The "ghost town" has beautiful scenery, gurgling streams, mountain flowers, scenery and mountains, and birds singing and springs, which is intoxicating.

Based on their imagination, people have used a legal mechanism similar to that of the human world to build a series of underworld institutions, such as the "Hades Palace", "Ghost Gate Pass", "Yin and Yang Realm", and "Eighteen Layers of Hell". The images of ghosts and gods in each level are varied and strange. The torture instrument is terrifying and chilling, this is the "Netherworld Mansion" displayed in the ghost city of Fengdu, and a ghost world has been formed.

Entering the gate of the ghost city, you can see the commonly known "Yin and Yang Bridge", which is the only way for people to return from the underworld to the yang world.

The legendary ghost capital, because it is adjacent to the ghost world, is the closest to the ghost world, and there are many ghosts who are often here, so it is destined to be the ghost capital.

The capital of the underworld is called the capital city.

In traditional Chinese ghost and god culture, the city of Xudu is the underworld, where the soul of a person will enter after death, and after the judgment of the Lord of Yama, it is decided whether to go to hell or go to reincarnation.

The underworld and the eighteen layers of hell were originally only the afterlife described in Buddhist texts, but they were later used by Taoism to find a rational basis for their arguments.

There is such a legend about the city of Xudu: in the Han Dynasty, there were two people named Yin Changsheng and Wang Fangping, because they saw through the red dust, so they concentrated on cultivating in the famous mountain of Fengdu, and later they all cultivated to become immortals. People spread the word of mouth and slowly spread the two names of Yin and Wang as "Yin King", that is, the king of the underworld, which is what we now call the Lord of Yama.

The legendary underworld

1. The ghost door is closed

The ghost gate pass is an archway, and the three big characters of "ghost gate pass" are written on it. It is a necessary pass to the underworld. There are eighteen ghost kings and imps guarding the door on both sides of the oak chop.

When the spirits come here, they will check to see if they have a pass. This pass is the "road guide". It is a certificate for the soul of a person to report to the underworld after death.

2. Huangquan Road

After the ghost gate, it is Huangquan Road. Legend has it that there will be some fog on both sides of the road, and it will be impossible to see the road ahead. The word Huangquan first appeared in the story of Zheng Zhuang Gong digging the ground to see his mother.

3. Lethe River

Between Huangquan Road and Hades, the boundary is demarcated by the Lechuan River. The Lechuan River is called the "Burial Head River", "Santu River", etc., in the "Ten Kings Sutra of Jizo", and is the dividing line between the yang world and the yin division. It is generally believed to be the concept of Buddhism's "Sutra of the Ten Kings", and the so-called "three paths" come from the three paths of hell, hungry ghosts and beasts in the "Golden Light Sutra".

The water of the Lechuan River is blood-yellow, and it is full of lonely souls and wild ghosts that cannot be reincarnated, full of insects and snakes, and the fishy wind blows on the face.

酆都城 (fēng dū chéng), which can also be written as Fengdu City, is the old superstitious and legendary Yin Si Difu, where people go after death.

酆 (fēng) capital, the legendary underworld, is the place where the soul of a person goes after death. In addition, in real life, there is also a capital city, it is called Fengdu Ghost City, located in the north bank of the Yangtze River in Fengdu County, downstream of Chongqing, has a history of nearly 2,000 years, you can see a lot of legendary buildings here, such as Nai He Bridge, Huangquan Road, etc., countless tourists come here every year.

The legend of the capital city

There is such a legend about the city of Xudu: in the Han Dynasty, there were two people named Yin Changsheng and Wang Fangping, because they saw through the red dust, so they concentrated on cultivating in the famous mountain of Fengdu, and later they all cultivated to become immortals. People spread the word of mouth, and slowly passed on the two names of Yin and Wang as "Yin King", that is, the king of the underworld, which is what we now call the Lord of Yama.

Fengdu Famous Mountain is famous because of the "Yin King", and then after different dynasties, there are more and more statues and buildings related to ghosts and gods here, and the atmosphere of ghost culture is getting stronger and stronger, so that later it has the title of "ghost city". As a result, in the Ming Dynasty, Fengdu was renamed Xudu and officially became the underworld of the world. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, superstition was eliminated and the capital was renamed Fengdu.

Where is the capital city?

It is located on the north bank of the Yangtze River in Fengdu County, downstream of Chongqing, with a history of nearly 2,000 years, and is a tourist attraction for cruise passengers on the Yangtze River. In the city of Xudu, there are many legends of the buildings and shapes of Caodifu in the yin, such as the chain finger of the Hum Ha Temple, the Temple of the Son of Heaven, the Naihe Bridge, the Huangquan Road, the Wangxiang Terrace, the Yaowang Palace, etc.

The original name of Emperor Xudu was Zhongtian Ziwei Arctic Emperor.

酆都 (fēngdū) the Great, also known as the Emperor of Beiyin, Emperor of the Northern Tai, and Emperor of the Northern Yin Dynasty, his duty is to rule the six heavenly ghosts and gods of the six heavens of Luo Yu under the Xudu, and is the incarnation of the Emperor Ziwei of the Middle Heaven Arctic in the netherworld. His birthday is September 9. Tao Hongjing, the master of the Shangqing faction, said that his term of office was 3,000 years, and he was reappointed as soon as his term of office arrived.

The area under his jurisdiction is the capital of the earth, or hell, which has six senses and is responsible for the things of the underworld. As the old saying goes, the heinous and evil people and the ghosts and ghosts will be imprisoned in this place and hell, and they will never be able to transcend the heavenly realm.

Emperor Xudu, also known as Emperor Fengdu, is the god of hell. In Taoist legends, there are several gods who administer hell, and sometimes the Emperor is referred to as the governor of hell. Some believe that he is the hero of ancient legends, Shennong.

Emperor Xudu said: "The Bodhisattva King of Jizo wants to transcend all the ghosts of the underworld, so that the world will no longer do evil and fall into the underworld and hell to suffer. Therefore, all ghosts, even though they have committed mistakes in this world, because they sincerely repent and make amends, can be forgiven for their sins and be spared from all kinds of torture. ”

Emperor Xudu lived in the Xudu Mountains, in the county of Xudu near the present-day Chongqing Municipality in southwestern China. Legend has it that this is the gateway to hell. The mountain is tall and large, with a radius of 300 miles.

It is believed that Emperor Xudu lived underground, where there was a series of hells, each of which was in charge of the gods. After death, people have to go through different hells according to different circumstances. The first is the Absolute Heavenly Palace where everyone goes, the second is where those who died suddenly go to investigate, and the third is where the outstanding or virtuous people go.

If the names of these gods are recited every day, the ghosts can be banished. There are also theories that Emperor Xudu was in charge of 36 hells. To this day, the place is still known as the "Ghost Hail Guess City" by the Chinese.

Bo Yi Kao. Emperor Xudu is the Emperor Ziwei. Fengshen Li Boyi was named the Emperor Ziwei, that is, the Emperor Xudu in the back.
