Chapter Twenty-Six: Land Temple, Confession of Relatives

Yunxi was stunned for a moment, the thatched house that was smashed by her had been renovated, but why was the new house next to it so familiar?

The three rooms of blue bricks and green tiles, the height of the two-story building, the birds and beasts on the ridge, the carvings of the eaves and the two small trees in front of the door, are all familiar, the black and heavy wooden plaques, and the new wooden couplets: the temple is small and the gods are big, the sky is high and the sun and the moon are long. Couplets are common, but aren't these things taken together exactly like the one she had worshipped in her previous life?

"It's exactly the same!"

"Yunxi, what's exactly the same?" The Lin family, who followed Yunxi's side, was stunned for a long time when he saw Yunxi, muttered such an inexplicable sentence, and asked in surprise.

"It's the same as what I worshipped." Yunxi replied casually. After that, I was shocked, "Ah, it's nothing, I just feel like I've seen such a temple before, déjà vu, déjà vu." ”

……

Lin looked at Yunxi who explained in a panic, and was even more surprised in his heart, not to mention that Yunxi had never been anywhere when he was young, even Lin himself, and he had never seen such a land temple, although almost every village had a land temple, but they were all small temples with one room, like the land temple that Ye Yuan built with great expense this time, it may not be possible to find a second one in the entire Youzhou, where has Yunxi seen it?

These flashed quickly in Lin's heart, but his face was quite calm, and he smiled forcefully: "Your father and they have already walked over, let's go quickly." ”

Yunxi vaguely agreed, and walked towards the Land Temple with the Lin family.

Although the new temple was built by the Ye family, but today's main sacrifice is Li Zheng Fu Mingxian, according to the pre-calculated time, Fu Mingxian led everyone, first gave incense to the land, burned yellow table paper, and recited a sacrificial text, thanking the land lord and his wife for their care over the years, and said that the letter girl Yunxi was grateful in her heart, and specially built a new temple, and asked the land grandfather and grandmother to move to a new house, hoping that the land would not panic and blame Yunyun.

After the sacrifice, eight strong young men came up, moved the statue of the land lord and grandmother to the simple wooden sedan chair, and when the auspicious time came, they lit firecrackers while shouting "get up the sedan chair", and then lifted the statue to the new temple.

The new temple is on the edge of the old temple, and the smoke of the firecrackers here has not yet dissipated, and the other side has been lifted. Bursts of cheers from children.

Eight young men lifted the idol up the room, carefully lowered it, and placed it on the altar. Li Zheng led the crowd to worship again.

After the excitement, everyone dispersed, and the Yunxi family went in again to solemnly thank the land. Only Ye Yuan and Yunxi knelt down, carefully said the idea of wanting to recognize the land as a godfather, and pressed the written letter under the incense burner, and the Ye family's sacrificial activities for this day were over.

The letter will be placed on the table for three days, if the Ye family does not have bad things such as broken bowls and accidental disasters in these six days, it means that Grandpa Land has agreed to this matter.

It was very smooth, the Ye family spent three days of peace and security, and Yunxi wanted to recognize the land and do the work of relatives.

Lin's nerves, which had been worried for three days, finally relaxed, and only then did he remember Yunxi's abnormality that day. Thinking about Yunxi's unbelievable sentence, she couldn't sit still, and immediately went to Yunxi Courtyard.

At this time, the two sisters, Yuanyuan and Qiulan, were sitting by the wall basking in the sun and doing needlework, when they saw Lin come in and stood up hurriedly.

"Shh Lin stopped them from saying hello and slowed down towards the house.

Yunxi was practicing calligraphy in the room, Yunjin was also reading a book in the nest, the two girls were doing things quietly, and the Lin family was overjoyed when they looked at it seriously.

Yunxi was practicing patiently, and suddenly felt that the surroundings seemed to be too quiet, Yunxi looked up suspiciously, "Mother, why are you here?" Come on in. ”

welcomed Lin in, and skillfully poured water for Lin to drink.

"It's really different." Lin sighed in her heart, she didn't pay much attention to it before, she just went gladly, but now look at it, Yunxi is really different from before, where would she pour water by herself before, but now she has poured it so skillfully, if it weren't for Yuanyuan knowing the roots, she would have wondered if Yunxi was abused.

"Yunxi, sit down, I have something to ask you." Lin beckoned Yunxi to sit beside her. and sent all the maids out.

"Mother, what's the matter with you?" Yun Jin asked.

Lin ignored Yunjin, took Yunxi's little hand, and asked seriously: "Yunxi, what you said that day was exactly the same, it seems that you have seen what's going on?" ”

Yunxi has been waiting for the Lin family to come to her since that day, and after coming back, she thought that this matter had passed, but she didn't expect to come today. But it didn't matter, she was prepared.

"Mother, I said you must not tell others, okay?" Yunxi looked at the Lin family with a serious face, saw that the Lin family nodded, and then looked at Yun Jin, and Yun Jin also nodded.

Yunxi whispered mysteriously: "Don't say it, you know?" ”

Lin and Yun Jin nodded again.

Yunxi lowered his business and whispered: "It's in a dream, mother, just that time, I fell from the tree and fainted, I saw the real land grandpa land grandma." ”

"Really?" Lin Yunjin spoke in unison, looking incredulous.

"Of course it's true, you forget how much blood I shed that day, I felt like I was about to die at that time, I had a terrible headache, Grandpa Land touched my head, I didn't hurt anymore, and then Grandpa Land gave me a bowl of soup to drink, and I was drinking it, Yuanyuan pounced on me, and then I woke up." Yunxi finished speaking in one breath, hey, I wasted a lot of brain cells, I almost couldn't go through, I was stared at by the two pairs of eyes of Lin and Yun Jin, I really had the urge to bring out the truth, and I didn't know if I could pass the test.

Lin and Yunjin, you look at me, I look at you, and then look at Yunxi, half speechless.

Just when Yunxi thought that he couldn't pass the test and couldn't hold on, Lin suddenly said: "I'll just say it, Yunjin, I'll just say it, it must be the blessing of the land, that day, your sister shed a lot of blood, such a big stall, scared me to death." Look at the present, how long has passed, and your sister is alive again. I know, I know, no, I have to thank the land god again. ”

Lin was about to get up as she spoke, but Yunxi hurriedly pulled her. "Mother, you stop, you listen to me first, I didn't say it, we must not say it, although the land did not say that it should be kept secret, but I think the land is not necessarily known to everyone, otherwise, everyone will go to the land to ask for this and that, how annoying you say the land should be, right?"

"In that case, well, then I'll go tomorrow, don't worry, I won't say anything outside, otherwise, everyone will ask for this and that, and the land god will definitely blame us." Lin was full of promises. She didn't want to tell anyone about this blessing.

In the next few days, the Lin family ran to incense the land every day, and the people in the village were stunned, they had seen those who worshiped the land, but they had never seen those who worshipped so diligently, but because of the excuse that Yunxi wanted to worship his relatives, he was exempted from being questioned by others.

In a blink of an eye, on the seventh day of the first month of November, Yunxi bathed and changed clothes as usual, but today she was the protagonist, so she got a new dress.

According to the custom of worshipping the relatives, gifts were given, incense and candles were lit, and after a complicated ceremony, Yunxi was named to the land god.
