"This ...... I didn't mean that, it's just that this matter is too weird, it's not the ancestor who appeared, why did the Di family have strange things one after another? Di Ying cried with a sad face, spreading her hands helplessly.

Di Qing turned to look at Li Canghai and asked, "What did you find?" ”

Li Canghai smiled slightly, and he said lightly: "Although I am not a Taoist priest, I also know some spells. Later, I will do this to dispel the evil atmosphere for everyone. ”

"You mean there's a demon at work?" Di Ying asked with wide eyes.

"Di Gong has been a hero in the world all his life, how can he come out to scare his family, I guess there must be a demon pretending to be Di Gong." Li Canghai's righteous words seem to be true.

"If it's really a demon, you really know how to catch a demon?" Di Ying had a distrustful look on her face.

Li Canghai laughed and said quite confidently: "I can't hide it, I have learned from Lu Dongbin and Lu Immortals, and I have learned strange arts, don't say a few little demons, it is the underworld, I have also gone through it." ”

Li Canghai said, squeezing his eyes at Di Qing.

Di Qing glanced at him, her eyes were full of surprise, and she quickly reacted, nodded and said, "Second brother, he really went to the 'Netherworld Mansion'!" ”

Di Qing wondered in her heart, he was Lu Dongbin's disciple? How could I not have heard of it? However, when it comes to 'Netherworld', I can be regarded as having walked once!

In the middle of the night, in the courtyard of Difu, there was a long table, which was covered with yellow cloth, and on which were placed incense burners, peach swords and some runes.

Li Canghai stood behind the table and closed his eyes to recuperate, and when everyone gathered, his eyes widened, he picked up the peachwood sword, and gestured to the air with words.

Di Qing stared at him with interest on the side, seeing that his expression was solemn, and his moves and styles were so clear-eyed, it didn't seem like he was joking at all.

"Qiankun heaven and earth, the spirit of yin and yang, obey the edict of heaven, protect my true form. Haste as a law, edict! ”

Li Canghai dipped his finger in the black dog's blood, drew a few symbols on those runes, and then exhaled in a deep voice: "You can keep you safe and sound with these runes." ”

Di Ying hurriedly ordered his subordinates to distribute the runes, and picked up a rune by himself and put it away closely.

After doing the rituals, it was late at night, and Li Canghai relieved everyone again, and then went back to his room to rest.

Di Qing followed behind him and asked curiously, "Li Canghai, is there really a demon in my family?" Do you really know how to spell? ”

Li Canghai looked around and whispered, "Of course I don't know how to spell, I'm lying to them." ”

"Huh? You don't know how to spell? Di Qing's eyes widened and she exclaimed incredulously.

"Shhh In this way, you can investigate the situation with confidence. ”

Di Qing blinked her eyes and said suddenly: "I see, then have you found anything unusual?" ”

Li Canghai frowned, shook his head and said, "I have checked the clan hall, and there is nothing unusual. However, the only way to do this is to wait for Di Gong to appear again, so that we can know the specific situation. ”

"But how do you know when the ancestors will appear?" Di Qingxiu frowned slightly, and asked with a headache.

"I asked Brother Ling and the domestic servants, and I found that there seems to be a pattern in these few times Di Gong appeared." Li Canghai groaned.

"Regularity? What is the law? Di Qing looked dazed.

"Di Gong's first manifestation has been a total of nine times to the present, with every three times as a cycle, and the law of Di Gong's each manifestation is one, three, and five."

Seeing that Di Qing was confused, Li Canghai explained to her seriously: "Di Gong's first manifestation was on the first day of the junior high school, the second time was on the fourth day of the junior high school, and the third time was on the ninth day of the junior high school. This is the first cycle, and the second cycle starts with the ninth month, followed by the twelfth and seventeenth, and so on. ”

Di Qing counted carefully with her fingers, and found that it was indeed as Li Canghai said.

"How did you discover this strange pattern?" Di Qing blinked her apricot eyes and asked enviously.

