Predestined time of death, fast pays Mission, returns from the grave for on...... before then, something can do......” “罢了！大限将至,还是速速缴纳任务,还阳为上……不过在这之前,一些事便可做了……” Wu Ming turns, 9th Grade Land God's Decree that before obtained appeared. 吴明手一翻,之前获得的正九品土地神敕就浮现出来。 Compares in the beforehand stone strip, on this time divine decree is actually the white light fills, is rippling the strange fluctuation, sees knows uncommonly. 相比较于之前的石条,此时的神敕上却是白光充满,荡漾着奇异的波动,一见就知不凡。 This is he surpasses the ghost, after resulting in the Virtuous merit golden light, directs the result of irrigation unceasingly. 这都是他超度亡魂,得了功德金光之后,又不断引之灌注的结果。 „Before was the divine object from dark, now was to actually visit me was qualified, did this expose the prestige energy?” “以前是神物自晦,现在却是看我合格了,这才展露威能？” Wu Ming smiles, knows that land / territory this Forder Righteous God, the certification standard naturally is Virtuous merit one kind, own approach, actually happen to hit in this pass/test key/opening. 吴明一笑,知道土地这种福德正神,认证标准自然就是功德一类,自己的做法,却是正好撞到了此中关窍。 Beforehand General Black Wind, not only without Virtuous merit, instead has deadly aura, wants refining this Godhood, is quite troublesome, changes into present Wu Ming to come, even wants a nod, immediately can ascend a height to get a broad view Godhood. 之前的黑风大将,不仅没有功德,反而身有煞气,要炼化此神位,却极为麻烦,换成现在的吴明来,甚至只要一点头,立即便可登临神位。 „Is only...... enters the system, immediately must have jurisdiction by Heitai City God, does not know in the middle of this Godhood, was kept many dark hand......” “只是……一入体制,立即就要受到黑台城隍管辖,并且,焉不知这神位当中,被留了多少暗手……” Thinks of here, immediately no longer hesitant, takes out Suihou Pearl, infiltrates secret art. 想到这里,当即不再犹豫,取出随侯珠,打入法诀。 „Roar roar!” “吼吼！” The snake shadow that in Suihou Pearl, the ring walked randomly appears suddenly, the scales are towering, grow Single-Horned , opens to swallow a day of mouth, one swallows Land God's Decree. 随侯珠之内,原本圆环游走的蛇影蓦然浮现出来,鳞甲峥嵘,长出独角,张开吞天之口,一下就将土地神敕吞下。 In the ancient times Heaven's child, the journey has hundred gods to follow, may offer sacrifice to heaven to seal/confer God, this is grasps the Low Grade ghosts and gods the imperial edict to seal the power. 古代天子,出行有着百神相随,又可祭天封神,这就是掌握低阶鬼神的敕封大权。 City God and land / territory are also naturally one of them. 城隍、土地自然也在此列。 Wu Ming this act, is must by Dragon Qi succinct divine decree, the brand mark will erase thoroughly. 吴明此举,乃是要以龙气洗练神敕,将原本烙印彻底抹除。 In Suihou Pearl the bright light puts greatly, the faintly visible purple snake pursues scenery of the round white light, golden and azure cloudy aura is seething rapidly, the consumption of, making the Wu Ming heart be startled slightly. 随侯珠中明光大放,隐隐可见紫蛇追逐一轮白光之景,金青云气迅速翻腾着,其中的消耗,令吴明都略微心惊。 Shortly, Destiny in Suihou Pearl was short enough 20%, made the Wu Ming surprise: „So are why many? Not too small Land God position......” 倾刻之间,随侯珠内的气运又少了足足20%,令吴明诧异不已:“为何如此多的？不过小小一个土地神位……” Péng! 蓬！ The white light blasts out, was derived, turnover...... faintly visible white talisman to reappear by the purple snake thoroughly, above the beautiful calligraphy, the paper lives the mist, dense and numerous rune change into luminous spots, resembles the tadpole to hover fiercely, blasts out suddenly. 白光炸开,彻底被紫蛇汲取、吞吐……隐隐可见一张白色符箓浮现,其上笔走龙蛇,纸生云烟,密密麻麻的符文化为一个个光点,似蝌蚪般剧烈游动,又蓦然炸开。 Angrily roars, a sigh resounds one after another. 一声怒吼,一声叹息接连响起。 At once, the luminous spot that white talisman blasts out was absorbed by the purple snake all, puts out brand-new talisman. 旋即,白色符箓炸开的光点尽数被紫蛇吸收,又吐出一张全新的符箓来。 Newborn talisman changes into a white light, falls into the Wu Ming hand, resembles the Ming Yue Dongsheng, has a thing, resembles seal to resemble the symbol, the bottom appears myriad things to produce, small village hundred the condition and Yin-Yang Samsara scenery, holds merely in the hand, is seeming to be the heaviness of state! 