The Local Lazy Man System

Chapter 124: Deity

Seeing that there were only 200 honor points left, Ye Yaorong gritted his teeth and exited the lottery interface. There was no way. The remaining 200 honor points were very useful.

I don't know, Ye Yaorong almost forgot when he saw it. In just three or four months, he had so many skills, which made Ye Yaorong feel like he was a superman.

November 23, 2015, Monday, the twelfth of October (small) in the lunar calendar, 2015. Ganzhi, Yiwei year Dinghai month Guimao day.

Haircutting, consecration, dismantling, dismantling, decorating, burial, starting work, trading, vouchers, hanging plaques, bed placement, planting.

Entering the house, moving, making stoves, praying for blessings, offering sacrifices, getting married, thanking the earth, digging wells, building houses, and visiting diseases.

This is the day when the old people in the village who know feng shui fortune-telling started working in the village based on the yellow calendar. In China, building houses, building roads, and marrying a wife must choose the days based on the yellow calendar to ensure smooth sailing.

The yellow calendar, or the imperial calendar, is generated on the basis of the Chinese lunar calendar, with many calendars indicating good and bad days.

According to legend, Huangli was created by Emperor Xuanyuan Huangdi, so it is called Huangli. It is also commonly known as "Tongshu" by the folks. However, because the word "shu" in Tongshu is the same as "luo", it is also called Tongsheng because of avoidance of taboo.

The main content of the yellow calendar is a table of the twenty-four solar terms, the lucky and bad luck of each day, and the luck of the zodiac.

However, before the construction started, there was a ceremony to worship the mountain gods. In the countryside, people are still relatively feudal. Sacrifice to the gods is required before opening mountains and building roads.

From the perspective of rural people, opening mountains and building roads are all about disturbing the gods. If you don't sacrifice to the gods, you can easily disturb the gods if you respect them.

Once annoyed by the gods, the gods will bring disasters, which is a terrible thing, so the old people in the village attach great importance to them. A few days ago, the things needed for the sacrifice have been purchased. Ye Yaorong didn’t understand this aspect. Just sign. Just give money.

Anyway, Ye Yaorong knows a little bit more clearly. Any money can be caressed about. The only thing you need to spend on sacrifices is that you can’t give less, and you must buy the best things. If you are poor, you can’t be poor. , That is very disrespectful.

No one wanted to make the legendary gods unhappy, not to mention that Ye Yaorong grew up in the countryside, and he was very superstitious about these magical things.

At around 7:30 in the morning, all the young, old, and women from the village came to the entrance of the village to participate in the ceremony to worship the mountain god.

Everyone put up a few square tables in the middle of the road. On the tables were all kinds of tributes, most of which were fruits, in the middle were big pig heads, and some incense, paper, candles and the like.

You must know that offering sacrifices to gods comes at the cost of gifts. People can bow down to the gods and bow their heads, burn incense and burn paper, but the most affordable way of offering sacrifices to the gods is to offer sacrifices.

In the eyes of the ancients, people have seven emotions and six desires, and so do gods. Since people have prayed to the gods, they should be willing to offer their best things to sacrifice in order to win the gods' favor.

However, people have different preferences, and different gods have their own tastes, so there are many kinds of sacrifices. Mainly meat-based.

After all, in the eyes of the ancients, among many foods, meat is the most. In the age of primitive gathering and hunting, meat was hunted for their lives. When primitive agriculture and animal husbandry developed, meat was still extremely valuable.

The ideal life conceived by Mencius in ancient times was based on the importance of being able to eat meat at the age of 70. The gift of a disciple's apprenticeship was only two bundles of dried meat, which shows that meat is rare.

Because of this, meat has become the main sacrifice to the gods. The carnivorous animals used for sacrifice in ancient times were called "sacrifice", referring to livestock such as horses, cattle, sheep, chickens, dogs, and hogs. Later, they were called "six animals". Among the six animals, the most commonly used are cattle, sheep and pigs. Fish, rabbits and game can also be used. It is a sacrifice, but it is not a "sacrifice".

In addition to "sacrifice", the food used as a sacrifice also includes grains and grains, called "Sheng Sheng". Fresh and tender fruits and vegetables are also commonly used sacrifices in folk sacrifices. After Buddhism was introduced to China, the fruits were more abundant in the "zhai sacrifices". In addition, wine was also a common sacrifice for gods.

As for the origin of the sacrifice, it is said that in the distant ancient times, the ancestors of mankind cut the bushes, waded through the mountains and rivers, opened up the land, placed the grassland, and after being beaten by wind and rain, thunder and electric shocks, they were born in their hearts The awe of nature believes that the mountains and rivers of the world, the sun and the moon, and all things have their own gods.

Later, there was religious thinking, and this concept of Shinto became more specific and practical. Huaxia people actually have a very broad mind.

I always believe that since gods come to protect mankind, of course the more the better, so they always come. Buddhism has Buddhist gods, Taoism has Taoist gods, although Confucianism has not developed a religious form or organization. , But Confucius once said that "smartness and integrity are the gods", which is tantamount to setting a standard for the "god".

Under this concept, many sages, virtuous officials, great Confucianists, and famous generals in the history of the country, as well as loyal ministers, righteous men, filial wives, and filial sons who have recorded aspirations in various places, are in line with the "god" and have significant deeds , Born to be British, and spiritual after death, have the opportunity to erect temples.

Given China's vast land, large population, long history, rich cultural relics, and so many sources of gods, it is not surprising that there are these gods and Buddhas in China, protecting the common people of the world and receiving incense from all directions.

In addition to the indispensable sacrifices ~www.ltnovel.com~ the incense pillar is also indispensable, because in ancient legends, people cannot directly communicate with the gods, but to burn the incense pillars to the gods. Express your wishes.

The common saying goes: "Going into the temple to worship the gods and calling people in the house" is a kind of respect and politeness. When you enter the temple to worship the gods, you must offer incense, but it does not mean that the gods will inhale these incense. This is a way of greeting the gods.

"Begin to worship the mountain god, play music and set off a salute."

As soon as eight o'clock arrived, Ye Kongming, who was the chief priest of the sacrifice, shouted loudly, announcing that the ceremony of worshipping the mountain **** had officially begun.

After setting off the salute, I started to light candles and incense, and began to worship, and I had to recite a bunch of sacrificial texts that Ye Guangrong didn't understand. Ye Guangrong didn't care about anything, as long as he bowed down like the main village staff.

It took half an hour. The ceremony of offering sacrifices to the mountain gods was over, and the sacrifices were withdrawn. These sacrifices were taken back to share with everyone, so that everyone would feel immortal. After all, in people’s consciousness, these After the sacrifices are given, the gods will only eat a little bit, and the rest will be given to the people.
