Chapter 3: Origin
In order to find a relatively powerful snail, Lin Tianze left the mass grave and walked around the mountains and forests for a while, but in fact he didn't go far.
Walking more than a few hundred meters in the forest, then turning up the hill, you can see the winding bluestone road winding upwards.
The towering Buddhist walls of temples are reflected among the ancient pine trees.
The mass grave behind the temple is the "home" that I have settled in a foreign world for a short time.
This is a temple built in the deep mountains and forests. The old monk and the young monks had more than 200 people. The huge sandalwood plaque was hung on the vermilion gate, but the plaque on the mountain door was empty and there was no word written on it.
Because this temple is nameless, Lin Tianze was slightly stunned when he first heard about this matter, and did not give a thumbs up. Lan Ruo has no boundaries, and the Taoist land of the mind and action is not limited to the ten directions and three times, that is, there is no boundaries.
A pure and inactive mind is not a temple, so why bother to the temple? If your mind is not pure, will you really be quiet when practicing in the temple?
What is the name for a short-term place to stay?
Compared to the previous life, in addition to the name, I changed my inner world countless times, and after becoming a traitor, I cleared out a group of people, and reborn from the movie and the thousand-year "rank" of listed companies, it is indeed this ancient mountain gate far away from the world, and it has a Buddhist artistic conception.
The mass graves that live in many lonely ghosts and ghosts, and can live next to this temple, naturally have a deep connection between the two.
According to a local ghost, more than a hundred years ago, there was a plague in this town. Local officials directly built disaster sheds in this mountain forest. All the people who were suspected of being infected were locked up here. If there were any symptoms, they would drag them into the woods behind them without any concern for life and death.
It happened that a monk came here to hear about this, preach the scriptures and give medicine to save people.
After the plague was cured.
The monk found that people who died in vain under plague and evil politics would be unable to relieve their resentment and would be in trouble.
Therefore, the sheds where patients were imprisoned were used as temples, and the cemetery was buried as temples, and dozens of children who were free from worries due to the plague were used as lay disciples.
Every day, they take them to chant scriptures and talk about Buddha to their dead relatives, suppress and save all the ghosts, resolve their resentment, and allow them to be reincarnated into good families.
Thanks to the monks for treating the plague. The pilgrims who came to burn incense were also told by the monks that the dead were seldom in their hearts. In the place where the dead were buried, they would first burn incense sticks and then come in to burn incense and worship Buddha. So this became the default rule.
This land could not have developed into such a messy mass grave now.
But things happened so coincidental. There was an elderly couple without children and relatives from neighbors. That winter, the husband of the family fell seriously ill and lay dying in the bed.
His old woman cried in front of the bed and said, "The shopkeeper is dead, and there are still people who take care of the funeral behind him. I am really pitiful, the old woman. I am alone at home, dead and smelly, and I don't know if anyone knows it, and the neighbors don't know whether they are willing to dig a hole and give me half a straw mat to wrap my body."
The old man was already in a daze because he was sick and uncomfortable. When his wife cried like this, she became angry and was lying on the bed and couldn't move anymore, so she sat up and cursed.
"Those who are buried in the plague can be managed by someone after their lives. They keep incense. If you don't want to live, die early. Go to the forest to dig a hole and bury yourself. If you die there, you can keep incense together!"
The old man spent his last breath after looking back and lay there with a plop.
His old woman didn't know that she was a honest person, and she really took the words of his old man before he died.
I still think what his old man said makes sense. The land where the plague patients were buried was a Feng Shui treasure land, and a monk chanted scriptures.
Dozens and half-old men who care about grave grass and go to temples to worship Buddha also promise to put incense sticks in front of the mass grave.
So he buried his old man there and built a tomb for himself next to him, waiting to die.
Then I don’t know how this matter spread. At first, it was those beggars and idle men who thought the feng shui was good, so you helped me and me, and they all settled their return to the next hundred years.
Then came the yamen at that time.
The court above had a special fund to build a charity village to restrain the corpses that were killed in foreign lands. If one of the corpses is not handled properly, it would be not a good thing that zombies, ghosts, or corpses stolen by evil spirits and aliens will appear to practice.
When the county magistrate heard about this, he slapped his hand and said that the land was good and he buried it in the future. He didn't know why the house was damaged. He asked someone to pay for daily maintenance, otherwise there would be no craftsman to work.
We also need to specially invite experts from Taoist craftsmen to pay attention to the accounts, and the materials, various incense and paper money, and various special coffins, are a big expense.
There are now free monks who have attained enlightenment, which is worry-free and labor-saving.
Then, the money that was transferred to protect the charity house was put into their own pockets for unknown reasons.
