No Jiang Mountain.

When Qu Yi led the army of the Ao tribe through Fuyun Pass, Shen went to patrol the eastern part of the mountain.

Suddenly, he heard the big stones rolling and making noise at the foot of the mountain, so he looked down the mountain, but saw thousands of people carrying flags and running fast, and he couldn't help but be surprised, and hurriedly called out to Shang Qu: "Master ......Qu! The clouds have closed down, and the demons have come down!"

Shang Qu was meditating in the ancestral temple, smelling the call, he flew out, looked at the floating clouds, and saw countless demons carrying flags and running, suddenly like people, suddenly like tigers, bluffing people's souls, so he said: "Don't care about them! Eighty percent is going to attack Linjiang County." ”

"Attack Linjiang County! This group of demons is so fierce, Linjiang County must not be able to defend it? No, I have to help them!"

"Linjiang County can't hold it, what do you care?" Shang Qu hurriedly grabbed his head.

"Linjiang County can't hold it, so won't the people under the mountain suffer?"

"Even if the people of Linjiang County suffer, they can't be taken care of by you, and someone else will take care of it! Shang Qu said with a bad look, "Could it be that you are the master who got the dragon horse spear?"

"It's not. God didn't know that Shangqu was coaxing him, and replied honestly.

"Since it's not, then what kind of business are you anxious about!" Shang Qu said solemnly, "Beware of the gods on the other side, it's your most important thing!" You are just injured now, if you are injured again, the gods will take the opportunity to snatch the mountain and see what else you have to do!"

God didn't expect this crisis, and couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat: "I went to kill demons and save the people, but he came to rob my mountain?"

Besides, now is the critical moment to rescue the God King, so you can save your worries. "Business channels.

"Oh...... If that is said, then I will not go down the mountain. Shengo suddenly thought of the powerful relationship, so he hung his head, lost his breath, wilted, and watched Qu Yi lead the army of the Tuo clan over the Fuyun Pass and go straight to Linjiang County.

Not Jiang Mountain, Pu Mountain.

At the same time as Shiguan and Shangqu were talking, Shenlai and Zhong Zhu of Pushan also found that the people under Fuyun Pass were carrying a big banner and galloping.

God came to the same temperament as God, and what he said was of course to go down the mountain to kill demons and save the people. This made Zhong Zhu anxious again, and he pulled for a long time, and finally brought out Gu Heng and the "Divine Rules" to bluff the gods.

God came to be indignant, threw the thistle terrestris bones, muttered and turned around and turned into the ancestral temple, fell asleep, and did not go to patrol the mountain.

Although Zhong Zhu also had the heart to go down the mountain to save the people, one of the divine rules had already stipulated: the gods were not allowed to interfere in the affairs of the human world, and the other was also worried that the gods of the Shennong tribe would take the opportunity to seize the mountain, so they dispelled this idea.

Zhong Zhuxin was worried about the safety of Linjiang County, and patrolled to the northern boundary early the next morning to observe the battle under the mountain.

As expected: this time, the soldiers couldn't hold the chain bridge, and those demons easily captured Linjiang County.

Zhong Zhu wanted to rush down the mountain several times to help, but he dragged back his footsteps, after all, the rules are strict! Breaking twenty-five backbones is not a joke.

More than a month has passed in this way.

On this day, Zhong Zhu and Shenlai patrolled to the northern boundary again, looked at the bottom of Napu Mountain, and when they caught a glimpse of the scene under the mountain, they couldn't help but be surprised and looked at each other.

It turned out that the north side of Pushan was full of resentment, faint and miserable, and it was already 100 zhang high, although it was found earlier, but it was not as steep as today. And under the shroud of resentment, hundreds of people were panning for golden sands and extracting gold, all with yellow faces and thin muscles, ragged clothes, and miserable.

"Master Zhong, look at it! Look at ......" Shenlai's face was full of anger, and he pointed to the north bank of the Wusha River Chain Bridge.

Zhong Zhuding took a closer look, and saw a row of corpse trucks parked on the north bank of the chain bridge, and dozens of soldiers were carrying the corpses back and forth and throwing them into the river. - Needless to say, those people were all smelting for gold, day and night, and dying of fatigue.

When Zhong Zhu saw it, he was sad and said: "The people of Linjiang County under this mountain have really suffered!"

"The people under the mountain have suffered, but they are not allowed to save Lao Tzu, what kind of bullshit is this!" God came to be indignant, "On weekdays, I also received a lot of incense and offerings from the people under the mountain, but when they were in trouble, we mountain gods pretended to be deaf and dumb, no matter what they asked, we were really angry with Lao Tzu." ”

"What you say is reasonable, it's just the affairs of the human world, and it's not our turn to be in the hands of the divine realm! I don't know when the lord of the 'Dragon Horse Divine Spear' will appear?" Zhong Zhu agreed.

"When the master of the 'Dragon Horse Spear' appears, I'm afraid that the people under this mountain will die. Shenlai said angrily, "Master Zhong, this time you don't care about us, Lao Tzu is going down the mountain!"

