002: ancestor worship
Gu Changsheng stroked his forehead with one hand, feeling dizzy and dizzy.
What exactly is going on?
He couldn't quite figure it out, but the fact that he should be a modern person should not be disputed. After all, this aspect of his memory was the most vivid.

But in this case, could what he saw and heard just now be just a dream?
That's a little too clear.
Gu Changsheng touched his left chest with some fear. The strong skin on it now made him feel more at ease.
"Brother Gu, Brother Gu!"
Suddenly there was a familiar sound outside, causing him to turn his head and look away.
I saw two figures suddenly appear on the dirt road in the countryside. One of them was tall and thin, the other short and fat. Now they were running towards Gu Changsheng with a smile on their face.
"Brother Gu, why are you still asleep? Didn't we all agree yesterday that we were going to see Uncle Yang and the others preparing to worship their ancestors?"
"Yes, Brother Gu, it's already three o'clock in the morning, why are you still asleep? I'm afraid you went to steal a girl last night..."
The two of them laughed out loud, but Gu Changsheng, who was sitting upright on the bed, was slightly dazed.
"Three fat men, Li Zhu..."
Gu Changsheng murmured the names of the two younger ones, but now looking at their faces, he couldn't connect with the two people in the dream.
Could it be that...the things I thought about before were really just a nightmare?
At the same time that Gu Changsheng was thinking like this, he seemed to remember something and asked aloud.
"Three Fatties, what did you just say? Are you going to see Uncle Yang to prepare for ancestor worship?"
"That's right, Brother Gu, did you fall asleep in the lake? Didn't the two of us already discuss this matter yesterday?"
Worship ancestors...?
Worship ancestors!!!
Gu Changsheng will never forget the strange noises he heard last night!
"Master Black laughs, Master Bai cries. The Zhongyuan has arrived, and the door of hell is wide open..."
"In July and a half, thank you for the land."
"Sacrifice to the ancestors and worship the souls of the dead."
"Master Yin will eat meat when he comes out of the cave..."
When is it necessary to worship ancestors? It has to be the Hungry Ghost Festival in the traditional sense, which falls on July 15th!
Now that Uncle Yang is about to start preparing things...
Doesn’t that mean that Zhongyuan is almost here?!
He repeated the words he heard last night in detail, and his eyes couldn't stop trembling.
Gu Changsheng raised his head abruptly, and then asked loudly to the two hair boys outside the window.
"What day is it today!"
Seeing Gu Changsheng who suddenly became irritable and started shouting loudly, San Pang and Li Zhu were stunned for a moment, and then opened their mouths to reply.
"July 13."
"Today is thirteen."
There are only two full days left before the Hungry Ghost Festival!
After hearing this, Gu Changsheng didn't even care about changing clothes, and immediately stood up from the bed.
He walked around the room with his bare feet, his eyes trembling slightly.
"There are only two days left. Does that mean what I see is the future?"
After two days, his heart will be dug out and carried by these two boys to be buried.
By then, the three fat men will go crazy, Li Zhu will be eaten by Master Yin, and the entire Xiawuyuan Village will be completely destroyed?!
"Is this a dream? Why is it so real? I, what on earth did I see..."
As if he remembered something, Gu Changsheng suddenly turned around and opened his mouth to the two people who were chatting outside the window.
"You two, do you know what Master Yin is?"
Master Yin.
If nothing else, this thing is the monster that broke his neck last night!
Gu Changsheng himself had no memory of this, so it would not be a problem to ask San Pang and others now. When the latter heard this, they looked at each other for a moment before speaking out.
"Master Yin, of course you know. Isn't that the Earth Immortal that Uncle Yang talks about? Isn't it, Li Zhu?"
"Yes, I've heard it too. Uncle Yang also said that when you worship your ancestors, you not only worship your ancestors, you also have to say hello to Master Yin, so that you can live a peaceful life in the second half of the year."
"I once heard that there were villages that worshiped their ancestors but did not worship Lord Yin. No matter how they cultivated the land behind them, they could not fertilize it and it was left in ruins."
Upon hearing this, Gu Changsheng realized that the two parties did not seem to be on the same channel.
The stories Sanpang and Li Zhu talked about were just silly rumors, just like gossip to scare a child to sleep. But what he saw was a serious monster!
I can't guarantee that Master Yin has any connection with the living dead.
In order to make sure that there was indeed nothing missing in the memory in his heart, Gu Changsheng asked some more questions, and finally understood it completely.
This is indeed a simple farming social background.
People respect heaven, earth, ghosts and gods, and believe in the principle that all ministers should be close to the people. The current world is still relatively peaceful, but the Orange State where he lives is quite remote.
It is separated from the capital city of the prosperous Tang Dynasty by a whole black sea.
Xiawuyuan Village is an even more remote place with no clear landmark on the map.
If you really want to make a calculation... perhaps it is more appropriate to describe this place as 'the land of alienation'.
The scribbled background information was roughly sorted out at this moment. Gu Changsheng understood clearly, and his expression showed a bit of thinking.
Nowadays, it seems that there is no useful information that can be extracted from the ‘locals’.
After all, the three fat men don't even know what Master Yin is.
Not to mention the lack of heart, being possessed by evil spirits, and the living dead.
"But these things should all be connected, otherwise why would I dream of so many things at once?"
While he was talking to himself, Gu Changsheng saw two people outside whispering to each other for a while, and then heard some small sounds.
"Brother Gu fell on his head some time ago, so he probably can't remember anything..."
"Just say whatever you ask. As brothers, you can't tease him like this..."
When Gu Changsheng heard this, he raised his hand and touched his head, and then found that there was indeed a large lump on the back of his head.
If they bump into each other suddenly, it will make his brain hurt!
Is this the reason for his memory loss? Why is Gu Changsheng still such an unlucky guy...
He shook his head gently and put these random thoughts behind him for the time being.
"Okay, you guys wait for me outside. I'll change my clothes and then go out with you."
No matter what, this ancestor worship is one of the few clues that he can investigate clearly at the moment. Gu Changsheng has figured this out, so naturally he will not miss it.
Taking off the swollen shorts on his body, Gu Changsheng rushed into the yard and poured the freshly scooped well water over his head, giving himself a good refreshment.
It is now around mid-July, the sun is shining brightly, and there are many shirtless people working outside.
After taking a shower, Gu Changsheng changed into short clothes and rushed out in a hurry.
