"Then what are these shrouds for? They should also be prepared for the Yin Festival!"

Peng Hu pointed at the various shrouds on the street and said curiously.

"Of course, if it weren't for the Yin Festival, which normal person would happily buy a shroud and tie it with paper?" Hou Er stared at Peng Hu, are you stupid?

Peng Hu's mouth twitched, if it weren't for your young age, I would have slapped you!

"Ahem...what do you say about those shrouds and paper binding?" Ye Qing patted the back of Hou Er's head again. Not to mention, it felt very good. Is it any wonder that Gu Suitang, a poor man, likes to slap his apprentice's head?

Hou Er rubbed his head and said: "The Yin Ji is located in Fengdu, which is the underworld. The living body contains Yang Qi, so naturally it cannot enter directly, otherwise the Yin Qi and Yang Qi will conflict with each other, such as water and fire, and will be rejected by the Yin Ji.

.”

"And the shroud is the clothes that a living person wears when they are dying and buried, which is also the clothes they wear after death. Therefore, wearing a shroud can isolate the yang energy and safely enter the yin gathering."

"As for those paper tyings, they are just for ostentation and face, and have no effect. For example, when you enter Yinji, you take two paper figures with you. When you arrive at Yinji, those two paper figures will turn into golden boys and girls.

Attendant will be by your side; you can bring a paper carriage with you, and you can take a ride around Yinji after entering; and so on."

"Those things are just for show, to show off one's prestige, but are of no use."

Hou Er sneered: "It's useless, but it's useless, but I can't stand some people who are stupid and have a lot of money, so they like this tune."

"Furthermore, according to my observation, the poorer the people, the more they like to play around with this. They can't even wear the poor pants in Yangshi, but they want to be extremely noble in Yinji, which is better than those real people in Fengyang County.

The official is even more majestic, wearing a brocade hat and mink fur, and a horde of servants, who should he show it to?"

"You know so clearly, you must have been in the Yinji, right?" Ye Qing raised his eyebrows and smiled.

"Of course." Hou Er said proudly: "To tell you the truth, I have been to Yinji three times, and I am more familiar with Yinji than my family?"

"Very good, you can come to Yinji with us tomorrow!" Ye Qing smiled and patted Hou Er on the shoulder.

"Why!" Hou Er said dissatisfied: "Entering Yin Ji will cost a lot of Yang life, so I won't go!"

After all, they are living people. When they enter the underworld, the yin energy enters the body, which is very bad for the body and will damage the yang and longevity.

"Just because you are in our hands!" Chu Nianjiu sneered.

"Huh, what can I do in your hands?" Hou Er frowned and put his face up: "If you enter the Yin gathering, you will lose your Yang life. If you don't enter the Yin gathering, the most you will get is a beating. Which one is more cost-effective?

Even a fool can figure it out!"

"Come on, hit me, hit me!"

He just stole things, so the other party didn't dare to kill him. But people like this are the most annoying to deal with the government. They would not hand him over to the government. At most, they would just beat him up. What kind of thieves like him are there?

, if I didn’t get beaten three or two times a day, I would be embarrassed to say that I was just messing around, so nothing happened at all.

"Pah...pah..." As soon as Hou Er finished speaking, Ye Qing slapped Hou Er on the back of the head several times, knocking Hou Er unconscious.

"Are you really going to fight?" Hou Er held his head and his eyes widened.

"Didn't you ask us to fight?" Ye Qing said innocently: "By the way, this is the first time I have heard such a base request."

"Come on, let's beat him up first. It doesn't have to be too hard. Just break his hands and feet and beat him half to death."

"After beating him, hand him over to the government. Nianjiu, you are a member of the government. You will tell the county magistrate here later that he will be imprisoned for ten or eight years. Stealing is not a serious crime."

Hou Er's eyes widened and he stumbled, why don't you follow the script?

And listen, you don’t need to beat him too hard, just beat him half to death. Stealing is not a serious crime, just lock him up for ten or eight years. Is this human talk?

More importantly, the other party is still an official. Although I don’t know whether it is true or not, I would rather believe that it is true than that it is not true!

"Okay." Chu Nianjiu chuckled, clenched his fist and made a clicking sound.

"Pfft..." Hou Er's knees softened and he knelt down in front of the elders.

"Masters, did I talk nonsense again just now? Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I just took a few sips of yellow soup and my head is a little dizzy."

Hou Er shook his head: "What did you guys say just now? Oh, by the way, you want to enter Yinji, no problem. I am very familiar with Yinji, and I am willing to lead the way for you."

"Haha... from now on, drink less wine, you will easily miss things!" Ye Qing said with a smile: "Don't worry, we won't let you lead the way in vain. When the matter is completed, we will give you five taels of snowflake silver."

"Five taels of snowflake silver?!" Hou Er's eyes lit up: "You are generous, and I am willing to do your best for you."

Couldn't I have told you earlier that I had money? I've been beaten several times in vain. It's unjust!

"These gentlemen have just arrived in the city, and it seems they haven't found a place to stay yet!"

"Not yet." Ye Qing shook his head and said with a smile: "If you can help us find a place to live, these few silver coins will be yours."

Ye Qing threw a piece of snowflake silver to Hou Er, who hurriedly caught it and said with a smile: "Don't worry, sir, leave it to me, Hou Er."

