"Little rabbit, where have you been? Come, sit in front of me, and talk to my mother-in-law!"

Zhao Qi lightly pushed open the door, and saw Granny Lan sitting at the dining table, her face was thin and angry, and there was a rolling pin leaning against the wall, which was very abrupt. Being stared at by Granny Lan, Zhao Qi was a little flustered, and seeing that he couldn't hide from it, he was at the gate of the courtyard, and hurriedly explained in a loud voice:

"Mother-in-law, I went to visit Brother Li, and several of the brothers inside were very enthusiastic, and they had to pull me to dinner, which caused me to come back late. ”

"Why are you standing in the doorway? ”

Seeing that Granny Lan's face was a little softened, Zhao Qi hurriedly ran to Granny Lan and sat down obediently opposite Granny Lan, smiling, looking like she was listening to the teachings, so that Granny Lan couldn't be angry and couldn't let it out, so she had to helplessly admonish:

"Qi'er, I know that Master Tiger has a great favor to our family, but you should go to them less in the future, don't mess with your mind. A gentleman repays the favor, and there is a way to repay it, and after you are the top student in high school, we will repay today's kindness. ”

"Yes, mother-in-law. I know. I promise to try to deal with Brother Li as little as possible in the future. ”

How could Granny Lan not hear Zhao Qi's weak guarantee, but if Zhao Qi and Li Hu were ordered to cut off contact, this was obviously not the proper attitude towards the benefactor, and it was against benevolence and righteousness, and Granny Lan would not be able to get over it in her own heart, and in the end she could only helplessly stop it, and she would have to watch Qi'er in the future.

"I really don't know why Master Tiger takes so much care of you!",

After listening to the lecture, Zhao Qi got up and went to the kitchen to bring out the food, originally thinking that he could avoid punishment by performing well, but at the dinner table, Granny Lan still gave Zhao Qi a foot restriction order.

Recently, Yong'an City has been very unpeaceful, many demons are in turmoil, and Granny Lan is worried about Zhao Qi's safety. In order to stay at home more consciously and honestly, Granny Lan whispered in Zhao Qi's ears about the terrible things rumored in the market, and finally listed the tragic events that happened around her.

Maybe it was Zhao Qiqi's stunned appearance that made Granny Lan mistakenly think that Zhao Qi was frightened, and Granny Lan finally added, "But don't be afraid, as long as you don't go out after dark, nothing will happen." Do you hear that?"

Zhao Qi nodded stiffly, he was only a little suspicious before, but it wasn't until Granny Lan said so much that Zhao Qi realized the seriousness of the demon trouble, and this matter was very strange!

In addition to the natives of Yong'an City, the demonic aura will erode every outsider, which is the obsession of thousands of dead creatures, and is hostile to outsiders.

The demons of spiritual enlightenment should avoid Yong'an City, just like Hu Mei'er didn't dare to set foot in Yong'an City at the beginning, because she was afraid of losing her mind in it. And the demons who can be defeated by the demon master, the strength of the absolute vegetable picks their feet, how can they set foot in Yong'an City?

Unless......

A word suddenly appeared in Zhao Qi's mind - the snake repellent who crossed the west, the snake repellent drove hundreds of poisonous snakes to kill the people through the sound of the flute, and even some prosperous cities would be attacked. The biggest headache of the Qingyue Dynasty is these corpse chasers hiding in the depths of the mountains and forests, and they can't eat their flesh.

Behind the demons of the chaos must be a big hand in their posture to drive the demons to Yong'an City, but what is the purpose of their doing this? Moreover, this is the usual method used by the three sects, is it impossible for the three sects to ......? Zhao Qi immediately ruled out the possibility of the three sects, the three sects don't have time to toss this wasteland, but the mastermind behind the scenes must be the little person who understands the truth of the correction, who is it?

No matter who it is, Zhao Qi has to stop it. Everyone has their own fate, just like when Hu Xiangu seduced the woodcutter, Zhao Qi would not stop it. But if someone kills living beings for selfish desires, Zhao Qiding must stop it. It's just that there are too few people around him, and Zhao Qi doesn't want to end up in person, it's a headache to think about!

The next day, Zhao Qi went to Li Hu and asked Li Hu to help make nine fine sandalwood sticks, plus an incense burner. When Li Hu asked about the use of sandalwood, Zhao Qi said generously:

"Peace be with God."

There was a lot of laughter in the lobby, all of them ridiculed Zhao Qi for being timid, Zhao Qi didn't bother to defend, and after sitting for a while, a little brother presented the object and stuffed it into his arms, and before leaving, he inadvertently kicked Li Hu, and Li Hu gasped for cold air in pain.

Zhao Qi walked out of the distance, and he could hear Tian Feng's loud voice, muttering hatefully, "Tian Feng!

After dinner, Zhao Qi greeted Granny Lan and went to bed early.

