Chapter 24: The Ceremony of the Chun God

It is said that the sage made a character with fish and sheep, and called it "fresh".

The rumors are so old that they can no longer be verified.

But the meat of fish and mutton is indeed delicious.

The two fishes Ye Xuan got this time were far less big than the last time, but the fried fish seemed thin.

So I cut off the mutton from a mutton leg left at home, used the mutton bones and some herbs to make a milky white soup, stir-fried the mutton, stuffed it into the belly of the fish, sewed it with silk thread, and then fried the fish and added it.

Add thick soup, simmer, and a fish and mutton dish is completed.

Ye Xuan was not a famous chef in his previous life, and the restaurant he opened was also a home-cooked restaurant.

This was his first time making this fish-and-mutton dish, but because of the delicious ingredients, it had a different flavor. Even my daughter ate a whole fish and an extra bowl of rice.

After lunch, Ye Xuan brought a wicker chair and let his daughter sleep on the wicker chair.

He went to the bedroom, sat in front of the table, holding a carving knife, and gradually carved out the pile of ghost bones on the table.

The bones were divided into two piles on the table.

One pile is irregular-shaped bones that have not been polished, some with sharp edges; the other pile is polished and carved talisman, two knuckles long and one and a half knuckles wide.

Whenever he has free time these days, Ye Xuan polishes and carves the bones. Now he has polished thirty-six talisman tablets, with no spells engraved on them.

The ghost is a strange species. Its flesh and blood can strengthen a person's qi and blood, increase his physical fitness, and his bones are also extraordinary. As a talisman material, it is much better than the black spirit wood talisman.

Ye Xuan planned to collect at least eighty-one talisman cards. He thought that if he had a chance to get a secret book of talisman armor in the future, he could engrave all these talisman cards with spells on the talisman armor and make a talisman armor for his daughter to wear.

superior.

It is extremely difficult for a warrior in the physical realm to see that Nannan is a natural elf, but a warrior in the spiritual realm can easily see it.

Wearing the talisman armor, Nannan can hide and disguise herself, and it can also provide her with strong protection - if Ye Xuan is gone, she still has a chance to survive.

Ye Xuan carved a blank talisman, looked up at his sleeping daughter outside the window, and suddenly sighed.

The value of a set of Secret Records of Talisman Armor is upwards of one hundred taels of gold, and it is priceless but not marketable. How could it be obtained so easily?

It's better to focus on the present, find a few charms to hide and disguise yourself, and put them on your daughter.

Ye Xuan was immersed in carving talismans when a knock on the door came from outside the courtyard.

His heart moved, and he immediately stood up and opened the door.

Cui Qingfeng stood at the entrance of the Taoist temple, looking at the two closed doors and feeling envious of Ye Xuan who lived inside.

Because he had barely reached the level of meat refining, he was able to take over his father's job as a detective.

However, although this profession may look hot to outsiders, it is actually of little benefit.

Not only did he have to face the shady faces of the county magistrates and arresting heads every day, but even the common people were secretly stabbing themselves in the back, and if something went wrong, they would be the ones who would immediately be pushed out to take the blame.

How can the Taoist abbot of a Taoist temple be so relaxed? He can open the temple when he wants and close the door when he doesn't want to. There is no one to restrain him. He has to take a nap every day, and the people around him have to wait on him respectfully.

It's a pity that I don't have enough talent.

Not to mention the big Baili sects like the Yinxian Sect, even the small sects like the Xiaochi Sect look down upon them, and they don’t have much savings at home, otherwise they could just imitate this Taoist Master of Partridge View and take a shortcut to add money...

While Cui Qingfeng was thinking, Ye Xuan opened the door of the Taoist temple, and a figure wearing a Taoist robe came into Cui Qingfeng's eyes.

A gust of breeze blew by, and Cui Qingfeng suddenly felt refreshed.