Li Canghai smiled lightly and said: "This is a kind of thinking and logical knowledge, as long as you learn to find the key, you can find the law." ”

"But what does this have to do with the apparitions of the ancestors?" Di Qing said with a frown.

"The last time Di Gong appeared was five days ago, and if I'm not mistaken, tomorrow will be a new cycle." Li Canghai looked at the eaves, and it was raining at night at this time.

Di Qing's eyes lit up, and she said in surprise: "You mean, tomorrow the ancestor will appear again?" ”

Li Canghai didn't answer her, but looked at the deep night with a deep gaze, and said in a deep voice: "Whether someone is a ghost or really Di Gong's manifestation will be seen tomorrow." ”

Early the next morning.

Li Canghai got up very early, and Luoyang City in the early morning was shrouded in light rain and mist, without the noise of the day, giving people a particularly peaceful and quiet feeling.

The rain was still falling, but the servants of the Di family had already gotten up to clean the courtyard.

Li Canghai held up an oil-paper umbrella painted with peonies, asked a servant for the direction of Xia Di Cemetery, and disappeared into the rain.

Di Cemetery is located in the eastern city of Luoyang, outside the world-famous White Horse Temple mountain gate.

Di Renjie has done his best for the Jiangshan Society all his life, and it is said that when he died, the government and the opposition mourned, and Wu Zetian cried and said: The court is empty.

Therefore, Wu Zetian's imperial decree was promulgated and Di Renjie was buried in the royal temple, next to the White Horse Temple, to comfort his heroic soul.

To this day, there are still many people who come to the White Horse Temple to offer incense, and they do not forget to worship Di Gong.

Di cemetery is in the shape of a circle, made of bluestone, there is a tablet in front of the tomb, on the book: the tomb of the famous minister Di Liang.

The smoke and rain are miserable, and there are several stone beasts standing around, and when you step into it, a sense of solemnity arises spontaneously.

Li Canghai had the heart of pilgrimage, knelt in front of the tomb with a solemn expression and kowtowed a few times, and then carefully observed around the tomb.

Because the Di Cemetery is close to the White Horse Temple, there are often monks who come to clean it, and it is very tidy.

Li Canghai looked at it for a long time and didn't find anything abnormal, so he stood quietly in front of the tomb with an umbrella.

"This donor, the rain is strong and the wind is sudden, beware of the cold air entering the body!"

I don't know when, a novice suddenly appeared next to Li Canghai, and said to him with an oil-paper umbrella.

Li Canghai looked at the novice and said curiously: "Master, you also came to clear the tomb of Di Gong when it was raining?" ”

"Amitabha, Di Gong is loyal to the country, loves the people like a son, is really a Bodhisattva in the world, and this temple should be dedicated to the Buddha." As he spoke, the monk went to the tomb to inspect and clean up the debris.

Li Canghai thought for a while and asked, "Master, has anything strange happened to the Di Cemetery recently?" ”

"Since the little monk entered the temple, he would come here every day, and nothing strange happened." The monk cleaned up the dead branches around him, scratched his head, and said, "However, the incense burner in front of the tomb has traces of being moved. ”

"When did this happen?" Li Canghai asked casually.

"About a month ago, when the little monk came to inspect, he found that there were some deviations in the direction of the incense burning copper stove, so he concluded that someone had moved the incense burner." The monk pointed to a half-human-high incense burner in front of the tomb and said.

Li Canghai walked to the side of the incense burner, he leaned down and took a closer look, this incense burner had been placed for decades, and it had already left traces on the bluestone bricks.

The hind foot of the incense burner is indeed out of the insignificant distance of half a fingernail, and it is difficult to detect such subtleties.

"The master's observation is impressive!" Li Canghai exclaimed.

The monk recited the Buddha's name and said humbly: "The little monk will come here every day, and he has long been familiar with every grass and tree, brick and stone here. However, this may also be the unintentional push of the pilgrims, and the little monk did not take it to heart. ”

Li Canghai patted the incense burner, this incense burner was made of pure copper, not to mention hundreds of catties, and he couldn't push the incense burner with all his might.
