The Ferry of the Heavens: Hong Kong Comprehensive Start

Chapter 399
The 34th year of Guangxu, that is, 1908.

into the night.

The moon is in the sky.

There is no trace of starlight.

In the barren mountains and wild ridges, the wind blows like a ghost crying, creating a gloomy and strange scene.

Turning somewhere on a path that has been stepped out by people, there is an irregular gray-brown boulder.

On the front of the stone, the words "Di Gong" are simply written in cinnabar.

Under the stone, there are several stone blocks to form an extremely simple altar.

On the altar was a palm-sized and extremely rough idol, whose appearance could not be seen clearly.

In front of this statue, there is not even an incense burner, only a small piece of ground covered with incense ash, with a few burnt incense sticks stuck on it.

A translucent [human figure] whose feet are an inch above the ground and whose whole body is covered by a layer of mist is standing in front of this mountain god statue.

This [Shadow], to be precise, should be called [Ghost Shadow], it is nothing but Ling Yaodong who was ferryed across.

After Ling Yaodong inspired the reward of soul travel in the Hong Kong Comprehensive World, he felt as if he was sitting on a boat, then riding the wind and waves in the long river of time and space, and finally got into a bubble.

When Ling Yaodong regained consciousness, he found himself possessed in this statue, becoming a [Land Lord] who has not yet successfully taken office!
To put it bluntly, he is a lonely ghost possessed inside the statue.

Worse than the lonely ghost, he was trapped by the idol and couldn't get too far away from the idol.

What's even worse is that Ling Yaodong's soul is dim. If he still can't get the incense, he can't become the Lord of the Land, and he will die in dismay.

Really sad reminder!

The statue gave Ling Yaodong a chance to become a local god, but it also restricted Ling Yaodong's range of activities.

And Ling Yaodong, who couldn't live without this lumpy corner, didn't even have the chance to go out and trick a few believers back to believe in him, so now he can only wait helplessly to die.

"Could it be that I went too far in the last world, so I will be punished in this world?" Ling Yaodong looked at the sky speechlessly with a gloomy face.

"Hey!" Ling Yaodong let out a long sigh, and with a thought, the attribute panel he had been looking at for a long time appeared in front of him.

After his soul crossed and possessed the statue of the land god, his attribute panel also changed a lot. It was completely different from the attribute panel in Hong Kong Comprehensive World. It was a surprise to Ling Yaodong. I didn't expect this system to still [ Advancing with the times] Ah:

God Lord: Ling Yaodong
God's name: Lord of the Earth (gray)
Divine product: no entry
Divine Power: 25
Handle: none
Magic: none
Talent: [-]-fold increase

Merits: none
Mission: none
...................................................................................................................................................

Ling Yaodong used to be a human face, but this one has become a god face.

Although it's just a land lord.

But don't take the village chief as a cadre, and don't take the land owner as a god!

Di Di Gong, also known as Fudezheng God, She Shen, etc., is one of the folk beliefs of the Han nationality.

"February [-]" of the lunar calendar (in ancient times, it was the fifth fifth day after the beginning of spring) is the Christmas day of the Lord of the Earth.

In southern China, such as Zhejiang, Fujian, Guangdong, Guangxi and other regions, the Lord of Earth is generally enshrined.

The public belief in the land entrusts the good wishes of the Chinese working people to dispel evil spirits, avoid disasters, and pray for blessings.

In Chinese folk, the Lord of the Land is also regarded as the god of wealth and good fortune, because the Chinese people believe that "where there is land, there will be wealth", so the Lord of the Land is regarded as the patron saint by the merchants.

Human beings cannot stand without soil, and cannot eat without grain. "Soil" can produce all things, nourish human beings to multiply and live, and its merits are so great that it is worshiped as a god.

The Land Lord is in charge of both land administration and finance.We often hear sayings such as "earning public money from the land" and "giving money from the land public", and this is what they mean.

In the past, after people died, they went up to the mountain to dig a cemetery, and they had to press paper money from the mountain to rent the mountain. In the funeral procession, they had to throw paper money—buying road money to guide them. affairs.

It can be said that the land public integrates "land administration, finance, and moral administration" in one body, and the importance of responsibilities can be seen. It is listed as one of the "five sacrificial offerings" in ancient cases.

Although the position is low, but the weight ah!

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… ...........

