[077] Gossip
Because of Zhong Kui and his friends' return, the silent Dead Water Bay became lively again. They became the guests of Dead Water Bay again, and every household killed chickens and sheep to entertain them.
As for the disappearance of the gangsters, their relatives also mobilized personnel to search and inquire. After no news, they had to give up.
Zhong Kui once promised to help salvage the missing bodies in the lake and put them on the shore. Calculate the day, but unfortunately, the third day is the Ghost Festival (Mid July) on the Miracle Day.
There are four sayings about ghost festivals among the people, including July 3rd, Qingming Festival, March 3rd, and October 1st.
The original plan was to return to City A to meet with Ran Qin after salvaging the drowning person ashore. Now it seems that the time has to be delayed, because some things have to be avoided in the days before and after the Ghost Festival.
Xu Qian only heard of the legend of the Ghost Festival and had never witnessed it personally. So when she saw a very tacit understanding in the Deathwater Bay, she asked about Vanilla curiously.
Vanilla told her that the Ghost Festival is a solar term that has been passed down to this day. In real life, the Spring Festival is a festival in the world (New Year). In the underworld, the Ghost Festival is also a world of the underworld (New Year). On this day, the Ghost Festival will open and be released.
Many ghosts.
It is also equivalent to the meaning of vacation in the world. After that night, the ghosts and the ghosts have to return to the underworld obediently, and do whatever they should do. Gui Kui, who is also disobedient, takes the opportunity to be nostalgic in the world and still has to
Only when Black and White Impermanence takes action will he be captured and returned to the underworld.
Xu Qian smiled calmly and said, "So that's it."
"Yes, let's see, they also have the custom of offering sacrifices to the Ghost Festival! On this day, both adults and children are cautious in their actions and speaking. They went to the market to buy dark paper, some ingots made of tin foil, and paper paste.
People, the so-called golden boy and jade girl, are ready to burn them to their relatives in the underworld on the night of the Ghost Festival."
"oh!"
"There are also some who do not burn it for relatives. Instead, those who burn it for some lonely ghosts must burn it at intersections or in relatively secluded places. This is called fulfilling the vow."
"Yes, fulfill your wish..." Vanilla smiled again and said, "Don't forget, what am I doing? Isn't this what my brother sells in the store?"
Xu Qian was stunned, as if she remembered something, "Then, should I burn it for them?"
"I want it, especially your sister Xu Rui... Hurry up, let's talk to Brother Zhong Kui and let him bring more dark paper back." As Fancao said, he grabbed Xu Qian and ran around the house.
, while running, shouted, "Brother, are you going to the market for Uncle Li?"
In the room, Zhiqing and Zhong Kui were discussing the missing people who accompanied the village chief to the uninhabited island. Vanilla's crisp shouts temporarily interrupted the conversation between the two.
"The girl still doesn't look like she is." Zhiqing quipped.
Zhong Kui shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Look at the scene after her marriage with Wengen."
"I'm going to do their business this time?" Zhiqing said in surprise.
"Of course, it's been delayed for a long time, and the days have been set aside, and there's no time."
"That's good, I'll have a drink of this wedding wine."
"Uncle Chen, give me the order. We will leave when Li Laoyao comes later."
Zhiqing nodded and handed him the order at hand, "You are looking at the data above, are you enough? If it is not enough, you are adding it appropriately."
"Okay." Zhong Kui took the order and quickly glanced over and said, "It's almost the same!"
The door opened and the vanilla came in, bringing a sense of enthusiasm and said, "Brother, don't forget the one from Sister Xu Qian."
Zhong Kui frowned with thick eyebrows: "I have already planned to do this for a long time."
Xu Qian then came in, and stopped being reserved, and smiled and said, "Thank you."
"Well! Where have you two gone?" Zhong Kui asked without expression after folding the order.
"I didn't go anywhere. I just saw many people going to the market, so I remembered that tomorrow and the day after tomorrow are Ghost Festival. Sister Xu Qian wanted to give her sister a set of clothes, so I came to find you." Vanilla said with a clever face.
Zhong Kui seemed to be worried, and looked at Vanilla and Xu Qian and told him: "By the way, let's go to the market, don't run around. Those good brothers have come out these days. If you are not careful, don't be followed by good brothers.
That's it."
"I know, I'll follow the boss's orders." Vanilla said naughtyly, sticking out her tongue. She pulled Xu Qian's arm and wanted to go out for fun again.
Wengen came in, raised his face and leaned over to her and laughed, "Vanilla, you are my wife. If you don't hold my hand, what's the use of holding Xu Qian's hand?"
"Who is your wife? If you don't have a wedding day, you will never be your wife, hum!" Vanilla said with a calm face and angrily, then raised her head and walked out with Xu Qian.
Wengen, who was frozen by Vanilla, was so embarrassed. He coughed and blew up Hong Fei and crawled to his neck, wishing he could find a crack in the floor and crawl in.
Seeing him afraid of Vanilla, Zhong Kui was secretly amused, but said seriously in his face: "Okay, Vanilla is so playful, don't worry about it."
Li Laoyao picked up a pair of baskets and shouted at Zhong Kui and the others.
Xu Qian and Vancao stood on the commanding heights of the stagnant bay and saw several men flocking to the west. In her mind, among the men, her brother Zhong Kui was the most eye-catching, ugly and full of courage. Among the men
The best.
Xu Qian was always depressed. The two of them squatted under a tuft of silk grass, holding a dog-tail grass in their mouths, and squinted their eyes and looked up at the blue sky.
"vanilla……"
"...Um..." At Xu Qian's shout, her gaze did not change, and she still stared straight at a flying little spot in the sky.
"Do you think that ghost elf will come to me?"
Vanilla sat upright and looked at her, "Ghost Elf? Probably not. Are you afraid of her?"
"No, I think the ghost elves are very pitiful..." Xu Qian smiled bitterly and said, "Will your brother marry Ran Qin after he goes back?"
When the other party asked this, Vanilla finally understood her intention. She used the ghost elves to open up the topic, and then turned to Ran Qin and Zhong Kui. Xu Qian's real purpose was actually to ask Zhong
The relationship between Kui Ge and Ran Qin.
"I don't know!" Vanilla smiled and said, then deliberately, "I have an idea, would you like to listen?"
"What?"
"So..." Vanilla said in Xu Qian's ears.
When he heard the other person's words, Xu Qian's face turned red with shame. She jumped up and reached out to pull the ears of the herbs. The two of them laughed and chased. A laugh rippled in the valley. Under the valley, not far away
At the same time, a pair of dark and melancholy eyes looked at them deeply.
Ran Qin had no news for a long time, and Zhong Kui was worried, but he didn't say it out. He went to the market and bought the items for sacrifice, mainly to help the people in Deshuiwan get what they want and salvage the drowning corpses.
Ghost Festival! It is also the day when the gate of Hell is open. If everything goes well, it is the best time to salvage after Ghost Festival. However, there are also certain risks. The corpses deposited at the bottom of the lake were originally a soulless puppet.
