Very far away from Kyushu, on the other side of the continent, there is also a plain, on which a group of human races also live, but this place is completely different from the customs of Kyushu......

"I heard that Yan Gong is seriously ill? Is it true?"

"It's true, when I went to visit Yan Gong, Yan Gong couldn't eat and fell into a coma. ”

"Alas, is a sage like Yan Gong going to leave us? If so, I am willing to bear such a pain in place of Yan Gong, and I only hope that Yan Gong can be cured. ”

"Me too, I went to the mountain temple to pray for this, but the mountain god didn't respond to me, maybe because my heart was not pious enough. ”

"It's not a question of piety or not, the mountain god only cares about the things on the hills, but he can't control our life, old age, sickness and death, it's useless for you to worship the mountain god because of this matter. I heard that there is a new temple in Zhangshui, called the City God Temple, which is in charge of this, maybe we should go there and worship it. ”

"It's useless, Zhangshui is too far away from our side, you can't control our side, the gods have their own gods, and the place of management has boundaries, you don't know these common sense, right?"

"How can I not know, of course I know, it's just that I was flustered about Yan Gong's illness and forgot about it for a while. ”

"Because of the illness of a wise man like Yan Gong, who person with a conscience is not panicking? I blame you for being wrong, you are a person worth associating. ”

"Your heart for Yan Gong is the same as mine, and you are also a person worth associating. ”

Outside a wooden courtyard, several groups of people, twos, threes, and threes gathered in one episode, looking at the courtyard with a sad face, their eyes full of sadness, but they could not do anything but sadness, which made them feel helpless, as if they were about to lose the pillars that supported the house that sheltered them from the wind and rain.

A cold girl with a compassionate face and bright eyes, as if she was used to these commonplace, stood in the crowd as if no one was around.

She was dressed in a Taoist robe, with an elegant temperament, clean and dust-free, obviously incompatible with the people around her, but the people around her seemed to be collectively blind, and no one saw such an independent and eye-catching girl.

As time passed, the people around the courtyard accumulated more and more, and a young man came out of the courtyard, looked at the crowd around him, and made a gesture to the crowd with dissatisfaction and tiredness on his face:

"My father just came to his senses, and when he heard that the people were not working, they gathered here and thought that this was not right. Birth, old age, sickness and death, human nature, all the villagers and fathers, don't mind, everyone should not delay the family life for the sake of the father, which makes the father very uneasy. ”

The young man seemed to be talking the same thing as the people around him, but his dress, temperament, and conversation were obviously different from the people around him, as if he were from two different places.

If the people of Kyushu are here, they must be able to see that this young man has a strong "taste" of Kyushu.

"Yan Gong is conscious? That seems to be a great deal. Jiren has his own natural appearance!"

"yes, yes!"

In fact, some people have a different idea in their hearts, and it is possible that a person who is seriously ill and comatose suddenly regains consciousness, but people would rather forget this and are willing to believe this view.

The sadness in the young man's eyes became even stronger, but he forced a smile and said to everyone: "Borrow your good words." ”

After persuading everyone to retreat, the young man hurried back to the courtyard and went straight to his father's bedroom, but he didn't notice that the magical girl in Taoist robes followed him into the courtyard and came to this bedroom.

"How's it going?" There were more than a dozen men and women in front of the hospital bed, old and young, and after seeing the young man come back, he immediately made way for him, and the middle-aged man on the hospital bed who was skinny and weak but had very bright eyes asked urgently after sending the young man back.

The young man said sadly: "Father, people have been persuaded to go back. ”

The middle-aged man who was lying on the bed and was about to die was relieved and muttered, "That's good, that's good." ”

The middle-aged man obviously knew that his life was long enough, first determined in front of everyone that after his death, the young man would continue everything about him, and then in order to let everyone avoid it, he confessed some secret things that only the continuation people could know, and everyone understood and exited the bedroom.

"Xiao'er, I know you don't understand what I do, think that I have loved those civilians more than you and my family in the past twenty years, and even before I die, I am obsessed with it, thinking that this is not right......"

