It was the middle of July, and the night was gloomy. A round of cold white full moon slowly passed through the clouds like clouds of light smoke, hanging in the middle of the night.

Niutou, carrying a bulging Qiankun bag, came to the hillside outside Chaoge City together with Ma Mian.

Can't help but sigh,

"I've been busy for so long, but I've waited for this day."

Ma Mian nodded in agreement, but said, "It's also thanks to Jiejiao Immortal, otherwise Cui's sentence alone, I'm afraid the list of Chaoge City will have to be sorted out until next year!"

Niutou untied the rope wrapped around the Qiankun bag.While puzzled,

"Speaking of which, this is also a great merit. Why doesn't the empress not let them come to Chaoge to watch the fun?"

More than ten days ago, Taoist Duobao, the great disciple of Jiejiao, led the Jiejiao immortal to the underworld.It is called training, but it is actually helping with work in advance.

It happened that Daji was going to start a plan to abolish human sacrifice, and the witch clan was not good at writing, so they called the Jiejiaoxian who had just arrived in the underworld to help.

Taoist Duobao has been in charge of Jujiao Wanxian for many years, and he is very skillful.Smiling next, together with Cui Pan, he sorted out the list of ancestors of the people in Chaoge City.

There are more than ten thousand people in Chaoge City, and the number of slaves is unknown.They had to single out the list of Chaoge people first, and then searched for their ancestors one by one.

Ghosts who have been reincarnated and who have committed serious crimes do not have the right to visit their relatives in the upper world. Only those who stay in the underworld and have relatively minor crimes can get this benefit.As for the ancestors who are not satisfied with the conditions, they are gone.

After the list was confirmed, those ghosts were brought up, and a mobilization meeting was held for them.Explain clearly the main task of releasing them back to Yangjian this time.

Jiejiaoxian loves to be lively, and several want to come together tonight.But the Empress Dowager refused.

It is only said that Chaoge City is the royal city of the Shang Dynasty, and there are people who are lucky.It was only a few days before they entered the underworld, and they were afraid of causing trouble to Jiejiao if something happened.Wait until Chaoge successfully obtained merit, then let Jiejiaoxian go to other places to observe and emulate.

The bull head and the horse said, and were about to release the ghost in the Qiankun bag, but a colorful peacock appeared in front of them out of thin air, turning into a handsome young man dressed in emerald green clothes with vigilant eyes.

"I don't know why the messenger came to Chaoge?"

That peacock shadow is Kong Xuan, the crown prince of the Feng clan.

Because of the fate of the mysterious bird descending to give birth to Shang, the luck of the Feng clan is connected with Shang, so Kong Xuan entrusted himself to chaoge to protect Tangjiangshan.

At this moment, he sensed a strong ghostly aura.

Niutauma looked at each other, but before he could speak, Daji, who had arrived earlier, appeared as Houtu and called Kong Xuan.

"Friend Kong Xuan."

"Houtu Empress?"

Kong Xuan was taken aback for a moment, recognized Daji's identity, and turned around to salute.

Daji smiled and said,

"You don't need to worry, fellow Taoist Kong Xuan. Hell must have no ill will toward Chaoge City. You'll know after a while."

Kong Xuan hesitated for a moment, then said respectfully, "Since he is a great virtue in the later land, I can trust it."

At that time, in the middle of the moon, everything in Chaoge City was silent and fell into a deep sleep.

Niutou Mamian opened the Qiankun bag, shouted "Go", and in an instant, countless semi-illusory gray figures rushed out, heading straight for Chaoge City.

"Here, ma'am—"

Kong Xuan was stunned, almost unable to suppress the five-color divine light on his body, and wanted to collect those ghosts.

But looking at Daji who is as stable as Mount Tai next to him, thinking of the compassion of Houtu incarnate in reincarnation, he still controlled himself.

The dense and gloomy atmosphere enveloped the entire Chaoge City in a short while, and the moonlight could not penetrate.

In the sky above the palace, an invisible mysterious light rose up, shaped like a mysterious bird spreading its wings.

It is the manifestation of the luck of the Shang Dynasty, trying to prevent a large number of ghosts from entering.

On the hillside outside the city, Daji scolded lightly, and released the token given to her by Fuxi and the Three Emperors.

Under the coercion of the ancient emperor, the mysterious bird representing Shang gave a low cry, folded its wings and retracted.

……

In Chaoge City, Yuchen, who was looking at the moon outside the window, suddenly got up and came out with a sword.

He has no mana, but his eyes can see evil spirits.

Seeing countless gray ghosts sweeping the streets and alleys of Chaoge like a hurricane, silently sneaking into thousands of households, Yuchen couldn't help frowning.

"What are they? Are you going to forget?"

He muttered a word, and saw a ghost about to touch into Bo Yikao's room.

He can't control so much elsewhere, how can he bear it under his nose?

What's more, Bo Yikao is still his friend.

Ever since meeting Daji under the pepper tree, Yuchen has always carried pepper fruits and branches with him.

This time it happened to be used to exorcise ghosts.

Using the branch as a sword, Yuchen stood in front of Bo Yikao's gate and shouted, "Stop!"

The hazy ghost was scared back a few steps by the prickly ash branch, which has the effect of exorcising ghosts.After standing still, I stabilized my emotions, and clapped my hands,

"I am Ji Chang's father, Bo Yi Kao's grandfather Ji Li, the gate of hell will open tonight, and I have come back to visit relatives and envision my dreams under the order of the Empress Dowager of the Underworld."

