Land god

"Gaizi, I brought you some food." That night, Du Qian came back from inspection outside, holding a bunch of soft red persimmons in his hand, and handed them to Zhang Gai.

Under the advice of the Kitchen Goddess, Du Qian discovered that spirit bodies can also eat, but unlike ordinary people who eat physical food, what they eat is the essence of the food.And if you use divine power, you can also transform the essence into the appearance of food, and the taste and texture are not much different from the real thing.

Du Qian, who had just discovered this, was very excited. He often went to the villagers' homes to extract the essence of the prepared meals and turned them into food to enjoy with Zhang Gai. All the men in the village complained about their wife's recent The cooking skills have declined, and the cooked meals are tasteless - because the essence of food is the essence of food, so after being absorbed, the food will lose its original deliciousness.

Fortunately, Du Qian didn't do this kind of thing anymore after the novelty was over, and because he often went to the mountains to inspect, he turned to collect the essence of those wild fruits in the mountains and bring them back to eat.Taking these essences is also a kind of nourishment for the spiritual body, and the effect is very direct. It only took a few days, and Zhang Gai's originally pale complexion became rosy, and he didn't look ghostly at all.

In a blink of an eye, it was the beginning of November, and the two errands who had been here last month, Bai Jiu Hei 21, came to parade again.Du Qian invited the two into the temple, and asked Zhang Gai to serve Ganoderma lucidum tea made with dew and spirit of Ganoderma lucidum to the two men. He said with a smile, "I neglected you two last time. I can eat, so I didn't entertain the two of you."

Bai Jiu almost spit out the Ganoderma lucidum tea, couldn't help laughing and said, "Zun Shen is such an honest man!" Hei 21 also twitched his mouth and looked at the ground, obviously holding back his laughter.

The two sides chatted again, and Bai Jiu asked about nothing that had happened in the past month, and then said: "This time, we have something good to tell the gods." A black wooden sign.

Du Qian took a look at the black card, and saw that there was a complex character with twists and turns on it. He could only confirm that it was a Chinese character from the structure of the strokes, but he couldn't tell what the specific character was.

I was sweating secretly in my heart, the illiteracy of the gods in this land is also a big joke--, fortunately, Bai Jiu didn't ask him what was written on the wooden sign, but just smiled and said: "We went back last time and took this Brother Zhang's matter was reported to the higher-ups, who would have thought that the higher-ups were very talkative this time, so they gave him a name tag, and from now on, Brother Zhang can be regarded as a errand with status, so you don't have to be afraid that other errands will embarrass you when you go out."

Du Qian was overjoyed, and quickly asked Zhang Gai to serve tea to the two servants as a thank you.Zhang Gai is still very afraid of the classic characters in ghost stories like black and white impermanence, but seeing Bai Jiu with a pleasant smile and Hei 21 with a stern face, there is no vicious look, so he bravely came up to serve tea respectfully kowtow.

Bai Jiu helped him up with a smile, and said to Du Qian: "Zunshen must be a newly ascended god. If you don't understand anything in the future, you can ask our brothers. It's rare to meet such a kind person like you. We are the same. Willing to oblige."

Du Qian quickly thanked them, and the two errands sat for a while, because they had to inspect other places, so they said goodbye and left.

After sending away the two errants, Du Qian handed the wooden card to Zhang Gai. After Zhang Gai took it, the wooden card turned into a black light and entered his body, and then he stretched out his hand, but it appeared in his hand again.He had never seen such a miraculous thing before, so he couldn't help it several times, and said in a tongue-tied raving: "Could it be that I will be black and white in the future? I don't know how to catch ghosts~"

Du Qian chuckled, and said, "That's not the case, you are still my emissary, but you have an extra formal identity, just like the difference between the people registered in the government and the refugees without identity."

Zhang Gai heaved a sigh of relief and said, "That's good, that's good."

Before you know it, it is late autumn, the leaves are withering, and the weather is getting colder and colder. One night, the sky was full of stars. Du Qian sat on a cliff in the West Mountain to enjoy the moonlight. The leaves of the trees fluttered down.

In a trance, he seemed to hear the trees sighing, as if they were lamenting the departure of these leaves.

This is the first time he has come into contact with the thoughts of plants, and his mind can't help being immersed in the past.

Du Qian communicated with the consciousness of the trees, sensed the world in their eyes, and found that they were rooted in the soil, like babies sleeping soundly in the arms of their mothers, and turned their branches to the sky, like curious urchins, although their thinking is more powerful than animals It is much simpler, but I still understand the world from my own perspective.

Du Qian sighed in his heart, his consciousness unknowingly developed more and more, and gradually merged with the whole forest, and the consciousness of the animals living in the forest were intertwined with him.In a trance, he had a feeling of dominating all creatures on the earth.

"That's right, why do I always think that the land gods only protect human beings? Since every flower and grass has its own spirituality, as a part of the land, I should naturally protect all living things on the ground, and it's not limited to human beings? !"

As soon as this thought came to his mind, he saw a golden light shining in front of his eyes, and he seemed to hear the joyful voices of countless creatures in his consciousness. When he woke up, he found himself enveloped in a dense golden light. Golden light lingered around his body, like a golden haze.

"This is..." Du Qian was still a little confused about the situation, but saw those golden lights flashing suddenly, and then disappeared from the spot with him.

The next moment, Du Qian found himself in a strange area, with a yellow light cloud above his head, soft and dark land under his feet, and a thatched hut not far away, with several fruit trees planted beside it.There is a small pond in the distance, and several acres of fields with flowers and plants.

The strangest thing is that this place only has an area of ​​a few miles, and beyond this range, there is a grayish-yellow mist shrouded, like a dream.

After arriving here, the golden light lingering around Du Qian's body began to enter his body. The feeling of enlightenment when he inherited the throne of the land came to him again. In a trance, many messages appeared in his body In his mind, even the book of land gods in his arms flew up, radiating golden light and hovering above his head.

"It turns out that there is still such a difference in the position of the God of the Land!" Because Mingwu received the information, Du Qian understood what happened.

It turns out that there is a difference between the God of Man and the God of Earth in the position of God of Earth.The position of the human god, which is the one inherited by Du Qian before, is produced by the belief of the mortal, and the divine power also comes from the belief of the mortal, and the duty is closely related to the life of the mortal.And if a mortal does not worship or believe in it for a long time, his divine power will naturally dissipate, and thus he will fall from the position of god and become an ordinary ghost again.

But the gods of the earth are different. The gods of the earth are in charge of the natural forces of the heaven and the earth, and their responsibilities lie in the heaven and the earth. They have nothing to do with the beliefs of mortals.

The abilities of the land god as an earth god and the land god as a human god are completely different. For example, at this time, the land boundary under Du Qian's jurisdiction expanded from a radius of [-] miles to a radius of [-] miles.At this time, the place he was in was the "Futian" dedicated to the land of the earth god.

Futian is a space formed by gathering the essence of earth energy under the jurisdiction of the land god, just like the blessed land of Taoist practice, it is the place where Zhongling is beautiful.

Although the area of ​​Futian is much smaller than that of Futian, except for the God of Earth, even the gods and gods are not allowed to enter here, even if they have great power to beat Futian's earth energy from the outside. scattered, and then completely destroyed, but still can't enter it freely, because this is a small world that belongs only to the God of the Earth.
