Maoshan Taoist priests practice falsehood and become reality

Chapter 128 Huge Vortex

Dreaming again?

Wang Zhiyuan shook his head crazily to wake up.

The world is spinning!

Slow down.

Not only did he not wake up, but one of the slaves even put his face close to his, blowing his beard and staring, looking very angry.

"Pretending to be crazy and acting stupid!"

Zaoli cursed.

Wang Zhiyuan was too frightened to resist and had no choice but to follow.

When he went out, the sky was overcast and green, and the cold wind was howling. It was obviously summer, but it felt like falling into an ice cellar, making him shiver constantly.

Seeing this, Ba Zaoli could only form a circle around him like a flame, protecting him in the center. Wang Zhiyuan instantly felt much more comfortable.

At the door of the Taoist temple, Zaoli opened the door and led Wang Zhiyuan out and onto the street. There were many erratic ghosts on the roadside.

"There are so many ghosts in the dream!"

Wang Zhiyuan sighed.

If some ghosts are aware of it, they open their teeth and claws and fly towards them like crazy.

"Come here!"

Wang Zhiyuan reminded with a trembling voice.

Bazaoli didn't take it seriously. When the ghosts approached, he used his killing stick and beat them randomly. The ghosts screamed and ran away.

The leader Zaoli was confused: "Don't they know about ghosts? Are they usually so brave?"

"act recklessly!"

"Humph!"

The other Zaoli echoed the complaints and communicated with each other, giving Wang Zhiyuan the feeling that they spoke clearly and coherently.

Aren't you dreaming?

Wang Zhiyuan began to doubt.

Ba Zaoli protected him and continued to move forward. The scenery he saw along the way was exactly the same as what he saw during the day.

When approaching Liuye Street, the Zaobiao people suddenly looked solemn, as if there was something terrifying ahead of them.

Wang Zhiyuan was about to ask, but was trapped by a chain. The man who tied him up said:

"Old Taoist, the road ahead is not easy, so please be patient."

Is the road ahead difficult?

A few people turned a corner, and suddenly a strong wind blew. The wind was fast and fierce, and there was also an evil suction force.

Without Zaoli's iron rope, he would have been absorbed on the spot.

Wang Zhiyuan squinted his eyes and saw a huge vortex appearing in the distance for no reason. Countless ghosts were entangled and screamed.

Wang Zhiyuan was frightened and wanted to ask what was going on, but the eight soap slaves all had blue complexions and expressionless faces. They stepped on the ground with a muffled sound, as if each of them weighed five to six hundred kilograms.

Wang Zhiyuan suddenly remembered that the Bazaoli in the Chenghuang Temple were all made of solid stone!

Is it possible that this is not a dream? !

After the most difficult part of the journey, Zaoli returned to normal. Seeing Wang Zhiyuan's confusion, he explained smoothly.

It turns out that the huge vortex is made up of countless innocent souls.

"There is no underworld here. When people die, they become lonely ghosts. Over time, they become angry and become evil spirits. If left unchecked, it will definitely cause disaster in the future."

While talking, we finally arrived at the Chenghuang Temple.

The door of the palace is open, and the county god is sitting inside, with civil and military judges on the left and right.

"Report to the City God, Maoshan Taoist Wang Zhiyuan to bring him!"

Wang Zhiyuan boldly raised his head and saw that the City God had a fair complexion, his eyes were half open and half closed, and he was stroking his beard and nodding. He was obviously not a statue, but a living god.

The city god appears? !

Wang Zhiyuan was shocked and frightened.

The judge who was standing by looked sideways and said, "Master Wang, do you recognize the city god of this county?"

How can a Taoist priest not understand the principles of the City God?

Seeing Wang Zhiyuan nodding like a chicken pecking at rice, Judge Wu became furious: "Now that you know, why do you pretend to be deaf and dumb about what the City God told you?"

What the City God told me?

The judge turned over the book and reminded: "The city god monitors all the people, and Taoist Zha Xuanheng has helped the world and saved people. He has outstanding merits and virtues. He should be promoted according to his merits."

Wang Zhiyuan: "Huh?"

Wait!

He paced back and forth in the City God's Temple, trying to clear his mind and discern whether all this was reality or a dream.

But Judge Wu could not allow him to be so arrogant in the City God's Temple. With a wink, all the officials knocked on the ground with their killing sticks.

"Wei...wu..." Is this going to be promoted to the court?

