Chapter 2 Haotian Xuanqiong Jade Emperor God

Looking up at the temple on the top of the mountain, which had been slightly dilapidated after years of tempering, Huangfu Tianyi slowly exhaled a breath of hot air and quickly walked up the snowy path.

Although it is the middle of winter, the temple is surrounded by unknown wild flowers and grasses, which is quite a strange sight.

It stands to reason that in the deep winter, it should be a scene of withering flowers, withered flowers and trees, but here it shows the strangeness of a hundred flowers blooming.

This strange phenomenon has existed since Huang Futian remembered, and it may be a mysterious place for outsiders, but it has long been strange to the villagers of Guojiazhuang.

The older generation said that this is the manifestation of the Jade Emperor, and the gods bless the children and grandchildren of the villagers of Guojiazhuang, and they are safe and sound.

However, with the rapid development of society and the development of science and technology, some people say that it may be because of the qualitative changes that the land has been affected by some influences, so such a miracle will appear.

In short, there are various theories, and some people have said that they have reported the matter to the relevant department of the state and asked them to investigate! But they were stopped by the older generation.

Because Guojiazhuang is located in a remote area, the road is rugged, surrounded by mountains on three sides, and the road is far away from the county seat, so in the end, this matter will not be resolved.

With the development of society, more and more young people in Guojiazhuang Village have gone to work in other places, and some have even moved with their families, leaving only some elderly people.

Most people except for the occasional New Year's festival come back, almost usually do not see a figure, more than ten years have passed, Huangfu Tianyi has also grown from the original immature child to a young man in his twenties.

Smelling the faint fragrance emanating from the road, Huangfu Tianyi took a deep breath with an intoxicated face and looked up at the temple in front of him.

I saw that the entire temple wall was made of blue bricks, and the temple entrance was made of two dilapidated wooden doors.

As soon as Huangfu Tianyi stepped forward and pushed it gently, the temple door made a "crunch, crunch" sound, accompanied by bursts of dust and snow falling on Huangfu Tianyi's shoulder, patting the dust on his shoulder, Huangfu Tianyi walked in with steps.

As far as the eye can see, the yard is the same as outside the gate, the yard is full of blooming wildflowers and weeds, and the tops of these flowers and plants are dotted with snowflakes.

A cold wind blows, flowers and plants sway, and snow falls to the ground, but there is also a different scene.

There is a pine and cypress in the middle of the courtyard, as thick as the mouth of a bowl, which is not only devastated in the cold wind of winter, but it is more pine and cypress, standing up to the sky.

The pine and cypress tree is based on the courtyard of the main entrance of the Lingxiao Treasure Palace, and there is a three-legged six-eared stone tripod under the pine and cypress tree, which is covered with a thick layer of sand, which was originally used for the villagers to offer incense.

However, due to the fact that in recent years, there are very few people left in the village, and only some elderly people rarely come here, and the Lingxiao Treasure Hall has become even more desolate over time.

Huangfu Tianyi bypassed the stone tripod and looked at the plaque at the entrance of the main hall and temple, which read four golden characters "Lingxiao Treasure Palace"! It's just that because no one has cleaned it up for a long time, the entire entrance of the main hall is covered with cobwebs and thick dust at this moment.

Huangfu Tianyi turned around and looked around, found a broom in the corner near the courtyard, and then stood on the stone pier next to the door with the broom to clean up a little.

This is what he must do every time he comes to the temple, and he can't remember how many times he has come to the Lingxiao Treasure Palace, maybe the fiftieth time, maybe the hundredth time......

When I was a child, as soon as I got out of school, I would go to the temple with the children of the neighbors to play, and the village was still very lively at that time.

During the New Year's holidays, people often come to the temple, or worship or beg, burn incense, and make offerings, but with the passage of time.

More than ten years have passed, and some of the people who once accompanied him have been reduced to dust, while others are also separated, leaving him alone.

The human body is a hundred years old, not attached, going with the flow, persistent, but how can it be good alone?

Patting the dust on his body, Huangfu Tianyi smiled slightly, looked at the spotless plaque at the entrance of the temple that had been cleaned by himself!

In winter, the days are short and the nights are long, and although it is only 5 p.m., the afterglow of the setting sun is already fading away.

The black night was about to cover the earth, and the cold wind became even more cold and biting, and Huangfu Tianyi forced the door of the Lingxiao Treasure Hall to close.

Lit a few half-red candles placed in front of the incense table, and the flaming red candlelight illuminated the entire Lingxiao Treasure Hall, giving the originally cold hall a little more warmth.

Standing on the empty hall, Huangfu Tianyi looked up at the nearly two-meter-tall statue, although he may have been here hundreds of times when he was a child, but at that age, he only knew how to play, and he had never really looked at this statue carefully.

At this moment, after a closer look, he found that the statue of the god was carved lifelike, and after looking at it for a long time, he couldn't help but bow his head, as if there was a faint majesty invisibly oppressing himself, and this discovery made Huang Futian feel stunned.

According to Huangfu Tianyi, unless people are particularly wealthy, they use gold, silver, copper, and iron to cast statues of gods and Buddhas, and ordinary villages or ordinary temples are generally fabricated from clay.

The gold, silver, copper, and iron used to cast the statues of gods and Buddhas are not to mention how long it takes, and the money alone is probably an astronomical amount.

According to the old people in the village at that time, most of the temples in the village were made of clay.

Without exception, the statue of the Jade Emperor in the Lingxiao Treasure Hall is also made of clay, but because Guojiazhuang is north of the Yellow River Valley, the soil used is red.

This clay is rich in iron, aluminum, oxide and sticky, so the people living in the Yellow River Valley like to use it to cast statues of gods and Buddhas.

Huangfu Tianyi knelt on the futon and bowed to the statue of the Jade Emperor three times, then got up, looked up and down around the statue and looked left and right, he estimated that the statue of the Jade Emperor was nearly two meters high, about one meter five or six wide, and the whole body was poured and fabricated with red clay, and then carved and formed and crossed with a layer of gold paint.

Looking at this figure, wearing a nine-chapter law robe, wearing a crown of twelve beads, holding a jade wat with eight characters written on it, "Haotian Xuanqiong Jade Emperor God" written on it, and serving the golden boy and jade girl next to him is completely the dress of the emperors of the Qin and Han dynasties.

"Haotian Xuanqiong Jade Emperor God" "Isn't this the honorific title of the Song Dynasty? Could it be that the temple here was built during the Song Dynasty?"

Isn't that more than 1,000 years old? How is this possible? How can the history of more than 1,000 years be so well preserved? The Terracotta Warriors and Horses of the Qin Emperor have not been preserved so well, right?

Huang Fu Tian was surprised, could it be that there was a mistake in the history books? At this moment, Huang Fu Tianyi frowned, and kept muttering in his mouth.
