Chapter 64: Dreams
"Where is this?"
Zheng Weimin opened his eyes and looked around.
He was stunned to find that he had returned to the Yang World.
The sun is blazing overhead, the sun is shining, the sky is blue, and the clouds are blooming.
Not far in front of you, there is a temple with a flourishing incense, and the three words 'City God Temple' are written on the plaque.
This City God Temple is not strange, but what surprises Zheng Weimin the most is the environment around this temple.
Antique house, pedestrians in ancient robes......
It looks like it's ancient!
"The mana of King Yama is so powerful that it directly sent me to ancient times?"
Zheng Weimin looked shocked.
But at this moment, his body trembled suddenly, and there was a blank look in his eyes.
However, he soon regained his clarity, and the surprise on his face disappeared, and he regained his calm.
"Here, it is the Ming Dynasty, Kyoto Yingtianfu."
"I, who was the prince of the Ming Dynasty during my lifetime, was pardoned and named the city god after my death, and now I am the god of the city god of Yingtianfu."
Zheng Weimin muttered to himself, turned into a streamer, flew into the City God Temple in front of him, and got into the statue of the god in the temple.
After that, he stayed inside the idol and began to perform his duties as a city god.
The responsibilities of the Chenghuang are not complicated.
Sit in the City God Temple, guide the direction of the newly dead ghosts in the jurisdiction of Ying Tianfu, guide them to the City God Temple, and go to the underworld through the dark passage in the temple.
If there is a ghost who is obsessed with the yang world and does not want to go to the underworld, he will send his subordinate ghosts to forcibly detain him and take him to the underworld.
It is especially important that the ghosts in the jurisdiction should not be allowed to stay in the Yang World for more than seven days and their souls will be scattered, and if they are violated, they will be severely punished by the Yin Law of the Underworld.
If there are powerful ghosts and demons in the jurisdiction, they will send Yin soldiers to travel to the gods, and even go out in person to surrender and eradicate them.
As for the prayers of those pilgrims...... Just ignore it.
Come to my city god temple to pray for a son to ask for marriage, it's funny.
Time passed, day after day, year after year, and decades passed in the blink of an eye.
Zheng Weimin has been conscientiously performing his duties as a city god and has never made a mistake.
Soon, the time came to the end of the Ming Dynasty.
Li Zicheng's army invaded Yingtianfu.
After these so-called rebels entered the city, they were like bandits, bloodthirsty and cruel, burning and looting everywhere, and directly committing atrocities against women on the streets, which is heinous.
The whole city has become a hell on earth.
Zheng Weimin was the most jealous and hateful in his life, and when he saw this, he was immediately furious, and he raised his hand to kill all those bandits.
He is now the Venerable of the City God, his divine power is incomparable, and the mortal army is in his eyes, but the ants can wipe it out with a snap of his fingers.
However, after a pause, he put down his raised hand again.
There was a sigh.
"I am the god of the Yin Division, and I can't make a random move on the mortals of the Yang World."
The law of Yin Si stipulates that the city god who is stationed in the yang world can take action to subdue the powerful ghosts and demons in the jurisdiction, but he must not attack ordinary mortals.
The two worlds of yin and yang, there is order for each other, and the god of yin and yin cannot interfere with the yang world.
We can only watch the atrocities of those bandits.
"After this battle, I will die."
He muttered to himself in his heart, pinched his fingers, used his supernatural powers, and began to calculate the heavenly opportunities of the future generations.
Although the calculation is not very clear, the general trend is still in the context, and you can still get a little idea of it.
"What? After the fall of the Ming Dynasty, it was a foreign race that entered the Central Plains?"
The results of the calculation surprised him.
I'm in Eastern Xia, and I'm going to be dominated by a foreign race? The people of Dongxia are going to become slaves of foreign races?
This made it really difficult for him, who loved Dongxia deeply, to accept.
Raise your hand and want to change all that.
But after hesitating, he put his hand down again.
"I am the god of the underworld, and I cannot interfere with the yang world."
With tears in his eyes, he continued to choose to watch.
At this time, a group of bandits rushed into his former home.
Several of his sons and a dozen grandsons went to meet the enemy, but they were outnumbered, and one by one they died under the bandit sabers and fell in a pool of blood.
The female dependents in the backyard committed suicide by throwing themselves into the well to avoid humiliation.
"My son, my grandson, ahhhh
Zheng Weimin roared like crazy, his eyes cracked, and his tears mixed with blood, turning into bloody tears.
Clenched into fists, nails digging deep into the flesh.
"I am the Yin God, I am the God, the God, the God!"
"This is, God ...... heart"
The surrounding picture shattered.
Zheng Weimin woke up from a dream and found that he was still sitting in the judge's hall.
"It turns out that it's all fake!"
Zheng Weimin muttered, wiping the tears from the corners of his eyes, feeling like a world away and dreaming for a thousand years.
Everything in that dream is too real, as if he really was a city god for decades in the late Ming Dynasty.
The rest of the people in the hall also gradually woke up, with tears in the corners of their eyes.
There were also some people with a somewhat gloomy expression.
In their dreams, they broke the law of the underworld and failed the test.
"If you don't pass, go back." Bao Zheng, the king of Yama, said.
After those who failed the test stepped back, he looked at the rest of the people and frowned slightly.
"There are only forty or so, which is a bit small, but I would rather lack than abuse, I can only wait for the ghost people in the underworld to be selected a few more times."
After some thoughts, he looked at the rest of the people and said, "Very good, if you can stick to your principles and follow the Yin law, you already have the qualifications to become a Yin God, congratulations to everyone, in the future, we will be colleagues."
"One thing, you must be prepared in your hearts, your territory is not within Eastern Xia, but outside Eastern Xia."
His Majesty the Son of Yin Tianzi has mercy on the people of the world and cannot bear it, so he specially sends down a favor and allows the souls of foreign countries to come to the underworld, so as not to stay in the yang world and end up scattered."
"You and others are going to go to the outside of the territory to take up their duties, build the City God Temple, and guide the souls of foreign countries to come to the underworld."
His Highness's people looked at each other when they listened.
Going to a foreign country to be a city god? Has the business of the prefecture been extended abroad?
Zheng Weimin's face was also a little strange, and after thinking about it, he asked, "Lord Yama, in foreign countries, is there no world of the dead like my underworld?"
Bao Zheng shook his head slightly.
"I don't know very much about extraterritorial matters, maybe His Majesty the Yin Tianzi knows a thing or two."
He continued: "The reason why I am telling you this is that I want you to be prepared, and second, I want to tell you something."
"Within my Eastern Xia, the god of the Yin Division, cannot arbitrarily attack the mortals of the Yang world and interfere with the order of the Yang world, but outside of the Eastern Xia, there is no such provision at present."
"If you see something that is not pleasing to the eye, you can just beat it to death."
"When I first arrived, if I encountered a provocation, I immediately used the momentum of thunder to calm everything down, so as to establish the power of my underworld......"
