Chapter 99: Heavenly Palace and Thor

On the altar, the statue of Lei Gong is brilliant. The original stiffly painted plastic color gradually became natural, and the originally stiff edges and corners gradually became much softer, and the eyes of the god flashed brightly, like a flash of thunder in the night, this clay statue seemed to gradually come to life, and a pair of eyes stared straight down, with a terrifying majesty.

"Who called me?" It was a deafening sound like thunder, echoing in the temple, and listening to it in the ears as if there was thunder.

The three-flowered cat has been hiding behind the Taoist legs, only revealing half of its head and one eye, quietly observing, its eyes wide open.

I saw the Taoist standing below, bowing his hand to the shrine: "There is an invitation below." ”

"A Taoist priest...... Zhou Leigong's eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was offended, and said in a deep voice: "Which sect are you from?" Who is the teacher? How rude! Ask to see the gods, don't you even put on a stick of incense? ”

"Lei Gong misunderstood, he just walked outside, and he didn't bring incense with him, which was not intentionally rude. Under the surname Song Mingyou, he is the thirtieth generation of Fulongguan in Yinyang Mountain, and his teacher is from many Taoist people. Song You respectfully, just paused, and then said,

"But the family teacher is still there, if Lei Gong wants to ask clearly, he can also go to Lingquan County Yin Yang Mountain to find her." These thirty generations are counted from the beginning of the inheritance of Fulongguan, but not from the beginning of Fulongguan.

The inheritance of Fulongguan was halfway through, and someone founded Taoism, and then there was an ancestor who built Fulongguan on this Yin Yang Mountain with a hot brain, and later many lazy ancestors relied on it to eat.

Speaking of which, the inheritance of Fulongguan is not only longer than that of the Heavenly Palace, but also longer than that of Taoism.

"Yin Yang Mountain Fulongguan ......" Zhou Leigong's eyes gradually narrowed, but he was not afraid: "It turned out to be the heir of Fulongguan, but the heir of Fulongguan shouldn't be so rude, right?" I'm afraid that you won't make it! As he spoke, he lowered his gaze again, staring at half of the head and one eye of the three-flowered cat.

"Brush!" The three-flowered cat quickly hid.

"Where's the kitten demon? There is still a bit of incense on his body, but the obscene shrine in the mountains is evil? Today you have captured this wild god of the mountains and sent it to me? The three-flowered cat dodged tightly and resolutely did not take the lead.

"Lei Gong still don't scare the child." I saw the Taoist and Lei Gong looking at each other, and said, "Does Lei Gong know that there is a frog god by this lake?" However, there is no wild god who is enshrined by the imperial court and cannot be recognized by the heavenly palace. ”

"What about the wild gods?" Lei Gong frowned and stared at him: "God comes from people, and the people are willing to sacrifice, as long as the toad does not make a mistake, I have no reason, why do I need to spend more energy on him?" ”

"Lei Gong is so tolerant of the wild gods?"

"How many of these gods are full of gods and goddesses who first received incense and then were sealed, don't you know?"

"I see." Song You smiled. It sounds like this Zhou Lei Gong and those gods who want to be arrested and questioned as soon as they see the obscene and evil cults and unsealed wild gods, and are eager to maintain the power of the righteous gods, and the concepts of Taoists are not the same.

This is more in line with Song You's thoughts. A one-size-fits-all approach is lazy government, if it is not helpless. Song You paused, and then said: "Speaking of which, when I came last year, this frog god was also responsible, how could I pass by the lake again this year, and I found that he used some other means, I don't know if Lei Gong knows?" ”

"It turned out that I came to ask for sin." Zhou Lei knew his intention, but his face was still calm, and his voice was like thunder: "You Fulongguan has been walking the world from generation to generation, don't you know how big this world is?" Could it be that every wild god in the mountains has done evil, and I have to know it as soon as possible? ”

"I don't mean that in the next."

"If you have something to say, please speak up."

