I didn't intend to be a Fairy
Chapter 499 Plan to improve the Shinto system
"Dianjun..."
"Currently, there is only one Ghost Emperor in charge of the ghost city. I invited him here, and he is the Yuewang Shenjun of Yizhou. The Yuewang Shenjun is upright but lazy by nature. The Ghost Emperor also ignores the actual affairs and does not hold real power. In addition, there are also Buddhist sects in Xitian. An agent works in a ghost town to save evil spirits. He is a very virtuous monk. To prevent accidents, I also hired a great demon to temporarily sit here. However, these two have neither level nor power. ." Song You explained to him, "Currently, all affairs in the ghost city are divided into three halls, and the first hall is the largest among the three halls. The king of the hall is the master of the first hall."
"I see."
Based on this calculation, Dianjun can be regarded as the highest authority in the ghost town.
From the city god who was confined to Changjing to the leader of the city gods in the world, from the earth god of a mere place to the existence of the underworld, second only to the palace king, it was undoubtedly a great opportunity.
"I don't know who the Lord is..."
"What a fairy, what a prime minister."
"What's the matter?"
The old city god was immediately in awe.
This year is still an era of spiritual achievements. Many gods are not far away from today. The old city god is the head of the previous emperor. Of course, the whereabouts of the emperor have not yet been determined by the court, and the prince has not yet ascended the throne in Changjing. Sitting in the palace, otherwise he would be the abbot of the previous emperor. The era in which he lived had many intersections with that of He Xiang.
Of course, in his time, he was far from comparable to He in terms of status, power and reputation.
He Xiang is the prime minister of the current dynasty, holding great power. He will also be a famous minister and prime minister through the ages, destined to be famous for generations.
And he was just a father-in-law, and his daughter was born well.
Affiliated to the Ghost City Yinsi, he was only half a level lower than the Lord of the First Hall, which was undoubtedly a huge improvement for his priesthood. His immediate boss was the same as before, and he couldn't be called aggrieved at all.
Naturally, there are ten thousand wishes in my heart.
The next step is to discuss the details.
"It's just that in Dayan's 1,800 counties, there are city gods all over the country, so it's natural to choose people with virtue and merit. It's not an easy task for a city god to have civil and military personnel under his command." The old city god said with a frown.
"It is indeed troublesome, and it cannot be accomplished overnight." Song You nodded and said, "However, the tree of embrace is born from the ground, the nine-story platform starts from tired soil, and a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. Although the world is known as There are 1,800 counties, but there are only dozens of states. Each state has only a few counties, and each county has only a few counties. You can start with the state cities and work your way down."
"That's true..."
The City God nodded and said thoughtfully, "But there are so many people with virtues and merits scattered all over the place, so it's not easy to find them."
Then he looked left and right at the two auxiliary officers:
"It's okay to be a civil servant. As long as you have good moral merit and ability, even a new ghost who doesn't have much moral character can take the position. But a military attache has to deal with the evil spirits in the city, and his duties are to investigate, expel, arrest, hunt and fight. Xiao Several of the military officers under the god were highly skilled during their lifetimes. Although they were named earth gods after their death, they only gradually acquired the ability to fight evil spirits after absorbing the incense in the city for many years. Such warriors must also have virtuous merits. It may be difficult to find it in a short time, and even if it is found, it may not be useful within a few years.”
"There is no need for the City God to worry about this. Before we came to Changjing, we had already visited Fengzhou Ghost Town and asked He Dianjun to select people with high moral character and meritorious service in the various states and counties. After selecting them, he invited them to report to the City God Temple in Changjing. ." Song You said for a moment, "As for military attachés, they are indeed difficult to find. However, when we traveled around the world, we encountered a special turtle city in Yanzhou in the north. The ghosts in the city were all soldiers who died defending the country on the frontier. , are all warriors themselves, and have been infected by the evil spirit of blood. Turtle City is a rare place with strong Yin energy, a sanctuary for raising ghosts. Over the years, most of the soldiers, generals and captains in the city have developed a moral character that can only be compared to old ghosts. When passing by, he pointed out a path to the earth gods for them. From then on, they often patrolled Yanzhou at night, killing evil spirits and ghosts to ensure the safety of the place. There were people in the area who actually made offerings to them and regarded them as earth gods. We have been serving the same people for several years now."
"hiss……"
The old city god couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, and was shocked to realize that this man had actually started preparing for it several years ago.
These ghost soldiers and ghost generals have skills and achievements, and they have done the work of patrolling the evil spirits and earth gods beforehand. They are familiar with this way, can there be any more suitable candidates than them?
In fact, not only him, but also Song You himself couldn't help but be slightly startled when he said this.
I heard that after Yuan'an City was occupied by ghost soldiers and generals, the Imperial Preceptor ordered that the turtle city be abandoned for these ghosts to live and practice. I don't know what the Imperial Preceptor had in mind at that time - he was the one who originally raised these ghosts. Will the Binggui have other uses, or was it originally prepared for this moment?
"I wonder how many soldiers there are?"
