As a young man who grew up in a civilized living area in China, Li Weiji inherited some customs from his caregivers that were not tolerated by modern society.

Burning paper money is one of them.

Gao Cheng's "The Origin of Things" volume 9 records: "Since the Han Dynasty, the mourners have all had 瘗 (yì) money", and it is also recorded in the "Historical Records: The Biography of Cool Officials": "There will be people who steal filial piety garden (yì) money". According to research, during the Wei, Jin, and Southern Qi dynasties, people had generally used paper money to sacrifice to the spirit.

The caretaker told a legend about burning paper money, and the story was very philistine.

It is said that during the Eastern Han Dynasty, after Cai Lun improved papermaking, his business flourished and he made a lot of money. Brother Cai Mo's sister-in-law Huiniang was quite jealous, and the two agreed on a way to get rich. One day, my brother cried and said that his wife had died violently last night and had been put in a coffin. When people gathered and listened to the sound of the coffin, everyone opened it, Huiniang jumped out, and said that when it came to the underworld, the king of Hades asked her to grind. Because her husband burned a lot of money, the imps all scrambled to replace her, and she gave the money to Hades, and Hades let her go. Cai Mo deliberately asked, "I didn't give you any money?" Hui Niang pointed to the burning fire: "That's money!" In the underworld, paper is money. Cai Mo immediately took two bundles of paper to burn, saying that his father and mother in the underworld would suffer less. After the news spread, within a few days, Cai Mo's paper was sold out.

Li Weiji naturally did not believe in these illusory fabrications, but this did not prevent him from kneeling on the roof of the 249-story building, ignoring the warnings of the peace system to light the fire and burn the paper.

Everyone knows that yellow paper can't reach the underworld, and everyone knows that green smoke can't go to heaven.

But looking at the fire, looking at the gray paper, he could see the faces of his parents.

As human beings, there are inevitably weak links in feelings, and everyone longs for a dock where they can dock safely.

We need a ritual to connect our hearts that have nowhere to put with the most solid docks in the spiritual world.

The yellow paper burned out, the rice wine was spilled, and Li Weiji surrendered to the police officers waiting not far away.

This happens every year, for eight years.

It is forbidden to burn paper money on Qingming Festival.

If you want to pay tribute to your ancestors, you can incense in the virtual mourning hall opened up by [Deep Blue].

It is a very simple operation, enter the identity code of the ancestor in the center of the neuron network, the image of the ancestor will automatically pop up, the incense burner in front of the image will be clicked by hand, the red light will be lit up, and the incense will be completed.

After deducting 1 credit point, paying a 500 fine and a 1000 cleaning fee, Li Weiji returned to his residence, and Light Blue handed over a glass of milk in time.

In the company of light blue, Li Weiji stayed up until 4 o'clock in the morning, and finally fell asleep on light blue's thighs.

The living area at 4 a.m. is not quiet, at least in the monitoring data of [Deep Blue], almost every household's entertainment equipment is running wildly.

As Li Weiji lamented, when not working, the real world is boring and scarce, so the virtual entertainment world will be popular.

How many people plunge into the movie world and pretend to be the main character, how many people are wrapped in psychedelic music as if they are in heaven, and how many people are willing to upgrade and play equipment repeatedly in the game.

Li Weiji slept very hard this night, until Li Yi knocked on the door for help.

There is only one person in this world who can force Li Yi to shout for help, and that is Xiao Chang.

Don't think about it, it must be another family story of Xiao Chang pretending to be a hero to eradicate rape and eliminate evil, and the villain Li Yi died by a sword.

The sleepy-eyed Li Weiji yawned and opened the door, only to see that Li Yi was covered with red dye from head to toe, and his eyes were so muddy that he couldn't open them.

"The girls are crazy. I came down and hid. ”

After condemning Li Yi for not taking responsibility for his father, Li Weiji instructed Light Blue to fill it with hot water, and then found a change of clothes from the inner room and threw it on the sofa.

Don't ask Li Weiji's family why they have Li Yi's clothes.

Li Yi soaked in the bath, and Li Weiji stood outside the bathroom.

"Lao Yi, I want you to help with something."

"What's the matter?"

"How effective was the previous copy of [Purifying Sin]?"

"Very good."

"I want to try."

Li Yi ran to Li Weiji with a body of shower gel bubbles: "What's wrong with you?" ”

Seeing Li Weiji's appearance of wanting to speak and stopping, Li Yi wiped the water stains on his face and asked again: "Lao Ji, what happened to you?" ”

"Don't be nervous. You wash first, and I'll organize the language. ”

Taking advantage of the time when Li Yi changed clothes, Li Weiji repeated what he wanted to say in his mind several times, and finally selected a set of word orders that would not cause violent reactions.

Under Li Weiji's well-organized narration, Li Yi'an quietly listened to the cause and effect.

Rao is Li Weiji's words were as calm as possible, but Li Yi still cried.

"I always thought that my uncle and aunt died naturally."

"That's just me deceiving myself."

"Is it after the holidays? Okay, I'll take a day off from the factory. ”

"You can't talk to Miao Miao about this."

Li Yi nodded and said, "I know." ”

Li Yi left his dirty clothes behind, and Li Weiji collapsed on the sofa like a dead fish.

He was exhausted by retelling the cause of his parents' death to Li Yi just now, and he tried to take a deep breath to relieve the pressure, but his nose was filled with the smell of Liushen Flower Water.

"I warned you not to wash your clothes with toilet water."

Li Weiji roared at the light blue, and the light blue machine said, "I didn't." ”

The robot doesn't lie, it doesn't wash its clothes with toilet water, and the smell of toilet water in its nose is from 12 years ago.

Li Weiji only felt that his throat was dry, and countless dust rushed into his respiratory tract, he choked his neck, covered his nose, closed his eyes, and inhaled carefully.

Light Blue walked up to Li Weiji and asked mechanically, "Do you call the emergency center?" ”

Li Weiji didn't have time to answer, he covered his mouth and shrank under the dining table, his eyes quickly scanning the surroundings, like a frightened mouse.

After a few moments, he poked his head out of the dining table to make sure the whole world wasn't trembling, and then he was back to normal.

Post-traumatic stress disorder, a deep barrier that allows you to feel smell again.

Come quickly, suppress quickly.

"You can crush my home and my parents, but you can't crush me Li Weiji."

It's like an overcomer's declaration, and it's more like a backbone that has to be propped up.

The boring holiday passed very slowly, and after listening to a full 36 hours of cross talk, Li Weiji stayed up until Thursday.

The appointed day with Suss has arrived.

Before dawn, Li Yi sneakily knocked on the door of Li Weiji's house.

"Aren't you late?" Li Yi changed into the butcher's overalls, "Why are your eyes so red?" Didn't sleep? ”

Li Weiji shook his head and said: "Don't mention it, I can't sleep, I listened to cross talk for 36 hours." Let's go into the game and turn on sleep mode in a while. ”

Li Yi said: "I told Miao Miao that I was on a business trip today, but I also had to go back before 8 o'clock in the evening. ”

Li Weiji looks at his watch, April 7, 2050, 5:23.

"Have breakfast first and enter the game at 6 o'clock on time. Excluding the forgiveness time, we can play for about 13 hours, and almost 6 days in the game. Be mentally prepared. ”

Li Yi stared at Li Weiji, and Li Weiji stared at Li Yi.

"See what?"

"Where's breakfast?"