"I know that the divine power of the gods is actually limited, but when I heard that the god of Jingdao Lake has been sent upwards twice, I can't pay attention to it. Second, the newly built temple of the frog god is two miles in front of the Lei Gong Temple, and even if it is not blocked by houses and village trees, you can see it when you stand in front of the Lei Gong Temple, and this Pingzhou is the birthplace of Lei Gong, I think, is he a little too faceless to Lei Gong? ”

"......" Zhou Leigong's face is not very good-looking. The statue of the god is originally a clay sculpture, and it is blocked by the temple wall, the vision of the gods is limited, and the divine power is also limited, how can you know all the chaos of demons and demons in the world?

It's just that if this frog god really made trouble, he also repaired the temple next to him, and he, a well-known folk god of thunder, didn't notice it at the first time, it really shouldn't be, it was really dereliction of duty, and it was really humiliating.

At this time, I heard the man ask, "What does Lei Gong think?" ”

"I am the god of the thunder department, and the god of Jingdao Lake has not been taken seriously, which is neither my problem nor something I can control. But the frog god is indeed my fault. Lei Gong's voice in the temple was much quieter, but it still sounded like a thunderous sound.

"However, this is just the words of the next family, how it is, it is still to be investigated by this god, and then convicted and punished according to the rules of heaven!"

"Zhou Leigong is really upright."

"I don't know where the footfall comes from?"

"Yizhou is here."

"When to travel down the mountain? How many states have you visited? ”

"About two years ago, I traveled to three states."

"If you have time, you should go to the northern border to see, the war in the world over there has just ended, thousands of miles of misery, ten rooms and nine emptiness, a group of demons dancing wildly, and big demons, maybe you can give a different understanding to your feet......" Zhou Leigong paused,

"You may be able to know at your feet why my Thunder Department Masami can't see the mountain gods that are close at hand."

"That's ...... like this" is really mistaken for him. I don't know if it's true or not, but I believe it for the time being. Then admit that there is a mistake.

"That is to misunderstand Lei Gong and be rude to Lei Gong, please forgive Lei Gong." Song You smiled and arched his hand,

"In this case, it's just a trivial matter, so don't delay Lei Gong, just do it for you."

"In his position, do his duty, and don't dare to bother his feet." Zhou Leigong said, his body has gradually recovered into a statue, leaving only a voice,

"Please come back to me in the future, remember to serve me a few sticks of incense."

"Slow down ......" soon only a clay statue was left in front of him. Song You stood in place and pondered for a long time. Only then did the three-flowered cat come back to its senses, grabbed Song You's trouser leg with its paws, and looked up at him: "Is that Lei Gong?" ”

"yes."

"So fierce!"

"Don't be afraid of them if you don't do anything wrong."

"Hmm...... "How can there be goblins and ghosts who are not afraid of Lei Gong?"

"Let's go." A man and a cat walked out of the temple. I didn't go far before I heard a few muffled sounds. When I turned my head, there was a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and huge lightning flashed one after another on the lakeside, I am afraid that all the temples of the frog gods will be destroyed, and the water tribes in the lake, the wild birds and beasts in the mountains are terrified.

Song You seemed to see a god carrying a toad, and his figure disappeared in an instant. Zhou Leigong, formerly known as Zhou Kangbo, was born 200 years ago, originally from Pingzhou, and served as the head catcher in Pingdu.

In the later years of the Taizu of this dynasty, Changjing was chaotic, there were many bullies, Gu Shou, who was the prime minister at the time, served as the governor of Pingzhou, and he was not used to the chaos of Changjing and did nothing, and he knew that Zhou Kangbo, the head of Pingdu, was upright and upright, so he transferred Zhou Kangbo to Changjing as the chief arrester.

Later, Zhou Kangbo was really upright, not afraid of power, acting impartially, offended many people, punished many bullies and Yanei, and eliminated many underground evil forces, it is said that even the demons and ghosts that were mixed in Changjing City were found out a lot, but all those who harmed people were slaughtered on the street, and finally the security of Changjing was controlled.

In the end, it is said that he was killed by a vendetta. The people of Changjing were grateful for his selflessness and justice in punishing demons and wicked people, so they worshipped him as the god of thunder.

Later, someone came out with some commentaries, and he played a lot of roles in it, so the people in the north and south of the river knew his name, and as soon as his fame rose, the incense rose, and now his idol temple in Dayan is probably more than the chief official of the Lei Ministry.

