The Southern Heaven Lightning Sensing Fire and Thunder Water-Tail Holy Lady is very similar to the "Southern Heaven Lightning Fire and Thunder Saint Lady" mentioned before among Mrs. Xian's many divine titles.
Perhaps there was a fusion of elements during the development process, but Chen Jingle is certain that the two are not the same person.
Because Shuiwei Shengniang belief is a local sea god belief in Qiongdao. It originated from Qinglan Port in Pingchang. Nowadays, it is mainly distributed in the east and north of the island, that is, in several cities near Pingchang.
The history of Shuiwei Saint Lady’s belief is not that long.
It first appeared in the Zhengde period of the Ming Dynasty, and Mrs. Xian Tai was a native of the Northern and Southern Dynasties. There were many temples in the Tang and Song Dynasties, and by the Ming Dynasty the belief was widespread in Lingnan.
This is where Chen Jingle believes that the two are not the same person.
The system responded similarly.
In addition, Shuiwei Shengniang is both a local deity in Qiongdao and a flying deity.
According to the "Pingchang County Chronicles" written by Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty: "The Qinglan Shuiwei Temple is dedicated to Lady Nantian. During the Zhengde period of the Ming Dynasty, a stone furnace came to Shuiwei to build a temple. It is unique. There is also a temple in the seaside port, which is where people come and go. Chong, the prayers are answered immediately, and the blood food will not fade away. Every October 15th during the military period, people from all over the world gather together, which is called a grand gathering."
It probably means that during the Zhengde period of the Ming Dynasty, a stone furnace flew to Qinglan, Wenchang (today's Dongjiao Town, Wenchang City), and people built temples to worship it.
Before the temple was built, there was a story.
At first, a fisherman was fishing at sea. He cast his net several times and caught the same piece of wood. He felt it was strange and said, "If you let me catch a big fish, I will take you back and carve it into a statue to worship." "
The third time I cast the net, I was rewarded with a bountiful harvest.
This story is somewhat similar to the previous Dawang Temple in Dijiao Port, Zhucheng.
The difference is that after the fisherman returned home, he forgot about it and his wife used the wood as the threshold of the pig pen.
The result was that all the piglets given birth to by the sow died.
The fisherman was heartbroken, but a goddess appeared in his dream that night and scolded him for not keeping his promise. This was a small punishment for him. Only then did the fisherman wake up and agreed to build a temple statue for him.
Before the temple was built, an incense burner was set up first. However, after praying for three days, the incense burner disappeared for no reason. Later, we found that the incense burner was in a forest at the end of the water. After surveying by a Feng Shui master, we found that this place was indeed a Feng Shui treasure, and we just built the Shengniang Temple here.
This Shengniang Temple is also the ancestral temple of Shengniang temples everywhere.
Another key figure related to Shuiwei Saint Niang is Zhang Yuesong during the Jiaqing period of the Qing Dynasty.
This person was the only top talent in Qiongdao's imperial examination era and was known as one of the four great talents in Qiongdao. It is said that he went to Beijing to take the exam, dreamed of Shuiwei Saint Niang, and received her guidance to be the top student in high school.
Later, Zhang Yuesong personally found the Shuiwei Shengniang Temple where she was enshrined, wrote a plaque and presented it to him. At the same time, he petitioned Emperor Jiaqing to confer the title of "Shuiwei Shengniang, who can sense fire and thunder in the south".
Since Zhang Yuesong was promoted to the second-grade chief envoy, the reputation of Shuiwei Holy Lady has become more and more popular.
After the development of the Ming and Qing dynasties, the belief in Shuiwei Saint Niang gradually spread to various counties and cities in Qiongdao.
Shuiwei Shengniang Temple exists in many overseas areas and small countries in Southeast Asia. They all went out to work hard to bring their faith over and take root in the local area.
So many people in Qiongdao gradually put Shuiwei Shengniang, Queen Mazu and Mrs. Xian together, and called them the three sisters.
