On the seventh day, the gate of the Fengxian Hall was opened, and the horn made from the horns of wild beasts and oxen blew a majestic sound. As the candle flames flickered, there seemed to be a brilliance flowing on the spiritual tablets of the ancestors.
Incense smoke curled up from the small bronze cauldron, and spiritual fruits and spiritual beasts were listed on the incense table. Yang Chengbo, the current master of the ceremony hall, stood at the top, holding a jade silk, exhaling and saying: "
Yang Chengzhao, the second generation patriarch;
First break through the martial realm, the tall green tree gate;
The second breaks the Qing Qi, and the bluestone becomes a noble family;
Inherit the lineage and inherit the industry, and shine the lintel;
Nowadays, when a temple is set up to offer sacrifices, the person with high merit is called "Gao" and the temple is named "Gaozu".
"Loyalty is called virtue when it is true, and kindness when it is transformed is called virtue."
"It is called virtue when it is radiant and generous, and it is called virtue when it is broad and pure."
The posthumous title is "De" and the honorific title is "Cheng", collectively known as "Great Ancestor Yang Decheng!"
"Great Ancestor Decheng!"
All the tribesmen prostrated and shouted in unison. It had been more than a hundred years since Taizu Jingzhao was conferred a posthumous title. Many tribesmen had only heard about the grand scene when the ancestor was consecrated in a temple and consecrated a posthumous title.
With the current power of the Yang family, after experiencing it personally, I know that it is more shocking than what is recorded in the family history.
The real people from various factions in Yuzhou who came to pay homage had their eyes opened this time. All the sects in Yuzhou offered sacrifices together, established a temple and established a posthumous title, which was recorded in the family history. The name has been passed down for thousands of years. Who can not admire this honor after death.
The various factions in Yuzhou have already experienced the power of the imperial examination system and the system of sectarian promotion and grace. The establishment of posthumous titles in fixed temples seems to be even better.
It’s no wonder that the Yang family has a pure family tradition, and the people abide by etiquette and know the law. Not to mention the threat of the punishment hall, even the establishment of a temple and a posthumous title is a great constraint. No one wants to receive a bad posthumous title after death.
Among them, the most excited person is Yang Qi from the Confucian tribe. He is an orthodox Confucian man. Although he has insufficient cultivation, he can still feel that the posthumous title No. 4 in the temple seems to contain huge literary and moral values. Power.
It's just that the literary skills in this world are not obvious, and this kind of literary power has not been inspired. However, he just participated in this sacrifice, and his literary courage seems to be about to break through the realm in front of him.
When everyone at the scene was thinking, Yang Chengzhao used spiritual power as a pen to write "Yang Shi Chengzhao" on the left and "Decheng Gaozu" on the right in seal script.
At the same time, in the Yinming Realm, a ray of white spiritual light shot out and landed directly on the spiritual tablet.
Then everyone knelt down and offered incense again, and the strong incense power surged towards the spirit tablet, and then directly reached Yang Chengzhao's soul body in the Yinming Realm through the white light on the spirit tablet. Yang Mingzhen was originally a perfect martial artist, but his soul was much stronger than Yang Boqiao's back then.
At this time, under the protection of the Yinming Realm, the soul body directly possessed the spirit tablet, actively absorbing the incense and wish power in it, and looked at the descendants in front of him with a smile on his face.
The sound of chanting sutras began to spread out from the Fengxian Hall and Xishan Mountain. At the same time, the people in the seven counties under the Yang family bowed down at the same time and then chanted.
The sound of the Taoism was louder than a hundred years ago, as if the sound of chanting could be heard in the entire Yuzhou, and the clouds and mist drifting across the entire Xishan Mountain became more like an immortal.
After everyone had finished offering sacrifices to Emperor Decheng, Yang Chengbo took a deep breath and spoke again: "
The second generation Minglei, the third generation Auxiliary;
Respect the ancestors above, and the descendants below;
Now a temple is built to offer sacrifices, and the temple is named "Xizong".
"Doing good deeds without slacking off is called Dun; being gentle, kind and loyal is called Dun;"
"Being close and harmonious to one's family is called Dun; cultivating pure virtue is called Dun;"
The posthumous title is "Dun" and the honorific title is "Chun", collectively known as "Dun Chunxi Zong!"
