Daya pursed her lips, not very scared when she looked, but seemed to be smiling, as if she was a little happy.

Did I see it wrong? Xu Qilin looked at Daya's expression carefully, but he had turned into a smile.

"How can you be honest and obedient?" Daya put her elbow on the table, held her chin, and looked at Xu Qilin with a smile.

Is it okay to dance a erotic dance?! Xu Qilin rolled his eyes, dispelled this dirty thought, coughed, and said, "Just stay here honestly, and have food and drink to provide you with, and don't let you harm others."

"It's not okay to go out and take a walk?" Xiaoye glared at his big eyes and protested.

Daya poured a cup for Xu Qilin and smiled and said, "We have never harmed anyone. Look at Xiaoye, I can't even learn to scare people, but it shows that we are both good people."

The little ghost's tongue can reach the chin, which is actually quite scary.

Xu Qilin looked at the loli ghost who was just eating delicious food and swallowed it back.

"Okay, you can go out for a walk, no matter how others can't see you." Xu Qilin compromised, but then asked, "There are many ghosts outside, what are you dealing with?"

Daya curled her lips and said, "It's not what you think. There are not many wandering ghosts in the world. Those ghosts dare not provoke us, they all have to avoid them from afar."

As she said that, she took out Yu Ruyi and shook it, and said proudly: "See, this is also a magic weapon. This girl is a ghost who knows the Dharma."

It seems a bit contradictory for ghosts who are good at Taoism. Do ghosts also need to practice?

Seeing Xu Qilin's confused look, Daya rolled her eyes, raised her glasses and signaled her, drank it in one sip, and poured it on her. She didn't even eat the dishes, and she looked like a drunkard.

"I don't know where you got the magic weapon, which has both Yin and Yang eyes and can capture ghosts." Daya curled her lips with some contempt and said, "It seems that you don't often use Yin and Yang eyes. You are afraid to look at it. You think there will be wandering souls everywhere at night!"

Xu Qilin laughed dryly, but he was right, that's what he thought.

Daya snorted and continued, "People will starve to death without eating, and the same is true for ghosts. If a wandering ghost does not know the method, it will disappear naturally in no time. There are also heavenly punishment thunder tribulation and various taboos, which will also destroy ghosts."

Xu Qilin thought about it for a while and agreed.

As for a ghost, it should be considered an energy body, and like a human, it also needs to be replenished. Otherwise, the energy will continue to decline and eventually disappear. This is a bit scientific.

"Then you know the Dharma!" Xu Qilin stared at Daya and said with a smile: "If you are a ghost, how many years have you survived?"

Daya pursed the corner of her lips, chuckled twice, and said, "Well, I won't tell you, anyway, your aunt is taking advantage of you!"

Xiaoye laughed, pointed his little finger at Xu Qilin and said, "You have to call me aunt."

Tsk! Xu Qilin smiled. Although he knew this might be true, he was just unhappy and unhappy.

Daya smiled so hard that she leaned back and forth, stretched out her hand to stroke Xiaoye's hair, her eyes full of pampering and lovingness.

Xu Qilin wanted to open his mouth several times to ask "Can ghosts become humans", but he still suppressed his impulse. He just came into contact with him, don't worry, just observe for a while before talking.

After Daya smiled, she started drinking again, but the alcohol content seemed to be not very large. Perhaps it was because of the high level of wine. After drinking a pot of wine, she was already a little drunk.

"Boy, you don't have to be afraid." Daya smiled a little silly, and even Xiaoye rolled his eyes when he saw him next to him, "Man and ghosts have nothing to do with each other. People are even more powerful than ghosts. They should be ghosts. Ghosts are afraid of talents, so they should be ghosts."

"If you drink high, go back to your Yuruyi to rest." Xu Qilin said: "Have Xiaoye finished eating? I'll ask the servant to come in and clean up."

Xiaoye didn't eat much, so it was probably not easy to overcome the food in the world, and he only had two bites of each dish.

"Sister, I'm going back to rest!" Xiaoye stood up and pushed Daya who was lying on the table.

Daya blinked her sleepy eyes, looked at Xu Qilin, then looked at the girl, muttering something that no one could understand, and turned into smoke and disappeared into Yu Ruyi.

Xiaoye sighed and turned to Xu Qilin and said, "The Ullambana Festival will be in two days. Will you give food to hungry ghosts? They are also pitiful."

Xu Qilin nodded and said, "You can do it as soon as you say it, it's not difficult to do."

Xiaoye opened his mouth and smiled, saying, "If you lack money, I will help you, which can be regarded as the cost of my sister and I'm going to eat."

