Ling Xuan and I were carefully thinking about what kind of strange thing Zhong Yuan Ri had, so naturally we didn't notice the change in Yi He's expression.

It wasn't until Yi He suddenly opened his mouth that Ling Xuan and I were really startled, and I couldn't help but feel a little annoyed in my heart.

However, seeing Yi He's reaction like this, we knew in our hearts that he must have discovered Zhongyuanri's secret, and it was difficult to hide his excitement for a while, so we didn't have time to blame him, but hurriedly asked.

"Yihe, what did you find?"

"Yihe, what did you find?"

Seeing the anxious appearance of the two of us, Yi He did not answer directly.

He waved his hand lightly to signal the two of us to remain calm, and then carefully confirmed his thoughts in his mind before he spoke excitedly.

"The problem lies in the name of Zhongyuanri."

"The problem is in the name of Zhongyuanri?"

Although Ling Xuan was worried about Jinghong in his heart, from Chunting's attitude, he also felt the crisis of Zhongyuan Ri, so he had already cheered up at this moment, and after hearing what Yi He said, he couldn't help blurting out with doubts.

"Han Chuan just said very clearly, after the Eastern Han Dynasty, Taoism believed that the heavenly officials were blessed, the local officials forgave their sins, and the water officials relieved their misfortunes, among which Zhongyuan is on behalf of the local officials, so this day was named Zhongyuan Day, what's wrong with this?"

"The local official is one of the gods believed in by the Chinese folk, Taoism worships the three gods of heaven, earth and water, also called the three officials, among which the local official is called Zhongyuan Erpin Forgiveness Official, the Emperor of Qingxu, and belongs to the Shangqing Realm."

Yi He didn't rush to answer Ling Xuan's question, but talked to me about the so-called local officials.

"Legend has it that the local officials are formed by the spirit of the Yuan Cave and the essence of the extremely yellow, and the chief lord of the five emperors and five mountains of the earth immortals, who come to the world on the 15th of July every July to abstain from sins and forgive people's sins, which is the so-called forgiveness of sins."

The stakes are so high, I really can't stand this kind of torture, and I can't help but play and interrupt when I hear this.

"Yihe, don't beat around the bush, what do you mean?"

"Don't worry, my lord, I'll explain it to you carefully."

Ever since the underground imperial tomb passed with me, Yi He has always had great respect for me, and at this moment, when he heard my question, his expression was serious, and he began to talk seriously about the mystery in this matter.

"In the legend, the heavenly officials and the human officials are the representatives of the Emperor of Heaven stationed in the world, and they are respectively inspected by the Emperor of Heaven on the three yuan days to determine rewards and punishments.

"It is said that on the day of the Middle Yuan, the underground palace will open the door of the underworld when the sin is forgiven, and on the day the door of the underworld is opened, all the ghosts will leave the underworld to accept the examination, and the soul of the master will return home to take a look at the descendants of the future generations, and the soul of the owner will wander the world, wandering everywhere like a hundred ghosts walking at night, so this day is also commonly known as the Halloween Festival."

"This is also the reason why Taoists and Buddhists attach great importance to Zhongyuan Day, which is the day when the contact between the two worlds of yin and yang is the most intensive, and it is most prone to turmoil, so they will choose this day to sacrifice, the purpose is to comfort the deceased and let him return to the underworld with peace of mind."

I've heard the same legend as I've heard about it at this time, but I've always just taken it as a story, and I've never thought about it seriously, and even though I'm serious about it at the moment, I'm still a little dismissive.

"Yihe, this is just folklore, what does it have to do with us?"

"Heh, it's just folklore?"

After hearing my disdainful voice, Chun Ting, who had not spoken for a long time, suddenly snorted coldly, and his tone was not good.

"Han Chuan, a hundred causes must have results, people will never make up these stories for no reason, all legends must have their corresponding roots, not to mention that you have already seen so many unbelievable things, are you still so disdainful of these things?"

"What if there is a corresponding root?"

Hearing Chun Ting's words, I retorted to him with a little dissatisfaction.

"Because of their short-sightedness, the ancients would make up a convincing reason when they saw something incomprehensible, and in the case of false rumors, it became a legend for later generations."

"Therefore, even if Zhongyuan Day really has its corresponding roots, I don't think it is the so-called forgiveness of sins by local officials and the night walk of a hundred ghosts, in my opinion, it is just a natural phenomenon that people at that time could not understand, and the ancients could not understand it, so they turned it into ghosts and gods, so there is such a false legend."

"Ridiculous, nonsense."

In the car at this moment, Chunting is the only one who can accuse me so unceremoniously.

"I admit that what you said does have some truth, but it is not absolute, if according to what you say, then how do you explain the dream you dreamed of since you were a child, and how do you explain the inheritance left to you in the Qin Sword of Mu Gongzhen, are they all false?"

"This ......"

What Chunting said was like a sharp needle, piercing my weakest part, and I hesitated for a long time, but in the end I was still speechless.

I have to admit that what Chunting said is quite reasonable, even I have so many unexplainable secrets on my body, so how can I easily veto these stories that have been passed down for thousands of years?

However, even though I knew I was wrong, I still reluctantly responded to him.

"Even if these things are real, what does that have to do with us, we went to Shangshanxuan to save people, not to explore the secrets of Zhongyuanri."

"I also want it to be so simple, but I'm afraid that we won't be able to do it then."

At the mention of this, Chun Ting's tone slowly calmed down, and his words revealed a sense of involuntariness.

"Zhongyuan Day is the day when the local officials forgive their sins, and on this day, the ghost door is opened, and the hundred ghosts travel at night, which is not only the day when the two worlds of Yin and Yang are most closely connected, but also the day when the barrier between the two worlds of Yin and Yang is the weakest.

Hearing Chunting's words at this moment, I finally understood where his worry came from.

If it is really as he said, then Zhongyuan Day is not only a festival used for sacrifice by folklore, but also the time when the barrier between the yin and yang worlds is the weakest.

And we have already guessed before, maybe the mysterious black hand behind the scenes is the legendary Demon Ancestor Rahu, if it is really the demon god who was born in the chaos period and wants to bring the world back to chaos, then he will never let go of such a rare opportunity.

In other words, they may have chosen to attack the weak water on the middle day just to disrupt our vision, and their real purpose may not be in the weak water, but in the yin and yang barrier.

This is where the hidden crisis lies in Zhongyuanri.
