Chapter 1: The Boys Here Section 3: Ten Thousand People Come to Worship
"I heard that someone built a ancestral hall for "Stone God Fairy". When Shi Shenxian cured her illness, she died unexpectedly. She was also a poor person. Her lower limbs could not move, and her bandages were wrapped around her body for several times, and she looked like a dead person."
"We have also heard that tomorrow is the seventh day of Shi Shenxian's death, so we will also go to worship. Shi Shenxian was alone when he was alive to treat everyone's illness and disaster relief. The first seven after his death, we should not be too desolate. I will take my wife, children, and the elderly to worship Shi Shenxian."
Things like this happen in the streets and alleys, as if they were arranged, and many people know about the matter of ancestral halls and sacrifices.
...
Xu Jinsong's name was a Taoist Bai Ling, who tied up the ancestral hall for stones, and he also became a monk since then.
Today is the seventh head of the stone bondage, the stone god. Taoist Bai Ling said, "Open the temple gate and welcome people to worship. Each person bows three times, one bows one stick of incense."
The ancestral hall was on a mountain in the west of the city. The gate of the ancestral hall was opened. The two people opened the door were surprised. There were so many people in front of the door that they looked at the lineup from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain. They said loudly: Living gods, stone bondage ceremony begins now, each person worships three times, one stick of incense. The same sect and one row, the same clan and the same clan, worship together.
After everyone entered the door, they looked at the statue bound by the stone, and couldn't help but burst into tears. Dozens of monks sat behind the statue, singing eulogy: "There is a living god in Jincheng who doesn't want the gods to die in front of the people. The three major families do good deeds. I wish you to return to your hometown and keep this longevity card at home. Children and grandchildren pray for you to pity the heavens. Gods and Buddhas are all in the mountains and rivers. The dead souls don't know where to return. Good will be rewarded with good and evil will be rewarded with fruits. The stones in the heavens and earth will not be bound."
Accompanied by the sound of the eulogy, with the mourning and great sorrow, the people in the queue vaguely showed a painful expression. The stone bondage is so jealous that the talent will not live long. There is no glory before his death, but after his death, he has "a unique sense of prosperity."
At noon, there were endless people coming and sacrificial people. However, just as the two guards wanted to tell everyone that when they came to worship again in the afternoon, they saw dozens of people galloping on horseback, with hundreds of officers and soldiers following the guards behind them.
The two boys were busy going up to lead the horse, and they looked like big shots.
A middle-aged man turned over and got off the horse, bowed to everyone first, and said, "I am worshiping Brother Shi. I shouldn't have been like this. Brother Shi shouldn't like my current behavior, but I really came from afar to the capital to bury these three incense sticks for Brother Shi, and I have to do the important things. I don't have to go back to my family. Please give me some convenience."
"Children, why don't you go and get incense?" said a strong man in military uniform behind the official.
The man who was dismounted was wearing plain clothes and did not wear official uniforms. He just looked at the posture and heard that he was an official from the capital. He looked at the posture and was not a small person. Everyone had no time to complain about the stone bondage when he knew this person.
The "big man" spoke, "Brother Shi, I, Xu Yan, are here."
As soon as this statement came out, the mountain was no longer peaceful. Xu Yan came. The official from the capital was called Xu Yan.! He was not allowed to go home?! Who else dared to call this name besides the prime minister of the current dynasty? And the family is still here, Xu Yan, the head of the Xu family, Xu Yan. The prime minister of the current dynasty was under one person and above millions of people. Everyone knelt down one after another. This genius of the Xu family is the greatest pride of Jincheng now.
"Brother Shi, we have known each other since childhood. I like famous scholars. You like miracle doctors for generations. I am determined to be in the officialdom. Now I have become a prime minister. You also wrote a letter to congratulate me, saying that I would drink a drink together when I return home. I don't expect that you, who had become a miracle doctor at that time, died in an unknown difficulty. At that time, you were famous in your hometown, so I invited you to go to Beijing to perform, either for the people or for the official, but you wouldn't. It is said that solving the difficult and complicated diseases in this world is the joy of this life. Are you happy to have this end?"
Xu Yan bowed three times, and once three incense sticks. When he came out of the ancestral hall, everyone saw him, and there was a trace of tears in the corner of his eyes. Not only was he a little inexplicably sad.
He turned over and took everyone away with his horse.
The people knelt on the ground and shouted "Send to the prime minister respectfully"
This afternoon, this incident was spread, and it is believed that it will become a good story in the future. The prime minister of the dynasty was busy with government affairs and did not forget his childhood friends, because he was sentimental. He once wanted him to go to the capital to perform, which was righteous. He worked hard for the country and the people himself for loyalty. I believe that the head of the Xu family is living so well now, and it must be Xu Yan's filial piety and respectful care. This prime minister is really, with affection and righteousness, loyalty and filial piety.
"Today, the stones are bound to seven heads, and thousands of people come to worship. This censor Xu is loudly awesome, and the words in front of the temple are even more touching..." Haha, the Xu family is really full of talents. Taoist Bai Ling murmured.
When night comes, the sacrifice is over and the door of the ancestral hall is closed.
There was a thunder out of nowhere, and the lightning struck in front of the door. Taoist Bai Ling hurriedly asked someone to push him to see. He found that there was a huge pit on the ground in front of the door, and there was a sword and a broken string piano in the pit. Taoist Bai Ling was very shocked. After the sender took it out, he couldn't eat dinner, so he went back to the room. Both boys were sent by the Xu family and were about to report it. It started to rain heavily in the sky and it immediately poured in.
The next morning, someone reported to the official that two bodies were found. After investigation, they were two corpses of Taoist Bai Ling. After being inspected, they both died of falling and falling due to the heavy rain yesterday. When the Xu family heard about it, they sent two more boys. Taoist Bai Ling erected monuments for him and placed them behind the statue bound by stone...
