Chapter 66, the mountain god

Qingshan Village is built because it is backed by Daqingshan, so the land temple in Qingshan Village is also a mountain temple, in the past, the incense of the mountain temple was very prosperous, and now the feudal superstition is broken, and no one among the villagers has come to the mountain temple to incense. The original solemn mountain temple is now dilapidated, leaving only some broken bricks and tiles, the pillars at the entrance of the temple are crookedly supported, as if a gust of wind can push down, the statue of the mountain god in the temple can no longer see its original face, and the roof is only a few rotten beams. Except for some special ceremonies, the villagers almost never come to the mountain temple.

After arriving at the mountain temple, Liu Xianxian, who was leading the way in front, put the oil lamp in his hand on the ground, and the faintly flickering candle flame revealed an eerie and strange atmosphere.

After lighting the incense candles, start reporting to the temple!

"Worship the mountain god!" As Liu Zhen's long voice came, everyone fell to the ground.

"Goodbye!" "Three bows!"

After three bows, Liu Xian elongated his voice and shouted: "Pick up ----- soul!"

Then, after Zhao Yuanjun, who was holding the soul-attracting sail, took the sail backwards, he began to call out for his son's soul: "Son, go home with Dad!" Everyone was solemn, only Zhao Yuanjun's voice calling out for his son sounded one after another, gloomy and desolate!

Xuanyuan Feng approached slightly, and his yin and yang eyes opened.

Suddenly, Xuanyuan Feng saw a cloud of black gas floating out of the mountain temple, and slowly the black gas manifested into an old man in black. It's not Zhao Manhai, the eldest son of the Zhao family. Seeing the old man manifested in the mountain temple, Xuanyuan Feng was stunned. And the old man in black seemed to have noticed that Xuanyuan Feng could see him, and looked over with a frown.

I saw that the old man in black had a gloomy face, and there was a trace of sadness in his deep eyes. That's right, it's melancholy! After a deep glance at Xuanyuan Feng, the old man was about to turn around and leave. "This old man, please go slowly!" At this time, the people of the Zhao family had already finished the ceremony and left the mountain temple and walked back, so Xuanyuan Feng had no worries and shouted directly.

Hearing Xuanyuan Feng calling him, the old man in black slowly stood still, looked at Xuanyuan Feng and said in a deep voice: "Little doll, do you know who I am, aren't you afraid of me?" "Hello old man, my name is Xuanyuan Feng, you should be the mountain god here, right?" Xuanyuan Feng didn't have any worries, and asked directly, "Oh, since you know that I am the mountain god, you still dare to call me, aren't you afraid that I will take you away?" The old man frowned and said in an unkind tone, " Hehe, Lord Mountain God, I haven't done anything bad, there are rules in the underworld, you won't accept people for no reason" Xuanyuan Feng said with a smile, in fact, what he thought in his heart was that I am an immortal cultivator, not an ordinary immortal cultivator, just with my divine soul after being fused by the source point of the universe, it is estimated that the king of Hades will not be able to take me away.

"Little doll, a little bold, what's the matter with calling me down?" The old man didn't pretend anymore, in fact, he had already seen that Xuanyuan Feng was not an ordinary person, and he, as the mountain god here, couldn't see through this person's soul, so he asked directly, "It's really something to ask the mountain god for advice!" Xuanyuan Feng looked straight, looked at the old man with blazing eyes and said: "Lord Mountain God, since you can appear here, it proves that the legend of Qingshan Village is true, after a person dies, the soul will return to the mountain temple first, and then take the soul home when the family of the deceased reports to the temple." Speaking of this, Xuanyuan Feng's words changed: "But today, Zhao Yuanjun's family came to pick up Zhao Manhai's soul, why didn't I see the soul appear?"

It seemed to know that Xuanyuan Feng would ask this question, the old man sighed slightly and said: "After a person dies, it is true that he must return to the local mountain temple first, but it is not a generalization, there are two situations of living death, one is a normal death, and the soul envoy will go to the scene to hook the soul; If you don't want to take the initiative to report to work, the soul envoy will also lock him up with the breath of the yin soul, unless the obsession is too heavy and turns into a powerful ghost, because the cause and effect of these powerful ghosts are too heavy, and it is difficult to catch it in the underworld, so you can only resolve the obsession with the cause and effect!"

Hearing the old man say this, Xuanyuan Feng couldn't help but stare at him, and asked: "Zhao Manhai was planted in a ditch and fell to his death, which is an unnatural death, could it be that his soul turned into a ghost? Xuanyuan Feng asked suspiciously, "It's not only the Yin Cha who can detain the souls, but also other powerful ghosts who can detain the Yin Souls, and some people with advanced Taoist practices can also detain the Yin Souls, such as the Taoist priests of Maoshan and the monks who have attained the Dao, not to mention those spirits who have become essences." ”

"But what is their intention in detaining Zhao Manhai's soul?" Xuanyuan Feng couldn't help but be a little puzzled, and suddenly remembered the old seventh master and Zhao Ji'an, who had just passed away a few days ago, "Lord Mountain God, have the souls of the old seventh master and Zhao Ji'an, who just passed away recently, returned to the mountain temple?" The old man glanced at Xuanyuan Feng solemnly, and said in a deep voice: "This is also something I am worried about, not only the souls of the old seventh master and Zhao Ji'an have not returned to the mountain temple, but even the entire Qingshan Town under my jurisdiction has many souls who have disappeared for no reason and have not returned to the mountain temple. ”

It seems that the problem is a bit serious!

"And the most serious thing is the soul of the old seventh master, originally the old seventh master did good deeds all his life, acted fairly, and was highly respected. should be able to live to be 100 years old, and there are still a few years before his yang life ends, but he died without illness. Knowing that the old seventh master passed away, the city god of this county personally sent Yin to pick him up, but instead of receiving the old seventh master, he returned injured and returned, and he didn't even see the other party's face, and the soul of the old seventh master was also detained. The mountain god sighed deeply.

"I don't know what the mountain god plans next?" After listening to the mountain god's explanation, Xuanyuan Feng also felt very heavy, if the situation was allowed to develop uncontrollably, it would be fatal to the entire Qingshan Village, after all, many of Xuanyuan Feng's relatives and friends were from Qingshan Village, and he himself was also a native of Qingshan Village. When the villagers of Qingshan Village cannot return to the underworld after a hundred years, let alone reincarnation, it is a question of whether they can survive or not, and then they will really be scattered! Even if they are not scattered, they will become tools in the hands of people with intentions.

Xuanyuan Feng's worries and concerns, the mountain god naturally saw it in his eyes. After hearing Xuanyuan Feng's question, the mountain god sighed slightly and said: "This matter can be big or small, as a mountain god can not protect the local people, the old man is to blame, but compared to the order of reincarnation, the old man must investigate this matter even if his soul is scattered, but it is never enough to deal with this matter alone, so the old man needs to return to the underworld and report the situation here to the underworld in detail." After saying this, the mountain god looked at Xuanyuan Feng with burning eyes.
