Yin and Yang Realm,
Self-separation of life and death. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
This is a term that only another world should have!
There should be no one in this world who dares to say that he has been to the Yin and Yang Realm, because if he has been, then it means that he is no longer in the world.
Of course, there is another possibility, unless it is some strange person with a strange spell who has the ability to communicate with the void and mysterious world.
Ordinary people in the world can only imagine that world by relying on the descriptions of some supernatural people in Taoism and Buddhism.
The eighteen layers of hell, the Yama of each hall, the black and white impermanence of the soul, the guidance of the bull-headed horse-face, and the judgment of the iron-faced judge, these are all places that ordinary people imagine hell to be.
No matter what it looks like, it can be seen that the so-called yin and yang realm is certainly not the so-called Wuji Yin and Yang of Taoism. Although the Yin and Yang Realm is also a Taoist saying, this Yin and Yang Realm refers to the world and hell, which is naturally the boundary between life and death!
The yang world is naturally the living space of all living beings, whether you are a human or an animal, as long as you still have a breath of air, it means that you are still living in the yang world, and you are a living creature. This is, of course, the daily thinking of ordinary people, and it is also the normal comment of doctors and Taoists in the past.
And the underworld is naturally the destination of the gathering of living souls and deaths, whether you are a human or an animal, as long as you lose your breath, it means that you have gone to the underworld and are a dead creature. Even if you are a living plant and lose your vitality, it is a kind of reincarnation, a kind of reincarnation that has gone through the door of life and death.
No matter who goes to the underworld, in the thinking of Taoists and Buddhists, they all have a common consciousness, that is, they all think that this does not necessarily belong to death. Because, in this underworld reincarnation, there is also a boundary that belongs to abnormal people and is understandable to abnormality, and this is the so-called yin and yang world, the door of life and death.
They all believe that only after truly passing through this yin and yang realm can the souls of people or other spiritual creatures belong to the demarcation realm, and can determine the life and death of each object. Of course, there will be exceptions to this period, or the difference of each object, but there may not be one or two cases of this kind of bizarre thing in the world!
Therefore, after the yin and yang realm, it is truly called the door of life and death.
And it has always been rumored in the rivers and lakes and among the people that the Yin and Yang Realm is somewhere in the human world, because the entrance to hell is in the human world, and it is called Xudu.
Yudu, known as a ghost town!
There have always been people running there, and the most famous one is naturally King Yama. Each of the eighteen halls of hell is a hall, and each person is in charge of a hall.
The Gate of Life and Death is naturally in the first hall, and it is in front of the first hall. Behind the door of life and death is the ghost domain ghost gate, the door of life and death is not the ghost gate, the ghost gate is the ghost domain! The door of life and death is half the yang and half the underworld.
The day is the earth, and the night is the underworld.
Does it mean a balance between the earth and the underworld, or a comparison with day and night?
No matter what!
There is a strange sect in the rivers and lakes, the Hell Gate! There's a strange place in the world, Xudu! Is it hell or hell on earth?
There is an unfathomable ghost emperor in the gates of hell! A person who dares to be the emperor will naturally not be an ordinary person! What's more, the Hell Gate is in Shu, and being able to calmly claim the emperor in Shu can imagine the foundation of the Hell Gate.
And the gate of hell is known as the first gate of the rivers and lakes! Claim to be the Holy Gate!
The rangers on the rivers and lakes are not the strangers in the eyes of ordinary people! They come and go from high to low, soaring through the clouds and mist, calling for wind and rain. They can travel thousands of miles a day, and they can break life and death, maybe the common people regard them as fairies and ghosts!
Shuzhong is the world of the Meng Dynasty, since the end of the Tang Dynasty, the world was in turmoil, Shuzhong was occupied by Wang Jian and established himself as the king, and later Wang Jian established the Shu State, since then Shuzhong and the Central Plains have separated. Later, the royal family of Shuzhong was defeated, and after Meng Zhixiang established the Hou Shu Kingdom, the Hell Gate has been standing in Shuzhong.
