The Bon Festival, also known as the Ghost Festival and the Ghost Festival, is a festival that is opposite to the Lantern Festival and the Lantern Festival celebrated by ordinary people.

In Neon, because of the popular legend of hundreds of ghosts, the Ghost Festival is also a major festival after the New Year.

On this day, hundreds of ghosts walk at night and enjoy incense without any taboos.

"Hei Ye, I heard that there will be a grand temple fair in Edogawa tonight. I haven't been to the temple fair yet."

At the conference table, Wanzi directly expressed his thoughts regardless of Lao Hei's gloomy expression.

"I've warned you." Lao Hei slammed the table, "The Ghost Festival in this world is extremely dangerous for extraordinary people."

"Hundred ghosts will not attack ordinary people when enjoying incense, but they do not include extraordinary people, so the Ghost Festival here is a taboo for extraordinary people."

"Because this day is the day of the contract between gods and demons. The gods allow demons to enjoy incense on this day, so even the gods who are in charge of protection will not come out to patrol Tokyo on this day. The entire Tokyo is full of ghosts at night, and there are no taboos."

"It sounds interesting, right, Heiye." Maruko said, tilting his head.

After getting along with each other for a period of time, everyone has understood that Wanzi is really cute, so they went to Lao Hei.

"If you want to commit suicide, I can't control it." Lao Hei left angrily.

I seem to have heard this sentence before, Wanzi thought. In the end, the desire for a grand temple fair occupied all the brain cells.

"Today we form a team to go to Bon Festival, who can join the group?" Maruko raised her right hand high.

Cedric smiled and said, "Hakki Yakou, I really want to see it."

Because of the contract between gods and demons, no matter how powerful his god clone is, he will be confined to his sanctuary tonight and cannot travel until dawn.

And if you don’t understand the Night Parade of Hundred Ghosts, how can you know what they are planning?

Seeing Cedric nod, Mo Mo immediately said, "Then the assassin and I will be included in tonight's event."

"I announce that our cute new adventure group is officially established." Maruko said happily. The only person excluded was the leader of the adventure group.

In ancient times, many Neon people actually spent the Bon Festival at home, because after dark, ghosts were raging, and only with the protection of the ancestors' heroic spirits could they spend it safely.

However, as the gods and demons reached a contract, on the Ghost Festival, demons were not allowed to harm mortals for no reason. Gradually, people in Neon began to go out of their homes to celebrate this festival.

The most important ritual of the Hungry Ghost Festival is the lighting of river lanterns.

In the theory of yin and yang, land is yang and water is yin. The river at night is dark, as if it leads directly to the underworld.

Therefore, the river lantern can follow the waterway and reach the ancient land of Huangquan. At that time, the wish power on the river lantern will be turned into food for the hungry ghosts in the ancient land of Huangquan to enjoy, preventing them from causing harm to the world.

Corresponding to this are the sky lanterns of the Shangyuan Festival. The sky lanterns can go directly to Gaotianyuan. People use them to pray for good weather and everything goes well.

"Wanzi, it's not good to wear it like this." Even Mo Mo couldn't help complaining.

Maruko was wearing a koi-patterned yukata, a beautiful silver bell headdress on her hand, and a red rope tied to her left hand.

"How come anime don't all dress like this?" Maruko said doubtfully.

"First of all, the yukata is not conducive to possible battles. Secondly, whether it is a silver bell or a red rope, it is something that attracts monsters."

Ink explained to Wanzi.

Maruko nodded in understanding, "I can fight in a yukata."

After saying that, she took off her yukata, revealing a tactical short suit inside.

Sure enough, girls wearing clothes are much prettier than girls without clothes. This is a rule of thumb drawn from real inspection.

"It doesn't matter, Wanzi, you will protect us anyway." Cedric said with a smile.

Wanzi nodded sternly.

Mo Mo: This sentence seems to have the subject and predicate reversed, boss.

But since Bai Ye said so, he had nothing to object to and waved his hand in resignation, "I'll drive."

By the time Cedric and others arrived at Edogawa, the sky was already dark.

Temple fairs are organized in an orderly manner on the slopes on both sides of the Edogawa River.

In this age where money is paramount, capitalists will not let go of any opportunity to make money, even from ghosts and gods.

After parking the car in a nearby parking lot, Wanzi excitedly pulled a few people towards the temple fair.

Among them, the retro brazier dance and acrobatic performances are very interesting.

"Look, Hei Ye, we picked up another one." Mo Mo and others held more than a dozen brightly colored goldfish in their hands, all of which were the largest and most beautiful in the stall.

Fishing for goldfish is an essential activity in temple fairs. As long as the paper net in your hand is not broken, you can fish as many as you want.

Listening to the prayers from the bottom of the heart of the boss opposite, Cedric decided to fulfill his priestly duties.

"Let's go over and set off the river lanterns."

After hearing Cedric's proposal, Maruko hesitated, but the river lanterns gradually floating on the river obviously attracted her attention.

"Okay" Wanzi nodded.

There is a custom in this world to place river lanterns. If there is a bridge, the river lanterns can be placed upstream of the bridge.

Because the bridge is a boundary, crossing the bridge means crossing the boundary. If you go by water, crossing the boundary means going from the Yang world to the underworld.

Many people have lined up to put down river lanterns on the water.

I hope that their wishes can be turned into incense to worship those relatives who are suffering in the underworld.

But this year's river lanterns are different. Each river lantern sits on a small paper crane.

The priests who honor the Qianhe God declare that the Qianhe God possesses the power of salvation, and the Qianzhi crane representing Him can turn into the light of salvation in the underworld, helping the suffering hungry ghosts to pull out their sins and reincarnate as soon as possible.

Cedric personally put down a small boat with a thousand paper cranes on the bow to guide the way. When the small light of the boat followed the river and crossed the Edogawa Bridge, Cedric clearly felt that the magic mark he had left had entered another world. .

The winding path, the eerie and unspeakable darkness, the boundless suffering and sin, the soul that has been howling forever.

In Cedric's view, the underworld of this world is out of balance. It is not a place of reincarnation like the Eastern Land, but an endless place like hell.

What is the reason for this? Is it because of the loss of the words of Huangquan?

It shouldn't be. The words of Underworld were lost for only half a year. With Ienami in charge, how could Underworld be unbalanced so quickly?

The young Cedric felt more with the help of countless river lanterns in his temple.

The evil ghosts in the entire ancient Huangquan Kingdom are like crazy, attacking each other and sharing food. This may be a ritual.

Cedric thought about the legend that Iyanaki used the Thousand Leading Stone to prevent Iyanami from entering Weiyuan China. After so many years, Iyanami may not have thought of a solution.

Use the countless evil spirits accumulated in the ancient Huangquan Kingdom as the introduction to the ritual to open the seal of the Thousand Leading Stones.

Therefore, someone must first bring the words of Huangquan out of the ancient country of Huangquan so that the heavy weapons of the underworld cannot suppress evil spirits. This is part of the ritual.