"Wait a minute!" Wang Zhiyuan said without thinking carefully, "The Lord of the City, please allow me to explain. Disciple Xuan Heng has been a disciple of Maoshan for only a few months, which is an exception. How can he continue to be promoted? The truth taught?”

Judge Wen had foreseen it and said seriously: "Those who are promoted must be promoted based on their merits and deeds. Those with outstanding merits and deeds can be promoted in an exceptional manner."

"But my disciple doesn't have extraordinary merits either!"

"absurd!"

The city god scolded angrily.

Judge Wen quickly opened the book in his hand and read loudly: "Taoist Master Xuanheng rescued Yuan Jingshu and Yuan Jinghong in Baihua Village. Is this considered a meritorious deed?"

Saving people's lives is regarded as the highest merit and merit is counted.

"Taoist Master Xuanheng killed demons in Tingyun Town and rescued Xu Qiuyang, Wang Yuran, and several other villagers. Is this considered meritorious?"

"Calculate."

But still not outstanding.

"Taoist Master Xuanheng exterminated demons and defended the Tao on Haitang Street, and rescued Xiang Zibo. Does the child's coke count as a meritorious deed?"

Ah, Su Heng has done these things?

"Hmph, you must not know that half a month ago, when evil spirits invaded, Taoist Master Xuanheng killed the tiger monster, chased away the mirage monster, drove away the spider monster, and saved the people from dire straits. Don't these all count as meritorious deeds?"

The evil infestation half a month ago was an evil spirit invading the inner city? During that period, Su Heng also took action?

Yes, Su Heng went out that day. And since he is an investigator, it is only natural for him to take action.

"A week ago, evil spirits took advantage of the situation. Taoist priest Xuan Heng appeared again to subjugate demons and save the common people from disasters. I'm afraid you don't even know about these things?"

"I really don't know..."

Judge Wu shouted: "Don't tell you everything now!"

Wang Zhiyuan was speechless and choked.

The City God nodded and said calmly:

"The disciple has repeatedly performed extraordinary feats, but the master has no idea about it. It should have been punished for a crime of negligence, but it was an unintentional mistake, and I gave you a chance to make up for it. Taoist Wang Zhiyuan listened to the order and gave you three days to do it." Xuanheng will hold a promotion ceremony, if there is any further delay, don’t blame me for being ruthless."

"about."

"exist!"

"Take him back."

"Order!"

……

"Oh oh oh!"

The rooster crows.

Wang Zhiyuan opened his eyes suddenly and jumped up from the bed, sweating profusely and feeling indescribable shock in his heart.

"Really, it's all true! The City God has appeared!"

After a moment, he regained consciousness, and his eyes gradually became blurred: "Did the spirit really appear?"

That’s not right. If there really is a god in the world, why can’t we see it today after practicing Taoism for decades? When evil spirits are raging, why don't all the gods take action?

"Is it possible that my end is approaching and I am hallucinating?"

It is said that before people die, they will see many things that they cannot see on ordinary days. This is why there is a saying of "picking up the air to organize the thread, and following the clothes to touch the bed".

"But my health is fine!"

With many doubts, Wang Zhiyuan found his two junior brothers. After hearing about last night's adventure, Yuan Jingshu sighed and said seriously:

"Brother, Freud believes that dreams are the manifestation of psychological activities deep in the human heart. Dreams are spiritual activities that try to achieve a kind of satisfaction through expression, which is based on personal desires and needs."

"Ah, who is Freud?"

Freud was an Austrian psychiatrist, psychologist, and founder of the school of psychoanalysis. The sex theory he advocated believed that everything was related to sex. The theory was once popular all over the world and became a required course for dating and picking up girls.

For this reason, Yuan Jingshu learned a few tricks. Unexpectedly, he didn't use them to pick up girls, but used them to interpret dreams for his senior brother.

"A Western Taoist priest. Ahem, in short, according to theory, you actually long to be buried for your nephew in your heart. Senior brother, master often taught you to be simple and follow your heart. You should seriously consider this matter."

Mentioning his master, Wang Zhiyuan's eyes flickered, and he finally sighed: "I understand."

In the afternoon of that day, Wang Zhiyuan found Su Heng to examine the relevant content of Zhengyi Sutra and found that the disciples all answered it fluently.

Then he tried the merit aspect. Su Heng admitted that he had saved people, eliminated some evil spirits, and said that he was just fulfilling his duties as an investigator.

Well, this is roughly consistent with what Judge Meng said.

So the next day, Wang Zhiyuan held a promotion ceremony for Su Heng.
