Feng Yangyi had no choice but to sleep, he had been tossing and turning all night, and he didn't fall asleep at all. When he woke up in a daze the next morning, Feng Yangyi was surprised to find that Zhang Zhun had already led the soldiers of the escort team to run back and forth on the beach. He felt that the soldiers who had been wronged were not affected by bad emotions at all. Everyone, you chase me, and you are in good spirits. Feng Yangyi joined the running team without thinking.

At noon, it continues with dry food.

Still without any human figures, Xiahe City was like a dead city.

In the afternoon, Yang Guohua's pirate ship arrived on time.

It was already evening when all the remaining grain was loaded.

Zhang Zhun and the others got on the ship, and the pirate ship slowly moved eastward.

No one looked back to the west.

It's not worth it.

The warship sailed slowly, and the sea breeze continued to blow. The ocean in the dark night is extraordinarily quiet. Because it was already the middle of July, the moonlight was much brighter. The silver moonlight, sprinkled on the deck, brought a rare treat to everyone. The warriors were all on deck looking at the sea around them, enjoying this rare peace.

"What's that?"

"Firelight!"

"What a bright fire!"

Suddenly, someone on the deck screamed.

Zhang Zhun turned his head to look, and sure enough, he saw the north coast, reflecting the raging firelight, and the sky was illuminated red. The constant change of firelight completely obscured the moonlight.

The other fighters of the escort also noticed it and flocked to the left side of the deck to watch.

Yang Guohua introduced to Zhang Zhun and said, "My lord, it came from the ancient town. ”

Zhang Zhun said curiously: "Ancient town? ”

Yang Guohua said: "That's a ghost fire. ”

Everyone was so surprised.

Ghost fire?

What the hell?

Yang Weiguo asked suspiciously, "What is a ghost fire?" ”

Yang Guohua also said a little dazedly: "Today is July 11, and the day after tomorrow is July 14, Halloween." Have you all forgotten? ”

Everyone suddenly realized.

These days, everyone is thinking about fighting, training, fighting, training, and they are almost becoming robots, and they have forgotten the deadline at all. I didn't expect it to be July 14 so soon, and it was Halloween. Zhang Zhun also sighed secretly. Time flies so fast. Unconsciously, it will take half a year for me to come to the Ming Dynasty.

Every year on July 14, it is the traditional Ghost Festival, also known as the Menglan Festival, the Midyear Festival. Legend has it that on this night, the gate of the ghost will be opened, and countless evil spirits will pour out of it. In order to destroy these evil spirits and demons, the people of various places have different customs. Such as worshipping ancestors, going to the grave, lighting lotus lamps for the deceased to light the way home, Taoist temples holding grand ** meetings to pray for auspicious dojos, etc., and so on.

On the day of Halloween, many areas in Shandong are going to hold large-scale temple fairs, with various and colorful contents, which are most attractive to women and children. At night, it is even more lively, and the lights are often kept on all night. Generally, the temple fair begins five days before Halloween. The fire of the ancient town must be held at a large temple fair.

Feng Yangyi said casually: "In the past, during the Halloween Festival, people who smelled the incense sect would come to Lingshanwei to attract believers to the religion by holding a big temple fair. I wonder if they will come this year? ”

When Zhang Zhun heard the three words of Wenxiang Sect, his heart moved slightly, and he asked thoughtfully, "How do you know that they are Wenxiang Sect?" ”

He has no interest in these temple fairs, from the later generations, what kind of big scene has he not seen? No matter how big the scene is, it's not as big as the Yanjing Olympics, right? But he is quite concerned about the Smelling Fragrance Sect. There is no way, the fame of the Wenxiang Sect in Shandong is too big. The rebellion in Shandong is related to the Smelling Fragrance Sect. No matter who wants to beg for food in Shandong, they can't help but deal with the Wenxiang Sect.

For example, in the past six years of Chongzhen, Wang Yilun, the head of the Wenxiang Sect, launched an uprising in Jinxiang, Yanzhou Prefecture, which lasted half a year before it was suppressed. Although the Smelling Fragrance Sect is dormant for the time being, and there is no action, no one dares to guarantee that they will not suddenly appear and launch a huge uprising again.

The Wenxiang Sect is a branch of the White Lotus Sect, and its roots are very hidden, and it is impossible for the imperial court to eradicate them. In the long river of history in the future, the White Lotus Sect will continue to write its own history until it evolves into Hongmen or something in later generations. From a dialectical point of view, the White Lotus Sect is a force that can be used, used, and driven, but it must be guarded against, guided, and contained.

