Chapter XXVII
Early the next morning, Di Ming finished washing, and according to the agreed time last night, he came to the restaurant on the first floor to have breakfast with everyone, but when he arrived at the agreed place, he only saw Zou Yu.
"Don't look at it, he's going back to the police force. He said that from today onwards, he would lead his brothers to go directly to the City God Temple to find us, and he said that you should not worry about the wine, he would arrange it. Before Zou Yu could speak, he finished all his words at once.
Di Ming shrugged his shoulders and didn't say anything, then entered the cafeteria with Zou Yu and began to eat breakfast.
Half an hour later, they left the hotel, got into a taxi parked in front of the hotel, and headed straight for Chenghuang.
In the car, Zou Yu had some words that were not easy to ask and it was inconvenient to ask, until he arrived at the destination, Zou Yu opened his mouth and asked Di Ming: "You told us last night that the city god in this provincial city is different from ours, I can't figure it out, what's the difference?" Aren't they all City God's Lords? ”
Di Ming understood his thoughts, and before he apprenticed, why didn't he think like him. So he explained briefly.
"According to the regulations, our city god is a state city god, a marquis, in charge of the area under the jurisdiction of one city or even several cities. The city god of the provincial city is the city god of the government, which can also be called the capital city god, which is the duke title and is in charge of the whole province. With the increase of the title, the strength of the city god is also different, not to mention his own strength.
Otherwise, why is there a statue of Zhong Kui in the City God Temple here, but we don't? ”
"I understand, it turns out that the City God Temple here is the provincial government of our province in the underworld! Lord Chenghuang is the governor. Zou Yu nodded and said what he thought.
"It can be understood that no matter what, as long as you have a sense of reverence for the gods, respect for the gods is actually respect for yourself."
Di Ming walked in the direction of the temple seat, bought a handful of incense, and went directly to the middle of the courtyard to light the candles on the candlestick.
Then he bowed to the four directions very reverently, and then inserted the bouquet of incense into the incense burner.
Zou Yu's learning ability is still very fast, he followed Di Ming's steps step by step, and before doing this, he handed the box containing the picture scroll in his hand to Di Ming's hand.
"Oops, I'm sorry, there's something going on in the team, we're late." The voice of the security team sounded at the gate of the temple, and he was followed by several people.
Each of these people has different things in their hands, including wine, fruits, incense, flowers, and some people directly take the money and run to the temple to wish the merits.
Originally, Miao Zhu wanted to say a few words to them, but for the sake of their very enthusiastic merit, there was still a warm smile on their faces.
"It's not too late, we just arrived. Go and pay homage to the city god and the other gods here, and then come to me, and let the wine flow down, and offer the rest to the city god! After all, you are busy in the realm of the City God, and you encounter a lot of strange things. ”
Zou Yu and Captain An didn't say anything, they did it honestly, but Captain An's subordinates muttered in their hearts, they didn't expect that the captain, who was very good in the past, could become so docile in front of this person today, this is simply unbelievable.
But then I thought about it, the leader is coming to the City God Temple today, maybe he just wants to see this person! Suddenly, I guessed something in my heart.
Di Ming didn't look at the wine on the ground, most of the people who came here to offer incense came with a heart of piety and awe, even if a small number of people were moved, they would not blatantly lift such an obvious wine jar and leave.
Di Ming walked into the room dedicated to the statue of Zhong Kui with the scroll, and looked at this Heavenly Master who was holding a demon sword, wearing a big red robe, and his face was full of murderous aura, Di Ming's heart felt a sense of intimacy.
He walked to the back of the idol with respect, and stuffed the scroll with the box into the gap between the base of the statue and the ground, so as to suppress the zombies in the scroll, but it was also a stopgap measure, and when he was able to solve it, he would still come here to put an end to the matter once and for all.
Then Di Ming came to the front of the statue, respectfully bowed to Zhong Kui's statue, and took out the two small bottles of liquor in his arms and placed them on the offering table.
He stood up and said to the statue of Zhong Kui, "I didn't break my promise! I brought three bows and nine knocks and two bottles of wine, although I didn't bring much wine, but it was worth it!
In a while, they will come to worship you, and the wine they brought with them is enough for you to drink, don't you say?
Now that there's no one, I'm talking to you a few more words! You also know that the Zhong Kui jade pendant that Master gave me was completely destroyed last night, can you give me another jade pendant for the sake of me asking my friend to bring so much wine! However, the power of this jade pendant is greater, not that I am worried that the power is not enough to hurt them, but that I am worried that they will laugh at you!
