In wuyue, Jingchu, Bashu and other areas, fasting ceremonies are prevalent. If you eat for nine days, you don't kill them, which is commonly known as the "Nine Emperors' Zhai", hoping to get the protection of the Nine Emperors.
Jiuhuangzhai Festival is also very popular in Chinese-inhabited areas in Nanyang, but this festival is mixed with many versions of Han folklore. Nanyang is also popular with the ceremony of "sending the Nine Emperors Ship", building treasure ships and praying for the separation of the Nine Emperors from the plague and spectre. Just like the King Boat Festival, a folk belief of the Han nationality in Taiwan Province Province, Nanyang sent nine emperors' boats out of the sea or cremated them at the seaside.
