Chapter Twenty-Four: Goodbye, Senior Brother
Breeze view!
After Lin Ye entered, he found that Qingfeng Temple had returned to its former tranquility, and all those refugees were gone.
"Lin Gongzi!"
Dawu was very happy to see Lin Ye, Lin Ye rubbed the little Taoist hairpin, and asked with a smile, "What about the people in the Taoist temple?" ”
"Lin Gongzi, after those rebels entered the city, they arrested all the rice merchants, and then distributed all the grain hoarded by the rice merchants to the people who had no food, and the people in the Taoist temple received the grain and left."
"Distribute food to the people, it seems that this rebellion has a very good conscience."
"Who said no, not only the distribution of grain, I heard the people who came back to the Taoist temple to take things say that they also gave them all the land that originally belonged to the landlords, so that they have land to plant, and many people have to join the people."
Listening to Dawu's words, Lin Ye was a little pleased, it seemed that the senior brother had listened to what he had said at the beginning, and he had taken the method of dividing the land and beating the landlord.
"Do you know who the leader of this rebellion is?"
"Listening to those people, the surname is Qiao, very young."
Lin Ye confirmed that it was the senior brother, the senior brother's surname was Qiao, and he was not very old, he was in his thirties.
"Dawu, you will go to my side to find Xu Bo to get rice and grain, and I will go to your master."
Lin Ye patted Dawu on the shoulder and walked towards the inside of the Taoist temple, Dawu saw Lin Ye's back and muttered: "But now there are no people in the Taoist temple, so it's useless to ask for so much rice and grain." ”
In the Shangqing Palace, Daoist Dingxuan was doing a day lesson in front of the statue, and Lin Ye didn't bother, looking at Daoist Dingxuan quietly.
A quarter of an hour later, Daoist Ding Xuan finished his day class and looked at Lin Ye: "You're here?" ”
"Dao Chief, I sent food as agreed."
"Hmm."
Ding Xuandao raised his head and looked at Lin Ye with his eyes, "Yes, it seems that you have been meditating in the past few days, and your soul is a little more stable than before, if you continue to hold on for a while, your soul will be able to return to normal." ”
One year is not a long time, nor is it short, but for Lin Ye, who has an on-hook system, a year is a blink of an eye.
"Dao Chief, I have a question I want to ask for advice."
"Oh, is it a meditation problem, you say."
Ding Xuan Dao Chang thought that Lin Ye did not understand something in meditation, Lin Ye's expression was a little embarrassed, and said, "It's not meditation, but it is related to ghosts." ”
Swish!
Ding Xuan Dao Chang's face sank suddenly, Lin Ye knew that this person had misunderstood himself again as soon as he saw Lao Dao's face, and felt that he was the same as the one his master had met at the beginning, and quickly explained:
"Dao Chief, you also know, my soul is unstable and easy to see ghosts, I saw a ghost stranded in the yang world the day before yesterday, I asked him why he didn't go to the underworld, he said that he has been in the yang world for more than 7749 days, and now he wants to go to the underworld, but he doesn't know how to go to the underworld, he asked other ghosts, and found that the way these ghosts feel the summoning route of the underworld is different from what he felt at the beginning."
Listening to Lin Ye's explanation, Ding Xuandao's face was slightly better, and he stroked his beard and said: "After a person dies, within the number of seven or seven, there will be a summoning in the underworld to guide the way forward, and every yin spirit has a different way to the underworld, but don't worry if you miss this number of days, you can go to the city gods of each city, and the city gods will be responsible for sending them to the underworld." ”
City God.
Lin Ye's eyes froze, and he asked, "Dao Chief, is there really a city god in this world?" ”
"Of course there is, each place has its own Chenghuang Yin Division, which is responsible for the affairs of the Yin Soul, this is a rule, and no dynasty can change it."
Ding Xuan Dao Chang gave Lin Ye an example, six hundred years ago in the Jing Dynasty, when Jing Taizong first decided the world, but did not listen to the officials' letters, and named the officials of the Zhou Dynasty as the city god, but ordered the soldiers and officials who died with him to be named the city god.
First of all, these newly dead soldiers and officials could not suppress the ghosts at all, and secondly, the officials of the Zhou Dynasty also began to disturb the world after their deaths, but in just two years, Jing Taizong was forced to issue an edict and re-enshrine the city god of the world.
"It has always been the rule to seal the officials of the previous dynasty as the city god, and there are three reasons for this, one is that the previous dynasty has existed for hundreds of years, and some officials who love the people have passed away for a long time, and they have been worshiped by the people by building temples, and they have to be worshiped by incense, and they can suppress ghosts."
"The second is that the soldiers who died in the previous dynasty were unwilling, and their colleagues in the same dynasty served as the city god, so they could also appease the souls of these soldiers and the dead, and they would not stay in the sun and harm the people."
"The third is to stabilize the hearts of the people and seal the officials of the former dynasty as city gods, so that those gentry families who have a lot of relationship with the previous dynasty do not have to worry about being settled by the new dynasty."
After listening to Daoist Dingxuan's explanation, Lin Ye was also a little emotional, there were so many doorways in a city god.
There are city gods in other worlds, and there must be city gods in the ancient world, but now the problem is that many cities in the real world have no city god temples.
"Dao Chief, if there is no City God Temple in the local area, how can those ghosts go to the underworld, can they go to other counties to find City God?"
