(Today is still a two-in-one chapter)

In fact, at this time, the countries of Bandong were almost all under the control of Heishomon. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

And in the eyes of Heishomon, the old and the young in Kyoto, far away in, are just poor worms waiting to be slowly swallowed by him.

And the so-called Ichilao refers to his old chief regent, Fujiwara Tadahei, and Ichishao is the Suzaku Emperor who has not been on the throne for a long time.

Of course, if this is said the other way around, the old and the young will have a headache not only because of the big bad debt in the east.

In the Seto Inland Sea to the west, there is also a Fujiwara Juntomo. This Fujiwara Junyu was originally the chief military officer of Iyo Province, and once he was ordered to conquer the pirates of the Seto Inland Sea, but the pirates didn't fight it, and the pirates didn't fight it, but they joined each other.

In a few years, it became the largest pirate group in western Japan. Not only did they cause trouble in the Seto Inland Sea, but they even landed on land from the Settsu Namba area on several occasions. It has seriously threatened the security of Kyoto.

The imperial court was helpless, and after several court discussions, Fujiwara Tadahi finally assigned Senator Fujiwara Tadaira as the general of the expedition to the east to crusade against the Taira Shomon, and another senator, Ono Yoshiko, was the pursuit envoy of the Western Kingdom, responsible for governing the pirate Junyou.

Fujiwara Tadafumi, who became the general of the expedition to the east, learned from the information at this time that there was a sworn enemy in the Taira Shogun, and Taira Sadamori was still in Bandong.

So he sent someone to find Zhen Sheng, appointed him as the vanguard of the expedition to the east, and gave him an official order to dispatch soldiers in the local area.

Sadamori, who got the official order, accidentally found a person at this time, he was Fujiwara Hidego, the envoy of Shimono Kunitsu nicknamed "Omoto Tai".

So after the two met, they began to secretly recruit soldiers in the Shimono and Ueno areas to prepare to attack him, concealing the eyes and ears of the Taira Shomon.

The two have escaped death under the attack of Jiangmen many times, all thanks to the front of Kikyo who is the ear of Xiuxiang, that is, the most spoiled wife of Ping Jiangmen now.

So Xiuxiang collected information on the weaknesses of Jiangmen on the one hand, and on the other hand, he continued to recruit troops and plan a counterattack with Zhensheng. On the other hand, Kyoto is in constant fear due to the great threat posed by the Shomon Gate, so various prayers and rituals such as prayers for victory and subduing traitors are held on a large scale at temples and shrines in Kyoto.

Finally, in the decisive battle of Beishan on February 14 of the third year of Tianqing, the fate of the "captured" Jiangmen was decided. The Jiangmen army, which was originally in a smooth battle, wantonly slaughtered the Zhensheng Xiuxiang Combined Army when the wind was blowing against the opponent, especially at this time, not only "one" general, but seven generals including the doppelganger.

Fujiwara Hidego was invincible, so in the predicament, he remembered the method of cracking the doppelganger that Kikyo said before. After that, Fujiwara Hidego took out Kanda Fudo Myojin's talisman and threw it at the shomen and clones who were killing him.

The gate that was hit by the talisman was broken in this way. At this time, the wind that was originally blowing against Zhensheng Xiuxiang's combined army turned into a tailwind, Zhensheng took out an arrow and aimed at the weakness of Jiangmen that Xiuxiang told him, and took advantage of the wind to hit the key point between Jiangmen's eyebrows with an arrow.

The general who fell off the horse with an arrow was then stabbed by Xiuxiang, who rushed forward, and the general who was shot and fell from his horse and died was beheaded by Xiuxiang's knife at this time.

In this way, the dream of the new emperor of Pingjiangmen has only been done for more than 70 days. At this time, the crusading army led by Fujiwara Tadamimi, who had not yet entered the Bandong territory, had just arrived near the Enoe and received the auspicious news that Sadamori and Hidego had defeated the shomen.

However, although it is true that Heishomon is dead, after the victory, Zhensheng and Hidego encountered strange things that night.

First of all, Kikyo, who was making eyes and ears for his brother, suddenly bled to death through seven holes, and then the soldiers guarding the body of Shomen hurriedly reported that Shomon's body had disappeared without a trace.

When Zhensheng and Xiuxiang ran to the other side to see the head of the Jiangmen who were showing the public, the head of the Pingjiangmen suddenly opened his eyes and laughed at the two of them and said:

"It's just to cut off my head, you don't have to be complacent, and then someone will naturally avenge me!"

"I won't go to hell like this, I'll curse your children and grandchildren forever!"

Later, when the head of the Taira Gate was taken to Kyoto to present to Emperor Suzaku, the ministers were almost frightened when they opened the wooden box that wrapped the head of the Gate.

The head of the door inside the wooden box opened his eyes with an angry face, and there was a sound of teeth colliding when he clenched.

