After dinner, Ling Ye and Fang Yuke finished cleaning up and saw Fang Yuke's parents playing with something there.
This aroused Ling Ye's curiosity.
Ling Ye turned to Fang Yuke and asked:
"What are your parents doing?"
Fang Yuke glanced at his busy parents and explained:
"Oh, they are preparing to worship God and invite Ieyasu."
"Please Ieyasu?"
Seeing that Ling Ye still didn't understand, Fang Yuke patiently explained everything.
The gods usually worshiped are the God of Wealth and the Kitchen God.
Originally it was the New Year's Eve to worship the Stove King, but Fang Yuke's hometown wanted to worship the Stove King together on New Year's Eve.
As for the so-called "Qing Jiakang", it was originally called "Qing Jiakang", but as the older generation got used to it, it was also called "Qing Jiakang" locally.
Later, everyone found that it was quite easy to pronounce, so they did not change the name. After all, everyone knew the original meaning.
On this day, New Year's Eve is a festival of reunion. A banquet will be held at home to invite the ancestors back home for reunion.
"Ling Ye, let's go, let's go help too."
Ling Ye heard Fang Yuke calling him and shook his head:
"No, I'm a little dizzy. I'll take a rest first. You can go first."
Seeing Ling Ye looking very uncomfortable, Fang Yuke didn't force himself and ran to help.
Just as Ling Ye was lying on the bed, Qingdi's voice came to his ears:
"Ling Ye, run the Qing Emperor Immortality Kung, faster!"
Although he didn't know why Qing Emperor urged him so urgently, out of his trust in Qing Emperor, Ling Ye lay on the bed and activated the Qing Emperor Immortality Technique.
With the operation of Qingdi Changsheng Gong, Ling Ye's physical discomfort gradually disappeared a lot.
By the time Fang Yuke and their parents returned to the room, Ling Ye had already finished his exercise.
All the discomfort in the body disappeared.
Fang Yuke ran over first and looked at Ling Ye worriedly:
"Ling Ye, is it okay? You look so bad."
Ling Ye shook his head and replied:
"I'm sorry for making you worry. I'm fine. Don't worry."
Hearing Ling Ye say that he was fine, the two elders felt relieved.
Then Fang Yuke’s father said:
"Young man, since you're all here, we're going to worship the gods soon. How about you join us and worship me?"
Ling Ye hesitated for a moment, but after seeing Fang Yuke's pleading eyes, he had no choice but to nod and agree.
Ling Ye followed Fang Yuke's parents to the yard and was stunned when she looked at the statues placed there.
What's this?
Xu could see Ling Ye's confusion before Yuke explained:
"You haven't seen it before, have you? It's the only village like ours that still has this custom. The one on the left is the Kitchen God, and the one on the right is the God of Wealth."
Ling Ye was stunned when he heard Fang Yuke's words.
Is this the God of Wealth?
Is this the Kitchen King?
Right?
These two people are related to me, right?
They don't look like this, right?
The two statues in front of me look more like monsters than gods.
Seeing Ling Ye still standing there in a daze, Fang Yuke pulled Ling Ye's trouser legs and said:
"Hurry up, Ling Ye, kowtow! Why are you standing there in a daze?"
Ling Ye nodded blankly and was about to kneel down but found that he couldn't kneel down anymore.
It was as if there was a force that prevented him from kneeling down.
what is going on?
Seeing that Ling Ye was still unwilling to kneel down, Fang Yuke's parents were a little unhappy but didn't say anything.
Fang Yuke quickly tried to smooth things over:
"Well, parents, Ling Ye may not have participated in this kind of thing before. I kowtowed on his head for him."
My own daughter had said so, and the second elder had nothing to say. He just looked at Ling Ye with some dissatisfaction and went back to the house.
This made Fang Yuke feel a little blamed:
"Ling Ye, what's wrong with you? If it didn't work, you should have stopped agreeing just now!"
Then he went back to the house angrily.
Looking at Fang Yuke's back, Ling Ye stood in a daze. What was going on?
Could it be?
Qing Emperor?
Why did Qingdi do this?
Ling Ye tried to call Qing Emperor in his heart but found that Qing Emperor seemed to have disappeared without any movement.
Seeing that Qing Emperor didn't want to care about him, Ling Ye didn't have time to go to Qing Ming Space to take a look, so he sighed and returned to the house.
After seeing Ling Ye return to the house, Fang Yuke's mother came over with a smile:
"Young man, you have to tell me about this kind of thing earlier next time. I have just helped you comfort my old man and my daughter, so be careful next time!"
just?
Ling Ye was stunned by Fang Yuke's mother's words.
I just stayed in the yard for a short while.
But seeing that the result was good, Ling Ye didn't think much more about it.
Then he saw Fang Yuke's parents seeming to be packing their bedding, which made Ling Ye confused:
"Uncle and aunt, what are you doing?"
Fang Yuke's father smiled and gave Ling Ye a look that would make any man understand:
"My dear, aren't you and your daughter back now? Let's go to his uncle's house tonight, and we just want to spend the whole night playing cards together to celebrate the New Year."
After cleaning up, the two elders left the place, leaving only Ling Ye and Fang Yuke in the house.
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
Fang Yuke pinched the hem of his skirt and looked like I won't resist whatever you want, which made Ling Ye burst into laughter.
"Okay, you stay in the house. I always feel a little awkward. I'll go to the courtyard to get some fresh air."
Seeing Ling Ye leave the room, Fang Yuke pouted and said:
"Ling Ye! You are just a piece of wood! Alas!"
After Ling Ye came to the courtyard, he calmed down and came to Qingming Space.
Qing Emperor seemed to have guessed that Ling Ye was coming, so he set a table here with two cups of hot tea on it.
"You came?"
Ling Ye nodded and said:
"I'm here, Emperor Qing, what's going on?"
The Qing Emperor patted the gilt beast on the forehead, and the gilt beast acted like a cute puppy around the Qing Emperor.
"Why are you in such a hurry? Let's sit down and have a cup of tea first."
Ling Ye shook his head and rejected Qingdi:
"Qing Emperor, I have no intention of drinking tea. Tell me, what is going on?"
"Don't ask. Knowing too much will not do you any good. You will leave here in a few days. Since you don't want to drink tea, just live in peace for the next few days and then leave."
"Qing Emperor, do you know something?"
Qing Emperor shook his head without answering, then waved his hand and Ling Ye was kicked out of Qing Ming's space.
After Ling Ye returned to his body, although he didn't know what happened, he felt vigilant in his heart.
The strange behavior in Aoqiong Cave and Qingdi's strange reaction made Ling Ye feel that something was about to happen.
Ling Ye glanced at Fang Yuke inside the house, and then disappeared into the courtyard.
Ling Ye wanted to know what it was.
This feeling of not being under one's control made Ling Ye feel very uncomfortable.
After circling the entire village several times, Ling Ye didn't find anything unusual.
Every household is celebrating the New Year's Eve festival, looking like a family.
But Ling Ye always felt that something was wrong.
As Ling Ye became more vigilant, everything in the village made Ling Ye feel a little uncomfortable, and everything seemed very awkward.
Is there any secret in this village that I haven't discovered yet?
With doubts, Ling Ye walked around the village again but still found nothing, so he sighed and returned to Fang Yuke's home.
