"Wu Huan, are you up so early?"
At dawn, Ye Qing got up and started practicing boxing in the yard.
After walking three times and practicing boxing three times, I saw Chu Nianjiu lazily walking out of the door.
"It's okay." Ye Qing closed his fist and said.
"By the way, I heard a little noise last night. Is nothing wrong?" Chu Nianjiu asked.
"It's nothing, just a few insignificant brats." Ye Qing said calmly.
When he was practicing last night, five little ghosts suddenly appeared in his house through the wall. Then without thinking, he shot the five little ghosts into ashes with one sleeve.
"Little ghost, where did it come from? This place is very popular and full of yang energy, how can there be a little ghost?" Chu Nianjiu asked doubtfully.
"The devil knows." Ye Qing shrugged and said, "By the way, where's Brother Peng? He's not back yet?"
"Not yet, let's talk about Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here." Chu Nianjiu was about to shake his head when he saw Peng Hu pushing open the door and walking in.
"Brother Peng, have you found anything?"
"No, I monitored it all night, and the person who cast the spell didn't show up." Peng Hu shook his head tiredly.
After settling in yesterday, he had discussed it with Peng Lin. The two of them would take turns monitoring the coffin cliff. Peng Lin would monitor during the day and he would monitor at night to ensure nothing went wrong.
"Brother Peng, are you and Peng Lin really not planning to enter the Yinji?" Chu Nianjiu asked.
Peng Hu shook his head: "No, Peng Lin and I have to take care of Peng Chuan and monitor Xia Coffin Cliff, so we won't join in the fun."
"If you go to Yinji, be careful."
"Thank you for your concern, Brother Peng. We know that." Chu Nianjiu and Ye Qing cupped their hands and said, "Brother Peng stayed up all night and must be sleepy. Go and get some sleep."
"Well, I'll go back to the room first." Peng Hu returned the salute to the two of them, turned around and went back to the room.
"Wu Huan, do you think the person who cast the spell will really show up?" After Peng Hu returned to the room, Chu Nianjiu approached Ye Qing and said.
"It's hard to say." Ye Qing shook his head, and then said seriously: "However, I hope he doesn't come."
"I hope so too." Chu Nianjiu shrugged.
Because, it is very likely that they cannot beat each other.
"By the way, why hasn't that boy Hou Er come yet? Didn't he say that he would take us through the process of catching up with the Yin Fair today?" Chu Nianjiu asked doubtfully.
"There's no rush, it's still early anyway." Ye Qing smiled.
If you want to enter the Yinji, it does not mean that you can enter the Yinji as long as you wear a shroud that night. You must also make a series of preparations in advance.
After a while, Lin Yuhuai and the little Taoist priest also got up one after another. After they finished their breakfast, Hou Er was late.
It's just that Hou Er's face is not good, his eyes are dark, and he is in a trance.
"Why, you didn't sleep well last night. What bad things did you do?" Ye Qing joked.
"No, I didn't do anything bad. I was at home all night last night." After hearing Ye Qing's words, Hou Er's expression changed and he subconsciously said.
"Huh?" Ye Qing was surprised. I just said that casually. Did it cause such a big reaction?
Hou Er also realized that he was overreacting, thinking that Ye Qing knew what happened last night, and subconsciously denied it, but it seemed that the other party did not know.
"Ahem... I don't know what's going on. I had a nightmare all night last night and I really didn't sleep well." Hou Er hurriedly changed the subject.
He was telling the truth. He fell asleep after coming back from Old Man Hu's house last night, but every time he fell asleep, he felt someone standing beside his bed and looking at him. He was so shocked that he broke into a cold sweat, but When he opened his eyes, he found nothing, every time.
Once, while half asleep, he even saw a figure standing next to his bed, bent over, head lowered, face to face, close to him, staring at him, which almost scared him to death. .
But when he woke up completely, there was nothing in front of him.
In this way, he couldn't sleep well all night.
"Nightmare, what kind of nightmare, tell us about it to make us happy?" Chu Nianjiu said with a smile.
