Chapter 440: Jade Emperor's Palace

After the fellow finished speaking, he hurried away, and Brother Wang said with a cigarette in his mouth: "Yes, the people in this village are really incurable, isn't it the same during the Great Leap Forward?" These people ...... It's enough for us, and so many of us are believers, and if we are slightly stimulated, we will become fanatical believers. Just look at the news in the Middle East to know how crazy and unreasonable this kind of people are, let's not plan to kill people and set fires or anything today, watch them perform honestly, and by the way, touch the situation in this temple, and the matter of arresting people has to wait until the people are gone, and then they will be directly stuffed into the car and pulled away. ”

Brother Qiang nodded: "That's the only way, ignorance and ignorance make people occlusive and crazy." Hopefully everything will go well today. ”

Brother Qiang's ghost head knife and Brother Wang's plate axe have been put into the jade pendant by us, and the self-defense weapons on our bodies at this time are a military stab and a dagger.

We slowly approached the temple, surrounded by a sea of people, many small businesses were set up on the roadside, what melon seeds, candy, incense, tribute and even children's toys, as lively as the temple fair.

At a place that sells incense, the three of us pretended to buy some gold ingots and long incense, then put them under our armpits and began to walk inside along the flow of people.

The temple is still more than 100 meters away from the road, and it seems that this is according to the layout of the ancient temple. The temple is located on a high platform, surrounded by cushions of earthwork and gravel, the whole temple is almost several meters higher than the road, and it is very imposing to look at. In particular, the carved dragon steps, the white marble railings and the three doorways facing the road that can be seen when you look up, make people involuntarily worship.

Brother Wang was surprised: "It's really fucking exquisite, hey, these three doors have a saying, there are three doors of people, gods and ghosts, and that's how Sanmenxia came." The steps are also exquisite, with dragons carved in the middle, and the steps on both sides imply that the gods walk in the middle. The reason for carving the dragon is that this place is his mother's Jade Emperor Temple, and it is said that the Jade Emperor's mount is not a dragon? It's very much in line with the values of these legends, and it can even be said that it is specifically tickling in this area. Awesome, amazing. ”

I pulled him: "Don't bring these three words of his mother when you say the Jade Emperor, it's easy to be beaten." Brother Wang, how do you know these layouts? ”

Brother Wang flicked the cigarette ash and smiled: "Your brother and I grew up in ancient tombs, and we have drilled into all ancient tombs, and we have also studied a lot of murals inside, and almost all of these ancient temples are like this." Ancient people were much more particular than modern people, and everything was regulated. For example, the size of the doorway, the number of dragons carved on the steps, and even the size of the area. It's not like modern people, who build an antique building, paste an airbrushed cloth printed with immortals, and start charging to fool pilgrims. ”

After speaking, Brother Wang pointed to the two groups of people on both sides of the gate and said: "These two places are also exquisite, these are two wells, also called longan, which are unique to the temple gate. This kind of thing is very useful in ancient times, for example, pilgrims come to burn incense, walk tired and half dead, draw water from the well and come up to wash and eat some dry food, not only to relieve fatigue, but also to clean themselves up, so that entering the temple to show respect, the gods also have face. ”

"Another effect is that in the event of natural and man-made disasters, many people like to come to the temple to beg. If there were wells outside, the hungry people would at least have clean water to drink and not die, and the people in the temple would be able to keep them outside without disturbing the gods. It was also much easier for them to make porridge in the yard and give alms, after all, there were so many steps and three doors in the way, even if someone coaxed and grabbed the food, there was room for maneuver. Why are those steps so narrow? It's just to prevent people from swarming up. ”

, I thought I was just coming to watch the excitement, but I didn't expect Brother Wang to know so much.

Even Brother Qiang couldn't help but look sideways: "You and Wenxuan wouldn't fool people in the broken temple back then, right?" ”

Brother Wang actually smiled a little embarrassedly: "It's not flickering, we basically go to the temple to rob openly, the more roast chicken, the better, and even the money on the pilgrims is not spared." ”

I finally know why Brother Wang is a person without taboos, for these things he did, if it weren't for his hard life, he would have died hundreds of times.

After all, blasphemy is a great sin that stirs up public anger in any era.

Suddenly I felt a little sorry for my brother, it is a miracle of life to grow up with such an unreliable person.

I wanted to go and see the two wells in front of the gate, but when I saw that a bucket of water was being pumped out of it and the people next to me were frantically filling it into a container that I was carrying, I lost the courage to look at it.

Brother Wang said: "These two wells must have been deified, for example, drinking the water here for longevity and curing all kinds of diseases, these routines are the most common, but they are directed at the hearts of the people, and it is impossible for these people not to be crazy." ”

We walked up the steps, and this thing was so well designed that even if two people walked side by side, they couldn't stand, so they had to line up one by one.

