Yu Linglong didn’t explain, she just let Xuan Cao change her clothing . She was dressed in a lake-blue spring s.h.i.+rt with a white magnolia flower at the bottom and embroidered with a few flying jade b.u.t.terflies of various sizes . Her movements were steady, exceptionally beautiful, and refined .

When he left, lord Xu happened to be on the side for a while . Seeing Yu Linglong coming out with Xuan Cao, he walked up a few steps and said with a smile: “There is a teahouse in Yunhu with a wonderful view . I will take you there to sip tea and enjoy the scenery, okay?”

Yu Linglong didn’t stop, and walked directly out: “I won’t go, I have something to do . ”

Lord Xu was immediately disappointed, but he didn’t give up and said, “Where are you going? May I accompany you?”

Yu Linglong didn’t even look at him: “I’m going to the Yu mansion’s ancestral hall, are you going too?”

Lord Xu laughed: “In this world, there is no place I can’t go . ”

He rushed into the inner courtyard of the Yu house and he also entered Yu Linglong’s boudoir . Why would he not dare go to a small ancestral hall?

Yu Linglong snorted coldly: “You can go if you like, no one cares about you . ”

After that, Yu Linglong ignored him again and left .

Lord Xu just laughed and closely followed Yu Linglong towards the ancestral hall .

General Yu’s Mansion was not like those generational aristocrats’ in the capital, and the ancestral hall was not too big . It was just a four-to-five-meter square building . Inside, there were many tablets of the ancestors of the Yu family, offering tables, incense burners, and bronze pots . These sacrificial objects were all abandoned there .

The sun was s.h.i.+ning outside, but the room was gloomy . Looking at the dense ebony tablets, the atmosphere unconsciously became gloomy .

At this moment, tables and chairs had been set up outside the ancestral hall . General Yu and Mu s.h.i.+ were sitting in the middle with Yu Weiwu and Yu Qianjiao next to them . Concubine Dong and Concubine Mei were not qualified to attend such occasions, but Concubine Mei was very popular as of late, and today was not a day of sacrifice, so General Yu brought her . Concubine Mei was able to attend, so Aunt Dong could naturally come . Mu s.h.i.+ ordered her to come and stand behind her, obviously treating her differently from Concubine Mei .

Yu Qianliu and Yu Qianfang were sitting together . Since Yu Qianfang had her hair cut off by Yu Linglong, it had been a long time since Yu Qianfang had been out of the yard . It was thought that she would feign illness today so she wouldn’t come, but who knew she would come too . On a hot day, her head was covered with thick gauze, which was impermeable to the wind, covering her head that had just grown some hair .

Yu Weide and Yu Weiyuan were sitting at the same table . They were both sons of commoners, one big and one small, but the contrast was very obvious . Yu Weide was young and mature, sitting upright, expressionless, and not showing what he was thinking . But Yu Weiyuan was lively and active . He wanted to grab and eat when he saw the offerings, but he was dragged back by the nurse, still causing trouble .

As soon as Yu Linglong entered the venue, all the voices fell silent, and even Yu Weiyuan stopped making noise and looked at Yu Linglong .

With a cold gaze, all the complicated expressions were shut down in front of her eyes . Yu Linglong smiled coldly, walked to the last empty table, and sat down .

Lord Xu sat next to Yu Linglong familiarly and smiled: “What day is it today? Why is it so lively?”

As soon as lord Xu came in behind Yu Linglong, everyone in the Yu house had already stood up and saluted lord Xu .

Yu Linglong didn’t hear lord Xu’s question, but General Yu didn’t dare not answer . He bowed and said, “It’s a matter of the minister . ”

Lord Xu looked at sorceress Bai who was meditating in the ancestral hall, and couldn’t help but smile: “You old fellow, this is really interesting . ”

Will General Yu who has killed countless soldiers also believe in the nonsense of ghosts? If there are ghosts and G.o.ds, how many spirits are there of people killed by General Yu?

General Yu smiled so hard that his face turned red and white, and he gave Mu s.h.i.+ a fierce look .

If it wasn’t for this woman being so troublesome, how could he be so embarra.s.sed in front of Lord Xu?

Lord Xu shook the fan in his hand and looked at sorceress Bai with interest . The expression on her face was like they were watching a play: “Do you want to handle it? Let’s get started!”

General Yu sighed helplessly, waved back, and the daughter-in-law in charge trotted to the door of the ancestral hall and whispered to the little nuns .

After a while, they saw sorceress Bai slowly get up and walk outside . She was dressed in a cyan robe with a serious face, and the duster in her hand was flying with the breeze . It really felt a little bit dusty .

In the dark ancestral hall, two little Taoist nuns were arranging for the rite . They saw that they first surrounded a piece of land with red ropes, leaving only a gap as big as a plate unsealed . They lighted candles on the four corners of the square and burned yellow paper on the charcoal basin next to it . Finally, in the center of the square, they put up a few two or three-meter-high wooden sticks and covered them with a large piece of white cloth which gave the black ancestral hall a strange and inexplicable atmosphere .

While the little Taoist nuns were arranging the rite, sorceress Bai bowed to everyone and said in a clear voice: “There will be a soul-calling ceremony in a moment . If there are any signs, please don’t speak out, let alone scream, otherwise, you will disturb the souls . The consequences could be disastrous . ”

After a few words, even the brave General Yu felt uncertain . Concubine Dong hurriedly pulled Yu Weiyuan to her side, covering his mouth to prevent him from crying .

Compared with everyone’s nervousness, Yu Linglong had a cold face and didn’t care . Lord Xu beside her was more carefree and relaxed . When sorceress Bai became more serious, the smile on lord Xu’s face became thicker, like watching a clown in an opera .

After speaking, sorceress Bai turned around and entered the ancestral hall . In the gloomy ancestral hall, her bluish-white figure was particularly eye-catching, and her every move was in the gaze of everyone .

They watched her stand in front of the high white curtain, chanting some words . The speed of her speech was so fast that people could not understand what she was saying . With the fast tone of voice, the duster in her hand was waving at the curtain from time to time . The candles at the eaves were bright and dark, and the fluttering white cloth was slowly floating like waves in the water .

After the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, lord Xu was already impatient . He leaned forward from the square table . Regardless of whether it was the ancestral hall of the Yu Mansion or he was in front of all the people from the Yu family, he smiled and said to Yu Linglong: “Does it look like anything is happening? It doesn’t make any sense!”
