Chapter 2 Humans and ghosts have different paths, day and night are divided
Of course, it was impossible to return like this when the evil ghost was around. I wiped the sweat from my forehead. This time, the work was a bit of a loss. It cost a total of 600 incense and two years of savings. It makes me feel sick just thinking about it.
The Liyuan tribe, which lives in a corner, was once considered a large tribe, but over the years, it has been constantly harassed by these three ghost generals, and it is unbearable.
These three evil ghosts often come in at night to plunder the young members of the tribe. In recent days, except for some old, weak, sick and disabled, all those who can escape from the original tribe have taken refuge in the nearby Linhuang City.
When Yan Li returned to the Liyuan tribe, every household turned off the lights and closed the doors, except for the occasional crack in the door that peeked out to see what was going on outside.
"Everyone, please come out. The evil spirits are at home. There is no need to panic."
Yan Li shouted several times before an old man tremblingly walked out of the door with a cane, looking around all the way, ready to run away at the slightest sign of trouble.
"Yan... Taoist Master Yan?"
The old man has lived a long time and still doesn't know what a Taoist priest is, so he is very uncomfortable to call him.
"Infinite Heavenly Lord, I have lived up to the trust of the old patriarch Li Yuanping. I have subdued the evil ghost and will transform him into reincarnation in the near future." Yan Li tried his best to make himself appear to be very reliable with his immortal spirit.
"The Taoist priest said that the evil ghost has been eliminated, but is it true?" Li Yuanping didn't believe it, after all, the evil ghost had been causing trouble for many years.
"This is the poor Taoist's magic weapon, the red gourd, and the evil spirit is inside it."
Yan Li untied the gourd and brought it to Li Yuan's plane. With a flick of his finger, the static fragrance inside the gourd was revealed in front of Li Yuan's plane. Three fierce ghost generals were now struggling in the gourd.
"Li Yuan Shi? Li Yuan Hu? Li Yuan Qing? Why are there three of them?"
The old patriarch of the Liyuan tribe recognized these three people immediately when he saw their true faces.
"Does the old patriarch know them?"
"What a sin, what a sin..." Li Yuanping tapped the cane on the ground several times.
"The three of them are brothers. They were once the strongest warriors of my Liyuan tribe. Unfortunately, after a hunting trip, the three of them did something worse than animals and gave their younger siblings to... to..." Li Yuanping
He sighed heavily.
"The three of them violated the clan rules, so they were hanged in the wild and their bodies were exposed in the wilderness..."
Yan Li was also helpless. The bad customs of this continent were that they did not respect the ancestors and did not offer spiritual places, and there was no incense during the four seasons. Therefore, these wandering ghosts became more and more resentful and turned into evil ghosts to cause trouble.
"Chief Liyuan, there are many ghosts in Makino. Even if I transform these three evil ghosts, I can't guarantee that there won't be other evil spirits coming to harass me."
"Ah... what should we do?" Li Yuanping was a little anxious, "Taoist Master, please save my Li Yuan tribe."
"Don't worry, old patriarch. Since the Liyuan tribe is at the top of my True Immortal Temple, Pindao will naturally protect the safety of the Liyuan tribe. It just requires the cooperation of everyone in the tribe."
"As long as I can leave my original tribe safely, we will cooperate fully no matter what the Taoist priest requests."
"Okay, now that I'm done with it, I'll just tell you the truth. Tomorrow at noon, I'll come back here to build a temple. After enshrining a statue of the god, the temple here can ensure the peace of the family and the tribe and no longer be disturbed by evil spirits."
"Although the old man doesn't know what a temple is, as long as it can keep my tribe safe, I can do whatever the Taoist tells me."
Yan Li felt a little excited. It had been two years since he came to this world. Apart from defrauding some old men and women of their incense, he could finally build a temple in an honest way.
"The sky is full of gods and Buddhas. I finally found a place for you to eat... It's really... It's really..." Yan Li was excited and incoherent. "It's really difficult..."
"It took two years to build a temple. There are hundreds of gods and goddesses named in the jade certificate..."
No matter what, the long march has taken the first step, where should it be next? Wumeng Bangbo Niwan?
After leaving the Liyuan tribe, he no longer had to pretend to be an expert. He showed his true nature and took out a box of cigarettes from his arms. This was the one he asked them to bring when he competed with the Four Heavenly Kings last time. The quantity was not large.
Each one is very precious.
I lit up a cigarette and hummed a little tune, striding forward in a vigorous pace. Sometimes my steps were a little too big, and my hairy legs were exposed from time to time at the hem of my Taoist robe...
The Hongwu Continent was so huge that even the gods and Buddhas in the sky with their vast supernatural powers did not know what would be found in other places. Therefore, Yan Li was urged to be careful in every possible way, and even passed down an extremely advanced cultivation method in a jade tablet.
The people on this continent mainly live in the form of tribes, and occasionally there are one or two large cities. In the past two years, Yan Li only roughly knew that the place he was in was called Makino Plateau, which was close to the East China Sea, and he didn't know anything else.
.
In the Hongwu Continent, the way of heaven is incomplete and reincarnation is incomplete. Many people cannot enter reincarnation after death and can only wander in time and become lonely ghosts. Therefore, many ghosts often appear.
After death, if a person cannot enter the reincarnation, he will turn into a lonely ghost. If he dies with resentment and lingers after death, he will become a fierce ghost, and after the cultivation of Jiazi, the fierce ghost will become a ferocious ghost, causing disaster.
Therefore, there is also a rule passed down from generation to generation on this continent, night ban!
Night ban means that no activities are held after nightfall, and you are not allowed to go out, especially if you are on the road! Because the day is the world of humans, and the night is the paradise of these ghosts.
In order to lay a foundation in the Hongwu Continent, Yan Li built a broken Taoist temple on a sparsely populated Guifang Mountain in the Makino Plateau as his place of residence. Now he is on his way back to the Taoist temple.
Suddenly, I heard a cry for help coming from the forest. A child stumbled and fled in the forest. Behind the child, there was a shrill laughter in the cold wind...
The child looked to be only six or seven years old. After running away for a long time, he finally lost strength and fell on the road. He fainted from fear.
Just when the evil ghost behind him was about to pounce on him and devour his essence and blood, the sound of mantras resounded throughout the forest.
"Five-day fierce generals, train generals, soaring to the sky and falling to the bottom, driving thunder and rushing clouds, thousands of troops, commanding the divine soldiers, raising flags to rush, without stopping, rushing like laws and orders!"
A bolt of lightning fell from the sky and struck into the dark wind, screams rang out, and a female ghost in white revealed her true face.
"The power of this flag-opening spell is very average."
Where the voice came from, a handsome Yan Li wearing a worn Taoist robe walked out of the forest, with a cigarette dangling from the corner of his mouth.
"Hey...this female ghost is quite beautiful."
Suddenly there was a golden light on the top of a mountain not far away. It was Guifang Mountain where his Taoist temple was located. Yan Li looked back and said to himself:
"This is that Buddha visiting my temple again."
The female ghost took advantage of Yan Li's turning back and wanted to attack, but as soon as she got close to Yan Li, she was sucked into the gourd by a huge suction force. She put the lid on the gourd, picked up the fainted child, and turned towards him.
