Chapter 227 Five Elements God

"Damn, what the hell is this? The words are so small, who can read it clearly?" The person on Feng Tiansheng said impatiently.

Wow, he’s still a ghost who has never seen a mobile phone.

Yan Huan pinched her fingers and made a gesture, "Expand your fingers."

The ghost did as he was told, "Still can't see clearly?"

"Click to view the original image. There is a part that has been processed by my friend." Yan Huanlin gave instructions, and behind him, rows of lush and green bamboos emerged.

"Okay, I'll start reading!"

Yan Huan chopped the bamboo into strips, dried out the moisture with the flame of fire essence, then turned the golden light of his fingers into a carving knife and quickly recorded.

"Five Elements God..."

Yin Gui had just opened his mouth when Yan Huan interrupted him, "Five Elements God?"

"Yes, it says the Five Elements God on it. I hate it when people interrupt me when I'm talking!"

"Sorry, please continue." Yan Huan waved his fingers and wrote, his mind moving as he wished. Golden light flowed into words, all floating on the surface of the dark yellow bamboo pieces.

One ghost and one person began to cooperate in an orderly manner. When they encountered something they didn't understand, they would let other ghosts take turns to fight.

He mentioned several times those words which were enough to shock Yan Huan, but he only looked up and thought for a moment without his fingers stopping at all.

Qingming floats in the air, and the bamboo slips written by Yan Huan are strung together one by one with gold thread, making bamboo slips with a very ancient flavor.

The ghost was cursing and extremely impatient at first, but after the golden spirit appeared, she immediately became quiet and worked so diligently that she seemed like a ruthless broadcasting machine.

In this way, the translation work went more smoothly. In just one hour, four large bundles of bamboo slips were placed in the four directions of east, south, west and north.

The ghost wiped his forehead and said, "I am so tired. Who wrote this? It is so convoluted that even I, who is good at ancient Yi language, was almost confused."

She glanced at the beautiful woman in white clothes in the air, swallowed her saliva, and added, "It seems like there is a part missing from all this content. It just doesn't fit together."

"I can't fill in the gaps that are missing!"

"It's okay. Thank you for your help." Yan Huan bowed to express his gratitude. He knew what was missing.

In the center of the place where the ram stone carving was supposed to be placed, Yan Huan placed his mother Yan Xuan's research notes on the deity of "Hou Tu".

The ghost nodded when he heard the voice, and after a moment, the breeze disappeared and Feng Tiansheng's mind returned.

"Is everything packed?"

"Is this all that Yun Yi and Xuan Yatou left behind?"

Feng Tiansheng glanced at the bamboo slips in four directions. Perhaps the project was too large, and if he stood far away and took a look, it would seem quite spectacular.

While talking, he deliberately avoided glancing at Jin Jing Qingming who was waiting beside Yan Huan.

"Yes! You immediately knew what my parents did?"

Yan Huan spread out a bamboo slip that he had sorted out separately. On it was a sentence from Zuo Zhuan:
"So there are officials of the five elements, which are called the Five Officials. They are actually listed and given a surname, and are given the title of Supreme Lord and worshipped as noble gods. The five sacrifices to the land and grain are respected and worshipped. The Lord of Wood is called Ju Mang, the Lord of Fire is called Zhu Rong, the Lord of Metal is called Ru Shou, the Lord of Water is called Xuan Ming, and the Lord of Earth is called Hou Tu."

The following is "The Five Elements Gods" in "The Book of Jianming": "The wood god is called Ju Mang, the fire god is called Zhu Rong, the earth god is called Hou Tu, the metal god is called Ru Shou, and the water god is called Xuan Ming. The earth god is the only one called Hou, which means "king". Hou means "king". He is in the middle and commands the four elements, so he is called "king".

This is what is called the Five Elements God.

Yan Huan thought about it now and felt that his mother Yan Xuan had simply used some scraps to get things done in the cooperation plan with the Divine Armed Forces in the Phoenix Mountain Bunker.

No matter how you look at it, the divine weapon is not good enough in terms of adaptability and five elements. "Is this the way Xuan's family performs divine acts?" Feng Tiansheng came over.

Even an outsider who was not familiar with divine masks could see that something was wrong.

To deify someone, the key is the word "act". One must interpret the godhood to the fullest extent in order to exert the power to the maximum extent and steal people's faith.

But one person plays five roles. Not to mention the erosion of the divine nature after entering the second level, the switching between these five different divine natures is enough to drive people crazy.

"Grandpa is right, so I suspect that it was done in sequence, and the erosion of the soul by the godhead was transferred to another place by my father using some kind of soul transfer technique."

"These two guys...tsk tsk tsk!" Feng Tiansheng touched his chin and said in amazement.

Rather than the erosion of the divine nature, Yan Huan was more concerned about how to truly drive this magic circle by relying on the unequal power of faith of the Five Elements Gods.

After all, among the Five Elements Gods, the most famous one is the Fire God Zhurong. The number of people who know and believe in the remaining four gods is far less than that of the former.

With doubts in mind, Yan Huan continued to look through the bamboo slips, this time starting from the east and checking all the notes of the wood god Ju Mang.

According to legend, the sun rises from Fusang every morning, and the sacred tree Fusang and the place where the sun rises are all under the jurisdiction of Ju Mang.

Ju Mang, also known as Ju Long, has a human face and a bird's body, and rides on two dragons.

However, in the later development of sacrificial rituals, his image gradually changed into a shepherd boy riding a cow in spring, with two buns on his head and a willow whip in his hand, also known as Mangtong.

Ju Mang is the god of wood, and also the god of spring and grain. He is in charge of growth and development, and harvest is also within his scope of responsibility.

"They are just some ordinary introductions, good harvest..."

"A good harvest?"

"Harvest!"

Yan Huan was enlightened by these two words. He immediately ran to the center and started reading the notes of Hou Tu.

He simply ignored the introductions.

In Yan Huan's opinion, the divinity interpreted by her mother stole not the belief carried on the surface of the Five Elements God, but the powerful prayers generated by the concept.

For example, Hou Tu, the central earth god, took advantage of people's primitive worship of the earth. Not only did she take advantage of the entity of worshipping the earth, but she also stole the belief in the survival concept that the land is "vast and boundless, infinitely powerful, nurturing all things, and carrying all things."

As long as there is farming in the world and people still rely on the land for food, this belief will not disappear.

Similarly, the wood god Jumang is used more to represent the desire for a good harvest and the wish for spring.

Xuanming in the north is the water god of winter and the nine springs of the underworld. Taoists call him the god of the kidneys.

"The kidney god Xuanming, whose name is Yuying."

Any gay man is probably well aware of the weight of these words.

As for Zhurong of the South, the belief in the God of Fire was already deep, so there was no need to transfer concepts from behind. As for Rushou, the God of Gold of the West, he took advantage of the world's awe and fear of punishment.

Feng Tiansheng stood by with his arms folded, "This little girl can actually do this. Ordinary people wouldn't even dare to think about it!"

At that time, everyone said that Yun Yi was extremely talented, but now it seems that our family was a bit too high-end.

"It makes sense in theory, so why did it fail in the end?" Feng Tiansheng said helplessly, with a hint of resentment in his tone as if he was standing up for his grandson and granddaughter-in-law.

“You’ll have to try it to find out.”