The young man didn't expect his father to say such a thing, he had been admonishing his father bitterly, but his father just didn't listen, obviously his health was not good, and he didn't recuperate, he kept running around for those civilians, and regarded them as more important than his own life, which made him very understanding, and even thought that his father was crazy for a while.

Unexpectedly, when my father returned to the light, he finally came to his senses and clearly realized ......

The young man then heard: "Actually, there is a reason why the Father is doing this. ”

Cause?

What's with?

"There's a secret involved. ”

The secret?

What's the secret?

"Xiao'er, you should have heard of the City God Temple, right?"

In the past two hundred years, the City God Temple has slowly begun to be built in one city after another, although it accounts for less than half, but it is not a rare thing.

Chenghuang, like the mountain god and water god here, is a magical existence here, can have a divine domain, and has great power, which is completely different from the customs and customs of Kyushu.

Although he had never been to Kyushu in his life and had only heard about it from books and elders, he had always been proud of being a native of Kyushu and proud of being a wealthy family in Kyushu.

Although it was a descendant of a wealthy family who had to flee from Kyushu after being defeated.

However, their heritage is not broken, and their roots are always there.

"It took the family nearly two hundred years to figure out that the mountain god and water god here are the handiwork of Dianhua Daxian. ”

This secret is really beyond the expectations of young people, it is said that there are 108,000 miles away from Kyushu, and there is even the legend of this Dianhua immortal.

Dianhua Daxian, the young man is naturally no stranger, in the genealogy he studied, the frequency of Dianhua Daxian is very high, and it even looks very incredible, it feels like it is made up.

In the ethnology, this Dianhua Daxian is a real land immortal, who seems to be omnipotent, even more powerful than the mountain god and water god here.

Unexpectedly, when his father was dying, he actually heard the name of this Dianhua Great Immortal from his father's mouth.

The god of the mountain and the god of water is the handiwork of the great immortal?

Is this possible?

Although the legend left by the family is that the Dianhua Daxian is very powerful like the land immortal, he has not seen it, and the mountain god and water god around him, he has really seen it, and he does not think that the god with such magical power will not be the opponent of the Dianhua Daxian.

Not to mention that the mountain god and the water god are the handiwork of the Dianhua Daxian.

With the cognition of young people, I instinctively didn't believe my father's words.

It's just that when my father is dying at this time, he can't interrupt his father.

Alas, I pretended to believe that it was good to be filial.

"Not only the god of mountains and water, but also the temple of the city god is also the handiwork of Dianhua Daxian. Speaking of this, the seriously ill middle-aged man's face became ruddy, and he spoke with confidence, and he couldn't see that he was seriously ill and about to die just now.

Naturally, young people still don't believe in their hearts.

How is it possible, the handwriting of the mountain god and water god Dianhua Daxian more than 600 years ago, and the Chenghuang Temple that appeared more than 200 years ago are also the handwriting of Dianhua Daxian.

The young man knew at this time that the old people in the family were too superstitious about the Dianhua Daxian, anyway, as long as it was related to the gods, they all went to the Dianhua Daxian, and it was all the handwriting of the Dianhua Daxian.

"We don't have to think about the god of mountains and water, this is for those demon races, in order to better protect the human race living on this plain, but the god position of the city god can be fought for. According to our exploration and verification, to become a city god, it is difficult to say, simple and simple, that is, to serve the people of a place wholeheartedly, with enough positive reputation, there is a certain probability of becoming a city god and becoming a god-like existence. ”

Becoming a god after death?

There is no way to verify this kind of thing, and some people believe it?

Also verified?

Alas, these elders of the family are really ......

The girl who followed in stood quietly next to her like a background board, and she didn't react until she heard this, she looked up in surprise and swept the middle-aged man on the hospital bed, shook her head and said secretly:

"Sure enough, you can't underestimate these big families, even if they were defeated during the Kyushu Rebellion six hundred years ago, you can't underestimate them. It only took more than 200 years for the other party to explore the truth about the mountain god, the water god and the city god, which is really amazing!"