新生的符箓化为一圈白光,落入吴明手中,似明月东升,中有一物,似印似符,底部浮现万物生发、小村百态、阴阳轮回之景,仅仅是托在手上,就似有着社稷之重！ „Does not want to consume so in a big way......” “不想消耗如此大……” Wu Ming sighed, received Suihou Pearl, Spirit Consciousness touched slightly, a large share information revealed. 吴明叹息一声,将随侯珠收好,灵识略微一触,一大股信息就流露出来。 „9th Grade Black Water Town Land God's Decree, in has to assist myriad things to grow and bless mortal family security, and even runs the Yin-Yang communication divine ability......” “正九品黑水镇土地神敕,内有辅助万物生长、保佑凡人家宅平安、乃至掌管阴阳沟通的神通……” Land God, is the god of proper country offering sacrifice, has to give birth to under myriad things and Fowle the people, and hell administration three big functions. 土地神祗,乃是正经的国祀之神,更有着生养万物、福尔下民、以及地府行政三大职能。 «Imperial Readings of the Taiping Era» has the cloud: „Country is citizen-centric, food is what matters to the people, therefore constructs the monarch people, first life sets up the society, the broad valley are many, cannot spread the sacrifice, therefore in Yu Guocheng, sets up the altar/jar to offer sacrifice.” 《太平御览》有云:“国以民为本,民以食为天,故建国君民,先命立社,地广谷多,不可遍祭,故於国城之内,立坛祀之。” «Sou Shen Ji» also had the record, Land God once the manifesting a spirit say/way said: ‚I work as for this reason Land God, under people by Fowle’. Under Fowle who here refers to people, referred to blesses native place family security, has a baby the import, all domestic animals are thriving, and manner is just. 《搜神记》又有记载,土地神曾显灵道说:‘我当为此土地神,以福尔下民’。这里所指的福尔下民,指的就是保佑本乡本土家宅平安,添丁进口,六畜兴旺,并且为人公道。 But a view, is Land God runs the nether world household register, leads the way for the dead, therefore also some netherworld authority. 而还有一种说法,便是土地神掌管阴司户籍,为死者引路,因此也有部分阴间权柄。 „Does not want really to have...... Heitai City God subordinate land / territory, has so many divine ability?” “不想真的全都有……黑台城隍麾下的土地,有如此多神通么？” Wu Ming is actually the heart startled, knows own so approach, the ban that even exerted on the god eradicates, although the level is invariable, but the power has, had the infinite development potential. 吴明却是心惊不已,知道自己如此做法,甚至是将原本上神施加的禁制破除,虽然位阶不变,但权能具备,却是有了无限的发展潜力。 „Is only the dark hand brand mark that inside leaves behind, as if there are two......” “只是里面留下的暗手烙印,似乎有着两个……” In the Wu Ming pupil none flashes continually, attempts to analyze in the Land God position, that some divine ability rune of representative Yin-Yang legal jurisdiction. 吴明眸中精光连闪,又尝试解析着土地神位中,代表阴阳法权的那部分神通符文。 „Land God may come and go out Netherworld, is only the strength of this hauling is really big, if I do not ascend a height to get a broad view Godhood, but draws support from divine ability to be separated, perhaps needs to consume massive Dragon Qi......” “土地神本来就可出入幽冥,只是此界牵引之力甚大,我若不登临神位,只是借助神通脱离,恐怕需要消耗大量龙气……” „This, can be the last resort actually!” “这个,倒是可以作为最后手段！” This time Land God's Decree, actually becomes the Wu Ming genuine private thing, has the escape route in the hand, was actually pitching fearless. 此时的土地神敕,却是成为了吴明真正的私有物,有着退路在手,却是俯仰无惧了。 „Un...... under Land God, but may also appoint to be the government official three people, Yin General, yin soldier(s) one team...... this Godhood imperial edict seals, is enfeoffs the power simply......” “嗯……土地神麾下,还可任命属吏三人,阴将一名,阴兵一队……这神位敕封,简直就是分封大权啊……” In Wu Ming none flashes continually, he wants from the beginning, this. 吴明目中精光连闪,他一开始想要的,也不过这个罢了。 ...... …… Underworld boundary. 冥土边界。 The spooky white light flashes through together, changes into an ignorant youth form. 一道幽幽的白光闪过,化为一名浑浑噩噩的青年身影。 This is the new soul, is easiest to tempt solitary wild ghost to covet, the a trace silk dark gray mist, has the greedy flavor, unceasingly going forward social climbing. 此乃新鲜的生魂,最容易诱得孤魂野鬼觊觎,一丝丝灰黑之雾气,带着贪婪的味道,就不断上前攀附。 „Who am I......?
