……

As the saying goes: there is nothing wrong with being careful.

Right now, Bai Shibao and Wang Jingwei have become 'rats drilling holes'.Both arched their waists, not daring to move their feet, for fear of disturbing the Yin soldiers by the sound of their steps, so they had to support themselves on their elbows and knees, and slowly rubbed their bodies forward in the window, being extra careful...

"I don't know if Lin Daochang and the others escaped danger?"

Although Bai Shibao was in a sinister and dangerous situation, but he was still thinking about the affairs of the world in his heart, he was obviously a little anxious, and secretly shouted: "I hope that all the Taoist priests will be blessed with blessings, and the danger can be turned into good luck!"

Bai Shibao was thinking about it, but saw Wang Jingwei suddenly stopped in front of him, turned his head and made a quick gesture to Bai Shibao, pointing forward with his hand!
"Shh!"

Bai Shibao turned his face and glanced forward, and couldn't help frowning.

I saw a hole in the square window, and the whistling wind blows a strong fragrance into the window.Then I heard something like a ghost humming, I couldn't hear clearly, but it gave me goosebumps!
At this time, Wang Jingwei leaned on the hole and took a look, then slowly moved forward lightly, turned his head and gave Bai Shibao a wink, his lips moved without making a sound, signaling Bai Shibao to come quickly ...Bai Shibao nodded in understanding, followed by slowly moving forward...

Just before the entrance of the cave, he suddenly heard the sound of walking, Bai Shibao stopped subconsciously, and glanced into the cave with his head!
It turned out to be a room with doors and windows, and lamps were hung everywhere, and the doors and windows had been washed and oiled.There is a rope hanging on the window, the rope is tied to the fringe, and white paper flowers are tied in the middle. On the paper window, someone writes the word "soldier" in red with red paint!

There is an incense burner in the house, and a picture of "Hundred Immortals" is hung in front of the incense burner.

The gods that the people believe in are all painted on it, such as Sanqing Tathagata, Jade Emperor, Queen Mother, Erlang Zhenjun, Hehe Erxian, Xuanwu Wenchang, Wenqu Wuqu, Kuixing Shouxing, Guanyin Dashi, Thunder God and Lightning Mother , City God Land, Civil and Military God of Wealth, Guandi Stove King, Dragon King Medicine King, Wang Lingxian Official, Dragon King of the Four Seas, Sharp-eyed Empress, Spotted Empress, Baizi Empress, Nurse Empress, Sending Empress, Six Marshals, Three Heavenly Monarchs... No number, no number of gods, no distinction between Buddhism and Taoism, who counts who, count them all!

As the saying goes: Heavenly gods do not worship earthly ghosts, but earthly ghosts have to sacrifice to heavenly gods!

There is a saying in "Yincao Difu" worshiping "Nine Heavens Immortal Statue", which is called: "ghosts worship immortals, and live in heaven"!
Every season, when there is a feast of immortals, all ghosts will prepare red paper ink pens, paste gold paper on their cheeks, and place candles, incense burners, gods, altars, offerings, offerings, yellow coins, and paper silver on the table.As long as the candle is lit and the smell of smoke wafts out, the ghost immediately regains consciousness, its eyes glow, and its complexion turns normal.

Of course, if you forget to worship one, you will surely invite disaster!
Let's talk now.

I saw a person in the room wearing a bright satin black hat, the hat was rounded by the head, and a red glass bead was inlaid on the top of the hat, like a fresh cherry, very eye-catching!Look at his body again, he is wearing a blue-black double-breasted velvet horse lining, and a green lake-colored green gauze cotton gown underneath, with a row of bumps tied to his chest, all coiled into big "cloud" characters!
Dressed up authentically, it is the funeral dress that is popular this year!
Bai Shibao looked sideways at this man's face again, his eyes widened involuntarily, his lips trembled and he said, "Horse, horse..."

"Mr. Bai?"

Seeing that Bai Shibao was stunned, Wang Jingwei waved his hand at Bai Shibao and let out a soft cry!
The voice was as thin as a mosquito, but Bai Shibao didn't hear it, and stared at the person in the room with wide eyes.He was holding three sticks of incense in his hand, standing in front of the incense burner, his lips were twitching, as if praying for prayers.After reading, he put the fragrance into the incense burner, and then took a sharp inhalation with his nose, as if he was smoking a big cigarette, a puff of smoke went straight into his nostrils...

The three sticks of incense were sucked by this person, and they burned quickly!

In the blink of an eye, the incense burnt halfway, the man opened his eyes to see, but his body trembled suddenly, his eyes suddenly straightened, he was startled!
Bai Shibao looked again intently, it turned out to be 'Wan Xiangtou'.Right now, the lengths of the three sticks of incense are uneven, the middle one and the one on the left burn quite high, while the one on the right burns short.
The main culprit!

I saw this man turned around and picked up the scissors, went up to pretend to cut wax, took the opportunity to gently pull out the stick of incense on the right, and the three sticks of fragrance were pulled out to the same height. Said to a person behind him: "Look! The three pillars are high on one side, and the 'Ping An Incense' is burned out. It is safe and sound, good luck, and success in immortality!"

