Chapter 143 The Ancestral Hall Was Struck by Lightning

Ling Chu lowered his eyes and carefully looked at the three incense sticks in his hand, but found that there was nothing wrong with the incense.

Although the fragrance was not of the highest quality, she didn't see anything wrong with it in terms of smell, dryness, etc.

Ling Chu turned to look at the incense burner again. The three incense sticks that Mrs. Tai had just lit were burning nicely.

Could it be that there was something wrong with the quality of the three incense sticks she just took?

Seeing her standing still, Mrs. Tai urged her with a stern face, "Why are you standing there, why don't you burn incense for your ancestors again?"

Ling Chu glanced at her lightly and said nothing. He picked up three more incense sticks, lit them with fire sticks, bowed and bowed, then walked to the altar table and put the incense in his hand into the incense burner.

What Ling Chu didn't expect was that just as she took her hand back, the incense suddenly went out.

And just like before, the three incense sticks were broken in the middle.

"Hey, eldest lady, what have you done to disgrace the family tradition? Even our ancestors were angry and refused to accept your offer." The second lady's sarcastic voice sounded at the door of the ancestral hall.

It turned out that Madam Dong called Ling Chu away just now, and Mrs. Dong and others hesitated and followed.

As soon as they walked to the door of the ancestral hall and saw the scene just now, the second lady immediately started taunting her in a weird way.

Ling Chu frowned and raised his hand again to take out half of the incense from the incense burner. He turned his head and glanced at the second lady coldly, "Even if the second aunt doesn't speak, no one will treat you as a mute."

There was a fire in the second lady's heart, but when she met Ling Chu's cold and deep gaze, she suddenly shuddered.

Seeing that she had shut her mouth, Ling Chu withdrew his gaze and walked towards the place where the incense was placed again.

Behind her, the second lady's tense heartstrings relaxed, followed by anger.

Sure enough, she was the bane of the six relatives. The look in this dead girl's eyes just now was really scary.

Ling Chu ignored the second lady. In order to prevent the incense from breaking again, she deliberately opened a new bundle of incense.

She took out three, lit them, and walked to the altar table.

She had just looked at this bundle of incense, so there should be no more problems.

Just as he was about to put the incense in place, he heard the madam say coldly, "Kneel down."

Ling Chu made a move and his eyes became cold, but in the end he did not speak and turned around to walk to the futon beside him.

She didn't want to cause too much trouble, she just wanted to kneel down and worship her ancestors, that's all.

When the Second Madam saw that she did not dare to resist the Madam, a look of schadenfreude appeared on her face.

Ling Chu walked to the futon and saw that it was still clean. He bent his knees and knelt down.

However, the next second, she watched the three incense sticks in her hand go out again.

Then it was cut off in the middle.

Ling Chu was completely stunned.

While I was stunned, I suddenly heard the sound of table tennis.

Looking up, his eyes widened instantly.

The spiritual tablets that were originally neatly placed on the altar were all dumped on the altar.

The lady who witnessed all this was also stunned.

It turned out that Xiang Mie, like Ling Chu, thought it was just an accident.

But the same thing happened one after another, making her suspicious.

The first sister put on three sticks of incense. Not only were all three sticks extinguished, but the incense was also broken in the middle every time.

Is this really the ancestor's dissatisfaction with Chu Jie'er?

At the entrance of the ancestral hall, the moment she saw the spiritual tablet fall, Dong's hands suddenly grabbed the handkerchief tightly.

The second lady gloated over the misfortune and opened her mouth to taunt, "I'm just saying that the eldest girl must have behaved badly and made all the ancestors dissatisfied..."

Ling Chu was frowning in thought, already impatient with the second lady's repeated jumping around.

He made a quick gesture with his right hand at his side and flicked it in the direction of the second lady.

The madam was upset, and when she saw the second madam was still chattering, she couldn't help but scolded her coldly, "Shut up."

As soon as the words fell, the second lady's voice disappeared instantly.

The whole ancestral hall fell silent.

Everyone thought that the second lady was scolded by the dowager, so they shut up.

But only the Second Lady knew otherwise.

Because she suddenly found that she could not make a sound or speak.

The second lady didn't believe in evil, but she opened and closed her lips several times, but she couldn't make any sound.

A sudden panic surged in my heart.

The more nervous and frightened she became, the less able she found herself to speak.

He was so frightened that he tightly grabbed Dong beside him with both hands.

Mrs. Dong was completely immersed in her own thoughts at this time, and did not notice anything strange about the second lady. After she grabbed her sleeve, she shook it off without thinking.

The second lady was shocked and angry after Ms. Dong shook her hand off.

The third lady and Aunt Wen on the side glanced at her and saw that she was frightened and angry, so they didn't take it to heart. Both of them thought that the second lady was embarrassed because she was reprimanded by the dowager, and could not get off the stage.

He never thought that Ling Chu had done anything.

The wife didn't pay much attention to the daughters-in-law at the door of the ancestral hall, and said to Ling Chu with a dark face, "Sister Chu, kowtow to your ancestors. From today on, you will stay in the ancestral hall and reflect on it..."

Boom!

Before the lady finished speaking, a deafening thunder suddenly came from the sky.

Everyone was startled by the sudden thunder.

Subconsciously, they turned their heads to look at the sky.

However, what everyone found strange was that outside the ancestral hall, the sky was clear and the sun was shining brightly.

Ling Chu's dark gaze was fixedly withdrawn from the clear sky outside the ancestral hall, and fell on the half-remaining sandalwood in his hand. After a pause, he turned to look at the spiritual tablets that were all lying on the altar table.

She believed that she had never done anything to bring shame to the ancestors of the Ling family since she was a child.

Since she did nothing wrong, she has a clear conscience.

Throwing the remaining half of the sandalwood in her hand into the burning paper basin beside her, Ling Chu clapped his hands, propped himself up on the mat, and stood up.

Hearing the noise, the old lady turned around and saw her standing upright in front of the altar. She was so angry that her already dark face turned even darker.

"Kneel down..."

Crack!

As soon as the old lady said this, a dazzling white light suddenly struck down from the sky.

Then another loud thunder exploded!

It frightened everyone so much that they were shocked, but at the same time, a strange thought suddenly emerged in their hearts. Why did it feel like the thunder was against the old lady asking the eldest girl to kneel down to the ancestral tablets?

The blood on Dong's face suddenly faded away, leaving only a paleness.

Before she could come to her senses, Xia Zhi, who was waiting outside the ancestral hall, suddenly rushed in with a nervous look on his face.

"Miss, the ancestral hall is on fire, run."

The people standing at the door subconsciously looked up at the top of the ancestral hall.

Their faces suddenly changed.

A huge fire was rising from the upper right of the ancestral hall.

Mrs. Wen's heart tightened, but she did not turn around and run away. Instead, she followed Xia Zhi and rushed into the ancestral hall, holding the wife's arm, "Madam, run."

Ling Chu had already smelled a strong smell of burning, and she didn't care about the surprise in her heart. She was pulled out of the ancestral hall by Xia Zhi.

When they were far away from the ancestral hall, everyone stopped and looked back.

However, seeing the blazing fire, the third wife and Mrs. Wen were all stunned.

The location of the fire in the ancestral hall turned out to be the direction where the lightning struck just now.

The Ling Mansion Ancestral Hall was burned by the sky fire!
