Chapter 373: The Battle of the Underworld



outside world.

The city gods went their separate ways, and they needed to return to their respective city god temples immediately and step up their defenses.

But three of the City Gods did not go back immediately, but gathered in a small temple on the side of a rural road.

The Land God Temple is a subordinate temple of the City God, but now that the world is just beginning, many of the gods have not been occupied. Although there are some incense, if there is no enlightenment from the great supernatural powers, it can only rely on offering sacrifices to heroes.

A hero serves the country and the people.

The clay statue enshrined in this land temple is a scientist who has made outstanding contributions to the field of energy. It was erected in the past year and has a lot of popularity.

There are people coming here all the time to offer sacrifices and burn incense. Perhaps in a few years a land god will appear.

This is also a change in the government. The old people have lost their voice and they can no longer control the position of the city god through the power of the government. Now the incense burning in various places has been liberalized, returning to the normal state of the virtuous occupying the position.

Because one cannot be a god without virtue, leaving the throne vacant will only cause China to suffer huge losses.

The incense god has a positive guiding significance for modern society. There is a god above your head, and doing good deeds throughout your life can make you a god.

The three city gods had a secret conversation with the help of the incense. The leader was Duke Weiling of Qingyang Su Guang, followed by two city gods who were only slightly slower to wake up than him, namely Duke Weihai Shi Huawu, and Duke Yuanxin Chen Yuyuan.

Both of them have good backgrounds. The former was originally a great general who was feared by the world, and the latter was a rare female city god. In the ancient times, men were superior to women, and it was not easy to be worshipped.

Chen Yuyuan asked, "Why did Duke Wei Ling come to us privately? Now is a sensitive period. Aren't you afraid of being questioned for doing this?"

There was a hint of vigilance in his words. Although Wei Hai Gong Shi Huawu did not say anything, he also revealed a vigilant look.

The immortal's death is related to the incense of ghosts and gods, so they should not meet in private now. If the other party has some hints in his words, they will tell the immortal immediately.

This is also a great achievement.

This place is only 200 kilometers away from the immortal’s residence.

“What I have said and done should be in accordance with the laws of immortals.” Su Guang held the decree in his hand and raised his hand slightly towards the sky.

If you speak in accordance with the Dharma, you don't have to worry about anything fishy.

The two of them understood in their hearts that, let alone powerful seniors like immortals, even if they used the power of the underworld's decree, they would be able to sense it faintly.

"The reason I invited you two here is very simple. I hope you can help me enthrone the City God. It is difficult for me to complete it quickly by myself, so I need the help of my two colleagues."

This made Chen Yuyuan and Shi Huawu stunned for a moment. He could obviously accomplish this task by himself and take all the credit.

Why ask them to share the cake?

Complete the task quickly and accurately, and implement the will of the immortal. At the same time, it is also to win them over, so as not to become the target of public criticism.

They were not stupid people, and they quickly guessed the reason. The former was the most important. If things went wrong, not to mention the credit, maybe even the position of God would be in jeopardy.

The two of them thought about it for a moment, then nodded in agreement. There was no reason not to take the free benefits, and it was necessary to associate with outstanding people.

The so-called exchanges are favors, and owing favors is also a kind of exchanges.

The three of them divided the scope of the enthronement, and those who needed to be enthroned were the larger City God positions, that is, the City God Temples in major cities.

There are a total of 126 in Shenzhou. Su Guang is responsible for the entire southern region of Shenzhou, which is also the coastal area with a relatively large population. The rest is left to the two of them.

Su Guang took the lion's share, and the other two had no objection to this.

"The two colleagues say goodbye."

"Goodbye."

Three days later, Qingzhou, City God Temple.

The incense is dim and people come and go.

Since ancient times, the relationship between the City God and humans has not been that of a high god and humans, but more like that of a parent and humans.

Since Chaofan was made public, and with the help of the government, the status of the City God has risen rapidly, and everyone believes that the City God is real. The incense of the City God Temples across China has increased by more than a hundred times, and tens of thousands of pilgrims come every day.

The huge and prosperous passenger flow has indirectly driven more than a dozen related industries, created hundreds of thousands of jobs, and given rise to a market worth hundreds of billions of yuan.

People passing by the City God Temple want to come and worship, and people of all ages have different needs. Some pray for marriage, some pray for safety, some pray for academic success, and even some pray for illness to get rid of bad luck. Generally, the temple keeper advises them to go to the hospital first.

Anyway, people just pray to God no matter what happens, which brings China's simple pragmatism to the extreme.

Because of this principle of believing in spirits, the city gods work hard for performance, and basically bless anything as long as it does not violate the rules of the underworld, such as finding children, fugitives, and even cats and dogs.

These are incidental, usually when the ghosts patrol and help find them. Their main responsibility is to maintain the balance between yin and yang and to detain the souls that are still in the world of the living. Usually they are little ghosts and zombies who don't realize they are dead, as well as some more difficult evil spirits.

There are two gates in the City God Temple: the Shengmen for people to enter, and the Yimen for gods to enter.

Behind the ceremonial gate is a unique incense cave under the Yinsi Judicial Rules. Only the Yin gods affiliated with the Yinsi can enter. There are three divisions behind the gate: the Yin and Yang Division, the Quick Report Division, and the Supervision Division.

Su Guang sat in the Yin-Yang Department and took out a list filled with the City God Temples of major cities. He outlined the ones that had been canonized.

There are ten City Gods in three days. Currently, three are working and seven are receiving training from other City Gods.

Conferring a title is not as simple as just enlightenment, it also requires the corresponding configuration of Yin officials, such as Yin soldiers, civil and military judges, night-wandering gods and day-wandering gods.
