Uncle Ma said that Emperor Dongyue was here, but I really couldn't understand it, and I didn't see any gods descending to earth. I just felt that there was obviously a strong power on this chair.
However, Emperor Dongyue wouldn't come in person to clean up such a small evil, right?
I was full of questions, but at this time, the little cousin struggled more and more fiercely. We also closed our mouths together and used our strength to hold her down!
The chair was spinning around on the little cousin's head. This scene looked unsightly. At the same time, the little cousin was screaming like a slaughtered pig. I couldn't bear it for a while.
Ma Yunfeng was so mean, while holding down his little cousin, he also had his hands free to wipe her sweat.
"Don't be afraid. I'm going to exorcise you now. You'll be fine in a while..."
As a result, I couldn't hold back and almost got bitten by my little cousin again.
The eldest brother was not idle at this time. He took a sword from the altar next to him and made a lot of gestures. Then he asked the two people to move their chairs away, and he directly pressed the sword on it. On the little cousin's head.
At the same time, he was also mumbling, and it looked like he was praying to gods and exerting power.
To be honest, I really can’t understand these things, and I can’t understand what they said at all. The whole process was confusing.
I thought to myself, they just said they would invite Emperor Dongyue, how did they invite him?
Just the whole chair, the whole sword, are you inviting Emperor Dongyue?
Of course, it's my problem that I can't understand. The senior brother's operation was not a blind gesture, because as the sword pressed on the little cousin's face, he saw the little cousin whine, and then his body Slowly he softened and kept sliding under the chair.
In just three to five minutes, the little cousin became much more honest, her screams became lower, and her body began to tremble.
The elder brother put away his sword, brought another bowl of water, and sprayed it directly on the little cousin's face.
At this moment, the little cousin trembled, and then slowly woke up.
I saw her opening her eyes and looking at us. Her eyes were obviously much normal, but her body was limp and her strength was probably exhausted.
Next, we thanked Brother Xiong, but he didn’t take it seriously, saying it was a common little thing and nothing important. Then we let the little cousin rest for a while and gave her water to drink.
In short, after more than ten minutes, the little cousin finally woke up completely, and then we told her everything that had just happened.
The little cousin was very surprised, and then cried and thanked Brother Ah Xiong. Then the elder brother asked her why she was possessed by the evil spirit, but the little cousin looked confused and said that she had no idea why.
She said that she just entered a temple with us and didn't worship any gods, so she just walked around casually. But when she left the temple, she seemed to see a god in red robes, hurriedly walking in from outside. It hit her.
She thought she was hallucinating at the time and didn't think much about it, but things got worse and worse. When she looked at a few of us, she almost couldn't recognize who we were, and she couldn't control her consciousness at all.
When she said these words, she was still very weak, and it gave me the feeling that the red-robed monster had not left, but was just hiding.
But Uncle Ma is right, we are just tourists here, so just keep your eyes peeled.
Let's see how Senior Brother and the others deal with it!
The little cousin recovered a little at this time, so she got up and knelt down in front of the statue of Emperor Dongyue.
The senior brother looked at her, still a little worried, but didn't say much. After thanking Brother Ah Xiong, he took us back the way we came.
After struggling all night, it was already past ten o'clock. The elder brother first sent the little cousin back and then took us back to the hotel.
As soon as we entered the room, the senior brother sat down and drank a bottle of mineral water, and then told us that he wanted to go to the temple again tomorrow.
I knew he was talking about the temple where my little cousin was possessed.
Uncle Ma also nodded and said it was time to go, because the thing hadn't left at all, it was just temporarily hidden, and he might have to worry about it tomorrow.
I finally couldn't help it anymore and asked: "Uncle Ma, how can you still be possessed by evil spirits in this temple? And I saw that thing. It didn't feel like a ghost. It was also wearing a red robe." Woolen cloth."
Uncle Ma smiled slightly: "This is normal. In fact, sometimes you don't even know what the gods are worshiped in the temple here, because they not only worship gods, but also ghosts."
Seeing our confused faces, the senior brother also explained: "Actually, according to the customs here, many so-called gods are ghosts, but they are not ordinary ghosts. Some are prestigious ancestors in the family, and some are locals. There are famous local sages and some ancient people who have great merits for the people. After their death, they have become the guardian gods of a party. So in a strict sense, these are not real gods, but because of the incense offered to them, they have He has won people's respect and worship, so he can also be said to be a god."
He paused and then said: "Just like the temple you went to tonight, there are Tu Tu Gong, the Holy King of Kai Zhang, and local princes. Some of them I don't even know what they are."
I didn’t know what the Holy King of Kai Zhang he was talking about, so the senior brother briefly introduced this story to us.
The name of this holy king of Zhangzhou was Chen Yuanguang. He came from a family of generals in the Tang Dynasty. He followed his father to guard southern Fujian since he was a child. He was the first governor in the history of Zhangzhou.
At that time, Zhangzhou had not yet established any prefectures and counties and was a barren land. After Chen Yuanguang took office, he implemented a series of policies and slowly turned the original wasteland into a paradise where all industries flourished.
Later, rogue bandits broke out in the Chaozhou area. Chen Yuanguang led his army to fight against the bandits and died in battle. People in subsequent dynasties appreciated his contribution to opening Zhangzhou and praised him one after another. During the Qianlong period, Chen Yuanguang was posthumously crowned the Holy King of Zhangzhou.
Therefore, this holy king is enshrined in temples in many places in Zhangzhou, and in some places his subordinates are enshrined in side halls.
There was also Emperor Baosheng, also known as Dagong. He was a miraculous doctor during his lifetime. He was known as Wu Zhenren among the people. He saved lives and healed the wounded. He had noble medical ethics. After his death, he was posthumously named Daozhen Daozhen and Emperor Baosheng by the court. He also had a very high status in Fujian. In Chaoshan in southern Fujian, Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan, and Southeast Asia, it is said that there are thousands of temples with nearly 100 million believers.
So if you look at it, it is feudal superstition that people say that they worship gods. But these gods are really like what I said. They all performed great merits for the country and the people during their lifetime. It is only natural for them to be able to confer gods. For future generations, It is also natural to offer worship and reverence.
We should never forget these gods. Not only should we offer sacrifices to them, but we should also learn to pass on their spiritual qualities.
I have always believed that this is the real traditional culture. We must understand what is correct and positive about these things passed down from ancient times, and then we can truly take the essence and discard the dross, rather than criticizing any supply. God's behavior is a blow, and it cannot be classified as feudal superstition. It is a forgetfulness of history, and it is also a forgetfulness of our ancestors.
The senior brother gave us a brief talk about the Holy King of Kaizhang and some of the beliefs of the people here. We listened with rapt attention, and at the same time we made a plan of action for tomorrow.
We are going to the temple again tonight to find out the reason why the little cousin was possessed by the evil spirit!
