Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The ancestral sacrifice started half an hour after Pan Chen came out of the cabinet. The location was Kunqian Mountain, where the remains of many ancestors of the Pan family were buried. The entire hill was only open to Pan family members. The ancestral sacrifice only happened once every six years, so  The scene was extremely solemn.  According to the custom of Wuji City, it took less than half an hour to open. Under the leadership of the clan leader and elders, hundreds of descendants of the Pan family knelt on the stone platform at the foot of the mountain, kowtowed to thank them for their kindness. Many clan members were moved by the scene and thought of their elders alive.  Bit by bit, I began to cry silently.  The ancestor worship held every six years effectively unites the descendants of the Pan family into a group and enhances the family's sense of honor. The descendants from all over the world gather together to reminisce about the past and deepen their feelings.  So ancestral sacrifice is very important to every descendant of the Pan family.  After the grand ceremony led by the patriarch ended, hundreds of people held incense, candles and yellow paper and began to worship their parents and ancestors. Pan Song's status was low and he was not qualified to participate in the ancestor ceremony. Pan Chen had to come to his grandfather's home alone.  , in front of great-grandfather¡¯s grave.  Pan Chen discovered that his missing parents did not appear in the ancestral graves in Kunqian Mountain. In his memory, it seemed that the bodies were not found, or something else.  "What are you thinking about?" Just as Pan Chen was recalling his childhood scenes, Pan Pojing suddenly appeared behind him and asked in a low voice.  Pan Chen said with a frown.  "Since the bodies of my parents have not been found, why is the family sure that my parents are dead?" Pan Chen has always been confused about this. Logically speaking, for such a big thing, you have to see the person alive and the body after death.  , the disappearance of several people for no reason may not necessarily mean that they are dead, and it would be too hasty to judge life and death based on disappearance.  Pan Pojing was silent for a moment and replied.  "From the moment they are born, the descendants of the Pan family will have a spiritual seal planted in their bodies and engraved on their souls. The spiritual seals correspond to their respective eternal lights. After your parents disappeared, the eternal lights and so on will be extinguished soon." "That spirit.  Is there any other way to eliminate the seal?" Pan Chen was shocked.  Regarding the spirit seal, there is no relevant picture in my memory.  "Eliminate?" Pan Pojing's expression darkened, and he spoke slowly.  "I hope your parents used some method to eliminate it, but firstly, why do you want to eliminate the spiritual seal that is not harmful to the body at all? Secondly, to eliminate the spiritual seal, not only does it require cultivation at the human immortal stage, but it will also hurt yourself.  Yuanshen, the Venerable Human Immortal, are you bored with your free time? " Pan Chen thought about it carefully. It is indeed the case. There is no need to do thankless things. Besides, the spiritual seal only corresponds to life and death and has no other effect. The couple also  Why would you leave your son who is less than ten years old and leave the Pan family to fake death?  Seeing Pan Chen lowering his eyebrows and saying nothing, Pan Po sighed in surprise.  "Chen'er, please forgive me and accept the change, and save your energy to deal with the next changes. Now, preserving the property left to you by your parents is the most important thing." Speaking of the next changes, Pan Chen raised his eyebrows and thought in his heart  He chuckled twice.  After the ancestral sacrifice, hundreds of Pan family descendants returned to their home one after another. In the Elder Hall, each direct family sent representatives and gathered in the hall. The old patriarch, wearing a neat white shirt, sat at the head.  There are not many direct lineages who are qualified to participate in the distribution of upper-level interests of the Pan family. There are only a dozen or so. Other branches cannot touch the upper-level interests of the Pan family due to various reasons.  "Today the ancestral sacrifice has ended safely. Taking advantage of this rare opportunity, I want to announce a major decision with the approval of the Elders Council, regarding the distribution of benefits that has been used for hundreds of years." The old patriarch looked serious and spoke meticulously. After finishing his words,  There was no heated discussion, everyone got the news, so it seemed very calm on the surface.  Of course, the calmness is only due to psychological preparation, but everyone is very worried about the new rules of benefit distribution.  "In the past, the interests of our Pan family in all aspects, especially in Wuji City, were in the hands of a very small group of children and grandchildren. They either declined or prospered. The core utilization was never open to other children and grandchildren. As a result, many talented people  , The capable children and grandchildren of the partial branch did not receive the best support, became disloyal, and died in depression. " As he spoke, the old patriarch paused and narrowed his eyes slightly to see the reaction of everyone. A small part of the children and grandchildren in his words.  , isn¡¯t that the person sitting here?  Among the people sitting, there were only two elders. Except for them, everyone else's expressions changed, their brows instantly frowned, and their faces were a little unhappy. However, before the old patriarch finished speaking, no one stood up to interrupt.  Wait for the posture below.  