Under normal circumstances, mortal mortals who have committed disasters and diseases and died of aging have souls, but those who are killed by thunder have their souls burned by the fire of heaven and become a low-level negative substance called 魙, where does the earth go? There are also arrangements in the dark.

Since Sintaitu had poisoned too many cows, and the cows were herbivores, the only way to relieve him of his guilt was to turn him into a god of plants and trees after his death, so as to give birth to more blades of grass for the cattle to feed. Now his body has been burned to ashes, and it has been blown away by the wind, and when mixed with the rain, it will be scattered into mud, which will become fertilizer for the cultivation of plants and trees.

Xin Taitu, who was demoted to the god of plants and trees, was arranged by the Yin Priest to manage the grasses and trees in the inner mountain village, and the ordinary cattle did not eat many leaves, most of them ate bamboo leaves. There is a large bamboo garden in Uchiyama Village, so as a 魙, it is mostly attached to bamboo poles, and it is also called the bamboo god.

The bamboo god plays everywhere every day, that day, when he saw Craftsman Liu, he remembered that he was imprisoned in his previous life because he denounced himself, so he was resentful and wanted to wait for an opportunity to retaliate, and finally had a chance, Craftsman Liu went to the bamboo garden to cut down bamboo, and fell down in a row.

That is, when the 13th bamboo was about to fall, the bamboo god quickly went over to confuse Craftsman Liu's consciousness, intending to let the bamboo fall down and hurt his waist.

At this moment, Craftsman Liu was really confused, and just cut off the roots of this big Nan bamboo, and he walked towards the direction where the big Nan bamboo fell, and he was only one second away, and he would be hit.

At this critical moment, as if something pushed him, he turned away, and Nanzhu fell down with a "whirl", only an inch away from his waist. How dangerous, he didn't understand it at all.

But when Nanzhu fell to the ground, Craftsman Liu was sober, and then looked at the big Nanzhu that fell beside him, he knew that he almost hit his waist, and a row of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

Seeing this, Bamboo God was very annoyed, not only did he not retaliate against Craftsman Liu, but more importantly, he found that his conspiracy had been stopped. Who's stopping it? It's the god of the mountains.

At that moment, the mountain god was playing chess with the village land god in the clouds, and when a piece that was eaten was taken away, it accidentally did not let go, jumped from the sky, and fell into the bamboo garden below.

He jumped down to look for it, and saw the bamboo god facing Craftsman Liu, and knew that something must be wrong. Sure enough, Craftsman Liu was fascinated, so he went over and pushed him, and he survived. Immediately, he stepped over and reached out to hold the bamboo god's chin, and said, You little elf, why are you bullying a mortal? The bamboo god didn't tell about his past life with Craftsman Liu, but only choked up: What are you doing for him? Yin and yang are separated, and he has nothing to do with you.

The mountain god pushed the bamboo god and said that I want to accumulate some yin virtue and help a group of mortals, what can you do with me? The bamboo god groaned for a while, and teased: Oh, by the way, Craftsman Liu goes up the mountain to worship you every year, so you protect him, don't you?

What is it? Isn't it? If you still have to turn your mouth, I will ask the land god to clean you up and drive you out of the bamboo garden. The mountain god said unceremoniously.

The bamboo god didn't dare to speak, only to see the mountain god bow his head and pick up a chess piece, and jump into the clouds again. The land god waited impatiently, knocked on the chessboard and said: Quick, play a chess piece.

The bamboo god failed to harm Craftsman Liu, so he came to the door of Craftsman Liu's house and complained angrily to the door god. Generally, the door god does not allow the ghosts and gods from outside to approach the threshold, but it is kind to the bamboo god, because they are all woody gods, and the doors of the house in the past are made of wood, and the door god is naturally attached to the wood, and the bamboo god has become his ally.