The seriously ill middle-aged man seemed to sense the coming of death, and he didn't know where the strength came from, so he suddenly held the young man's wrist tightly, gasped, and said in a hurried and solemn manner:

"Xiao'er, remember, if you fail for your father and don't become a city god, you must inherit your father's legacy, inherit the people, accumulate fame, our family, we must produce a city god who is in charge of the life and death cycle of the people in a place, understand? This is the most important thing, remember, be careful, be careful...... Remembering ......"

After speaking, his body was crooked, and he died of anger.

The young man finally understood why his father was so persistent, it was rumored that the city god was in charge of the life and death cycle of the people in a place, which was too important for the family, this was for the "big plan" to continue after the death of the family.

Although there are many Chenghuang Temples and there are many rumors among the people, the young people do not fully believe that the Chenghuang has the magical power to control the life and death cycle of the people in a place, which should be a false rumor.

However, my father has passed away, and it is useless to think about it more, thinking that my father has left me forever, and the memory of my father can't help but come to my heart, and I can't help but cry out with sadness.

It's strange that all the memories are good memories, those bad memories, as if they were all forgotten by him at once.

The family members who were waiting outside the door, hearing the cry of the young man, immediately realized something, broke into the door, and saw that the middle-aged man on the bed was indeed dead.

In the same space, as if in two different dimensions, what everyone couldn't see was that the soul of the middle-aged man had left his body and floated in the air, and his soul was about to be polluted by the evil qi in the air, and a shallow golden light suddenly gushed out from his body, forming a light shield to protect himself from the erosion of these turbidities.

It's just that these golden lights are a little thin, as if they could be exhausted at any time, and at the same time, there is a suction force from the sky, constantly pulling something deep in his soul.

Although the force of this traction is not large, it is better to persevere and never stop.

"Is this what happens after a person dies? This layer of golden light is the merit I have gained for more than 10 years of dedicating myself to the people? I have been doing things for the benefit of the people for more than 10 years, and I have received so little merit?"

If the merit is exhausted, what should he do?

Thinking of this, the middle-aged man was a little panicked, and instinctively felt that there would be a great horror on him.

"It's not Chenghuang! Alas, it seems that I failed!" the middle-aged man sighed in disappointment.

After the middle-aged man became familiar with his current state, he turned to look at his relatives who were crying bitterly because of his death.

The middle-aged man felt a pain in his heart, shook his head, and said: "Could it be that I was wrong? If I didn't insist, my body wouldn't collapse so quickly, and I should be able to live another twenty or thirty years, until my grandson grows up, isn't it?

The middle-aged man swept around, suddenly found something, and stared at the only girl in the Taoist robe who was standing.

Just now, I didn't even notice it...... Was it my negligence, or was it the other party's supernatural powers?

Seeing the other party standing here in a grand manner, while his family turned a blind eye and didn't notice it at all, he immediately understood that it was the latter.

Who is the other party?

Why is it here?

What is the purpose of the other party?

The middle-aged man suddenly thought of something, pointed to the Taoist robe worn by the girl, and said, "This is the Taoist robe, ......are you a Taoist priest?

I remembered that she was the eldest disciple of Dianhua Daxian, and our family has a portrait of her handed down, but it's just ......

In the portrait, the other party's age is even younger than it looks now, and he didn't even recognize it for a while.

What is the name of the other party, what is the name of the road, alas, the memory is too long ago, I can't remember it clearly.

I vaguely remember the other party's common name...... By the way, the other party's common surname is Li!

The middle-aged man immediately saluted respectfully to the other party and said, "I've seen Fairy Li." ”

Recognize me?

Although there are some surprises, it is also expected with the previous dying secrets.

Li Fei looked indifferent, didn't mean to talk nonsense with the other party, flipped his right hand, and a bronze mirror appeared, and threw it to the other party casually: "You are qualified, refine it, you are the city god here." ”

The first is the latest.
