Jia Gui is the magistrate of Xihe County in the imperial court, but Xihe County is just a small area at the foot of the mountain and outside Yunbi Mountain.

There are hundreds of large and small villages deep in the Yunbi Mountains. Since ancient times, these people have formed their own system and are not subject to the constraints of the imperial court, nor do they pay tribute to the imperial court. They nominally belong to the imperial court, but the mountain people have never recognized it.

What these mountain people believe in, and what they rely on to rule them.

That's witchcraft.

"It's troublesome!"

As soon as Jia Gui knew the origins of these people, he felt that they were in great trouble. If he didn't deal with them properly, he might be in trouble soon.

And at the same time, Jia Gui also discovered a problem.

Yun Zhongjun’s magical witch?

This is not the name of a single witch, but a title with a given name and surname, pointing directly to the core.

It's not some other god, it just happens to be the shaman who belongs to Yun Zhongjun.

And this also made Jia Gui feel something.

After working on it for a long time, maybe the gods he met had nothing to do with Yunzhen Taoism. He wanted to find a group of "professionals" to help him welcome the gods, but ended up burning the wrong incense and worshiping at the wrong temple door.

Jia Gui turned his head and looked at the Taoists of Yunzhen Taoism.

The other party never mentioned this situation to him at all from the beginning.

"Stop, stop everyone."

Jia Gui stopped the ceremony to welcome the gods, and then walked down the mountain. He wanted to see the shaman.

Jia Gui came to the foot of the mountain in a hurry, but the shaman did not get off the chariot. The person who greeted and talked to Jia Gui was a man who was a shaman.

Jia Gui knew it and asked: "You are here because of something. As the magistrate of Xihe County sent by the imperial court, Jia Gui can speak directly to Jia."

The sacrificial witch stood in front of the sacred chariot and bowed slightly: "Your Majesty Jia County, Yunbi is a sacred object that our clan has enshrined and sacrificed for generations. Yun Zhongjun is also the god we worship, so you are here today.

I want to enshrine my clan’s sacred objects and at the same time sacrifice to the god.”

Then the sacrificial witch raised his head, first looking at the mountainside, and then at Jia Gui, with some anger in his eyes.

"I just don't know, what is Mr. Jia Xian doing?"

"You are also someone who has been lucky enough to see the gods. How could you lead a bunch of filthy people to make noise in front of the cloud wall and disturb the peace of the gods."

Jia Gui froze on the spot. He was not afraid of the mountain people, the sacrificial witches and the so-called divine witches. No matter what, he still represented the court.

He was just worried that he seemed to have done something wrong and that it would cause dissatisfaction from the gods.

And thinking that she originally wanted to show her face in front of the gods, but ended up exposing her buttocks, Jia Gui felt even more ashamed and didn't know what to say.

"this……"

At this time, Taoist Danhe from Yunzhen Taoism also chased down.

The Yin Yang Taoist had just entered the bamboo forest with the divine chariot, and was about to arrive in front of the cloud wall. At this time, the ceremony to welcome the gods was stopped by Jia Gui, which made all the Taoists of the Yun Zhen Taoist not anxious.

"County Lord!"

"Why did you stop suddenly? You can't stop at this moment!"

Taoist Danhe was very anxious and said to Jia Gui when he came up.

"This time is divined by the Taoist master himself. If the time is missed, there will be big problems."

When Jia Gui heard what Taoist Danhe said, he felt a little dissatisfied in his heart, but he didn't say it out loud.

At this time, the sacrificial witch under the chariot stepped forward and angrily scolded Taoist Danhe.

"Welcoming God?"

"Where did you come from? You don't even have the right song to welcome the gods, you don't have the witch to perform the ritual dance, and you don't even have the right sacrifices."

"Welcoming God must begin in the silent night, at the moment when the moonlight appears. How can it be done at this time?"

"Are you seeking death by offering sacrifices to the gods without knowing anything?"

"Where did you find this method of worshiping the gods? How dare you do it in front of the Lord of God? Are you not afraid that Lord Yun Zhong will rain down thunder and kill you all?"

This was still in front of Jia Gui. If it weren't for the imperial magistrate and the person who had seen the gods before him, the sacrificial witch would probably have issued an order to let the mountain people and Yun Zhendao fight to the death.