"Haha, it's nothing. Are you ready? I will take you to prepare for the Yin Festival." Hou Er said.
"Then let's go." Ye Qing glanced at Hou Er, always feeling that the other party was a little weird, but the other party didn't want to say anything, so he didn't ask any more questions.
Hou Er took four people out and went straight to a temple called Judge Temple.
But the strange thing is that the Judge's Temple is not built on the ground, but underground. This is the Yin Temple.
It has been said since ancient times that men are above and women are below, yang is above and yin is below. Therefore, temples built on the ground are generally for living sacrifices, while temples built underground are for dead people. Therefore, temples on the ground are The Yang Temple, the underground temple is the Yin Temple.
As the saying goes, living people worship the yang temple, and the dead worship the yin temple. Yin and yang do not interfere with each other. That is to say, living people cannot worship the yin temple unless there are special circumstances. Otherwise, it is unknown and it is easy to provoke some unclean things; Dead people, that is, wandering ghosts, cannot worship the Yang Temple at will, otherwise their souls are likely to fly away when the Yang Qi rushes.
In fact, the imperial court generally does not allow private construction of Yin temples in various places, but I did not expect that there is a Yin temple in Fengxiangji, and it is not small in scale.
What's more important is that from the look of Hou Er, it seems that he wants to take them to worship at the Yin Temple.
Hou Er led Ye Qing and the others along the stairs, walked into the Yin Temple underground, and came to the main hall. There were two judges enshrined in the main hall, one civil and one military. However, compared to the civil and military judges enshrined in the Yang Temple, there were fewer There was a hint of coercion and solemnity, but a hint of gloominess.
"This judge statue is not simple!"
Ye Qing's pupils shrank. He could clearly feel that there was a strong Yin Qi on the two judges' statues, as if there were ghosts attached to them. However, this Yin Qi was sinister and not evil. It did not look like some kind of evil spirit. The aura of weirdness.
Hou Er led four people to the statue of the civil and military judge and said to the four of them: "We will wait a moment. The first step is to kowtow three times. This is called inviting the Yin God."
"Remember, when you kowtow, you must touch your head to the ground, be sincere in your heart, and kowtow loudly. The louder the better. As the saying goes, the louder the kowtow, the more rewarded the Yin God will be."
Reward for appreciation.
"Interesting." Ye Qing raised his eyebrows and smiled.
Hou Er gave a demonstration first. It could be said that he worked hard and hit his head with a bang. Fortunately, the ground was made of bluestone. If it had been a wooden board, it would probably have cracked.
After Hou Er finished kowtowing, Ye Qing clearly felt an extremely cold aura clinging to the two statues of judges, as if they were sizing up the people in the temple.
"The second step is to put the written birth date and name into this copper tripod. This is called the Yin Book." Hou Er got up and came to a three-legged copper tripod nearby, and put the birth date and name written on it. The wooden sign was thrown into the bronze cauldron.
Strangely enough, there was no fire in the bronze cauldron originally, but when Hou Er put the wooden sign into the cauldron, a burst of emerald green flames ignited on the wooden sign.
In the perception of Ye Qing and the others, the emerald green flame had no temperature at all. Instead, it was colder than the water of Sanjiutian Lake. Under the burning of the emerald green flame, the wooden sign was burned into a ball of ashes.
Hou Er reached out and dug through the ashes in the copper tripod, and unexpectedly took out a new token that was exquisite and mysterious, looking like gold but not gold, not like wood but not wood.
Hou Er took the token and said: "This is called the Yin Order. The appearance of the Yin Order proves that the Yin God has registered our names in the book and has also allowed us to enter the Yinji. Only with the Yin Order can the Yin God allow us humans Entering the Yin Ji, anyone without a Yin order will not be allowed to enter the Yin Ji."
"Remember, during the rush to Yin Ji, you must protect your Yin Order. Once the Yin Order is lost, the Yin Chai will be regarded as a person who broke into the Yin Ji privately. The Yin Chai will steal his soul on the spot and enter the 18th floor. hell."
