The temple in front is not open.
Write three big characters "Perfect Enlightenment Hall" on it.
There is no need to open this temple, Li Yan already knows that the Attendant inside is Buddha Tathagata, or Twelve Yuanjue Bodhisattvas.
It doesn't matter who is inside, the key is the breath.
The smell of blood is astounding, like a river surging, deviating from the mountain road, breaking through the thick fog, and leading to the other side.
At the end of the bloody smell, there is also a temple palace, which can be vaguely seen, with the words "Blood River Hall" written on it.
After Li Yan saw it, his eyes were filled with surprise and uncertainty.
He has seen the map of famous mountains. It is older and slightly different from the previous life. Outside the Blood River Hall is Bridge of Helplessness.
There is a water channel under Bridge of Helplessness, which is called Huangquan by the people.
Having said that, there is indeed a waterway, starting from the Perfect Enlightenment Hall and leading to Bridge of Helplessness...
Li Yan Looking at that breath, I felt like I had some realization in my heart.
I'm afraid this is a shortcut. If you follow this path, you can break through the formation and take a shortcut, saving most of the journey.
Everything tonight was beyond his imagination.
It seemed that the entire world of famous mountains and gods had come to life at this moment, trapping him in some kind of formation and testing him.
This feeling is a bit like Baotong Chan Temple Xuanjing.
But it's even more mysterious and weird.
Li Yan is sure that this matter has nothing to do with Yellow Springs Organization.
But he was still confused as to who was causing trouble.
Without any hesitation, Li Yan turned around, avoided the bloody underworld shortcut, and continued along the mountain road.
Although he didn't know what was going on, his two lifetime experiences told him that pie in the sky never falls.
Sometimes, it seems that you can gain benefits by taking a shortcut, but you may suffer a greater price in the future.
Soon, the Buddhist temple was left behind.
In the thick fog on the left, a temple appeared again. It was small and even a little dilapidated, but the smell of incense was very strong.
It says Land God Temple.
Li Yan bowed slightly after seeing it.
"With your feet on the ground, your heart is in peace." The land may have the smallest responsibilities, but it is the most down-to-earth. Many villages and towns will Attendant.
Li Yan has always had a good impression of this secular god.
As for why there is Attendant on the famous mountain, the reason is also very simple. According to rumors, the first stop for the souls of the dead from all over the world to go to the underworld is Land God Temple.
Sure enough, Land God Temple did not make things difficult.
The smell of incense inside is still the same, bland and reassuring.
Passing through Land God Temple is Three Purities Hall.
Like the Perfect Enlightenment Hall just now, the Three Purities Hall also has its door closed, hidden in the thick fog, blurry and without any movement.
Li Yan Bow down respectfully and move on.
On the next journey, problems occurred again.
Less than a hundred meters away, laughter suddenly appeared in the thick fog, like countless babies playing.
This laughter has a childlike charm, which makes people can't help but let down their guard. Li Yan even looks a little dazed, and a trace of love rises in his heart, wanting to see what it is.
But at this moment, something stirred in his heart.
I suddenly woke up and suddenly found a small temple in the thick fog on my right. The door of the temple was wide open, the candlelight was dim, and there was no one on duty.
On top of the shrine, Attendant stands a statue of a woman with a kind face and a fat baby in her arms.
Under the statue of the god, there are also densely packed ceramic dolls, both male and female, each of them white and fat, resembling New Year pictures of Fuwa dolls.
Many dolls also have red ropes tied to them.
When I looked up, it turned out to be Child-Giving Hall.
This is "Tie the Doll".
Divine Land This custom exists in many places among the people.
A woman who wants to have a child comes to the Child-Giving Hall, picks up the doll she likes, and ties a red string on it. When she has a child, she can fulfill her wish and remove the red string.
In some places, the service is more attentive. For a few big bucks, you can take the doll home, and the temple will continue to make up for it. In short, it cannot be less than three hundred and sixty.
As for Child-Giving Goddess's identity, some places say she is Great Emperor of the Eastern Peak's wife, and some places say she is Guanyin.
