Song You didn't go far, but he saw a horse in front of him.

It's a maroon horse.

The appearance of the Northern Yuan horse is a little thin, and the color of his fur is really conspicuous in this ice and snow.

As soon as he saw it, the horse ran over.

"Huh?"

Song You was a little surprised, and when it stopped in front of him, he couldn't help asking, "Why did you come here?" ”

“……”

"That's a fate."

The Taoist seemed to be talking to himself.

The cat behind him was overjoyed.

It's really fateful.

The place that separates it from the jujube red horse is obviously the other direction of Changjing, and this place is not close to Changjing, this horse actually ran here, and just ran here to meet him.

It should be because of the strong aura of Beiqin Mountain.

"Then let's go."

“……”

"We are still more than a month away from Beijing, so you can be wherever you want during this time."

The Taoist said as he walked along the snake path.

The red horse followed him.

After climbing over a mountain, I soon saw the lake in the mountains below, the hut by the lake, the mountain wind seemed to be indifferent to it, and the lake was as calm as a mirror. There was a small boat on it, and a man sat on it fishing, as quiet as a painting.

Song You stood here and stared for a moment, thinking to himself, snake immortals are not like snakes, did they also learn from the original Fuyang Patriarch?

Just like the laziness and aggressiveness of the Black Feather Daoye.

What will Sanhua Niangniang have in the future?

The last time I came, I knew that the snake fairy and the Fuyang patriarch had an old relationship, and I already had some emotion, but now that the master is gone, the Black Feather Daoist has also gone to see the world they have seen, and when they come here again, they naturally have new feelings.

Time is changing.

Who knows what it will look like before it comes?

Song You walked over.

From a distance, I saw the figure on the fishing boat making a rod reeling action, as if he had caught a fish, put the fish away, got up, slowly propped the boat to the shore with a penny, and disembarked with a bucket.

When the young Taoist walked up to him, he happened to be holding a bucket in one hand and a fishing rod in the other, looking at him, and the same sentence:

"There's nothing else in the mountains to entertain you, especially at this time, when you have to catch a few fish."

"I've seen the snake fairy."

"No courtesy."

"The tutor is gone."

"I know, at the beginning of the year, that starling flew here to look for me."

The snake fairy said very calmly, it seems that since the beginning of this dynasty, this kind of thing has been seen a few times.

It was only when he walked towards the hut with a bucket and a fishing rod that he stopped slightly and said to him: "It's all like this." ”

"Yes."

Song You also replied calmly.

Then he followed the snake fairy into the thatched hut and closed the firewood, and there was a stove burning in it, but it was not cold.

The snake fairy sat down slowly, looking at the movement, as if it was really like an old man in the world and said to him: "I heard that there is a movement in the north, compared to the previous ones, it is not small. ”

"Laugh."

"The swallows in the sky outside ......"

"It's the descendant of Yan Xian, he is independent by nature, he loves open places, just let him fly in the sky."

"Then sit down."

"Thank you."

Song You also sat down.

The lighting in the house is very poor, and the outside is already dark, and there is no sun, so the light that comes in is even weaker. But this dim and visible environment, lighting a fire, makes people feel comfortable.

"I heard that Doctor Cai put a copy of the first half of the latest version of the "Cai Yijing" here in the snake fairy?"

"You're welcome."

"Although I only met the snake fairy three years ago, I know that the snake fairy is an old friend of the master, and he is the elder of the teacher." Song You said very calmly, "Since you are an elder of the sect, why should you be polite." ”

"You weren't so casual three years ago."

"I figured it out." Song You touched the cat and said.

"Let's figure out a lot of things down the mountain."

"There are quite a few."

Song You replied truthfully.

This is indeed one of the meanings of Fulongguan descending the mountain.

"Indeed, I have a copy." The snake fairy said leisurely, "It lives up to the trust, and it is intact." ”

"Here in the snake fairy, it can be intact, but in the hands of Doctor Cai and the students, there will be all kinds of accidents." Song You asked bluntly, "It's not a coincidence, right?" ”

"Who knows......"

The snake fairy picked up a long-handled clay pot without hurrying.

Shake the clay pot and empty the pot for water.

"The snake fairy lives in Beiqin Mountain, and he didn't notice the abnormality over there?" Song You asked.

"You think too much, it is a taboo for the gods to harm mortals, let alone interfere in such an obvious thing that can benefit all peoples. Hehe, there are quite a few such gods, as if you beheaded the one. The snake fairy put the long-handled clay pot in his hand on the stove and fried it, "Even if it is done by the gods of the Heavenly Palace, it will not be easily noticed." ”

"Reasonable."

Song You nodded.

There are indeed a lot of gods who are not gods, and even in turn there are many gods who plague the world, and almost every generation of Fulongguan has to spend some effort on this, and the typical one is the old friend of the snake fairy, Fuyang Daoren, which can be called a god cut.

Lei Bu is a martial god, that Fu Lei Gong was born as a military general, he is a second stunned, and he can't be blatant, and he has to quibble a few words when he is discovered by Song You, not to mention other gods of the Heavenly Palace.

Except for a few lucky people in the Heavenly Palace, if the others are not virtuous, they are people who play with people's hearts, anyway, if the gods want to win people's hearts, they must either rely on strength or other means. Most of these gods were human spirits when they were alive, and they had a longer lifespan after they died, and they had more amazing magical powers, so they naturally had more patience and means, and it should be difficult to grasp the real evidence.

