Before going to the homes of these orphan girls and widows, Liu Cheng explained the method to me.

Grandpa also explained how he let these orphan girls and widows survive even if they had no souls, he put a mountain and sea town in the homes of these orphan girls and widows, and detained their souls in the mountain temple, and then concealed their deaths, so as long as no one broke it, they would not react that they were dead.

They are dead people, and if they want to come back to life again, they can only borrow corpses to resurrect their souls like my father, so we walked around in this orphan widow's house one by one, these orphan girls and widows were already intimate with us, and they were not at all defenseless against us, and when they arrived at their door, they knocked on the door first, and when the orphan girls and widows came out, Liu Cheng directly reached out and pressed on their heads, and they immediately stopped moving, and Liu Cheng asked me again, "Can people still live if they have no soul?" ”

I replied according to Liu Cheng's explanation, "If you don't have a soul, you will definitely die." ”

After hearing this, those orphan women and widows reacted to Chen Yingying, as if they remembered something, and then they were about to fall backwards, and after being pulled by Liu Cheng, they took out the corresponding scarecrow, and recited some spells, and then said, "Your life is thin and cold, and the sky is especially merciful, today you have the courage to make you a person, increase your longevity for three years, and in the future, you should do good and accumulate virtue, if you do evil, you will lead the sky to thunder and kill, go." ”

After saying that, the white light on the scarecrow drifted into their bodies along the place where Liu Cheng's hand was pressing, and we took the mountain and sea town in the house, and only returned to the house after doing all this.

The widows and orphans lay down to sleep and would wake up in a short time, and they would think that what they had seen in the temple was just a dream, just like my father.

After doing all this, we went back to the house, and waited for the results of the retrial when the land lord went to the City God Temple to apply for a retrial.

During this period, Liu Cheng explained to me and my grandfather, and when the time came to the Land Temple, what should be said and what should not be said. For example, the previous overthrow of the mountain temple cannot be said, although this sin will not be pressed under the mountain temple, but the punishment of reducing Yangshou will definitely not be escaped.

Until that night, the people and animals in the village have been sleeping and resting, when everything is quiet, the village suddenly began to fly chickens and dogs jump, roosters crowing late at night, pigs and dogs running wildly, accompanied by bursts of gongs and drums.

We also stood at the door and watched, and saw dozens of little ghosts at the entrance of the village marching in line, leading a red-tasseled horse, beating gongs and shouting as they went, "The shogunate takes office, and the living people avoid it." ”

Where have the people in the village seen this battle, they are all very curious, and they do not avoid it, and they all go out to watch.

The villagers didn't know what was going on, but they all followed, until they reached my door, and the little ghost bowed to me and said, "Please go to the Land Temple to take up your post." ”

Last time, I brought a black donkey, this time I brought a red tasseled horse, I was a little at a loss, I looked at Liu Cheng, and Liu Cheng motioned to me to let me go.

I hummed, walked forward, but left my body behind me, when I was about to fall down, I was supported by my grandfather and put aside, I was then helped by the little ghost to get on the horse, the people in the village looked at it in amazement, and regardless of this serious scene, they said bluntly, "Sun Qing is going to be an official below?" I'll just say, this doll will definitely become a god and an immortal in the future. ”

It sounded funny to me, they didn't say that before, they used to say that my grandfather was an old rascal and I was a little rascal.

I didn't reply, after getting on the horse, this group of little ghosts was about to go home, I looked at Liu Cheng and said, "Master, come with me, I don't dare alone." ”

Liu Cheng smiled and said, "You go first, and I will go with your grandfather and your father and mother then." ”

The group of imps then led the horses all the way to beat gongs and drums away, and the surrounding scene gradually became unfamiliar, and when they reached the ghost gate, I asked the little ghosts leading the horses to take me to the offering pavilion outside the ghost gate.

Liu Cheng said that the things that the yang world burns for the dead will be stored in the offering pavilion first, and then the imps in the offering pavilion will take them and distribute them to the dead people separately, because I am a new official and I have to go to the land temple to try the case on the first day of my appointment, so I can't behave too domineering.

So Liu Chengti burned a lot of yin and yang money for me in the offering pavilion as early as possible, and used it to make some use of it, if I had a good relationship with these little ghosts, they would not only not make it difficult for me, but also not for my parents, after all, money can make ghosts grind.