Going up the steps, Brother Wang pointed to the platform in front of the door and the two trees on the platform and said: "This is called the platform, and there are pines and cypresses planted on both sides. But even if this temple is over, there will definitely be no one to practice, and I doubt that there are any real monks in it. ”

Three doors were opened, but everyone entered from the left, and no one walked through the middle. Brother Qiang smacked his lips and said: "At this time, you can see the orderliness and obedience of the Chinese people, change to another place, let alone three gates, even if there are eight gates, they will be squeezed out." The Chinese people's fear of the gods is far higher than the law, and they don't know if this is a misfortune in China. ”

When you enter the door, the first thing you see is the statues of the four heavenly kings in the doorway. The statue more than three meters tall and the unique posture of the Four Heavenly Kings made everyone who came in frightened, and those who were laughing immediately subconsciously stopped laughing and became respectful and solemn.

Brother Wang whispered: "Looking at the eyes of these four heavenly kings, you will definitely subconsciously raise your head when you first come in, but when you look up, this thing is just staring at you, and you are still holding a weapon in your hand, no matter how bold you are, you will be startled." The reason why everyone becomes solemn is actually scared by this thing. ”

As he spoke, I saw several people carrying giant incense sticks more than three meters long around me saluting Brother Wang, and hurriedly pulled him in. Mom, don't get beaten up before you get there, it's a big loss.

After entering, the inside suddenly opens up, the ground is paved with green bricks Yongdao, just leading to a large hall facing the three gates, there is a long incense burner at the entrance of the main hall, in front of the incense burner is the person who keeps kowtowing and burning incense, and melts all his blessings to the family and the individual and even to the children and grandchildren into this handful of incense, that respectful demeanor, people can't help but believe that these are true.

In the middle of the corridor, an iron pillar is erected, and an apricot-colored flag is hung on it, showing the identity and status of this temple.

On both sides of the road is a large area of open space, at the end of the open space is a row of houses, looking at the people in and out, I guess what kind of gods such as the eighteen Arhats of Guanyin are asking for children, we don't have the heart to look, and go directly up the steps of the main hall along the road.

There were people everywhere, and the three of us desperately squeezed in to see the statues of the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother inside.

Brother Wang couldn't help but want to laugh when he saw this, but after being hit by Brother Qiang with his elbow, he immediately stopped laughing and whispered: "The Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother are not two people at all...... These people are really good at pulling Lang matching, isn't this a messy mandarin duck score? ”

I forced a smile, Brother Wang's jokes don't matter at any time, isn't this fucking nothing to smoke? Fortunately, all the people around him looked solemn, and no one noticed what Brother Wang was saying.

There was an old man standing at the front, talking about something, as if he was chanting a scripture and couldn't really hear it at all, I didn't care, but stood on the threshold and looked up at the statue of the Jade Emperor. Last night, Zhu Dayong said that this thing blinked, which made me feel a little unreal, this thing is carved from wood, and I can see the texture even when I stand so far away, how can I blink?

Did he hallucinate?

As a result, as soon as I had this idea, I felt the jade pendant on my chest heat up, and then I saw that the Jade Emperor really winked at me......

My day!

I looked at Brother Wang and Brother Qiang with a surprised face, but I didn't expect them to be looking at me with a surprised face, this is too fucking weird, right?

Brother Wang put his hand into his clothes, I thought he was going to tickle, but when his hand was stretched out, I was stunned, and his jade pendant was actually broken.

This jade pendant is still the Pixiu jade pendant I sold to him at that time, it is a high-grade spirit jade, but I didn't expect it to be broken in the blink of an eye just now.

Is this a fucking fantasy?

Wanggo pulled me and whispered in my ear, "Wait and see!" ”

I nodded, didn't speak, and began to look around.

As a result, I noticed that a woman had been staring at us, and she looked familiar.

I rubbed Brother Wang with my elbow and motioned for Brother Wang to look in the direction of the woman.

Brother Wang was happy when he saw it: "Isn't this the chick who was caught by me at the airport yesterday?" How did she get here? This kind of thing should also be taken care of by the people of national security? ”

I shook my head, looked at the beautiful woman in the crowd and whispered, "Let's stay away from her as much as possible, beautiful women are in trouble wherever they go." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Brother Wang touched me: "Boy, do you want Zhou Xiaoqin and Meng Wanqing to clean you up?" ”

As he was talking, the old man who was chattering inside finally ended, he took the incense and inserted the incense burner, turned around and said: "The incense begins, a stick of incense costs a thousand yuan, what wish can you tell God, he is here now, listen to it." Don't worry, God has plenty of time to go down today, and you can talk to God after paying the money......"

Damn, it's too dark, isn't it? A thousand yuan for a stick of incense, is this the cost of long-distance and time and space roaming?

I was just about to laugh, but someone behind me was pushed against something very sharp, and a man's voice came: "The dog of the Maoshan faction? Whoever asked you to come, get out of here! ”