Not only did he bluff the ministers until they were all out of the house and incontinent in public, but even Emperor Suzaku was so frightened that he was sick for several months and almost died and went west.

The terrified Fujiwara Tadahi ordered the head of the shomon to be taken to Kyoto's Higashi City to show the public, but only a few days after the public display, the news spread that the Higashi area was haunted in the middle of the night.

Some people say that in the middle of the night, they saw many undead in armor haunting the Jiangmen head, and those who saw it also became ill after they returned.

Loud wild laughter was also heard. At the same time, the area around Ishii, the hometown of Shomon in Sarushima County, Shimoku, Bandong, was also haunted, and in broad daylight, someone saw the body of Shomon, who had disappeared and lost his head, wandering there, as if looking for his own head.

In this way, there was a commotion for half a month, and suddenly one day, when there were many people, the head of the shomen let out a roar and then rose into the air, and then flew in the direction of Bandong, leaving behind a bunch of frightened people on the spot.

The head of the gate flew all the way east, as if it was about to join his body, and finally landed near Togoshi in Musashi Province.

Later, in order to anjin the ghost of the shomon, he built the shomen tezuka in Otemachi, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo.

Hundreds of years later, when the Tokugawa clan took control of Edo Castle, they restored and rebuilt the Kanda Myojin Shrine in Edo Kanda to worship Heishomon.

When Tokugawa Ieyasu entered Edo, there were many strange incidents, and after divination, he knew that it was Heishomon who was haunting him, so he comforted his grievances.

In fact, Ping Jiangmen's body did not disappear out of thin air, but was cut up by his remnants and taken to various places for secret burial.

As a result, there are legends about the so-called "carcass mound" of the Shomon in various parts of eastern Japan, and many shrines have been created to worship the Shomon.

On a certain day in the ninth month of the fourth year of the Jiali calendar, a mound of earth suddenly rose near the Kanda Myojin Shrine, and then a huge thunderbolt fell from the sky and hit the mound. In the thunder light, the nearby residents all clearly saw the figure of a warrior wearing ancient armor.

The frightened people waited for the thunderstorm to pass and went out to inspect the mound and found that there was a crack in it, and when they went in to investigate, they realized that the mound was an ancient burial mound.

However, the strange thing is that there is no coffin or other burial objects in the tomb, so there is no way to know whether this is the actual tomb of Jiangmen.

After that, until the opening of the Edo Prefecture, there were reports of the evil spirits of the Shomon, and it was not until the shogunate completed the construction of the new Kanda Myojin Shrine that there were no more similar strange incidents.

After the construction of the new Kanda Myojin Shrine, a grand shrine was held in the name of the shogunate in the name of the shogunate during the Sandai Iemitsu period, and the spirit of Shomon was moved from the current shomon mounds to the new Kanda Myojin Shrine.

The first mound was just inside the upper yashiki of the Mikami Domain, so the Mikami Domain continued to worship the first mound from generation to generation. As a result, the belief in the god Kanda Myojin, which was incarnated by Shomon, slowly spread out of Edo and became one of the deities that the common people of Kanto worshiped enthusiastically during the Edo period.

In the third year of Kanbun, Emperor Gomizuo accepted the advice of the shogunate and issued a pardon for the crime of rebellion against Heishomon.

As time passed, when the Shogunate collapsed and the Meiji government was established and the capital was moved to Edo to Tokyo, in the seventh year of the Meiji era, the Meiji Emperor personally went to the Kanda Myojin Shrine to pay sacrifices, and was officially recognized and respected by the imperial family.

At the beginning of the Meiji period, the new city plan made the Yashiki of the Mikami Domain a designated location for the government offices of the Ministry of Finance, so the old Mikami Domain was completely uprooted and rebuilt into a new official building, and the first mound of the Shomon was retained only a little bit of land centered on and around the mound.

It wasn't until the 12th year of Taisho that the Great Kanto Earthquake struck, and more than half of the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Finance were burned down in the city of Tokyo, and the entire Motomozuka was completely cracked.

When the new Ministry of Finance was rebuilt, the shomon mound was also buried, and a new official building was built on it.

Unexpectedly, when the Showa year was rebuilt and the Ministry of Finance was rebuilt, many strange things happened. First of all, Minister of Finance, who had just moved into the government office, died of a sudden illness a few days later, and then several officials at the level of section chiefs also died of sudden illness. Just when everyone was suspicious, Vice-Minister for Political Affairs Sakuhei Takeuchi and several other sub-bureaucrats of the Ministry of Finance also encountered an unknown strange commotion in the official residence of the official hall and fled in fright. As a result, rumors of the door were spreading, and the entire city of Tokyo was terrified.