As a well-known sect in the rivers and lakes, being able to stand in the divided dynasty shows that it is either serving this dynasty or has an agreement with this imperial city. As a separatist dynasty, where would it compromise with a sect on the rivers and lakes! However, the Gates of Hell have always existed, and they have nothing to do with the two successive dynasties!
There are no local officials appointed by the government even in the capital city, and there is a hell gate here, which means that this place is just self-government, no different from China.
Tian Yinong did not return to the inner altar of Sanssouci Altar, but walked out quickly. He thought of Zhou Yi, who had always been in contact with the outside, because the Styx Altar was the true branch of the Hell Gate with both internal and external affairs, and it was also the location of the Gate of Life and Death.
Zhou Yi has always been known for his ruthless style, although he is not the best among the disciples of the Hell Gate, but because he is a disciple of the ghost mother, and there are several unfathomable brothers and sisters, others generally do not provoke him.
Tian Yinong has been in a relationship with him for decades, and the two of them are inexplicably speculative, and they belong to the dead party in the door. For Zhou Yi to send disciples and arrange for his son to be in the world, he knows everything clearly. And the hell gate doesn't pay much attention to this, so everyone thinks it's normal.
The current master of the sect, the Ghost Emperor Qin Que, used to have a very spicy reputation on the rivers and lakes, but since he took charge of the Hell Gate, he has been very gentle to his disciples. In addition, Qin Que has always focused on cultivation, so almost all of his power is delegated to the deacon altar and the branch altars. In the past twenty years, the disciples of the Hell Gate have secretly come out and do their own things.
Zhou Yi is a person with his own ideas, and he has attracted a large number of people around him, many of whom are elders and protectors of the deacon altar. Tian Yinong knew that he was entrusted by Zhou Yi to disappear last year, and he still doesn't know where people are. There is also the Holy Infant King, the first disciple of the Ghost Mother, who was said to be the first disciple of the Ghost Mother, asked someone to come to the door for help, as the younger brother of the Holy Infant King, Zhou Yi reacted first.
Because although Niu Tou Ma Mian was entrusted by Zhou Yi, there was no evidence in the door, even the people in the door had no way to take him. However, there is another master in the gate, Huo Han, who is also a disciple of the ghost mother, and he is one of the two envoys of the Hell Gate. I went to Lingnan and the Southern Han Kingdom, and I never came back. It is said that Zhou Yi tried his best to bewitch him, so he rushed all the way to Lingnan, and finally ended up with an unknown whereabouts.
Tian Yinong knew that Zhou Yi's methods were more than that, he also intervened in the officialdom of Shuzhong and had contacts with many high-ranking officials in Chengdu. Otherwise, with his son Zhou Qi's skills, how could he easily be the commander of the Yuzhou Mabu Army. Moreover, Zhou Yi also introduced people to Tian Yinong, so that Tian Yinong also intervened in Qianzhou, Sizhou and other places, so that the various medicinal materials and items that Tian Yinong needed were really in demand. And there, the hell gate has not intervened for many years.
Master Su Xipo's sudden exit, Tian Yinong naturally has joys and sorrows, joy is naturally his biggest reliance in the door, he is a person who doesn't even sell the face of the master Qin Que, and the worry is that the master is the easiest to turn his face and deny people. In order to prevent mistakes, Tian Yinong had to come to Zhou Yi early, in case his things outside would make the master unhappy.
When Tian Yinong appeared at the door of life and death, the surroundings were quiet!
In the dimly lit hall of the altar, there was also a man in a blood-red cloak, and this man stood there with his hands in his hands. He is arrogant and cold, his figure looks tall and independent, and his thin figure and long hair that is casually draped show that he is different.
When he saw Tian Yinong, his face actually showed a hint of surprise, glanced at the two respectful men around him, and stared at Tian Yinong again. And those two people were also well-dressed, and they were obviously also the leaders of the Hell Gate, but the two of them were actually frightened when they were looked at by this person!
"It's rare to meet the Lord of the Altar here, I don't know when the Lord of the Altar of Heaven became the Master of the Altar of the Styx Altar of Life and Death?" He looked at Tian Yinong quietly, as if he wanted to find out something from Tian Yinong's embarrassed expression, he didn't know what he meant, but it sounded sarcastic. And he stared at Tian Yinong tightly, his expression was still cold, without a hint of jokes.