Originally, Ling Yaodong thought that when he crossed over, he would follow the consistent setting of the starting point orphanage and transmigrated into a young body that died of serious injuries, and there were various causes and effects in this body. Either someone was greedy for his money, or Some people want to regret the marriage to him, otherwise there would be no fights and killings caused by conflicts, and the subsequent plot would be ugly.

But I don't want to, the object of his soul crossing is dead, but it is a land lord who is unable to support because of the loss of incense, and finally collapses.

Because there is no incense, Ling Yaodong has no way to integrate the [Shinto Talisman] in the statue of the God of the Land, so naturally he cannot successfully transfer jobs.

What's even more helpless is that the statue of the God of the Earth also restrained him, making him [make ends meet].

You know, even ghosts need to [eat] every day—to absorb Yin Qi.

But Ling Yaodong can't.

Although using [no way] to describe Ling Yaodong frustrates his self-esteem, but [no way] means [no way]. ,

He is now struggling to survive every day relying on the only divine power in the statue of the God of the Land.

Ling Yaodong calculated that the minimum daily consumption for survival is 5 points of divine power.

In other words, the remaining 25 points of divine power can only allow Ling Yaodong to live for another five days.

After five days, if Ling Yaodong has no incense in the account, to be precise, there is not a large amount of incense in the account, then Ling Yaodong will announce that this time [Soul Traveling] he died before he finished his mission.

Well, it's not physical death, but the kind of fate where the soul is scattered.

Thinking of this fate, Ling Yaodong couldn't help shaking his head.

In the last life, um, the last world was too messy, so this world will suffer retribution?Standing in front of his statue, Ling Yaodong couldn't help laughing bitterly.

He didn't want to get into the statue, which was a claustrophobic and dark space, very depressing and uncomfortable.

Only during the day, when the sun was so hot that Ling Yaodong's ghost was smoking, did Ling Yaodong have to hide in it.

At night, he always comes out of the idol.

But the idol bound him, and he couldn't leave the 100-meter radius around the idol.

Since crossing, Ling Yaodong has visited all the places around him countless times, and he is tired of looking at them.

It's really [look].

Because unless Ling Yaodong consumes divine power, he has no interference with anything in the real world.

And divine power is related to Ling Yaodong's dog's life.

Ling Yaodong didn't dare to use it indiscriminately.

When Ling Yaodong wanted to walk out of a place within a radius of 100 meters from the statue, he would have a feeling in his heart that once he walked out, he would be greeted with dismay on the spot.

"This damn land lord!" Thinking of this, Ling Yaodong couldn't help cursing again.

If the soul travels, it will travel. If you don't give him a physical body, you can also let him be a ghost directly!

Unexpectedly, even a ghost can make such a ghost!
"It must be that I was too careless in the last world!" Ling Yaodong couldn't help but reflect on himself again. He made up his mind that if this world can overcome this difficulty, he must not be so carefree.

Well, the main thing is that he is now in the state of a ghost. Unless he becomes one of those high-quality gods and condenses into a golden body of incense, otherwise, even if he wants to make waves, he can only make friends with others!
It's really a literal [divine friendship]!
"Eh... I'm about to die, and I'm still thinking about this!"

Ling Yaodong was still reflecting on himself next to the statue, and suddenly from the nearby grove, he heard hurried footsteps and a cry for help, "Master, help!"

"Someone?"

"Help?"

Ling Yaodong's spirit was shocked - this is an opportunity?
He actually had tears in his eyes, hope is better than no hope
Come on, help me?Land Lord save you!Just contribute your incense sticks!

Ling Yaodong followed the prestige excitedly.

I saw a young man wearing a blue Taoist robe with a childish face, who looked no more than twelve or thirteen years old, running out of the woods in terror.

Behind him was a hanged ghost dressed in white, with his feet not touching the ground and his tongue sticking out a meter long.

Seeing that the hanged ghost was getting closer and closer to the boy, his scarlet tongue was about to touch the boy.

The young man became even more frightened, and accidentally stepped on a round branch under his feet, and the whole person rushed over, and just happened to lie down in front of Ling Yaodong's statue.

The young man was ashamed immediately, feeling the wind gusts behind him, and the hanged ghost had come behind him, he couldn't help but said, "Mantian gods and Buddhas, which one is good, help!"

