Wrote more than a dozen classics in two months.

All the countries in the world have acquiesced in their hearts that Yang Chen is the king of the present generation.

Whenever Yang Chen was sold, the scholars of all countries were collectively silent to make way for Yang Chen, otherwise, they would definitely be crushed by Yang Chen to the point of being incomplete.

As for Confucianism and Taoism, everyone Cai Xing!

It was silent, and no one from the rest of the family went to him again, and as for promoting his book, he didn't want to think about it.

After Yang Chen finished writing more than a dozen classics, he stopped writing, held a bamboo cane, and traveled all over the world.

Today I arrived at the capital city of Chengyang Prefecture.

The temple of the eldest deity in the city is located.

Changsheng Niangniang is worthy of being the god with the highest status in Chengyang Mansion and the widest audience, her temple occupies a large area, the construction is very magnificent, the incense candles are long day and night, and the melons and fruits are worshiped in all seasons.

In front of the temple, there are many good men and women, who arrive at the Changsheng Niangniang Temple early to worship the Niangniang.

"Immortal Niangniang, the most like to serve her believers, every day, whoever comes the earliest, who is the first to worship the first incense, will be more and more protected by the mother. ”

"Liu Dacai is over sixty years old and has no children under his knees, because he once waited for days and nights in front of the temple of Changsheng Niangniang, eating and drinking in line to show his sincerity. ”

"Niangniang's temple, after dark, will no longer be open, but the rich man Liu is still lining up outside the temple, waiting for the next day to come, several times, when Liu Dayuan is outside, because it is not the first incense, Liu Dayuan outside the incense, continue to line up. ”

So again and again, again and again, finally moved the mother, opened the door of convenience, so that this Liu Yuanwai got the first stick of incense, and the incense was not long ago, and the thirty-second concubine of Liu Yuanwai was pregnant. ”

Yang Chen was in front of the Immortal Niangniang Temple, and when he heard the words "the first stick of incense", his brows furrowed, "I didn't expect that in this world, there is such a thing as the first stick of incense." ”

The custom of burning incense has existed in the ancient Zhou Empire.

It originally originated from early sacrificial activities and has a long history.

Broadly speaking, incense burning can be divided into sacrificial incense burning to worship gods and incense burning in daily life.

Sacrifice and incense burned later, whether it is to worship gods and Buddhas, to offer to ancestors, to worship ghosts and ghosts, to burn incense.

And the temple will be burned, and the house will be burned.

Since worshipping the gods has increasingly become the main role of burning incense, the so-called burning of incense today is mainly to worship the gods.

The true meaning and purpose of burning incense to worship the gods is to express respect, gratitude and remembrance to the gods.

To dye into purity, dedication to life, enlightenment of life, so that the natural blessings and wisdom are abundant, and all wishes come true.

In the eyes of the incense burner, he can communicate with the gods and spirits through burning incense, convey his wishes to the Buddha, and make his wishes come true

Folk believers believe that burning incense can not only show a believer's piety, but also be the first to convey his wishes to the gods, so that the gods can sense and realize their wishes.

Of course, some people burn incense because they have done something bad and hope to pray for the protection of the gods by burning incense.

The gods and spirits in the hearts of the common people are the same thing, they often treat them vaguely, do not distinguish them, and do not want to separate, as long as they can bless themselves and bring good luck to themselves, no matter which way the gods have to pay respect.

Therefore, the belief of the common people is often not based on sincere belief in the object of worship and supernatural powers, but more as a secular utilitarian purpose.

We are also very practical about ghosts and gods, and worship them for the sake of good weather and to eliminate calamities. Our sacrifices are like treats, dredging, and bribery, our prayers are making wishes and begging, and the ghosts and gods are power, not ideals, and are a source of wealth, not justice.

Believers believe that burning incense on Chinese New Year's Eve can get a safe and smooth year, which brings great psychological comfort to people.

Burning incense can show the devotion of the believers, and on the other hand, it will bring good luck and blessings to the believers, so that their wishes can be conveyed to the gods as soon as possible, and their wishes will be fulfilled and greatly blessed by the gods. And for many, the pursuit of good luck and good fortune is a constant theme.

Staying in the temple, fighting for the first burner incense at night is a very common thing in the Changsheng Niangniang Temple of Chengyang Prefecture.

Although Yang Chen didn't appreciate such a thing of fighting for incense in the Immortal Niangniang Temple, he didn't have any other thoughts, after all, this was the freedom of others.

Queue up all night, rub shoulders, throw incense on the wall, and speculate at high prices.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the front of the Changsheng Niangniang Temple is crowded with people who grab the first incense, and the people standing at the front of the line are waiting in line all night.

The phenomenon of "grabbing the first incense" is becoming more and more popular, and queuing up all night has become the norm.

Every year, all kinds of accidents occur large and small, either burning hair, burning face, or there is a fire hazard.

"It is a misunderstanding to burn the incense, whether to burn the incense or not, has nothing to do with piety or not, and will not get more blessings because of this, if you believe that there will be more blessings if you burn the incense, it is to make a deal with the gods, not to believe in God. Yang Chen shook his head and said.

Walk into the temple.

This temple of the Immortal Niangniang is very vast, and as soon as he entered the temple, Yang Chen completely transformed his divine power into a body of talent and aura.

Under normal circumstances, a deity cannot easily set foot in the territory of other deities without the consent of other deities.

This is because, once you do this, it means that you are going to challenge another god, and it means that you are fighting a god.

As soon as the talent is prosperous, the life character becomes extremely expensive, and ordinary gods cannot withstand the kneeling of a person with a very noble life, and a person's life character, once it is expensive to a certain extent, it can be said that it is auspicious in trouble, and it turns evil into good fortune, even if it is a demon, a monster, a fairy and a sage, can not interfere with the actions of such a person.

The temple of Changsheng Niangniang occupies a very large area, in a courtyard of the temple, there is a sacred tree, this sacred tree, it is said that it has grown in the temple of Changsheng Niangniang for more than a thousand years.

When Taizu of the Great Zhou Dynasty had not yet founded the country, this big tree already existed.

However, at that time, there was no temple of Changsheng Niangniang in this place, and Changsheng Niangniang only appeared 500 years after the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty and has been worshipped to this day.

However, this immortal mother is not an officially recognized god, but a wild god that is not recorded and the people spontaneously believe.

On the sacred tree, there are cloth bags hung one by one, and inside the cloth bags, the wishes of every believer are hung here, hoping to be blessed by the mother and make their wishes come true.

"It's so demonic, and it even smells of blood. ”

Yang Chen's brows furrowed as soon as he entered the courtyard, and doubts suddenly arose in his heart, "The temple of the gods, majestic and sacred, cannot be stained with blood, how can there be a faint smell of blood in it?"
