Chapter 3: Origins

In order to find a relatively powerful snail, Lin Tianze left the mass grave and turned east and west in the mountains and forests, not for a short time, but in fact he didn't go far.

Walk more than a few hundred meters in the forest, and then climb a small hill to see the winding up the bluestone road.

Among the pine trees are the towering Buddha wall temple.

The mass grave behind the temple is his "home" for a short time in the other world.

This is a temple built in the deep mountains and old forests, the old monks and small monks plus more than 200 people, the huge sandalwood plaque hangs on the vermilion lacquer gate, but the mountain gate plaque is empty, there is not a word.

Because this temple is nameless, Lin Tianze was slightly stunned when he first heard this, and he didn't give a thumbs up, if Lan Ruo is unbounded, the dojo of the heart is not bounded, how can it be limited by the three worlds of the ten directions, that is, it is unbounded.

Pure and inactive cultivation of the mind, where is not a dojo, why bother to stick to the temple, the mind is not pure, is it really quiet to practice in the temple?

What is the name of the place where you settle down for a short time?

Compared with the previous life, in addition to the name, he changed his lining countless times, cleared a group of traitors, and was reborn because of the movie and the thousand-year-old "ranking" of listed companies, it is really this ancient mountain gate far away from the red dust, and it has more Buddhist artistic conception.

And the mass grave inhabited by many lonely souls and wild ghosts can live next to this temple, and the two naturally have a deep relationship.

According to a local ghost, more than 100 years ago, there was a plague in this square town, and the local officials directly built a disaster shed in this mountain forest, and people suspected of having the plague were all locked up here.

It just so happened that a monk traveled here to hear about it, preached the scriptures, and applied medicine to save people.

After curing the plague.

When the monks found that the people who had died in vain under the plague and bad government, they were resentful and feared great calamity.

Therefore, the shed where the sick were imprisoned was used as a temple, the cemetery where the sick were buried was used as a dojo, and dozens of children who had nothing to do with the plague were accepted as lay disciples.

Every day, he recited scriptures and preached Buddha to their dead relatives, suppressed the ghosts, resolved grievances, and reincarnated them into good families.

Thankful to the monks for curing the plague, the pilgrims who came to offer incense were also instructed by the monks to say that the dead have small hearts, and in the place where the dead are buried, burn incense first and then come in to burn incense and worship the Buddha, so this has become the default rule.

This land could not have developed into such a chaotic mass grave.

But it happened so that there was a family with no children and an elderly couple who were adjacent to each other, and this winter, the husband of that family was seriously ill and lay in bed dying.

His wife cried in front of the bed and said, "The shopkeeper is dead, and there are still people who take care of the aftermath and worship and burn paper." I am really pitiful, I am really pitiful, I am at home, dead, stinking, I don't know if anyone knows, and the neighbors don't know if they are reluctant to dig a pit and give me half a straw mat to wrap myself. ”

The old man of his family was already sick and dazed and uncomfortable, and when he was cried like this by his mother-in-law who didn't lay eggs, his temper came up, and he couldn't move on the bed, so he sat up and scolded in a daze.

"Those who are buried in the plague can have someone to take care of the afterlife, keep the incense, you don't want to live, die early, go to the forest to dig a pit and bury yourself, and you can also mix incense with you when you die!"

The old man took his last breath when he reflected the light. Plop and lie there.

His old wife didn't know that he was a solid eye, and he really took his old man's scolding before he died.

I still think what the old man said is reasonable, the place where the plague patients are buried is a treasure of feng shui, and there are high monks chanting scriptures.

Dozens of half-sized people take care of the grass on the graves, and those who go to the temple to worship the Buddha also default to the incense sticks in front of the mass graves.

So he directly buried his old man there, and built a tomb for himself next to it, and waited for his breath.

Then I don't know how this matter spread, at first it was those beggars, idlers, who thought that feng shui was good, so you help me and I help him, and they all set the place where they will return after a hundred years.

After that, there was the yamen at that time.

The court above, there was a special appropriation to build Yizhuang to collect the corpses of other people, and the corpses were not handled well, and it was not a good thing for zombies, ghosts, or corpses to be stolen by evil aliens.

When the county magistrate heard about this, he slapped his big hand, this piece of land is good, and it will be buried in the future, Yizhuang doesn't know what the reason is, the house is always damaged, and the daily maintenance is to invite someone to add money, otherwise there are no craftsmen to work in the past.

It is also necessary to specially ask experts in Taoism to take care of them, and these experts report the accounts, and the materials and all kinds of incense paper money, and various special coffins, together with a large amount of expenditure.

Now there are free monks who have attained the Tao, which saves worry and effort.

Then, the money that was set aside to maintain Yizhuang was put into his pocket by whom.