All three have the power of sea gods, and they are all goddesses, making it easier for them to be recognized by believers.
For ordinary people who are not familiar with the titles of folk gods, it is indeed difficult to distinguish the three, especially since some temples are also called Shengniang temples, but they are dedicated to other goddesses.
Generally, Mazu’s main deity cards are Tianfei, Tianhou and Holy Mother;
Mrs. Xian Tai is Yimei, Rouhui and Madam;
Water Tail Saint Lady is the easiest to distinguish. The one with the word "water tail" means it, but not necessarily if it doesn't.
…
Pyeongchang is not small.
The problem is that the towns are too scattered. The population of more than half a million is divided into 17 towns and more than 3,000 villages.
Except for the main urban area, there are many state-owned farms scattered here and there in other places.
In most village temples in the countryside, Mrs. Xian is still worshiped.
There is no way, Mrs. Xian Tai has too much influence in Qiongdao.
As the local sea goddess, Shuiwei Shengniang is also worshiped in many temples. Although it cannot be found in every village, her belief is stable.
Fortunately, there are no serious and weird troubles in Pyeongchang.
Occasionally, there are one or two weak chickens here and there, but they are killed by Chen Jinngle without any need for the Civil Affairs Bureau to take action.
Therefore, we did not spend too long in Pingchang.
After bringing all the Jingzhu temples under his jurisdiction, Chen Jinngle went to Yecheng.
As the provincial capital of Qiongdao, Yecheng is also his last stop in Qiongdao. Once Yecheng is included in the jurisdiction and protection, the entire Qiongdao will be the same as Guangdong and Guangxi.
To be honest, the time spent in Qiongdao has exceeded original expectations.
On the one hand, there are all kinds of strange events, on the other hand, Qiongdao in summer is really interesting, and there is a lot to eat, and I can't stop eating.
In this regard, he, a god, is actually no different from ordinary people.
Only at such times would Chen Jingle feel sincerely happy, allowing him to truly feel that he was still a human being.
rather than fully God.
There is no need to act like you are aloof and aloof from the world.
Gods must also abide by the Basic Law and come from believers and go to believers.
It's a combination of work and rest.
Otherwise, my nerves will be tense all the time. Although it won't destroy myself, it will still be a bit uncomfortable.
Besides, the current Daxia government has mastered S-level power. As long as they don't burst out ten or eight S-level weird things at once, I believe that their strength is enough to deal with various emergencies.
Chen Jingle was also much more relaxed.
At least he's no longer fighting alone.
He will always stand with Da Xia, but he will not say that he will always help Da Xia walk. If a child wants to learn to walk or even run, it is impossible for him to learn how to do so if he is always supported.
It is better to teach people to fish than to teach them how to fish.
He has taught everything that needs to be taught, and he has given almost everything that needs to be given. It would be too disappointing if it is still a puddle of mud that cannot hold up the wall.
Fortunately, the Daxia government is currently performing pretty well.
…
Coconut City, Civil Division.
Li Yunting is discussing with everyone the construction of imperial temples in various cities and counties.
The culture of Qiongdao City Emperor is better than that of Chuchuan City, so the City Emperor will not be reduced to living in the palaces of other gods.
In the past, as a place of government, there were also three city emperor temples.
One is the Fucheng Emperor Temple located in Yecheng, which worships the two city emperors, the County Emperor and the Fucheng Emperor.
One is located in Lecheng, Qiong County. It was rebuilt only two years ago. It is the most magnificent of the three Chenghuang Temples.
The last one is located in Zhuyaling, Yecheng. It is the simplest, with only a three-entry civil structure and tiled house.
Among them, the Fucheng Imperial Temple was built during the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty and was dedicated to Hai Rui.
It stands to reason that officials of the former dynasty should not be enshrined, but even if they take the name of Haigangfeng, they can't fault it, so they can only recognize it by holding their noses.
