The child's ancestor was exposed by Mimi's live stream at the beginning.

Chapter 14 Mom, I'm a little scared. Will Great-Grandpa hit me?

Hahaha, this little girl is probably totally confused.

The adult world is so convoluted; people often pretend they don't like something when they actually do.

[Little friend, are you filled with countless little questions?]

[Nini, don't cry, don't cry...]

The little girl cried so pitifully, her eyes full of confusion.

Netizens reacted in various ways, with some laughing uproariously and others feeling overwhelmed with sympathy.

The villagers considered it a common occurrence for children to cry and didn't take it too seriously. They gathered together to discuss stopping the cow's bleeding first, and then locking the cow up.

Since Shen Da Piezi is injured, we'll go to town and find another butcher.

Anyway, there are still two days until the sacrifice, so it's not too late to kill the cow tomorrow.

[Alas, what a pity, we won't be able to see the exciting scene of the cow slaughter today.]

[What a buzzkill! I love watching pigs and cows being slaughtered, it's so exciting!]

I only feel that life has meaning when I see life end.

Why are there so many perverts?

……

Netizens were disappointed.

After all, scenes like this, where cows and pigs are slaughtered live, are not common.

We only have the chance to see it during the Chinese New Year.

Of course, if it's a professional slaughtering pigs or cattle, no one would find it strange.

But that method is too mechanical and doesn't look very interesting.

What everyone wants to see is this primitive and wild process of slaughtering cattle in the village.

"It's just killing a cow."

"Who doesn't know how!"

Lu Liang ignored everything and walked straight toward the ox.

Upon seeing this, the villagers rushed forward to stop them.

"Great-Grandpa, you mustn't!"

Some people even reached out to pull Lu Liang, but Lu Liang now possessed the brute strength of five thousand jin, so who could hold him back?

Wow! He's actually serious.

Is there no one else in this village? The young master has to handle everything himself.

【This is utter nonsense! Even if you're naturally strong, does that mean you were born knowing how to butcher a cow?】

……

Netizens shook their heads, expressing their skepticism.

But the villagers couldn't persuade Lu Liang otherwise.

Lu Liang glanced at Shen Da Piezi's two apprentices.

"Bring all the knives over here."

There are specific techniques for slaughtering a cow. You need a skinning knife to skin it, a meat chopper to chop the meat, and a special deboning knife to remove the bones.

Shen Da Piezi always liked to bring all kinds of tools with him. A dozen or so gleaming knives were laid out there, making him look particularly professional.

Having witnessed Lu Liang's prowess, the two apprentices obediently handed over their knives like soldiers following orders.

The knife was ready, and the ox was tied up; it seemed Lu Liang wasn't joking.

Yang Mimi looked troubled.

"Are you really going to make him kill a cow?"

When netizens saw that pile of knives, they understood that Lu Liang was serious.

Allowing a ten-year-old child to kill a cow with a knife is just too indulgent, isn't it?

My goodness! The people in these villages are incredibly carefree.

Aren't you afraid he'll ruin the cow? Are you going to use scraps of meat to offer as sacrifices to your ancestors?

They say that doting mothers spoil their sons, but that's not true. We can't spoil this little rascal!

[Are you kidding me? Letting a child handle a knife is outrageous enough, but to make him kill a cow?]

[Wow, when I was ten, I couldn't even handle a chicken.]

[How dare you! Are you implying something about my brother? Chicken, you're not pretty at all!]

……

Even if others disagree, Lu Liang doesn't care.

Are we supposed to stop farming and growing crops just because a few crickets are chirping?

He walked around the big yellow ox, observing it carefully to get a clear understanding of its characteristics.

Since the goal is to slaughter a cow, it is usually necessary to first lay it down and tie it up.

The men of Suzhai Village gathered around, ready to help.

Since Great-Grandpa is determined to do it, they will do their part to assist him.

"Need not!"

"I can manage on my own!"

Unexpectedly, Lu Liang stopped them.

A person?

Everyone was stunned. How could one person kill a cow?

"Great-grandfather, slaughtering a cow is not something one person can do alone."

"Yes, when you stab a cow, it will definitely struggle and move around, so someone has to hold it down."

"When skinning cowhide, you need someone to help you pull the skin apart, otherwise it's difficult to peel."

"When cutting meat, it's best to mark the lines first before cutting, as different parts of the meat require different cooking methods."

……

The villagers were focused on helping Lu Liang and ensuring that his great-grandfather wouldn't act recklessly.

But now, Great-Grandpa is going to handle all of this by himself.

Everyone looked puzzled.

Netizens were even more confused.

Wow! Did I hear that right? He's going to slaughter a cow all by himself.

This is outrageous! Did he think that killing the cow would be the end of it?

[Is this young master going to his death all by himself?]

A ten-year-old's behavior is truly unpredictable!

……

Just then, my great-uncle returned.

He saw everyone gathered around watching the commotion, and Lu Liang was preparing to take action against the ox.

"Great-grandfather!"

He shouted, "What are you trying to do?"

"No, no, you mustn't!"

There are many rules and regulations surrounding sacrificial rites.

For example, in sacrificial rites, whole chickens and fish must be used; the chickens cannot be skinned, and the fish cannot have their scales or gills removed.

There are also taboos regarding the number of dishes placed on the sacrificial table; three, four, or five dishes should not be placed.

In the past, the "farewell meal" for condemned prisoners or those being beheaded consisted of three dishes.

The number four is a homophone for "death," which is considered unlucky.

The number "five" is a homophone for "disobedience," and it carries a negative connotation.

Usually, six or eight dishes are served, "six six six" or "eight eight eight," which is very festive.

Of course, it's best to display ten plates, symbolizing perfection.

The way large pieces of meat are cut is also very particular; they must be cut into neat squares.

Since it is an ancestor worship ceremony, it must be done in accordance with the rules passed down from our ancestors.

"I will not sit if the mat is not straight; I will not eat if the meat is not properly cut."

This is a rule set by Confucius.

The reason my great-uncle bought such a large cow was so that he could cut out large, square pieces of meat to bring glory to his ancestors.

If Lu Liang cuts the meat badly, how can he bring honor to the village?

To stop Lu Liang, Lu Jiangming hurriedly ran over.

Before they even got close, Lu Liang took off his clothes and picked up a boning knife.

what?

Yang Mimi was closest and saw it clearly; she was so shocked she almost popped her eyes out.

Grandpa Tianzu, when did you develop such muscles?

Lu Liang's shoulder blades were sunken in, while the muscles in other parts of his back bulged out, crisscrossing like the shape of a demon's skull.

Even the most difficult-to-train trapezius muscles have clear lines and distinct contours.

If you had asked her to call Tianzu "Grand Uncle" before, she definitely wouldn't have been willing.

But now, she couldn't be happier to have such a powerful great-uncle.

This makes me feel so safe!

Come to think of it, how could he have knocked out the bull without those muscles?

He's only ten years old and he's already this strong. What will he be like when he grows up?

The villagers had never seen Lu Liang look like this before, and their eyes lit up as they looked at him.

"Great-grandfather was so strong!"

"This is practically the aura of a god descending to earth!"

"Mom! I'm a little scared. Will Great-Grandpa hit me?"
