Chapter 596: Open Your Eyes!
Chenghuang, also known as Chenghuangye, in the religious culture of Chinese history, the status is extremely respected, even now, there are many Chenghuang temples in various places, and the incense is absolutely prosperous.
He is a bit similar to a god who guards a city, according to the scope of duties, Zhou Ze is a ghost difference, a bit like the director of the police station in the underworld, the head catcher is the director, and the city god is the level of the county magistrate or even the mayor.
Because the ancient cities were also divided into large and small, the sphere of influence of the city god will naturally change and be different because of this, and the smaller ones, such as the mayor on the grassland, actually have not many people who can manage them.
The larger one is the current administration of the Gyeonggi Stronghold, which is infinitely close to the status of a prince.
Lao Dao took the three of them to visit the City God Temple in Tongcheng, and at first Lao Dao was worried that the three of them would find it boring.
But the three of them looked serious and solemn, and even when they bowed, they were extremely serious and rigorous.
For a long time, Chinese people worship when they see the temple anyway, it seems that they worship a lot, but how sincere they are, it is really impossible to say, and therefore, the posture of worshipping God and Buddha is also strange, in short, how comfortable they are, how to get used to how to come.
The postures of these three people are coherent and neat, and there is a sense of solemnity, which really makes the eyes of the surrounding pilgrims shine.
Lao Dao thought that this couple finally picked up his tail after coming to the City God Temple, and he was still a little proud of his choice.
As everyone knows,
Although the three of them are bowing, they are not to please anyone, but they are really paying tribute and remembering.
That's right
Remember.
Because Lao Dao didn't know that in the Yin Si sequence, there was no Chenghuang for a long time.
Thousands of years ago, after the disappearance of the last generation of Taishan Mansion Emperor, the Ten Palaces of Yama rose up, evolved peacefully, and established the current Yin Division.
Although there were also people in hell who resisted and opposed, they were all quickly extinguished, however, most of the city gods in the yang world were thinking of Taishan Mansion and did not obey the jurisdiction of the Yin Division.
After that, it was the countermeasure of the Yin Division, and the Chenghuang was either suppressed or exiled, and in the subsequent Yin Division, this was not set up directly.
Although the sun is still prosperous,
But in the yin,
It's a different weather and pattern.
The reason for this situation is also because the city gods everywhere are all canonized by local loyal people or fierce generals who died in battle, and what flows in their bones is the blood of upright and unyielding.
After the visit,
Gou Xin bought incense and prepared to make offerings.
But at this moment, there was a creaking sound from the ceiling.
Gou Xin raised his head and looked up,
I saw three fat-headed and big-eared rats above, faintly glowing red, jumping on the beams of the house, while the pilgrims below were unaware.
Seeing this,
smiled,
This is the Blessing Mouse,
It is auspicious to see it.
The temple is prosperous, the incense is prosperous, and the rats here are naturally fat and big-eared, and they are contaminated with the smell of incense, and the blessed people can see it.
Gou Xin took out a handful of candy from his bosom and quietly placed it in a corner behind the idol where not many people were paying attention.
When the old Taoist saw that they were paying homage, he was happy to be idle and went to a middle-aged Taoist priest who set up a stall in the temple to chat with Kan Dashan.
In front of the middle-aged Taoist priest was a fortune-telling stall and a basket of fruits, on which was marked a sign that read "Shakya Fruit".
Just because this fruit looks like the lines on the top of the head of a Buddha statue.
This thing, Lao Dao knows, the scientific name is actually custard, it is a tropical fruit, but it can also be picked in the mountains, and it is a wild fruit among the local population.
The authentic custard apples are actually quite delicious, the flesh is sweet and delicious, and it is milky white, but the old Tao knows that the custard apples here must be picked in the wild, and the fruits in this basket will definitely not be very delicious due to the climate, water and soil.
"Do you want to eat?"
The middle-aged Taoist asked the old Taoist.
"Pretty expensive, right?"
Lao Dao asked.
"It's fine."
The price is actually marked, but it is not cheap.
"Is it sweet?" Lao Dao asked.
"If it's not sweet, you won't take money."
The middle-aged Taoist priest replied with a smile.
"Okay, I'll take it away if it's not sweet."
"............" middle-aged Taoist priest.
Fortunately, at this time, a pilgrim came to unsign with a stick.
There is a sign holder in front of the temple, and it is written on it to ask for 1 yuan to sign and unsign.
Therefore, there are really a lot of people who come to shake the stick, but they just think it is cheap, and they don't shake it.
The middle-aged Taoist priest said a lot of words in the clouds, there must be blessings and warnings in them, in short, it makes people feel like that.
Wait until the end of the unsigning,
The middle-aged Taoist took out a red notebook,
Reciting the immeasurable Heavenly Venerable,
"How much is a mind, it doesn't matter how much."
This is naturally asking for a little incense money, which can be regarded as a proper meaning.
The pilgrim smiled and took the notebook, then froze.
There are rows of names on it, and behind them are the number of donations, and when you glance at it, there is no one less than a hundred!
