After settling the matter in Shangsi County, Chen Jinngle went south and entered Fangcheng District.
The area of Fangcheng District is only slightly smaller than that of Shangsi, but because the shape of the map semi-encloses Dongxin County in the south, it looks larger.
Although it is a district, the urbanization rate is actually no different from other counties. In addition, it is located in the Shiwanda Mountains, and many villages are located in the mountains.
But it’s just convenient for Chen Jingle.
The more villages there are, the more community temples there are, and the stronger he is.
As for Dongxin County, Chen Jingle only went to the border line to have a look, and then bought some interesting wooden handicrafts before leaving.
Now is not the busiest time in Dongxin.
Smuggling was rampant here in the past. After several severe crackdowns, many people left. In addition to the sluggish tourism industry in recent years, even more people left.
It looks a little deserted at this time.
Because there were too many things on hand, Chen Jingle was not interested in going to the other side to see the scenery for the time being.
After capturing the entire city, which way to go next is another question.
After much hesitation, Chen Jingle decided to go back.
Go to Yulin!
The main reason is that Yulin is the second most populous city in Guangzhou, but its urbanization rate and economic development are at the bottom. This means that there are many temples in Yulin's countryside.
Taking Yulin was better than several small state capitals.
The combined population of Anzhou Fangcheng and Zhucheng is equivalent to one Yulin.
Furthermore, Yulin is closer to Guangnan in terms of language, customs and other cultural aspects on the border of Guangnan.
Let’s talk about a more joyful digression.
Chen Jingle lives in Orange County, which belongs to Chuchuan Prefecture. However, when he was watching TV when he was a child, when he turned the antenna mast manually, the clearest signals he received were from Yulin TV Station, Baizhou County, Tongzhou County, etc. under the jurisdiction of Yulin. TV station.
However, none of the local TV stations such as Chuchuan and Chengxian could be found!
Especially in Tongzhou, there were more abortion advertisements than TV dramas, which really left a deep impression on the young Chen Jingle. It was comparable to the Urology and Andrology Department of Orange County Second People's Hospital.
In this regard, Chen Jingle is indeed more familiar and friendly with Yu Lin. (cross out)
…
Yulin governs two districts, four counties and one city, and is most famous for its dog meat.
The news about the Dog Meat Festival back then made a lot of noise.
But the people of Yulin don't care at all.
What’s more surprising is that the second most populous city in Guangzhou is actually the only state capital in the province without high-speed rail.
Well, well, it's actually already under construction, otherwise the people of Yulin would really be clamoring that "we must break away from GuangC."
Chen Jinngle came from Fangcheng Anzhou in the west, so he first entered Baizhou County.
When he entered Baizhou, the Civil Affairs Department of Yulin Mansion quickly discovered it. At the same time, Yongcheng also received the news.
Now the whole province has received the news and is watching nervously.
"You can really run."
Yang Yuan, director of the Yongcheng branch, couldn't help but scratch his head when he heard the report.
I originally thought that the other party would go towards Jiangzhou along Shangsi County, but I didn't expect to turn around and go to Yulin.
"Okay, Yu Lin is pretty good too."
There are many people in Yulin Mansion. Although they can now invite Yin soldiers to help, the pressure on the local bureau is still quite high.
If that god was willing to take a trip, he would probably be at peace.
…
Baizhou.
Compared with the neighboring Orange County, Baizhou has a slightly larger population and a larger area, with thousands more square kilometers and a full 28 towns under its jurisdiction. However, the economy is only half that of Orange County, which can be said to be relatively poor.
The city with the largest number of Hakka people in the world is Jiaying Prefecture in Guangnan;
But the county with the largest number of Hakkas in the world is Baizhou County in Guangzhou.
The city has a population of 1.9 million, of which 1.5 million are Hakka. Therefore, Hakka is the mainstream local language and is not much different from the Hakka language in northern Orange County.
In terms of belief, along the way, Chen Jinngle found that folk gods were still the main focus.
The likes of Guan Sheng, God of Wealth, Jade Emperor, Dragon Mother, and City God are more common, while Buddhist Ksitigarbha is more popular.
The most widespread one is still the land communal system, which exists in every village.
And just like Chanchuan Prefecture, during the New Year in Hakushu there are folk activities such as the wandering gods wearing arrows, but it is called "birth child" locally.
I have to emphasize again that this kind of support behavior is not worth advocating, and it is not recommended for ordinary people to understand and contact it.
"However, there are really many Jingzhu Shegong temples in Baizhou!"
Chen Jingle was amazed.
There are a total of 8,622 villages and villager groups, and every village has a temple.
One county alone is as powerful as the two neighboring state capitals!
Sure enough, you came right!
