It's the day, early in the morning.

Lian Ge, who had slept all night, woke up from his sleep.

After waking up, Lian Ge didn't stay in bed too long, sat up straight, and left the bed.

After a few moments,

Outside the hall, under the eaves of the courtyard, Lian Ge brushed his teeth while staring at the entire sky above his head with the eyes of heaven.

"Gollum...... Burst. ”

Spit out the water that cleaned the toothpaste foam on the edge of the yard, Lian Ge looked at the sky above Lianjia Village and showed a smile,

"With people as pens, gas as ink, and earth as paper, this talisman seems to be well drawn. ”

Looking at the barrier that enveloped the entire Lian Family Village, Lian Ge smiled and whispered to himself.

After turning around and putting the mouthwash cup and toothbrush back in their original place, Lian Ge returned to the hall.

After taking a glass of water for himself next to the hall and sitting down at the table in the hall with the cup in hand, Lian Ge looked at the courtyard door outside the hall.

"Come in. ”

Lian Ge glanced at the courtyard door and said calmly.

As the words fell, two black mist lingered through the courtyard gate, and re-transformed into two people in black suits at the courtyard gate.

"Celestial Master ......"

The two prefectural officials respectfully bowed to Lian Ge.

"You are from the Exit and Entry Administration Department of the Prefecture Government?" Lian Ge asked after glancing at the two ghosts.

"Yes, Heavenly Master, we are civil servants under the Exit and Entry Administration Department of the Prefecture Government. One of them replied loudly, and then took the initiative to explain,

"Before, Heavenly Master, you gave a ghost handwritten message, so that I can wait for it to be dealt with leniently, and now that ghost has entered the underworld, I have come to report to you, Heavenly Master. ”

Hearing this, Lian Ge looked at the two ghosts and nodded, signaling that he understood.

Immediately afterwards, Lian Ge raised his head again, looked at the barrier that shrouded Lianjia Village, and asked the two ghosts,

"When did you get here?"

"Yesterday evening, after you rested, we arrived outside your mansion. Seeing that Heavenly Master, you have rested, we didn't dare to disturb. ”

The ghost who spoke out before answered, then hesitated, and added with some embarrassment,

"It's just that now, we can't seem to get out......"

Hearing this, Lian Ge couldn't help but smile,

I can only sigh that these two ghosts came too closely.

But......

Lian Ge looked at the two ghosts, smiled and smiled, and suddenly had another idea,

"I'm really sorry, the village is preparing to worship the ancestors during the Midyear Festival, so I have to take some precautions. ”

"Don't dare. It's because we were too reckless and didn't notify the Celestial Master in advance, causing trouble to the Celestial Master. ”

"However, since you two can't get out for a while, can you do me a favor?"

Hearing this, the civil servants of the two governments almost did not hesitate, and bowed directly and said:

"But it is sent by the Heavenly Master. ”

Looking at the two ghosts, Lian Ge smiled, and then continued,

"That's right, just like I said before, to worship ancestors on the Midyear Festival, you must always take some precautions. Although there is a barrier now, I am still worried that something will go wrong.

So I hope you can help defend against any problems with the barrier and goblins invade. ”

"I'll wait until I swear to complete the Heavenly Master's order. The public servants of the two governments replied in a deep voice.

"It's not necessary to swear to death. I think most of the ghosts will run away when they smell the breath of the underworld officials. Lian Ge smiled and said,

Hearing this, the two prefectural government officials also smiled in agreement.

"Then this matter will be troublesome for the two of you. ”

"Don't dare. One of the oni replied respectfully, and then continued,

"Heavenly Master, we will retire first. ”

"Okay. Lian Ge nodded.

As the words fell, the two prefecture officials then turned into two lingering black mist and disappeared into the courtyard.

......

After retracting his gaze and taking a sip of the water glass, Lian Ge stood up again and walked into the bedroom.

took out the white robe he had worn before from the bedroom, and Lian Ge shook it,

"Poof~"

Then I flipped it over and put it on my body.

Looking down, Lian Ge smiled slightly,

didn't stay any longer, Lian Ge put on a robe like this, stepped out of the old mansion, and walked straight towards the ancestral hall.

......

The ancestral hall is built on a wide flat land at the end of the village, in addition to the ancestral hall itself, there is a wide flat area in front of it, which is often used to dry grain and grain on weekdays, and it has become the main place to worship ancestors at this moment.

In the area, there are already a lot of people gathered at this moment, not only from Lianjia Village, but even many people from other villages who rushed over to join in the fun.

"Master Lian...... Master Lian ......"

As soon as Lian Ge stepped into the area, the people around him surrounded Lian Ge, and everyone seemed to know him.

"Knock knock...... What are they doing here, there's nothing to do, so I'm going to help build the altar. ”

Behind the crowd, Uncle Tai took a cane and gave it to one person, and everyone dispersed in an instant.

"Xiaoge, here. After the crowd dispersed, Uncle Tai walked over,

Seeing this, Lian Ge also greeted him,

"Xiaoge, look at it, it's the altar arranged according to your requirements, you see if there is a problem, if there is a problem, there is still some time to rearrange it,"

Uncle Tai said as he walked towards the ancestral hall.

Lian Ge naturally walked towards the ancestral hall while following the words of his uncle.

I saw that in the front yard of the ancestral hall, at the entrance of the main hall where the tablet was enshrined, was the altar.

It is said to be an altar, but it is a long table, on which some melons and fruits are enshrined, three animal heads, and two small incense burners are placed on both sides.

In front of the desk, there is also a large tripod, and there is a thick layer of incense ash remaining in the tripod, which is the trace of so many years of ancestor worship.

Next to the desk, in the front yard of the ancestral hall, there are still many people busy, helping to set up the altar, helping to tear the paper money, and the people who have invited to play the ritual music are cleaning up their respective musical instruments.

"Nothing is a problem. ”

Lian Ge, who followed Uncle Tai into the front yard of the ancestral hall, nodded and said after sweeping the circle.

"It's fine. Uncle Tai nodded, and then asked again, "That little song, do you see if there is anything else to prepare?"

Hearing this, Lian Ge shook his head first, and then continued,

"Just do what you said before. ”

Hearing this, Uncle Tai first nodded in response, then hesitated, and then turned to ask again,

"Xiaoge, what happened before...... It's a thing that the incense wax burns quickly......"

"It's been resolved. Lian Ge smiled and replied directly.

"That's good. Uncle Tai nodded, seemingly much more relaxed, "Then ...... Xiaoge now?"

"I may need to find a relatively quiet place right now, where I can spend time alone and prepare for the afternoon ancestor worship. ”

Lian Ge felt the little mana he had left, and replied.

"Then let's be inside the ancestral hall, it's quiet in the ancestral hall now. Uncle Tai thought for a while and said.

"That's fine. Hearing this, Lian Ge nodded,

"That little song, do you need anything? I'll find someone to get it for you. ”

"No need, Uncle Tai, go get busy. ”

After shaking his head and chatting casually with Uncle Tai, Lian Ge bypassed the altar and stepped into the room where the ancestors' tablets were enshrined.

As soon as I entered the house, some noisy sounds outside the house suddenly seemed to be cut off.

Glancing at the many tablets enshrined in front of him, Lian Ge retracted his gaze, casually pulled a futon made of straw from the side, threw it to the side, and then sat cross-legged himself.

Concentrating, Lian Ge gradually sank his mind completely into the mana transfer in his body.

Gradually, the mana in the body gradually recovered.

Outside the house, everyone was also nervous and methodical in making final preparations before the ancestor worship ceremony.

Time passed slowly.
