God and mystery

Chapter 237 Phoenix Mountain Palace

"It turned out to be the temple of Yue Yinping! No wonder such a god with a strange temper and even killed people who uttered foul language has not been overthrown by the common people. Instead, it is still located in the prosperous place of Qiantang, enjoying the incense of all people."

"Zhu Yuanzhang, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, treated these loyal ministers and good generals in the Song Dynasty very well. The Yue family completely rehabilitated Zhaoxue after Song Lizong and was crowned king. In addition, the Ming people set up temples for sacrifices. The government also treats such temples Asylum, this is the so-called grace of the two dynasties."

The ancients attached great importance to loyalty and filial piety, and there are many folk temples, which were erected in mourning by later generations and worshiped for generations in the local area. They never believed that such gods would do anything vicious to them. If gods kill people, they must It was the murdered man who committed some evil deed.

And this kind of absolute belief actually leads to the mixture of folk gods, which are far different from the gods.

People's gods come from various sources. Some people replace them artificially, some wish to become gods by chanting incense, some ghosts replace gods, and even monsters pretend to be gods.

"Qiantang County, right by the West Lake, it's not far from here, isn't it the Lin'an Mansion of the Song Dynasty!"

Ji Xiang just remembered that the capital of the Southern Song Dynasty was in Hangdi. Qiantang was the first county of Lin'an Prefecture, but it was a few days away from the ancient Lin'an Prefecture, but it was the number one county under the rule of Lin'an Prefecture.

The Fengbo Pavilion in Dali Temple in Lin'an is where Yue Fei died.

"This is not bad, hit my fist!"

Ji Xiang was very happy!It's really hard to find a place to go through iron shoes, and it doesn't take much effort to get here. Last time I went to the Yinshan School, I saw the Yinshan School's dojo was wiped out, and I couldn't find any trace of Song Ting. After flying out of Dingjia City, the place they came to was actually the capital of the Southern Song Dynasty!

Based on the situation in the Forbidden City back then, combined with the extremely powerful demon that the Yin Ping Lady had dealt with before, now I may have found another lair of Song Ting.

Ji Xiang made a decision to go against his "ancestor" at that time.

fishing.

The demons that Lady Yinping got rid of might have been raised by Song Ting. She has been here for so long to kill demons and subdue demons, and she is just an ordinary folk god with not very strong magic power, but no one has ever troubled her , which makes sense.

However, the people behind the raising of demons will not let her continue messing around like this. This time I helped Lady Yinping, maybe it will attract the attention of these people behind, and maybe soon, someone will come here to visit she is gone.

"It not only allows me to indirectly kill demons and eliminate demons, but also helps me find the stronghold of the Longevity Palace that may exist, and it can also quickly restore my body and spirit. After all, with the increase in the number of manifestations, a large number of incense wishes will also increase. Accelerated gathering."

"And what comes from this is a steady stream of good deeds."

Four birds with one stone, this deal is absolutely cost-effective, all that is needed is a little incense and help in the early stage, Ji Xiang was very generous about this, and performed a wave of sculpture flashes for the silver bottle lady on the spot.

Use this to tell her that your powers are sufficient, you can use them as much as you want, and if you still can't use them up after fighting the monsters, you can just throw your skills into those ravines.

But the statue of Zhenwu flashed for a moment, which shocked Lady Yinping, but immediately she was overjoyed:
"Emperor Welling! Are you granting my request?"

"Thank you the Great!"

She was overjoyed, and Ji Xiang also appropriately distributed some incense to her. Under the effect of this incense, the damaged parts of Lady Yinping's body recovered quickly.

"Her body and spirit recovered so quickly. Sure enough, is it because of the foundation of faith?"

Ji Xiang looked at his share of incense, and after giving it to Lady Yin Ping, the injuries she had suffered before disappeared visibly to the naked eye, and those erratic places on her body, which were the lost form and spirit, now began to re-condense .

The vicious aura of a mere primordial spirit can't resist the incense from Ji Xiang at all. The Zijin Dan has just been completed, and the evil aura under the pure yang state will immediately melt away when it touches Ji Xiang's incense. left.

It's just that Lady Yinping's body and spirit recovered quickly, which made Ji Xiang also wonder, it was very difficult for her own incense to condense her body and spirit, how could she distribute it to others, as if it was cured by medicine?
Is it true that Tang Seng's meat is useless except for Tang Seng himself, and everyone else can live forever if they eat it?
And Lady Yinping was blessed by the statue of Zhenwu. She looked at everything that happened to her in surprise. The place damaged by the primordial spirit and demon recovered instantly, and the spirit of the demon disappeared without a trace!

But after she was surprised, when she looked at the statue of Zhenwu again, instead of thanking her, she brought a deep awe of the unknown.

"...Great Emperor, did you really descend into this little temple of mine?"

Emperor Zhenwu's divine throne was held high in the sky of Fuli, inspecting the world in all directions, Lady Yinping started to murmur in her heart at this moment, thinking, could it be that Emperor Zhenwu really did it, not Is it the statue's Welling?
But who is using Zhenwu's god, and who has such a great ability?
And who can obtain the imperial court's permission to receive Zhenwu's god?

"Maybe I'm thinking too much."

Lady Yinping returned to her own statue, while Ji Xiang hid in Zhenwu's statue, not caring about the little girl's thoughts.I am both a true martial artist and not a true martial artist, and some have the form and spirit of a white-faced true martial artist, rather than the divine status of the Great Emperor Zhenwu.

"Strictly speaking, White Face Zhenwu and Emperor Zhenwu are not the same existence, but one of the predecessors of Zhenwu."

The Yinping Lady returned to the statue to rest, but the troubles in the Yinping Lady Temple had just begun.