There must be some resentment. The core interests of the Pan family have little connection with the Presbyterian Church. The former can obtain core interests because of its direct bloodline from the Pan family, while the latter, because of its own strength, sits on the position of elder.  In the entire Pan family's interest chain, the two are on opposite sides, but because the patriarchs of the past generations with supreme strength and authority mediate in the middle, the two parties have always maintained peace.Things are happening, but the overt and covert struggles behind the scenes are also happening constantly.  On the issue of distribution of core interests, the two parties have been fighting for many years, and there has been little change. Today, through ancestral sacrifices, the Elders Council and the clan leader have been making changes to the rules for distribution of interests. In fact, it has shown that the Pan family has made big moves.  "The hereditary distribution plan that has been used for many years has done more harm than good and seriously hindered the development of my Pan family. I believe everyone knows it, right?" The old patriarch said, his eyes fell on several people, including Pan Chen.  Especially for Pan Chen, although the abandoned industries over the years are excusable, they undoubtedly exposed the disease of the hereditary core interests.  Pan Chen doesn¡¯t think there¡¯s anything wrong with it. There is no excuse for the fact that he is occupying the toilet and not taking a shit.  "So, starting from today, we will make the following changes, abolishing the old rule of hereditary core interests of direct descendants, and use two aspects to measure the distribution standard of core interests in the future." "First, the natural strength of all the new descendants of the Pan family  "Survival of the fittest, we must provide the best resources to the most promising children and grandchildren." "Secondly, all branch families of the Pan family will inherit the family based on their respective connections and abilities, and those who are most capable of making the industry bigger and stronger.  Come and take over." After saying that, the old patriarch nodded, ended his speech calmly, and cast a questioning look at everyone present.  "Patriarch, if there are talented and powerful children and grandchildren who are unable to manage the family industry, how should they be distributed?" A middle-aged man stood up and asked everyone's doubts. Everyone nodded and looked at the old patriarch.  The old patriarch smiled slightly.  "If the two conditions cannot be met, priority will be given to the children and grandchildren with talent and strength, and the children and grandchildren who meet the second condition will be allowed to manage the property. A portion of the benefits will be divided and given to the Presbyterian Council, which will deal with those who only meet the first condition.  After listening to the old patriarch¡¯s explanation, many people present breathed a sigh of relief. On the surface, the new rules seemed to exploit the interests of direct descendants, but in fact they were measures to better cultivate talented descendants of collateral descendants.  The key point here is that in order for collateral descendants to take over the core interests from the direct line, they must meet two conditions. However, the family industry has always been operated in the hands of the direct line. The second condition actually protects the direct descendants in a different direction.  Of course, if the descendants of the collateral line are really capable, meet the two conditions, and outcompete the direct line, then they will only blame themselves for what they deserve. The starting point for benefit distribution is higher than others, and in the end they are robbed of their property.  Why do you cry out for injustice?  This new measure gives hope to the descendants of the collateral line, and at the same time inspires the fighting spirit of the direct descendants, and protects the talented descendants of the collateral line. From the perspective of the long-term development of the Pan family, it is indeed a very good reform.  For a moment, the direct representatives who secretly breathed a sigh of relief looked at Pan Chen with pity. It must be said that when the new measures started to be implemented, Pan Chen seemed to be the hardest hit and the most thorough.  "Have mercy on me, I might as well worry about myself." Pan Chen curled his lips and sneered in his heart. With his current strength of seventeen years old and Hui Yuan Dacheng, he can satisfy the first condition at least, and the second condition is not as good as others.  I don¡¯t know. How could he not know?  "I agree!" There is Pan Chen who suffers the most, and of course there is the one who benefits the most. Pan Li looked a little excited. He was the first to speak up and agreed with this modification.  Pan Li's response was already expected by everyone. He really wanted to agree that among the current direct line, their family has the least wealth, but the brightest future. Pan Yan is the younger generation who has become a monk. Where is the heritage of Pan Yan's family?  , but has been suffering from the lack of opportunities to get opportunities from other direct families.  And with Pan Chen and his family, it seems that the losers and winners of this year¡¯s benefit distribution revision are clear at a glance.  ""Feeling everyone's emotions and gazes, Pan Chen was speechless. He didn't dare to say that he could compete with Pan Li's family, but at least he was confident that the industry would not be divided.  "Glad at misfortune? There will be times when you cry." Pan Chen's face remained calm. Pan Li's family would inevitably profit. If they didn't take it from him, they would have to get it from another direct hand!
