Chapter 258: A Disguised False God



Like Lijiagou, a poor and remote country, the ancestral hall in the village has a vital position in the hearts of the villagers, and weddings and funerals are inseparable.

At this time, in the dead of night, the main hall of the ancestral hall is still lit up, and there are several good men and women who burn incense and worship God inside.

After Ye Liuyan and the others quietly sneaked in, they saw from a distance that the statues of the gods enshrined in the hall were quite strange, and if they looked closely, they seemed to be several statues of the Sea Dragon King.

Other villages worship the gods and Buddhas, but Li Jiagou actually believes in the Sea Dragon King.

Yihai City belongs to the coastal city, the perennial rainfall is sufficient, ancient and modern, there should be no need to worship the dragon king to ask for rain, right? Moreover, the place of Lijiagou is also a little far away from the sea, and it is not to mention fishing for a living and asking the dragon king to keep him safe.

It's kind of incredible!

Ye Liuyan took Zhao Xiaoman around to the back of the ancestral hall, under the moonlight, it was a quiet open space, overgrown with weeds, vines growing wildly on the wall, slightly desolate.

It is strange that such a large open space is not used to grow vegetables, and it is so deserted.

"In this soil, there is an extremely strong sealing power, not only that, but it seems that there is a secret array hidden underground. Ye Liuyan carefully perceived, but found that this desolate clearing was not simple.

"Those villagers have such great ability?" Zhao Xiaoman couldn't believe it.

"Seals and secret circles are ancient. Ye Liuyan shook his head, there was nothing special about the villagers he met during the day.

"Hmm. Zhao Xiaoman whispered a secret, "That kind of wine ointment, buried in this soil, I heard, there will be a 'Poseidon Festival' inside Lijiagou every year, on the day of the festival, the villagers will put down their work, gather in this ancestral hall, burn incense and sacrifice for three days, and then break ground, dig out a jar of wine ointment from the soil under our feet, blend it into old wine, and distribute it to every household, except for that day, usually whoever carries a hoe to steal and dig, can not succeed, but will be like being struck by lightning, fainting here for a day or two. And if a group of people come to dig blatantly, the sky will be stormy, lightning and thunder, and the scene will be very scary!"

When this goblin told those secrets, he was also embarrassed, Li Jiagou's old wine was never sold to the outside world, and he has always cherished the broom, if it weren't for Li Xingkai's utilitarian heart, he took the village treasure to the city to pull the relationship and give favors, no one would have thought that there were so many doorways behind this.

"There is a five-element wind and thunder talisman in the secret array to guard the eye of the formation, gram the five elements, resist the wind and thunder, usually to maintain the seal and accumulate power, and it can also punish the thief at a critical time, which is very powerful!"

After Ye Liuyan used his divine sense to probe, his face was a little moved.

"Let those three female hooligans come, is there a way to get rid of it?" Zhao Xiaoman was curious.

"It's a ten-grade golden rune, I guess even if the three of them join forces, it will be very difficult, the key is that there is a secret move in the secret array here that is very tricky, if the secret array and the seal are lost, there will be a force that will directly destroy all the wine jars buried in the soil. ”

Ye Liuyan was not optimistic that the three scattered immortal sisters would be able to break this situation, and the layout of the year was quite thoughtful, and even the foreshadowing of the burning of jade was buried.

"Then how did the villagers dig up the soil to get the ointment?"

That's the doorway. Ye Liuyan groaned, "This situation is difficult to break with brute force, but only the sacrifices and prayers of the villagers can be accepted, and the capable people who have left this creation already have a certain understanding of the 'Shinto'." ”

"It's really evil, and now we're in trouble. ”

Zhao Xiaoman was very distempered after hearing this, and now even if she agrees to use the power of the Tang family to expropriate, if the villagers resist vigorously, it will be fine.

In this matter, the villagers must be persuaded to take the initiative to help, praying to break the seal and take out all the jars of wine paste in the soil.

