A few days later, two other thieves also stole hens from unknown sources and cooked them in the fire pit by making them paste with mud. Of course Liu Liu and the other three thieves ate them with relish and were overjoyed. of. But the sins they had committed could be settled by more than just stealing a few hens.
Let’s just talk about Liu Liu! After he strangled the hen and stole it, he didn't know that the hen was incubating. There were still 25 eggs in the henhouse, which were already fertilized and formed. There will be chickens. Because it usually takes a chicken mother 21 days to hatch a brood of chickens, which means it takes three to seven days.
At that time, after the chicken mother was stolen, the owner did not discover it in time. He found out a few days later and smelled an unpleasant odor. He followed the smell and found that there was no chicken mother in the chicken coop. Those 25 eggs were all broken, which means that the formed chicks inside suddenly lost the protection of the hen. For a little longer, because the life inside was still quite fragile, they all froze to death as soon as they caught the cold.
What is dead is just the body, but what is not dead is the ghost of the chicken. So the dead souls of the 25 chickens found the dead hen, and the dead hen led them to complain to the local animal god who was in charge of the livestock, accusing Yangshi Liu Liu of his sins. Liu Liu was not only guilty of stealing chickens and killing them for food, he was also guilty of causing necrosis of a nest of eggs after his hens were stolen, which resulted in the innocent deaths of 25 little creatures about to be born.
The Animal God knew both animal language and human language, so he immediately wrote a complaint and sent it to the local City God's Temple. Soon, the City God received one after another complaints from the Animal God against other thieves. After reading it, the City God summarized the complaint and wrote it into a comprehensive memorial accusing Liu Liu and other three thieves, and submitted it to the King of Hell in the underworld.
After reading the story, the King of Hell immediately punished Liu Liu and other three thieves by shortening their lifespan, that is, putting them in an unexpected car accident.
Sure enough, they died in a car accident on a long-distance bus that Qian Jishi was riding on.
According to the regulations of Yin Zha, these three snake-hearted thieves will not only go to hell, but at least their undead souls will be reincarnated as animals. At that time, most of the people who died in a car accident were guilty of death, but their crimes would not cause them to be reincarnated as animals, and they would become humans again.
What is the basis for this? The basis is provided by the local earth gods. After the death of these 43 people, the mountain god of the mountain was the first to know, followed by the earth god at the foot of the mountain. The land god here immediately notified the local City God Temple, and the city god immediately held a meeting to order the land god of the thousands of villages and towns nearby under his jurisdiction, which is a social order! Everyone informed them to come to the Chenghuang Temple to hold an emergency meeting.
Soon more than ten land gods from the village came to attend the meeting chaired by the City God. Many Yinmen from the Chenghuang Temple also attended the meeting, and the mountain gods from Longhu Mountain were also present.
I saw the City God standing in front of the City God's Temple with the ghost soldiers holding torches. He brushed his robes with both hands and said solemnly: Dear land and mountain gods, at about midnight tonight, a long-distance minibus heading towards Nalanda Temple passed by. There was a car accident in Longhu Mountain. The car rolled into an almost bottomless canyon. There were 44 people in the car. Only a monk named Qian Jishi who chanted Buddha's name did not die. The others were all killed and none survived. There are so many people now. The souls of the dead men and women cried loudly on Longhu Mountain. Their cries could not be heard by the Yang people.
Now our first task is to escort all 43 undead souls to the city god. The escorts must be classified. The land gods you come to attend the meeting are all nearby social orders. Remember, all the souls of the deceased in their respective jurisdictions must be escorted. Come to our City God's Temple, and then work harder and review the good deeds and sins of the deceased throughout the night. First, separate the souls of good people and evil people and imprison them separately. Did you hear that?
I heard. Most of the land gods responded in kind.
The city god answered, and then the good people and the evil people were sorted into different grades, and then they were escorted to the underworld together so that they could be sent to the Department of Rewarding the Good and the Department of Punishing the Evil, or the Hall of the King of Hell.
Of course, people who die in car accidents usually have such evil faults. With such faults, they are not really good people. Maybe there are more evil people. How else would they suffer such a fatal disaster? A great virtuous person like Monk Qian Jishi, he was able to escape from death unscathed, which is a testimony to this.
Suddenly the mountain god spoke: City God, what you said makes sense, but there are special circumstances. But I think not all those who die are evil people, there are also people who are neither good nor bad, neither evil nor bad. Of course, some good people may die in car accidents. A great man from Dongtu Kingdom once said: Where there is struggle, there will be sacrifice. People who work hard for a better life for the people should be good people and people of high moral character. Such people are also prone to sacrifice or death.
The city god said that if such a person died, he would be a martyr in the world of heaven, and he could be enshrined as a god in the underworld. But it is certain that none of the people who died in this car accident were martyrs. There may be ordinary good people.
The mountain god said that monk Qian Jishi should be a good person or a great good person. Of course, great good people may not be able to escape this disaster. Monk Qian Jishi was able to escape this calamity because he kept the Buddha's name on his lips and kept in contact and interacted with the Buddha and Bodhisattva, who have boundless power. The Buddha and Bodhisattva cast a little magic and he was saved.
The City God said, let’s not discuss this issue for now, you should act quickly. If any undead refuses to obey orders, Yin Chai and the Mountain God can help rectify it.
A group of yinzai present and the mountain gods of Longhu Mountain said in unison, obey!
Therefore, each of the participating land gods was equipped with a secret agent from the City God's Temple, and they rushed to the scene of the car accident in the Longhu Mountain Canyon.
Most of the undead souls were still there making loud lamentations and wailing. Only the ghosts of the three thieves, Liu Liu and others, looked gloomy but did not cry bitterly. They took this car to go to Yunfeng County to steal overnight. Unexpectedly, they also became some of the victims of the car accident. Starlight in the night sky, staring blankly at the stiffened corpses curled up in the car that had been bruised and bloody.
At this time, Shan Shen stood on the side of the long-distance minibus that had overturned in the canyon and turned upside down. He loudly preached, "Dear victims, you died miserably. I express my sympathy." Now the earth gods from 11 different places have come and will send you to the City God's Temple to wait for a few days. Then we will go to the underworld to meet the King of Hell together.
I saw an earth god with a beard on his face shouting to a station on the side slope of the canyon, I am the earth god of Mengjialing Village, and all the souls of the dead from my village come to me.
As soon as he finished speaking, five undead souls, namely three men and two women, came to the land god of Mengjialing Village crying.
Then, an earth god who called himself Zhaojiawan Village stood on the other side of the canyon and said similar words, and 10 more undead approached him one after another. Then there were several land gods who reported their place names and stood in different positions.
After a while, 40 of the 43 undead souls gathered together with the land gods in their respective jurisdictions.
In the end, there were only three undead souls left who refused to obey orders. Not only did they unconsciously submit to the land gods in their respective territories, they also agreed to drift away from the scene of the car accident together and wander aimlessly on Longhu Mountain.
At this time, the land god of Mengjialing Village shouted to Liu Liu in their group, Liu Liu, you are from our village, why don't you come and submit to me? Where are you going?
The land god of Zhaojiawan Village and the land god of another village were also calling out the thief in their village by name. But the three of them ignored him at all and continued to walk out of the mountain in their own way.
