Collection of strange powers and chaotic gods

It is said that once upon a time, during the Qing Dynasty, there was a scholar named Li in Haichang Mansion, Zhejiang Province (now Jiaxing City, Zhejiang Province). Because of his poor family background, he studied hard, thinking that one day he would be named on the gold medal list and enter an official career.

On this day, as usual, Li Xiucai studied until late at night. He was sleepy and tired. Unknowingly, he lay down on the table and fell asleep.

In a daze, he came to a temple.

When I looked up, I saw three characters written on the plaque: "Sumin Temple"!

As a scholar, Li Xiucai certainly understood: Sumin was the posthumous title of Yu Qian, the great loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty. It means, be loyal to the country and die in the line of duty!

And this "Sumin Temple" was built by later generations to commemorate Yu Qianyu's great achievements.

Li Xiucai admired Lord Su Min very much and was familiar with his famous sayings that have been passed down to the world.

like what:

I am not afraid of being broken into pieces,

Be innocent in the world.

And that:

I hope that everyone in the world will be well fed and warm,

Take the trouble to get out of the mountains and forests.

and many more.

Li Xiucai was very familiar with everything and knew everything by heart.

Now that we have arrived in front of Master Su Min's temple, in order to express our admiration, we naturally have to go in to pay homage and pray.

It would be better if Lord Sumin could come over in a dream and give some pointers.

Li Xiucai climbed up the stairs and was about to push the side door in when the main door of the temple suddenly opened and someone walked out.

This person is Lord Sumin.

His Excellency stood by the door and invited him inside.

Li Xiucai was flattered: "How dare you, a young man, trouble an adult to come and invite me!"

He didn't dare to go in through the main entrance and stood there, refusing to enter.

Master Sumin smiled and said to him: "It doesn't matter if you enter! You don't know something. In the future, you will be my disciple, so you should enter through the front door!"

Li Xiucai sighed in his heart: Master Su Min is a true god! You can foresee things in the future!

After being polite to the adults, he walked into the temple.

Before the two of them could sit down, a young novice came to report: "The Lord City God of Tangyin County (now Anyang City, Henan Province) wants to see you!"

Lord Sumin allowed him to see him.

After a while, the little novice monk walked in with a god wearing a high hat.

Li Xiucai took a look and found that this person was the Lord City God whom he had met in the temple before.

He quickly stepped forward, wanting to kneel down and salute.

Master Su Min held him back and asked him to meet the City God with the courtesy of equals.

The Lord explained: "He is my subordinate, and you are my disciple. Your generations are equal. Not only do you not need to kneel down to him, but you also have to sit on his throne!"

The three of them then took their seats.

Li Xiucai sat down with fear on the surface, but in his heart he was bursting with joy: "Boom!" I actually sat in the seat of the City God! My ancestral grave must be smoking, right? !

At this time, only a few novice monks were seen bringing tea and snacks up, and then left one after another.

The three people on the table exchanged a few pleasantries, nothing more than family affairs, local customs and so on. Li Xiucai was secretly curious: How come the daily conversations of gods are the same as those of us mortals?

After chatting for a while, Cheng Huang took Master Sumin and started to whisper. The voices of the two of them were so low that they could not be heard.

Li Xiucai stretched out his ears and heard only a few words: "Die in Guangxi, die in Tangxi, live on the stubborn rocks in Nanshan, live for thousands of years!"

He counted it, and there were sixteen characters in total. I recited it silently several times in my mind and didn't stop until I remembered it.

I thought to myself: I was not allowed to hear anything else they said, so why did I hear these few sentences? Could it be that Lord Sumin deliberately revealed the sixteen-character motto to me?

Thinking of this, Li Xiucai couldn't help but ponder these sixteen words carefully, wanting to find out the mystery inside them.

After a while, the city god said goodbye to Lord Sumin.

Master Su Min asked Li Xiucai to send a gift to the city god on his behalf.

When the two came outside the gate, the City God stopped, looked at Li Xiucai and asked, "I wonder if Li Jun heard the conversation I had with Mr. Yu inside just now?"

Li Xiucai answered truthfully: "Xiaosheng only heard sixteen words!"

The City God asked in a low voice: "Memorize it?"

Li Xiucai said: "I have memorized it, but the young man is stupid and doesn't know its meaning. I wonder if Lord Chenghuang can explain it to the young man?"

The City God said sternly: "Absolutely not! This is a secret from heaven. Because you are a student of Yu Gong's disciples, I let you hear it on purpose. If the heaven knows about it, it was leaked by me and me unintentionally. If I can help you clear up your doubts, it is intentional. For this!”

Li Xiucai said: "Xiaosheng understands!"

The City God warned him: "You can only understand the secrets by yourself! But you must remember these sixteen words, they will definitely come true in the future!"

After saying that, he said goodbye to Li Xiucai and turned around to leave.

Li Xiucai returned to the temple, saw Lord Sumin and narrated the matter. Yu Gong's statement is the same as that of the City God. Regarding the secret of heaven, we can no longer elaborate on it!

Master Su Min said nothing more, turned around and walked back.

Li Xiucai chased after him, begging Yu Gong for advice.

Master Sumin left without looking back.

Li Xiucai shouted anxiously. In his hurry, he tripped over something and woke up!

When I woke up, I found that I had fallen asleep on the table. But the scene in the dream is still vivid in my mind, those sixteen words. I also remember it clearly!

When he got up the next day, Li Xiucai told the people around him what happened in his dream.

Everyone is curious, but no one knows what those sixteen words mean!

Some time later, Li Xiucai's cousin, surnamed Chen, was appointed to the post of general judge somewhere in Guangxi. Thinking that his cousin Li Xiucai's family was poor, he wanted to take him to Guangxi to take up his post. When it's convenient, support him and get him a part-time job, and you can support your family.

Li Xiucai heard that he was going to be taken to Guangxi. He remembered that one of the sixteen words included "die in Guangxi" and refused to go even if he was alive.

He told his cousin: "In the dream I had, the gods warned me: 'die in Guangxi'. It should be telling me not to go there, right? If I must go, it would be unlucky! I'm afraid it will be bad for you too." It will have an impact!”

His cousin Chen Tongpan disagreed. He had a different view.

He said: "Cousin, you must have heard wrong! What the gods said was 'beginning in Guangxi', which is the 'beginning' that has a beginning and an end, not the 'death' of life and death! If it is 'death in Guangxi', then what follows "Zhongzai Tangxi" is incomprehensible.

People have died in Guangxi, how can they still go to Tangxi?

If it is said that it ‘began in Guangxi’, then it makes sense!

That's the gods giving you guidance.

This means that the starting point of your life trajectory should be in Guangxi, and then you will go to high school in Tangxi! "

When Li Xiucai heard this, he suddenly realized that this was what the immortal meant!

As a result, he no longer worried about dying in Guangxi!

So I happily went to Guangxi to take up my post with my cousin...
