Chapter 12 Spend a lifetime of luck

Lethe Riverside.

"Ye Dingxi, do you think I should continue to help Hu Ran?"

I buried my head in petting the cat, and inserted my fingers into the fluff on the back of his neck to comb lightly.

Meow......

The orange cat squinted comfortably, and its tail shook for a while, like a little old man basking in the sun.

"Aunt Eastern!"

Not far away, a white shadow waved at me.

I turned my head to see my black and white nephews.

"Little black and white, it's been a few days!"

"Aunt Dongtian, are you soaking your feet here again?"

Xiaobai's footsteps were so cheerful that he ran over, as if with a bit of human warmth, and when he squatted beside me, he only felt warm, like a spring breeze.

"It is often said that health should be maintained as soon as possible. ”

I stretched out my hand to put my hand around my nephew's shoulder, and said seriously: "Don't look at my aunt's young appearance and national beauty, it's actually time for maintenance." ”

"Holy. ”

An eerie cold wind blew, and I knew that the black-faced god who was not to be messed with was coming.

Cough.

I let go of my hand and sat down honestly, and my mouth was not idle.

"Dabai nephew, you two often go in and out of the yin and yang worlds, and there is a question, my aunt wants to consult. ”

"Auntie, if you ask, I must know everything. Xiaobai's eyes crooked with a smile.

"This is the ghost of the underworld, if you still want to go back to the world and fulfill their unfulfilled wishes, is there any feasible way?"

"This ......"

Xiaobai looked embarrassed.

On the side, Xiao Hei's face was already sinking like the bottom of a casserole, and he said in a cold and hard tone: "All the two worlds have their own order, aunt, you are an old seniority in the underworld, do you want us to be the younger generation to teach you the rules of the yin and yang worlds?"

You see, this is how Little Black clips my tail.

It's really too annoying.

I straightened my face, full of displeasure, and pinched the cat's ears and pinched them hard.

Meow!

The orange cat in my arms was in pain, and slipped out of my arms, and disappeared into a patch of grass.

Xiao Bai was considerate and comforted softly: "Auntie, with my hundred years of experience in the world with Xiao Hei, this mortal, even if he dies at the end of his life, he will have regrets, and what is not perfect is the world." ”

Yes.

I only care about feeling sorry for Hu Ran when he was alive, but I forget that there are clouds and sunny days in the world.

If I want to return to Yang because of the regrets and dissatisfaction before my death, I am afraid that my black and white nephews will die in the line of duty in a few years, and the order of the Yin and Yang worlds will also be chaotic.

"It's just ......"

Xiaobai suddenly turned around, and said with a smile: "Auntie, have you forgotten the Midyear Festival?"

"That's right!"

I stood up and shook Xiaobai's hands excitedly.

Midyear Festival.

This is an important festival in the underworld!

On that day, the ghosts and tortured ghosts of the whole house can rest, and in addition to temple fairs and celebrations that are modeled after the human world, there is also the opportunity to transfer lots.

As long as you turn to your own numbered ghost, you can return to the yang world when the ghost door is wide open, see relatives and friends, meet your partner, meet your elders, see your leaders, see your children, repay your kindness and revenge, as long as you return to the underworld before the ghost gate closes.

I counted on my fingers, and at the moment, it was exactly two months away from the mid-year festival on July 14.

Hu Ran has hope!

"Snort. ”

I was so excited with Xiaobai that my eyes were starry, and Xiaohei, who was left out in the cold, snorted and poured a scoop of cold water on us.

"There are tens of thousands of ghosts in the underworld, and there are only a hundred places that can win the lottery, and it takes all the luck of the next life to be selected, and even if my aunt wants to go to the world, the number of the ghost is not in the lottery. ”

Ahem.

I cleared my throat, assumed the posture of an elder, and said lukewarmly: "Xiao Hei, do you know the way of survival in the underworld?"

"How to survive?!"

Xiaobai was aroused by curiosity first, and looked at me with big eyes.

Xiao Hei had a cold face and didn't answer my words.

I was left to dry for a few seconds, and my face did not change and I had to ask myself: "The way to survive in this underworld is to think openly, think beautifully, think far, be a man and have dreams, why can't you be a ghost?"

"Yes, Auntie, you said it so well!"

Xiaobai's strength was on the stage, and he looked at me with admiration.

On the side, Xiao Hei grabbed his shoulder, pulled him back a few steps, turned his head and said as he walked: "You go with me to report to Master Cui." ”

"Oh, good...... Aunt Dongtian, let's go first, and we'll talk another day!"

Xiaobai was carried away and could only wave at me.

I accepted his reluctant autumn waves, and secretly worried about Xiaobai.

With such a moody brother by his side, he really pitied my big white nephew.

Distance.

Xiaobai said aggrievedly: "Brother, why did you take me away again?"

"You have to listen to Aunt Dong's words. "Little Black is very serious.

Xiaobai was even more aggrieved.

"My aunt is my ghost life enlightenment teacher......"

Small courtyard.

When I returned, the orange cat was nowhere to be seen.

In the past, when it was just a small Qian, I didn't care much about where it went, anyway, the underworld said that it was not big, it was not small, and it could not get out of the door of the underworld.

It's just that it's different now, Ye Dingxi also uses the body of an orange cat, if there is anything good, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to see him again.

"Xiao Qian, ......"

I called around, and I saw a large lump of fat balls like marmalade squeezing in through the fence.

"Meow ......"

It replied to me, drenched and dripping.

"You're going to the Lethe River again?" I squinted.

These days, Ye Dingxi doesn't know what kind of dementia he has committed, and he has to throw himself into the Lechuan River every once in a while, as if he is looking for something.

"Meow ......"

It shook off the water and consciously burrowed into the carpet under the porch.

I sat down next to it and smiled, "There's good news, do you want to hear it?"

"Meow ......"

I nodded and said to myself: "If you want to hear me, I'll tell you, Midyear Festival, Hundred Ghosts Night Walk, you should know, right?"

Ye Dingxi is a person who can recognize the day wandering god at a glance, and I don't need to explain too much about the origin of the Midyear Festival and the night walk of the hundred ghosts.

In fact, there is nothing to explain, this is a custom that existed when the underworld was first built.

Hyakki Night Walking.

As the name suggests, on the day of the Midyear Festival, a hundred wooden sticks are shaken out of the lottery holder, and a hundred lucky ghosts are allowed to go around the world.

"Hey, if you want to say that this hundred ghosts walk at night, it's not good. ”

I propped my chin and muttered to myself: "In previous years, every time I returned to the Midyear Festival, there were always ghosts who didn't want to come back, and the two brothers had to be busy for a long time to catch those ghosts back. ”

"But Lao Cui also said that there is always a delay in retribution, and some ghosts have been grudging for a long time, so they want to be happy for a while, even if they come back and increase the punishment, then they are happy. ”

"I naturally can't understand this mood, but Hu Ran was born pitiful, if she can return to the yang world to see her sweetheart Chenhui......"

"By the way, Chen Hui, do you know? Hu Ran's fiancΓ© is also a little star in the entertainment industry, and his reputation is definitely not as good as yours, but I heard that he is also a beautiful man!"

I chattered for a long time, and the orange cat's fur was almost dry, and it came out of the blanket and looked at me, as if it had something to say.
