Weird recovery, I can't hide my god's identity
Chapter 226 The No. 1 Temple in the World
Chapter 226 The First Temple in the World
The commotion Chen Jingle caused on Lu Island was quite big.
Well, it may be that Ludao is too small. Even a sneeze will cause a vibration.
Fortunately, it only targets non-human creatures.
Without some drastic measures, some things still think they have the final say in the world.
When a person's desires expand to the point where they cannot be suppressed, they will do things that are beyond the scope of reason, and the same is true for non-human creatures.
Don't think they can be so well-behaved.
If you don't have an obsession, you won't be able to stay in the world at all.
They hold power beyond the secular world, but there are no laws that can restrain them. The underworld is unknown, and the underworld stationed in the world of the living needs to be rebuilt.
The world is in disorder!
In this situation, it is inevitable that some people will have crooked intentions.
This time's stealing of incense is an obvious example.
I don’t know what’s going on on Lu Island. The management of these special creatures is loose, even a bit laissez-faire.
Is it an individual case or a group?
Anyway, Chen Jingle wanted to curse.
"What kind of plane are you doing?"
It is understandable that Fujian has rich folk customs, but we cannot let them be so arrogant just because they are related to folk customs.
So you, Ludao, will just take a one-size-fits-all approach and let it go, right?
What diode thinking!
What he didn't know was that the head of the Ludao Civil Affairs Bureau was also slamming the table and cursing at this moment.
As a sub-provincial city, Ludao has a higher administrative level than Mindu, so the civil affairs bureau here is of high quality compared to ordinary provincial capitals.
"Damn it, the notice has already been issued, requiring all districts and streets to register properly and to ban all illegal worship of evil gods. What's the result? One or two of them are pretending to obey me but secretly disobeying me, right? They are all afraid of causing trouble and the public's dissatisfaction. Fine! If you can't do it, then don't do it!"
The roar coming from the conference room could be heard from far away.
The leader got angry and everyone in the Civil Affairs Bureau lowered their heads. No one dared to speak loudly and they could only observe a moment of silence for their colleagues.
Just accept the scolding honestly, at least after I scold you you won’t scold us anymore.
Next door reception room,
Liu Qiang was drinking tea leisurely.
Of course he heard it, and not only heard it, but heard it clearly, and even wanted to laugh.
Why?
Because he is the head of the Civil Affairs Bureau of Haicheng.
There is no need to say much about Haicheng's current situation. The Venerable God just left, and all the arrangements have been made. There is basically no need to worry about any more weird things happening in the future. The slightly weaker ghost messengers can be dealt with, and the ghost king and his subordinates can be dealt with.
The Haicheng Civil Bureau, which used to be the main force, has gradually become a tool for doing miscellaneous tasks, just like the cities that Chen Jingle had visited before.
But for comrades in the civil department, this is a good thing.
It’s a great time to catch up.
……
The door of the reception room was pushed open, and a middle-aged man with thick eyebrows, big eyes, a square face and hair as short as needles walked in cursing. He didn't care that there were people in the room at all, and slammed the door shut.
"What's causing all the fuss?"
Liu Qiang put down the teacup with a smile.
The middle-aged man, Xie Jianguo, the head of the Ludao Civil Affairs Bureau, said unhappily, "Old Liu, you came here on purpose to make fun of me, didn't you?"
The two have known each other for many years and were colleagues before being transferred to the Civil Department. It is harmless for them to make a few jokes in private.
"Hey, that's too polite. Am I that kind of person?"
Liu Qiang said this, but his face was wrinkled with smile.
Xie Jianguo sneered, unable to help but say sourly: "Ah, yes, yes, yes, you are relaxed now, you can even wander around and come to my place to drink tea. Unlike me, I don't know how long I can hold on."
I couldn't help but sigh when I said this.
Just when we were about to breathe a sigh of relief, something went wrong. Although it didn't seem like a big problem, no one dared to be careless when it involved that important person.
So there was the scene of getting angry in the conference room just now.
Liu Qiang laughed: "I can only be lazy for these two days. I guess the new appointment will come in two days. I have to support other brother cities. It will be difficult to rest by then. Don't worry, in my opinion, according to the style of the Lord of God, it is likely that Lu Island will be included in the protection scope in the next two days. Lu Island is not big."
Xie Jianguo sighed, "Who knows? According to previous speculation, he would stay in Haicheng for at most a week, but in the end, didn't he extend his stay to half a month?"
Liu Qiang paused for a moment and said, "The problem of obscene worship is indeed too big to be solved. It's time to deal with it."
He had also thought about this matter privately, but this topic was indeed sensitive in Fujian, and there was more to consider than just the surface, and even the higher-ups had to study it over and over again.
Speaking of business, Xie Jianguo said with a serious expression, "I think so too. This time, that person obviously held back, otherwise he would never have let it go so easily. However, no one can guarantee that there won't be a next time."
The so-called "improper sacrifice" is as the "Ancient Sage" said: "Sacrificing to something that is not suitable for sacrifice is called improper sacrifice. Improper sacrifice brings no blessings."
In short, lewd sacrifices refer to sacrifices that are not in accordance with ritual system, sacrifices that are inappropriate, and sacrifices that are indiscriminate.
The gods of Daxia are divided into three major groups: gods of heaven, gods of earth, and human ghosts. The gods of heaven and earth have long formed a stable consensus, and both are within the scope of government-permitted sacrifices.
Only human ghosts, according to the "Book of Rites" "Sacrificial Laws": "The sage kings established sacrifices. They worshipped those who applied the law to the people, those who died in hard work, those who stabilized the country with hard work, those who could resist great disasters, and those who could defend against great disasters."