Tian Yinong also glanced at the two men beside this person, thinking about the identity of this person, he couldn't help but smile at this person embarrassedly: "King Shura smiled, where is the ability of his subordinates, he will have two altars in the door, but something is coming." I heard that some time ago, the altar master of Zhou went out, and his subordinates asked him to bring a few medicinal herbs, and I wanted to come over to see if he had come back! ā
"Lawless!" This man said coldly, and he didn't know who he was talking about! But people were so frightened that they didn't know what they meant for a while.
He quietly looked at the picture of a hundred ghosts hanging in the hall, his eyes kept changing, his cold expression did not speak, Tian Yinong and the two men on the side did not dare to squeak, and stood solemnly aside, because this person's identity is too special in the Hell Gate.
Tian Yinong slandered Zhou Yi's eighteenth generation ancestor in his heart, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart that his years were not good. I haven't walked around for a long time, and I didn't expect that my master would suddenly come out of the customs, let alone how I would suddenly meet this person.
It turned out that this person was a famous evil star in the Hell Gate, and when he was training on the rivers and lakes back then, he caused a sensation in the Central Plains. It was the most chaotic time of the secession and melee, when he was training, he joined the separatist forces, and leading the troops to battle can be said to be murderous, and later he was called the Shura King Shen Tu, who was the real god killer and ghost king who led the troops out of the Hell Gate.
Although he is not one of the only Taishang elders in the Hell Gate like Tian Yinong's master, the jade-faced Yama Su Xipo, he is also one of the people who became famous earlier than the current Ghost Emperor chasing the Yama King Qin Que.
What's even more important is that after he returned to the gate of hell, his cultivation has made great progress. After retreat and practice, he was recognized by the upper and lower levels of the door. Now he is sitting on the Hell Gate Shura Hell, and he is the Shura King of Shura Hell.
That is one of the only few ghost kings in the Hell Gate today, and like Tian Yinong's master Jade-faced Yama King Su Xipo, he is also the master of the first hall of the underworld. And under each temple of the Hell Gate, there are two or three altars. Therefore, as the owner of a branch altar, although it is only a branch of the main altar, Tian Yinong does not dare to be presumptuous in front of Shen Tu. This Hades, who has several altars under his command, is not a good word, and he does not dare to relax in front of him.
This person rarely comes out to take care of things, and he is also a typical cultivator. But as long as you come out of the outside world, it must be a resolute move, or there will be a major war at the hell gate. Thinking about Zhou Yi's usual heart, and some of his own involvement. Tian Yinong couldn't help but snort in his heart, it's not that there is something wrong with this guy, he was known by Shen Tu to this butcher!
"According to investigation, a few days ago, Su Tao, the blood protector of the main hall, was found on the outskirts of Suizhou City, and his body was separated!" Shen Tu went to look at Tian Yinong quietly, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him: "The Lord of the Tiantan, the Lord of the Zhou Altar and the Protector of Su Tao have always been close to you, don't say that you don't know anything about it!" I don't know what kind of answer the lord of the field will give to this king? ā
Tian Yinong couldn't help but be stunned, he really didn't know about this matter, not to mention that it must be newly obtained, otherwise at least these branches in the door would have gotten the news. You must know that Su Tao, the blood cultivator, is extremely clever in what he has learned, and his skills are not far from his own, and they all belong to the more senior deacons in the sect. What's more, he is also one of the disciples of the Ghost Mother, and he is a rare deliberate cultivation master of the Hell Gate.
Tian Yinong knew that this Su Tao had been making moves in Suizhou, and many industries under his name were in Suizhou. Tian Yinong also got a lot of good things in his hands, some of them still came from the Chengdu Palace, Tian Yinong once reciprocated the favor, but he didn't expect that there would be an accident in Suizhou this time.
Although Su Tao is a member of the deacon altar, he serves as a Dharma protector in Shura Hell, and Shen Tu rarely intervenes in things in ordinary times, and Su Tao's several Dharma protectors are actually in power. Although I don't know what his relationship with Shen Tu is usually, everyone is in the same vein, so it must not be too bad.
