"A time traveler? A stranger?"
The voice in his mind sounded again, and Kong Hanan's heart skipped a beat.
Regardless of his superficial understanding in his previous life or the memories of this life, Kong Hanan roughly knew that the Great Emperor Tianqi Rensheng of Mount Tai, the Eastern Peak, was ranked below the Three Pure Ones and the Four Emperors in Taoism, and was one of the top Taoist gods.
But he never imagined that this god was so terrifying that he could see through just a thought in his mind.
In fact, it was not as exaggerated as Kong Hanan imagined. The emperor himself did not have the time to take care of him, and he was just a wisp of spirit in the Dongyue Temple in Helue Town. He used the life-buying ghost money as a medium to enter Kong Hanan's dream through the mark of the life-seeking ghost, so that he could see through Kong Hanan's thoughts.
Human beings are the spirits of heaven and earth, with three souls and seven spirits. The three souls of heaven, earth and man form a complete closed loop. Unless violent means are used, even if the emperor himself comes, he cannot easily check Kong Hanan's thoughts and memories.
Dongyue Temple accepts offerings year-round. The Great Emperor always leaves a wisp of his divine power on the statues in the temple to suppress them, preventing demons and villains from invading. When Kong Hanan entered the Dongyue Temple with the ghost money, the statue's avatar sensed it and deliberately suppressed its divine power, not exterminating the evil spirits. It then investigated Kong Hanan, mainly because...
In all these years of serving God, He has never seen anyone throw paper money into the donation box.
Although the Emperor of Dongyue was a casual god, he was happy to let Kong Hanan think more about it. Things like time travel can be understood in a matter of minutes with just a few calculations. He just wanted to use Kong Hanan to understand another world.
Kong Hanan had no idea about this and was really scared.
This world was limited by its backwardness and the speed of knowledge dissemination, so there weren't many myths about the Emperor Dongyue in his inherited memories. However, as an authentic reader of Qidian Chinese Network in his previous life, he had seen quite a bit.
Although Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism often have conflicting beliefs, their explanations of the underworld are surprisingly harmonious. Buddhism has the underworld system of reincarnation, while Taoism has the King of Fengdu and a group of ghosts and immortals.
As for the Confucian faction? Aren't the Eighteen Levels of Hell the embodiment of Confucianism?
As we all know, behind the underworld is Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, and behind the King of Fengdu is the King of Mount Tai.
It’s terrifying to think about it. Ksitigarbha’s mount, Di Ting, can even hear people’s thoughts. For these great gods, checking people’s thoughts is a piece of cake.
I was careless! Why did I run to the temple? This wave was my DF double combo that cost me the tower!
The more Kong Hanan thought about it, the more frightened he became, but he didn't know that as soon as he thought about it, the eyes of Emperor Dongyue's clone lit up.
The Taishan God became the Emperor of Dongyue, which originated from the earliest folk worship.
The Great Emperor was originally a mountain god. His earliest duty was just to guard an area. He never thought of holding any power. This is why he, a god born from heaven and earth, is ranked below the Four Emperors. The duties of the gods such as noble and humble, life and death, were given by people's beliefs. Who says Mount Tai is so high?
Although the worship of believers has given him supreme status and honor, the Great Qi Kingdom in this world has not yet been influenced by Buddhism, so the affairs of the underworld are still managed by the Emperor Dongyue alone.
How tiring!
Finding someone to represent the underworld seems like a good option.
The myths and legends from other worlds that Kong Hanan had fantasized about gave Emperor Dongyue another idea.
At the moment, Kong Hanan can be included in the list of candidates. After all, these ideas were learned from him. It might be feasible to let him take charge of the construction of the underworld.
He didn't care about the identity of the time traveler. In his eyes, Kong Hanan was just an ant.
Give him a test.
He spoke, interrupting Kong Hanan's fantasies: "I basically understand your situation. Instead of guessing blindly, it's better to look at the current situation. That evil spirit is about to take over."
Kong Hanan came to his senses and saw that the evil ghost had come right in front of him. It had a cracked face covered with deep and shallow blood-red grooves. Kong Hanan couldn't help but feel horrified.
The evil ghost's body shape was seen changing slowly, aiming at the facial features and limbs. There was a trace of liquid that looked like saliva oozing out of the corners of its cracked mouth, which was extremely greasy and disgusting.
Is this a wall-dong? No, lying on the bed, is this a bed-dong?
Kong Hanan was shocked again.
The scene that Kong Hanan imagined amused the emperor so much that he was distracted. He sneered, and this sound woke Kong Hanan up.
"Emperor, save me~!!"
"But you are a time traveler, not belonging to the Three Realms and Five Elements. Such an existence gives me a headache."
The emperor's voice made Kong Hanan happy. In his previous life, he had been in society and suffered beatings and hardships. How could he not know that the emperor meant something else?
"I will obey the Emperor's orders in everything."
"I will take the Heavenly Soul from among your three souls and brand it in Heaven. From now on, you will be subject to the Three Realms and Five Elements, and be governed by fate. Are you willing?"
Kong Hanan was stunned when he heard this.
He had some knowledge of ancient mythology due to his previous hobbies.
He knew that the three souls were the souls of heaven, earth and man.
After a person dies, his soul returns to the Lord God and is temporarily detained in the Heavenly Prison.
If this person does good deeds and works reliably, his soul will be strengthened in the next reincarnation. For example, some people are particularly smart, and some are particularly beautiful.
The earth soul wanders among the tablets in the cemetery, accepting the grief of future generations.
The earth soul is more like a monitor, checking whether the descendants are reliable, whether they are filial to themselves, whether they violate their family precepts, etc. When people say that their ancestors have spirits, they are referring to the earth soul.
When a person's soul enters the underworld, it knows the law of cause and effect. The human soul carries more of a person's memories and spiritual energy.
After entering reincarnation and being reborn as a human being, as the body grows, the heavenly soul and earthly soul return, the three souls become one, and the person regains consciousness and memory.
