Chen Shi felt that both Uncle Hu and Uncle Qingyang were a little weird today, but he had no time to ask, so he quickly asked Granny Sha: "Grandma, did you go down and find my grandpa?"

He was inexplicably excited and looked at Granny Sha expectantly.

Granny Sha glanced at the five ghost kings, and the five ghost kings suddenly thought: "Have you done something wrong with good intentions? However, it is obvious that the dog has made a meritorious service. If the dog makes a meritorious service, we have made a meritorious service. Our jobs should be saved, right?"

They are anxious!

Fortunately, Grandma Sha didn't say anything and said with a smile: "I met your grandpa. He is fine. He also asked us if you have grown taller and if you have gained weight!"

Chen Shi was very happy: "I ate two more bowls of rice tonight. What else did grandpa say? Did he receive the paper money I burned for grandpa? Is it enough to spend? If it's not enough, I will burn it again. I also burned a building of paper

Has he received the house, the big sedan chair, and the eight paper figures? Does he lack company? How about I burn a few more old ladies made of paper for him? By the way. I think the old lady from Wuzhu looks like

I don’t have a few years left to live. Let grandpa wait for two more years and it will be over without burning..."

Granny Sha smiled and waited for him to talk for a long time before saying: "Okay, everything is okay, your grandfather has received it. This time we go to his Yuanchen Palace. The palace is luxurious and rich. You burned it for him. He

When you go out, you will be greeted by a large sedan chair. When you enter the palace, you will be served by maids and boys. It’s very comfortable!”

Legend has it that Yuanchen Palace is the place where the soul of a person lives, hidden in the underworld. After a person dies, the soul enters the underworld and lives in Yuanchen Palace.

Chen Shi has also heard of this rumor, but has never seen it.

He has only seen many ghosts of people who died in vain, not living in Yuanchen Palace, but walking confused in the mist.

There were many loopholes in Granny Sha's words, but she was concerned about grandpa and didn't think about it carefully.

Chen Shi then asked about his grandfather's diet and daily life. After all, Grandma Sha had been a goddess all year round, so she responded fluently.

Chen Shi did not doubt it. He felt relieved and said with a smile: "Grandpa is doing well, so I feel relieved. By the way, mother-in-law, you guys go to see grandpa. Is there anything you can do?"

Granny Sha glanced at the green sheep and found that its mouth was covered by the bearded man. She felt relieved and said with a smile: "Your grandfather and we are old friends. We just missed him this time and went to the underworld to visit. Unexpectedly, the underworld is too dangerous."

, almost didn’t make it back. Fortunately, Xiao Shi and Gouzi rescued us, otherwise the three of us would have been miserable. It’s getting dark, Xiao Shi, we have to go back too.”

She mobilized the five ghosts to move the altar, looked at Qingyang and the bearded man, and left in a hurry.

"Kaiguo, I always feel that Granny Sha has something she hasn't told us."

Chen Shi watched them leave and murmured.

Gouzi nodded solemnly and agreed.

"But, Black Pot, you saved Granny Sha and the others and did a great deed. I will buy you something delicious as a reward tomorrow."

Chen Shi smiled.

The dog was very excited and barked twice.

Granny Sha heard the dog barking in the distance and breathed a sigh of relief.

The big man with the beard let go of Qingyang. He was shocked and praised: "My mother-in-law must have reacted quickly, otherwise Qingyang will definitely make a big fuss. If their true identity is revealed, Chen Shi and Gouzi may have an attack on the spot and reveal their true colors."

He remembered the situation when the black pot entered the underworld and went on a killing spree in the mist to rescue them, and he still had lingering fears.

The evil spirits besieging them were extremely numerous and powerful, otherwise they would not have been hurt.

But these evil spirits are unable to resist the attack of the scapegoat.

Even the woman in white was almost bitten to death by the black pot.

Qingyang said: "Do you still remember when Old Chentou picked up this dog?"

Grandma Sha thought for a while and said: "Three years ago? I remember that Old Chen Tou said he would try again and go into the underworld to save Chen Shi. That was the ninth time he went to save Chen Shi, but failed. I heard he was even injured.

He was seriously injured and lay there for three months. When we met him again, there was a little black dog beside him."

Qingyang and the bearded man looked at each other.

"Could this little black dog be brought out from the underworld by him?"

The big man with the beard asked: "I heard that ghosts and gods can transform into other creatures. My mother-in-law is well-informed and is most familiar with the underworld. Can you tell what it is transformed into?"

Granny Sha shook her head and said, "You can't tell. It's no different from a normal dog."

The three of them stared at each other.

Granny Sha sighed and said: "Old Chen went to the underworld to be happy, but he left the mess to us. You two, you go to rest and heal first, there will be more toil in the future!"

Qingyang muttered: "It's so hard, I might as well just become Xiao Shi's godmother."