Just because he and Zhou Yi of the Styx Altar are brothers, and Zhou Yi and Tian Yinong have an excellent relationship, so Su Tao and Tian Yinong are still very close compared to others. However, when he suddenly heard that something had happened to him, and he didn't even know it, Tian Yinong became nervous.
You must know that if something happens to a disciple in the door, it will generally be investigated by the branch altar and finally reported to the main altar. Of course, if something happens to someone with a position like this, the general altar will immediately report to the ghost emperor, and then the ghost emperor will summon the ghost king or the king of Hades in each hall, as well as the elder protector and even the master of the altar to inform. And this time Su Tao had an accident, as the owner of the altar, Tian Yinong himself didn't know, and a ghost king would personally intervene, Tian Yinong was a little puzzled in his heart.
Either Shen Tu has just learned about this matter and has not yet had time to inform the deacon in the door, or the door master has an idea about himself and has doubts about himself. Tian Yinong felt sweaty in his palms, because the door rules inside the door explained that it was not allowed to have anything to do with the political affairs of Shuzhong. If it's serious, you can deal with it severely, and when it's relaxed, you can know it.
"King Shura! How dare the subordinates hide it, many of the branches in the door now have deacons outside! Lord Zhou Tan and Dharma Protector Su are brothers, and everyone knows that they have always been close. The Styx Altar has always been set up in various states in Shuzhong, and it pays a lot of things for the main altar every year, and it is inevitable that the Lord of the Zhou Altar will have more contact with the outside world! It's just that this Su Protector suddenly had an accident, and his subordinates were too shocked! ā
At this time, the two men finally came back to their senses, and saw that Shen Tu did not squeak after listening to Tian Yinong's words, and his face was not particularly scary. A slightly fat man finally mustered up the courage to say: "The altar owner did not instruct his subordinates to wait when he went out this time, so he must not go too far." What's more, he just took the eight guards around him, but looking at his expression at the time, it seemed to be very sad. The subordinates didn't dare to ask, but later, according to the attendants around the altar owner, it was said that it was because the altar owner's only son in Yuzhou, Zhou Qi, was suddenly killed! Presumably, the altar owner went to Yuzhou! ā
He glanced at his companion with dark skin beside him, he was originally the hall master of the Styx Altar of the Gate of Life and Death, and he usually left him in the Styx Altar when Zhou Yi went out on patrol. His companion is also one of them, and the two have been working together for a long time, so they will naturally understand their intentions.
Huiyi hurriedly said: "King Shura is clear, and the rules of the inner door of this gate are strict. The altar owner has always been strict with his subordinates, and his subordinates dare not ask him about his private affairs. This routine examination of the disciples in the altar has passed, and the altar master has nothing major to do, and generally will not stay in the altar. Either find a place to practice, or go out to the state station. The subordinates and the master of Jiao Tang were ordered to stay in the altar to be in charge of affairs, and the altar master usually went to the deacons of various states to inspect! ā
Looking up at the beams of the hall, the carved beams and paintings looked particularly open and dancing in the dim light. Shen Tu Fei actually closed his eyes gently, and the air in the hall seemed to be quiet for a while.
"Ever heard of the average teaching?"
Suddenly a nonsensical question!
The boiling average teaching in Shuzhong! As long as people are in Shu, not to mention the largest sect in the rivers and lakes, it is impossible not to know the existence of the Average Sect.
If you don't know, some are too fake! Although the Hell Gate has rules that do not allow disciples in the sect to interfere in political affairs, but in Shuzhong, it is the number one faction, where there will be no contact with the outside world, and where there are people who don't know the average teaching!
