"Pingling Yinji, I've heard of this weird market since I was a child," Tian Yi said.

"Yes, it is said that between the first day of the first month and the ugly hour, the people in the city put some daily necessities and money on both sides of the road west of the city, and after the ugly hour, the yin market begins, and the ghosts and gods and the deceased family members of the people will come to the market, and it will end before dawn, so as to ensure the safety of the people in the city this month." The scholar Tian An seemed to answer Tian Yi, and he seemed to be talking to himself.

"However, I never believe in these ghosts and gods, tomorrow is the first day of the new year, so I'm going to find out tonight", Tian Yi said with a wicked smile: "I have always suspected that the Taoist priests in the west of the city are using this to cheat and eat and drink"~~

"No, Childe's health has not been good, Hou Ye sent me to keep an eye on you and don't run around", without waiting for Tian Yi to finish speaking, Tian An hurriedly said: "I am known by Hou Ye, I will be severely punished."

"Since my father sent you to keep an eye on me, then it just so happens that the two of us will go together tonight to see it, and you have been following me, and you have not disobeyed your father's orders."

"How's that going, isn't that asking me to make mistakes with you? It's going to kill me", Tian An was obviously in a hurry.

Tian Yi suddenly stared at Tian An with a torch in his eyes, "If you say more, if you can't wait for Master Hou, I will punish you first."

Tian An stuck out his tongue, covered his mouth with his hand, and looked at Tian Yi timidly.

This second son is burly, but he is frail and sickly, and he has to breathe when he walks fast, and he looks weak on weekdays.

But when you stare at you angrily, you have a fair face with Chinese characters, two sword eyebrows, a pair of tiger eyes, and shimmering eyes looking at you, which is really majestic and timid.

Tian Yi turned his head, his eyes became gloomy, and he said softly: "My father was canonized as the Marquis of Pingling of Daqi, and the fief of Dongpingling can be said to be the treasure land of Daqi, with overflowing springs and beautiful scenery.

My father didn't say that I also knew that this fiefdom was specially selected for me to raise my body.

Dongping Mausoleum is adjacent to the land of sages and sages, and my father spared no expense to invite capable people from Lu to teach me to practice literature and martial arts.

Xi Wen is also reasonable, but several swordsman teachers invited flattered me and said that I was a martial arts wizard, and my body, which was panting when I walked fast, was really ridiculous and lamentable.

In order to be busy with government affairs, he lived in the palace of the Marquis of Linzi in the royal city for a long time, and he could only come back to visit me a few times a year, and every time he taught me earnestly and tirelessly.

My eldest brother has been training in the western frontier, and he has only come back once in the past few years, and he really longs to recreate the days when he took me to play in the spring in the east of the city.

My mother, Leshi, the county lord of Zhongshan Country, suffered a great change in the country 10 years ago, left a book to return to his hometown to save the country, and died on the battlefield, so I am so lonely now."

Tian An's eyes turned red when he heard this, "Childe, don't talk about these sad things, can't I accompany you at night?"

"I didn't force you, rest early after dinner, set off at the right time, and rush to the west of the city to see what is going on before the ugly time." Tian Yi returned to his state of excitement.

Nightfall, sub-hour

The master and servant changed their black clothes and went west of the city.

There is no moon and no light on the first day of the new year, the moon is dark and the wind is high, the two of them do not hold the torches, they do not go fast, they go to the west road of the city, they see that there are already figures, it seems that it has passed the ugly time, and the yin set has been opened.

The sound of horses snorting suddenly came from the wind, "Yinji actually sells livestock", which made Tian Yi feel even more strange.

Tian Yi took out a fire fold and lit it in the wind.

"Don't hold the lamp here," said a somber voice.

Tian Yi was so frightened that the back of his head stirred, and at the same time as the light was lit, a terrifying big face appeared in front of the firelight. Although Tian Yi didn't believe in ghosts and gods since he was a child, he was really taken aback.

The voice came from this terrifying face, but the mouth did not move, Tian Yi understood, it was a mask.

Looking ahead along the firelight, there were more than a dozen people in the shadow, all wearing different and hateful masks, and the firelight turned on to attract everyone to look over here, which looked particularly gloomy.

"I'm going to see who is pretending to be a ghost here," Tian Yi said as he reached out and tore off the mask of the big face on the other side.