Taoist Danhe hesitated and couldn't answer.

Of course he couldn't say that this ceremony was pieced together by three of his brothers after rummaging through the scriptures for a long time.

Jia Gui didn't understand the situation before, and didn't have a deep understanding of Wu Jin and Taoist sects, but seeing Taoist Danhe's appearance, he now understood a little bit.

"Sure enough, this is not your fairy!"

After a long time of turmoil, someone else may be the real owner.

Jia Gui's attitude immediately changed subtly, and he was a little angry, but for a while Jia Gui couldn't completely tell who could usher in the real god.

Yunzhen Tao may not be able to do it, but can these mountain people Wu Jin from the depths of Yunbi Mountain do it?

He had already made a mistake once and made a fool of himself in front of the gods once, but he couldn't bear it again.

"Then let's set it at night and hold the ceremony to welcome the gods when the moon rises."

"Whoever can get the response from the gods will be responsible for welcoming the gods into the world, and who will be in charge of Yunzhongjun's shrine from now on."

Jia Gui waved his hand and turned to leave.

The priest looked at Taoist Danhe with all his might. Although Taoist Danhe felt a little guilty, he still stood proudly, never losing the battle.

Although the dispute was temporarily settled, it was not over yet.

——

Jiang Chao stood in front of a cave on the mountain, looking through the forest to the foot of the mountain. From this place, he could see the various changes under the mountain.

Occasionally, birds will pop out of the woods below and make clear bird calls.

Wangshu: "It's begun."

The radio close to my ear could hear voices from down the mountain, sometimes near and sometimes far away.

I couldn't find the focus at first. Occasionally there was the sound of gongs and drums, occasionally there were shouts with strange accents, and occasionally there were the shouts of onlookers and the chase of children.

But in the end, he stopped at the foot of the mountain beside the mountain folk Wu Jin, the county magistrate, and Taoist Yunzhen, and the words of the three parties were also passed on to Jiang Chao's ears.

Wang Shu: "They seem to be fighting for you."

There was a hint of laughter in Wang Shu's voice. He didn't know whether he was teasing Jiang Chao or laughing at the three parties at the foot of the mountain.

Jiang Chao: "They are fighting for Yun Zhongjun."

Wang Shu: "You are Yunzhongjun now. Anyway, there is no real Yunzhongjun in this world."

Jiang Chao: "Tell me, what will happen if they know that I am not the real Yun Zhongjun?"

Wang Shu: "It won't be a big deal."

Jiang Chao looked at the radio as if looking at Wang Shu on the other side.

"Why?"

At this time, an answer came from the radio.

"Because they don't care who Yun Zhongjun is, as long as you can give them what Yun Zhongjun can give them, and even more."

"In their eyes, you are the unshakable Yunzhongjun."

Jiang Chao was stunned and said.

"You seem to understand people more and more."

"However, you are only talking about some people. People are different from each other, and the human heart is not that simple. It is the most complex thing in the world."

Jiang Chao did not expect that in the middle of the lively and lively Spring Festival celebrations and the welcoming ceremony, something like this would happen.

He came to see the excitement, but it turned out to be even more lively.

However, the villagers at the foot of the mountain didn't mind watching the fun one by one. When they heard that the mountain villagers' shamans and Yunzhen Taoist priests were arguing, they became even more happy and excited.

Even after hearing about the dispute, more people were rushing towards this direction.

The huge crowd at the foot of the mountain not only did not disperse, but grew in number, each finding a seat to watch the show.

Even if you can't go up the mountain, let alone see with your own eyes how to greet God, you can't even hear a sound.

But everyone still flocked to it, even if they could witness the excitement from a distance. There had never been such a lively thing in the county or the countryside, and even many people in the countryside had never seen such a scene in their lives.

"Are you going to fight?"

"A fight started?"

"Is anyone dead?"

"How many died?"

"It's not a battle of skills or a fight. It's just to see who can bring down the gods."

"We really want to invite the gods to come down. This is a big deal!"

Villagers and farmers were running around occupying high places. Young scholars sat in groups under the trees and chatted about the past and present. There were also people with their families riding bullock carts parked by the roadside, wanting to enjoy the immortal spirit.

.

Everyone was very excited, waiting for the night to fall.