"I've heard a little!" Tian Yinong replied lightly, after experiencing the coercion of Shen Tu and some calculations in his heart, Tian Yinong's thinking finally followed. Knowing that there was no need to play tricks in front of him, he said calmly: "It is said that all the states in Shuzhong are now making trouble with the average sect, although the sect members do not have too high-level leaders, but they are very popular among the people!" ā
"Go to Yuzhou on business! I've seen a few members of the sect who claim to be average! The one of the two men, Ao Hei, said respectfully: "At that time, the subordinates had completed the task, so I thought in my heart at the time, look at their details, so that I can come back and report it, who knows that after reading it, it will really shock the subordinates!" ā
Shen Tu went to Hetian Yinong couldn't help but look over, Shen Tu went quietly without squeaking, and the man hurriedly continued: "It is a small village next to the county seat, and the landlords in the village have little to do with it, but there is a lot of property, but under the leadership of the two average sect members, that group of ordinary people unexpectedly hanged this usually stingy and vicious landlord, and divided the landlord's land and property!" ā
"The county government doesn't care if it's fast! There are still very few such things in Shuzhong, what is the difference between this and the cottage king who occupies the mountain as the king! Although killing the rich and helping the poor, isn't it chaotic! Tian Yinong heard it for the first time, and couldn't help but speak out.
This man had a slight embarrassment on his face, he was one of the two protectors of the Styx Altar, and the people on the rivers and lakes were called Shanxiao Zhende. Although he was careful to deal with it in front of two people, he himself was very famous in the rivers and lakes. is his companion Jiao Zan, who is also known as the water spirit on the rivers and lakes, and he is generally the hall master of the Styx Altar of Life and Death.
He saw that Shen Tu didn't care, so he said to Tian Yinong: "My subordinates thought the same way at the time, and the strange thing is that it was in the back!" After helping the common people divide the landlord's property, they did not leave the village, but lived in the village. Later, they had another companion, but it was a scholar, who calmed the uneasiness of the common people, and secretly went from house to house and told them many truths. It wasn't peaceful in the village that night, and sure enough, something big happened again! ā
He saw that no one had the intention of interjecting, so he continued: "The landlord had a concubine who escaped and found the county catcher, and that night a dozen or so catchers entered the village and surrounded the small village, and his subordinates were thinking about whether to make a move!" Who knew that the two average sect members had already prepared, and let the companion who read later inform the people in the village early. Later, the subordinates learned that they told the people that now that the average sect has occupied the county seat, no one will come to trouble everyone, and everyone just needs to keep those poor people. In the future, when the world is peaceful, this land will belong to the common people. As long as everyone maintains the average education in the county, the common people can enjoy the fact that everyone has land and food. ā
He seemed to be recalling the events of that time, his face and eyes were full of surprise, and he said, "What I didn't expect was that many people believed their words. The catchers who arrived in the village that night knocked on the doors of the people, but they never came out! This man, Zhen De's voice was a little cold, and he looked at everyone and said quietly: "My subordinates never thought that these usually timid and defenseless ordinary people would actually kill more than ten people for the so-called land and property!" ā
"The power of demagogy!" Shen Tu Fu looked at this man, then looked at Tian Yinong and said: "If the average sect is preached in this way, it will be terrible, and Shuzhong will fall into their hands soon!" Although this sect does not involve political affairs, it has both the average teaching, and it develops on the territory of this sect, and the disciples in the sect need to be cautious and pay attention to the dynamics at any time! ā
Seeing that Shen Tu was no longer squeaking, Zhen De continued: "Sure enough, no one in the county came on the second day, because the magistrates in the county all ran away, and the average teaching was agitated everywhere, and they were everywhere!" It's that this county town is occupied by people who teach averagely! This man Zhen De actually said helplessly in his language: "The subordinates mentioned it to the altar master when they came back, presumably the altar master has not mentioned it to the deacon in the door and the ghost emperor." ā
"Don't be nervous! The development of the average religion in Shuzhong is still short, although the momentum is huge, it is because they do treat the people very well. Knowing that the other side will not be defeated in a hundred battles, the master of the door has learned about this, so he will invite everyone to come out! Shen Tu said lightly.
As if these things had nothing to do with him, seeing that the three of them were a little cautious, Fang spoke again: "The sect master has gone to Yuzhou in person, and the average sectarian over there is said to have gone from all over there to the city. What's more, because of their momentum for some reason, they just got a news that is not yet certain! ā