Li Yunting had previously reported to the administration and applied for the renovation and repair of the main temples across the island, as well as the construction of Chenghuang temples in various counties and cities.
Funding has been approved recently.
According to the belief and culture of Qiongdao people, in fact, public temples in most areas are maintained all year round and do not need to be rebuilt. Simply repairing them does not cost much.
The focus is on Chenghuang Temple.
Li Yunting's opinion is: "The City Emperor Temple in Renfang, Qiongshan, is acceptable as a county-level City Emperor Temple, but if it is used as a Fucheng Emperor Temple, it is a bit unusable. It only has one room in total, covering an area of 100,000. Come square.”
Others asked: "Do you mean to leave Qiongshan as a county-level city emperor temple? Yes, yes, but what about the Zhuyaling one? Is it difficult to demolish it?"
Before Li Yunting could speak, someone shook his head and retorted:
"The one at Zhuya Ridge is not considered a formal Chenghuang Temple. The specifications alone are not in line with the Chenghuang Temple, and the temple name is empty. In addition to the Chenghuang, there are also Zhuya Gong, Ouhou Wang, Hua Tuo and others who worship the city emperor. Lord, Marshal Gao, etc. are obviously just using the name of the city emperor to attract incense for other secular gods. There is no need to demolish it, but it will not be deliberately publicized. It is enough to have a county emperor temple in Qiongshan."
As soon as these words came out, everyone nodded.
"I also support the construction of another Fuchenghuang Temple. If you look at others, it is also Fuchenghuang Temple, but at least their Chenghuang Temple is spacious and grand. It is also a good choice as a new tourist attraction. Even if there is no admission fee , the incense money is enough to meet the daily maintenance, if not a little support from the municipal government is enough."
"The key is that the protection of a city emperor temple to a county is obvious. There has been no strange incident in Guangnan for a while. In comparison, one appears in the southwest from time to time, even if the scope of influence is limited , but it’s also bad if it happens too often.”
"In comparison, I feel that our Qiongdao is already lucky, and we still benefit from Guangnan. The Huitou City Emperor Temple has been repaired, the various places are peaceful and peaceful, and the tourism economy is not disturbed. The support for the development of this province is obvious."
"Agree! After the construction is completed, the Fucheng Emperor's statue will be brought to the Fucheng Emperor's Temple, and the county's Emperor's statue will be left in Qiongshan. By the way, the original City Emperor's Temple in Qiongshan will be renovated. I remember it has been a few years."
“Other counties and districts are also completing planning as soon as possible and starting construction as soon as possible.”
"Where are Dan'er and Lucheng? Is it the imperial temple in Fucheng or the imperial temple in the county?"
"The state capital is naturally the capital of Fucheng. It just needs to be smaller in size than the provincial capital in Yecheng."
"..."
After some discussion, the matter was successfully settled.
…
Qiongdao plans to build Chenghuang Temple at the county level and above, just like the Guangdong and Guangxi regions.
It doesn’t matter if the specifications are small, but it must be there.
After all, times have changed, and it is no longer the time to criticize feudal superstition. The power of the god can really protect the people from strange intrusions.
It is a blessing to be protected by gods.
Even if it is difficult to publicize it positively due to the above intention, it does not prevent the pragmatists below from maintaining due respect when facing the City Emperor.
Once an A-level or S-level weird thing occurs and the government fails to provide timely support, it is often ordinary people who suffer. But with the Chenghuang Temple, you can basically sit back and relax.
It’s really not a joke. The Guangdong and Guangxi regions have proven this through practice.
The current government cultivators in the Lingnan area, including Qiongdao, will act as an auxiliary force to resist weirdness for a long time to come. When the cultivation level of the whole people improves, there will be enough high-level cultivators. By then, Only then will it become the main force against the strange.
This is different from other areas.
Without the help of Chen Jingle in other places, naturally they can only rely on the craftsmen and practitioners from the Civil Affairs Bureau of the state capital.
