I came to this world to open the way

Chapter 18 Welcome to the Land

It was early spring, the weather was getting warmer, and the villagers who stayed at home for the winter were also busy. This was a good time for Chen Yao to spread his faith.

Every household is busy plowing and farming, sowing the "good seeds" stored in the barn, while Chen Yao is working tirelessly on the sidelines to perform fertility techniques.

In fact, he was losing money by performing the fertility technique on such a large scale, and there were not so many believers praying for fertility, because not many people would believe that a god still has the ability of fertility before it comes to fruition.

Even if Miaozhu Liu took his son to preach, there was still little gain. Most of the villagers still prayed to the sky and the earth before opening the fields, wasting a huge amount of incense and vows in vain.

In view of this, Chen Yao decided to invest in the first wave at any cost. He wanted to increase the yield per mu during the summer harvest and completely destroy the reputation of the land god.

It is obviously not enough to rely on the supernatural powers of sending a son to suppress the soul, and the spread of belief is not direct enough.

Since ancient times, food is the most important thing for the people. If the god of land can solve the most concerned issue of the common people, why worry about having no believers, why worry about not having enough incense and vows.

But there is still some time before the summer harvest, and Chen Yao can't just wait for that outbreak, and slowly accumulate can add up.

Now he still has the guardian magic power in his hand, as long as there are believers who pray for safety, he will usually bestow a guardian spell.

Protecting ordinary people does not consume a lot of energy. Basically, everyone can save the incense and vow power of a guardian technique after praying for a few days. Gradually, the reputation that the land god can keep the safety has spread.

In Dongshan Village, every villager who goes out to do errands, cut wood and hunt in the mountains will pray at the small earth temple at the head of the village.

Yes, in addition to the small earth temple at the southern intersection of the village, a small earth temple was also built by enthusiastic villagers at the other three intersections.

The essence of the guardian technique is to temporarily increase a person's luck to make him a little luckier. The more ordinary the person's fate, the better the effect of the guardian technique.

Because if your natal life exceeds that of ordinary people, Chen Yao will consume a lot of magic again, and the incense and vows saved in the account book may not be enough.

With the blessing of the guardian technique, the villagers of Dongshan Village went up the mountain without incident for a long time, but the hunters and villagers in other villages close to Mengyang Mountain suffered a lot of casualties.

I heard from them that there are dirty things infesting the mountains, and there are vicious tigers that are taller than humans and cannibals, and they specifically attack the villagers who go up the mountain to hunt and cut firewood.

In March of the fourth year of Zhiping, in Funing Village not far from Dongshan Village, a group of hopeful people elected by the villagers entered the small courtyard of the village chief's house.

"Everyone, don't be so aggressive, sit down first, let's discuss things together." The village chief looked at the excited villagers and invited them to sit down first.

The leader of the villagers, an old man, dressed in sackcloth, saw the village head's gesture, and comforted everyone first: "Sit, everyone sit, I think the village head already knows our appeal."

After everyone sat down, the village head nodded, stroked his beard and sat in the first place, saying, "Funing Village is not peaceful at all now, I know that everyone wants to ask the land god to be the official sacrifice?"

The old man in sackcloth looked around, and everyone nodded. They had communicated in private before.

"Village chief, it's rare for the dolls in the village to grow up so big and die like this. It hurts my heart to see them."

"That's right, village chief, we in Mengyang Township rely on mountains and fields to eat, how can we live if we have to risk our lives to go up the mountains now!"

"Da Zhuang is still in a coma. I think he has been possessed by some dirty things." You speak to each other, and everyone pours bitterness to the village chief, telling the difficulties during this period.

The village head of Funing Village had a heavy expression on his face. As the village head, how could he not know about this period of time, but the transformation of the village temple into a land temple is really important.

"Ahem, everyone be quiet, the village chief, I know what you are worried about. I sent someone to Dongshan to communicate, as long as you welcome the land god into the main village shrine, the original ancestral tablet can be placed in the side room. "The old man in sackcloth saw the difficulty of the village chief and explained.

The village head nodded and continued: "In this way, it is not considered as abolishing the sacrifice of the ancestors. If there is less, it will be less."

"The village chief, are you going to stop me?" Hearing this, someone asked cautiously.

"What am I stopping? The baby on the mountain in the village was injured and died. I don't feel bad? I am more anxious and guilty than you. I am not doing a good job as the village chief." Hearing this, the village chief didn't know where he was touched. , Blowing his beard and staring for a moment, another group of old tears flowed down.

The old man in sackcloth is the village elder in the village. He understands the difficulty of the village head. At this time, he immediately glanced at the person who spoke before, and said: "The village head is the head of our village. Of course, he has more things to consider than you. The court, the ancestors He has to consider all hidden worries in other villages..."

"Let's not talk about that, since the imperial court doesn't care about it, and the ancestors can be preserved, I decided to build the 'golden body' and go to Dongshan to welcome back the land god!" The village chief interrupted the old man in sackcloth, and said firmly.

Five days later, in the early morning, under the watchful eyes of the whole village, the village head led a group of young men to Dongshan Village, carrying incense burners and beating gongs and drums.

Dongshan Village had also received the news a long time ago, and they were greeted at the entrance of the village under the leadership of Liu Qing and Miaozhu Liu, and the etiquette was considered comprehensive.

Chen Yao didn't care about the little divine power consumed by traveling during the day. He hid aside and nodded with satisfaction. The village chief Liu Qing was considered qualified.

When the village head was first elected, Chen Yao also nodded his head because Liu Qing was Liu's cousin and had studied. Now it seems that he is indeed capable.

When a group of people from Funing Village passed through the village, the roadside was crowded with onlookers. Their eyes were full of pride and pride, because the land god was the local god of their village.

"The land god will go to their village in the future, and it's a bit uncomfortable." A young guy said.

He has been going to the mountains to cut firewood and hunt all year round, and he has received a lot of favor from the God of the Land. It is not bad to say this, and many villagers also have complicated hearts.

Next to him was his father, who was also an old hunter, but he had much more knowledge than his son. He patted the young boy on the head and said, "You boy, the stronger the land god, the better for us. Funing village welcomes the land to explain the land God is the true God, so everyone is willing to believe in it!"

The earth temple in the center of the village is full of incense and smoke.

Under the leadership of Miaozhu Liu, the head of Funing Village held the small statue of the land god produced in Dongshan Village and circled the main statue of the Earth Temple twelve times, praying for the God of the Land to protect them every day of the year in Funing Village. a month.

Then let the little statue of the earth be influenced by the incense smoke in the temple, and finally hold a few handfuls of incense ash from the incense temple and pour them into the incense burner that he brought.

Chen Yao was dazzled by the series of operations, but he didn't have such a sense of ritual, and he didn't explain much.

It's just that Chen Yao didn't stop him. The ceremony has the benefits of a ceremony, which can increase the majesty and mystery of the gods to a certain extent.

When we returned to Funing Village, it was already noon, and the group was tired and hungry, and their faces were full of excitement.

They lived up to everyone's expectations and successfully invited the land god back. The small statue of the land god has been placed in the small temple at the entrance of the village.

And almost all the villagers of Funing Village gathered in the village temple, looking eagerly at Liu Gou'er next to the divine case, who will start the first sacrifice.

"Light incense, kneel! The land is blessed!" Liu Gou'er looked very solemn today, standing under the newly built tall statue of the land god, and said loudly.

As the smoke from the first stick of incense rose, the official uniforms depicted on the statue of the land god became more majestic and magnificent, and an invisible pressure suddenly enveloped all the villagers.

But they showed joy and smiles, because they knew that the land god would protect them from now on.
