Chapter Seventy-Five: The Punishment of Heaven, Two City Gods in One Day!
Listen to the watch!
Is this heaven an immortal, a heavenly court, or a Taoist ancestor?
Lin Ye wasn't sure.
In the scriptures left by Lao Dao about the heavenly hearing on the table, he did not say which god was the one who listened to the heaven.
Heaven.
This is Lin Ye's understanding.
The rules that maintain the yin and yang operation of this world.
Yang people have the rules of yang people, and Yin has rules of yin division.
Yin Si violates the rules, and he must also be bound by this heavenly way.
"I Ye Zhiyuan, a native of Poyang, has studied less since the new, has been given by God, has been astute in wisdom, has become famous for his literary talents, and has been famous for his literary talents, and he should not live up to the gift of heaven, and he has won fame in the examination, and he is an official for the people, and he is the city god of Poyang City, and he covets my talent and learning......"
"As a city god, but not do the duty of the city god, using the public weapon of the city god, stealing private desires, stealing my own fame, is one of the crimes."
"I died of illness because of this, my wife, my son, without a livelihood, both went to die."
……
"Heaven can see it, and it has mercy on me."
"Heaven can see, have mercy on my wife!"
"Heaven can see, have mercy on me!"
……
Poyang City!
There was thunder at night, and many people were woken up by the thunder, that is, they saw a light flashing outside the paper window.
"How can there be thunder in this kind of sky, this is God is angry, and who has done something that hurts the heavens and reason." An old man looked at Lei Guang and sighed.
City God Temple!
The green tiles and red eaves were shattered under the thunder.
All the ghosts were trembling at the moment, kneeling in place and not daring to move.
Just a few breaths ago, a thunderbolt fell, directly shattering the statue of the City God.
Yang Chenghuang stood in front of his idol with a frightened face, his face pale, this is a heavenly punishment.
The power of the incense of the two nails of penance has dissipated today.
However, the thunder above did not dissipate.
Seeing this, Yang Chenghuang bowed down and said, "Heaven is graceful:"
"I have succeeded to the position of the city god, trembling, keeping the right and driving away the evil, not daring to relax, two Jiazi years, there are no demons and evil in Poyang, no ghosts for the disaster, not to say that it is all my credit, but there is also the merit of Weibo."
"That Ye Zhiyuan, who is very literary and talented, but his life is a catastrophe, he should have died on the way home after he was famous, and I did this because I had the intention of saving his life."
Thundered!
The thunder in the sky was even worse, and Yang Chenghuang's body trembled and knelt down directly.
"I ...... I am indeed selfish, the local rich businessman Qian once went to the temple to make a wish, if his son is famous, he will come back to repay his wish, rebuild the City God Temple, cast the City God's golden statue, I want to take away Ye Zhiyuan's literary brilliance, not only to protect Ye Zhiyuan's life, but also to get Qian's incense. ”
At this moment, Yang Chenghuang didn't dare to hide it in the slightest, and God couldn't deceive him.
He served as the city god for nearly two years, the incense is not very vigorous, according to this situation, it will take at least more than a hundred years to complete the merits, but at that time the yang court was corrupt, he had a hunch that this dynasty might fall, once the new dynasty was established, the city god of the world was sealed, and his position as a city god may not be kept.
In that context, he chose to cooperate with the wealthy merchants of the Qian family, stole Ye Zhiyuan's articles, and let the son of the wealthy businessmen of the Qian family gain fame, and the wealthy merchants of the Qian family also rebuilt the City God Temple and recast the golden body of the City God as he wished.
The new city god temple was built, and the people also came to incense, and the incense was much more vigorous than the original, even if the dynasty iterated, his position as a city god was as stable as Mount Tai, because the new dynasty wanted to appease the people, so he did not dare to move his city god position.
But this operation is not without risks, and Ye Zhiyuan is the biggest risk.
For this reason, he deliberately feasted Ye Zhiyuan every day, just wanting Ye Zhiyuan to give up the idea of gaining fame and fame, and be a rich man, with his own protection, he can live forever, and when he has accumulated enough incense and his merits are successfully gone, he will not be afraid of breaking out again.
didn't expect Ye Zhiyuan to devote himself to scientific research, no matter how much persuasion was useless, he didn't expect that Ye Zhiyuan would be ridiculed by a businessman and die, and the most unexpected thing was that Ye Zhiyuan's wife would hang herself with her son.
A family of three, three lives, this is a great sin.
If the souls of Ye Zhiyuan's family of three return to the underworld, then this matter will happen, and then Ye Zhiyuan's family of three will complain to the judge of the Yin Division, and he, the city god, will also have to be escorted back to the underworld for trial.
As for killing the soul of Ye Zhiyuan's family, if he, as a city god, dared to do this, there would be a heavenly thunderbolt immediately.
In the end, he could only choose to find the precious soul bead and give it to Ye Zhiyuan's family of three, but the soul bead is not omnipotent, in the memory of Ye Zhiyuan's wife and children, Ye Zhiyuan is dead, which cannot be changed, so he designed Ye Zhiyuan to leave Poyang County.
For him, what he wants is to procrastinate, and he can drag it until the merit is complete.
However, Ye Zhiyuan's return this time made his plan unexpected, and he could only choose to control the ghosts of Ye Zhiyuan's family of three first, and not let the three of them go to the underworld.
Unexpectedly, something went wrong after all.
Boom Boom!
The lightning and thunder thundered in the sky, Yang Chenghuang had a trace of luck in his heart, he had made a contribution for so many years, and the heavenly punishment should not fall again.
However, just when Yang Chenghuang felt that the thunder had become smaller, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Rumble!
A thunderbolt fell, and the entire City God Temple shone with a dazzling luster.
Yang Chenghuang forgot a truth: knowing the law and breaking the law, the crime is added to the first.
……
……
In the Chenghuang Temple of Shangyang County, Li Chenghuang looked at the direction of Poyang County, looking at the thunder on the sky, with a look of satisfaction on his face.
There are now two Chenghuang in the entire county, one is him, and the other is Yang Chenghuang of Poyang County.
The new dynasty was established only a few years ago, and it has not yet reached the point of wantonly sealing the city god of the world, because this sealing of the city god needs to consume the luck of the country, especially the new city god.
In order to save the fortune of the country, the best way is to seal the old city god.
He wants to compete for the position of the city god of a county, and the one in Poyang City is his biggest competitor.
Ye Zhiyuan's strange situation was known before he became a city god, and he knew it when he was just a bad day, and he secretly pushed Ye Zhiyuan to go to Qingfeng Temple, wanting to use the hand of the old Taoist of Qingfeng Temple to pull down the city god of Poyang City, but it turned out that the old way was too cunning.
The incense money was not refused, but he just pretended not to see it, so he didn't interfere in this matter at all.
Fortunately, there are still nosy people after all.
As soon as the incident of Yang Chenghuang in Poyang County came out, he was the only one in the county.
Just when Yang Chenghuang was immersed in the imagination of the city god who was about to become a county, above the sky of Poyang County, there was suddenly a thunderbolt like a silver snake cutting through the sky, which actually crossed from the Poyang sky to Shangyang County.
When Yang Chenghuang saw this thunder, his pupils instantly contracted, and he was about to retreat.
But the thunder fell directly.
Rumble!
Yang Chenghuang collapsed to the ground, and his expression became sluggish.
He couldn't figure out why the Heavenly Punishment would even include him.
This heavenly punishment made him fall directly from the position of the city god, and it became an ordinary yin difference, and there was no hope for the position of the city god in a hundred years.
