In the next few days, Li Yan ate and slept, woke up and followed Uncle Jiu to learn Taoism, and from time to time came a bottle of happy fat house water, and lived a comfortable life.

On this day, Mrs. Jia of Jiafu suddenly came to the door.

"Huh? Mrs. Jia, why are you here? ”

Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng looked surprised, and hurriedly invited Mrs. Jia into the house.

I saw that Mrs. Jia was very grateful, and said to Li Yan and Uncle Jiu: "I came today to thank you, if it weren't for your help, maybe our family would ......."

Uncle Nine waved his hand again and again, and said solemnly: "Mrs. Jia, don't be polite, if you really want to thank me, thank my junior brother!" If it weren't for his help, I'm afraid it would be difficult to kill the demon who killed Master Jia and avenge Master Jia. ”

"Yes, yes, thank you."

When Mrs. Jia heard this, she hurriedly saluted and thanked Li Yan again.

Li Yan was a little embarrassed, and said: "Mrs. Jia doesn't have to be polite, you don't have to be polite, you don't have to be polite, subduing demons and subduing demons, doing the right thing for heaven, is the ...... that my generation defends."

Uncle Nine bowed slightly, extremely pleased, and said to Wencai and Qiusheng on the side: "Look at your uncle, he is my model of Taoism. ”

"Yes, yes, yes." Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng nodded repeatedly.

Mrs. Jia looked at Li Yan, hesitated for a moment, and said: "Engong, you are kind to our Jia family, and you are also kind to Master Jia, in fact, I came here in person this time to ask for something......

"Oh?" Li Yan was stunned and said, "Mrs. Jia, please speak." ”

Mrs. Jia said: "That's right, tomorrow, it will be the first seven nights of my lord, I heard...... After a person dies, the first seven nights can return to the soul and see the relatives again, so ...... I hope that Engong will be able to perform the first seven rituals this time, so that I can meet my husband again. ”

"Huh?" Li Yan was dumbfounded.

This......

He hasn't done this before, has he?

For a moment, Li Yan looked towards Uncle Jiu.

Uncle Jiu hurriedly said: "Mrs. Jia, people can't be resurrected after death, I understand your thoughts, many people want to see their relatives again after they die, but ...... Generally speaking, on the first seven nights, when the dead come back, they can see you, but you can't see them! ”

When Mrs. Jia heard this, her tears immediately fell, and she cried and said, "Uncle Jiu, Engong, I know what you said, but ...... For the past few days, I have been missing my husband every day, and I can't sleep at night, and I can't do anything about it...... I can't feel at ease, so I just want to see him...... On the one hand, even if you can't talk to him...... I know it's very difficult for you, but I think about it, and no one can do it but you. ”

Speaking of which, Mrs. Jia was going to kneel down for Uncle Nine and Li Yan.

"Uncle Jiu, Engong, please help me, I have a wish!"

Mrs. Jia cried to death, miserable and miserable.

Li Yan and Uncle Nine hurriedly supported her.

"Mrs. Jia, what are you doing here? Hurry up! Uncle Nine suddenly panicked.

Wencai and Qiusheng, seeing Mrs. Jia like this, couldn't help but feel sympathy.

"Master, uncle, or ...... Shall we help Mrs. Jia? ”

"That's right, help Mrs. Jia."

The two spoke.

Li Yan frowned and looked at Uncle Nine on the side.

This kind of thing, he doesn't care, if he wants to know this supernatural power, he will help it a long time ago, anyway, it doesn't matter.

But this matter depends on what Uncle Nine thinks.

In case Master Zu has a rule, then this rule may not be broken by Uncle Jiu.

Mrs. Jia cried sadly.

When Uncle Nine saw it, he was also moved by compassion.

In fact, this person has a different path, and it is indeed true.

However, there is no explicit provision in the Daomen that the living cannot be allowed to see ghosts.

It is said that after a person dies, the soul of the three souls, under the leadership of the ghost, will go to the underworld to report, first through the trial of the Ten Palaces of the Yama King, and finally to the Yama Lord.

Lord Yama made a judgment based on the good and evil of this person's life, and allowed the person to be reincarnated or thrown into the eighteen layers of hell to be punished.

This process of going through the Huangquan Road, and then accepting the trial, etc., it takes six days to go through the whole process.

After the end, before the punishment is imposed, the dead can also be escorted back to the yang world by the ghost to see their relatives for the last time.

And this day of returning to the sun is called the "first seven".

On the first seven nights, when the dead return to their souls, the ghost will seal his mouth and contain his supernatural powers, so he can only see his relatives and cannot transmit any information to the outside world.

There's a reason for that.

Legend has it that thousands of years ago, there was no limit to the resurrection of the dead.

Later, when a person returned to his soul, he sent a message to his relatives to inform them of the way to bring him back from the dead.

After death, the body will not completely decay within seven days, and there is a chance to be reborn and rejuvenated.

This person used this method to let himself go away from the ghost gate for a while, come back from the dead, and come back again.

Because of this, since then, there has been a rule in hell that even if the souls of the dead who return on the night of their souls can give their dreams to their loved ones, they cannot speak or transmit any messages in the dreams.

Uncle Jiu's face showed a hesitant look, wanting to refuse Mrs. Jia, but he couldn't open his mouth.

Li Yan hesitated for a moment, looked at Uncle Jiu, and said, "Senior brother, why don't you ...... Shall we help him? He just wanted to see Master Jia, and they wouldn't talk to each other...... It's always okay to see each other. ”

Hearing Li Yan say this, Uncle Nine was stunned for a moment, relieved for a moment, sighed, and said, "Okay! In that case, then I agreed to Mrs. Jia's request. ”

"Thank you, Uncle Nine, thank you, thank you, thank you......"

Mrs. Jia was overjoyed when she heard this, and kowtowed again and again.

Several people helped her up and comforted her again, and then sent her away.

……

Seeing off Mrs. Jia, Uncle Nine shook his head with his hands behind his back, a little helpless, and said, "You guys...... didn't help me persuade Mrs. Jia, but made me embarrassed. ”

Li Yan grinned and said, "Senior brother, helping her is not necessarily a bad thing. ”

Uncle Nine glanced at Li Yan and said, "Since this is the case, then the Dharma of the First Seven Souls tomorrow will be handed over to you to do it." ”

"Huh?" Li Yan was stunned for a moment and said, "Senior brother, this ...... Where would I do this? ”

Uncle Nine said: "You have been learning the Dao with me for several days, it's time to practice your hands, this Fa is not difficult to say...... I'm going to teach you how to do it today...... Tomorrow you will do this Fa thing, what do you think? ”

Li Yan thought for a while, nodded and said, "Okay." ”

"Okay, that's it."

"Senior brother, you always need a robe to do things, right?" Li Yan suddenly thought of something, and said with a smile: "I don't have a robe, why don't you borrow your robe for me, senior brother?" ”

Uncle Nine shook his head and said, "Dao robes are important things for cultivators, how can they be borrowed casually? In this way, I will ask Wencai to go to the tailor shop at the entrance of the village and ask Uncle Wang to make a ...... for you."

Li Yan smiled and said, "Okay." ”
