Chapter 11 Funeral on the Road
(Thanks to Xinyuan Yima Book Friend for the reward...)
At least Liu Shengzhi didn't feel like going up the mountain at all. He felt like he was just going up a high slope. The gentle loess plateau was covered with farmland and peony gardens...
This not-so-large mountain has such a great reputation. It is all because Beimang Mountain has been a cemetery for Luoyang people since the Eastern Han Dynasty.
At that time, the Five Doks of Rice Dao established twenty-four divine rulers in several species, of which twenty-three divine rulers were all in the southwest Shu. The only enclave was the Beimian divine ruler.
Liu Shengzhi has the Beimzhidu Gong Seal in his hand. If he wants to completely unravel the secret of this divine seal, it may have a great relationship with this place.
Not to mention, among the seventy-two blessed lands in the world, there is Beimang Mountain.
Tang Cheng followed with the compass for a while and then put away the compass in depression.
Liu Shengzhi asked: "How is it?"
"I can still see the general Feng Shui, but it is not so easy to find a dragon and point acupoint? Even on Yanzi Mountain, I also discovered it by chance for many days."
Liu Shengzhi nodded: "Then you just say what you saw?"
"Mengshan belongs to the remnant of the Gushan Mountains, which is higher than the Yellow River. The water surface of the Luo River is more than 100 meters. The terrain is open and there is Luo River in the south. It is located at the intersection of the Yellow River and Luo River. The water mouth is naturally the best choice, and the Feng Shui in the entire mausoleum area is good.
Moreover, in the soil layer five to fifteen meters below the surface, the water seepage rate is low, the bonding is good, the soil is tight and hard, and it is most suitable for tombs. It happens to be on the bank of Luoyang, the ancient capital, no wonder that Luoyang people have been the first to burial since ancient times."
Tang Cheng explained: "But there are neither mountains nor high mountains here. It is simply a sand erosion of the Yellow River. The hills that stretch more than 300 miles formed by the Yellow River diverting... I want to find dragons and point acupoints, but my ability is still a little short of my ability..."
Liu Shengzhi nodded, but he was not disappointed. He brought Tang Chenglai with the idea of giving it a try. There was nothing too disappointed.
According to legend, Zhang Daoling created the Five Doks of Rice Dao and the twenty-four divine rulers under his command. Only this Beimian ruler is not Shu, but also one of the blessings of the cave heavens and legends of Taoism. It is much more famous than the Tibetan Dragon Cave Heaven.
At that time, Luoyang was also the imperial capital of the Eastern Han Dynasty. At that time, the Northern Shenzhi was even more unaware of what it looked like.
Liu Shengzhi sighed slightly. He asked Tang Cheng to check Feng Shui just now. He was not idle either. He also used the qi-looking technique and looked around. He also did not see too many clues.
In the Qi-seeing technique, Beimang lies on the bank of the Yellow River, like a dragon, filled with a faint earthly atmosphere. But when you walk into it, you feel ordinary and you can't see anything.
After pondering for a while, Liu Shengzhi said, "Let's take a look!"
The two rented an off-road vehicle and drove in the wilderness at night.
Before he knew it, Liu Shengzhi frowned. But in his eyes, a place was filled with black air.
"Driving the car over there and check it out!" Liu Shengzhi ordered.
Soon they boarded a country road, and the black air seemed to be close to them. However, when they arrived, they were still more than ten miles away.
Before I got closer, I found that it was a village. I was playing and joking, but it seemed to be a funeral.
In a moment, there were even roaring trumpets and various pop songs. I heard some singers singing perfunctorily on it.
Liu Shengzhi was not surprised. He worked in the countryside. Whether it was a wedding or a wedding, he wanted to have fun. Even such a wedding or a wedding, he often invited a straw troupe for a few days.
"Go in and take a look!" Liu Shengzhi pondered for a moment and suddenly said.
"Oh!" Although Tang Cheng didn't know why Liu Shengzhi had a whim, he had already been convinced by Liu Shengzhi's way of dealing with the enemy during the day.
Although he was old and had no choice but to struggle, he just wanted to go back to bed early. But since Liu Shengzhi said that, he naturally did not dare to raise objections.
Today, even these rural areas have built small foreign buildings of two or three floors. Before entering the village, I was shocked by the huge sound.
Seeing the banquet was placed all the way to the entrance of the village and looking at it casually, I was afraid there were almost hundreds of tables, which was quite scary.
Seeing Liu Shengzhi and his two people walking in, someone else was drunk and pulled the two of them to sit down and drink, which made them laugh and cry.
However, Liu Shengzhi naturally did not come to drink. He walked all the way to the monastery, and there were not many people nearby. Although the lights were bright, there were not even those who were filial.
Either they went to drink or went to the stage to watch the fun.
I can only see a glass coffin under the big black and white photo in the center of the monastery.
Tang Cheng took a look at the black and white photo. There was an old lady with kind eyebrows on it. However, she didn't know what to do, but she always felt a gloomy and a chill rose from the bottom of her heart.
"Let's go and go over and put in an incense stick." Liu Shengzhi said.
When I walked forward first, I lit the incense candle, and after lit a stick of incense, I stood quietly in front of the coffin and watched.
Just after taking a look, Tang Cheng's heart skipped a beat, and he felt a bad feeling. But when he saw Liu Shengzhi watching from the side, he felt relieved.
This kind of coffin is probably rented in a funeral home and can be used to create air conditioning. The coffin lid is even more transparent, which makes it easier for people to admire the appearance of the deceased.
At first glance, the old lady's wrinkled old face was actually in that pale, with a strange iron-green color. Her eyes were even wide open!
This seemed to be a sign of sudden death, and Tang Cheng felt cold in his heart. This means that the deceased died with hatred before his death and could not dissipate in one breath, and it is likely that he would become a resentful ghost.
However, this kind of thing is naturally a huge trouble for him, Tang Cheng. But for Liu Shengzhi, there should be nothing, right?
"Oh, which family are you from? Why haven't I seen it before?" Someone finally came over behind him and found something was wrong with the two of them.
Tang Chengru smiled and said, "We are passing by. Seeing the white wedding here, we will come and have an incense stick!"
"Oh..." The middle-aged woman behind her looked quite shrewd and capable, but she was not so inhumane and cursed.
It’s a stranger. Since they come to burn incense to the deceased, they have to ask someone to sit down and have a glass of wine!
At this moment, the middle-aged woman even politely invited two of them to the table outside.
Liu Shengzhi suddenly spoke and said coldly: "You haven't invited a few monks and Taoists to come and go for a sermon to go and pass the funeral?"
This middle-aged woman was a little stupid. She still maintained such customs in the south, but in rural areas in the north, there was no such rule at all.
