The Ferry of the Heavens: Hong Kong Comprehensive Start

Chapter 402 World Situation
"Master Daoist, I've been stuck here since I ascended to the throne of God. I'm completely blind to the outside situation, and I don't know anything about it. I also ask Master Daoist to explain the situation outside to me." After [eating] some wine and vegetables, Ling Yaodong also You're welcome, and asked Lin Jiu directly.

Well, thanks to the film and television works he saw in his previous life, he has great trust in Uncle Jiu's character. Although he is sometimes arrogant, sometimes black-bellied, and sometimes pretending to be serious, he is a good person.

Lin Jiu also had a good impression of Ling Yaodong, so he told him what Ling Yaodong wanted to know.

Only then did Ling Yaodong realize that he had indeed traveled to the Republic of China.

To be precise, it was the end of the Qing Dynasty.

It is now the 34th year of Guangxu (1908), and Cixi is still alive.

Unlike the world of Hong Kong, which has no extraordinary power, this world is an extraordinary world full of demons, ghosts, gods and Buddhas.

Especially now in the last years of the dynasty, the court's dragon spirit is loose and the legal net is loose. There are anti-Qing forces from all sides, fighting endlessly, and there are demons and ghosts in troubled times. Tea poisons the world, and the people are like animals. Life is very difficult.

Lin Jiu was originally a monk of the Maoshan School, and because of his extraordinary talent, he was qualified to enter the blessed land of the Maoshan School to practice.

At that time, when he was young, Lin Jiu sighed that the world was difficult and there were many ghosts and ghosts. In order to save the people from the fire and water, and to cast down demons, Lin Jiu separated from his childhood sweetheart Lianmei and went to the mountain to practice Taoism.

When he returned from his studies, he found that his childhood sweetheart had been embraced by Long Nanguang, a son of a large family.

Lin Jiu was quite disheartened and didn't dare to disturb others, so he settled down in Jiuquan Town, Xiangshan, helping people with acupoints, catching ghosts and exorcising evil spirits.

Because of his high skills, he has gained a lot of fame in the Xiangshan area.

Many big families will spend a lot of money to invite Lin Jiu to handle related matters.

In fact, many of these situations were mentioned by Lin Jiu in one mouth, which was made up by Ling Yaodong based on the film and television works he had watched in his previous life.

Just as he expected.

This world, similar to the previous one, is a comprehensive world formed by the fusion of many film and television works.

It's just that the last one was Hong Kong Comprehensive World.

And this one, maybe it should be called the spiritual world.

Ling Yaodong asked if Lin Jiu was the best contemporary disciple of the Maoshan School.

As a result, Lin Jiu said modestly that there are many talented disciples of the contemporary Maoshan School, and he is only one of them, but he is far from being the best.

Not to mention, the four major direct disciples of Maoshan faction's current master Xuanyuan Zhenren (characters in the plot of "The Era of Zombies") are all outstanding people, especially the big disciples who practice [Lightning and Thunder Fist], Shi Jian, who goes by the name of [Lei], is the most outstanding.

(At the end of "The Age of Zombies", [Lei] embraced the beautiful woman, she is the biological mother of Shi Jian's son Shi Shaojian.)
The first commandment of the Maoshan School is to oppose good and evil and fight for life.

In this troubled time, the common people are living in dire straits, and many people died of injustice and resentment.

These corpses are buried underground, and if the environment is special, a special magnetic field will be generated, leading to necrosis.

This is what the West says.

The Eastern saying is that the corpse is moistened by the earth's energy, and a mouthful of resentment with obsession, combined with Yin energy, will lead to the transformation of the corpse and become a zombie.

There are still a lot of zombies in this era.

Therefore, Master Xuanyuan, the contemporary head of Maoshan, often takes the four major disciples, as well as a group of disciples who eliminate demons and guard the way, to attack everywhere to eliminate zombies.

It was also influenced by this sect leader, after the disciples of the Maoshan sect had completed their studies, they would all go down the mountain and use their methods to subdue demons and demons.

Like Lin Jiu, who helps people catch ghosts in Jiuquan Town, Xiangshan, Guangdong.

And Lin Jiu's lineage also has two juniors, one senior.

A younger brother settled in the mountains and fields of Shaoguan and started a business of exorcising corpses. Firstly, he helped the poor people who died in a foreign land to return to their roots, so as not to breed resentment and turn corpses, so as to accumulate merit, and secondly, to make a living and make money.

Another junior went to Guangxi, built a Maoshan dojo in Guangxi, and took in several apprentices, who were the best among them.

(Guangxi is a frontier land, so here comes the question, why did the frontier royal family appear in Guangxi, and later turned into zombies?)

As for that senior brother, he is not high enough to be low, and he is covered in a lot of stinky problems. Lin Jiu looks down on him and doesn't know what he is doing now.

