Every Day Is One Step Closer to Reality

Chapter 302 Differential Treatment

After checking into the hotel, Feng Shou and his friends had one day to rest.

Feng Shou did not stay in the hotel all the time, but carried a backpack, took the bus or swiped a shared bicycle, and traveled through the streets of the city.

He looked at the different scenery in different corners of the city, took photos and videos, and sent them to his grandmother who was far away overseas. Although it was not the city where his ancestral home was, it was in this country after all, which would make the old man feel at home.

Feng Zheng was different. His family did not live overseas, and the city street scene was nothing new to him. He preferred to meet more people in the hotel's restaurant club or some public activity areas, and get more news from other clan members. It would be even better if he could know some interesting gossip.

The more news he got, the more excited he was.

Originally, Feng Zheng just came to participate in the ceremony on behalf of his father, to see the novelty and take a vacation. Unexpectedly, there were many powerful people among the clan members, such as the little girl he met who brought several bodyguards and looked difficult to mess with.

He heard from a clan member that the little girl's father had some unspeakable background and was also a very important guest of the Yangcheng Feng family this time. He enjoyed VVIP treatment among the clan members.

When they were waiting for the elevator, they saw the little girl coming out with a bodyguard. It seemed that the little girl was not happy living here, so she left the hotel with the bodyguard to find another place to live.

No wonder they didn't see it again afterwards.

"There is no comparison!"

On the day of the sacrificial ceremony.

Feng Shou and Feng Zheng and others would take the bus directly. There are vehicles arranged here to go directly from the hotel to the ancestral hall.

"We are like joining a group tour, which is convenient. Everything has been arranged. We just need to send people."

"We are just here to make up the numbers. Just treat it as a public-funded tour."

"Yeah, I thought so too. Maybe we can even see internet celebrities!"

Feng Zheng came over and whispered, "I met other clan members at the hotel this morning, and someone told me that Feng Yi would come!"

Feng Shou, who was a little lazy and leisurely enjoying the scenery outside the window, was delighted when he heard this: "Really?!"

Feng Zheng: "I heard them say that, I don't know if it's true. I heard that he was expelled from the family before, but he still belongs to the main clan. It's an invitation letter sent by a special clan member."

If Feng Yi doesn't do well, the Yangcheng Feng family will definitely ignore this person, but with Feng Yi's current fame, it can't be ignored.

Feng Shou doesn't care what the relationship between Feng Yi and the Yangcheng Feng family is. He is just thinking about asking Feng Yi some questions when he meets him.

The bus drove away from the city center, and the high-rise buildings gradually moved away.

From the mobile phone map, they have reached the outskirts of the city, with mountains and water, and the scenery is pretty good.

They also saw other people's ancestral halls of various sizes along the way.

"The ancestral hall culture here is very strong." Feng Shou said.

"This area is like this. There were more in the past, but later for some reasons, some were destroyed and some were moved. Some buildings should have been repaired in the past ten years."

The bus drove to an intersection and stopped briefly.

Someone in front was checking identities, and after a while, the bus continued to move forward.

Feng Shou looked at the people outside the window and said, "The security work is very good."

Feng Zheng was not surprised. He looked away and said, "The Feng family in Yangcheng is a big family in the local area, and there are also people of noble status who come to participate in the ceremony, so security must be done well."

The bus arrived at the parking lot, they got off the bus and walked to the location of the ancestral hall.

The parking lot is not far from there, and there are people to guide them. Continue forward, there is a large venue, and in front of the venue is a very impressive ancient building complex.

The majestic building in the C position is the ancestral hall of the Feng family in Yangcheng.

"This is such a big building!" Feng Shou exclaimed.

"As expected of the Feng family of Yangcheng, they are so rich! It feels like the mansions of the dignitaries in ancient times."

"What are those animals on the roof?" Feng Shou pointed upward.

"Those are the house-guarding beasts. Generally, this kind of ancient building will have this kind of decorative design to ward off disasters and evil spirits. If you see some scenic spots and historical sites when you are traveling, you will find that there are such beasts on the houses. The position, number and direction of the beasts are all particular. For example, in the places where the emperor lived and worked in the past, there were more beasts on the roofs!"

"What kind of animals are they?" Feng Shou took out his mobile phone to adjust the camera focus and zoomed in the picture, but he still couldn't recognize them.

"It depends on what the owner thinks. Some are legendary beasts, such as dragons, phoenixes, and lions. Some will use animals that exist in reality, such as lions." Feng Zheng said.

"Are there snakes?"

"Snakes? Dragons are more like it, but I haven't heard of snakes. I have heard of real snakes crawling on someone's roof! So thick!"

The clan members arrived one after another, and accents from all over the country and abroad could be heard. Some people talk too fast when chatting, and they mix a few foreign words in one sentence.

Some people even bring a translator with them.

However, no matter whether they bring a translator, an assistant, or a bodyguard, they cannot bring them into the ancestor worship ceremony.

