How could the five of them not have thought that those two old monsters turned out to be the legendary, Meng Po and Tan Gong?

When the five of them saw these two statues, they had the feeling that they had entered a hellish ghost town. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Because everything in it is built in imitation of what is in hell. It's like a hell, but it's more yin than the humans in the capital before.

It's already approaching night and the sun is setting. The sky gradually darkened. In the entire black bamboo ditch, it seems that the yin qi is rising, as if it is heard everywhere, and the sound of ghosts crying and wolf howling.

While it was still completely dark, the five of them prepared to continue walking.

"Brother God, why do you say this place is so similar to hell, who made this place almost like hell!" The little beggar asked with a puzzled face, he couldn't figure out who would build such a strange ghost town here when he was idle.

"This question should be asked to the person who built the ghost town, you ask me, I can't tell you, because this city was not built by me, you still find those ghosts to ask!" Zhou Tianyi said.

The five of them walked to the bridge, and when they stood on the bridge, they suddenly felt that something was wrong.

There are Meng Po and Tan Gong in front, and this is likely to be the legendary Nai He Bridge, and after crossing the Nai He Bridge, you will arrive at the legendary hell ghost town.

When he first walked to the Nai He Bridge, Zhou Tianyi suddenly felt that something was wrong.

The Taoist texts record that Meng Po was on the other side of the bridge, not on this end.

"What's wrong with the little god? Is there something wrong? Why are you stunned here? Miao Weiqiang looked at Zhou Tianyi, who was stunned on the bridge, and asked curiously.

"Do you know what the bridge means!" Zhou Tianyi said with a puzzled face, remembering what he encountered before, because he didn't walk in front of him, pay attention to those strange discoveries.

"I don't know, Brother Shen, you are from a Taoist family and should know the legend of Nai He Bridge!" The little beggar said.

"That's right, I do know that I didn't remember it when I was in front just now, but now on the Nai He Bridge, I suddenly remembered that we have already walked through Huangquan Road!" Zhou Tianyi said.

"Brother God, first tell me what the Nai He Bridge means!" The little beggar continued.

Zhou Tianyi frowned and talked about the Nai He Bridge.

In Chinese Taoism and Han folk mythology, the bridge is a place to send people to reincarnation, where an elderly female deity named Meng Po is given a bowl of Meng Po soup to forget the memories of the past life and be reincarnated in the next life.

There are two popular theories about this bridge, one is called Nai River Bridge and the other is called Nai He Bridge. One says that there is a river named Nai River in the prefecture, and the other says that because of the meaning of "helpless" in Chinese, it just corresponds to the regret and helplessness of people who wish to be born when they are reincarnated.

There is a legend: it is said that after death, people have to pass through Huangquan Road, and reincarnation has to pass through the Nai He Bridge, and there is a kind old woman named "Meng Po" on the Nai He Bridge, who is constantly boiling a pot of soup with "forgetting" as the seasoning. Anyone who wants to be reincarnated must drink the soup cooked by Meng Po, and after drinking this bowl of Meng Po soup, he will forget everything in his previous life. Therefore, people always do not remember the events of the previous life. There is also a legend that the soup of the bowl of Meng Po soup is the tears shed by the reincarnated person, and when he drinks it, he tastes the past one by one, and then forgets it.

From the perspective of Han folk culture, bridges and their symbolism are even more often used by people to establish connections or form transitions and intermediaries between humans and ghosts, life and death.

In contrast to "mythology" and "fairy tales", there is another unique type of "ghost tales" in the folk word-of-mouth literature of the Han nationality in China. Although we often use the phrase "ghost story" to describe the absurdity or unbelievability of someone's words, the "bridge" that repeatedly appears in folk "ghost stories" is not accidental, and in our opinion, it is not absurd. In the folk beliefs of the Han Chinese people, "ghosts" are a type of negative supernatural existence that arises from death. In many of the ghost stories circulating throughout China, bridges are often haunted by ghosts, especially the ghosts of the drowned.

The ghosts of those who died in the water or fell from the bridge and died always went up and down the bridge or left and right to find a substitute for themselves so that they could be reborn. In this sense, the bridge is both the place where the ghosts of the deceased leave the underworld and are reborn into the yang world, and the continuous emergence of new deceased.

From the sun to the underworld, the alternation and transformation of life and death.

According to legend, there is a road called Huangquan Road, there is a river called Lechuan River, and there is a bridge called Naihe Bridge. There is an earthen platform called Wangxiang Terrace after walking across the Nai He Bridge, there is an old woman named Meng Po who is selling Meng Po soup on the side of Wangxiang Terrace, there is a stone called Sansheng Stone by the Lechuan River, Meng Po Soup makes you forget everything, and Sansheng Stone records your past and present life. We walked across the Nai He Bridge, looked at the world for the last time on the Wangxiang Terrace, and drank a cup of water boiled in the Lechuan River.

This bridge is the boundary and begins a new reincarnation.

Bluestone bridge deck, five steps, west of the bridge for women, east of the bridge for men, left yin and right yang. "Whoever dies at the age of ninety-seven will wait three years on the bridge." A thousand years of retrospective, a hundred years of promise. Maybe the relationship between husband and wife in this life began and ended here.

"Brother God, do you mean that we are approaching Huangquan step by step? Then the river below should be the Lechuan River, if you go over, is there one, Wangxiangtai and Sansheng Stone! After listening to Zhou Tianyi's speech, the little beggar asked puzzled.

That's right, we're getting closer to hell step by step, and if I'm guessing correctly, the fabled hell ghost town ahead.

The five of them continued to walk forward, and after walking for a long time, there was indeed a platform in front of them. This platform should be the legendary Wangxiang Terrace, and there is a stone next to the Wangxiang Terrace, which may be the legendary Sansheng Stone.

Everything here is built in imitation of hell.

The front is cloudy and shocking.

The five of them knew in their hearts that they had now entered the legendary hell ghost town, and they didn't dare to be careless in their hearts, and carefully observed the surroundings, lest a demon suddenly appear in an unknown place or something.

"Everyone, be careful, I feel that something is wrong with this place, as if some monsters are running rampant in this place!" The twin-tailed scorpion said cautiously and vigilantly, and for some reason, it suddenly felt as if someone was following him behind him.

The five men walked cautiously forward, and after walking a short time, the strange voice sounded again. Scared the five of them, what kind of monster is this? This monster seems to be following itself all the time? (To be continued.) )
