There is an inn in the sky

Chapter 424 The Turtle and the Bat

In front of the old well.

Before the man could take a few steps, he fell to the ground with a plop.

Yan Qingkong was slightly surprised when he saw it, and after thinking about it for a while, he realized that he was fainted by the smell of corpses.

Is this retribution?

vomit--

At this moment, Yan Qingkong couldn't take it any longer, so he hurried out of the yard.

But the stench of corpses has already spread out of the yard, Yan Qingkong glanced back at the old building, and sighed slightly in his heart, how many lives...

At this moment, a figure crept into the yard, and was immediately disgusted by the stench.

He quickly pinched his nose, and carefully looked around, and then found the man by the old well.He approached lightly, touched it lightly with his foot, and found that the person who fell on the ground was still, he was slightly stunned.

When he took a closer look, he seemed to be slightly relieved when he saw someone familiar.

Then, his face struggled a little, as if he had made up his mind, he raised his head and looked around.After a while, I found that there was no one around, so I dragged the fainted person to the well platform, and then threw him into the well...

thump!
Hearing the sound of falling into the water, the man panicked and fled away.

Yan Qingkong couldn't help frowning his brows, what's going on?

Is it a case in case?

He was silent for a while, and the figure quickly appeared on the well platform. When he found that there was still movement in the well, he reached out to the well and used "fetching objects from space" to suck people up.

"Save, save..."

shoot!
The man was struggling, and before he could say help, Yan Qingkong slapped him unconscious, and then he was thrown by the well.

Although he choked on the corpse water, he couldn't die for the time being.

However, the temperature is only six or seven degrees now, and the clothes are dripping wet. I'm afraid...

Yan Qingkong shook his head and left, too lazy to pay attention to these crap.

When he returned to the Earth Temple, he found that it was past three o'clock in the morning, so he took the false god to Potou Village managed by Shen Zhibai through the Changsheng Inn as a transit point.

……

Earth Temple in Potou Village.

"I know."

After Yan Qingkong walked in, he said to the statue.

"gentlemen."

A faint phantom emerged and bowed to Yan Qingkong.

At this time, Yan Qingkong briefly talked about the false gods, and told Shen Zhibai to observe secretly...

"clear."

Shen Zhibai nodded, feeling a little shocked inside.

Steal incense, occupy the temple?
And this kind of operation?

After a while, Yan Qingkong left Potou Village, but did not return to the Changsheng Inn, but continued to walk around the world at will.

In one day, I encountered two incidents of stealing incense...

This made him have to pay attention.

As for Potou Village, Shen Zhibai did not come out to meet the false gods, but only observed in secret.As long as the false god does not harm anyone, he will not appear...

The false god didn't know about Shen Zhibai's existence for the time being, and was just looking around curiously.

……

Not long after, Yan Qingkong fell from the sky and walked towards a temple with a large layout.

This is a Dawanggong temple, which is enshrined by many people because of "protecting the country and protecting life, protecting the environment and the people". There is a steady stream of incense believers, especially in the southeast coast.

For example, in Fuxian County on the southeast coast, the most respected deity is the Grand Maharaja.

According to incomplete statistics, there are more than 600 palaces and temples of folk belief in the county, among which there are more than [-] grand palaces, and some villages even have two or three grand palaces.

There are not a few other temples, halls, environments, and societies dedicated to the great princes.

The ten palaces and temples in the West Village all enshrine the great prince.

In Fu County, many folk festival customs are closely related to the prince.Years before and after the year, the grand prince is first worshiped to thank the gods for safety and abundance; after the festival, the ceremonies, worship, carry the grand prince on a parade, pray for a bumper harvest of grains, prosperity of six animals, and live and work in peace and contentment...

As for who the great prince is, and what is his origin.

This has its own interpretation.

Yan Qingkong knew about it before, because near his middle school, there is a large Dawanggong Temple.

Every March [-]th in the lunar calendar, it is very lively.

At this time, he walked into the Dawanggong Temple, where several low-wattage light bulbs were lit, and there was still unburned letter incense on the incense burner, and there was a faint smell of letter incense.

The Dawanggong Temple has three entrances, with wing rooms on the left and right.

Yan Qingkong walked to the main hall, took a stick of incense from the short table next to it, lit the oil lamp on the other side, and inserted it into the incense burner after praying.

Seeing that the incense was not stolen, Yan Qingkong was slightly relieved.

When he came out and saw the small pond in the big courtyard, his brows were slightly frowned.

The small pond is not big, about four or five square meters, and the water in the pond is also not deep, only twenty or thirty centimeters. Besides a few koi, there is also a big turtle.

This big tortoise is black olive in color, much larger than common washbasins, and has an oblong body with a slightly raised carapace. There are three longitudinal ridges, and the ridges are obvious...

This is a long-lived turtle.

But it looks like the turtle I saw before.

Yan Qingkong couldn't help but stepped forward, squatted down and looked at the big turtle in the pool, as if it was really the same.However, the county seat is at least a thousand kilometers away from the Dawanggong Temple. How could it be the same turtle?
How is this going?

Yan Qingkong frowned and thought.

This small pond is too small for a turtle of this size.

Tonight, what caught his attention was first a yellow dog, then two encounters with blue bats, and then two encounters with longevity turtles.

This……

Does it indicate something?
"It's probably not a yellow dog, then it's a bat and a tortoise." Yan Qingkong looked at the tortoise for a while, then stood up, squinted his eyes and looked at the night sky, "What do they have to do with each other?"

At this time, he squatted down again, and said to the tortoise, "Old guy, what do you mean? Have I met you before..."

The turtle woke up and looked up at Yan Qingkong.

A pair of spiritual eyes...

"What do you want to say?"

Yan Qingkong looked into the tortoise's eyes, and couldn't help feeling a little surprised. He felt that there was something hidden in the tortoise's eyes.

Too bad the tortoise can't talk.

"Longevity turtles naturally represent longevity, but what about cyan bats?"

Yan Qingkong whispered to himself, but he had never heard that bats represent longevity, and for a while he couldn't figure out what it meant.

After a while, he left the Dawanggong Temple.

And the tortoise looked at the back of him leaving, and seemed a little disappointed...

At some point, he appeared in another temple, worshiped a stick of incense, then left, and then went to the next temple...

Before long, the sky turned pale in the east.

At this time, Yan Qingkong came to a village and stood in front of a Shennong Temple with only seven or eight square meters.For the villagers who haven't even been to the county seat a few times, they naturally don't know the great achievements of Shennong, and they don't even know who Shennong is for the time being.

I only know that Shennong Temple blesses good weather and good harvests...

Just as he was about to enter the Shennong Temple, he saw a big blue bat flying out of the old longan tree in front of the temple.