The Feng family in Yangcheng also considered this aspect, so they arranged tasks for all the family members in advance. For some important guests, they will act as translators and assistants.

Feng Shou looked up at the door of the ancestral hall: "The Feng family ancestral hall, why is it called the 'ancestral hall'?"

"Maybe it means that this is the orthodox and main ancestral hall of their branch?"

"Orthodox?" Feng Shou asked doubtfully, "I heard from my grandma that the Feng family's orthodoxy is different from other families."

"That's just the main temple of their branch. I don't know if it's orthodox or not."

They didn't understand these things and didn't bother much.

"Is the door closed?" Feng Shuo looked curiously.

"It's not time yet, let's start at nine o'clock. Let's go to the room over there to rest, drink tea and relax, there will be someone to receive us."

Feng Zheng and his group entered a side room under the guidance of the receptionist.

The decoration is antique, and as soon as you step inside, a chill hits your face, suddenly dispelling the heat in the crowd.

Feng Zheng shook his arms and followed Feng in a low voice: "Do you feel the sinister wind?"

Feng Shuo pointed to Yijiao: "Is it possible... that's the air conditioner."

Feng Zheng coughed lightly and smiled awkwardly: "This design is too hidden."

While talking, another person came in.

The young man in a white shirt, black vest, and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses looked a bit artistic, and his eyes looking around were a little cold.

Feng Zheng took the initiative to say hello: "Hey brother, are you a clan member too?"

"Maybe, come here instead of my father." The young man said.

"Eh? Me too! My name is Feng Zheng."

"My name is Feng..."

The young man paused for a moment, then took out his ID and looked at the name on it, "My name is Feng Cheng, Cheng Cheng."

There was no trace of embarrassment about not being able to remember the name on his face, and he still had the same calm tone as before: "I don't use my Chinese name very often, so I'm not very familiar with it."

"Oh, I understand. The person next to me is also Feng Shuo. I saw several clan members who came from abroad to participate in the ceremony today. However, many people from abroad speak with accents, but your pronunciation is very standard." Feng Zheng explain.

"Necessary for the career." Feng Cheng said.

Visit the official website of Ancestral Factory every day, pay attention to the product launch news of Ancestral Factory, and watch every video they release.

The first updates from Ancestral Factory are generally in Chinese. Fengcheng was fortunate enough to have a brief exchange with Yue Gengyang, CEO of Ancestral Factory, at an important medical conference.

Mr. Yue told him that it was rare to meet someone who spoke Chinese so well, and gave him a small gift, a precious sample.

This time he came here and practiced Chinese for a few more days, waiting to go to the Ancestral Factory headquarters to participate in more exchanges.

Coming to Yangcheng to participate in the event was not only to complete the sign-in task assigned by his father, but also to familiarize himself with the environment, gain a sense of language, and prepare for the subsequent trip.

Feng Cheng looked at his watch patiently, "This ceremony must start at a certain time? How long will it last?"

"Uh... it's our first time to participate," Feng Zheng said.

"I can't believe I'm wasting my precious time on something like this!"

As he spoke, Feng Cheng found a corner to sit down and took out his mobile phone to browse the official news of the Ancestral Factory online.

Feng Zheng originally wanted to say a few more words to this clan relative, but when he saw this, he could only give up and continue to follow Feng to collect the news he had learned.

"I heard that there are people here who specialize in genealogy. You can go and look at the genealogy. Maybe you can find out the fate of each family five hundred years ago."

Feng Shuo hesitated and said, "But I heard my grandma say that the Feng clan genealogy is different from other clan genealogies, and the records are not complete."

"As long as it's relatively complete, no one dares to say which family's genealogy is absolutely correct and complete."

In another room not far from their house.

Feng Chi glared at the young man not far away. The man was wearing headphones, with half-closed eyes looking very engaged, humming and twisting.

Taking a deep breath, Feng Chi took out his cell phone and sent a message to Feng Yi:

[That idiot started again! He is worthy of being a singer who can’t even reach the 18th line! Pretentious! I got goosebumps when I heard it, and I wanted to call someone to take him out! 】

Feng Yi replied to him: [Can't leave? 】

Feng Chi: [No way, I have endured the task given by the old man from early in the morning until now! 】

Looking around, Feng Chi said again:

[Actually, I'm okay. Most of the work is taken care of by my dad and the others. For our generation, we basically receive young people or help take care of children. Children are so energetic! 】

Feng Yi: [Of those invited to participate in the ancestor worship ceremony, there are many with children? 】

Feng Chi: [Looking at the overall number, it’s not too much, but you don’t know, 4 children can make a scene for 8 people! 】

After a while, Feng Chi finally had some free time.

He wanted to tell his parents to go out and get some fresh air first, but looking not far away, his mother was chatting with several women until her face became stiff. The topics they talked about were probably not very pleasant.

He still didn't go over, so he sent a message and settled the matter.

Get out of the house.

There were also some clan members standing in twos and threes outside, some men and women, mostly young people.

