"Danger?
Demons and ghosts encounter such a strong and powerful dynasty destiny and are afraid to avoid it. Where does the danger come from? "
Old Man Zuo asked seriously. He wanted to figure out the cause and effect of the matter, get to the root of the matter, find the source of the matter, and then solve the hidden dangers at the source. This is the real way to solve the problem.
This is the habit of a military leader who has been in the army for decades!
"Not to mention demons and monsters, if some of the cultivators enshrined by the imperial court see the rich luck in our benefactor, they may be beheaded and destroy their families from the imperial court!
Of course, there may be another result, and high-ranking officials in the court will receive generous salaries.
But ordinary people are blessed with far better luck than princes. This is a taboo, and the consequences are hard to predict!
This is about the human side, then the next thing is about the demons! "
The old ghost continued: "The issue of asking for silence has been around since ancient times.
It is recorded in some miscellaneous books that it is said that during the Battle of the Gods in ancient times, there was Shang. There was a sage named Bi Gan. After being poached by King Zhou, he was instructed by an expert to look for the first person he met on the street. Just ask One of the sentences is "If a person has no intention, can he live?" 】.
After asking this question, the wise minister Bigan had a half chance of living or not living.
If the man answered that a person has no intention of living, then the ancient wise minister Bi Gan would have no intention of living.
But the first person he met said, "How can a person live without a heart?" 】
So a generation of saints fell.
This was the first time in recorded history that a person had been silenced. "
Um?
Sage Bigan, King Zhou?
Chen Yun's eyes shrank, but he didn't speak. It seemed that there was also the Shang Dynasty here, as well as Bigan and King Zhou, but the old ghost was talking about the Battle of the Gods in ancient times, not the ordinary King Wu's defeat of Zhou.
How ancient are these ancient times?
In the Battle of the Gods, if you think about it, all the demons and ghosts appeared, and the Earth God also appeared. The water in this world was originally very deep!
It’s not surprising that the Battle of the Gods has happened before!
He must understand the dynasty changes, history, and mythology of this world in the future.
However, he did not interrupt the old ghost at this time, and the old ghost continued.
"Actually, asking for silence has been around since ancient times, but few people and demons make them become gods. Why?
The first is that it damages Yin and Virtue, and the second is that many people in this world are not lucky enough. If they are not lucky enough, they cannot be rewarded, and they cannot ask for silence!
What does it mean to harm one's virtue!
I think you all understand, asking for a seal is like asking for a reward. Take what is yours and help me achieve enlightenment!
This thing is luck!
Luck is related to a person's life, death and destiny.
If the loss of luck is serious, it will also affect the life, death and destiny of the family. Even more serious, it will also affect the life, death and destiny of the clan!
If this person is an emperor, then the fate of the country and the people will be affected by the damage to his luck!
Take your luck and help me achieve enlightenment, and you will lose your own luck.
Luck is very important. It is related to the rise and fall of one's own destiny, the length of life, and the prosperity of the family. What if it is taken away?
What's more, the amount of luck required for a monster to become enlightened is so huge, how can one person support it?
What are the consequences if the person silenced by it is not lucky enough?
It will affect the family members.
It is recorded in ancient books that a woodcutter was collecting firewood on the mountain, but he happened to encounter a heavy rain. He vaguely saw a small courtyard in the heavy rain, and rushed to take shelter under the eaves.
The owner of the courtyard came out after hearing the sound of people, and invited the woodcutter into the house to drink hot tea and eat some fruits.
It is said that the hot tea, melons and fruits were conjured out of nothingness by the owner here, which instantly shocked the woodcutter!
Then the owner of the courtyard asked the woodcutter, "Brother, do you think I look like a mountain god?" 】
The woodcutter was calmed down a long time ago, and he replied stupidly [like]
The owner of the courtyard was not satisfied and asked again: "Brother, do you think I look like a mountain god?" 】
The woodcutter answered again [like]
The owner of the courtyard couldn't help but remind him [What is it like? 】
The woodcutter finally said the words "Like a mountain god!" 】
After saying this, the woodcutter felt as if something was being taken away from him.
After receiving the woodcutter's words, the owner of the courtyard laughed loudly, swept up a gust of wind and flew away, leaving a sentence in the distance: "Brother, thank you for lending me your luck to become a Taoist. I can't repay you. Go home and tell your family, it's delicious." It tastes good! 】
After the woodcutter returned home, he told his family what happened in the mountains. He was quite horrified when he told the story!
That night, his son choked on his meal and died. His daughter went out to call the doctor. She tripped on the threshold and fell to her death!
And the most terrifying thing was not their family. People with the same surname and clan as him in the village were dying one after another due to various accidents!
The woodcutter finally realized that he had been in great trouble and hurried to the government to report the incident. However, by the time someone from the government arrived in the village carrying the flag and arrows, it was already too late.
