"Sue the temple" is a unique funeral custom in the area of Macheng Prefecture, that is, after the death of the person to the temple "immortals" to inform the "immortals" in the temple, the birth of the death, the "immortals" in the temple is the best witness. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The route of the "temple to the temple" starts from the main house, walks along the streets and alleys, and must go to all the places where there are temples, go around a large circle, and finally place the deceased's spiritual seat in the selected temple.

There is a Wan'an Temple in the eastern suburbs of Macheng Mansion, although the incense in it is not too vigorous, but because of the benevolence and kindness of the presiding master, Wan'an Temple has become the main place of the Macheng Mansion Temple, and the spiritual seat of Kang Zhixun and his wife will be placed in Wan'an Temple.

The members of the "sue temple" are limited to the nephews and nephews in the next life, and then send one or two respected elders to accompany them to witness, Kang Yan invited the patriarch and the third master to go together, she wants to take this opportunity to implement the matter of the succession to the end, and she doesn't want to drag her parents to the ground because of this matter.

As soon as noon passed, the Kang family wore white filial piety clothes and carried a "mourning stick" with the children and nephews led by Kang Dalang, and followed Zhao Rui to invite the "blowing" team to start walking along the temple.

Kang Yan had already promised to ask Kang Erlang to hold the spiritual position of Kang Zhixun and his wife in the morning, and it was Kang Erlang and his wife who were at the forefront, and Kang Erlang was holding the spiritual position of Kang Zhixun and his wife in his arms, followed by Kang Yan, who could stand in this position as Kang Zhixun's only daughter, and behind them were the Kang family headed by Kang Dalang, according to the ranking.

Everyone silently followed behind the blowing team, and walked for half an hour before arriving at Wan'an Temple, Wan'an Temple is not big but full of trees, it is a forest of trees, and most of them are used to place the spiritual position, so there is always a gloomy atmosphere in the temple.

The presiding officer of Wan'an Temple led a group of novices to wait at the gate of the temple, and after reciting the scriptures of the souls of the dead, he led the people to the apse dedicated to the spiritual seat of the deceased.

The apse is very large, due to the special placement of the spiritual seat, the apse has built a lot of small Buddha shrines, a Buddha shrine is placed in one or two spiritual months, the host pointed to an empty Buddha shrine in the northeast corner and said: "Please place the deceased here, my Buddha will bless it with eternal peace." ”

The hall was peaceful, but Kang Yan heard a mocking laughter, she looked around and saw that everyone's faces were the same, so she reacted to the source of the laughter, and asked helplessly in her heart, "What are you laughing at?" ”

Ling Jing's slightly sarcastic voice sounded in her ears: "I laugh that the Buddha is too busy and may not have time to bless everyone." ”

Kang Yan didn't have the heart to debate the Buddha's time with him, and she was also very uncomfortable with this way of communication, for fear that others would see her strangeness, "Are you sure I'm the only one who hears you?" ”

"Put a hundred hearts, and no one else will hear it." Ling Jing assured.

Kang Yan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but she was still a little uneasy in her heart, and couldn't help but repeat it again: "What I just said is fine, right?" Are you sure you can help me get what I want? Not this time, I really have no way out. ”

Ling Jing's voice was a little impatient, "Anyway, you have no way out, a dead horse should be a live horse doctor, or do you have a better way now?" ”

Kang Yan was silent, she chose to believe Ling Jing because she had no other way, take a gamble, the worst result was that Kang Erlang would succeed her, and in the case that she already knew the outcome of her previous life, she could only try her best to change the things that followed.

After thinking about this, Kang Yan no longer paid attention to this guy named Ling Jing, and watched Kang Erlang walk to the Buddha shrine with the spiritual seat of Kang Zhixun and his wife, and placed the spiritual seat on the Buddhist shrine.

Kang Erlang was just about to take a step back and prepare to salute, when he saw the spiritual position that had just been placed fall down with a "bang", and a sudden sound in such a quiet environment made everyone's hearts skip a beat.