On the second day, the yamen servants had already told the magistrate of Qiantang County that the temple owner appeared to reprimand them, and the monks of Lingyin Temple were also moved after hearing the news. Except for the young monk in white, they came all at once Three great monks.

"Four arhats, are you really trying to pry something out of my mouth?"

Ji Xiang's practice was interrupted again, and he was very unhappy. After all, because of the arrival of the Qiantang county magistrate and the monks of Lingyin Temple, the incense in the temple was in a downturn. There is no way for the pilgrims to come in, it is like a monthly income of one hundred thousand suddenly drops to one thousand and five.

Of course Ji Xiang didn't take kindly to these people.

Come here without some incense?

Fortunately, Ji Xiang didn't need to show any power this time. The Yinping Lady emerged from the statue and came to the four arhats at once, and asked dissatisfiedly:

"I heard what happened to you before, and you dared to take the statue of Master Zhenwu away from my temple. Did you get my consent?"

"Masters of Lingyin Temple, have you gone too far? I advise you to leave here as soon as possible."

There was another layer of murderous look on her heroic face.

When she was going out, these monks came to move her things, and now that she knew about it, how could she have a good face.

After all, the power of the Zhenwu statue was the key to saving her life. If the monk in white took the statue away that day, her Zhenwu spell would not be able to borrow the power, and she might have died at the hands of the primordial spirit monster. up.

Then he looked at Qiantang County Magistrate:
"Master Zhou, our friendship is not shallow. I often come to your wife and daughter whenever there is something to do. First, I am grateful for the many good deeds you have done to the people of Qiantang County. Second, because you are devout and have a virtuous ancestor For the sake of it, after all, although you are not an upright person, you are still a good official, but I didn't expect you to bring these monks to snatch my incense and take things from my temple, and let me down."

The magistrate of Qiantang County was speechless for a while. If it was said that the white-clothed monk took the initiative and had nothing to do with him, it would seem that he was shirking responsibility. Moreover, the white-clothed monk also had a little friendship with him, so he was thinking about how to defend himself , just among the arhats, an older monk rescued the county magistrate and folded his hands together:

"Amitabha! Yue Shizhu, what happened last time was indeed the disrespect of the young disciple. The old monk will accompany you on behalf of the young disciple. There are two things to do here today. The first thing is indeed for the sake of this true warrior. The statue is here, but the second thing is for you."

Lady Yin Ping laughed: "For me? You monks come to look for me, this woman, it's really impure."

The white-clothed monk felt that the words of Lady Yinping were very insulting, but the other three monks said nothing about it. Instead, the old monk looked at the white-clothed monk who was about to interrupt and warned him:
"The so-called arhat removes all the troubles in the world, kills the thieves of troubles, understands the meaning of inanimate, and cuts off the confusion of seeing and thinking in the three realms. If you are moved by one or two words, your mind will not be stable. How dare you call it Luohan Guo? ?”

The monk in white put his palms together and retreated immediately.

The Yinping lady said to the old monk in a calm manner: "Master Jingxian, this child is your apprentice? Is your family style so unsightly? Teach him to take things indiscriminately?"

The old monk recited the Buddha's name again: "Amitabha! The poor monk has neglected his duties. When he returns this time, let him copy the Shurangama Sutra ten times so that he can see his nature with a clear mind and not be deceived by evil thoughts. Then let him come to the temple. Serving the incense for one year, I don't know about the punishment of Master Yue for this."

"no."

Lady Yinping's face was solemn: "I don't want to be in the same temple as this eminent monk. I'm afraid that after a year, my merit box will disappear."

The monk in white frowned, his mood fluctuated, and he didn't dare to look up.

The old monk was very happy, because the Yinping lady could say such a thing, which means that the matter is over, humiliation and so on are trivial matters, and even the emperor cannot escape the finger in life. give pointers.

"Well, poor monk, let me tell you in detail about the second matter."

Lady Yinping was puzzled: "Why do you start with the second thing?"

When the conversation got to the point, Master Jingxian also spoke solemnly, but instead of answering her question, he asked rhetorically:
"You, did you go out yesterday to subdue demons?"

Lady Yin Ping nodded: "Yes, how is it?"

Master Jingxian: "The place to subdue demons is in Phoenix Mountain...?"

Lady Yin Ping asked in a deep voice: "How do you know? You monks are still following me!"

"I'm going to subdue demons, what are you going to do? If you don't come to help me, are you going to kill me?"

All of a sudden, the atmosphere in the temple was tense, and Lady Yinping felt that these monks had malicious intentions, so Master Jingxian immediately explained: "Master Yue, don't be angry, it's not that the poor monk is following you, the poor monk is following you in the name of a person. Guaranteed, from the beginning to the end, Lingyin Temple is completely unaware of what happened."

"It's just that this evil spirit will appear in Phoenix Mountain. It's really beyond our expectations. The reason why we know this news is because an expert came to Lingyin Temple and told you about your appearance in Phoenix Mountain. That's us."

"That's why the poor monk came here and wanted to ask, you are responding to the prayers of the people this time, so who is this prayer and who sent you to Phoenix Mountain?"

"That place is where the imperial palace of the Song Dynasty is located. Demons who dare to occupy the imperial palace as their lair must go there to kill them, but we want to know who discovered this."

Lady Yin Ping asked: "It doesn't matter who told me to go, it's me adapting to the world, not you, and who is that expert you speak of? Master Jingxian, as Lingyin One of the four great arhats in the temple, is there anyone you can call an expert?"

"A cultivator in the Pure Yang Realm?"

Master Jingxian: "The master claims to be the ancestor of the Yulong Taoist Temple, but the poor monk has never seen him, so I can't be sure what he said is true, so the poor monk will go to the Yulong Taoist Temple next time. Go with the poor monk."