The person on the other side didn't dodge, and let Tian Yi tear off his mask, revealing the face of a kind middle-aged man behind the mask. Tian Yi recognized this person as the master of the Chengxi Taoist Temple, the Lingxu Daoist.

"It turned out to be the second son of the Hou Mansion, and he came just in time, I just happened to have something important to tell me", Lingxu Dao Chang said coldly.

"Do you recognize me?" Tian Yi was a little strange.

"Hou Ye is the gold master of the Taoist temple, the second son came to the Taoist temple with the Hou Ye to pray for blessings, did the second prince forget", Lingxu Taoist turned his head and said to everyone: "Today's market ends early, let's disperse first."

But they were obedient and departed in order.

The viewer turned his head, and through the bright light, Tian Yi saw that the viewer's expression became very solemn.

"The second son's Yintang is black, I am afraid that there will be a disaster of blood, please flee from Qi immediately."

"Are you kidding me? And it's a serious joke," Tian Yi asked in a sarcastic tone.

"Do you think I'm laughing, and I don't have time to laugh with you", the viewer suddenly looked at Tian An, "Wangcheng is urgent, time is urgent, take the second son away quickly, the horses, clothes, and dry food are ready, it's too late to explain." The viewer reached out and took the reins and handed them to Tian An.

"Don't you think it's ridiculous to watch the master", Tian Yi also turned his head to look at Tian An, only to find that Tian An's expression had changed greatly.

"What the Taoist chief said is right, let's leave immediately", Tian An took the two reins and said coldly, handing one to Tian Yi casually.

Tian Yi scratched the thumb cover with his index finger, he only had this action when he was nervous, because he had found that the thumb of his right hand was different from ordinary people since he was a child, other people's crescents were white, and his crescents were black.

Once, when his father was at home, he asked him a thumb question and secretly saw that half of his thumb cover was black, and he angrily reprimanded him. He was nervous and scared, and scratched the thumb cover with his index finger, and when he encountered something nervous and scared in the future, he would unconsciously repeat this action.

"Do you know the Taoist? What the hell is going on? Tian Yi was more and more surprised.

The Taoist chief was already in a hurry, "If you want to live and leave quickly, when you get to a safe place, let Tian An explain it to you in detail, Wang Cheng is in the package."

Tian An didn't talk nonsense, quickly pushed Tian Yi on the horse, and then rode a horse himself, saying "Take care", and then the two rode away on horseback.

The nearest road to leave Qi is to go east to the vicinity of the Hou Mansion, and then to the south to the border.

Tian Anxin secretly rejoiced, fortunately tonight night to explore the Yin gathering, otherwise there was no way to escape, the two did not dare to turn back, and rode straight south.

Out of the Dongping Tomb to Guangzong, the south gate of Guangzong is the Qi boundary.

Walk to the Guangsheng Inn near the south gate of Guangzong City, Tian An drank the horses, led Tian Yi to the door of the inn and knocked on the door, Xiao Er lit the lamp and opened the door, "This is the second son of the Marquis of Pingling, rest here first, I will go to the south gate to investigate", Tian An pushed Tian Yi into the inn with sophistication.

Tian Yi reflexively chased out, and Tian An was gone. Tian Yi was amazed in his heart, Tian An and I have been a scholar for a year, only one year younger than me, and eighteen this year, but I didn't know that he had such skills.

"I'll come in with a package", Tian Yi said to Xiao Er, because he remembered that the Taoist chief said that Wang Cheng's urgent report was inside.

I took advantage of the light to take a look at the inn, and suddenly remembered that this inn had been there.

It was at this time last year that my father returned home and took me here for lunch. Xiao Er accidentally fell on the tea, sprinkled on the ground, was scolded and beaten by the shopkeeper, I stepped forward to save it, he had studied for two years in his early years, and he was willing to go with me and accompany me to study.

This little two is Tian An, at that time, the two of us talked about the same surname, I felt that I had the same temper, and I was very fateful, thinking about it today, it seems that it was carefully arranged by my father.

A cool breeze blew, and last year's red leaves were all over the mountain, which made people feel refreshed, but tonight I felt a cold breeze to the bones, and my back was cold.

I entered the room and opened the package, took out the emergency report, and then looked at the light, scratching my thumb with my right index finger, and couldn't help but start to tremble.