"Let me take a look." Ye Qing took Hou Er's Yin Ling. The Yin Ling was Han Han's. One side was engraved with Hou Er's name, and the other side was engraved with the word "Feng". With his knowledge, he couldn't recognize what it was. Made of materials.
He clearly remembered that the wooden plaques Hou Er prepared for them were just ordinary willow wood.
"The material of this Yin Order is good, and it should be able to be stored for a long time. Haven't you been to the Yin Collection several times? There should be a lot of Yin Orders, right?"
"The uncle is joking. This Yin Order is only useful during the Yin Festival. Once the Yin Festival is over, it will turn into a ball of ashes." Hou Er explained.
"That's it." Ye Qing smiled, returned the token to Hou Er, and looked at Chu Nianjiu, Lin Yuhuai, and the little Taoist priest: "Which one of us goes first?"
"It's quite interesting. Let me do it." Chu Nianjiu was very interested. He walked to the judge's statue, imitated Hou Er, and kowtowed three times.
But just after kowtowing, the two judge statues suddenly started to tremble and banged three times, as if they were returning the favor.
"Ha..." The corner of Ye Qing's lips raised slightly. In the sense of demonic thoughts, he could clearly see that when Chu Nianjiu kowtowed, a bright yellow aura suddenly emerged from his body, and the bright yellow aura turned into an extremely illusory dragon. , baring his teeth and claws, roaring to the sky.
In the statue of the civil and military judge, two illusory shadows appeared. They seemed to be afraid of the phantom of the dragon in the sky, so they bent down and returned the three bows.
The bright yellow aura on Chu Nianjiu's body should be, as expected, the dragon aura of the Emperor. The Jing'an Guards are the emperor's guards, and Chu Nianjiu holds an important position in the Jing'an Division in Luoshui. He is a real official of Chu. Naturally, With the luck of the country and the blessing of dragon energy.
As for the two illusory shadows on the civil and military judges, it is likely that Fengdu has some evil intentions.
Chu Nianjiu was an official in the Yang world, and Yin Chai was equivalent to an official in the underworld, so naturally he couldn't bear to have him kneel down and kowtow three times.
"What's wrong?" Chu Nianjiu was puzzled.
Ye Qing smiled and said: "It's okay, let's continue."
Chu Nianjiu stood up as he was told and put the wooden sign that he had prepared long ago into the copper cauldron. After a while, the wooden sign was burned to ashes. Chu Nianjiu reached out and took out a Yin Order from the copper cauldron.
After Chu Nianjiu got the Yin Order, Lin Yuhuai also stepped forward, but he only kowtowed three times symbolically, without his head touching the ground at all. The statue of the civil and military judge also rang three times.
"Uncle, you can't do this, you have to touch your head to the ground." Hou Er said hurriedly.
"It doesn't matter." Lin Yuhuai seemed to have guessed something, and confidently put the wooden sign into the bronze cauldron. After a while, he took out his Yin Order from the bronze cauldron.
"This..." Hou Er opened his mouth. When did Master Yinshen become so magnanimous?
But he remembered that someone had done this before, and they were dishonest. Not only did they not get the order, but they got seriously ill after returning and almost died.
Why did he change when he came in front of this person?
"Immeasurable Heavenly Lord, I have converted to Xiaodao since I was a child. I only kneel to the Taoist ancestors and do not respect ghosts and gods. I hope that the two Yin Chai masters will forgive me."
Then, the little Taoist priest walked to the statue of the civil and military judge. He did not kneel down, but bowed his head. Then he walked to the bronze tripod and threw the wooden sign into it.
"Little Taoist Priest, you can't get the Yin Order like this? You have to kowtow." Seeing this, Hou Er said again, the uncle kowtowed three times, but you didn't even kowtow, it was too perfunctory.
But before he finished speaking, he saw the little Taoist reaching out and taking out a Yin Order from the bronze tripod. Hou Er's eyes widened immediately.
He felt like he was torn apart.
Master Yinshen, are you blind or sick?