Granny Sha and the big man with the beard looked pale as they shook their heads and said, "If you don't become a godmother, you still have a way to live. If you become a godmother, you won't have any chance at all."

The three of them dispersed.

…

He will take the county examination in four days. Chen Shi does not dare to neglect these four days.

Every morning I went to Zhu Xiucai's lectures.

Zhu Xiucai also taught very seriously.

"Xiao Shi, you don't have to worry. You've got my true inheritance, and you will definitely go to high school."

Seeing that he was a little nervous, Zhu Xiucai comforted him: "Your and my talents will surely shock Xiniu Xinzhou and become a new star in the literary world."

Chen Shi was a little relieved and said: "I don't dare to ask for the top prize. I only hope to be a candidate and shine on my family."

"Bao Zhong, Bao Zhong!"

Chen Shi went to the Tiger Temple a few more times. The front hall was still being repaired, and the images of the gods in the shrines in the main hall were getting clearer and clearer.

He looked carefully and saw that it seemed to have the head of a bull, but it also had the appearance of a human body.

The strange thing is that there is a tiger lying at the feet of the god.

The formation of the divine form was extremely slow, and he couldn't feel any fluctuations in the divine form's thoughts, which was very strange.

Generally speaking, the reason for the formation of the divine appearance is that the spirit being sacrificed has self-awareness and thinks that what it should look like is what the divine appearance will look like.

For example, the godmother of Huangyang Village is a bronze statue of gods and demons. After being worshiped by the villagers for a long time, she became self-aware and thought that she should be a fat man, so her appearance was that of a fat man who eats all kinds of things.

The godmother of Huangpo Village is an old tree and thinks that she should be a girl in her mid-twenties.

So her appearance is that of a dignified and delicate girl.

"The gods must be conscious, but the gods in the Tiger Temple are not conscious. This means that the tiger is still alive..."

Chen Shi took a deep look at the divine image in the shrine and thought to himself: "The tiger should be in the ancestral land, China. Therefore, there is no need to be aware of the formation of his appearance. However, why is the tiger in Qianyang Mountain not in Xiniu Xinzhou, but in the ancestral land?" land?"

He suddenly realized: "Back then, when Sanbao eunuchs led the Ming Dynasty soldiers to this strange land, they saw that the place was full of evil spirits. The first thing they did was definitely not to create gods, but to offer sacrifices to the Chinese gods they brought on their ships. Let the Chinese gods come in their avatars through the statues. In other words, Qianyang Tiger should be the mountain god of a certain mountain in the Chinese state."

He was a little confused again.

This place must have been very prosperous back then, but why did it decline and even the statues of gods disappeared?

"When the tiger god forms, you will know the whole story."

He left the Tiger Temple, went to the county town, and came to Wencai Academy.

In these days of preparing for the exam, Chen Shi is not worried about his literary test, but he is a little worried about his martial arts test.

So I decided to ask my classmates for advice.

There are only a few students in the academy, and many of them do not come to school.

Chen Shi was surprised to see only a few people gathered together, whispering to each other, wondering what they were discussing?

Hu Feifei was among them. She caught a glimpse of him coming and hurriedly waved: "Brother Chen, come quickly, come quickly."

Chen Shi came closer. The students, three men and two women, looked about the same age as him. The oldest was only fourteen or fifteen years old, and the youngest was about ten years old. They were all neatly dressed and wearing black hats.

"There are no classes today?"

Chen Shi asked.

"Classes haven't started yet. Something happened in the city. Mr. Fu asked us to go home and not come to the academy for the next two days!"

Hu Feifei said mysteriously: "The day before yesterday, yesterday, a dozen students disappeared in the city, and the government could not find them. They said that evil spirits came into the city and captured and ate them. So Mr. Fu did not dare to start classes. We I don’t believe that evil spirits are entering the city. If evil spirits are entering the city, why do they specifically arrest students and not others?”

Several students nodded repeatedly.

One of the students said: "So, we plan to catch this evil spirit."

Chen Shi looked at this childish face in surprise, wondering?

Are all the students in the city so brave?

"Have you cultivated into a divine fetus?"

Chen Shi asked.

The student looked childish and shook his head.

Chen Shi looked at the others and said, "Which of you has cultivated into a divine fetus?"

Everyone shook their heads together, except Hu Feifei who smiled without shaking her head or nodding.

The student who was about ten years old said: "Chen Shi, you are from the countryside. Let's search Miaowei Bookstore tangsanbooks.com to see the full version. The students in the city learn different things from you students in the countryside. Although we

We have only built a shrine, not a divine fetus, but we can use the energy of the shrine to activate spells, so we are very powerful."

A girl said: "Yes. Shen Yusheng is the most powerful. He can condense his sword energy every time, but I can't."
