"Sir, there is one more thing?"

"One more thing." Song You elaborated, "After the chaos in the north, demons and ghosts often appeared. During the few days at the grassland meeting with Sanhua Empress, we heard a lot about little demons and little ghosts disturbing people. And that

The ghost generals who led the rebellion in Yuan'an City have left, and most of the ones left are the heroic souls who sacrificed their lives for the country. Although they became ghosts not long ago, they are also quite capable. Ghosts are lonely, so I will ask them to help patrol the grassland. If you encounter some

The little demons and ghosts who were intruding the people came to help and told them that maybe one day, the local people would be grateful for their virtues and merits, and they might come to offer incense to them. If there were more people offering incense, they might be able to get rid of their ghosts with the help of incense.

The body of a wild ghost becomes a ghost like a city god or a military attaché."

"this……"

The young official wanted to ask again, "Is this true?" but he took it back before he could say it.

After thinking about it for a long time, I had no choice but to give it up.

"Sir, you have a good trick. You not only find things for them to do, prevent them from continuing to cause chaos, but also enable them to benefit the people. Han admires them." The young official took a deep breath, "To be honest, there have been demons and ghosts in Yanzhou in recent years.

There are indeed too many. Big demons and ghosts are not bad, but they have their own thunder and lightning. Small demons and ghosts are the most difficult to deal with, and they cannot be eliminated at all. New ones appear every year. Han has been having a headache for a long time. This move of sir, if the city

The heroic soul can really benefit the people of a place, let alone the people, even Han is willing to offer incense for them."

"That's exactly what I'm going to say next."

"oh?"

"I'm not lying to them. They are soldiers who protect their home and country. If they don't do it, that's fine. If they do, Mr. Han is an official of the imperial court. Please don't be stingy and set up a spiritual tablet for them.

"It doesn't matter if you pick up a piece of clay and cast a few statues." Song You said and handed over his hand, "In this way, if there are any ghosts nearby, Mr. Han and the local people can also go to them. If it works, there will be more incense and it will not be abandoned."

That’s it, there’s nothing to lose.”

"..."

The young official was stunned for a moment after hearing this.

For a moment, inexplicably, I felt like I had participated in the process of the gods' achievement, or that I had participated in the creation of a myth and legend.

Just like the stories and legends of the local gods that I heard elsewhere when I was not an official here, people like to talk about how those gods are efficacious and what kind of stories they have. If it is the same here now, many years later this

Legends of these ghost gods and earth gods are also spread throughout this land, but how many future generations can think of themselves as being related to them?

"Mr. Benyi!"

The young official bowed his head and exhaled.

"Thank you, sir."

"Thank you sir!"

Song You smiled, said goodbye to him, and took Sanhua Empress back to the outside of the bonfire and sat down again.

The young officials also returned to their original positions.

At this time, my mood was still hard to calm down, my chest kept rising and falling, and I would glance at the Taoist priest in the distance from time to time.

Lin Chang was also curious in his heart. He glanced at the young official from time to time and was keenly aware of the changes in the young official. From time to time, he followed his gaze and quietly glanced at the Taoist next to him, as if thinking about what the Taoist and the official had talked about before they left.

, I don’t know if he guessed anything, but he didn’t ask anything after one night.

Slowly, the night gradually deepened.

Lin Le, who went in to play, also came back.

The Taoist turned to them and said, "It's getting late. We still have to go to the hillside over there, so we'll take a step first."

Lin Chang then asked: "Sir, are you also spending the night on the mountain over there tonight?"

"yes."

"It's cold in the mountains, why don't you rest in our tent for the night?"

"Thank you for your kindness. It's just that the moonlight and stars are very bright on the mountain, and you can overlook the camp. Sometimes there are lights in the tent, and they look like stars in the sky." Song You said to him with a smile, "And we have to catch some hares at night and go down there tomorrow.

Come to sell, I will have to walk a long way to the north in the future, so as to make more money."

"That's right!" The little girl beside her also nodded, "We want to catch rabbits!"

"Oh? Sir, you still catch rabbits?" Lin Chang said blankly.

"How do you catch rabbits?" Lin Le also asked curiously.

"There is a wonderful way." The Taoist smiled.

"There is a wonderful way!" the little girl learned to say.

"Okay then." Lin Chang didn't try to persuade him, he just stood up and held hands with him, "Let Lin Le escort Mr. out of the camp."

"Good work."

Song You also surrendered to him.

"Thank you!"

The little girl's movements are exactly the same.

"Let's go."

Lin Le is really a lively young man, with a liveliness that most boys and girls these days don't have. He walked in front with a smile, leading the Taoist and the little girl out of the camp.

In comparison, his sister is much shy.

True to his youthful spirit, he saw Sanhua Empress’ magic performance that night, and couldn’t wait to brag about it to her brothers and sisters when she got back. Her sister didn’t believe it, so she brought her over to see it with her own eyes.

In fact, Sanhua Empress is not a cat that listens to other people's words. She does not do whatever others ask her to do. However, she was once a cat god. Now mortals sincerely plead for her.

The spell was simply impossible for her to refuse.

So with a serious expression, he took the lantern from the horse's back with his feet on his feet, lifted it high and blew a breath.

"call……"

The lantern lit up.

"Wow!"

The boy and his sister were both surprised.

But the difference is that the young man's face is a little more joyful, his eyes are narrowed with a smile, and he is a little satisfied, while the girl's eyes are much rounder than his, and she is purely surprised when they see her for the first time.

Sanhua Empress secretly looked at this girl.

The girl and the boy are equally dark.

It was a small one, not much taller than her.

Xu came to participate in the grassland party, so she put on her best clothes. Even her shoes were carefully embroidered with a flower by her ingenious mother.

The Sanhua Empress held a lantern, lowered her head, and stared at the flower on the girl's shoes.

The lantern just illuminated the girl's shoes.

Sanhua Empress looked up at the girl again, then lowered her head and looked at her shoes.

Small, delicate, and very clean.

Her toes moved a few times in the shoes, causing the fabric to move. No one noticed that, silently, a flower appeared on her little shoes.

The little girl was already in a good mood, but suddenly she felt better again.

It's just that no one can notice it.

"Then let's go back."

"Thank you both for sending me off."

"Thank you, sir! Will you come down to watch the festival tomorrow?"

"You can see better on the mountain."

"oh……"

"Farewell."

Song You smiled slightly and said goodbye to them.

Empress Sanhua still learned from him.

"Let's go, Empress Sanhua."

"Let's go, Taoist priest."

"Miss Sanhua is very happy."

"Miss Sanhua is very happy."

The little girl could be seen walking briskly, holding a lantern and walking in front. With every step she took, her toes seemed to tiptoe.

The Taoist shook his head and smiled.

…

Early the next morning, the white clouds were low and about to fall.

Empress Sanhua, who had been busy all night, lay down in the grass and slept soundly. Next to her, there was a neat row of hares arranged from big to small. Not only were their heads and tails in the same direction, but they were also facing in the same direction.