The entire village, including the woodcutter, a large family of 1,236 people, all died because of this!
For this reason, the government quickly reported it to the imperial court. The emperor was furious and sent 10,000 elite soldiers to cut down the mountains and destroy the temples. They destroyed and killed all the wild temples on the mountains that had not been enshrined by the imperial court!
Including the fox who deceived the woodcutter's family of 1,236 people into becoming gods!
Moreover, the imperial court also announced this matter to the world, so that everyone at that time would understand that when encountering such a monster, they would rather die than speak casually!
Otherwise, it will be your own family members who will be harmed! "
hiss……
More than 1,200 people died after opening his mouth to seal a mountain god. It’s terrifying to think about it.
If you just kill yourself, it won't be so scary. After all, it is your own choice. It's okay to be stupid, but don't be stupid!
Since you are stupid and have done stupid things, you have to bear the consequences of doing stupid things.
But it would be terrible if it could affect family members or tribesmen!
No one can guarantee that every member of his tribe will be shrewd and courageous, and that every one of them would rather die than surrender when faced with such a thing, and would rather die than become a god to a monster.
There will always be stupid people, there will always be stupid people, there will always be people who are timid, and there will always be people who cherish their lives.
Therefore, there will always be monsters who can successfully force people to become gods for them.
"Is there nothing we can do?"
Chen Yun looked at the old ghost and asked seriously.
The old ghost shook his head: "In this world, where there is a spear, there is a shield. Wherever there is a venomous snake, there is always medicine to detoxify it not far from where it lives.
Since there are demons and ghosts who want to steal people's luck and become gods, then there is a solution!
That is the Worship Society, also known as the She Gong, and also the Tu Gong! "
Chen Yun looked at the Tutu Temple, which was still burning, but the fire was almost extinguished: "Is it that kind of Tutu Temple?"
The old ghost shook his head and nodded: "Yes, and no!"
“She is the land, and the owner of the society is the public, also known as the land god, but the god of the land is not necessarily the public.
The village community house is where the souls of ancestors gather. Generally, a community is built at the entrance of the village, and incense and candles are offered on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month, so that the deceased ancestors can live here to repel the goblins and ghosts in the wild, and at the same time, the ancestors can block the energy leaking out of the village!
Just because this society was just the totem pole of the human tribe when it first appeared, also known as the social pillar. It existed when the human race was born in the world and knew how to unite and condense destiny. It is the root of the human race to stand on the heaven and earth.
Later, it gradually evolved into a social house.
After the ancestors gathered in the community house, the incense flourished, and the ancestors naturally became the community members, regulating the earth's energy, driving away the disease, and forming an army and a country with heroic spirits, benefiting and protecting the village and the place.
Because the Shegong is the ancestor of the native village, the village, and the clan, he collects the souls of the village's deceased people in the community house, and forms a small country or city in the underworld.
If the descendants are prosperous and filial, and there are enough incense and candles to offer sacrifices on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month, the heroic spirits of the ancestors will be powerful in the underworld!
When the commune in the community house and the heroic spirits of the ancestors are strong enough, they can stop things like this that seek silence and cause the clan members to be drained of their luck.
Of course, whatever troubles you cause outside are your responsibility! "
As if listening to a story, Chen Yun kept in mind this world's unique culture or legend that he had never heard of before.
But looking at the Earth Temple that was about to be extinguished, he still asked: "So, what is the difference between this Earth Temple and the community?"
The old ghost looked back at the ruins of the Earth Temple behind him, as well as the aura of underworld gradually getting stronger in his body, and decided to keep the story short.
"Such a land lord is appointed by the government and has almost no soldiers. He relies entirely on the authority of the land god and only has the most basic priesthood.
This kind of land god rewarded by the government has only two powers.
The first authority is to protect the villages assigned by the government within the scope of its responsibilities and prevent jackals, tigers, leopards, demons and ghosts from entering the village and harming the villagers. However, due to the low power of the gods, they can only expel some small demons and ghosts. If it happens three to five hundred years or even a thousand years The great demon of Taoism and the God of Earth cannot protect themselves.
Another duty is to sort out the temperament of the land cultivated within the scope of one's duties so that the harvest will be abundant!
However, if the community established by the village itself has a long history and strong incense, it can become a small country or city in the underworld.
There are many Yin soldiers transformed from the souls of ancestors, and they are naturally capable of protecting and even attacking the monsters and ghosts that peek into the village!
Moreover, the communal and ancestor ghosts have the same interests as the people of the village.
In the community, the kingdom established by the community and the heroic spirits of the ancestors in the underworld must be maintained by the incense offered by the descendants. The more incense offered by the descendants, the more powerful the ancestors will be in the underworld!