The one in front of me should be Great Emperor of the Eastern Peak's wife.
This kind of secular god is not God Ascender, nor is Human Ghost worshiped as a god, but the people's belief is condensed and represents the good wishes of the continuation of the bloodline.
Li Yan raised his hand and smelled it, and sure enough, a scent of incense appeared on his wrist, vaguely outlined in the shape of a rope.
"Why are you joining in the fun..."
Li Yan smiled, made a secret with his left hand, and used the Yang Lei method. The arc of electricity in his right palm jumped, and with a light touch, the smell of incense was cut off.
"Hehehehaha..."
Inside the temple, the white porcelain dolls seemed to be shaking with the laughter of children.
Li Yan shook his head slightly and continued walking.
A temple appears again ahead, named Thousand Hands Hall.
Without looking, you can tell that Attendant is Guanyin Bodhisattva.
Compared with Buddha, there are more images of Guanyin, and each statue represents a different meaning.
Willow Guanyin is merciful and compassionate, dispelling illnesses; Dragon Head Guanyin surrenders evil spirits; Sutra-Holding Guanyin symbolizes wisdom; Yuanguang Guanyin guides all living beings; White-Robed Guanyin washes away sins; Lotus-Reclining Guanyin means freedom and tranquility...
Its strong incense is also top-notch for Divine Land.
And Thousand-Hand Guanyin represents all kinds of methods to save all sentient beings.
Li Yan's face became solemn and he took a step forward.
Sure enough, he fell into confusion in an instant, and scenes of past events kept echoing in front of his eyes, and he stood there unable to move.
Many things change in my mind again and again.
At that time, he ran directly to Lantian County, found a Daoist priest, and asked him to do something to get rid of Cold Altar Rampaging Soldier and temporarily relieve the threat. However, he lost the chance to awaken. Within two days, a mysterious man arrived and tortured his family to death...
He felt that Wang Dao Xuan's moral character was too low, so he passed him by, but Xuanmen looked down on him, so he took Sha LiFei to take over the job, and was wanted by the court. Commandery Commandant Office masters besieged him and killed him...
Not only is there a past, but there is also a future.
His moral practice gradually deepened, and he finally found Zhao Changsheng, but he was still manipulated by the other party's tactics, and he was tortured to death...
In order to seek strength, he began to practice <Longevity Immortal Treasury>, and soon became a generation of demons. He released Seventy-Two Demon Lords, causing chaos in the world, staining the country with blood, and going crazy to death in the thunder...
These experiences tortured him again and again.
Finally, Li Yan came to a realization.
Past mistakes and future worries are all inner demons.
He no longer thinks about things that are beyond his control. He just looks back at the past, sums up his experiences, pays attention to the present, and feels himself with all his strength.
After an unknown amount of time, all the illusions disappeared.
Li Yan was silent for a moment, slightly cupped his hands, and left quickly.
Although I fell into an illusion here and wasted a lot of time, it tempered my mind. I don't know whether it was good or bad.
The surroundings are surrounded by thick fog and it's so groggy that you can't feel the time at all. This is a characteristic of the formation illusion, but now it's simple.
Li Yan took out the pocket watch and looked at it, and was immediately shocked.
In the blink of an eye, it was already Chou Hour.
And the next test is Five Flowers Eight Tones.
The one blocking the road ahead is Ox King Hall, and Attendant is not a bull-headed horse-faced one, but an ox-god.
The people of Bashu have a deep affection for cattle, saying, "My parents gave birth to me, and cattle raised me." Every year on the first day of October, the "Ox King Meeting" is held to offer sacrifices, and the scene is extremely lively.
When we arrived outside the Ox King Hall, the smell of incense turned into a herd of cattle galloping, and the sound of "Weeding Gong and Drum" from Shu could be heard in our ears.
Li Yan was anxious in his heart, so he directly grabbed Divine Tiger Token, cast <Northern Emperor Body Protection Incantation>, Tiger's Roar sounded, and dispersed the surrounding incense...