"Although all the inns in Fengxiang Jiji should be full now, who am I, Second Master? I guarantee that I can find a place for these gentlemen to live well and eat well."

"follow me……"

With that said, Hou Er took the lead and walked forward, while Ye Qing and Chu Nianjiu who followed behind looked at each other and smiled.

If a ruffian like Hou Er is forced to blindly force him, he will become resentful. If he is directly induced to benefit, the other party will be greedy. Therefore, the best way is to use both kindness and power, hitting him with a stick and giving him a sweet date.

Will be obedient.

As expected, Hou Er was indeed a local snake in Fengxiangji. He quickly helped Ye Qing and others find a place to stay, not an inn, but a farmhouse.

"Uncles, this is my sister-in-law's house. You can stay here with peace of mind. If you need anything, just ask my sister-in-law. I will go and prepare things for you to bring to Yinji tomorrow night."

After bringing Ye Qing and others to the place, Hou Er first asked his sister-in-law to prepare meals for them, while he enthusiastically helped Ye Qing and others buy the things they needed to enter Yinji.

Ye Qing was not worried that Hou Er would take the opportunity to run away. Firstly, Hou Er did not have the courage. Secondly, Hou Er was greedy for money. He had not yet obtained the snowflake silver, so how could he be willing to run away?

…

After Hou Er left home, he did not go to the market. Instead, he walked around here and there until he came to a dilapidated grocery store and walked straight in.

"Old man Hu, are you there?"

Hou Er knocked on the counter and shouted.

"So it's Hou Er, why are you free to come to me today?" A lazy voice came from behind the counter.

The speaker was an old man over fifty years old, with gray hair and a hunched back.

Hou Erxiao said straight to the point: "We have business coming to our door!"

"Oh, are you fat?" Old Man Hu asked.

"Fei, I opened my mouth and saw five taels of snowflake silver without even blinking. Do you think I'm fat?" Hou Er said with a smile.

"Oh, that's really fat."

Old Man Hu smiled and said, "Do you know where they live?"

"It's at my sister-in-law's house." Hou Er said with a smile.

Old Man Hu smiled and said, "You are quite courageous. Aren't you afraid of causing trouble for your sister-in-law?"

Hou Er said coldly: "How could it be possible? My sister-in-law is just an ordinary person. They will definitely not suspect her."

"However, I think those people are all practicing practitioners. Old Hu, please don't get into trouble!"

Old Man Hu opened his mouth, revealing yellow teeth, and smiled broadly: "Old man, when did I miss my hand?"

"That's true." Hou Er laughed: "Then I'll be waiting for your good news."

"By the way, after things are done, the old rules are still the same, add two to one and make five, half of it comes to you and half to me, don't keep it to yourself!"

"Hey, old man, am I that kind of person?" Old Man Hu chuckled.

"Haha, you are." Hou Er sneered: "Don't think I don't know. Last time we cooperated, you secretly hid a piece of snowflake silver?"

"Don't talk nonsense. You were there at that time. When did I hide the silver ingot?" Old Man Hu looked innocent: "If you keep talking nonsense, old man, I won't do it anymore!"

"No, okay, I made a mistake." Hou Er said helplessly: "You threaten me with this every time, can you change your technique?"

"It doesn't take many tricks, as long as they work." Old Man Hu chuckled.

"Okay, I won't be poor with you." Hou Er waved his hand and said, "I have to go to work and give you something tonight."

"Okay, old man, I'm going to stare for a while." Old Man Hu signaled Hou Er to help himself, while he lay on the rocking chair behind the counter, humming a little tune, and closed his eyes.

…

At night, the moon is bright and the stars are few.

Fengyangji, which had been noisy for a day, slowly returned to tranquility.

After walking around Fengxiangji, Ye Qing and others returned to their rooms to rest.

After returning to the room, Ye Qing took out the Nanke. Before he could speak, Lord Bai and Lord Hei started to move. They looked at the snake's head and looked at Ye Qing. They said in a tone of resentful women in the boudoir: "Dear master, you

Have you finally remembered your lovely little Junjun?"

"Isn't it just a day ago?" Ye Qing rolled his eyes, there was so much drama.

"Okay, tell me your requests?" Ye Qing said directly: "How about I sing another song for you?!"

"Don't!"

"no!"

Bai Jun and Hei Jun said hurriedly, others cost money to sing, but your singing costs your life!

"Why, are you so unwilling to listen to me singing?" Ye Qing tilted his head and smiled.

"No, how could it be?"

Bai Jun apologized and said with a smile: "Master, your singing is really so beautiful. It's like this song can only be heard in heaven. How many times can you hear it in the human world? The lingering sound lingers for three days without stopping. Just the song last night, it's so beautiful."

It’s enough for us dull people to taste it for thirty or fifty years, so I won’t use it for now.”

"That's right, and it's the middle of the night. Master, it's not good if you disturb others. Even if you don't disturb others, it's not right to disturb the flowers and plants." Hei Jun also hurriedly agreed, speaking sincerely.

"Since you all said that, then... forget it!" Ye Qing shrugged. Of course he was just joking. He also knew that Lord Bai and Lord Black would never ask such a simple question again this time.

"Tell me, what are your requirements this time?"
