城(cheng)(cheng)隍(huang),起源(yuan)于古代(dai)的(de)(de)水(隍(huang))庸(城(cheng)(cheng))的(de)(de)祭祀,為(wei)(wei)《周宮》八神(shen)(shen)(shen)(shen)之一。“城(cheng)(cheng)”原指挖土筑(zhu)的(de)(de)高(gao)墻(qiang),“隍(huang)”原指沒(mei)有水的(de)(de)護城(cheng)(cheng)壕(hao)。古人(ren)造城(cheng)(cheng)是(shi)為(wei)(wei)了保護城(cheng)(cheng)內百(bai)姓的(de)(de)安全,所以修了高(gao)大(da)的(de)(de)城(cheng)(cheng)墻(qiang)、城(cheng)(cheng)樓、城(cheng)(cheng)門以及壕(hao)城(cheng)(cheng)、護城(cheng)(cheng)河。他們(men)認(ren)為(wei)(wei)與人(ren)們(men)的(de)(de)生活、生產(chan)安全密(mi)切相關(guan)的(de)(de)事物,都有神(shen)(shen)(shen)(shen)在,于是(shi)城(cheng)(cheng)和隍(huang)被神(shen)(shen)(shen)(shen)化(hua)為(wei)(wei)城(cheng)(cheng)市的(de)(de)保護神(shen)(shen)(shen)(shen)。道教把它納(na)入自(zi)己的(de)(de)神(shen)(shen)(shen)(shen)系,稱它是(shi)剪除兇惡(e)、保國護邦之神(shen)(shen)(shen)(shen),并管領陰間的(de)(de)亡魂。