These are the things Lin Jiu said about his sect.

This world is so big, of course there is more than one monastic sect like the Maoshan School.

There is also the Heavenly Dao Sect (the sect of Mao Xiaofang in "The Zombie Daoist"), the Jingong Sect (the sect of Zhong Jun's secret book in "The Zombie Daoist") who is good at formations, and the Tianshi Mansion on Longhu Mountain. Meishan Buddhism is active in the Meishan area, Lushan School originated in Fujian, there are sword immortals on Luofu Mountain, Wudang School has martial arts, Shamanism in Heishan Baishui, the hometown of Manchu Qing Dynasty, and Lamaism prevailed in Mongolia and Tibet, and Lamaism is divided into There are four sects of yellow, red, black and white, as well as the White Lotus Sect and the Tianli Sect, which take rebellion as their mission.

In addition, many industries also have their own extraordinary power.

For example, each of the lower nine streams has its own practice system, although most of them are heretics.

In the industries related to the dead, there are also special occupations such as Huangquan Corpse Collector, Yin and Yang Corpse Sewer, Paper Maker, Tattoo Master, Mojin Captain, Mountain Removing Taoist, and Corpse Warlock.

Trackers, in the platoon gang established by the platoon people, there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers.

In craftsmen, bricklayers, and other handicraft industries, there are also descendants of [Luban Book] who are good at various techniques of Nightmare Town...

In addition, there are gods in heaven watching the world mercilessly, running the way of heaven, there is the imperial court in charge of heaven, founding the country and erecting the pillars of heaven, the official law is like a furnace to build the dragon's law net, and there are mountain gods from all over the world, Shui Bo, who checks for omissions and fills in the gaps. , monitor the Quartet.

This is the practice system of the Central Plains.

Overseas also has a unique practice system.

For example, there are head-down masters in Nanyang.

For example, pay attention to the priestly way of being with the gods, and the knightly way similar to martial arts.

There are also various monsters, such as monsters that can become werewolves and vampire bats.

In recent years, due to the close exchanges (beatings) between China and overseas, domestic practitioners occasionally deal with them, so it has spread.

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… ...........

When Ling Yaodong heard this information from Lin Jiu, he sighed that this world is really wonderful.

Let a hundred flowers bloom!
Then Lin Jiu talked about the matter of the gods, or in other words, not only the affairs of the gods, but also the affairs of all gods.

Don't know since when.

It is becoming more and more difficult for the gods to manifest themselves in the world.

It's not that you can't.

Rather, whether it is a god who integrates conceptual authority or an earth god who relies on Shinto talismans, it takes more divine power to appear in the world than before.

The more powerful the god, the more terrifying the power it needs to consume.

The incense and wish power brought by consuming a lot of divine power is completely out of proportion.

This also caused many gods to be unwilling to appear in the world.

The result of not manifesting the Holy Spirit is that the power of the incense burner will decrease more and more.

At the same time, beliefs from the West also squeezed into the land of China, taking away a lot of incense and vows that originally belonged to the gods of China.

China is different from the West.

The West is a monotheistic religion, the Trinity, and the power of all beliefs is in one body.

But Huaxia is polytheistic and pan-believing, and a large proportion of the incense and vows are collected by the heavens, and then distributed to the gods and the earth according to a certain proportion.

Those great gods don't necessarily need these incense and vows.

But those earth gods, especially the low-level earth gods, especially the underground earth gods in remote areas, are in great need of these incense and vows.

How many lands would fail without them!

Ling Yaodong understood this kind of thing immediately after hearing it, and he had heard it countless times in his previous life-transfer payment, eat financial food!
But Ling Yaodong did understand.

A land lord like him in the wilderness.

If there is no [financial] appropriation, it would have been rushed to the street!

But in fact, Ling Yaodong's predecessor really hit the streets!
Because there seems to be a problem with the [financial] allocation, the incense and vows that can be allocated to him are getting less and less. In the end, the predecessor fell to the altar and died.

This is the way of the gods, success is also a god, and failure is also a god.

There is another situation.

This world seems to be rejecting those powerful gods, and the more powerful the gods are, the more they reject them.

In the past, those great gods could rely on statues, positions, or even god names to descend to earth at will, but now they want to come down, and the price they have to pay is extremely high.

Unless it's something very important.

Moreover, the world is not only rejecting those gods, but also rejecting other worlds.

The Three Realms of Heaven, Earth and Man.

The human world is Ling Yaodong's current world.

The earth realm, should be said to be the ghost realm, or the underworld, is the dark side of the world, the place where turbid energy gathers, and the place of reincarnation.