Later, there were the Temple of Wealth and the Temple of Three Officials, Ten Kings Hall.
The Temple of Wealth enchants with its many illusions...
In the Sanguan Hall, three incense auras turned into phantoms and fought with him. Heavenly Official Blessing, Diguan forgives sins, and Shuiguan relieves misfortune. The three powers are very different, forcing him to spend another sky thunder...
When it came to the Ten Kings Hall, it was even more miserable.
According to Xuanmen legend, Yama of the Tenth Hall is under the command of North Yin Fengdu Emperor, and can also be regarded as one of his own.
But these "own people" seem to be more severe.
King Qin Guang was in charge of the book of life and death. For just a moment, his body seemed to be stripped away, and King Chu Jiang beat him into Living Earth Hell. Iron beds, steel forks, sword blades, plows... all kinds of torture were performed in turn.
Here, he seemed to have lost the power to resist. He finally got through and was thrown into Black Rope Great Hell...
In this way, Li Yan almost suffered a nervous breakdown during repeated tortures. Fortunately, Great Luo Dharma Body was there to relieve Divine Soul's trauma.
Even so, after ten palaces, his hands and feet were weak, his eyesight turned black, and he almost fell to the ground.
Of course, this also has advantages.
He practiced too fast, tortured again and again, and it seemed that all the distracting thoughts Divine Soul were peeled off, making the foundation more solid.
Of course, Li Yan would not be the least bit grateful.
His face was gloomy, he touched Five Directions Fengdu Banner in his arms, vaguely guessed something, gritted his teeth and continued to move forward.
Passing through Bridge of Helplessness and Blood River Hall, it was another round of tests. The thick blood gathered into the underworld, and there seemed to be countless Yin Soul roaring, tempting him to jump.
Behind him, the voices of people close to him kept coming.
Wang Dao Xuan, Sha LiFei, Lu San shout for help...
His grandfather cried about the torture in hell...
Li Yan turned a deaf ear and cast Northern Emperor Body Protection Incantation to speed up.
The remaining Queen Mother, Jade Emperor, and Star Lord Halls all have their doors closed, until the final Emperor's Hall.
Tianzi Palace, still Attendant North Yin Fengdu Emperor.
After Li Yan stepped in, nothing seemed out of the ordinary. He frowned slightly, greeted Three Incense Sticks respectfully, and turned around to go out.
At this moment, the sky was already a little bright.
The surrounding dense fog has also faded slightly, but the faint the Unseen makes the Looking-Home Platform in front of it look even weirder.
According to rumors, Looking-Home Platform is the starting point of reincarnation. Here, Lonely Souls and Wild Ghosts can visit his relatives in his hometown for the last time, and then enter reincarnation and have nothing to do with his previous life.
After setting foot on Looking-Home Platform, Li Yan finally couldn't help but look back.
I saw the thick fog quickly dissipating behind me, and the lay monks on the mountain rang the bells. The entire famous mountain seemed to have transformed from the underworld into the underworld again.
Finally passed!
As long as you pass Looking-Home Platform, there will be someone from Yellow Springs Organization to pick you up.
Li Yan breathed a sigh of relief, but after he turned around, he suddenly felt horrified and pulled out Severing Dust Blade with a loud cry.
I saw a vague figure appearing on Looking-Home Platform at some point, wearing Hanfu, similar to a Daoist robe, with a high bronze crown on top of his head, with his back facing him.
In the Unseen, a vicissitudes of voice echoed in my ears:
"Only my hair is tied up, and I have little moral integrity. I abandoned my family and followed my teacher, and traveled east, west, north, and south, leaving the five turbidities... On the side of the famous mountain, I can't afford to wear clothes when I'm cold, I don't have time to eat when I'm hungry, I don't dare to return when I'm thinking, I don't dare to rest when I'm tired..."
It's Yin Changsheng!
Li Yan was stunned for a moment, feeling incredible.
Yin Changsheng left several poems, and this is one of them, telling his story of practicing Daoism. Li Yan looked up the information and has already memorized it.