Feng Yangyi said: "At the beginning, I definitely didn't know, and I could get a lot of benefits from them. However, after a while, if you fully believe in them, you will have to make a blood alliance and have a initiation ceremony. When you join the church, you must listen to their arrangements and do things for them. If you don't, they will threaten you or even deliberately report you to the government and get you arrested by the government. ”

"Sometimes, you have to vote for your name. To vote for a name is to kill someone. After killing this person, you can really join the Smelling Fragrance Sect. After killing someone, your status in the sect is higher than that of ordinary people, and you will get more benefits. Everyone who joins the Church must continue to develop more people into the Church. The more people you develop, the higher your status. The development of two people can be the master of rice, the development of five people can be the master of incense, and there are altar masters, hall masters, Qu Shuai, Fang Shuai, Qu Shuai, Ministry Shuai or something, if you have tens of thousands of people, it is Qu Shuai or something. ”

Zhang Zhun is angry and funny, how can such a method sound so familiar? Pull people's heads and divide them according to levels? Could it be that some of the gangs in later generations were inspired by the White Lotus Sect? The wisdom of the ancients is truly not to be underestimated!

How did Feng Yangyi know this?

It stands to reason that outsiders shouldn't know about the White Lotus Sect!

Zhang Zhun squinted at Feng Yangyi.

Feng Yangyi said sadly: "I have a distant cousin, who joined the Smelling Fragrance Sect after killing someone, and now he is gone. His father has been running back and forth for three or four years in order to get him back, and all the things in the family have been ruined. ”

Zhang Zhun nodded, I see.

Feng Yangyi said sadly: "Perhaps, during the Jinxiang Uprising last year, he was already ......"

Zhang Zhun suddenly asked, "Are there many Smelling Fragrance Sect disciples in Xiahe Village?" ”

Feng Yangyi thought about it for a while, and said uncertainly: "I don't know about this...... There used to be quite a lot. But I killed a batch two years ago, and then they all disappeared. Even if someone is a member of the Smell Fragrance Sect, they will not make it public. ”

Zhang Zhun always felt that Zhao Feng was a little weird, as if he wanted to capture something, but he couldn't capture it accurately. If Zhao Feng is behind him, there is no other force to support him, unless Zhao Feng has a problem with his brain, he will turn himself away. With their little strength, how can they resist Wang Jian's counterattack? However, if there are other forces hidden behind it, everything seems to be justified.

It's just that what is this hidden force? Who are the decision-makers of the Smelling Fragrance Sect? Where are their leaders, organizers, commanders, and decision-makers hidden? What is their outward status?

"Guohua, stop the ship."

"Let's go up to the ancient town and have a look!"

Zhang Zhun said suddenly.

"My lord, are you going to the ancient town?"

Yang Guohua hurriedly asked.

Zhang Zhun nodded and said affirmatively: "Let's go up quietly and have a look." ”

Yang Guohua then ordered the pirate ship to dock.

The ancient town has only a small wharf, which is barely able to dock. After the pirate ship docked, Zhang Zhun took the soldiers of the escort team ashore, and Yang Guohua and others continued to stay on the ship. Ma Yi, Zhong Wuying, Yang Weiguo, Liu Jixiang and other snipers vigilantly embraced Zhang Zhun in the middle. The rest of the convoy fighters were also quite vigilant, and their fingers never left the trigger of the tiger gun.

No one knows why Zhang Zhun suddenly wants to go to the ancient town to see the excitement, it doesn't seem to be Zhang Zhun's style. Of course, they couldn't imagine that Zhang Zhun was purely a whim, and had no other purpose. He is also a normal person, and when he encounters something curious, he wants to take a look, isn't it strange. What's more, if you're in a bad mood now, it's good to come up and relax.

Slowly coming ashore, Zhang Zhun found that there were still quite a lot of people in the ancient town, coming and going, men and women, although they were ragged and thin, but the overall spirit was not bad. We, the Chinese people, no matter what kind of difficult situation we are in, can enjoy ourselves and survive tenaciously. At present, the world is difficult, and the people are not able to make a living, have no food, and are not clothed, but it does not prevent them from looking for a little joy on the 14th of July.

Seeing Zhang Zhun and the others carrying the tiger on their backs, the people of the ancient town were not very curious, at most they just glanced at them a few times, and walked past them. The sharp bayonet of the tiger is almost like a hoe in the eyes of the people of the ancient town. Such a scene made Zhang Zhun feel quite surprised. The people of the ancient town are really bold!

Zhang Zhun couldn't help but ask Feng Yangyi again, and was surprised to learn that this ancient town has always been a mixed place of three religions and nine streams, and anyone can appear here. Not to mention Zhang Zhun's team of dozens of people, even if a team of hundreds of people passes by here, it will not cause any stirring.

The northwest of the ancient town is the Lingshan Acropolis, and the southwest of the ancient town is the former place of Xiahe Village. This is the most remote corner of Laizhou Mansion, and at the same time it is close to Qingzhou Mansion, but the ruling core of Qingzhou Mansion is in the far north. In the far away place of the Emperor of the Mountain, the ruling force is weak, and the local power is naturally strong. If it is not necessary, outsiders will not provoke it easily.