It can be seen that the ghosts that can be worshipped by people, apart from the ancestors of each household, can only be those who have made contributions to the country and the local area. For example, the City God.
However, in the Fujian area, apart from those heroes who have real names and definite contributions in history, the gods worshipped in many temples do not have a complete and traceable origin. Some of them even deliberately deceive ignorant people to build temples for them so as to steal the incense from the world.
This is what is often called obscene sacrifice.
This phenomenon is very common, and the people of Fujian do not think there is anything wrong with it. The idea that "whether it is useful or not is fine, and worshiping won't make you lose any weight" is deeply rooted in people's minds.
There are also many people affected within the organization.
After all, they are all native Fujian people.
It would have been fine before the strange resurgence, but after the strange resurgence, some people in the organization still did not take it seriously, neglected their duties, and just sat there doing nothing, which is really infuriating.
Xie Jianguo was not going to turn a blind eye this time. He directly submitted the report to his superiors and began to make preparations.
A storm, centered on Lu Island, is about to sweep across the entire Fujian area.
……
Chen Jingle was not aware of this.
He had no interest in the city of Ludao. After occupying every main temple and city god temple, he got the system reward and slipped away.
[Congratulations on successfully occupying all the territory temples in Ludao Prefecture! ]
【You get 500000 incense points. 】
[You have obtained the City God Seal of Ludao Prefecture. ]
[You have obtained the Judge's Order.]
…slightly…
[You have obtained the Flower Blooming Moment of the Thirty-Six Celestial Gangs.]
[Flowers bloom in an instant: Thousands of golden flowers appear on the top of the head, with pearls hanging from the necklaces, one after another, shining brightly. This is Qingyun's way of protecting himself. Note: "This is the defensive magical power that Yuanshi Tianzun once used."]
Apart from the regular rewards, only the moment when the flower blooms, one of the Thirty-Six Heavenly Gang Techniques, is worth being happy about.
Just look at the last comment to know how powerful this magical power is.
This was the first proper defensive magical power that Chen Jingle acquired.
He has mastered a lot of other attack and auxiliary skills, but he lacks a defensive power, and he has been relying on magic weapons before.
With Chen Jingle's current strength, he certainly cannot compare with Yuanshi Tianzun, but it should be no problem for him to have invincible defense at the same level!
Find a place where there is no one to demonstrate it. There are golden flowers on the head, auspicious clouds around the body, and golden light behind him. It is really handsome.
If you ever need to show off your power in public, this look will definitely be a huge hit!
……
After dealing with the matters on Lu Island, we moved directly to the neighboring Licheng.
Licheng, also one of the three prefectures in southern Fujian, has a more mixed religious belief than Haicheng and Ludao due to historical reasons.
After all, Licheng is a thousand-year-old port and the starting point of the ancient Maritime Silk Road. In addition to local beliefs, there are also many foreign beliefs.
However, in recent years, development has gradually failed to keep up, and the economy of the urban area is not as developed as that of the counties below, giving people a sense of separation.
In the old days, Licheng had a total of thirty-six places and ninety-four districts, each with a district master.
The situation is even worse now.
For example, Donghai Town has twelve natural villages, but there are 69 temples, including 42 temples for kings and princes, 20 temples for other folk gods such as Guandi and Mazu, 6 Buddhist temples and 1 Taoist temple.
There are not only village lords, but also county lords, such as Qingshan King, the lord of Hui'an.
In addition to the Lord of Hui'an, the women of Hui'an are also famous.
However, all these pale in comparison to the number one temple in the world.
When he first heard about this temple, even Chen Jingle felt as if his cognition had been subverted.
If I have to describe it in one word, it would be "abstract"!
I have seen stone sacrifices to gods, spirits, and even various animals and plants in nature, but I have never seen a heroic altar set up for an atheist materialist.
In the words of one netizen, "The fantasy of this incident is like a forced insertion that ignores the rules of the game. People who first learned about the existence of this temple probably experienced a brief brain blank. They did not expect that these two seemingly different identities would one day be seamlessly connected."
Yes, this is a temple dedicated to the martyrs.
There are no ancient temple bells here, but there is a revelation call at six in the morning;
There is no lingering Buddhist chanting here, but there are various loud military songs;
There are no murals of gods here, but there are warriors riding dragons.
Doesn’t it look absurd and incongruous?
However, when you think about it carefully, there doesn't seem to be anything wrong.
Isn’t this also a martial temple in essence?
It’s just that the heroes being commemorated are not ancient heroes, but modern heroes.
This special temple named "Twenty-Seven Martyrs Temple" was planned and built by an old lady named Zeng in 1993.
This great-grandmother almost died under enemy fire during the war, and it was five soldiers who saved her with their own lives. Later, she found ways to build this temple, and invited the other three martyrs who died that day to come in and worship them together with the 24 martyrs who died in Xisha Bay. Thus, the 27th Martyrs Temple was completed.
(It is not convenient to write more details, because it is easy to be censored if it involves real history.)
Later, this military temple even became a patriotism education base recognized by the local government. During special holidays, students and soldiers would come here to participate in various group activities.
"The difference between simplicity and superstition seems to be just a thought away."
Chen Jingle was touched.
Well, although this way of expressing it is a bit abstract.
But then again, there are actually quite a few temples built for modern people, especially those who have made great contributions, but many people just don’t know about them.
I'm stuck. Now I come to my senses and realize I've been stuck in a rut again. If there's no content, just a map will do. Why bother?
