Chapter 218: The Way to Hades
The things in that courtyard were incredible, glittering gold bills, silver ingots, and a carriage, drawn by two tall horses, with well-proportioned bodies, fat and strong, with red hair like satin, eyes like hanging bells, and knees that wanted to be round and open. The ears want to be close and erect, small and thick. This is the BMW Liangju mentioned in the book, and I didn't expect that the BMW Liangju mentioned in the book would be seen here.
At this time, Zheng Tianbao smiled and said, "Senior brother, look at the two horses that senior brother tied are okay, right?" ”
I said, "Senior brother, you are really amazing, I can't imagine that you can use sorghum to make such a handsome horse." ”
Zheng Tianbao smiled and said: "These things, in the eyes of ordinary people, are just illusory, have their form but not reality, have no spiritual sense, do not enter reincarnation, and will disappear soon." ”
As he spoke, he led me into the small courtyard, and said as he walked: "Senior brother, you know this time, why do you burn paper in the yang world, you have to draw a circle with branches, in fact, you are enclosing your own things, and not letting other lonely souls and wild ghosts come to take things." ”
I nodded, and then continued to walk inside, there were two black clothes inside, looking at the style of clothes worn by ancient people singing operas and official servants, and next to them were a mace and a waist knife more than three feet long. Zheng Tianbao said: "Senior brother, put on this dress. ”
I said, "What are you wearing this dress for?" ”
Zheng Tianbao said: "We are neither newly dead ghosts, nor are we evil ghosts, how can we get to the underworld?" I'm afraid that before we can get caught by the yin, we put on this clothes, and then pretend to be yin, and go to the land temple to ask for the road guide certificate, so that we can go to the underworld to save the country. ”
I said, "Senior brother, as long as I can save my junior brother, I will listen to you in everything." ”
After speaking, I put on my clothes, I held a waist knife, and Zheng Tianbao held a mace, his body was tall and mighty, holding a mace in his hand, it really seemed to be a fierce god, after we got dressed, we hurriedly got into the carriage, I sat in the carriage, asked Zheng Tianbao where to go, Zheng Tianbao said: "Let's go to the land temple, you show me the way." ”
I said, "Okay, this village is the one I grew up in, and I know which way to go." ”
After I finished speaking, Zheng Tianbao shook the reins of the horses, and the two horses walked out, and only the sound of horses' hooves was heard, but our carriage was not silent at all. When I got out of the small courtyard, I was dumbfounded, the road on the whole village changed, the original road, became very dark, and some roads became bright, what is even more strange is that those roads were not there, I looked at it, a little puzzled. Just asked Zheng Tianbao what was going on.
Zheng Tianbao said: "This is the Yin and Yang Road, just a general term for the underworld, the so-called people in the Yang world take the Yang Road, and the people in the Yin World take the Yin Road, although the Yang Road and the Yin Road overlap, but there are also places that do not coincide, this road leads directly to the Land Temple." In fact, there are many souls and ghosts who want to go to the land temple to do business, the undead who have just passed away are called living souls, and after the four major decompositions of the deceased's body, the carrier carrying spiritual power is separated from the body, which is the soul as we say. The soul is not a ghost, just a bardo body, although some of them do not know that they are dead, but they can see this road, and the road will generally lead to the Land Temple. ”
Zheng Tianbao said that I understand that there are land temples in every place, and some land temples can be seen, some of which we can't see with the naked eye in the yang world, but it is real, in fact, it is the same as the yamen, with antique decorations, a brown and red desk in the middle, and there is a local "household registration book", which records the local mountains and rivers, population, livestock, and personnel. As the saying goes, one side of the water and soil supports one side of the people, one side of the land protects the other side, and the birth and death of a soul must pass through the local land temple.