The yin and yang money that can circulate below cannot be burned casually, you need to cut the yellow table paper to a specific size, and then use the money to print the copper coin imprint on it, the most is twelve imprints, and the least is one imprint, representing different denominations.

Because grandpa was a mountain god, and Liu Cheng was a Taoist priest, they must know this, and most of the others burned some yellow table paper indiscriminately, which was not used at all below.

When I went to the offering pavilion and took the yin and yang money, and then distributed some to these little ghosts who came to pick me up, they didn't dare to take it at first, but after I tried again and again, they still accepted the yin and yang money, and took me into the ghost gate with a smile.

When I got to the ghost gate, I gave the yin and yang money to the gatekeeper ghost, and these little ghosts all knew me, so I first took the yin and yang money, and then asked, "Sun Shogunate, will you take office so soon?" ”

I hummed, "Because I was in a hurry, I took up my post early." ”

The talents recruited by the following recruits need to wait for the other party's life to reach the deadline before they come to work, and I really have very few people who come to work on the second day of the examination, so they feel strange.

The janitor said again, "It's better to be in the yang world, there's no need to come down so early." ”

I smiled and said, "In a while, there will be little ghosts who will bring my master, grandfather, and father, and ask a few big brothers not to embarrass them." ”

Fang is the way of life, and circle is the foundation of life. Grandpa has taught me this truth since I was a child, so I can resist so many people scolding me behind my back, I have long known the ability to be oily and slippery, coupled with Liu Cheng's instructions, it is also an old-fashioned posture to do things below.

These little ghosts took my advantage, of course, they nodded and agreed, and said in a loud voice, "Of course, of course." ”

After saying that, I went to Yangguan Road, and then chose to go to the path of Pingxiang, walking all the way, before this road was empty and almost no one was there, but today I saw a few people in front and back, there are little ghosts, and there are wandering ghosts.

I was a little curious and said, "Why are there more people coming to the Land Temple today to report than usual?" ”

These little ghosts said, "I don't know where they heard it, saying that a nine-year-old shogunate in Pingxiang wants to overturn the case of the Chenghuang Lord who will never turn over, come and see the lively, the land temple is even more lively, the land temple in Pingxiang has only been reopened, and it is the first time it has been so lively." ”

I listened to let them lead the horses to catch up with the people in front, and then just like the scattered wealth boys, they all distributed some yin and yang money, after all, I want to interrogate my father and mother, I will definitely not act impartially, if too many people watch, if the cover is too obvious, if this basket is stabbed to the city god, I am afraid that I will not be able to eat and walk around, eat people with short mouths, take people with short hands, take my money, and then should be restrained.

Just walked all the way, and when I arrived in front of the Land Temple, I saw a line of ghosts at the gate of the Land Temple, as well as those wandering ghosts and wild ghosts who were watching the excitement next to them, and these wandering ghosts and wild ghosts had not yet had time to interrogate, so they had time to run out.

I got off the horse, and the wandering ghost next to me pointed at me, and I walked up to the land lord and looked at the land lord and smiled, the land lord saw me, glanced at the sides again, pulled me into the land temple, and then held back left and right, and then said, "Take it out." ”

I groaned, puzzled, "What do you take out?" ”

"My book of life and death, you and your master were still in the land temple before they came, as soon as you leave, the book of life and death is gone, the wandering ghosts and ghosts are not so bold, only you and your master dare to do this." The land lord said in a deep voice.

This matter must not be hidden, and Liu Chenglai will definitely return the book of life and death at that time, so he said, "Don't say it, we will burn incense and paper for you in the future." ”

"You're a little imp out there, so easy to fool?" The land lord still said with a gloomy face.

I saw that the land master was really angry, so I said, "At my master's place, he will bring it to you in a moment." ”

The land lord said, "I tell you, this matter is not as simple as you and your master think, I applied to the City God Temple for a retrial, and the City God agreed, but he sent a shogunate surnamed Lin from the City God Temple, saying that it was tried together, with him, you want to protect your father and your grandfather, it is unlikely, while the trial has not started yet, you can give up, so as not to put your grandfather and you into it when the time comes." ”