I think with your magical powers, you should have heard them mock your jade pendant twice last time, and I don't think it's worth it for you in my heart! How wise you are! How can they be so slandered, even if it is a jade pendant.
Do you say? Dare you reply to me! Thank you! ”
After Di Ming finished speaking, he folded his hands and bowed reverently. But after he finished praying, the room was still quiet, and no sound sounded in his head.
Di Ming sighed helplessly, turned around and prepared to leave. At this moment, Zhong Kui's abusive voice came from his mind, "Good boy, it's just a matter of coming to repay your wishes, and you still want benefits!" Don't you know that this Heavenly Master is upright and honest? But for the sake of your boy and me, I'll give you a jade pendant. However, you still have to cultivate well, and the magic weapon is still a foreign object after all! ”
As soon as Di Ming touched his chest, another jade pendant really appeared on his neck, and he took it out to see that it was Zhong Kui's jade pendant, but Zhong Kui on this jade pendant was carved with more charm.
He happily turned to the statue of Zhong Kui and said, "Thank you, Heavenly Master, thank you." When I'm at a high level, I'll go down to you for a drink! ”
At this time, Di Ming was in a very good mood, and when he walked out of this room, he found that Zou Yu and Captain An had not yet come here.
"It's weird, it shouldn't be so slow! Shouldn't anything happen here? It won't be a temporary task, so let's leave in a hurry! This is also too unkind. ”
Di Ming took the conjecture in his heart and walked towards the City God Hall, although he thought so, he didn't believe that they left like this.
Before he entered the main hall, he saw Zou Yu and Captain An and a group of them surrounding a young man, who was praying very devoutly.
Zou Yu saw Di Ming standing at the door and looked over, and he couldn't bear to disturb this pious young man, so he walked out gently, came to Di Ming's side, and said to him: "When we were going to you, we happened to pass by the temple gate and saw a student walking in with a schoolbag on his back, we felt very strange, this point should be the point of school!"
Later, after the temple said, we understood. The child was brought up by his grandmother and is now in high school. His grandmother would come to this temple every fifteenth day of the new year to offer incense, and she was a layman here. Six months ago, his grandmother had gone, and the child would come here on the fifteenth day of the new year to offer incense in place of his grandmother.
Today happens to be fifteen, and I heard that this young man misses his grandmother very much, and hopes to see his grandmother often in his dreams, so every time he comes here, he will kowtow to the head of the city god. I don't know if Lord Chenghuang will help him and arrange for his grandmother to meet him in a dream. ”
"His grandmother was not tall, slightly chubby, looked kind, and had large earlobes, and was blessed. The dress is also very plain, maybe the eyes are not very good, and you have to squint to see clearly. Di Ming didn't say anything to Zou Yu, but said something that surprised Zou Yu.
"Don't tell me that now his grandmother is standing here, standing beside him. Doesn't it mean that ghosts can't come out during the day? This is the City God Temple! Zou Yu's mood was difficult to calm down, he knew that Di Ming would not say these words for no reason.
"Good is rewarded with good, evil is rewarded with evil, it is not that the time has not yet come. Who said that ghosts can't come out during the day, just as people don't come out as usual in the middle of the night, it's just less.
His grandmother is a blessed person, and after her death, she will naturally be blessed with merit, and unlike other ghosts, she will not be suppressed by the divine aura here.
It's just that the time for her reincarnation is approaching, and she can't stay in this world anymore. She loves this grandson too! They obviously have a lot to say. Di Ming didn't know why, and felt a dull pain in his heart.
"Can you help them, then?" Zou Yu asked naturally.
"Don't you think that if I do this, I will be suspected of overstepping my way in front of Lord Chenghuang?" Di Ming stretched his voice very long.
"Then you can't just watch this scene and do nothing, right?" Zou Yu said with some excitement.
"I didn't expect you to be so enthusiastic, if only all the police could be like you, it would be great!" Di Ming said meaningfully.
Then Di Ming took a few steps forward, stepped into the hall, came to the young man's side, leaned over and whispered a few words in his ear, and patted him on the back.
The young man bowed respectfully to the city god three times, then stood up, bowed deeply to Di Ming, and walked out of the hall.
The old man's soul also smiled at Di Ming, bowed very gratefully, and disappeared into the hall.
When Di Ming was about to explain to them, he suddenly felt a sense of fatigue all over his body, and the nosebleed also flowed down inadvertently.
He looked back at the statue of the god of the city god from afar, and said silently in his heart, "This is the price, but I think it's worth it!" ”