Feng Chi touched his face narcissistically, worried that someone would covet his handsome body!

However, he would rather go outside to breathe the air than indoors.

Continue walking outside and strolling around the grounds outside.

After a while.

Feng Chi clearly realized a very cruel fact - he was not popular!

I thought that after being in the entertainment industry for a while, I had become somewhat famous, and had been searched a few times on the Internet, so I should be somewhat recognizable.

But at this clan gathering, few people really recognized him!

Maybe there are more overseas ones?

Alas, in short, he is still far away from his goal.

Feng Chi sighed and sent a message to Feng Yi to urge him.

Feng Chi: [Brother, when will you arrive? 】

Feng Yi: [On the way, almost there. 】

At a normal cocktail party, even if you are late for some reason, you won't be told anything.

However, this kind of ancestor worship activity has an "auspicious time".

Some people think it doesn't matter if it's a little later, but Mr. Feng attaches great importance to this and takes this kind of thing seriously.

When the "auspicious time" comes, no matter if there are still people who haven't arrived, the ceremony will begin.

Feng Chi: [I heard that he specifically asked a master to calculate the time, but I think he did ask a master to calculate the time. However, when setting this time, he probably considered many factors, such as the itinerary and daily habits of some important guests. , it’s too early to come. 】

Feng Yi: [Well, for example, cousin Zhen is about ten minutes behind me [laughs]. I mentioned you when I sent a message to my cousin just now. My cousin said that I would have a chance to talk to you when the time comes. 】

Feng Chi immediately laughed: [Hehehehe, my dear brother! 】

Knowing his cousin's attitude, Feng Chi was happy and thought about performing well when the time comes.

Feng Chi: [Unfortunately, I didn’t apply for the position of drummer and drummer of the Lion Dance Team. They thought I was not professional enough and my cooperation was not perfect enough. Otherwise, I will definitely sing one for my cousin! 】

While texting and chatting with Feng Yi, Feng Chi strolled around.

Hearing some movement, Feng Chi raised his eyes and looked over.

Not far in front stood a seven or eight-year-old little girl, wearing a somewhat antique skirt and braided pigtails. He was holding a thin wooden pole in his hand, with a brown lantern the size of an egg tied to the front end of the pole.

It is woven with fresh palm leaves, probably just recently, and the color is still very bright.

Feng Chi: [There is a very cute little sister in the clan! 】

[I won’t post the photo, you can see it when you come over here. 】

Before coming here, his father told him not to take random photos of the guests to prevent him from offending the wrong people.

In the entertainment industry, I have also encountered some troubles of being secretly photographed. Of course, Feng Chi would not just photograph others without permission.

There was another movement, and Feng Chi looked over.

A little boy came in front, slightly taller than the little girl. He pulled her pigtails and grabbed the straw lantern in her hand.

Feng Chi was about to go over and stop him.

See you soon——

The little girl put the lantern aside, rushed over and punched the little boy twice, knocking him to the ground.

At that moment, Feng Chi felt that this cute little sister from the clan was as strong as a cow.

It looks like he has been practicing!

The angle of the hammer is particularly particular!

The security personnel in charge of this area quickly walked over and took away the little boy who was crying on the ground.

Feng Chi looked at the little girl standing in front of him and opened his mouth, wanting to say something.

The little girl turned around expressionlessly.

He was young and powerful, and shouted in a rough voice: "What are you looking at?!"

Feng Chi: "Sorry to bother you!"

He turned around and ran away quickly.

He suspected that if he watched for a while longer, the other party would come over and hit him.

It's not that I'm afraid, it's just that there's no need to worry about this little kid. She must be in a bad mood.

Forget it, forget it, stop making people uncomfortable.

My handsome face has lost its function!

On the other side, Feng Yi's car moved forward along the newly built driveway.

The security guard at the intersection stopped the car: "Please show me the invitation letter."

In fact, when they saw the license plate, the person in charge of the intersection was mentally prepared.

When the car window is lowered, you don’t even need to read the invitation, you can identify the person just by looking at the person sitting inside.

This person is also the target that the higher-ups have ordered to focus on.

"Please go this way and continue along this road. There are signs guiding you to the parking lot."

When the car drove away, the security guard picked up his cell phone to report.

Feng Yi didn't pay attention to the security personnel's attitude. He arrived at the ancestral hall and looked around.

There was too much emotional information and it was too complicated. Feng Yi didn't expect to accept so much disturbing information directly from the beginning. Switch to shielding mode, avoid those distractions, and walk through them like a normal person.

A small green straw lantern rolled over.

Feng Yi leaned over to pick it up, took a few steps forward, and handed it to a little girl there.

The little girl only held a bare lantern pole in her hand, from which the lantern that rolled over fell.

The little girl holding the lantern pole looked at Feng Yi and slowly blushed.

Taking the straw lantern, the little girl said softly: "Thank you, brother."

Feng Chi rushed over:? ? ?

Sister, you are treating me differently!

Sign in on September 5th.