It is said that the cabinet of Reichiro Wakatsuki at that time had been shaken to the brim by the financial panic that followed the earthquake, and was eventually replaced by the cabinet of Yoshiichi Tanaka. At that time, it was rumored among the citizens of Tokyo that Wakatsuki was also because of the resentful spirits of Shomon, and these rumors about the haunting of the spirits spread more and more, and even the Kansai region in Kyoto and Osaka had heard of it, so after Tanaka came to power, in the third year of Showa, he asked the Minister of Finance, Sanshi Tadazo, to entrust Hirata Morin, the detherate of Kanda Myojin Shrine, to perform a consolation offering at the head mound of Shomon.

At that time, all the cabinet bureaucrats at and above the Ministry of Finance, including the Minister of Finance and Prime Minister Tanaka, attended the ceremony. After the festival, the rumors did not subside, and Tanaka was forced to step down after being reprimanded by Emperor Showa for the death of Zhang Zuolin in the same year, and died of illness the following year. Therefore, it was also rumored at the time that Tanaka was also one of the victims of the resentment of the Shomon.

World War II also took place in this world, and at the end of World War II, Japan was also a defeated country.

With the armistice treaty, Japan became a trusteeship of the American army. When the U.S. military stationed in Japan was reorganizing the city of Tokyo, which had been in ruins due to bombing, the U.S. military's headquarters in Tokyo happened to be located near the shomon mound, and the government office of the Ministry of Finance at that time was in ruins.

At that time, the U.S. military fell in love with the ruins and wanted to clear it out as a parking lot for the U.S. military headquarters. When the engineers who were cleaning up the project arrived in front of the shomen mound, the workers who operated the bulldozer and excavator suddenly died, and then the US military counselor in charge of the project also died suddenly at his residence two kilometers away, and the US Army engineer lieutenant who took over the project also died in a car accident on the second day after taking over.

One after another, the designer of the parking lot project accidentally fell from the building, and the old Tokyoites at that time remembered the legend of the past, and the story of the ghost of the gate was re-circulated. This incident even alarmed the top brass of the US military, who decided in an informal meeting to scrap the plan to build a parking lot and let the private sector buy the land here.

At that time, a private organization in Tokyo purchased the site at a bargain price, and immediately began to rebuild the shomon mound and hold a new memorial service. In the latter part of the Showa period, the Cultural Property Protection Bureau of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, and Culture of Japan provided a special grant to renovate the shomon mound.

After that, the resentful spirit of the Ping Jiangmen was gradually appeased, in fact, this has to start with Gao Tianyuan.

Because Heishomon was canonized by Takamagahara, after the death of Heishomon, because he himself was a descendant of youkai, it was much stronger than ordinary undead.

And because he was canonized by Takamagahara, he couldn't enter the country of Yellow Springs after the death of Heishomon, after all, Takamagahara, who was managed by Amaterasu, the daughter of Izanagi.

And because Izanagi once offended his sister and wife Izanami in the land of Yellow Springs, it can even be said that he turned against each other.

Therefore, the spirits of the Heishomon under the mark of Takamagahara, who bear the seal of Takamagara, will not be entertained by the Yellow Springs Country managed by Izanami.

The reason why a resentful spirit is a resentful spirit is, in Japanese parlance, a dead spirit that cannot become a Buddha after death.

Moreover, at that time, the development of Zen Taoism in Japan was not very good, and it can be said that the gods of Buddhism had not yet gained a foothold in Japan.

After all, the birthplace of Buddhism was in Tianzhu, so for the Buddhists at that time, the undead of Pingjiangmen were marked by Gao Tianyuan, and the Buddhism family was not able to compete with Gao Tianyuan for the time being.

In this way, the undead of Heishomen have been wandering and wandering, until when Guan Yuan Daozhen was officially canonized as a god of learning, Gao Tianyuan decreed that Guan Yuan Daozhen should be the head of the four resentful spirits to manage Hei Jiangmen, Prince Saara, and Emperor Chongde several resentful spirits.

Therefore, under the management of Guan Yuan Daozhen, there is gradually no longer a resentful spirit.

It's just that Emperor Chongde, who is ranked at the tail of the four resentful spirits and belongs to the first of the three monsters, still gives Guan Yuan Dao a real headache.

Not only him, but even Takamagahara, who was troubled by the great tengu of Emperor Chongde.

After all, Emperor Chongde belonged to the Tengu, and the Tengu belonged to the Buddhist family. Therefore, the identity of Emperor Chongde is very sensitive.

After so many years of development, Buddhism has almost surpassed the power of Takamagahara. Therefore, this is also one of the reasons why Guan Yuan Daozhen is not worried about Chongde going to monitor the wine-swallowing boy and Yuzao.

After all, for the time being, the relationship between Buddhism and Gao Tianyuan is very ambiguous, and not only that, because of the concept of Buddhism, the relationship between the country of Huangquan and Buddhism is also like fire and water.

After all, the original souls of the dead were going to enter the country of Huangquan, but now, many of the souls of the dead have become Buddhas, and they will also enter the Western Heavenly Kingdom of the Buddhas. (To be continued.) )