When I saw it today, it really lived up to its name. It's just that it's still not the case. Thunder Department Masami was busy with the demons of the troubled times in the north, and it was understandable to ignore this place for a while.

But a small toad spirit who occupies the frog temple does not have to be dealt with by the god of the thunder department, and the god of Jingdao Lake has reported to the heavenly palace twice and has not paid attention to it, and it has taken more than two months, and this efficiency is even lower than that of the human court.

Could it be that all the gods who can subdue demons have gone to the north to subdue demons and eliminate demons? If you don't know enough, you won't think about it.

Song You continued to walk forward, but he remembered the frog god again

The underworld and reincarnation preached by the "Temple Blessing". It's also somewhat interesting. Perhaps, thousands of years later, when future generations listen to ancient mythology, they will feel that the system has been relatively sound, but now is still the time when the system of gods and spirits is gradually becoming perfect.

Taoism was born thousands of years ago. Eight hundred years ago, there was a heavenly palace. Two hundred years ago, the Lord of the Heavenly Palace was not the Red Gold Emperor, and two hundred years later, it may not be him.

The Heavenly Palace Gods are also gradually improving. At present, there is neither an underworld nor reincarnation. However, in recent decades, there have been legends of the underworld and reincarnation, which are actually influenced by many aspects, and Song You has heard people talk about it many times.

This frog god's

When "Temple Zhu" consolidated the belief in the frog god, he deliberately took out the underworld and reincarnation and said, if it wasn't for his spontaneous actions, there would be a lot of room for thinking - could it be that which one in heaven or on earth is trying to rely on the people's faith to unite the underworld?

Song You walked while thinking. Spend the night by the lake. In the middle of the night, I saw the god of Jingdao Lake who poured out all living beings to visit, and saluted him: "I have seen the Taoist." ”

"It's polite."

"Thank you, Chief." The mirror god said,

"I only asked the Taoist chief for help last night, and the 'frog god' was punished by Lei Justice during the day today, and the concubine came to thank him."

"That was done by Zhou Leigong, and it wasn't even a supervision, but it was just a reminder, how dare you take this credit?" Song You thought that she probably didn't dare to go to Zhou Lei Gong to thank her, so she didn't say that she would go to thank Zhou Lei Gong if she wanted to thank her.

"I should still thank the Dao Chief, if it weren't for the Dao Chief's strong mana and inviting Lei Gong, how could this matter be so easy to solve?"

"I have some doubts below, I don't know if the mirror god can answer it."

"Daoist, please speak."

"This kind of thing is the responsibility of the gods of the Thunder Department, but when I talked to Zhou Leigong before, I heard that Zhou Leigong seemed to be completely unaware of the chaos of the frog god here......" Song You sincerely asked the mirror god for advice,

"Could it be that the Heavenly Palace has been busy with something else recently, and the mirror god has reported twice, but it can't be transmitted to the thunder department?"

"Maybe Tiangong also has helplessness."

"How?"

"The concubine body is just a small god, and she doesn't know what the heavenly palace is like." The mirror god glanced at Song You and groaned with a smile,

"It's just that my life experience has told me a truth about the concubine."

"Please advise."

"People are people, and countries are countries, even if countries are made up of people, the ideas of countries are still completely different from people's ideas." The mirror god paused,

"A good person is not necessarily a good official, and even a group of good officials may not be able to form a good country. Once there are more people, there will be no way to think about this, and not from that. ”

"That's ......" is a meaningful and worthwhile phrase.

"Where will the Daoist go after that?"

"Go to Changjing first, and then go east to north."

"I'm afraid it's hard to see each other again in this life."

"The mirror god has been a god here for I don't know how many years, and most people will probably only see each other once."

"After all, the Taoist is kind to the concubine."

"Then it depends on fate."

"The concubine said goodbye."

"Farewell." God is a lazy god, and man is also a lazy man, and after saying a few words, and having done his best of etiquette, he dispersed.

The mirror god returns to her mirror island lake. Song You returned to his sleep. On the third day, I successfully walked around Jingdao Lake, and it took another day to return to Changsheng County.

At this time, it was the fifth day of descent. Changsheng County is full of rumors of immortals on Genting Mountain.
