On the list?
As soon as this familiar term came out, Yang Ming instantly guessed the usage of the True Spirit Position Chart.
Among the three thousand people in the world, there are celebrities on the list.
This sentence is well-known. When Yang Ming and other old people were children, there were no televisions or mobile phones. In the Taoist temple, apart from the boring Taoist scriptures, there were only Journey to the West and Investiture of the Gods to kill time.
"It's called the Ghost and God Scroll, but it's actually the Conferred God List. Even such a rare item has been prepared. It seems that the ancestors have been planning to build the underworld for a long time. And when it comes to you, I'm afraid it's inevitable."
Yang Ming was deeply moved that at his age, he could still participate in such a big event.
Seeing that his uncle was lost in his memories, Hu Xiuwu repeated it again, inviting Yang Ming sincerely: "Uncle, how about it, do you want to be on the list? You can choose from the five emperors."
Under the Emperor of Beiyin Fengdu, the Five Ghost Emperors have the highest status and are the most transcendent. These Five Ghost Emperors are even qualified to form their own small teams and enfeoff their own subordinate gods, just like the princes in the Zhou Dynasty.
"No, I'm not that kind of person. Shangqing's affairs are not busy, I can still manage them, but the construction of the underworld is definitely a big deal, I'm not the one who can do it."
However, Yang Ming thought about it and decided to refuse. Accepting the position of Ghost Emperor not only meant having extremely high power, but also meant greater responsibilities and obligations.
The Ghost Emperor’s term of office is three thousand years, and 007’s term of office is three thousand years, and he is not allowed to take leave.
Otherwise, why did no one want to be on the list back then? Even the ancients did not like to work, and the discipline in the workplace was extremely strict.
Wouldn’t it be nice to be a rich and free immortal?
Although there were occasionally some heroes among the otakus of Shangqing who were eager to make a move, Yang Ming was obviously not one of them at that time.
"In that case, forget it."
Hu Xiuwu nodded, and without further entanglement with Yang Ming, the two walked out of the building side by side.
Taking advantage of the fact that no one was around, while walking with Hu Xiuwu, Yang Ming asked curiously, "Xiuwu, do you have a favorite candidate? The operation of the underworld must be done impartially and without bias."
"The operation of the underworld cannot rely on human character, but also on the system and the supervision of heaven."
No matter how unrestrained a person is in his heart and without supervision from outside, it is easy for him to become lax and abuse his power.
Hu Xiuwu narrowed his eyes and said, "As for the candidates for ghosts and gods, I already have a group of candidates."
Yang Ming became interested: "Oh, who is it?"
"I can't say, I can't say, it hasn't been finalized yet." Hu Xiuwu looked towards the northeast.
Although he had some ideas and had discussed it thoroughly a long time ago, no one from that side had communicated with him in the past two years.
It is not easy to make those proud elves bow their heads and voluntarily become his subordinates.
However, this Luotian Grand Ceremony might be an opportunity.
I learned from Hu Bayi that the Wang family and the Feng family would participate this time. Deng Youfu had been abroad for many years and had not shown up for a long time. I heard that Liu Kunsheng wanted him to show his face in front of the foreigners in China.
Although Grandma Guan Shihua, the leader of the shaman lineage, disagreed, she could not defeat Liu Kunsheng.
The people from the three families are all strong men, and they will meet each other sooner or later.
Hu Xiuwu did not continue the conversation on this topic and changed it to another one: "It is getting late, Uncle Master, can I stay in Maoshan for one night?"
Yang Ming said casually: "Of course, I have asked someone to clean your room and yours. You can live in the room directly."
"I don't want to live anywhere." Hu Xiuwu rejected Yang Ming's kindness.
Yang Ming joked: "You can live anywhere you want. I am already this old. Sooner or later I will fall into the hands of the Emperor. I have to please the Emperor in advance."
Hu Xiuwu looked out at the Maoshan Terrace from the Yiyunlou Museum: "I want to live on the Shengbiao Terrace."
