountered since childhood would always be solved quickly and smoothly.

And now it must be because God knew that he would be in trouble when he came to Wucai Town to investigate the case, so he sent A Xiao to help.

With this thought, he straightened his chest and stepped forward to look around.

Finally, he stood there and said, "That blind girl can't lie to us. This place is so deserted. What on earth do you want us to do?"

A Xiao withdrew her golden eyes. It was very peaceful here, without even a trace of resentment.

But it's not normal at all.

Because this is a place where rankings are enshrined, even if these people are good people all their lives, it is impossible for them not to have any resentment at all.

Axiao stepped forward. In front of him was a table with items.

Because no one has been here for many years, there is a thick layer of dust on the table.

One of the unfinished tablets caught her attention.

She picked it up and dusted it away.

"Hu Zhixu brand."

The words on the tablet are only half engraved.

This tablet is obviously newer than other materials.

A Xiao thought for a moment, took the tablet and the carving knife that fell on the ground and walked in front of Jun Yuanjiu.

"Finish carving this tablet, and then light incense and worship it."

Jun Yuanjiu jumped to his feet immediately, without even looking at the tablet, and said, "How can I carve a tablet and offer incense for others!"

Facing A Xiao's threatening gaze, Jun Yuanjiu had no choice but to compromise.

While he was carving, Axiao found the well behind the ancestral hall, fetched water, cleaned the ancestral hall, and placed the tablets one by one.

There are also murals carved on both sides of the ancestral hall about all the important days in Wucai Town. The murals include New Year's Eve, Lantern Festival, and the Flower Picking Festival.

A Xiao looked at them one by one, but always felt that she had missed something.

Finally, Jun Yuanjiu placed the carved tablet on it.

After the tablet was wiped clean, A Xiao noticed a line of small words at the bottom.

'Died on September 18, th year of Ming Dynasty. '

Counting the time, the person on the last tablet died 20 years ago.

A Xiao and Jun Yuan looked at each other in disbelief.

Since then, there have been no new memorial tablets. Could it be that no one in Wucai Town has died in the past 20 years?

Or Wucai Town has abandoned their ancestral hall. No one will believe it.

Finally, A Xiao picked out a few incense candles from under the abandoned table and asked Jun Yuan Jiu to light them and offer them to them.

Jun Yuanjiu reluctantly lit the incense, and the moment the incense was inserted, the black lines on Jun Yuanjiu's wrist slowly dissipated.

Jun Yuanjiu felt relaxed, but A Xiao frowned.

This is the curse of the evil spirits!
