Chapter 95: The God of the Jade River
According to legend, the five oldest Heavenly Emperors in the Heavenly Court are all cultivating the method of immortals.
However, since the five Heavenly Emperors established the Heavenly Court, they have forbidden the joint cultivation of the world's immortals, and exterminated most of the orthodox sects of cultivating immortals.
Under the shroud of heaven, you can only cultivate gods, not immortals, and whoever dares to cultivate immortals will violate the rules of heaven and destroy your soul!
What is the reason for this? Because the divine law and the immortal law are themselves contradictory laws.
The divine law shepherds the heavens and the earth, nurtures living beings, breeds spiritual energy, and repeats the cycle.
The immortal law is against the sky, absorbing the aura between heaven and earth, the essence of the sun and the moon, only knowing how to ask for it, and never returning.
Therefore, although the immortal law can live forever, there must be a heavenly tribulation, and every three to five hundred years, all those who cultivate the immortal law will inevitably experience a heavenly tribulation.
Similar to cultivating immortals, the flow of demons is also similar, demons become essences, in fact, they are similar to immortal cultivators, they are all plundering.
Thousands of years ago, although there were immortal cultivators, monsters, and ghosts in the world, they were all unsuccessful.
Thousands of years later, this world is turbulent, the origin is shaking, the righteous gods, the true immortals are all dead, and the same is true for those big demons and big demons.
Under the shock of the origin, the aura is gone, who can still live? It is great that they can hide in some caves and survive for a while, but they can't last long, either they will live and die, or they will seal themselves.
The restoration of the divine seal allowed him to slowly recover some of the abilities of the river god.
There are three abilities.
1. Transform incense into divine power.
Second, mobilize the water power of nearby rivers within 10 miles.
Third, reconcile the yin and yang of the waters and breed aura.
Of course, the premise of these three steps is to build a temple for yourself first.
This step is not difficult.
Three days later, at the east end of the village, Wang Xiu had built a small Yushui River temple here.
This temple is not big, similar to the land temple in general, only the zhang Xu Fangyuan, but the internal organs are all gathered, and in the center of it sits a first-born dragon horn, the appearance is handsome and with three points of majesty of the river god statue.
The appearance of this idol is seven points similar to Ao Xiu, and three points similar to Chu Xiu.
The Divine Seal had just been restored, and it could not carry much divine power, so Wang Xiu established the Yushui River Temple, not the Yuyun River Temple.
Yuyun River is a broad and slender river, starting from the top of the snow-capped mountains in the south, entering the mouth of the North Sea in the north, from the source to the end of the river, it is three thousand miles long, and the status is comparable to the Yangtze River, the Yellow River in general.
How could such a temple be what Wang Xiu could erect now, and the Yushui River was different, it was just a small river that branched off from the tributaries of the Yuyun River, with a total length of no more than ten miles and a width of about sixty meters.
It is most suitable to become such a small river god first, even if it is a god, you have to upgrade step by step.
Wang Xiu stood in front of the temple, took out the prepared incense, lit it on the small incense burner in front of the temple with a candle, and the light smoke rose, and a faint incense flame swirled.
But this can't be regarded as having incense, because this is the incense that Wang Xiu himself gave to himself, and there is no power such as faith, awe, incense, etc.
In the days that followed, in addition to putting a pillar of incense on his temple every day, Wang Xiu opened a small incense shop next to his house, so that Chunxiang guarded and sold inferior incense sticks, which were very cheap, ten sticks per penny, only three sticks of incense were needed each time, and one penny of incense could be used three times.
Of course, after his demonstration of incense, there will soon be a second villager to worship incense, people, there will always be some people who are in awe of the gods, and those who can be respectful will always pay homage, no matter in which era there are such people.
Soon the first person to put on the incense appeared, it was a widow, Widow Liu, who lost her husband two years ago in Yushui Village, with her eight-year-old son and six-year-old daughter, when she passed by Wang Xiu's house, she saw the small Yushui River Temple.
She looked sad at this time, she had just returned from her mother's house, because her family was poor and could not afford to support her two children, she went back to her mother's house to borrow some food, but she did not borrow it, only gave a small half bag of rice.
Widow Liu didn't think about remarrying, but her two children, one was only eight years old and the other was only six years old, because of this, no one wanted to marry her, unless she was willing to abandon these two children, or sell them.
But she couldn't.
Widow Liu can only work hard to cultivate the two thin fields left by her dead man, plus some of the savings she once had, and she has survived until now, but she is almost unable to hold on now.
The so-called widow has a lot of things to do in front of her, and her life is really not easy.
Seeing the river temple, somehow, Widow Liu's heart was full of bitterness, gods, who can help me, I also want to remarry, but I can't do it if I abandon my two children.
Seeing this temple and the incense stall next to it, she stepped forward and asked Chunxiang, who was sitting next to the incense stall and watching, "This girl, this Yushui River Temple built by this Prince of Chu, what can the gods in it bless?"
Chunxiang doesn't know what the lord (because it is officially separated, so it is called the lord) thinks, and she doesn't understand this, and she can't make much money selling incense, but she knows that these incense are just ordinary incense that her lord bought from the incense shop in the county, and the wholesale price is only five sticks per penny, and three sticks are sold here for a penny, how much money can be earned?
However, as a scholar, there is a village tax as income, and the lord is not short of money.
Where does Chunxiang dare to ask these reasons as a servant, just do your best, at this time I saw someone come up to ask, and Chunxiang said according to the old man's words:
"This temple is dedicated to the god of the Yushui River, which can bless all the families in the villages around the Yushui River, the house is safe, the wind and rain are smooth every year, the six animals are prosperous, everything is safe, the family is rich, as long as the heart is incense, it will be blessed by the river god. ”
When Widow Liu heard this, she nodded slightly, she was sad in her heart, she didn't want to be rich, she just wanted to live in peace, let the two children grow up, and no one would harass her in front of her door at night.
"Then, I don't know how much this incense costs?"
"Three pennies a penny. ”
Although Widow Liu was poor at this time, she still had a penny, and she just wanted to find a psychological comfort at this time, so she took out a penny and handed it over with her silver teeth.
"Then get me a penny of incense. ”
There is no reason to worship the gods and incense, so Widow Liu directly lit the three incense sticks and respectfully knelt down on the futon prepared in front of this pocket temple.
"Xinnu Liu, incense to the river god, please bless the people's daughter's house safely, life is healthy, no one will come to the letter girl's house to harass her, bless the two children of the letter girl to grow up......"
"If this wish can be fulfilled, the believer will continue to incense every day and worship the gods......"
The first wisp of incense was produced, lingering in front of the temple, and in the invisible perspective of mortals, this wisp of incense was submerged into the divine seal in the sea of Wang Xiuzhi.
"The first incense has appeared!"
In the courtyard house not far away, Wang Xiu's eyes closed, and he 'saw' this wisp of incense appearing like a cloud, and a trace of it seeped into the divine seal, the divine seal glowed slightly white, and the dragon ball in the center of the divine seal was the same, absorbing this incense.