When he heard the bamboo god say that it wanted to take revenge on Craftsman Liu, the door god advised: Why retaliate? If you ask him for a debt, won't you settle your resentment? Besides, you poisoned the cultivated cattle in your past life and were discovered by him, you sent a knife of fresh beef, and wanted to block his mouth, but in the end he leaked it and let you eat a lawsuit, which is understandable, it was the yamen who sent someone to investigate his home, and he couldn't help but talk about it, and he couldn't get out of it if he didn't talk about it.

The bamboo god thought that it was reasonable for the door god to say this, but he still didn't accept that tone, he said that he must take revenge on Craftsman Liu, at least let him break some money.

Seeing that the bamboo god was so stubborn, the door god patiently advised: It is better to let Craftsman Liu burn some money for you to use, so that even if he owes you a beef debt, it will be paid off.

Your suggestion is good, how can I get Craftsman Liu to burn money for me?

Wouldn't you just sneak into his dreams tonight and ask him for money?

What if he doesn't burn me money?

Let's try it! My master is loyal and honest, as long as he promises in his dreams, he will do it when he wakes up, and besides, it is not particularly difficult to burn some money.

The bamboo god and the door god discussed this matter, and that night the bamboo god really entered Craftsman Liu's sleep and said about it.

Craftsman Liu woke up early in the morning and told his lover Ma Daoying about it, and Ma Daoying urged him to go out of the mountain quickly and go to the town to buy a pile of money.

An hour later, Craftsman Liu came back in a trance, he walked into a corner of the bamboo garden to incinerate the money according to the designation of the bamboo god in the dream, a ball of flames reflected his face, wisps of green smoke rose into the air, and the rest was a pile of paper ashes.

Craftsman Liu saw that there was no one next to him, so he said loudly: Xin Taitu, you have become a bamboo god now, I congratulate you, I offended you before, please forgive me, now you can use the money to burn, come and pick it up! If you take good care of my bamboo garden, I will burn the money for you next time. As he spoke, he knelt down on his knees and worshiped reverently to a row of green leaves and lotus flowers.

The bamboo god was very happy, looked at Craftsman Liu and nodded, just waiting for the ash fire to cool down, and then he could bow down and pick up the money.

After a while, Craftsman Liu got up solemnly and left the bamboo garden. The land god and the mountain god jumped off the clouds one after another and rushed over, and the mountain god saw the pile of new dark money, and was secretly happy in his heart, but said calmly: Wow, bamboo god, you dare to blackmail the mortal craftsman Liu, you don't want this money. The land god came to push the bamboo god, glanced at the mountain god knowingly, and then scolded the bamboo god: If you do this, the mountain god and I can send you to the Yin official to receive the guilt.

What are you going to do? Takegami asked dissatisfied.

The money goes to the public. As he spoke, the mountain god motioned for the land god to act with him. In the blink of an eye, the pile of dark money was picked up by the two gods and put half of it into their pockets, and they were about to leave, when the bamboo god shouted: "It's so cunning, you don't let me take the money, but you each take the money." When the mountain god saw him say this, he turned around and threw him a penny; The land god also gave the same, and the bamboo god got two dark coins, and he was not very satisfied, and thought: I finally asked the dream of Craftsman Liu to give himself the dark money, and almost all the wealth in his hand was lost.

At this time, he chased after him and said to the god of the land, "You have given less." The land god ignored him, only walked out of the bamboo garden, and distributed the handful of dark money he had just picked up to the gods of the road, the pond, and the river.

The land god in turn said to the bamboo god: Do you think I have embezzled these money? The bamboo god had nothing to say, so he went to the mountain god again, and the mountain god also distributed the handful of money he had just picked up to the grass god, the flower god, the tree god, and so on. In the end, he only had two dark coins in his hand, so he said to the bamboo god: I didn't get any more points, and it is a joy to share with everyone, do you understand?

The bamboo god left lonely, and he came to the door of Craftsman Liu's house again to complain to the door god. The door god said that I know everything that happened just now, forget it! Craftsman Liu's debt to you in your previous life can be repaid, so don't pester him anymore.