Ding Xuan Dao Chang Zhengse said: "No." ”
"Why not?"
"The city god has its own territorial boundary, not within the scope of the jurisdiction, the city god will not take care of it, in this case, only wait until Qingming and Halloween, the door of the underworld is opened, and the ghost can feel the entrance to the underworld, or ...... Or you can find a cultivator to send him to the underworld. ”
When answering, Ding Xuan Dao's face was slightly pale, and Lin Ye was a little puzzled by what kind of expression Lao Dao was, but after listening to it, he probably understood.
I understand, the city god doesn't care about anything outside the realm, this is to benefit the Taoist and those who are cultivators.
No wonder Lao Dao is a little embarrassed.
But now the problem is that he can't find such people in the real world, and he is not sure whether those Taoist monks are really capable, and it is impossible to really let these ghosts stay until Qingming.
"Dao Chief, is it easy to send ghosts to the underworld?"
"It's not hard to say, it's not easy to say." Ding Xuandao stroked his beard, saw Lin Ye's somewhat confused eyes, and explained: "If you want to send ghosts to the underworld, you only need to recite the scriptures of sending to the afterlife, this scripture is not difficult, but the reciter must practice the sense of qi in order to communicate yin and yang." ”
Qi sense, Lin Ye is no stranger, the last time the old Taoist passed on his long meditation Sutra explained, the so-called qi sense is actually the cultivation of the person's absorption of heaven and earth aura, every time you meditate, between breathing and breathing, you will absorb the aura of heaven and earth in the body, and after accumulating over time, it will form a vortex in the body, which is called qi sense.
To put it bluntly, it is not difficult at all for people who cultivate the sense of qi, but it is impossible for people who have not cultivated the sense of qi.
"With your qualifications, you should be able to cultivate a sense of qi within three years."
"I see, thank you for your explanation."
Lin Ye doesn't care, three years, hang up for a moment, I will hang up when I go back this time, and I will hang up for three years.
"You're also part of the uprising?"
Just as Lin Ye was about to leave, Daoist Ding Xuan suddenly asked a sentence that made him stunned.
I don't know anything about my senior brother, and I haven't met an acquaintance from the mountain before I came here, how did the old Taoist know about it?
"Ahem, Lao Dao made a breakthrough in his cultivation of the five senses yesterday, and I heard the conversation between you and the scholar in the study." Daoist Ding Xuan explained lightly.
Lin Ye just looked at Ding Xuan Dao Elder quietly, this was deliberately eavesdropping on the corner of the wall.
When he thought about it, he could also think of the mental activities of the old way, the five senses had broken through, and his hearing was better than before, so he thought about experimenting, and then he thought of himself who lived next door, eavesdropping on his conversation with the scholar.
"I'm not a member of the rebellion, I just think that in this world, the people can't live anymore, and I think it's good for someone to rebel, doesn't the Taoist think so?"
Ding Xuan Dao Chang was silent, and sighed after half a sound: "It's just that after all, the people are suffering." ”
"At least no matter what the outcome is, the people will have a period of recuperation."
If this time fails, the court officials will also kill a group of corrupt officials in order to appease the people, and the life of the people will be better for a while, and it will be even better if the rebellion succeeds, all production resources will be reshuffled, and the people will be able to share the fields.
"That's it, if you don't discuss the right and wrong here, is there anything you don't understand in your cultivation?"
……
……
Half an hour later, Lin Ye walked out of the Taoist temple and saw Xu Bo walking towards him.
"Young master, I was about to look for you, but the scholar who left earlier came to the door again, and brought someone with him, and I brought them to the side hall."
"Okay."
Lin Ye nodded and said that he knew, and he was a little curious, An Zisheng had just been hit by himself and left, and he came back so soon, and he brought someone back?
Back in the house, before Lin Ye stepped into the side hall, he saw a figure in green clothes facing away from him looking at the ink paintings hanging on the wall. ”
Lin Ye never thought that An Zisheng brought a senior brother, could it be that this guy ran to the senior brother after being hit by himself?
The senior brother also turned his head when he heard the voice, and when he saw Lin Ye's excited expression, he also showed a warm smile on his face, and said, "I heard that you have now become a landlord, so I came here to take a look." ”
"What's the matter, I didn't take advantage of the low housing prices to buy a house, and there is not a single acre of land."
Lin Ye scratched his head with a smile, facing the senior brother, I don't know why he has a sense of intimacy towards his elders.
"Senior brother, why are you with him?"
An Zisheng felt the disdain for himself in Lin Ye's tone, and he didn't get angry but took the initiative to explain: "I just listened to Lin Gongzi's remarks, and deliberately went to find the rebel army, and found that the rebel army was indeed as Lin Gongzi said, so he asked the rebel soldiers to see their leader, that is, General Han, after General Han saw me, I informed General Qiao of some of Lin Gongzi's remarks, and General Qiao asked Lin Gongzi's name, so he brought me over. ”
Lin Ye looked at An Zisheng directly, An Zisheng's eyes dodged slightly and didn't dare to look at him, Lin Ye snorted coldly, how could it be so simple.
In An Zisheng's heart, he felt that he must also be a member of the rebel army, and he was brainwashed by himself...... Oh no, after being guided to the right path, if you want to join the rebel army, you probably go to the rebel army to report your name and ask to see the elder brother.
This expression was properly guessed by himself.