Xu Qilin nodded and said, "I guess you know that someone is a wealthy person, why is he short of money?"

Xiaoye blinked, and suddenly stretched out his tongue at Xu Qilin, red until his chin. Then, with the giggling chuckling, it turned into nothingness and was thrown into the mud doll.

If this little naughty ghost is practiced until he spits his tongue into his chest, he can barely scare a few people. He looks like a lazy ghost and doesn't practice scary kung fu well.

Xu Qilin smiled and shook his head, and called the servants to come in and clean up.

…………………

When you were a child, you were afraid of ghosts, but when you grew up, you will find that humans are more terrifying than ghosts.

Although Xu Qilin has not experienced the pain of being harmed by others, he also knows that many people do evil things. They kill people like numb, violent and cruel. There have been many such evil people in history.

Therefore, as long as these two ghosts are not harmed, Xu Qilin is willing to raise them like this. Well, it is not for nothing, they have given them money.

Finally, the ghost was settled, Xu Qilin returned to the courtyard of Chang'an the next day. When he returned home, Xiao Zhao and others entered the mansion.

"I almost forgot the Zhongyuan Festival. This excitement cannot be missed." Xiao Zhao saw his brother and explained: "There is also Princess Jinyang, who has been approved by His Majesty. Let A Ke and I go to Jiucheng Palace to accompany her."

Xu Qilin touched the little sister's head and smiled and said, "I don't want to go, I look bitter."

Xiao Zhao sighed and said, "There are many royal rules, so how can you be as casual and happy as you are at home."

Xu Qilin agreed with this, but he had to comfort the girl and said, "At most, the emperor will return to Chang'an for one month. After spending the time to travel back and forth, he will be able to stay in Jiucheng Palace for more than ten days, and it will be very fast."

Xiao Zhao nodded and said, "I will go to Jiucheng Palace after the Zhongyuan Festival and walk slowly on the road."

He was so resistant to the palace and the like? Xu Qilin looked at his younger sister and thought it was good, and it should be his indoctrination that played a role.

Calculate the time, I only stayed in Chang'an for a month at most, so I had to go to Luoyang and even walked on Cao Road. Thinking of this, Xu Qilin was also a little reluctant and melancholy.

If we had a greater goal for our loved ones, based on our current industry and investment projects, Xu Qilin could have enjoyed a happy life and lived a happy life and waited for death.

With these subtle and complex emotions, Xu Qilin returned to his yard and saw a large basin placing there at a glance.

"Alang is back." What is rare is that Ajiani came up first and greeted her.

Xu Qilin pointed to the large pot containing the banners and candles, and asked in confusion: "What is this for? Could it be prepared for the Zhongyuan Festival?"

"Yes!" Ajiani nodded and said with some excuses: "This is what Sister Jiali and I asked the housekeeper to buy. We also have to buy some flowers, fruits, snacks, and vegetarian dishes in the basin to be considered complete!"

Xu Qilin smiled and said, "Well, I'm not at home, thank you for your hard work."

"It's not hard, it's hard at all." Ajiani seemed very happy, followed Xu Qilin happily into the house, and said, "Sister Jiali is practicing riding donkeys behind! By the way, the donkey has a name, named Zhan Ya."

"Is it my mother?" Xu Qilin didn't pay attention to this. He couldn't help but laugh and said, "I just said that a stubborn donkey and a stubborn donkey have a little donkey temper."

After stepping into the outer room, Xu Qilin found that the table was full of confusion, fruits and snacks were placed randomly, and it seemed that he was enjoying it first by A Jiani, a foodie.

Hehehe, Ah Jiani smiled embarrassedly without waiting for Xu Qilin to see her.

Xu Qilin waved his hand indifferently, and whoever eats it was different. He said that he was worshiping gods and Buddhas, but he took it down and went into the belly of monks of all sizes in the temple.

"Xiaoqi and Xixi brought back the letter from His Highness the Princess." Seeing that Alang did not blame him, Ajiani couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and reminded him: "It's on Alang's desk, and neither Sister Jiali nor I read it."

Xu Qilin nodded, walked towards the inner room, and said, "I will read the letter first, and you can continue to enjoy the offerings, and then put the rest in a basin."

"Thank you, thank you, Ah Lang." Ah Jiani thanked her repeatedly, then brewed tea with diligently, and then left.

Xu Qilin leaned on the sofa and loosened his muscles before taking the small bamboo tube from the desk, pulling out the letters inside to open and view them.

Yizi didn't have any serious matters to talk about. It seemed like she was chatting when she read the letter. Maybe she liked this way of birds sending letters and pen pals communicating.

