There is no ink mark in watching the starry sky.
"Let's go, don't waste time, take me to the nearest Tudigong Temple."
The man holding the sign nodded quickly, not daring to delay, and took him to the parking lot, while sending a message to the 749 General Administration.
[We have received a call from the ten masters of the Starry Sky.]
…
Time flies.
Qin Ye arrived in Beijing by plane, it was already evening.
at this time.
It was 8 o'clock in the evening.
Qin Ye checked in at the hotel and walked out.
soon.
A Didi car drove up, Qin Ye looked at the license plate and got in.
The driver said politely.
"Hello, is the last number 9701?"
"yes."
The driver was very talkative. Seeing Qin Ye's response, he first glanced at the five-star hotel where Qin Ye came from, stepped on the accelerator, and took the initiative to chat.
"Brother, are you here to travel to our capital? Come to the south."
"Master, can you tell that? Yes, I came here for a stroll and to see if I can meet up with some old friends."
"Well, how can you not see that? I've been driving a taxi for over 10 years, I've seen all sorts of people."
The driver spoke in authentic local dialect and talked eloquently.
"Generally speaking, when people come from the south, especially from Fujian and Guangdong, they don't go to the Forbidden City or the Great Wall in Beijing. Instead, they go to temples like the God of Wealth Temple to worship first."
Having said that, he glanced at the destination on his phone's navigation.
"But it's rare to visit the Earth God Temple first when visiting a temple in the capital. This is the first time I've seen it today."
"Yeah."
Qin Ye smiled.
"They are gods and goddesses, so it's safe to pay them a visit."
"Haha, I can't tell you're that young, but you have such traditional ideas."
The driver said, speaking bluntly.
"Young man, if you believe in these things, I think you can change temples. You want to go to this temple, but not many people are worshipping there lately."
"Oh? Why?"
Qin Ye looked over.
"Is there any melon here?"
"No, there aren't any melons. But not long ago, someone was praying at the Earth God Temple, and the Earth Goddess suddenly burst open. If you believe in that, you know how unlucky it is."
"Cracked? Are you talking about the head of the God of Land? Is there a crack between the eyebrows?" Qin Ye raised his eyebrows.
This time it was the driver's turn to raise an eyebrow.
He looked surprised.
"Hey, little brother, how did you know that? That's right, the statue of the Earth God and his wife cracked in the head, right between the eyebrows."
Qin Ye said casually.
"I believe in these things. When you said it was unlucky, I thought of these things."
"Oh, you're quite a believer. I thought you were just like other young people, superstitious about making a lot of money and believing in old traditions. It seems not the case. You even know this? That's not right."
The driver suddenly realized it and said in surprise.
"So, is it true that the Earth God Temple is unlucky? It's unlucky for the Earth God and his wife to have a crack between their eyebrows."
He doesn't believe any of this.
For this reason, I don’t know these contents of the old tradition.
The young man next to him guessed what was going on at once, which made him realize that there really was a saying in the old tradition that the statue of the God of Land had a crack between its eyebrows. He had thought it was just a rumor spread by the neighbors to scare people.
"There's a saying that cracked statues of the Earth God are unlucky, especially if they have a crack between their eyebrows. In fact, any statue of a deity with a crack between its eyebrows is unlucky."
Qin Ye said.
But in my heart I added slowly.
...I hope this statue is not the main statue of the God of Land.
He didn't say much to the driver, so the mention of a split between the eyebrows was just because it was considered unlucky according to old tradition.
There is another saying - if a statue of a god has a crack between its eyebrows, the god will be destroyed.