Although the land is a lowly god, it is a well-known god, and everyone does not dare to collide. It is also an important messenger of communication between all walks of life in the world and the divine realm, from the transmission of expressions to the incineration of worshipping money, it is inseparable from the help of the father-in-law of the land. When someone has reached the end of his life, the Yin soldier will take the soul card and the approval ticket to take the deceased soul to the land temple to clear customs, and the land father-in-law will open the local "household register" for verification, the deceased belongs to the local clan, and he is indeed dying, and one by one to verify that there is no religious belief, so he will stamp the local land seal on the approval ticket and pass through the underworld. There are two passages on both sides of the Land Gonggong God Case, one is the main road directly to the Western Elysium, and the other is the Huangquan Road to the Netherworld. One pass is bright, the other is pitch black. The Yin soldiers escorted the ghost into the Yin Wind and set foot on the Huangquan Road.
Our carriage walked on the bright road, directly to the land temple on the village, at that time there were many temples, all kinds of village temples are countless, and there are many evil things, so there is a strange phenomenon, almost all the small alleys are small temples, a few bricks and tiles, is a small temple, but don't look at the temple is small, but the name is well-known, what white lady, Huang Xiangu, Chang Daxian.
These little immortals on the village have a strong sense of territory, so these little immortals often fight, the so-called immortals fight, mortals suffer, and those little immortals fight uneasy neighbors. In fact, the little immortals are not powerful, they are all foxes, yellow and white willows and other family immortals.
We were walking and saw people walking, some of whom turned out to be people we knew, but those people were dead people, and one by one we couldn't look at them directly. We were in a carriage, dressed in shady clothes, and no one stopped us at all. We arrived at the Land Temple, the Land Temple was still the same as we remembered before, it was a small yamen, and after we walked in, we found the room where I was deceived by ghosts, and there was a Yin Cha who was wearing the same clothes as us. I took a closer look and was startled again, isn't this the bad luck that gave me a road guide back then? It's been more than ten years, and it's still like that.
When we entered the house, Zheng Tianbao clasped his hands and shouted, "Hard work." ”
Zheng Tianbao said: "Rely on the official at home, rely on friends when we go out, we go to the Yin Division to do errands, but the road is in a hurry, I forgot to take the official guide, and I can't pass the ghost gate, and I asked a friend to help us make up an official guide." ”
As soon as the yin cha heard this, he tugged at his goatee and said: "This, this is a bit difficult to do, like the official has to be approved by the land master, how dare I do this privately." Then he rolled his eyes and said: "We are poor and remote here, but we don't have any oil and water, I don't know if you have a lot of oil and water there?" ”
The more impsitive, the more difficult it is, since ancient times, there has been a yamen open to the south, there is no reason to come in, I know this is a bribe, but now I am afraid that he will not ask for a bribe, since it is a bribe, it is too easy to say. At this time, Zheng Tianbao said: "What oil and water are not oily and water, we are all about the same." After Zheng Tianbao said this, he saw that Yincha's face sank, and he said: "Today, the land lord went out to visit friends, this time I am not allowed, I am happy for ten days and a half months, and I am not happy to come back for a year and a half. ”
Zheng Tianbao smiled and said: "Thank you colleagues for your advice, we will change the land temple, but I have some yellow and white stones here, and it is also troublesome to carry them with me, so I will take out some and ask my colleagues to help us a little." ”
As he spoke, he put the gold and silver ingots on the table, and then the yin cha smiled and said, "This, how embarrassing is this?" I have a hobby that is to love these brightly colored stones. ”
Zheng Tianbao said: "It's good if you like it, my brother and I have said goodbye, and we have to go to the Land Temple again, and open an official by the way." ”
After saying that, Zheng Tianbao made a look, I turned around and left, and then Yin Cha shouted: "Don't go, don't go, I have it here, what are you going to do elsewhere?" If you go like this, it will be clear that I am not a friend enough. ”
Zheng Tianbao said: "Didn't you say it? The land lord is not at home. ”
Yin Cha said: "The land lord is not at home, the seal of the land lord is at home, I will take out the paper and give the two officials a guide on the road, it is not easy for us to be on an errand, this can be passed, it will be passed." ”
This is that money can make ghosts grind, the yang world likes yellow and white things, and the underworld also likes yellow and white things.
