Li Hua himself couldn't help but be a little excited, he threw away the serious official body of the county teaching, and ran to Houlong Village to follow Guo Dalu to repair some wild fox Zen, and now there is this Danshu iron coupon, which can be regarded as a positive result!

He said: "In the future, not only will the government send a fixed amount of silver and grain to the government every year, but more importantly, when the sacrifice is made at four o'clock in the year, the Science Gate will also be among them, enjoying the incense of the emperor, down to the hundred officials, and hundreds of millions of people across the country! This is extremely remarkable, although there are many cultivation sects in the Great Li Dynasty, but in the past 2,000 years, there are only 127 Danshu iron coupons. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 Since then, the foundation of the Science Gate has been deeply rooted in the Great Li Dynasty, as long as we do not rebel and do not do things that hurt nature and reason, we will coexist with the country forever. ”

Guo Dalu scratched his head: "This Danshu iron coupon is so awesome? I thought that in the Great Li Dynasty, the status of the cultivation world was far above the mortal world, even if you were an emperor, you should be polite to cultivators, but I didn't expect that the royal family could also reward cultivators, and even have such benefits?"

Li Hua coughed: "Although our dynasty respects the cultivation world, the emperor is the supreme of the mortal world after all, managing hundreds of millions of people on behalf of the heavens, so he is known as the son of heaven." The rewards awarded by the emperor are also of considerable benefit to the practitioners. Senior brother in charge, have you ever heard of its mountain weir?"

It's a mountain weir, which is what Dongdong, listen to the name, it seems to be the same as what water conservancy facilities.

Next to Zhu Lao Village Chief said: "This mountain weir is a dam on the Yinjiang River, built more than 1,000 years ago, with this dam, it can retain water in drought, drain water in waterlogging, and can also block the invasion of salty tide in the open sea, which is really beneficial to countless people." Even the kudzu grass fields in this area of our Houlong Village also benefit from its mountain weirs. ”

Sure enough, it was an ancient water conservancy project, Guo Dalu scratched his head: "Was it a project more than a thousand years ago? ”

Li Hua said: "At that time, the official who built it weir was called Wang Yuanwei, who was the county magistrate of Yin County, and he used a thousand-year-old black plum wood to drive piles under the water, not afraid of salt water corrosion, but he didn't expect that there were monsters under the water, and when he laid a black plum wood, the wooden stake automatically floated up the next day. Seeing that it could not be completed, Wang Xianling was anxious, he gritted his teeth, wrote a book to worship the sky, worshiped the heavens, and then dressed in official robes, hugged the black plum wood, and sacrificed the pile with his body, and let everyone lay the pile. The black plum wood hit the bottom of the water, and streams of blood and water came straight up, and Wang County now took the pile with his body, but this black plum wood never floated again, and it was able to complete the mountain weir. ”

Guo Dalu was startled, he never expected that a dam would have to pay human lives to be built, he stomped his feet again and again: "How can this be! How can this be so! The construction of this dam does not need to be so complicated at all, as long as a drainage canal is opened next to it, drain the water in the cofferdam, and then use reinforced concrete as beams and columns, no matter how big the dam is, why sacrifice the pile, it is really a pity!" Guo Dalu originally wanted to say that he was ignorant, but he respected that Wang Yuanwei County Order was a good person, so there was no exit.

Li Hua said: "Senior brother in charge has all kinds of wonderful skills, and the reinforced concrete is magical, but Wang Xianling was an official more than a thousand years ago, and he didn't have such a means as our science gate, not to mention that he heard that there were monsters under the water, so he could only use this method." However, after the deeds of Wang County's order to sacrifice the pile, the emperor at that time was extremely moved, and issued a decree to seal him as its mountain weir and water bo, and set up a small temple next to its mountain weir. ”

Guo Dalu was stunned: "Senior Brother Li, you, do you mean to say that if the emperor issued a holy decree, then Wang Yuanwei would become an immortal?

Li Hua said: "It's not that he came back to life, but he has become a god, Wang Xianling has lost his physical mortal womb, but after becoming a god, he can also manifest his spirit." ”

Guo Dalu scratched his head vigorously, and suddenly asked: "You said that the temple of the Wang County Order is next to its mountain weir, but it is still there?" I want to go and see it!"

Li Hua didn't know why Guo Dalu suddenly wanted to see a small temple in the middle of the night to see a little god who was not famous, but seeing that he had a serious face, he nodded: "Then it is more than ten miles away from Houlong Village, so I will take the senior brother in charge." ”

Guo Dalu didn't bring many people, so he and Li Hua and Brother Hao and the other three people lit torches, rode a few little donkeys and hurried on the road.

Along the stream all the way to the east, all the way is very flat, soon to its mountain weir, under the moonlight it mountain weir is actually a dam, the flat bluestone slab is laid on the dam, now it is the dry season, the amount of water is not much, a dam separates the Yinjiang River stream and the Yao River water outside, the Yao River is directly connected to the sea, if there is no this mountain weir, the sea water will invade the Yinjiang River at high tide, and the tens of thousands of acres of kudzu grass fields around are all salinized.

Li Hua pointed to a small building on the left side of its mountain weir: "Little senior brother, that is its mountain weir Shuibo Temple." ”

Guo Dalu took a look, this Shuibo temple is very old and simple, there has been no incense for many years, the stone incense burner at the entrance of the temple is empty, the cloth curtain that originally hung at the door and the window is only a few strands of rags, swaying with the night wind, the door is gone, as if a person is missing his front teeth.