Kang Erlang's face turned red with coaxing, and he quickly looked around at everyone's faces and explained a little stumblingly: "I let go when I was stable." ”

Regardless of whether it is a happy event, the psychology of the world is the same, I hope everything goes smoothly, but whenever something is not smooth in the process, people will be easy to think more, for example, at this moment, the spiritual position that has been put in place suddenly falls, and everyone begins to have some bad premonitions in their hearts.

The patriarch was silent for a moment and said, "Erlang, be careful, let it go again." "

Kang Erlang nervously rubbed his hands, helped up the spiritual position and put it back in place, in order to be safe, his hand held for a while before letting go, but the accident happened again, as soon as his hand left, the two spiritual positions fell down at the same time.

The hall was quiet, and a strange feeling rose in everyone's hearts, the patriarch's face became solemn, and the presiding master standing next to him was busy chanting: Amitabha.

The youngest Xiao Shi suddenly cried out with a "wow" wow, "My mother said that the second uncle, the second aunt has become a ghost, and the ghost has appeared, ah, I want to find my mother, I am afraid." ”

Xiao Shi is already eight years old, and he should be the age of sensibility, but he shouted out rude words on such an occasion, which made the face of the third old lady, a grandfather, very unsightly, and he reprimanded Xiao Shi in a low voice: "What nonsense, shut up." ”

Xiao Shi was spoiled by his mother on weekdays, and he was not afraid of the third old lady, but when he heard his scolding, he cried even louder, and the third old lady had no choice but to ask a little novice to take him out first.

"Why don't you let Erlang let it go again." Thinking of the instructions of the old woman at home when he came, the third old lady asked the patriarch tentatively, but he was also a little uneasy in his heart, the thing in the morning was that Shiro framed Erlang, but now it is in full view, no one has done anything, is it really the second and the second family who have not been able to manifest themselves?

The patriarch hesitated and nodded.

Kang Erlang's forehead had begun to appear bean-sized beads of sweat, this time he looked carefully at the Buddhist shrine, there was no dust at all, and he swept it with his sleeve before carefully putting the spiritual position up, but he still heard a bang, and the spiritual position fell down again.

Kang Erlang's nerves completely collapsed, he squatted on the ground, and muttered to himself: "It must be the second uncle, the second aunt has appeared." ”

"Amitabha," the presiding master recited the Buddha's horn before saying, "Maybe it is really the manifestation of the deceased, the old man has also encountered this kind of thing before, and the deceased has unfulfilled wishes or other instructions, and refuses to take place." ”

Speaking of unfulfilled wishes, the patriarch looked at Kang Yan, and Kang Yan looked sad, "The only thing my father and mother are worried about is my future life, I am afraid that my future brothers will not be able to get along, and I am afraid that his hard-earned family business will be in vain." ”

This means that Kang Zhixun and his wife are worried that the heir of the step-child will not be able to treat their only daughter well, looking at the thin and thin girl, the patriarch has some faith in his heart, maybe it is really the couple who wants to choose the successor by themselves.

"What now? Patriarch, give me an idea. The third old man whispered, not daring to mention the words of letting Kang Erlang try again.

"Now it seems that the Zhixun couple wants to choose their own heirs, but the only way to do this is to let the Kang family's qualified children and nephews take turns to step forward to place the spiritual position, if it can be stabilized, it is the heir chosen by the Zhixun couple, what do you think?" The patriarch thought for a moment before saying.

As soon as these words came out, the hall became even quieter, Kang Yan lowered her eyebrows, and replied, "Everything is subject to the arrangement of my uncle." ”

The third old lady snorted and didn't speak, if all the children and nephews participated, it means that his grandson also has the opportunity to pass on to Kang Zhixun, which is much more cost-effective than him getting the ancestral house, and if his grandson passes to Kang Zhixun, the ancestral house of Kangjia Village is still the long house, in other words, it is his grandson's, isn't his grandson's is his, they can easily get the ancestral house in the third room, which is much more cost-effective than supporting the old family, and his old man still calculates this account clearly.

The third old lady didn't speak, and Kang Zhixun's daughter Kang Yan didn't have an opinion, as the patriarch, she no longer needed to ask other juniors, "Okay, let's start with Qilang, Qilang, you go and place the spiritual seat of your second uncle and second aunt first." ”