Shengbiaotai, like Yiyun Tower, is the fourth hall of Jiuxiao Wanfu Palace and is located in Sijiucheng, which refers to the fourth courtyard of the Siheyuan. The only difference is that one is located at the top of Maoshan Mountain, and the other is located on the west side of the palace.
Yang Ming didn't react for a moment: "There is no special room on the platform, are you going to live on the platform..."
Before he finished speaking, Yang Ming was stunned for a moment, then he was overjoyed: "Okay, I'll arrange it right away. I remember there are still a few rooms next to the table."
"I'll have someone vacate it for you right away."
Yang Ming hurried to make arrangements. Even when Hu Xiuwu invited him to be the Five Ghost Emperor, he was not so anxious.
Hu Xiuwu held Yang Ming back and said, "Don't worry, uncle. I don't need that tonight. There are too many tourists during the day, so it's not very convenient. It's better for me to do it at night. I'll bother you brothers tomorrow."
"Okay, okay, but don't be too tired. This matter is not urgent."
Yang Ming nodded. Now whatever Hu Xiuwu said was what it meant.
"I understand."
Yang Ming bowed deeply to Hu Xiuwu: "Please."
Hu Xiuwu responded: "Master uncle, you are too polite. Maoshan is also my home, and it is my responsibility to repair it."
After bidding farewell to Yang Ming, Hu Xiuwu walked calmly towards the platform. Although he was walking alone in the night, he did not feel lonely because of the cool breeze, moonlight and the sound of falling leaves.
After the excitement, Yang Ming stood in front of Yiyun Tower, watching Hu Xiuwu's back gradually go away, but he couldn't forget it for a long time, his face was full of sighs. The matter of the underworld was serious, how could he let it go in a short time.
Brother, your disciple is extraordinary. The founder appointed him as the Lord of Yin to rule the underworld.
He can still recite Shangqing, remember his roots, and has not taken the wrong path. He is a good child and has not let you down.
Shengbiaotai is located at the top of Maoshan Mountain, in the center of the entire Maoshan Taoist Temple. It is surrounded by nine peaks, like stars guarding the North Star, and occupies the Feng Shui acupoint of Maoshan.
It not only occupies the leading position of the Maoshan dragon vein, but is also the place closest to the sky in Maoshan, and is known as the top of Maoshan.
It was the place where the ancient Shangqing held memorials and petitions and performed rituals and offerings.
But more importantly, this is also the core of the formation where the Shangqing Sect sorted out the Maoshan Feng Shui.
Maoshan was not the first blessed land of Taoism from the beginning. It was the Eighth Cave Heaven. It was polished bit by bit by the ancestors of Shangqing who practiced the Seven Killing Orders of Gods and Ghosts from generation to generation since the Tang Dynasty.
It has been transformed from a beautiful place into a world-famous Taoist mountain.
But there is nothing magical about Maoshan now.
Maoshan is located in a strategic location, and Su Province is also a place of contention for military strategists. Therefore, when the war was at its most intense, in order to quell the war as soon as possible,
The previous head of Shangqing Sect made an important decision to lend Maoshan to the army as a headquarters.
But which wartime command center had not been bombed? After being bombed by modern artillery and fighter planes, only one Taoist temple on Mount Mao remained, and the place was covered with gullies.
Maoshan also suffered heavy losses. Now Yang Ming is the only true disciple left from the previous generation of Shangqing. It can be said that the whole family is full of loyal heroes.
The transcendent status of Shangqing was earned through blood and fire.
The decision to lend the Taoist scriptures to Maoshan was agreed upon by everyone in Maoshan. The Taoist scriptures had already been transferred when the head monk made the decision to lend the Taoist scriptures to Maoshan. Naturally, the people of Shangqing would not take the loss of external objects such as the temple and the forest of steles to heart.
The only pity is that Shangqing’s home, Maoshan, was destroyed by artillery fire, and the blessed land that Shangqing had cultivated over thousands of years was destroyed, and the ground veins were cut off.
Moreover, after that, no disciple of Maoshan had been able to learn the Seven Killing Orders of Gods and Ghosts. Even though a Taoist temple as magnificent and grand as before was built on Maoshan, for old Shangqing people like Yang Ming and Wu Dechang, Maoshan still did not feel like home.