The three of them took a few steps forward, and suddenly several small beasts escaped from the temple, I don't know whether they were rats or weasels, and they disappeared into the grass next to them.

Guo Dalu frowned: "Why is this temple so dilapidated?"

Li Hua smiled awkwardly: "This temple has been established for more than a thousand years, and later officials have neglected to manage it--alas, in fact, to be honest, it is the sacrificial silver pulled out by the imperial court, and all those villains have been embezzled, anyway, this mountain is far away from the emperor, and no one will come to investigate." This Shanyan Shuibo Temple finally has a roof, and it is good that it has not collapsed in the wind and rain. ”

Guo Dalu walked into the temple, only to see that the temple was dozens of square meters large, with a high platform inside, and a clay statue on it, but it was dressed as an ancient official, smiling kindly, and the gold paint outside the mud tire had already peeled off, revealing the yellow mud and straw inside.

Originally, there was a case table in front of the statue, on which were placed offerings, incense burners, ritual utensils and other items, but those bronze ritual utensils had long been stolen, leaving only a crooked leg of the case.

Guo Dalu frowned: "If the official doesn't take care of it, what about the people in these ten miles and eight townships? It is a project for the benefit of future generations, how many people have received the favor of Wang County's order, but why don't they come to worship him, take care of the temple, and make some offerings?"

Li Hua coughed and said embarrassedly: "This can't be blamed on the people, originally this mountain weir is excellent, and hundreds of people in Yinjiang have benefited from it, and there is a bumper harvest every year, so after the mountain weir Shuibo Temple was erected, the incense continued every year." However, later, Tianyi Pavilion saw that this piece of land was fertile and did not have to worry about the backflow of seawater, so he took it away and planted it into a kudzu grass field. Not only did the people not benefit, but they were forced to plant kudzu grass and suffered all kinds of suffering, and the incense of the Shanyan Shuibo Temple gradually faded. Later, the common people in these four areas could hardly even eat enough for themselves, so how could they come to the temple to offer incense and worship? Naturally, the temple was deserted. ”

Guo Dalu listened, hey, and didn't know what to say.

He circled around the clay statue: "Senior Brother Li, you said that this Li County Order has become a god, so can he show himself?"

Li Hua hesitated: "I'll try to worship him to see if the gods can sense." As he spoke, he took out the incense he had brought with him, lit it, and bowed to the clay statue. A gust of night wind blew and nothing happened.

Li Hua was a little embarrassed: "This Shanyan Shuibo hasn't enjoyed the incense of the world for a long time, maybe the gods are not in place tonight." Let's come back next time we find a sunny day, the gods like light, and when the yang energy is sufficient, it is the most psychic. ”

Guo Dalu nodded, shook his head again, he suddenly stepped forward and saluted the clay statue: "Wang County Order, you are a good person, accept my salute." ”

At this moment, a light and shadow flashed, and a shadow of an official in ancient costume appeared in front of Guo Dalu dimly, and the shadow returned the salute to Guo Dalu: "The little god doesn't dare to accept the immortal gift." ”

Brother Hao rushed to Guo Dalu's side and shouted: "Who is the monster?! If you dare to step forward, the little master will make a move!"

Li Hua hurriedly said: "Brother Hao, Hugh is reckless, this is his Shanyan Shuibo Wang Yuanwei, he has a little spirit to meet us." ”

Brother Hao looked at the shadow, and sure enough, it was a little similar to the mud statue, so he stepped aside.

Guo Dalu looked at Wang Yuanwei's shadow with some curiosity, this was the first time he met a god who was personally sealed by the emperor of the mortal world, but he didn't expect that in this world of cultivation, in addition to practicing by himself, he could become a god and become an immortal, and it turned out that the reward of the imperial court could also make an ordinary person die and become a god.

I still don't know enough about this world of cultivation, so it seems that although the authority of the mortal emperor is under the cultivators of the Great Luo Jin Immortals, there are also some means that can intervene in the world of cultivators. At the very least, the one hundred and twenty-seven families who have received the emperor's reward -- no, plus their own science sect, are one hundred and twenty-eight cultivation sects, and they have a good impression of the emperor, because this is also a way to obtain spiritual power.

Guo Dalu hugged his fist at Wang Yuanwei's shadow: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry to disturb your god, I was curious in the next moment, and I visited Shuibo Temple at night, but I didn't expect to alarm Wang Shuibo." ”

Wang Yuanwei hurriedly stepped aside: "Don't dare to accept the gift of the immortals, speaking of which, the little god has to thank the immortals, the power of the immortals is profound, and the worship of the immortals just now made the little gods get a lot of merit power, so that they can show themselves and meet the immortals." ”

Guo Dalu scratched his head, it turned out that the power of his merits still had such a wonderful effect, and he asked curiously: "Wang Shuibo, if you haven't enjoyed the incense all the time, then, is that considered to be the destruction of the soul?"

Wang Shuibo said: "This immortal, the little god is a god who was sealed after death, and the soul has long disappeared, but a little true spirit remains in the world." If the world remembers me and sacrifices to me, I will remain in the world forever, and when the people forget me completely, the little gods will be destroyed. (To be continued.) )
