This Southern Red Plague Ghost, as mentioned before, is called the Southern Red Plague Yaksha Sea Ghost.
There used to be a neighbor on Li Dan Road whose surname was Chen. Because of this, the plague god and ghost escaped Zhang Lie's pursuit, turned into a woman, and threw herself into the neighbor's house. As a result, she died. (Chapter 31)
Even a plague that occurred behind the capital was related to this ghost.
There has been no trace of this ghost, but I didn¡¯t expect that she had been hiding and hibernating until now, and then came out to take advantage of severe drought, locust plague, and epidemic.
This ghost is closely related to Buddhism, and it may even be released by Buddhism.
"Grandma, don't you know that Li Tang is of Laojun's bloodline? Last year, Laojun showed his holiness and transformed into Emperor Xuanyuan. His purple energy spread for three thousand miles?"
"What are you doing to me?" The grandma showed her old yellow teeth.
"But all the emperors in the past dynasties were the Five Emperors, and there was never any order from the old king. This is out of bounds." The girl in red squeezed her grandma's shoulders.
"Lao Jun is an immortal."
"The emperor is a divine being."
¡°The Tao in it is enough to kill insignificant little characters like you and me hundreds of times.¡±
"What do you want to say?" The grandma said with a cold look.
"Chi You has reached an agreement with the Rakshasa, the Demon Goddess of the Western Regions. The Nu family is here to invite grandma to join us this time."
¡°If grandma wants to survive, it¡¯s best to make plans early.¡±
"Are you teaching me how to do things?" I saw the grandma pulling directly, lifting the red-clothed plague god and ghost, and pushing him to the ground.
?Then the true nature of the locust was revealed: "Your grandma and I are the God of Destiny, why do we associate with you monsters?"
Since Dong Zhongshu of the Han Dynasty proposed the "reception between heaven and man" and developed mythological systems such as the Five Emperors of Taiwei, orthodox theocracy has been in the hands of Confucianism.
The right to worship heaven and earth is in the hands of Confucianism, and the right to interpret it is naturally the same.
Dong Zhongshu said: "Those things in the heaven and earth that change unexpectedly are called differences, and those that are small are called disasters. Disasters always come first, and changes follow. Disasters are the punishment of heaven, and changes are the power of heaven." That is, to condemn someone without knowing it is to fear someone with authority.¡±
¡°The root cause of all disasters and disasters is the failure of the country. The failure of the country is the beginning of the disaster, and the disaster comes from the sky to warn it; it warns it, but does not know how to change it; it sees the strange thing and is frightened; it is frightened, but it does not know how to fear it. I'm afraid, it will lead to disaster."
This theory attributes many "disasters" to the fact that God is exercising its "power" to defeat the emperor on earth.
Among them, droughts are like this, locust plagues are like this, and floods are like this.
It makes people fear God and fear the emperor.
The theory of disasters induced by heaven and man not only allowed the imperial power to operate under certain moral constraints, but also provided a strong theoretical basis for Confucian scholars to participate in politics.
For example, if there is a locust plague this year, you can accuse Li Shimin of being unethical and unkind.
Many people even rose up because of this. The emperor had no virtue, and killing him was just to do justice for heaven.
Therefore, the Locust God has a "mandate of destiny".
It is a "god of disaster" that appears in line with the Confucian theory of "response between heaven and man" and is here to warn the emperor.
"Locust" is the same as "emperor". While people worship the Supreme Emperor, they will also regard locusts as messengers of the Emperor and worship them as gods.
And this old locust is indeed the messenger of the Emperor of Heaven.
"Shangshu Weizi Pian" also believes that locust plagues are "poisons from heaven bringing disasters and famines", and these are punishments from the Emperor of Heaven. Therefore, people believe that the locusts not only cannot be destroyed, but also beg the gods to avoid punishment.
This female locust had received enlightenment before and knew that Li Tang's destiny was cut off. It would take three years of severe drought, three years of severe frost, and three years of locust plague. But if you go with the flow, you will get the right result. There is no need to join them for any so-called refuge. The big demon.
Even the history of the Ming Dynasty records a complete sacrificial system from the central to the local level. During the sacrifice process, officials drafted prayers and led the people to worship the locust god.
The mother locust thinks that she has a bright future, and she can look forward to a good life.
The Red Plague Ghost is not angry either. She used to think that she had a bright future, but how can people who do dirty work end well?
He just smiled and exited the room, holding a red lantern, and slowly disappeared into the fields where the locusts were flying.
There was only one fairy grass in the yard of the small house, shouting silently, hoping to get help and escape the fate of being eaten.
On the other side, Liu Changsheng and others quickly arrived at the place where the horses were raised. The officials here had fled to other places, and the horse farm was already bare.
theAll were eaten clean by locusts.
Locusts are omnivorous. When the number increases, ducks and birds will not work.
A large number of densely packed locusts, as big as a finger, were flying around.
There were many corpses on the ground covered with locusts. These were people or animals who died due to the plague. There should have been flies and maggots, but they couldn't fight the locusts.
Locusts also eat meat, but they don¡¯t have predatory mouthparts. Living people eat their hair and clothes at most. After all, ancient clothes were made of natural plant fibers.
But the locusts will not let go of dead bodies, rotting corpses.
Several people relied on the green plowing bird to return to its original shape, and relied on the pressure of higher birds to barely save their hair.
Many bones that have been eaten clean by locusts are scattered on the roadside.
Liu Changsheng sighed.
"These locusts also have plague on their bodies, but the plague has no effect on them. But when they fly to places where there is no plague, they will spread the plague." Yaohua's double pupils showed the power of the plague.
"I'll lead her out!" Qing Gengniao said.
Liu Changsheng nodded: "Be careful."
Yaohua took out seven small flags: "This is the Star Flag. It can channel the power of Beidou to conquer the demon. We can use this formation to trap the demon later."
"We don't understand formations!" Qi Yunying said confidently: "We only have one sword."
Yaohua thought about it: "Then let Rong Xi form the formation. You know the art of the Five Elements, and I will assist you in setting up the Five Elements Formation to attract the five-star divine power of the sky."
"Okay." Lin Jiu took the flag readily.
Ruiming also nodded: "The demon plague is very serious. My sect walks the world with medicine. I have a few Nine Saints Dispersing Plague Pills. If you take them, you can prevent yourself from being plagued by the plague."
None of the others refused and took the pills, feeling a woody smell radiating from the inside out.
This aroma resisted the plague and the stench of rotting corpses.
Liu Changsheng gave other people's weapons with "monster-killing talismans" painted on them. No matter who injured the monster, it could prevent it from healing itself and worsen the injury.
????????? Mainly because they are "noble students of the immortal way". As a teacher, the Monkey King sent them down the mountain and taught them a lot of experience.
"It's been half a year since these young people came down from the mountain at the latest. They should understand and learn from the suffering in the world and the evil people's hearts.
What¡¯s more, it¡¯s a demon, and it¡¯s the kind that can be cleared in a team of eight, so you have to be even more careful.
The elixirs and magical instruments must be prepared. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
