Blue, Red and White Dark Abyss Cauldron

After hearing what he said, everyone realized that this was the reason why the Huai family did not want to pass on the art of asking spirits to outsiders. Some of those who wanted to use this meeting to reprimand them withdrew their ideas, thinking that learning the art of asking spirits was not only of little use, but could also be very harmful to the body, so it would be better not to learn it.

Chu Xiaomu was very anxious, thinking that if Uncle Huai was unwilling to spread the story, that would be terrible.

Bai Qizheng took over Huai Fucao's words and said, "That being said, we can't just let this technique be lost. Seventy years ago, the flowers on the island withered and died overnight, the third son of the Yang family suddenly fell into a coma, and even earlier, a large group of wild bees injured and killed people. If it weren't for the spiritual technique, none of these could have been solved."

He paused and continued, "If you can avoid using this kind of advanced technique, then of course you don't need to use it. But if you encounter a matter of life and death, and this technique can be solved but no one knows how to do it, then what should you do?"

Everyone nodded in agreement, and Chu Xiaomu agreed with it even more, feeling that the clan leader's words touched the heart.

Huai Fucao said: "The art of asking spirits is not easily passed on to outsiders. Losing essence is actually only one reason. The more important reason is the second one."

Everyone was curious and listened to his story with bated breath.

"Anyone who can learn the art of asking spirits must open their hearts and build a spirit platform. The key to this cannot be explained at the moment, but it is very difficult. For our Huai family, it is much easier to open our hearts, but it is not as easy as it was for our ancestors when it was passed down through the bloodline. It is even more difficult for outsiders to tell."

Everyone knew that what he said was the truth and they all kept silent. Many people used to think that the Huai family was keeping their skills to themselves and were unwilling to pass on their skills to outsiders in order to gain more benefits under the name of spiritual doctors. Who would have thought that learning the art of asking questions about spirits would have so many disadvantages and troubles.

Bai Qizheng said, "The soul-asking technique is a family technique of the Huai family. We have no right to interfere in whether it can be passed on. However, Fucao and I have already agreed this morning that although this technique is not very effective, it is something left by our ancestors after all, so we should pass it on as much as possible. As for who to pass it on to and how to pass it on, we have to discuss it together."

Everyone started arguing again.

Some people say that it should be passed on to the descendants of the Huai family. After all, it is easier for their own family to learn it, and their family has been practicing medicine for generations, so learning the art of asking spirits will be more useful.

At this moment, someone immediately stood up to refute, saying that spiritual arts consumes essence, and that Huai Fucao's two sons have weak constitutions and cannot learn this at all.

Some people said that this spirit-asking technique would not be used for decades, so it was no big deal if it was lost. Immediately, several people agreed, saying that Baihua Island had always been peaceful, and although there were water monsters that hurt people in the past, this spirit-asking technique could not help repel the enemy, so it was useless to learn it. If you want to learn it, you can learn it by yourself, because our family doesn't learn it anyway.

Others said that each family should select young and strong people to learn the art of asking spirits together. Whether they can learn it depends on their ability. Most people agreed with this view.

Huai Fucao quickly shook his head and refused, saying that the spiritual art could only be taught to one person and never to multiple people at the same time.

Everyone asked what the reason was.

Huai Fucao said that this was not only the result of the harsh teachings from his ancestors, but also that his ability was limited. As for the detailed reasons, he could not explain them clearly at the moment.

Bai Qizheng picked up the wooden stick and gently struck the gong twice, and everyone immediately quieted down.

Bai Qizheng said: "Fucao and I think that we should follow everyone's wishes. It is completely voluntary to learn or not to learn. Others cannot force others to learn, nor can they arbitrarily prevent them from learning. Let's put it this way. Those who are willing to learn spiritual arts can go to Fucao's house tomorrow morning to become his disciples. He will personally select them, and he will decide whether they can be selected. We will not discuss this matter anymore. The third thing is about this year's ancestor worship festival..."

Ever since Chu Xiaomu heard Huai Fucao say that the art of asking spirits could be passed on to others, he became very excited. He thought that he must learn the art of asking spirits. First, he would heal Bai Yixing's injuries, and then he would search for the traces of his parents.

Later, I heard that the spiritual arts could only be taught to one person at a time, and I was disappointed. I thought, there are probably dozens of people who want to learn spiritual arts, so why did Uncle Huai choose me? Suddenly, I felt someone pulling my clothes hard from behind. I turned around and saw that it was my good friend Yang Dou.

Yang Dou asked with a smile: "Mu Tou, do you want to learn spiritual arts?"

Chu Xiaomu asked back: "Of course I want to learn, don't you want to?"

Yang Dou stuck out his tongue and said, "Didn't you hear what my grandfather said? 'If you want to learn, learn it by yourself. We Yang family members don't learn it anyway.' My father even said that if I sneak away to learn it, he would break my legs."

Chu Xiaomu smiled and said, "Your legs have been beaten dozens or hundreds of times, and they have never been broken. What are you afraid of?"

Yang Dou said, "Forget it. I think it's useless to learn it. It's not as fun as raising bees and fighting crickets. And you've heard that Uncle Huai only accepts one disciple. It won't be my turn anyway."

"What if Uncle Huai takes a liking to you and insists on passing on the art of spiritual inquiry to you?" Chu Xiaomu joked.

"Then he has to pass the test of my grandfather and my father first." Yang Dou said proudly.

"Haha, there's still your mother's problem..."

"Mu Tou, why do you want to learn this?" Yang Dou asked.

Chu Xiaomu pretended to be mysterious and said, "This is a secret of heaven. King Ling told me not to tell Yu Daizi."

Yang Dou was immediately delighted, and ran over to grab Chu Xiaomu, saying as he grabbed him, "Great, you stinky piece of wood actually called me an idiot."

Chu Xiaomu turned and ran, and the two of them started laughing and joking outside the crowd.

Chu Xiaomu suddenly stopped, frowned and said, "It is a problem to accept only one person. We have to think of a solution." After thinking it over in his mind, he had an idea and whispered to Yang Dou what to do.

Yang Dou grabbed Chu Xiaomu and said with a smile, "You are the only one who has so many tricks up your sleeve."

The two villages in the east and south of Baihua Island hold a ceremony to worship their ancestors at the end of autumn every year. First, they inform their ancestors of all the events that happened in the past year and ask the teachers who teach children to read and write on the island to record and compile them for future generations to study; second, they tell the heroic deeds of the ancestors of Baihua Island so that the younger generation will remember them in their hearts; third, they celebrate the harvest and pray to the ancestors to bless their descendants with safety, so that they can go out to sea smoothly in the next year without encountering storms and have enough food and clothing; fourth, they take this opportunity to let the young people get to know each other, and those who are in love can make a marriage agreement under the auspices of the clan leaders of the two villages...

There are so many things to do that every islander has to participate, so it's very lively.

Chu Xiaomu and Yang Dou were not interested in ancestor worship and did not listen carefully.

Everyone discussed the ancestor worship for a while, and decided to hold it at the ancestral temple in the South Village in a month. They would notify the North Village in a few days and ask them to prepare a few days in advance.