"Dun Chun Xi Zong!"
All the tribesmen shouted again, paying the highest respect to Yang Minglei, the second-generation ancestor.
In Yang Hongyuan's spiritual eyes, Yang Minglei's soul also descended on the throne, enjoying the incense.
Just when everyone thought it was about to end, Yang Chengbo took out a piece of silk again and read:
"The Sun family is Hengyan, the Yang family is honorable;
Zuo Bi III worked hard;
Dedicating oneself to the utmost, one’s virtue is evident;
It is truly an example for all generations, and together it is worthy of being shared in the Imperial Ancestral Temple! "
As soon as Yang Chengbo said this, the entire Xishan Mountain was in a sensation. You must know that the Yang family has been passed down for nearly 800 years, and there are less than twenty people who are qualified to appoint a temple and establish a posthumous title.
It is a great honor for a clan member with a foreign surname, Sun Hengyan, to be able to enjoy the incense and sacrifices of the Yang family.
The real people from all the Yuzhou sects present were also shocked. The Yang family in Xishan originally bought the horse bones for a thousand gold.
It was precisely because of the example of the Sun family that many casual cultivators followed. The Yang family's reputation today began when the Sun family merged into the Yang family.
In the past two hundred years, the Sun family has been completely integrated into the Yang family, and the two Yang families left behind by the Sun family are also quite prominent.
Among other things, his grandson Yang Hongyao is not only a real-life monk, but also a master of alchemy.
If it had not been merged into the Yang family at the beginning, I wonder if it has become a famous family now. How could the future generations have their current future, and how could they have such a posthumous reputation.
Yang family, hey, this move is clearly shaking the hearts of many real people and casual cultivators. When this matter spreads, the Yang family's attraction to many casual cultivators will surely become even greater.
Not to mention these casual cultivators, even the real people from various sects in Yuzhou had the urge to join the Yang family in an instant, so that they could enjoy the Ancestral Temple and the incense and sacrifices for eternity.
What's more, since he is the first clan member with a foreign surname to enjoy the Ancestral Temple, how can the Yang family be so ordinary? As expected, Yang Chengbo continued to recite: "
Respecting the virtuous and letting the good go is called Gong, and being able to correct the mistakes is called Gong;
The eldest brother who loves the people is called Gong, and the eldest brother who loves the people is called Gong;
The posthumous title is "Gong" and the honorific title is "An", collectively known as "Tai Gong Gong'an!"
"Grandpa Gong'an!"
Sun Wujian cried and laughed when he heard this, but only recovered after being comforted by his children and grandchildren. Then he took Yang Huaiqian and Yang Hongyao to place his father's spiritual tablet in the west side hall.
After everyone calmed down again, Yang Chengzhao slowly stepped forward, took Yang Chengbo's place, opened a jade silk letter, and continued to chant: "
There are nine great masters in the Yang generation;
To be granted the title of Taigong is worthy of enjoying the Imperial Ancestral Temple: "
Yang Chengzhao's move was an obvious act of kindness. The nine great masters honored by one generation can be said to be the ancestors of the Yang family present.
Because of the system of direct descendants and descendants, as well as the imperial examination and conferment system, it was somewhat of a shock to the Yang clan.
Now this move is to appease the many members of the Yang family, and at the same time to maintain the blood and family ties of the Yang family.
The effect was also obvious. Everyone in the Yang clan knelt down and thanked him. At the same time, the nine Taigong descendants headed by Yang Huaichen each sent their ancestors' spiritual tablets to the East Side Hall.
In this way, everyone also understands the purpose of the east and west auxiliary halls of Feng'an Palace. The east auxiliary hall is used to worship the meritorious Yang family members, and the west auxiliary hall is used to worship meritorious people of different surnames.
This move made the entire Yang family excited. After all, with the current situation of the Yang family, it would be difficult to establish a temple and determine the posthumous title.
Many clansmen also know that based on their merits, they are not qualified to enshrine their ancestors and enter the Fengxian Hall. However, if they can enter the side hall and enjoy the Ancestral Temple, the threshold is much lower. How can this not inspire many clan members of the Yang family.
Many of the Yuzhou cultivators present were also shocked when they saw the Yang family's establishment of a temple and a posthumous title. Who wouldn't want to be worthy of enjoying the Ancestral Temple and leaving a name behind him?