Only when the situation under the command of the City Emperor expands to their area can they be as relaxed as in Guangdong and Guangxi.
Before that, they can only work hard for a while.
…
"Director, that person has already appeared in Meilan."
A staff member came in to report.
"It's good to come."
Li Yunting let out a long sigh.
It’s not easy, I finally got the other person I was looking forward to.
After all the realm master temples in Yecheng show supernatural phenomena, it is estimated that the entire Qiong Island will be protected by that adult.
The lives of the eight million people on the island are now guaranteed!
Chen Jinngle didn't know what Li Yunting thought, and he didn't care.
He just wants to do what he wants to do.
As the largest city in Qiongdao, Yecheng has an urbanization rate of 80%, which is beyond the reach of other cities. Fortunately, the local folk belief atmosphere is strong, so many village names and local temples can be preserved.
Chen Jinngle wanted to get it done as soon as possible and deliberately speeded up the process. Even in the provincial capital city, it would not take longer than other cities.
Counting the entire Qiongdao, there are a total of 20,287 villages.
However, in some places, several villages form one boundary and worship one local master temple. Therefore, the number of local master temples must be roughly halved.
Even if this is the case, it is still more than 10,000 seats!
Although it is not as good as Chuchuan Prefecture, it does not prevent it from being a province.
Province is province, there is no doubt about this!
When the last realm master temple was lit up, Chen Jingle finally succeeded in bringing all the more than 10,000 realm master temples in Qiongdao under his jurisdiction.
On the game map, the area belonging to Qiong Island was also successfully lit up.
At the same time, more than 10,000 realm master temples lit up the incense in unison, making Chen Jingle's strength improve again.
Although the improvement is not as big as the previous two times, it is still very good!
I didn't have high expectations for Qiongdao and his party, so I couldn't say I was disappointed. On the contrary, it was an unexpected surprise to be able to gain something.
At the same time, the system prompts started to jump wildly.
[Congratulations on successfully occupying all the realm master temples in Yecheng! 】
[You have obtained 500,000 incense points. 】
[Congratulations on successfully occupying all the realm master temples in Qiongdao Province! 】
[You have obtained 1,000,000 incense points. 】
【slightly】
[You have obtained the Thirty-Six Heavenly Gang Law’s Heaven-Mending Bathing Day. 】
[You have obtained the seal of the Minxiansheng King of Chengtian Jianguo. 】
Another Tiangang supernatural power!
[Mending the sky and bathing the sun has the ability to mend the sky and bathe the sun. Note: “This is the great power of creation that creates heaven and earth.”]
The Heaven-Mending Bathing Day is related to two ancient mythological powers.
One is Nuwa and the other is Xihe.
The legend of Nuwa patching up the sky is well known.
Xihe's bathing in the sun refers to the fact that Xihe's ten sons will take turns to be on duty as the sun every day, and Xihe will wash each of his sons clean and bright before they go to work.
To mend the sky, it is the fire that blocks the sky;
On the bathing day, what you bathe is the true fire of the sun.
Both are things that require great power, and as one of the thirty-six methods of Tiangang, the Heaven-Building Bathing Day helps to increase the strength of the physical body.
The importance of the physical body is self-evident.
The human world is a sea of suffering, and the human body is a boat, which is the foundation for carrying the Tao.
Among the three thousand avenues, the strength of physical sanctification is one of the best.
As for how strong you are, it depends on your personal cultivation.
If you practice to an advanced level, you can mend the sky with your bare hands or jump into the sun to take a bath.
Only then will you truly be able to mend the sky and bathe in the sun!
As for the gold seal...
Chen Jinngle looked at it and saw that there were some changes compared to the previous ones.
The text engraved on the gold seal became "Seal of the Emperor of Lingnan Capital, Chengtian Jianguo, Minxiansheng King Seal".
The sage king of Lingnan...
Is this considered another half-level upgrade?
