Chapter 3 Am I God? !

Chen Jingle counted 39 incense sticks, threaded the pole through the hemp rope, put two bamboo baskets full of offerings on his shoulders, and lifted the big red plastic bag full of paper money and joss sticks with one hand.

It will take at least half an hour to come back.

Fortunately, I usually stay at home, play with barbells and do push-ups when I have nothing to do, so I still have some strength.

The old lady spaceman followed behind, nodding with satisfaction.

As the saying goes, the wind is different for ten miles, and the customs are different for a hundred miles.

Here in Chen Jingle's hometown, not to mention ten miles away, even the customs between the village and the next-door village are very different.

Like temples.

There may only be one or two in other villages, but there are five in Qiantian Village where Chen Jingle lives.

With many gods, there are many rules.

For example, the order of worship.

Let's pay homage to Huaguang.

Huaguang is Emperor Huaguang, also known as Lord Ma, the horse of the four holy horses, Zhao, Wen and Guanli who protect the Dharma. "Prince Ma has three eyes", many people must have heard of this, and it refers to this person.

Bai Huaguang is very important, only pork and chicken can be used, not duck, because Huaguang does not eat duck.

According to folklore, when Huaguang was born prematurely, he was abandoned in the river. It was ducks who saved him, so there is a saying that Huaguang does not eat ducks.

Second worship Taishan Shigandang.

Shi Gandang has a wide range of beliefs in China, from south to north. Often a stone with "Shi Gandang" written on it can be used as an object of worship.It aims at avoiding evil spirits and suppressing evil spirits, and prohibiting oppression is ominous.

Three thanks to the realm master.

The master of the realm is the land and patron saint of the realm, and the primary god in the system of city gods stationed in the underworld, usually held by local ancestors or ancient famous ministers who were highly respected during their lifetime.The most basic function is to block all plagues, evil spirits and disasters that affect the safety of the people in the territory, so as to protect the safety and smoothness of the residents in the territory.

As far as the local area is concerned, a village is usually a border, and there are small temples in the territory, and there are border masters in the temples, and some of them also have the master's mother-in-law.

If there is a city, it is called the city god, and if there is no city, it is the master of the realm.

For the villagers, the importance of the Landlord is not only to protect the environment and the people, but also to monitor the people, but also to record his reincarnation from birth to death.

Four and five are the upper and lower ancestral halls.

For several generations, the whole village has the same old ancestor.

The problem lies with the border master.

……

When Chen Jingle came to Jingzhu Temple with a load, he saw an old lady kneeling in front of Jingzhu Temple, kowtowing respectfully.

He recognized this person, but he was not very familiar with her. According to his seniority, he had to call her "fourth woman".

The fourth wife who got up after kowtowing heard the movement and looked over.

Grandma took the initiative to greet her: "Good morning, Mrs. Mei, are you paying homage to the public today?"

"Yes. Aping, you come too."

The two old ladies are very enthusiastic.

Chen Jingle politely called "Fourth Wife", and the other party smiled and praised him for being filial and helping grandma carry the burden.

Hey, it's all polite words.

Grandma took the initiative to find a topic: "Zhenling said last night that the chickens should be slaughtered when they are big enough, and he will buy a batch of small ones to raise them for the New Year. I just want to take this opportunity to say goodbye and pray for safety. Time has passed."

"That's the truth."

The fourth wife nodded: "This person is old, don't expect anything else, as long as he is safe. I slept very badly a while ago, and I had nightmares again last night, but I dreamed of Grandpa's blessing in the middle, and I woke up in the morning It’s rare to be full of energy, and it just so happens that today is the first day of the new year, so I’ll buy some pork to pay my respects.”

Strange to say.

In her dream last night, she obviously didn't see Master Jing himself, but there was a voice in her mind telling her that it was Master Jing who protected her from being disturbed.

She woke up in the morning, thinking about this matter, the more she thought about it, the more surprised she was, and she went out to buy pork without saying a word.

Rural people really believe in the dream of gods.

……

Chen Jingle heard it nearby and didn't take it seriously.

He worships God, but does not ask God.

Worshiping gods can still be understood as respecting traditional folk customs, while praying for gods is feudal superstition, which is still clear.

Besides, a real man was born between heaven and earth, how could he... well, a man should rely on his own ability to live a happy life.

It is a beautiful idea to expect the gods to satisfy your gully-like desires by relying on that one pound, two taels of pork belly.

However, when he looked up and saw the words "Nabanjing" written under the eaves of Jingzhu Temple...

I was taken aback immediately.

"Wait... I'll boil it?!"

He finally knew why he felt the three words "that group of realm" familiar when he played that copycat game last night.

Isn't your own village called that class Jing!

Naban, in the local dialect, refers to the village near Tianbian.

"That class...I killed a monster in the game last night...the fourth wife had a nightmare last night, grandpa bless..."

Chen Jingle was not calm anymore.

It was such a coincidence that instinctively felt something was wrong.

So weird!

After the fourth wife walked away with her things, Chen Jingle couldn't help asking, "Grandma, what's the fourth wife's last name?"

"Why are you asking this?"

The old lady was baffled.

"Just ask."

"My surname is Liu, and her name is Liu Xiumei. Her natal family is from Lubiantang, and all Lubiantang's surnames are Liu. You, Aunt Guiqin, the daughter of her husband's eldest brother, married there..."

The old lady didn't think much about it and started talking.

When Chen Jingle heard that the fourth wife's surname was Liu, Chen Jingle's mind suddenly exploded, and the grandmother behind didn't listen to what she said.

Grass!

This can no longer be described as a coincidence.

Chen Jingle's hands were shaking and he couldn't calm down.

Now he is eager to know the names of the Jingzhu temples in the next few villages.

If everything in the game is true...

His heart was beating wildly, as if he had met the legendary chance!
……

After hastily paying homage to the remaining two ancestral halls, Chen Jingle ran home and went out on a motorcycle.

"Sure enough, Nichong Village is Guangling Realm, Dalang Village is Hezhong Realm, Houtian Village is Three Dynasty Realm, and Datang Village is Wensheng Realm."

Chen Jingle, who spent half an hour finding the answer, squatted on the side of the road, looking at the map of "Incense" opened on his mobile phone, thinking about life.

"That is to say, I am now the leader of our village?"

"I am God?!"

The world line has changed family members! ! !

As a highly educated materialist who advocates science, Chen Jingle is in a delicate mood at the moment.

There are not only the excitement of ordinary people after getting the golden finger, but also the fear and worry about the unknown future, and even mixed with a trace of the second-year fantasies of older and passionate youths.

After half an hour.

"Am I really the Landlord?"

"Why don't you feel any difference?"

"Can you call the wind and rain, move mountains and fill the sea?"

"Can you fly into the sky and escape from the ground, and live forever?"

Chen Jingle checked for a long time, but he didn't find anything special about him.

But recalling the introduction to Nightmare in the game last night, I scratched my head subconsciously: "That is to say, there are really dirty things in this world?"

Turtle!

Is it really going to be weirdly revived?
