Hungry Ghost Festival?
There are four major ghost festivals in Jiuzhou. This is an opportunity for people to meet their dead relatives. On this day, people can express their longing for their loved ones by burning paper money and other methods.
Therefore, these four days of the year are also the times when the yin energy is the heaviest. Chinese website
The four major ghost festivals in our country are Qingming Festival, Hungry Ghost Festival, Shangsi Festival, and Hanyi Festival, and their dates are respectively April 5th in the Gregorian calendar, July 15th in the lunar calendar, third day in March in the lunar calendar, and October 1st in the lunar calendar. The four festivals all have the legend of hundreds of ghosts walking at night.
I asked why the yin energy today is heavier than usual?
"Xiong Bin, let me ask you, do you want to see ghosts?" I said furtively to one side.
Xiong Bin shook his head: "It's not like I owe it. Let's see what that thing does. I don't think so. If I have this time, I want to play two more games!"
And I didn't care what he thought, I just took his arm and walked outside. As I walked, I said, "Come on, you're welcome to follow me. It just satisfies your curiosity!"
"This is really impossible..."
While I was talking, I had already dragged Xiong Bin to the door of the store. Sure enough, at the intersection of this street, I could vaguely see someone burning paper money...
"Brother Ninth, why don't we just forget it? How can we be so panicked in the middle of the night?" Xiong Bin said helplessly, rubbing his shoulders.
"Have you ever heard of a saying that if you get caught in the rain, you should break other people's umbrellas?"
With that said, I opened my heavenly eye, and then slapped the life fire on Xiong Bin's shoulder!
There were three fires on the person's head and shoulders. If the fire was small or if the fire was extinguished, there was a risk of seeing a ghost, so I directly put out the fire on Xiong Bin's two shoulders!
Then I swaggered into the house...
The next second, I heard a sound like a ghost crying or a wolf howling from outside the door. It was so miserable!
Let you make fun of me when you have nothing to do!
"If you can't bear it anymore, just come into the house. There is a talisman I posted on the door. It will be fine if you come in!" I grabbed the apple on the table and said slowly.
Then, I said to the little girl who was watching the joke: "By the way, girl, how is your sister Yuxi doing?"
The little girl was obedient, nodded, and said seriously: "The situation is still the same. Except that I can't wake up, everything else is fine. The yang energy in my body has gradually solidified. Don't worry, brother, I will look at Sister Yuxi every day. Yes, if anything happens, I will tell you!"
Hearing this, I nodded with relief: "That's good, thank you for your hard work, girl. I may have to leave for a few days, and Sister Yuxi will be left to you!"
"What? Brother, where are you going?" The little girl asked anxiously.
I patted the little girl's little head and said softly: "Don't worry, I'm not doing anything dangerous. I'll be back in a few days. Just treat it as a trip!"
"Then I'll go too!"
"You can't go. What will happen to my store if you leave? I don't feel safe leaving it to that fool. You are my little cotton-padded jacket. And if you are not here, what will happen to Sister Yuxi?"
"Ugh...okay!"
Three days passed in a blink of an eye, and in the evening of the third day, Fan Wujiu arrived as promised and landed in his room!
"Master Ba, you really kept your promise?" I said solemnly.
"How can you break your promise? Stop nagging and come with me?" In the darkness, Fan Wujiu said calmly without even showing his face.
After cleaning up briefly, I went to Yuxi's room and took a look at her. Looking at her face, I silently said, Don't worry, I will definitely save you this time! !
After saying that, I followed Fan Wujiu and left the room.
"Master Ba, are we going directly to Hades?" I asked curiously on the way.
"yes!"
"Then, how do we get there? Is there some kind of gate to Hades? Or can we enter from anywhere?"
This is what I'm more curious about
A problem, because everyone in the world knows the existence of Hades, but no one in the world says that there is an entrance to Hades. In other words, it is hard to say whether Hades is a real place or not!
"Just follow me. The underworld does exist, but there are many portals. If you are a highly trained person, you can enter the underworld by sitting down. For example, if you want to, you can go back at any time, but you can't. So I have to find a place to open the gate of Hades for you, and everyone can pass through this gate!" Fan Wujiu said coldly.
Found a portal?
"What portal?" I asked directly without thinking.
Fan Wujiu was not annoyed, nor was he irritated by my question. Instead, he stared ahead and said calmly: "The first stop for ghosts entering the underworld is the Earth Temple!!"
After following Fan Wujiu for about an hour, I finally found a rather dilapidated earth temple in Tai'an City. It was an independent house. It was very small and could only accommodate two or three people. I could vaguely see it. There is still some incense here occasionally, but not much. There are only a few incense sticks in the incense burner in front of the temple, and they have been lit. You can clearly see that there is dust on the incense table...
"Just here, there are few people!"
With that said, he stepped into the earth temple.
I followed closely and walked in. After arriving at the temple, Fan Wujiu took out something like a jade pendant and waved it towards the ground in front of him, as if he was taking out a customs clearance document.
The next second, a dark wind swept through the entire Earth Temple, like an earthquake, rumbling and shaking, as if it would collapse at any time.
"Fortunately, the incense in this earth temple has not been completely cut off. Otherwise, if the worship is lost, the god will no longer exist, and this earth temple will lose its function. But maybe it won't be long before this place will be deserted. People today have long lost the sense of awe in their hearts, and gods may really only become legends in the minds of some people in the future!"
Fan Wujiu sighed, and then tapped the air in front of him with his fingertips. Then cracks appeared in the originally calm air, and then a vortex appeared in the Earth Temple without any warning. Then the vortex became bigger and bigger, just In just a few seconds, it grew to the height of a person.
Then, Fan Wujiu raised his hand towards me and said, "Let's go, kid, the underworld you have been thinking about is right behind you!!"
After saying that, he took the lead and jumped into the whirlpool...
I took a deep breath and looked at the whirlpool in front of me. Is there Hades behind this?
It would be false to say that I didn't have any scruples, but now that the arrow was on the string and I had to shoot, I cheered myself up, and then without any hesitation, I accelerated and crashed into the whirlpool!
The moment I entered the vortex, I felt dizzy and a strong sense of weightlessness spread throughout my body, as if my whole body was falling at a rapid speed...
