Been a God,HM CHU, part II,王爺入神
In Taiwan, the belief of Wan-Yea( 王爺, an equivalence to "Brother of an Emperor", BAE) is wide, mostly along the South-Western Seashore. It is said that BAE is a controller, or management of plague, means the god can destroyed the plagues. According to Prof.Liu, C-W., and Prof.Lin, M-S, the belief of BAE should refeered to Chou Dynasty, actually it is frequently referred to Trang Dynasty,i.e the Emperor Li, Shih-Ming's story about a few literary men who devote their life to people.
王爺信仰 在台灣很普遍 尤其是 台灣西南沿海 盛況不亞於媽祖出巡
傳說中的王爺 乃是管理瘟疫之神 原是唐太宗時 的文人 為挽救百姓而犧牲自己 被追封為神者