When he arrived, Zhao Qi held the incense burner and sandalwood, quietly slipped out of the small courtyard from the window, and ran wildly after stepping on the road, Zhao Qi knew that there was not much time, and he had to prevent being followed while running.

After more than half an hour, Zhao Qi ran to the ruins of the imperial city, and he stopped at the Minhe Hall in the center of the imperial city, which was the highest place in the imperial city. Zhao Qi carefully filled the incense burner with soil, bit his finger and dripped a few drops of his own blood on it, and placed it humbly at the top of the steps, and then there was a long wait.

Just after the hour, Zhao Qi, who was shivering from the cold, saw that no one was peeping around, took out the fire fold and lit the sandalwood, endured the discomfort from his nose, took a deep breath of smoke, and then began to worship.

I saw Zhao Qi with his left hand on top, his right hand holding the incense in the palm of his hand, raising it to his forehead, and bowing three times with a solemn expression, before respectfully inserting the incense into the incense burner, and at the same time slowly exhaling the smoke inhaled in his chest, mixed with sandalwood cigarettes and rising into the air.

Zhao Qi, who had done everything, sat down cross-legged at the foot of the steps and waited quietly.

If the people of the Ice Palace were still there, they could see a thin line of smoke, slowly rising into the air like a swimming snake, and the smoke would not disperse. Just when the black and oppressive clouds came into contact with this burst of smoke, the evil qi in the sky instantly swelled, as if there were dragons and snakes rolling in it.

In the end, suddenly the wind in Yong'an City was fierce, and the dark clouds formed by the evil qi surrounded the imperial city layer by layer. The clouds rushed down from the sky along the smoke and slowly stopped at the upper end of the incense burner, twisting and turning like an illusory human face.

At this time, Zhao Qicai slowly got up and said in a deep voice: "I, Shaoshang Emperor Zhao Qi." ”

At the moment when Zhao Qi revealed his identity, thousands of ghosts shouted in the sky above Yong'an, and under the terrifying atmosphere, the needles in Yong'an City could be heard, only the wind blew through the window edge, through the crack in the door, leaving a tingling whining sound.

The old people were already asleep, but they felt the softness of their hearts touched, woke up slowly, looked out of the window stupidly, and thought that the old people would never cry again in their lives, and the dry eyes suddenly couldn't stop tears and dripped to the ground.

It seems that there are cries of deceased relatives and friends in the wind, they are so wronged, so hateful, and so helpless. A dull whining echo echoed through the room from the old man's pursed mouth, and the old man did not dare to stretch out his hand, for they were afraid that they would not be able to hold on, and would go to their parents, wives and children.

The old people are not afraid of death, they are afraid that their grandchildren will not be taken care of, they all want to give their children a bright future, and then be buried in the suburbs of Yong'an, and go to see their relatives in heaven with peace of mind. The old man's body was trembling, his chest was rising and falling violently, his arms were bulging, and his fists were trembling, all of them were trying to control themselves.

Maybe the ghosts fulfilled their wish and left with peace of mind. The wind gradually rose and fled towards the imperial city! Feeling that the ghosts of his relatives had left, the old man pounded the bed board fiercely. The young people who had lost the pressure heard the old man's movements, and they all got up one after another to ask with concern.

Granny Lan also heard the ghost's cry clearly, which also meant that Granny Lan's deadline was approaching! It's a pity that Zhao Qi was in the imperial city and couldn't know.

But since then, in addition to the Guyuan Festival and the Middle Year Festival, the people of Yongan have one more day to worship the immortals - the seventh and a half months, which is called the Ghost Festival by later generations.

Zhao Qi's surroundings were already shrouded in a layer of darkness, leaving only a pair of eyes to look at the ghostly spirit above the incense burner,

"I know that I have no words to face the people of Great Xia, and I have no shame to disturb everyone's rest, but for the sake of eternal peace and survival, I can only come to ask everyone. Yong'an demon trouble, I hope everyone can resist and seek a peaceful day for the living!

If you have a grudge in your heart, you can add it to me and let me bear the consequences of my karma. Please!"

Zhao Qi slowly stood up and bowed towards the incense burner, reluctant to get up for a long time. Just when Zhao Qi thought he had failed, thousands of voices remembered in his mind,

"Your Majesty, I am willing to protect everyone's ......"

"Your Majesty, I don't hate you! you brought us to a good life, and I only hate those damned coalition forces......"

"Your Majesty,......"

At last there was a rumbling, and suddenly a voice overpowered everyone,

"Your Majesty, even if we die, we will be grateful for Your Majesty's great kindness. In the future, we will protect the living in eternal peace, and I hope Your Majesty will have peace of mind......"

When the voice in his head disappeared, Zhao Qi straightened up and found that the sandalwood had been burned out. After bowing down three times, he buried the incense burner in the soil and crawled home with difficulty, escorted by ghosts along the way......