There are no secrets between the upper echelons, and some of the big guests have also been opened to the door to a new world by the actions of the official master.

The maid who was killed, the family member, because of some unsightly reasons, died a more evil man's subordinates, deal with it, not only to keep it secret, not to let outsiders know, lose the face of their own family, don't deal with it, and make trouble in the house after death.

Now there is also a place to solve the trouble that affects the reputation, there are high monks to suppress, preach the scriptures, and roll a mat in the middle of the night, and throw it here without fear, what accidents will happen.

A group of dead people were buried there to rub the Buddhist scriptures and listen, the monk did not say the slightest, calmly let it go, according to what he said to the apprentice, as an outsider, and the land was not his, there was no reason at all, and there was no need to stop it.

So the mountain forest behind the temple became a public cemetery.

This tradition was maintained until the monk's death.

Among the lay disciples, a few apprentices who were really ordained were originally very disgusted with this kind of bullying.

Pay tribute to your relatives, and then add a group of graves of strangers you don't know, and that's it.

Every day, people bury dead people around your house, or die outside waiting for you to dig a pit and bury them, what is this called?

The monks in the temple were tacit, except for the graves of themselves and their brothers.

Other graves, they selectively ignore.

In addition, the monks have accumulated for decades, and their local prestige has gradually increased, and the small people in the market are not coming here, although they are not directly deserted, but they have also returned to normal frequency.

In this way, the once lively prime location has become a mass grave where lonely souls and wild ghosts live.

Lin Tianze glanced at the top of the Buddhist temple, hurriedly lowered his head, and hurriedly walked around.

On top of the temple is a towering stupa made of golden light, the stupa has seven layers, and each layer of the eaves is hung with bronze bells of different sizes, and these bronze bells do not shake in the night breeze, like solid dumbbells.

As a person who asks for good quality if he doesn't understand, Lin Tianze naturally inquired about what this tower is, and the professional noun is a lot of nonsense, Lin Tianze is a little difficult to understand, but it should be equivalent to luck protection.

It is mentioned in many folk tales, the red face is full of red light, all evil does not invade, it is easy to see unclean things when luck is low, and in some stories, demons and monsters have to knock on the door, and you can only come in to harm people when you open the door for him, this is the system of luck protection.

Compared to the normal house in the story, it also prevents the doors and windows from acting as a door god.

This temple fully embodies what it means to be domineering.

It is not a famous mountain and an ancient temple, a well-known local temple is more fortunate than the temple, and half of the mountain where it is located.

Interestingly, this tower is quite a monster, but it doesn't target ghosts who used to be humans.

This is also the reason why Lin Tianze named this tower the luck shelter.

From the perspective of his own outsider, Lin Tianze sees this world as a rejection of aliens, at least from his shallow knowledge after crossing over, all aspects are full of such traces.

Living beings are protected by yang energy, and living creatures have this past.

When a person who is the elder of all spirits walks alone at night, three fires will light up on his head and shoulders that make the devil's heart hairy when he looks at it.

There was such a saying in his previous life, but after seeing it once, Lin Tianze felt strange.

Because no matter how you look at these three fires, they don't look like they are generated by the human body itself, but patches imposed by the outside world.

This world is very magical, but if those magic are investigated, Lin Tianze feels that he can also find the root.

And these three fires are too much in line with people, not with objective phenomena.

If you want to say that the blood is vigorous, people can be compared to ferocious carnivores, why don't lions, tigers, bears hug wild boars.

If you want to talk about the more illusory concepts of Fu Lu Shou, why do you only have them when you walk alone at night?

It wasn't until later that I learned that this world was incomparably similar to the historical myths of previous lives.

Tracing back to the ancient barbarian era, there were three emperors of heaven, earth and man.

The Emperor's Divine Court rules in charge of good weather and good fortune.

The Netherworld shapes the cycle of life and death.

Later, the Central Emperor, the Eastern Blue Emperor, the Southern Yan Emperor, the Western White Emperor, and the Northern Black Emperor, five mythical eras that don't know how long the years are.

Lin Tianze quickly figured out that the strange setting of the three fires in this world could really be acquired, human, and god-made.

As a world that can be regarded as an individual cultivation civilization, in the long history, it is normal for them to master the rules and formulate the rules of heaven and the laws of the Yin Division, and make some protection mechanisms for the human race.

In the science and technology fantasy novel "Dune", the future starry sky imagined by "Dune" also has a position protection setting, and everyone has a protective position that the interstellar cannon can't penetrate, and can only fight with low-speed cold weapons to kill each other.

So even if you know that there are scholars and foxes in the nearby city, ghosts that are disembodied in yin qi and spiritual life, and foxes of different species and sizes.

gave birth to a normal and intelligent child with that scholar, Lin Tianze was not too surprised, really!
