Chapter 187 Special covert means, changing the system (10k)(1/5)
Even after coming in, he found that this ghost place had really become a ghost place, Yu Ziqing was still prepared to check the situation first.
He didn't want to kill these abnormal-looking guys first, but unexpectedly, they forced him to offer incense and even wanted to kill him.
Then Yu Ziqing has no choice. He wants to die, who can stop him?
Yu Ziqing stepped forward and looked at the twitching earth lying on the ground. He hammered his chest with one hand, but he still couldn't spit out the incense.
"When eating, if you eat too quickly, you may choke to death."
Yu Ziqing stood aside and made sarcastic remarks. To be honest, he didn't know whether this land would die or how to save him.
This guy swallowed up the entire scent of incense in one gulp.
Yu Ziqing wondered if this was the way other people ate incense.
But courage is really brave.
Even if Yu Ziqing sincerely worships an ancestor, he only dares to walk halfway, as long as his heart is fulfilled, and at most he can spend more money.
Even if you know that ordinary worship is just a thought, it only comforts the living.
Yu Ziqing was also really afraid that his ancestors would receive the incense he paid homage to.
What if the true spirit of our ancestors is poisoned to death?
Now, this was the first time that Yu Ziqing saw with his own eyes the consequences of eating the incense he offered.
The face of the land turned black, and an ominous aura began to appear on his body. The hand on Meng Chui's chest gradually became weak, and finally his eyes widened, he straightened his body twice, and then there was no movement again.
The altar where Tu Tu was sitting before suddenly cracked and broke into two halves, and the entire Tu Tu Temple began to tremble.
Yu Ziqing took one step out of the temple, and saw that the earth temple shook for a few breaths and collapsed.
Temples collapsed, shrines collapsed, and golden bodies decayed.
This represents the fall of the earth.
Their demise was much more complete than that of ordinary people, and they did not even have the chance to become ghosts.
In other words, the earth creature itself was enshrined in the form of a ghost.
To die is to die completely.
Yu Ziqing stood in front of the collapsed temple. Looking back, he saw a large number of people gathering not far away.
They were afraid and angry.
But Yu Ziqing saw it clearly. Many people looked at him with hateful eyes.
It was as if he clearly saw a big enemy with a blood feud standing in front of him, but he was afraid of the opponent's power and did not dare to step forward to take revenge.
"He was the one who killed the Tu Tu Lord. He poisoned the Tu Tu Lord and poisoned the Tu Tu Lord to death."
"If the land master dies, we can no longer live. We will never receive any more blessings from him in the future."
"Don't let him go. Go and report to the City Emperor."
Everyone in the crowd was talking to each other and making noises. No one in the group dared to take the lead, but they all gathered together and surrounded Yu Ziqing, trying to trap Yu Ziqing.
Yu Ziqing looked at those pale-faced guys, who were obviously alive but not alive, and sighed softly.
He jumped up and flew away into the distance.
After flying out of the town, I sensed that there was a faint aura floating in the River Temple by the river, and in the distance on the other side, there was a faintly stronger aura emerging.
Yu Ziqing fell to the ground and regained his breath.
In the wilderness outside the town, there was a dilapidated building. This was the only place where Yu Ziqing did not smell incense.
He walked forward and saw that the plaque had disappeared, but there were still carved pairs on both sides of the door.
"Being courteous and courteous to others leads to prosperity, but you are embarrassed to hear the sound when you see your position."
Yu Ziqing walked into it. The interior was dilapidated, but it could still be seen that it should have been an ancestral hall.
In the ancestral hall, you can still see some fallen tablets.
In the middle, there is a broken and abandoned incense burner.
Logically speaking, there should be incense in the place, but Yu Ziqing couldn't smell any incense.
It must have been a long, long time since anyone came to worship here.
Yu Ziqing stood here, looking outside, and felt that there was an aura of at least level seven flying towards the town in the distance.
This is not the one Yu Ziqing sensed at the beginning. The one he sensed first was at least the eighth level.
Moreover, the aura is completely different from that of ordinary monks. The aura is vast and erratic, large but not condensed. It is even more mysterious, but it lacks the feeling of deep and deep mountains.
It should also be a ground creature, and it must be less than the ninth level.
Reaching the ninth level was a qualitative leap. If he were within his territory, he would have arrived in a matter of seconds.
The one who came should be just one of his subordinates, I don't know if it was a living person eating incense or a land creature.
The visitor fell into Shaojia Town and disappeared, and Yu Ziqing seemed not to be found.
Yu Ziqing turned to look at the back of the ancestral hall and cupped his hands.
"Thank you, old man, for your guidance."
Behind the ancestral hall, an old man with a cane, a stooped body and wrinkles on his face walked out slowly.
"It's rare to see someone who is not full of deathly popularity..."
When Yu Ziqing passed by here just now, he felt someone talking to him here.
This is a place those people will never come to.
So Yu Ziqing came.
At least, he didn't feel the scent of incense here.
Yu Ziqing followed the old man to the back hall, and saw a small bonfire with a small black pot hanging on it, and the porridge and wheat cooked in it were fragrant.
The old man was sitting behind the campfire, holding a wooden spoon and gently stirring the cooking porridge.
"Young man, have you eaten?"
"I haven't eaten. I've been hungry all day."
When the old man heard this, he immediately showed a smile, took out a broken bowl, took water from the water tank on the side, washed it clean, and filled a bowl of wheat porridge for Yu Ziqing.
Yu Ziqing squatted by the bonfire, holding a broken bowl in one hand and slowly sucking in the food.
The old man just sat there, watching Yu Ziqing slurping down a bowl of porridge. Then he grinned, picked up his bowl, and pulled it with his two kiwis.
Yu Ziqing didn't say anything, just waited.
This bowl of porridge is the key to establishing trust between the two parties.
When Yu Ziqing ate the porridge, it proved that he was not the kind of person who eats incense. When the old man finished eating the porridge, it proved that he was not the kind of person either.
After the old man finished eating the porridge, Yu Ziqing took the initiative to wash the bowl and add some firewood, and then sat down in front of the bonfire again.
"Young man, are you from outside?"
"kindness."
"When crossing the river, did you offer incense to the boatman?"
"No."
"No wonder, if you didn't give him incense, he would send you to the River Temple or the Earth Temple.
When you die, you can pay tribute to the river god or the land as a tribute, and he will also get benefits.
If you offer incense and you want to leave, I'm afraid it will be difficult.
Let's go now as soon as possible, and when you go, give the boatman a stick of incense.
When he sees that you are not dead, he knows that you are not easy to mess with, and he is greedy for your incense, so he will send you across the river."
"What the hell is going on here?"
"Hey..." the old man sighed and was silent for a long time: "This is a world where people are neither humans nor ghosts..."
"I only know that sixty years ago, although the Shao family was domineering and the rent was very high, at least they still had something to eat.
Although the Land Master at that time was a member of the Shao family, he was a good man during his lifetime. He blessed the place with good weather and at least no major disasters.
However, sixty years ago, the imperial court consecrated a city prince.
The land, mountain gods, and river gods are all under his jurisdiction. This place is the territory of this city prince.
Later, one day, the head of the Shao family was about to die, and the Emperor Cheng gave him a gift to eat delicious food.
This old man of the Shao family has lived to this day and is still alive.
The temple of the Cheng Huangye is very prosperous, and more and more people come to seek help.
In the beginning, they were just some seriously ill and old people, and then they slowly turned into what they are now.
There are no humans, no ghosts, no food and incense to survive, but no one is cultivating the fields anymore.