He glanced at Ye Xuan's brows, and for some reason, he always felt that the tranquil and comfortable mood on the other person became clearer and clearer, making people unable to feel bad about him.

The idea of ​​slandering Ye Xuan through the back door disappeared at this moment.

The two of them greeted each other, and Ye Xuan didn't know how Cui Qingfeng felt about him, so he still exchanged a few words with him, then invited him into the backyard and took a seat in the main room.

Before Ye Xuan served the tea, Cui Qingfeng glanced at the girl sleeping on the wicker chair - he had long heard that the abbot adopted a girl who luckily escaped from the evil god's sacrifice and her parents were killed or injured. Now it seems that it is not a lie.

This Taoist has a comfortable and comfortable temperament, a hidden Taoist charm, and a simple and kind-hearted nature. He is naturally free of ornaments. Is he really the dull disciple who took shortcuts as the rumors say?

Cui Qingfeng has absolutely no idea that Ye Xuan is no longer the Ye Xuan of yesterday.

Ye Xuan served the tea, asked the guests to taste it, and then started talking about business.

Although Cui Qingfeng took his father's position, he still had some ambitions in his heart. When he mentioned business matters, his words were concise and straight to the point: "That day, I originally agreed with the Taoist priest to come to make trouble at night. Unexpectedly, something suddenly happened at the county court, so we delayed

Come down."

Ye Xuan naturally knew what happened to the county court - the death of a police officer was considered a big deal in the county court.

He tilted his head slightly, signaling Cui Qingfeng to continue speaking.

"After that day, Capt. Zhou fell ill again for two or three days, and the investigation of the evil god has been delayed until now." Cui Qingfeng said apologetically, "Fortunately, Capt. Zhou has recovered now, and many clues about the evil god have been found during the investigation. I have been specially ordered to do so."

Come and invite the Taoist Master, and we will set off together to Yanghe Village in three days to investigate the matter of the evil god."

He speaks sincerely and does not speak slowly or hastily.

However, these words were shocking to Ye Xuan's ears!

What does Cui Qingfeng mean by these words?

Zhou Tiehu only suffered from an illness and did not die?

impossible!

I clearly saw him being torn apart by flying swords, and his body exploded into a ball of blood mist!

If he had not died, how could he have given me the token involving the River God Shuifu and let me get this advantage for nothing?

Unless——someone is impersonating Zhou Tiehu!

Thinking of Cui Qingfeng saying that Zhou Tiehu had to take two or three days off due to illness, Ye Xuan suddenly had a suspicion in his mind.

"Taoist, Taoist?" Cui Qingfeng saw that Ye Xuan was distracted, his face changed, and he seemed to be afraid and worried. He called him several times, and Ye Xuan finally came back to his senses.

Ye Xuan looked embarrassed: "I just thought about Chun Shen and lost my mind for a moment."

He would never tell his true feelings to Cui Qingfeng, who didn't know whether he was an enemy or a friend.

Cui Qingfeng comforted him with a few words, took out a few yellowed books from the bag behind his back, and handed them to Ye Xuan: "I carefully investigated the ceremony of summoning the Chun God, and found that it is a marriage ceremony in this county. After several

It evolved over hundreds of years.

So I borrowed a few books about the scenery of that time from scholars in the county and asked the Taoist priest to see if he could find any clues."

This agent is much more dedicated than his former boss Zhou Tiehu and his colleagues.

Ye Xuan applauded in his heart, took a few books, and said, "I will read them carefully and hope that I will live up to my trust."

Cui Qingfeng smiled and complimented a few words, and then told Ye Xuan the important ones about the clues about the Chun God they had investigated, as well as some of the testimonials from the villagers who had experienced the Chun God summoning ceremony.

The key information is that they have discovered the scope of Zhang Da's activities, which is in the Yanghe Village area, and that the so-called Chun God belief only appeared in recent years, and the person who spread this evil god belief is also Zhang Da!