As for the heaven, the Taoists call it the Immortal Realm, and the Buddhists call it the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss. The place where the heavenly court where the Chinese gods are attached is the other pole of the world.

Now the human world is rejecting the heavenly and earthly realms.

Because of the power of reincarnation, the earth's rejection is not obvious, but the rejection of the heaven by the human world is quite exaggerated, and it has already affected all aspects of things.

For example, when a Huaxia monk's merits and virtues are complete, if he wants to ascend to the heavens, he will not be able to get the guidance of the fairy world, and he needs to find a way by himself.

For example, the spells of some monks are to borrow power from the gods, and after the world rejects them, the divine power transmitted is also greatly reduced, and the natural power will also be reduced.

For example...

All in all, facing this situation, life is difficult for practitioners, and life for gods, mainly earth gods, is even more difficult.

Over the years, there are countless people who are in despair, unable to get enough incense and vows, and their spirits and souls have disappeared.

The number of earthlings who are still [alive] is quite limited.

Originally, those local gods cooperated with the imperial court's dragon spirit law net to suppress the demons and ghosts in the responsible area.

Now, the ghosts are gone, and it is impossible to suppress them. Therefore, ghosts frequently occur among the people, and they have to rely on Buddhist monks or heretics to resist.

But the number and strength of monks are limited.

Manpower is sometimes poor!
So many times, many things are not taken into account.

There will be many tragedies.

When Lin Jiu was talking about these things, he drank an extra glass of water and wine in depression, and said in a muffled voice, "Men of my generation, I can only ask for a clear conscience and do my best!"

Ling Yaodong didn't speak, just nodded.

Lin Jiu drank another glass of wine, stood up, cupped his hands to Ling Yaodong, and said, "Lord Land, it's getting late, I'll take my leave first!"

"If I have the chance, I will definitely visit more often!"

"Okay! Welcome!" Ling Yaodong also stood up.

"I hope the Lord of the Land will work hard to live." Lin Jiu said with a flushed face.

"I will work hard." Ling Yaodong said with a slight smile.

Lin Jiu greeted his apprentice A Xing to leave.

Ah Xing was a little anxious, "Master, I haven't finished eating yet!"

Lin felt that his face was about to be lost, so he gave him a hard look.

Ah Xing suddenly didn't dare to speak.

Ling Yaodong secretly smiled, and said, "Master Dao, there is still a lot of food left, so you can take it back. If you stay with me, it is just a cheap bird and beast in the mountains."

"Yes, master." Ah Xing looked expectant, and then he saw his master's gloomy face, and quickly lowered his head again.

Lin Jiu turned around, faced Ling Yaodong, and said, "I made the land master laugh at me, I'm so rude!"

Ling Yaodong shook his head, didn't say anything, but used his divine power to pack up the remaining food, and then flew to Ah Xing.

The joy on Ah Xing's face could hardly be concealed.

And the disgust in Lin Jiu's eyes could not be concealed.

He glanced at Ling Yaodong with a wry smile.

But Ling Yaodong said, "Master Dao, I didn't know you were coming this time, and I was in a hurry. When you come next time, I will definitely treat you well."

"Okay, okay!" Lin Jiu didn't speak, but Ah Xing agreed happily.

"Go back and clean you up!" Lin Jiu glanced at Ah Xing, then turned to Ling Yaodong and said, "Okay! I'm waiting for the land master's banquet!"

"Farewell!"

After finishing speaking, Lin Jiu grabbed the back of Ah Xing's neck and walked away quickly.

He was afraid that if it was later, Ah Xing would continue to embarrass him.

They quickly disappeared from Ling Yaodong's sight.

I saw that the stone table and stone bench transformed by divine power disappeared.

Ling Yaodong silently glanced at his divine power, his face showed pain.

Originally there were 360 ​​points of divine power, but now there are only 320 points of divine power left.

It's only one night!

If 40 points of divine power were consumed every day, then 360 points of divine power would only be enough for Ling Yaodong to live for 9 days.

Ling Yaodong suddenly felt a serious sense of crisis, "No, we must find a way to develop stable believers."

"Otherwise it's too precarious!"

"Even if you have golden fingers, it's useless!" Ling Yaodong thought in his heart.

He looked at the sky, it was already pale in the east.

I didn't expect the night to pass so quickly.

As soon as he thought about it, his soul retracted into the statue. Although he has become a god now and is protected by [Shinto Talisman], the sunlight will not harm him, but the divine power consumed during the day is still more than that at night.

It's okay to be left or right, so I might as well be inside the statue.

Although... it's not easy inside the statue, it feels like a cage house in Hong Kong.

"Let's make do with it for the time being. When we have enough divine power in the future, we must improve the living environment." Ling Yaodong thought to himself.

But thinking that I only have 320 divine power left.

"Forget it, don't think about it yet."