The stronger the ancestors, the more powerful the protection they provide to their descendants. This is a relationship in which both parties complement each other!
This is why, if people in the world encounter a military disaster and need to move, they will take their ancestors' tablets and social flags with them. The land gods granted by the court cannot go with you, but their ancestors can.
Just because you go to a strange place, if you don't have the blessing of your ancestors, you will easily be eaten by monsters! "
Upon hearing this, Chen Yun understood that their family was from Guangnan West Road, but they were not locals from the beginning.
At the end of the Ming Dynasty, those who fled from the north had their ancestors at the foot of the Qinling Mountains. It is said that when they fled to Guangnan West Road, they also carried their ancestors' memorial tablets and social flags with them.
It is also an ancient saying that a village should be established first.
From this point on the two worlds are pretty much the same.
Regardless of Chen Yun's emotion, the old ghost continued: "It is precisely because of the imperial court's announcement that the land gods and public servants are enshrined in the countryside. With protection, it is difficult for one person to plot against the enemy like the mountain spirits and monsters. The luck of his whole family!
As a result, mountain spirits and monsters often failed in their quest for a title.
Just because these mountain spirits and monsters usually want too much, they actually ask ordinary people to become gods!
But how could the weak luck of ordinary people support them to become gods, so all attempts to gain the title failed.
This kind of failure in asking for a seal can easily damage the foundation. At the least, you will never make any progress in your life. If you practice for many years, it will be in vain. At worst, you will die on the spot!
Gradually, the number of mountain spirits and monsters seeking help from people to beg for seals becomes less and less, and they are also afraid of death!
Weasels are the only ones who have been insisting on asking for the title, but they have changed from asking for the title of gods to asking for the title of humans.
After lowering the conditions, the number of successful cases of seeking a seal has increased a lot. Success can be achieved by consuming a person's luck.
It took other monsters seven to eight hundred and thousands of years of practice to reach the realm of transformation and create a human form.
But the Weasel can melt away its cartilage in just tens or hundreds of years of practice. Once he can speak, he can personally ask for a seal. As long as he succeeds, he can cultivate his human form in just tens or hundreds of years!
The human body is different from the animal body. Monsters may take seven to eight hundred or thousands of years to cultivate to the state of transformation, but humans with a natural Taoist body may only need to practice for tens or hundreds of years to crush an old monster with seven to eight hundred years of Taoism. "
Old Man Zuo suddenly interrupted and said: "You said that the yellow man who died in Chen Yun's hands was beaten to death with a stick because he plotted against Chen Yun.
Chen Yun has such a strong and huge dynasty luck protective body that demons and monsters are afraid to avoid him.
In this case, where does the danger you mentioned caused by monsters and monsters come from? "
The old ghost had long expected such a question and smiled confidently: "I am just a newly deceased old ghost. I just read some miscellaneous books and guessed 70% to 80% of my benefactor's origins, especially his body." His luck is so huge and powerful!
As long as you have a little bit of ability, it is basically impossible to ignore it when you encounter it!
So, a 100-year-old weasel was attacked by luck when plotting against his benefactor, but a 500-year-old weasel could barely withstand the slight backlash of luck for the time being and remind the benefactor to be careful that the government can detect luck. This is called The reminder is actually a threat. I wonder if the benefactor will reward it with a god?
If not, I'm afraid it really went to the government to report, and if the benefactor's identity was discovered by the government, it would even implicate the entire village here! "
Chen Yun was stunned for a moment and had not yet reacted.
But Old Man Zuo’s hand that was casually resting on the handle of the knife was now tightly held: “So, you are calling it a reminder, but actually it is a threat?
Does that mean that Chen Yun is going to grant you a divine status?
You are not an old Xia scholar, who are you? "
The old ghost smiled bitterly as he saw the aura of underworld getting stronger and stronger on his body, and stopped turning around: "I am indeed Xia Xiucai, but I am younger than you, so you don't deserve to be called an old scholar!
But, you guessed it!
My name is a reminder, but it is actually a request, not a threat. I just want to make a deal.
I want to ask my benefactor to make me a land god!
In return, I told my benefactor how to hide his dazzling, huge and powerful manifestation of destiny!
In addition, it will also help my benefactor avoid many mistakes and dangers that he may make!
Finally, if my benefactor canonize me as a god, then I will be the grass-headed god under your control. If you can canonize me, you can destroy me!
What if you don't know the will of the general public? "
At this time, Chen Yun's eyes slowly turned red, and a voice suddenly echoed in his head. He stared at the old ghost and said suddenly: "You want to harm me!
How dare you harm me..."
It was quiet at first, but after repeating it twice, the sound became louder and louder, reaching the point where it was beyond normal.
In the end, it seemed like some kind of creature was roaring and roaring!
Like a cow...