There is no secret between the upper levels, and some big visitors have also been opened to the new world by the actions of the official.
The maid and servant who were beaten to death, because of some shameful reasons, died in a more evil way. Let’s deal with it. We must keep the secrets and not let outsiders know that they have lost their own face. If we don’t deal with it, we will cause trouble after death, and make the family restless.
Now there are places to solve the problem of this affecting reputation. Here are monks who suppress and preach, and they are mats in the middle of the night. They don’t have to worry about throwing them here, so there is no accident.
A group of dead people were buried there and rubbed the Buddhist scriptures. The monk did not express any expression, and he let it go calmly. According to his words to his disciples, as outsiders, the land was not his, so there was no reason at all, and there was no need to stop them.
So the mountains and forests behind the temple became public cemeteries.
This tradition has been maintained until the monk passed away and became transformed.
Among the lay disciples, several of the disciples who were truly ordained as monks were disgusted with this kind of bullying.
It would be fine if you pay tribute to your relatives and then add a group of graves that don’t know strangers.
People bury dead people around your house every day, or die outside waiting for you to dig a hole. What's this called?
The monks in the temple were tacit, except for the graves of themselves and their fellow disciples.
Other graves, they selectively ignore them.
In addition, the monks have accumulated over the decades and their prestige has gradually increased in the local area. The common people in the market are no longer coming here. Although they have not been abandoned directly, they have returned to normal frequency.
In this way, the once lively prime location has become a mass grave where lonely ghosts live.
Lin Tianze glanced at the top of the Buddha Temple, quickly lowered his head, and hurriedly walked around.
Above the temple, there is a towering pagoda made of golden light. The pagoda has seven floors, and bronze bells of varying sizes are hung on each floor. These bronze bells do not shake or ring in the night wind, like solid dumbbells.
As someone who asks good qualities if you don’t understand, Lin Tianze naturally finds out what this tower is. There are so many professional nouns that Lin Tianze is a little difficult to understand, but it should be equivalent to the protection of luck.
Many folk stories mention that the face is full of red light, and all evil is not invaded. If the luck is low, it is easy to see unclean things. In some stories, monsters and monsters have to knock on the door. Only when you open the door for them can you come in and harm others. This is the system of luck protection.
Compared to the story, we should prevent doors and windows from acting as door gods.
This temple fully reflects what domineeringness is.
It is not a famous ancient temple. It is a locally famous temple that is even bigger than the temple and half of the mountain.
What's more interesting is that this tower is quite a monster, but it is not targeted at the ghosts who used to be humans.
This is also the reason why Lin Tianze named this tower for luck and protection.
From the perspective of his outsider, Lin Tianze is quite opposed to aliens, at least from his shallow insights after traveling through time, he is full of such traces in all aspects.
Living creatures are protected by yang energy, and living creatures have the past.
When a person with all spirits walks alone at night, his head and shoulders will ignite three fires that are bleak in his heart.
There was this statement in my previous life, but after seeing it once, Lin Tianze felt strange.
Because no matter how these three fires look at them, they are not like the human body itself, but patches that are forced by the outside world.
This world is very magical, but after pursuing those magical things, Lin Tianze thinks that the root cause can be found.
And these three fires are too in line with people and not objective phenomena.
If you want to say that the qi and blood are strong, people can compare to ferocious carnivores, why are lions, tigers, bears and wild boars not on them?
If you want to talk about the more illusory concepts of blessing, wealth and longevity, why are there only when you walk alone at night?
Until then, I learned that this world is extremely similar to the historical myths of my previous lives.
Tracing back to the ancient wilderness era, there were the Three Emperors of Heaven, Earth, Man and Man.
The Emperor's Divine Court ruled and ruled in good weather, and good fortune would be good.
The Netherworld shapes the system of life and death.
Later, the Central Emperor, the Qing Emperor in the East, the Yan Emperor in the South, the White Emperor in the West, and the Black Emperor in the North, five mythological eras that I don’t know how long it took.
Lin Tianze quickly figured it out that the strange setting of the Three Fires in this world may really be acquired, human, and god-made.
As a world that can be regarded as individual practice civilization, in the long history, it is normal for them to master the rules and regulations of heaven, to formulate laws and laws, and to create some protection mechanisms for human race.
In the tech fantasy novel "Dune" fantasy of the future starry sky, there is also a position protection setting. Everyone has a protective position protection that cannot be penetrated by interstellar cannons, and can only fight with low-speed cold weapons and kill each other.
So even if you know that there are scholars who penetrate ghosts and foxes in the nearby city, as ghosts with no substance in Yin Qi and spiritual life, as well as foxes with different species and sizes.
Lin Tianze was not surprised to give birth to a normal and intelligent child with that scholar, really!