"By the way, what are these piles of stones on the roadside made of?"
Chen Jingle discovered that there were piles of stones piled up at many intersections in Baizhou, and there were many unburned fragrant bones beside them, which showed that someone was worshiping them.
The problem is that there is no title or statue of the god. It is just a pile of bare stones. I almost thought it was a stone tomb.
So he curiously checked the game system introduction.
[Brother Buddha, Baizhou people regard stones as living and spiritual beings. Passers-by will throw a stone to the roadside when passing through mountain passes, intersections, and ferries. Over time, more and more stones will accumulate, forming An earthen altar. 】
"Brother Buddha? This is the first time I've heard of it."
Chen Jingle frowned.
I don’t quite understand why the stone is related to Buddha.
Moreover, the title Fozi added as eldest brother is really a bit strange.
Could it be a dialect?
Sure enough, the customs are completely different. He has not seen such existence in other places.
Nature worship is understandable, but Chen Jingle still wants to say that ordinary stones will not be spiritual due to worship, but this kind of roadside incense will definitely be eaten.
As for what to eat, it’s hard to say.
"Forget it, just say goodbye."
Chen Jingle shook his head.
Ordinary people worship here and there just to seek peace of mind.
After he came, he cleared everything up, so he was naturally not afraid of any weird troubles.
The unexpected calmness in Baizhou may also be related to the fact that he banned two undercover agents when he came in.
"As expected, I was not disturbed and could do my own thing without any worries. It was so comfortable."
Chen Jingle is very satisfied with the current rhythm.
It feels like we are on the right track. Those who are near have evil spirits, and those who are far away have evil soldiers.
Unless there is an S-level weirdness in Daxia, he doesn't need to take action.
Of course, judging from the current situation, it will definitely happen later. This is the general trend of strange recovery.
It might happen that S-class scheming kings are everywhere.
And what he has to do is to continuously improve his own strength before that, and even help improve the strength of the entire Daxia Kingdom.
As for other countries…
Sorry, not very familiar.
…
Chen Jingle attacked the city and captured the territory from south to north, taking his time.
Baizhou, Fumian, Yuzhou...
[You discovered the Puze Dragon Temple in Puzejing. 】
"Um?!"
Chen Jingle felt something in his heart and paused in his steps.
Puze Dragon God?
It is a belief in a folk god that has never been seen before. Generally, when encountering this kind of situation, it is basically a local folk god, and there is a high probability that it once existed.
And the sudden whim also foreshadows this.
The key is the word Dragon God.
What the dragon represents must be known to everyone in Daxia.
Chen Jingle quickly flipped through the system records.
[The owner of the realm enshrined in Puze Realm is Puze Dragon God. Puze Dragon God was originally a water snake. After eight hundred years of cultivation, he became a dragon. He occupied a cold pool in Hanshan Mountain and called himself the Well Dragon King. Because of his contribution to bringing rain to the people, he was conferred the title of Puze Dragon God by the Qing Emperor. 】
[In the Dragon God Well built by the original Hantan, there is the legacy of Puze Dragon God, which can be explored. 】
"Dragon God Well? Is it really a dragon?"
Chen Jingle was slightly stunned, then became excited.
A dragon is also a dragon!
He hasn’t seen it yet!
With a decisive movement, he appeared next to the well in Hanshan.
…
At that time, Zhao Tuo, the king of South Vietnam, sent people to the mountains to pick oranges, but they did not return until ten days later. Ask why? The answer was: "It's so cold in the mountains that I can't go back."
Hence the name Hanshan.
Although Hanshan is not the highest mountain in Yulin Mansion, it is very famous.
There is a saying in Yuzhou that many people know, which is "Hanshan should be able to pray for rain", which refers to the fact that Hanshan Sansheng Temple is very effective in praying for rain.
In the eyes of Yuzhou people, the Three Saints of Hanshan are the local rain gods. Every year, the Hanshan Festival attracts tens of thousands of people to worship, and it has become a grand event in Yulin Mansion.
The temple where the Three Saints of Hanshan are located is a stone temple with a history of more than 400 years and is made entirely of large stones.
Next to the Sansheng Temple is the temple of Puze Dragon God that Chen Jingle is looking for. It has the same style.
However, there are no statues of gods in the temple, only a tablet with the title of "Emperor Conferred the Dragon God of Pu Ze" and the inscription in the sixth year of Guangxu's reign.
"In other words, the Rain God in Yuzhou is most likely not the Three Saints, but the Dragon God Puze?"
Chen Jingle raised his eyebrows, suddenly having such an idea.
I don’t know why I write so slowly. It took me a whole night and even a whole morning to write. Maybe all I have in my mind is bullshit...