It's like a few twists and turns of Dr. Cai.

A rainstorm in the sky, the hut was broken by wind and rain, it is a normal celestial phenomenon, and a mudslide caused by the turn of the earth dragon is absolutely impossible to cause an earthquake specially caused by the gods for this trivial matter, and this level of earthquake requires a great god to spend a lot of energy to create.

If nothing else, let's talk about the most recent.

Cai Shenyi's apprentice fell into the water and wet the medical scriptures, and was blown away by the wind when drying, there were no waves or whirlpools on the river surface, no wind and rain, no water monsters, and even the boat did not leak, it was the apprentice who carried too much weight and did not have much experience in the boat, and he stepped on the slip and did not hold back, so he fell into the water, and then whether it was drying, pressing with small stones, and drying the place, they chose it themselves.

Even if there were gods, it was only a gust of wind.

It's just an ordinary mountain breeze.

"What does the snake fairy think?"

Song You simply asked him directly.

"In the troubled times, I followed your ancestor and saw too many gods. After helping that mortal to create Dayan, I also had a lot of opportunities to become a god, and later the court gave me the name of a snake fairy, which is almost a god of the earth, at least the heavenly palace saw me, and it would not be embarrassed as an ordinary monster, and some people came to worship. The snake fairy said slowly, and then smiled, "Over the years, my greatest understanding of the world and gods is that the people of Dayan actually lack true reverence for gods. ”

Song You listened to it, but his expression froze.

With his opinion, he can naturally hear it-

The snake fairy seems to be talking casually, and even the first half of the sentence is not boundary, but in fact, it talks about the most essential thing at once.

The people of Dayan lack the essence of the gods and the reverence for the virtues of the gods, and this reverence may only be possessed by some gods when they become gods.

What is this reverence?

Take it closely, like He Xiang a few decades ago, when the world was in crisis and the people were suffering, he stood up and introduced excellent rice varieties from the East, and issued good policies to return the land to the people, solving the crisis of the people, and he knew that he was going to cause public anger and no good end, but he also died generously. A poem before his death, sung all over the country, until now has been used by many officials to spur themselves, or to pretend to be dedicated to the people and hang on their lips, the people really did not bear him, spontaneously built a temple for him, to help him rank in the immortal class, the reverence at that time, is this kind of reverence.

But as time passes, the world will slowly forget his exploits, and get used to the things around him that have brought him, because they were born with it, and they have always felt that it has always been so.

Even if future generations read and heard from the books, they felt emotionally and deeply felt in their hearts than the group of people who were pulled out of the suffering by his own hands. If there is such a person once in a while, when he reads about it, he can clearly feel his greatness, as if he has crossed time and space to see that scene at that time, it is extremely rare, and the gods will be pleased with it.

And when will people in the future worship God?

Most of them will be when they have something to ask for.

This is the reason for not raising idle gods.

As early as in Xuzhou, he taught Mr. Folk to use the gods to drive away evil spirits and eliminate demons, and on the grassland of Yanzhou, he also instructed a group of ghost soldiers to benefit the people to seek the position of the god of the earth.

The gods depend on the people for their existence, but in fact they are interdependent and mutually exploitative.

One of the drawbacks of this relationship is that it is often unbalanced.

"The so-called Three Treasures Hall for nothing, most people in the world often only go to the gods when they have something to ask for. This is the meaning of praying for God and worshipping Buddha. Even if they worship God regularly, most people want to pray for the help and blessing of the gods, otherwise they are afraid that they will not be remembered and blamed by the gods, and the essence is not to revere God, but to revere the magic power and supernatural powers of the gods. The snake fairy continued to say slowly, with a smile on his face, "When you have something to ask for, you can only run diligently when you go to the temple, the more urgent the matter, the more pious your heart is, and the more powerful the incense will be, these heirs who want to come to Fulongguan are very clear." ”

Song You listened and thought slowly.

The snake fairy is actually quite right.

This is one of the problems.

There are really gods in this world, and it is not that it is wrong for people to ask God and worship Buddha when they encounter something, but that gods often do not have the power that people believe.

The so-called eternal, boundless, and omnipotent are all touted by the gods in the world, and they are also the means used by the gods to ensure incense, in fact, the great things about the gods do not lie in these. And the magic power of the gods is also limited, and there are often no countless clones with three heads and six arms, and they can't take care of the thousands of people in the world.

For example, the sick people who most often go to the palace temple to ask God and ask for Buddha, the gods they worship may not necessarily be able to cure diseases, and even if they can cure diseases, they cannot cure tens of thousands of people in the world.

Some of the gods are very transparent in comparison.

It's like the one who wrote directly at the door of the temple, "You seek fame and fortune, he is lucky, and I pity me for having no heart, how can I come up with any ideas?" "The hall curbs the smoke and clouds, the hall is lined with bells, and the laughing people offer this mud and wood, and a lot of money is wasted. "The king of Yue Shenjun of this couplet told you directly, I can't help, I don't love to worship.

Refreshing, transparent, and heroic.

He is an amazing god.

Some gods can't do it, they have to live on this.

"If you want to fool the people, why not the court?" The snake fairy said with a smile as she handed him the freshly fried tea.

Thanks to the alliance leader of the "reincarnation of the universe" boss, or two, bow and show your chest! Bow twice!