But as he listened, he realized something was wrong.
The first part of this poem is similar to the one recorded in <"Biographies of Divine Immortals">, but the second part is completely different. It tells the story of how it became Living Underworld Messenger.
The other party's Living Underworld Messenger was older than him. At that time, it was also called Mount Tai Yellow-Clothed Guest, and he had shady tactics.
Can pass through the Mount Tai ghost gate to travel between yin and yang.
There is no communication between Celestial Person, so that many ghost walkers will forget what they have experienced after waking up.
But Yin Changsheng has Secret Treasure. After waking up, he can still remember what he saw and heard. Based on the news he heard, he can learn advanced techniques and avoid disasters.
And finally, it tells the secrets of the Great Dharma Realm!
Li Yan's heart trembled and he couldn't help but step forward.
In the Guiguzi Buddhist Scripture Forest, he saw the name <Great Luo Dharma Realm> for the first time on the central stone tablet.
This is the biggest secret in the world.
And his Great Luo Dharma Body is probably related to it!
Unexpectedly, I heard it again here at Yin Changsheng.
However, when he wanted to hear clearly, the shadow of Yin Changsheng seemed to be disturbed by some kind of force, becoming blurry and the voice was intermittent, "Dharma Realm... Heaven... Shen Gang... Red Dust Incense..."
Poof!
Finally, the shadow of Yin Changsheng completely dissipated.
At the same time, an object rolled to the ground with a thud.
Li Yan looked down and saw two jade carvings, with Cloud and Thunder Pattern carved on them, representing the sky, and five elements carved on the bottom, representing the earth, with grooves in them.
The jade is similar to white emerald, and the carving is simple and clear. I don't know what age it is, and it is filled with a familiar smell.
This taste...
Li Yan frowned slightly, took out the hook from his arms, clicked it twice, and inlaid the two jade stones on the upper and lower ends.
Phew~
The surrounding Yin Wind wrinkled, and there seemed to be a voice sighing.
Li Yan looked behind him suspiciously.
But seeing that the entire famous mountain had returned to normal, a Daoist yawned and walked out of the hut next to the Tianzi Hall. When he saw him, he glared and said, "Stop, where did you come from, little thief?"
Li Yan ignored it, Hidden Strength erupted under his feet, as if shrinking to an inch, and suddenly disappeared from Looking-Home Platform.
The Daoist swallowed his saliva and hurriedly ran into the Emperor's Palace to burn incense and murmured to himself, praying to the Emperor for protection and to get rid of evil spirits.
On the other side, Li Yan is also very fast.
He could vaguely sense that the function of the ultimatum must have changed, but for now it was better to meet the man in black robe first, so as not to spend a whole night and be told that it was not completed.
Arriving outside the Superior Official Hall, a Daoist priest was waiting outside.
Seeing Li Yan, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he saluted, "It seems that Fellow Daoist Li has passed, and I am preparing to pick you up."
The voice was clear and clear, not from last night.
And it's a common saying, it should be Yellow Springs Organization peripheral.
"A fluke."
Li Yan slightly arched his hands, "The one last night..."
"We have already gone down the mountain at midnight."
The Daoist shook his head and said, "A powerful demon has sneaked into Fengdu City. Everyone on the docked boat at the dock has been killed. Even Bai Kui's grandfather and grandson almost suffered."
"They have gone down the mountain to deal with it. Let me wait for you here."
"Oh?"
Li Yan was a little surprised, "What kind of monster dares to come here and cause trouble?"
"I don't even know."
Li Yan couldn't find anything, so he went down the back mountain and took a detour to the riverside.
Sure enough, the grandfather and grandson's boat was not waiting.
Fortunately, there were already people who had gotten up early to go up the mountain to offer incense. Li Yan called a ferry and took him back to Fengdu Pier.
As soon as he got off the boat, he sniffed into the air and his face turned ugly.
He smelled a familiar smell,
It is the demon in the cave under Goddess Peak...