There are even thousands, even tens of thousands!
The pilgrim was a little hesitant, but he felt embarrassed to give less, so he could only take out another one hundred as the minimum consumption and sign his name.
The middle-aged Taoist priest took the money and took the book back.
Lao Dao witnessed the whole process on the side, this routine is really good, but it's a pity that it's all left over from his play, just to have fun, and he didn't say anything, and when he saw that they went out, he went out to prepare to find them.
When the three of them left the main hall to see the stone tablet,
The three rats that had been on the beams of the house scurried down and began to nibble on the sugar.
They eat quickly and have much sharper teeth than the teeth of a regular mouse.
After eating, he ran up again.
The three of them looked at the stele outside, Xiao Bai stood behind Gou Xin, and Xiao Hei looked at the old Tao who was still in the main hall.
"Don't worry, he's a living man."
Gou Xin stretched out his hand to stop Xiao Hei, who was about to speak, looking very confident.
He's really been smooth sailing in the past few years,
No matter what happens,
No matter who you meet,
None of them are invincible!
Xiao Hei nodded, and was not ready to say anything.
After the three of them visited the City God Temple, they were about to leave, and they motioned to Xiaobai to call the tour guide sent by the bookstore.
When Lao Dao came out before, he saw that they were admiring the inscription, so he simply took the time to go to the toilet and put some water, and accidentally dropped the rune paper hidden in the crotch when he released the water.
It didn't fall into the urine, it just fell to the ground, but the toilet tiles were full of water, and the rune paper was mostly wet.
It's impossible to stuff back into your crotch, although Lao Dao is not as clean as his boss, but he is not so heavy.
I could only shake my head and sigh, pick up the rune paper, and after walking out of the bathroom, I threw it on the ground casually, and I couldn't let the rune paper be thrown into the toilet.
The wind is also quite strong today, and the rune paper is directly blown away by the wind.
The three of them were waiting at the gate of the main hall, since Zhou Ze arranged it like this, Gou Xin seemed to be willing to let Lao Dao take him around, and after Lao Dao came over, the two began to discuss where to go to the next attraction.
And at this time,
What everyone present didn't notice was that
Above the sculpture of the City God,
There is a woman's face slowly emerging,
Underneath the woman's face, there seems to be a darker face, which has been resisting, but there is no way to break free from the shackles of the woman.
"Lost your temple body and came to rob me!"
The man's voice came from the idol, but the pilgrims around were unaware.
At this time, Xiao Hei and Xiaobai, who were standing outside the main hall, raised their heads together and looked inside.
"What's wrong?"
Gou Xin asked.
"There seems to be some fluctuation."
Xiaobai replied.
"It's okay, this is normal, although Yin Si's clearance that year suppressed most of the city gods, there are always some fish that slip through the net, and it is not easy for everyone."
After that,
Gou Xin bowed to the door of the main hall again.
The little black and white behind him also bowed down together,
This is a bit like Qianlong also erected a monument to the anti-Qing heroes of the year.
Even if everyone is eating with the rice bowl of Yin Si now,
In my heart, I will still respect the heroes who still dared to rebel against the tide of the times.
And at this time in the statue of the god in the temple,
A woman's voice came:
"Your temple body? And keep your eyes open and take a closer look, in the Yin Division, but there is still your identity tablet?
is nothing more than a rat under the countercurrent of the year,
The more heroic the others, the more cowardly you appear.
And what's the use of keeping these incense breaths?
Why don't you give it to me! ”
Women actually have the absolute upper hand in the stalemate, but it is not easy to refine a City God.
And at this time,
The three rats seemed to be full of food and began to move, two of them bit the beams of the house, and actually directly bit off the thread on the top, and the many banners that were originally hung on the top fell directly on the body of the Chenghuang sculpture.
Time
The two human faces on the Buddha statue seem to be suppressed together and no longer appear.
A catastrophe seems to have been eliminated at this time.
"Let's go, let's go to the next place."
After the worship was over, Gou Xin said to Lao Dao.
"Cheng, the car is outside, let's go."
Lao Dao also nodded, the City God Temple is so big, they have been playing for so long, it is beyond Lao Dao's expectations.
But at this time,
The middle-aged Taoist walked out yawning, stretched, twisted his body, and the banner fell, and he saw it, and planned to call someone to come and hang it back again tomorrow morning;
However, when he bent down, he saw a piece of talisman paper on the ground.
"Huh."
The middle-aged Taoist picked up the rune paper,
In line with the principle of non-waste,
It was delivered directly to the incense burner in front of the statue and was ready to be burned by itself.
The rune paper quickly burned,
When the middle-aged Taoist was about to sit back,
The whole person was immediately stunned,
Because of the banners that originally fell above and covered the sculpture,
Suddenly, they also burned together inexplicably.
"Mom, it's on fire, it's on fire, get a fire extinguisher, get a fire extinguisher!"
The middle-aged Taoist shouted.
And the sculpture of the city god who originally sat there motionless for many years,
I opened my eyes suddenly!
