Chapter 493: Chapter 493: Strange Ancestor

Xia Xin saw Jiangli speak with such certainty that, with a mindset half believing and half doubting, he uttered an "Oh" and followed him out of the side hall.

Upon reaching the main hall, Xia Xin indeed saw that the statue of the ancestor facing away before had now turned around.

Not only that, the incense sticks he had placed in the censer were almost burned out.

The incense they bought could each burn for half an hour.

But from the time he had finished offering the incense to now, at most, only about ten minutes had passed.

And the nine sticks of incense were almost gone...

Xia Xin looked suspiciously at the ancestor’s statue, wondering to himself, could it be that the ancestor had eaten them?

"Little master, are we supposed to offer incense here?" While Xia Xin was lost in thought, Su Guoyu, who had been waiting for him to speak, saw that he remained silent and took the initiative to ask, "We don’t understand these things and aren’t sure about the rules; could you please tell us?"

He asked politely.

Xia Xin gave an awkward smile and said, "No trouble at all, there aren’t any special requirements, really. Here it’s mainly about sincerity, when offering incense, one should not have any miscellaneous thoughts, and not ponder whether such things are effective or not; you should never blow on the incense with your mouth..."

He explained some simple precautions and handed over some agarwood for Su Guoyu and the others to offer as incense.

Su Guoyu offered incense with great devotion, while Chen Yeming did so with some nervousness, his mind preoccupied with what Jiangli had said.

After they had hurriedly finished offering their incense, Xia Xin personally escorted them to the entrance.

"Brother—" Standing at the door, Chen Tianxu said to Xia Xin earnestly, "I’ll come to offer incense to the ancestor every day from now on."

Xia Xin couldn’t help but laugh and cry, "At your age, it’s more important to focus on your studies."

"Then can I come here to study?" Chen Tianxu immediately seized the opportunity to ask, "The last time I came here to do homework, I felt especially calm, not as restless as I am at home."

Xia Xin understood that Chen Tianxu was going through a critical time and was inevitably restless.

Jiaoyang Temple was indeed a place where one could feel peaceful and quiet.

Xia Xin nodded in agreement, "If it’s not too much trouble, come over then. But let’s make it clear, you must study diligently each time you come, and not get distracted by other thoughts."

"I understand!"

Chen Tianxu was overjoyed and nodded emphatically, "Brother, don’t worry, I will definitely study hard!"

Xia Xin patted his head.

Seeing this, Chen Yeming opened his mouth, wanting to object, but without any ground to do so, he gave up.

After watching them leave, Xia Xin returned to the side hall.

Jiangli was currently holding a stack of yellow ritual paper, ready to draw talismans.

Xia Xin approached, "Are the ancestors going to draw talismans again?"

"Mhm, we’ve used up a lot of the talisman paper and need to replenish the stock," Jiangli said as he took out his phone and handed it to Xia Xin, "Take a look, so many people have left messages wanting to buy talisman paper. They want to contact you; pay attention to that."

Xia Xin had already received some friend requests but hadn’t yet had the chance to deal with them.

Upon hearing this, he took out his phone to check the IDs in the forum’s private messages and added those interested parties.

Just as Jiangli had said, these people all wanted to purchase talisman paper, and in large quantities.

The supply of talisman paper they had on hand was definitely not enough.

However...

Thinking of the speed at which Jiangli drew talismans, Xia Xin wasn’t too worried.

After collecting the money from all the people who wanted to buy talisman paper, Xia Xin asked Jiangli, "Ancestor, when shall we send out these talisman papers?"

"Tomorrow," Jiangli said while continuing to draw talismans.

"Okay, I’ll let them know." After arranging the shipping time with everyone, Xia Xin put down his phone, sat down cross-legged, "Ancestor, I’ll draw talismans too!"