Ling Yaodong felt a faint ray of incense wish power emerge from the young man's body and landed on Ling Yaodong's soul.

A familiar voice came from Ling Yaodong's ear.

[A popular believer made an insincere prayer to you, and you get 1 point of incense power. 】

According to the knowledge Ling Yaodong got from the statue, plus his own estimation, 3 points of incense wish power can be converted into 1 point of divine power.

And to save this young man from the hanged ghost, it takes a lot of divine power to consume.

This is a total loss-making business.

"That's all! Who told you to let me save my life!" Ling Yaodong sighed inwardly, and began to use his only divine power.

He is not yet a land lord, and he doesn't even have a priesthood, let alone divine magic. He can only use divine power directly, but in this way, the efficiency of using divine power is very low.

With a thought in Ling Yaodong's mind, the divine power turned into pale white light, with a faint scent of sandalwood, and turned into a mask, covering the young man.

It was also at this moment that the hanged ghost's tongue touched the mask.

When ghost energy and divine power touched, the entire divine power shield suddenly burst into ripples.

The hanged ghost in white froze for a moment.

The boy was also taken aback.

Then the hanged ghost seemed to be enraged, his scarlet tongue was full of ghostly aura, and he frantically whipped the divine power shield.

There were many blood shadows, and the shield of divine power kept shaking, as if it was about to shatter in the next second.

Ling Yaodong, who shrunk into the statue for the first time, looked even more bitter. He could only increase the output of divine power and strengthen the strength of the divine power shield, so as not to be broken by the tongue of the hanged ghost.

But in this way, the divine power will be consumed like water.

Originally, Ling Yaodong could barely live for five days, but now, he doesn't know if he can live for three days!

Moreover, just defending without offense will never solve the problem.

With a thought in Ling Yaodong's mind, his divine power turned into a white fist again, and he punched the unsuspecting hanged ghost in white.

Well, now it is estimated that I can only live a little more than a day.

"boom!"

Ling Yaodong's [Divine Fist] hit the body of the hanged ghost in white.

His punch was still a bit heavy, and he directly beat the hanged ghost in white back again and again, causing the ghost's body to turmoil for a while.

Of course, the illusory [God Fist] also collapsed after the attack.

It took a while for the ghost body to stabilize.

The hanged ghost in white looked angrily at the statue in front of the boy.

No matter how it loses its mind, it knows that it is the ghost of the idol.

Seeing that it was about to attack the statue possessed by Ling Yaodong.

At this moment, a calm voice sounded, "Monster! Dare!"

It was a young Taoist in a yellow Taoist robe, with brows forming a line on both sides.

Just listen to the young Taoist pinching his fingers and saying, "Hurry up like a law! Exorcise evil spirits!"

I saw a yellow charm floating above the hanged ghost in white.

As the young Taoist chanted the incantation, the yellow talisman instantly glowed yellow and fell on the hanged ghost in white.

Thick black smoke suddenly rose from the body of the hanged ghost in white, accompanied by its screams.

When the thick smoke dissipated, the body of the hanged ghost in white became extremely illusory, as if it could be blown away by a gust of wind.

The young Taoist took out a wine-red gourd from nowhere, opened the lid of the gourd, pointed at the white-clothed hanged ghost, and shouted, "Take it!"

In an instant, a strong suction emerged from the mouth of the wine-red gourd, aiming at the hanged ghost in white.

The hanged ghost in white didn't have much ability to resist, so he was sucked in by the wine-red gourd.

The young Taoist covers the gourd.

"Master!" The boy who was protected by Ling Yaodong's divine shield shouted with joy on his face.

Seeing this, Ling Yaodong silently withdrew his divine power, and the shield disappeared.

Now he can barely survive a day.

"Hey! Before he died, he did a good deed, and I'm also a good person." Ling Yaodong said with a curl of his lips, not feeling scared, but just a little regretful.

I haven't seen the splendor of this world yet, so I just rushed to the street like this, so I feel a little regretful!

……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… ……

"Master, it's a good thing you're here!" The boy jumped three feet high, and happily ran towards the young Taoist whose eyebrows were connected in one line, "I almost died!"

"Usually I tell you to practice hard, but you don't listen! When something happens, you just call for help! What if I'm not by your side next time?" the young Taoist taught the boy.

The young man lowered his head, smiled dryly and dared not answer.
