Chapter 885

Fangqi also came out: "what are these people doing?" Miao Miao shook his head. "I don't know. Maybe they crossed the sea to harass the Central Plains. Let's follow first." After walking for a while, I saw a turn in the direction and turned into a big mountain. I walked more slowly on the snow in the mountains, but when I turned around the mountains, there was a temple in front of me. The temple of foot basin comes from the combination of state and temples in the Central Plains. There are places to worship earth God and valley God in the Central Plains, no matter in small towns or villages, and some villages also have small land temples.

At the foot basin, it becomes a shrine. The composition of the shrine is very complex. It can be either monks and Taoists or gods they fabricated. Generally follow the tradition of the Han people in the Central Plains. For example, a great general with outstanding military achievements will become a God for people to worship after his death.

Because of the same root and the same origin, the foot basin has been greatly influenced by the civilization of the Central Plains in the historical process. They will also worship the people of the Central Plains as their own ancestors, and some will just change their own names. For example, in the later Zheng Chenggong, the footbasin people simply worshipped him as a national hero of their country and built memorial halls and temples for him everywhere. Maybe there are too many capable people in the Central Plains. Just take a few and you can become their sages.

After a while, Miao Miao suddenly stopped: "deflate, do you think this shrine is very strange?"

Fang Qi looked at it for a long time and didn't think there was anything strange. "It's a little familiar. It's like the old Taoist we killed. Did he dust here?"

"That's not what I mean. I mean that the shrine is usually not too far away from people's homes. The land God is to bless peace and pray. Don't you think it's strange that this shrine is built in such deep mountains and forests?"

Fang Qi didn't think there was any difference. The difference between the shrine and the temple is not very big. At least the foot basin is still in the stage of ignorance, and there was no systematic differentiation until after the Meiji Restoration. Only those closely related to themselves will be invited to the shrine, and ordinary and traditional gods and ghosts will be divided into the temple.

"Now they probably haven't divided it very clearly. Only when the society is more and more developed will God subdivide it. They haven't reached that level."

Miao Miao couldn't refute him. They followed the team up the mountain. The steps couldn't go up. They left several people to watch the horses and climb up the steps. After the shrine archway, walking up a section of the road is another upward step. When Fang Qi and Miao Miao passed the dozen horses, the horses screamed in alarm. The horse watchers pulled out their knives and looked around. They thought there were some wild animals on the mountain.

Those people also looked back and confirmed that there was nothing before they went up again. Fang Qi and Miao Miao came to the memorial archway, which is made of stone with two forks and a long knife. It is similar to the Han memorial archway, but it is much simpler than the Han memorial archway. Even after thousands of years, it has not changed much, and it is still the combination of fork and long knife.

These people knocked on the door and swarmed in. As soon as they went in, they brought an overcast wind, which made the candles in the hall flutter. These people nervously pulled up their long knives and warned around. Different from Han Buddhism, the main hall here is not a statue as soon as you enter, but a wide passage with several statues at the end. Various flags and lanterns were hung on both sides. They were clattered by the wind, and the atmosphere was a little strange.

When Fang Qi flew over a lantern, he deliberately knocked over the candle inside. Suddenly, the lantern burned and soon lit the spirit flag. The crowd shouted and ran to put out the fire. After the fire was put out, he hugged the statue, knelt down and began to burn incense and pray.

Miao Miao and Fang Qi stay near the pillar to see the statue in the middle. The God in the middle doesn't know. The one on the left is also strange, but the statue on the right looks familiar.

"Sure enough, it is the place where the old demon Taoist priest became a monk. It seems that this shrine is where the old Taoist priest came out of the world. I don't know that the old Taoist priest has died in our hands. I'll give him a fart. " Fang Qi said to Miao Miao in his mind, "the Taoist priest seems to have a position in this temple and is worshipped as a God. However, he is qualified to eat incense. First, he is dead, and second, his kung fu is OK. The great God can't do it. It's right to be a little God. "

Miao Miao shook his head again and again: "I think he became famous outside. Others knew that he showed his magic power, and then they made a statue. It is estimated that they didn't know that the old Taoist was dead."

After praying, the leader went to the temple Zhu and waved a bamboo stick. A bamboo stick fell down. The temple Zhu took a look at the bamboo stick and said, "this time, there are more or less bad luck, and if you go out, you will be affected by fire." Before he finished, suddenly the people heard a sour squeak and looked at the place where the movement was made. They saw that the statue of respect on the right suddenly fell down and immediately smashed the temple wishes and the three or four people in front.

Although it is a clay doll, built two or three meters high, the power of falling down is also amazing. They pushed the broken clay doll away, and several people below had burst their brains and died. Fang Qi and Miao Miao looked at each other and felt strange. They were two feet away and didn't do anything. The mud doll said and fell down.

If you pull hard at ghosts and gods, I'm afraid you can only blame these people for their bad ideas. Like playing card nine, all the people who get their hands are flat ten, and no one else. The leader stood by for a long time. Although his face was covered with black cloth, he also knew that his mood was very complex. Three people died first. Even Miaozhu was killed. It was a bad start!

Then he asked people to clean up the body, and his three men didn't have to take it back. They buried it in the mountain behind the temple together with temple wishes. But he didn't intend to leave. He went back to the temple and sat cross legged on the futon without saying a word. The men also hung their hands and stood silent.

According to Fang Qi and Miao Miao, the decline of the temple has been revealed. Which official should build and support the temple, otherwise it would not be built in this remote valley. Most monks and Taoists are fed by others. There must be no way to go to huazhai here. They can only live on the money given by the officials.

But now the officials have been smashed to death, and even Miaozhu has not been spared. It can be seen that sending troops must be defeated. The leader was also tangled, because his boss gave him death orders, but now there were bad omens, so he couldn't work any more.

The footbasin people are no different from the people in the Central Plains. Before working, they should first ask the gods and pray for a smooth journey. But at the thought of his boss's dead order, he gritted his teeth, stood up and walked away. Those people had to follow him out of the temple, ride on their horses and run along the way up the mountain.

Fang Qi saw that they went back along the way, and there was no need to chase them. Seeing that the last man led three horses, he suddenly had an idea: "let's go and grab those three horses." But I didn't see Miao Miao.