"Let's go, let's go to the front. Ye Liuyan greeted.

"But there are still people in the main hall. ”

"I have cast a spell to put the good men and women who keep vigil to sleep for a while. ”

The two talked quietly, went around the backyard, and stepped quickly into the main hall, at this time the group of good men and women were lying on the ground, snoring and sleeping.

After coming in, I found that in the main hall of the ancestral hall of Lijiagou, there were five statues of the Sea Dragon King.

"Isn't it the Dragon King of the Four Seas, why are there five?" Zhao Xiaoman looked up curiously, "Ao Guangde, the king of Guangde in the East China Sea, Ao Ming, the king of Guangli in the South China Sea, Ao Yan, the king of Guangshun in the West Sea, and Ao Shun, the king of Guangze in the North Sea...... Huh? Who is this last statue? Dressed in the clothes of the dragon king, he looks like a Taoist priest carefully. ”

This goblin knows quite a lot, but the surprise behind her attracted Ye Liuyan's attention.

Ye Liuyan came to the statue at the end, looked at it carefully, and said in the same surprise: "Dressed as a false god!"

"Poof!" Zhao Xiaoman suddenly burst out laughing, "Hahaha! I've only heard of well-dressed beasts, what the hell is this 'well-dressed pseudo-god'?"

This goblin is really not afraid of heaven and earth, and in front of the statue, there are no taboos.

Ye Liuyan was naturally not afraid, and said dumbly: "The so-called well-dressed pseudo-god is a pretender wearing a god robe, who is actually a mortal himself, and uses this method to shape a god statue, and in some areas of Shinto, he will follow a piece of the pie. ”

"It's just a meal. Zhao Xiaoman teased, "This person is obviously a Taoist priest, but he is dressed in the clothes of the Dragon King, if you can't get it right, he is a lover of ancient times." ”

"Don't underestimate this person, if my guess is correct, he is the ancestor of Li Jiagou. Ye Liuyan thought a little higher of this person.

He said slowly: "Shinto is ethereal, and when the faith is broadcast, most of the gods are seriously exaggerated and deified existences, so that they have derived the Dharma form that is beyond the Buddha-figure, and such a god has reached the level of 'separation of form and spirit', and if it has been 'separation of form and god', then the Dharma is completely above the Buddha-figure, and these two, the control of the will of the Buddha-figure over the Dharma and the benefits sought from the Dharma are gradually humbled, until the connection is completely severed, and even the Dharma is finally destroyed by the Dharma opposite. There is also a kind of deity, born without true deity, born of spiritual power and heaven and earth primordial spirit, this kind of is a void god, uncontrolled, and erratic. Most gods are no more than these three, so it is very difficult for Shinto to be fully controlled by the physical body. This Taoist priest used the four void gods to dominate the main hall, and used the method of 'clothed false gods' to take advantage, which was much more clever than the curse of the immortal grandmother to forcibly manipulate the believers. “

Zhao Xiaoman listened to it with great vigour, and smacked his tongue: "How do I feel that you know a lot about the so-called 'Shinto', you know more than those three female hooligans." ”

"I said that I was once a god, and I am also a true god of 'unity of form and god', do you believe it?" Ye Liuyan smiled playfully.

"Believe, of course believe!" Zhao Xiaoman's eyes lit up, and he looked Ye Liuyan up and down with squints, "It's not just that you were once, and now you are still my real male god." ”

Ye Liuyan smiled, knowing that this goblin wanted to be crooked again, but in this life, some truths were told, and it was estimated that no one would believe it.

"Someone is coming. ”

Ye Liuyan was about to step forward to investigate the fake statue of the Taoist priest who was "dressed as a pseudo-god", but at this moment, there was suddenly a trace of movement in the distance outside the ancestral hall.

Ye Liuyan turned around and pulled Zhao Xiaoman, and quickly hid nearby, while isolating the breath of the two of them.