Seasonal calendar, Ji's surname, first name calendar.Because of his power, he was put under house arrest by Shang Wang Wending and died of a hunger strike.

Yuchen was not interested in Ji Li, but was slightly taken aback when he heard the name in his words.There seemed to be a strange emotion surging in his chest.

"From the underworld, Empress Houtu... Houtu?"

This name...why is it so familiar?

He was still reading the memorial a moment ago, as if he was just dazed, and Di Xin was already standing outside the Nine Halls.

In a trance, two rows of civil and military men can be seen standing quietly, the light and color are chaotic, dim and dark, and the appearance of the people cannot be seen clearly.There was a faint light coming in, and the room was full of color blocks, and it was not clear that there was a tall black shadow in the speckled shadows.

Di Xin felt something in his heart, and murmured,

"Father?"

The face of the black shadow suddenly became clear, and it became the appearance of the previous Shang king in his memory.

Di Yi, his father who had been dead for eight years.

It's fake.He is dreaming.

Realizing this, the light and shadow around Di Xin's eyes tended to collapse rapidly.

At the only place of light, Di Yi called out in a deep voice, "Zi Shou, have you forgotten your father?"

Because of this sentence, the collapse stopped.

Di Xin's emotions came slowly, but he was sure he was surprised.

He walked up to Di Yi, looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar face, then walked over Di Yi and sat on the throne in the high hall.

Only then did he look back and say,

"Father, please speak."

He is already a king, even if his father comes back, he will still be his subject.

Di Yi looked at Di Xin, and took out a frivolous object the size of a palm, his expression changed from annoyance to worry, with a bit of complacency in his worry.

"Uprightness is easy to break. If you are so like the former Jun Wuyi, I am afraid that you will be in an irreversible situation... Fortunately, my father has found you a new backer. If this can be facilitated—"

.........

Di Xin woke up suddenly, and swung his arm off the bamboo slips on the table, scattered all over the floor.

The copper lamp shines bright and warm light, everything is so clear.

He bent down to pick up a roll of scattered bamboo slips, but out of the corner of his eye, he saw a flimsy object the size of a palm.

Dark yellow, like silk but not silk, like bark, but smoother and thinner than bark.There are strange runes on it, similar to the witch script patterns used by witches.

"The land is only the back soil... Is this the Ming coin that the father said?"

Slowly tightening his fingers, Di Xin's eyes shone brightly.

If that dream is true, it may not be a good thing for him.

Unlike Di Xin who stayed up late to deal with official business, as Di Xin's favorite, Fei Zhong fell asleep early with his wife in his arms.

Dazedly hearing the ringing of the third watch, he fantasizes about meeting the most favored Empress Su in the harem, but the dream scene of how he will make a fortune in the future has an eerie look at his ancestor.

The thin old man shook Fei Zhong, who had gained weight in recent years, "Sun thief! You have caused me so much suffering!"

Fei Zhong, "???"

After some struggle, Fei Zhong finally recognized the old man's identity.He hesitated and called, "Grandpa?"

"You can recognize the old man, you still have a conscience!"

The old man let go of Fei Zhong, seeing that he was still not pleasing to the eye.

Fei Zhong was a little bit aggrieved, because the generations were far apart, he was not very afraid of this ancestor.Said somewhat dissatisfied,

"Grandson has been honoring his ancestors in recent years. In which year is the ancestor worship not carefully prepared? Why does grandfather treat me like this?"

It was fine if he didn't say anything, but when he said it, the old man was blown away.

"You still say! It's because your boy enshrines too many human sacrifices every year, and the judge has added hundreds of years of crimes to this old man!"

Fei Zhong was shocked, "How could this happen!"

"Why not!"

The old man was so angry that he jumped,

"This old man is better than your grandparents. This time I can use the gate of ghosts to come up... Grandson thief, listen carefully! If you don't burn enough ghost coins this time, old man, old man...you are not the grandson of this old man! "

Fei Zhong was completely dumbfounded. After digesting for a while, he asked carefully,

"Tell me in detail, what is it, what is the coin?"

Dreams similar to those of Fei Zhong spread to everyone in Chaoge City.

That night, everyone in Chaoge City could not sleep peacefully.

The ancestors who had been dead for many years came back one after another, holding a piece of dim Ming coins, and gave instructions to their descendants.

"This year, no gifts will be accepted for ancestor worship, only gifts - designated incense coins by the underworld!"

Those who are far away are more polite, mostly crying and begging.

There are those ghosts who died not long ago and who are more grumpy, directly grabbing the ears of the living descendants,

"Do you understand? If you don't understand, go to the underworld with my mother and listen to it again! If you delay your mother's reincarnation, don't be a mother and child and brothers and sisters in the next life!"

The implication is that this is to pull him away with him.

The junior was so frightened that he trembled, and agreed in a trembling voice, "Ming, I understand! Mother, don't worry, I will definitely burn more for you!"

"There are still human sacrifices! You can't ask for it! Empress Dowager Houtu said that you will suffer for another 100 years..."

"No, no! My child will release all the prepared human sacrifices tomorrow!"

"It's almost there."

The irritable old woman patted her son's head, expressing her kindness on her face,

"Mother is also for your own good. Although you are still alive, you will die sooner or later. You burn more, and mother will save it for you. When you come down, you will win at the starting line..."

Junior, "..."

Wonderful!As expected of my mother!

They didn't mention how they were taught in the dream. When they woke up, they touched a dark yellow rough coin.Immediately, the drowsiness disappeared, and goose bumps all over his body.

That dream is real! ! !