At the end of the words, God came to swing the iron thistle bones, and as soon as the feet of the cloud sank, he was ready to go down the mountain.

"Don't be reckless!" Zhong Zhu hurriedly grabbed Shenlai's arm and said, "In my opinion, let's go to Nanpiao Mountain first and explain this matter to Gu Ye, if Gu Ye agrees, it's not too late for us to kill the mountain together, what do you think?"

God knew that Zhong Zhu did not approve and it was definitely difficult to go down the mountain, so he muttered: "Just listen to Zhong Ye this time, go to Nanpiao Mountain!"

After a short time, the two gods traveled to Nanpiao Mountain, entered the ancestral temple, and met Gu Heng.

Zhong Zhu recounted the various tragic conditions suffered by the demons occupying Linjiang County and the people of Linjiang County.

Gu Heng listened to it and was silent for a while.

After a while, Shen Lai couldn't help but be silent, and shouted: "Gu Ye, the people of Linjiang County under the mountain are all suffering now!

Gu Heng rolled his eyes slightly, and said in a deep voice: "The people of Linjiang County are suffering, this is all the arrangement of heaven's will, fate is like this, how can we, as gods, change the destiny of heaven? ”

Linjiang County was occupied by that group of demons, it was as miserable as hell, and the people of Li died a lot every day, but I am afraid that before the master of the man appeared, the people of Li would die. Zhong Zhu finally couldn't bear the suffering of the people of Linjiang County, and for the first time expressed his opinion.

Gu Heng didn't expect Zhong Zhu to also be mixed with the winch of the pole, and couldn't help but say angrily: "Even if the people of Linjiang County are all dead, we can't take care of it, this is a divine rule! If the gods are in charge of everything, what else do they want the human world to do? What do they want the human lord to do? This is the mandate of heaven, who dares to disobey?"

"Master Gu, this person is dead, who will come to worship us, who will come to add incense to us?"

It turns out that the Taoism of the immortals not only relies on their own cultivation, but also on the incense of the human world. The more incense the immortal god receives, the higher his deeds and merits, just like the principle of lacquering and gilding utensils: one more layer of lacquer, or one more layer of gold, the vessel will have an extra layer of protection and firmness.

The immortal gods who are worshiped will certainly bless their followers to continue to increase the incense, so the communication between the human world and the immortal god world is on that pillar of incense, which is also the reason why the human world has set up temples, Taoist temples and ancestral halls.

If the immortal god loses the believers in the human world, then he will also lose the meaning of living in the human world, and only by relying on his own penance and diligent cultivation can he achieve the consummation of the Dao Void, but this is ten thousand times more difficult than building a dojo.

That's what God meant!

Gu Heng certainly knew the truth of the communication between man and god, and was silent for a long time and said: "It's not as serious as you say. Even if it is so serious, the affairs of Linjiang County also have a share of the gods of the Shennong clan, and they are not in a hurry, what are you anxious about? If you go down the mountain at will and make a mistake, who can afford this responsibility. ”

Gu Heng's extra-string sound, the meaning of the extra-verbal meaning, Zhong Zhu and Shenlai could naturally understand it, so they bowed their heads and were speechless.

Gu Heng warned again: "Now that the human world is in chaos, the mountains and seas are in chaos, and all kinds of demons are ready to move, His Majesty the Yellow Emperor is using troops in Zhongshan, the victory or defeat is not divided, and the situation is unknown. If you don't listen to me and poke out some kind of basket, the gods will not spare it!"

When the two gods heard this, they became more and more honest.

"Go, guard Pushan, guard against God, and don't get into trouble. Gu Heng said, signaling the two gods to retreat, close their eyes and meditate, and say no more.

Shenlai and Zhong Zhu glanced at each other, feeling very aggrieved, but they didn't dare to say more, so they said goodbye to Gu Heng and returned to Pushan depressed.

As the saying goes: if there is a word, it is long, and if there is no word, it is short.

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it is the grand festival of all ethnic groups in the Wusha River basin - Wuda Festival.

This Uda Festival is like the Spring Festival of the Han people.

According to the custom: on this day, the people should happily hold a grand sacrifice ceremony, such as: sacrifice, offering flowers and fruits, burning candles and incense, performing programs, etc., this is to thank the ancestors for the blessing of the gods, and the other is to pray for the blessings of the coming year.

But this year's "Uda Festival" is different from previous years, every household is clear and cold, there is no movement, and the ancestral halls and temples in various places are also cold and deserted, and the cold is extreme. It turns out that the people in the Wusha River valley have become slaves of the people, and they are all smelting gold day and night, and there is no freedom to speak of.

It was not until the second half of the night that the overseers of the army dozed off and relaxed, and the people of all ethnic groups quietly rushed to the ancestral halls and temples everywhere with their tired bodies to hold sacrificial ceremonies to express their admiration and remembrance of their ancestors.

Because the sacrifice was hasty, there was no decent sacrifice, nothing more than a handful of rice, a few incense candles, and a few bouquets of flowers, but the people's devotion to their ancestors did not change at all.

What are the sacred ancestral gods worshiped by the various ethnic groups in the Wusha River Basin?
