Xiang Que and Gao Boss stood outside the deep courtyard. Gao Boss squatted on the roadside and yawned, but Xiang Que didn't move for a long time.
"What are you looking at, big brother?" Boss Gao asked, stretching his neck.
"Do you know where this place is?" Xiang Que asked with a frown.
"Is it appropriate for you to ask someone who has never been out of a prefecture-level city in his life?" Mr. Gao said shyly, lowering his head.
Xiang Que put his hands in his pockets and looked at the pale yellow courtyard wall and the vermilion gate. At regular intervals on the courtyard wall, there were statues of the Dragon and the Nine Sons, Prisoner Niu, Yazhen, Chaofeng, and Pulao.
Suanni, Baxia, Bifan, Fuxi, Chiki. The two vermilion doors are carved with two five-clawed golden dragons.
Generally no one knows how to use Long Jiuzi to hold down a house, because ordinary people cannot afford it at all. They basically use one of them or stone lions, unicorns, etc. There are only a handful of Dragon Jiuzi used by various dynasties.
It was only used by the royal family of the ancient times, and the golden dragons carved on the two doors were also used. The five-clawed golden dragon represented the emperor and the four-clawed prince. The status of the three-clawed and two-clawed golden dragons was even lower.
Moreover, Xiang Que also noticed that the nine dragons on the courtyard wall and the five-clawed golden dragons on both sides of the gate had been illuminated, as well as the two stone lion statues in front of the gate. It is no exaggeration to say that these three places came to suppress the
Even if the evil spirits from the underworld come to the house at the same time, there is basically no possibility of breaking through this courtyard. This is a place where no evil can invade.
If such a place can be built and still exist, one can only imagine the people who live in this courtyard.
A generation of royal family, a legacy of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
Xiang Que could tell that the people in this deep mansion must be descendants of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, that is, the last remaining royal family in China, the Aisin Gioro family.
Otherwise, ordinary people would probably not dare to build this mansion in a grand manner. Firstly, they cannot afford it, and secondly, the country will not recognize it.
However, what surprised and puzzled Xiang Que was that since the descendants of the Manchu royal family lived in this courtyard, how could the lone grave on the hill behind Gao Lao's house pop up there?
The owner must have a deep relationship with the people in this courtyard, and that person must be a descendant of the Qing Dynasty royal family.
Xiang Que found out that he didn't really want to find out any secrets. He just wanted to know who burned the paper and actually burned the paper man alive. This kind of thing was rare.
Just out of curiosity, nothing else to ask for.
After death, people go to the underworld. If there are relatives alive, they will go to worship during festivals or birthdays and death anniversaries. It is normal to burn some paper money and utensils and so on. Then the relatives in the underworld will receive them. This is
Common sense.
When a person dies in the underworld, he does not reincarnate directly after death. There is a time difference from death to reincarnation. This time does not have a specific period and depends on each person. Just like if you have done a lot of good deeds in life, you will be reincarnated after death.
Humanely speaking, you must return to a good family, but if you don't find a suitable opportunity to reincarnate, you have to wait. If you have done too many bad things during your lifetime, you will be punished in the underworld after your death, and you will not be reincarnated until your sins are gone.
Therefore, some people often say that reincarnation is a technical job, and this is what they mean by saying that they saved the world in their previous life.
That means that when a person is reincarnated, he needs to wait for the right opportunity. During the period before reincarnation, he will have to live in the underworld. At this time, he will need to use paper money and ingots.
For example, some people will dream about their deceased relatives when they sleep. In their dreams, their deceased relatives will ask you for money or you will dream about them for several days in a row. There may also be relatives who tell you that they are cold.
, you don’t need to be afraid of being hungry or something, there is no explanation for this, it basically means that your relatives are short of money in the underworld, or it may be that you were too busy and forgot to send money to your relatives.
Find a day quickly, burn some money for your family at the crossroads, and say: "I'm going to give you money for so-and-so, take it to buy some food." That's it.
When burning paper, you should order a few extra pieces of paper money and throw them away. This money is for the ghosts wandering outside, to prevent them from robbing you when you give money to your relatives.
In addition to burning paper money, there are also burning cars, houses, paper figures, etc. This situation is normal, but it is actually useless. The things you burn cannot be sent to the underworld at all, and the underworld will not accept them. You just have a mentality.
It is comforting to think that your loved ones can live a better life, but in fact it is useless to give money as the most economical solution.
But there is an exception. If the person burning the paper or someone who practices Feng Shui and Yin and Yang is standing by to cast spells for your loved ones when burning the paper, then the burned items can be given away.
But you have to be careful when burning paper figurines. Sometimes burning paper figurines without understanding will cause trouble. Don't just write or draw anything on paper figurines, otherwise it may attract some strange things.
Just like the night before yesterday, it was like this when Gao Lao's family was back in the mountains. Xiang Que estimated that it would not be easy for the big Qingyi paper-burner's family.
Looking at it now, it is indeed not simple. There is no way for ordinary people to live in this deep house compound.
However, Xiang Que never imagined that the mysterious Xun'er girl he had been avoiding would be here at this moment.
Now it may be a little troublesome. If Xiang Que takes the female ghost from the back mountain without authorization, it may arouse the hostility of the owner of this place. If it is an ownerless ghost, it is okay to take it, but it is obvious that it will be taken.
The origin of Da Qingyi in Houshan is very extraordinary. He is actually a descendant of the Manchu Qing Dynasty. If he were to be accepted, there would be trouble.
Therefore, Xiang Que could only find Da Qingyi's descendants to explain the matter to them, and asked them to collect the bones and then pass away.
"Bang, bang, bang" Xiang Que walked to the door, pulled the copper ring and knocked on the door.
Not long after, footsteps were heard in the courtyard, and an old man in his sixties wearing a Tang suit came out and opened the door.
The old man looked at Xiang Que for a few times and asked calmly: "Who are you looking for?"
"Hmm..." Xiang Que thought for a moment, then asked tentatively: "Is the owner of this place here?"
"Who are you looking for?" the old man asked again.
Xiang Que blinked and thought about how to speak, because he really didn't know how to speak about this matter.
You can't just tell the other person directly that I found a lonely grave in a remote wilderness. It's haunted. Is this ghost a relative of yours?
Just as Xiang Que was about to speak again, he suddenly noticed a very familiar figure shaking in the yard behind the old man. The figure was wearing a palace costume with a veil shining on his face.
Although it was just a startling glance, and even Xiang Que thought he was dazzled, he still recognized that the figure was the girl Xun'er in the boat on the Qinhuai River.
"I...cao" Xiang Que's eyes went straight.
Then, he blinked very wittily and asked, "Does anyone want to apply for a credit card?"