At this moment, it was dark and cold inside, and a dry voice came out from the empty space—"Why, you follow my brother and me to make your way, and you still worry that you will not be safe, that you will not get promoted and get rich? "

This voice was very familiar to Bai Shibao, so he hurriedly glanced sideways, and sure enough!

It was Xu Fu!

I just heard Xu Fu continue to shout: "If you are blessed, don't be busy, if you are not blessed, you will be heartbroken! If you are awkward, you will hide it in your heart, if you have something to hide, if you have something to hide, if you have a smile on your face, if you have a good thing to say, this is the way to be an official." Dao!...Look at the outfits that 'Seventh and Eighth Masters' rewarded us, it shows that our brothers are doing things neatly, and Seventh and Eighth Masters value our brothers! In the future, we brothers still need to do things. No matter how hard you work, you can steadily advance to three levels, maybe you will become a little fairy in the future, and let them pay homage to us!"

"If you rely on your stomach, you won't be able to put on your pants!"

Ma Guicha lowered his voice and replied: "It's too hard to do things too much...The 'Seventh Master' and 'Eight Master' use people to face forward, not backwards! You and I both know how this 'clothes' came about, Anyway, we have to be more careful in the future!"

Xu Fu replied: "Don't worry about this, I have my own measure!"

"only……"

Ma Guichai sighed and said: "Poor brother Bai, he is different from us, he has nothing to do with the underworld, he has no relatives or relatives, so he has suffered this nameless crime for nothing, it is really bad luck !"

"I?"

Bai Shibao was taken aback when he heard this!
Immediately afterwards, I heard Xu Fu say: "Why, do you really think of him as a brother?"

Ma Guicha frowned and said, "Don't deny it, you recognize this brother!"

"so what?"

After a pause, Xu Fu continued: "As the saying goes: Humans and ghosts have different paths, he is a human and we are ghosts, how can we be brothers?... At the beginning he forced me to burn paper to make a vow, but I didn't agree, didn't I just Afraid of this!... It's alright now, once in the Nether Mountain, once in the Ghost Judgment Hall, and he tricked us twice in succession. Do you remember the things you entrusted him to do at the beginning, but there is no trace of them so far, can you still trust them?"

Xu Fu saw that the ghost horse did not say a word, and after a pause, he added: "Today's matter is entrusted to us by 'Seven Lords and Eight Lords', and we can't blame him for his life or death!"

"Hey……"

The ghost horse sighed after hearing this, and then asked: "By the way, did you bring the money for those Yin soldiers?"

"Bring it, look at it!"

Xu Fu grinned suddenly, pointed at a large cloth bag he was stepping on, and then slowly unwrapped it with his hands... Bai Shibao looked intently, and found that the cloth bag contained a bundle of dry firewood tied with a red string. Then, there was a piece of gold paper pasted on it, with five big black ink characters written 'Really Big Gold Bar', with gold edging!

"firewood?"

The horse ghost exclaimed, "What are you doing?"

Xu Fu smiled strangely and said, "Too much salt is not bad for food, and it is not surprising to have too much courtesy. We call this: sending firewood (money)!"

"Evil spirit!"

Ma Guicha yelled, and then asked, "Where is the silver that 'Seventh Lord and Eighth Lord' gave us?"

"Yinzi? Why do you still say such nonsensical words?" Xu Fu lowered his face, frowned, and shouted anxiously: "Others say you have a sharp mouth and a bean curd heart, but I don't think it's right to say you are a bean curd heart. It should be: tofu brain!...Why, you have a lot of money, why don't you use it as money?...If you continue to do this, it is equivalent to using money as paper, and there will be more places to use money in the future, and the days will be longer Let's go!"

Ma Guichai asked: "Then how do you tell those Yin soldiers?"

"How to say?" Xu Fu said with a chuckle: "They killed people! How dare they go to Emperor Yin to sue me?... Don't worry, we have 'Seven Lords and Eight Lords' behind us, and our waists are strong! "

Hear this time!

Bai Shibao's face was gloomy, and he was trembling with anger. He couldn't take it any longer, he slapped his forehead, and suddenly felt that the sky was bright, and his voice trembled: "So you are the ones who want to kill me!"

A roar!
boom!
Bai Shibao slammed his fist on the edge of the hole, causing sand and soil to fly down, as if a handful of copper coins had been thrown, Xu Fu and Ma Guicha's heads suddenly rained like a 'money boom'!
Wang Jingwei shouted urgently: "Mr. Bai, they are ghost messengers, you don't want to go there..."

"You wait for me here, don't come out!"

After Bai Shibao said a word, he jumped out of the window and landed on the ground with his heels. His eyes scanned Xu Fu and Ma Guicha viciously, and he shouted angrily: "You are unkind, don't blame me for being unrighteous!" !Since the two ghost brothers don’t regard me as a brother, Bai Shibao, then let’s greet each other with our ability!”

"Why, why is it you...Brother Bai?" Ma Guicha was so startled that his mind went blank, but he suddenly remembered the 'Soul Broken Incense' he burned just now, and he couldn't help but feel cold all over his body, and his heart was cold as well!
Startled in heart, chilled in body, only Ma Guicha secretly thought that something was wrong, I'm afraid it's not a good omen...