"Originally there were more than 1,200, but after the decisive battle in the north, the number increased to 1,500 due to the bloody battle. After I asked Yan'er to send a message, probably 1,300 went to the ghost town to report."
"One thousand and three, that's more than enough." The old City God nodded repeatedly and said, "One thousand and eight hundred cities in the world will gradually set up official offices of City God temples. These heroic souls will be enough for a long time. There are still chivalrous people in the world. In this process, we can slowly Collect, recommend by people and ghosts, enough is enough, completely enough."
It can be seen that the city god is very satisfied.
"It has been some time since we left Fengzhou Ghost City. It may not be long before ghosts are escorted here by heroic spirits to report here." Song You said to him, "At that time, please ask the City God to judge them well." For evil, review the merits and demerits, and entrust various places according to their character, merit, ability, and the location of their ancestral home."
"The little god will also inform the court's Ministry of Etiquette and ask them to build a City God's Temple in the local area and register the names of the City God and the priests."
The old city god said this confidently.
It seems that the Ministry of Rites will not agree.
Compared with the Changjing City God who wanted to see the face of the Minister of Rites a few years ago, there is a huge difference.
"The prime minister of the current dynasty is also an old friend of mine. I will also explain to him Chen Qing's interests so that the court can cooperate as much as possible." Song You said, "Let's each contribute our own efforts."
"Sir, you have done most of your work."
"More than half of the efforts I have to put in have already been made here. From now on, most of them will be the city god's troubles." Song You said and paused, "This should be the last time we return to Beijing. After that, whether we travel around the world or return Fengzhou condenses the underworld and will never pass through Changjing again. But there are other things to do this time, and it will not leave until next spring and summer. During this period, whether the city god has anything to discuss, or If you have any trouble and need help, just come to us. You can come to us in your dreams or in person."
"The little god understands."
"Our paintings and travel notes..."
"I almost forgot! Please wait!"
The old city god slapped his forehead and went to get it himself.
Not long after, he came out again, holding a pile of square packages wrapped in oil paper in his arms, with two paintings on top.
"Sir, please check."
The city god placed it on the table next to him.
Song You didn't check the oil-paper package, but just opened the two paintings and looked at them. One of them was backed by a rolling mountain, with a carpet of reeds, blown in the same direction by the wind. On the path in the painting, there was a Taoist and the calico cat Zaohong. The figures of the horses merged, and another painting of apricot blossoms on a long mountain was taken out, but only a corner of the painting was taken. The Taoist and the cat were sitting side by side on the corridor. The cat tilted its body and leaned faintly against the Taoist.
Song You opened it and looked at it, and the calico cat also put his feet up to look at it.
It's just that her angle doesn't look very convenient.
"It was indeed right to place it here with the City God. It has not faded at all. If it had been brought in the rivers and lakes, it would have been stained by the traces of years of travel." Song You shook his head and sighed, then closed the painting and put it away, and respectfully thanked the City God. , "Thank you City God."
"Thank you City God!"
"It should be, it should be, as long as the scroll is intact."
"I will take my leave first. The City God has official duties, so there is no need to send him far away."
"Sir, walk slowly." The Old City God and the two auxiliary officers saluted, "Empress Sanhua, walk slowly too."
"Meow……"
One person and one cat walked to their original positions.
There were still five young priests in front of them. Only one heard the appropriate prayer and was writing a record. The other one was in a daze, one was speechless, and the two looked at them with curiosity.
The calico cat couldn't help but look at them.
Suddenly there were ripples in the water before my eyes.
When Mao'er came to his senses, he and the Taoist priest were still standing in the main hall of the City God's Temple. The five young priests in front gradually disappeared and turned back to the original altar. In the middle was the Changjing City God, and beside him were those who often accompanied him. Two auxiliary officers and two military attachés. There are still people kneeling on the five futons, sincerely offering incense and praying silently, but there are a different group of people than before.
In the Taoist's hand, there was an extra package and two scrolls.
People kept walking in, and people kept coming out after offering incense. When they passed by, they all cast strange looks at them.
It seemed that he didn't know why this Taoist came to the City God's Temple and brought a cat with him, and he didn't seem to know why they stood here for so long, or maybe he disliked them for blocking the road.
"Let's go."
The Taoist said softly, hugged the things and left.
The cat looked back frequently, curious, and her heart was itching like a cat scratching, but there was nothing she could do. The Taoist priest had already left. No matter how puzzled she was, she had no choice but to follow him.
As he walked, he jumped up to hug the Taoist's feet and tried to throw him to the ground.
The damage is almost zero.
"Don't be too envious of Empress Sanhua. At the beginning, Empress Sanhua's Shinto career just started, but it collapsed in the middle. If Empress Sanhua continues, she will have a bright future. Such skills can be understood naturally by the gods, and the priests under her can also understand them. There will always be something." Song You said as he walked, "Although the Shinto cause is gone now, there is a freer and broader world, and the future is promising."
"Meow..."
Walking out of the gate of the City God's Temple, Song You couldn't help but stop and use the height of the City God's Temple to overlook the Changjing City.
What a spectacular city.