The letter specifically mentioned that she was still drinking orange black tea, and the frequency of chest tightness and cough decreased a lot in previous years, which was very effective. Yizi also said that she sent someone to give the prescription to her sister Princess Changle because she was like herself, and she also had qi.

Qi disease is almost the asthma defined in later generations. Both Yizi and Princess Changle were inherited from her mother, Empress Changsun. According to Xu Qilin's observation, it is not allergic, but rather like cardiogenic asthma, usually caused by heart disease or hypertension.

His Majesty Li Er must have high blood pressure, which was collectively called wind disease in ancient times, and the descendants of Li were also troubled by this genetic disease.

Asthma and hypertension are also uncurable diseases in later generations. For the sake of the present, we can only strengthen our physical fitness through exercise, and then reduce the disease or the frequency of the disease by diet therapy and tea therapy.

Little Gongju, you are a child with pure conscience and love in your heart. I also hope that you can grow up healthily and become a dazzling royal pearl, rather than dying before you bloom.

Xu Qilin was quite sad when he thought of the passing of Yizi before he could pass away. Although he had tried his best to change, he could not remove the shadow in his heart.

Weizi is kind-hearted and also mentioned in the letter that she invited Xiao Zhao and A Ke to Jiucheng Palace, and promised that A Ke would be well taken care of and would never treat her as a civilian.

Xu Qilin pursed his lips and smiled, took out paper and pen to write a reply to Xiao Yizi.

……………………

On July 15th, Taoism is called Zhongyuan Festival and Buddhism is called Ullambana Festival. Because it is necessary to feast monks and Taoists, worship ancestors, and save the dead souls, the people also call it the Ghost Festival.

Although the names are different, the connotations of the festival are similar. They pray for blessings and forgive sins for their dead relatives, and prepare offerings to feed hungry ghosts in the underworld to prevent their souls from suffering.

It was originally a very solemn and solemn theme, but it turned the Tang Dynasty into a grand festival that involved the entire people, from emperors to peddlers and pawns.

Xu Qilin is not surprised by this. During the four-day holiday of the Tang Dynasty, people all went outings, picnics, and sang and dance happily, let alone the Ullamban Festival.

So, Xiao Zhao was in a hurry to come back and watch this lively and celebrate this happy "Ghost Festival" for the whole nation.

Early in the morning of July 15th, Xu Qilin took Xiao Zhao, Scarlett and others out of the mansion to the temple.

First, we will follow the theme and everyone came to the temple in this yard to worship a large basin. Anyway, it was for the Buddha to eat, and the monks would benefit from it in the end. There was no need to choose the size of the temple, just a sign of sincerity.

Another advantage of sending offerings to small temples is that you don’t have to compete with others and see other people’s offerings.

Moreover, the big temple may look down on this offering, but the small temple is overjoyed, with a kind attitude and a diligent hospitality.

"Brother, look at the largest basin in our house!" Xiao Zhao pointed at the Buddha's basin and grinned with his little mouth smugly.

Xu Qilin smiled and nodded, feeling very good.

In fact, this is Scarlett is not willing to spend money. The first time I handled it, although the funds are sufficient, it is still not generous enough and dare not be extravagant.

Ajiani stared at the vegetarian dishes, snacks, and fruits in the basins served in other houses. After a look, she was not better than her own, so she thought about eating.

There are also many pilgrims who offer pots, and the common people have to be more interested. What's more, this is to offer to our ancestors!

Xu Qilin and everyone walked around the temple and completed their work today. The rest was to go to the big temple to watch the fun.

Last night, Xiao Zhao and Scarlett and the others agreed to go to Daxingshan Temple in Jingshanfang first, and then to Qinglong Temple in Xinchangfang. If you have enough time, you have to go to Ximing Temple in Yankangfang.

Daxingshan Temple is amazing. It was a royal temple in the Sui and Tang dynasties, covering an area of ​​one yard and was also one of the three major translation sites for the translation of Buddhist scriptures in Chang'an at that time.

Everyone got on the car, Xu Qilin, Wu Sheng and others rode their horses to Daxingshan Temple. Before they reached the place, they could not walk and could only stop by the roadside and wait.

There were crowds of people on both sides of the road, and they were watching the royal "delivering officials" team. The emperor provided offerings to his ancestors, and the scene was naturally extremely grand.

"Brother, hold me and see." Xiao Zhao stretched out his hand and asked Xu Qilin to carry the horse to see the royal pot style.

Scarlett and Ajiani stood in the car, tiptoed, stretched their necks to look at each other, and were full of excitement on their faces.
Chapter completed!