Hu Xiuwu was the only disciple of Shangqing who had mastered the Seven Killing Orders of Gods and Ghosts after the war, and he was also the only one who could possibly restore the foundation of Maoshan.
However, in order to cure Hu Xiuwu, Wu Dechang decided to take him away from Maoshan. Yang Ming actually agreed to Wu Dechang's request and generously let go of the only hope of repairing his homeland.
He gave up the hope of repairing his own sect's headquarters in exchange for the possibility of making up for Hu Xiuwu's congenital deficiency. One can imagine how great this favor is.
So without fear of exposing his relationship with Maoshan again, the first thing Hu Xiuwu did after taking the Ghost and God Scroll was to rush to the memorial platform.
Hu Xiuwu walked to the center of the altar-like platform and sat down in the center of the platform. There was a divine light in his eyes. Through the mountains, rivers, and plants, the veins of Maoshan were clearly revealed towards him.
Seven Killing Orders of Gods and Ghosts·Earthly Evil Orders.
Command the earth's qi, connect the earth's veins,
Reshape Maoshan.
Chapter 308: The First Blessed Land, the Eighth Cave Heaven
In the dead of night, the only sounds in Maoshan are the rustling of leaves and the occasional clear and melodious ringing of copper bells on the eaves.
Moisturizing things silently,
The seemingly peaceful Maoshan is undergoing earth-shaking changes under the control of Hu Xiuwu.
······
"Maoshan is a Taoist mountain, known as the first blessed land and the eighth cave heaven. Not only is the scenery beautiful, but you can see that even the birds are human-like and are not afraid of people."
The tour guide wearing a small yellow hat pointed with the tour flag in his hand at the beautiful and lively birds lined up in a row on the bridge pier. They were not afraid even if someone walked by the bridge.
If someone can take out their favorite snacks, they will even allow people to pet them and take photos with them.
The new tourists were also very interested and rummaged through their backpacks, trying to find some biscuits, bread, birds and shadows.
The purpose of going out to play is to take photos. If we don’t take photos, it would be a waste of our trip.
"Mom, I saw a fox!"
Suddenly, a boy who was not even as tall as his mother's waist discovered a red fox hiding in the grass with his unique vision.
Its flaming fur was particularly conspicuous in the grass. When the boy pointed it out, many people noticed it. However, it was much more alert and arrogant than birds. Seeing many bipeds looking at it excitedly, it jumped onto a tree with a few leaps and disappeared.
It is so agile that it doesn't look like an ordinary canine at all.
The boy was not disappointed at all, because thanks to the fox's jump, he discovered something even more interesting hidden in the treetops:
"It's Monkey Brother! Daddy is Monkey Brother!"
His father touched his child's head and said with a smile: "That's just a monkey, not Sun Wukong."
The boy was very unconvinced: "Why?"
His father thought for a moment and said with a smile, "Because he doesn't know how to play with a stick, and he doesn't have a magic cudgel that can grow or shrink."
The young woman next to her rolled her eyes, and used the small wooden sword in her hand that the boy had pestered her to buy, and stabbed her irrational husband in the back with the sword.
The husband, realizing that he had said something wrong, smiled awkwardly, picked up his child, and walked towards the old tree, wanting to take the child to get a closer look at the monkey.
Just as he approached, a Taoist suddenly flashed by and stopped him. The Taoist was wearing a navy blue Taoist robe and seemed to be in his forties or fifties, but his body under the robe was as strong as a heavyweight boxer, and the robe was bulging. Even the young woman just now did not wear clothes to look like this.
All I can say is that her husband still needs to work hard.
Although he looked like a character like Lu Zhishen, the Taoist's tone was very gentle when he spoke: "My good believer, be careful with your feet, there are snakes here."
"There are snakes!"
"There are still snakes in the Taoist temple?"
"Come back soon, you two!"
There was a sudden commotion among the tour group, and the child's mother, the young wife, urged her husband to bring the child back quickly.
