Chapter 316: Wang Zhong Goes to Korea, a Grand Welcome Ceremony!
"Boss, where are we going next?"
Mary reclined on the sofa, looked at Wang Zhong who was reading a book, and asked quietly.
"Seoul!"
Wang Zhong said without any hesitation.
"Why go to Seoul?"
Mary asked, somewhat surprised.
"The seeds are ripe, it's time to harvest!"
Wang Zhong said with a smile, seeing that Mary was still a little confused, Wang Zhong continued:
"The Taoist temple in Cheonggyecheon, Seoul has been completed, and I need to go over to preside over the opening ceremony!"
"I see!"
Mary nodded understandingly.
"The one jointly funded by Kim Moo-kyun, the mayor of Seoul, and Wen Huaikang, the representative of the Four Seasons Hotel?"
"Yes!"
Although Wang Zhong didn't say anything more, Mary could feel that Wang Zhong was very careful about promoting Taoism!
This time is no exception!
The establishment of Taoism in South Korea and the promotion of Taoism are also a means to achieve external merit, and Wang Zhong does not pay attention to it!
However, before leaving for Seoul, Wang Zhong still gave You Xuande a call!
He needs a professional with a good command of Korean and management skills!
As for other little Taoist priests, recruiting locally in South Korea is that South Korea is not Australia, they have been sinicized for thousands of years, and Taoist culture has long entered South Korea!
Like many countries around the world, legends of gods and goddesses have been prevalent in Korea since ancient times. According to the ancient Korean Taoist book "Blue Crane Collection", it is recorded that the Oriental Immortal School on the Korean Peninsula and the Chinese immortal system originally had a relationship of inheritance, and the famous Korean Oriental Immortal Sect patriarch Huan was enlightened by Ming Yu, and Ming was obtained by Guangchengzi, and Huan Yin's Taoist lineage was inherited by Huan Xiong, Tan Jun, Wen Pu, Yonglang, etc., so that the legitimacy of Dan Jun's rule over the Korean Peninsula as a king has been crediblely confirmed. In addition, ancient Chinese mythology has Penglai, Abbot, Yingzhou Sanshen Mountain, and South Korea also has Mount Kumgang for Penglai and Jirisan Mountain for Abbot. Hallasan Mountain is the legend of Yingzhou.
Chinese tales of immortals and monks arrived in Korea as early as the Qin and Han dynasties, such as the arrival of Fang Shi Han in the time of Qin Shi Huang and the establishment of Ma-Korea, and it is said that Wudou Midao was introduced to Korea in the early 3rd century, but as far as the literature goes, Chinese Taoism was officially introduced to Korea around the beginning of the 7th century.
According to the Korean historical book "Records of the Three Kingdoms", during the third century AD, Lao Tzu's "Tao Te Ching" and Liezi's "Liezi Cheonrui" were already spread in Baekje and Silla society. By the 7th century, reading the Book of Lao Zhuang had become popular among the children of the Silla aristocracy. In the seventh year of Tang Wude (624), Chinese Taoism was officially introduced to the Korean Peninsula, and under the protection of the state, the original Xiandao tradition was further developed. continues to have an impact on the culture of the Korean Peninsula. Not only that, but many Taoist secret texts in China were also introduced to the Korean Peninsula along with the exchange.
Since its introduction to Korea, Taoism has been believed and respected by successive kings, and has developed into a national religion with a huge scale, a large number of people, and far-reaching influence, and has been combined with the inherent beliefs and traditions in Korean history to become a unique Korean Taoism.
After Taoism was introduced to Korea, it can be roughly divided into three major schools: ritual Taoism, cultivation Taoism, and Taoist folk beliefs, which have had a profound impact on Korean society. The practice of Taoism in Korea is a school of Taoism characterized by the study of Taoism Neidan. It is also known as Dan Dao and Dan Xue.
The most famous and powerful of the three major schools of Taoism in Korea is Dan Dao!
There have also been many outstanding figures, such as Cui Zhiyuan!
Cui Zhiyuan is the most influential figure in Korean Neidan Studies, and he once went to the Tang Dynasty to learn the "Reverse Learning" (the cultivation method of Taoist Neidan Studies). Later, he became the originator of Korean Taoist Neidanxue, and his most important work was "Sixteen Formulas for Participating in the Covenant". There are also Jin Keji, Nangong Dou, Jin Shixi, Tian Yuzhi, Yin Junping, Zheng Lei, Zheng Jie, etc., who have deep attainments in Taoist Neidan.
These Taoists pushed Korean Taoism to the top!
However, modern times are the era of the end of the law, and the Tao is not obvious. And there are also historical reasons, the current Korean Taoism has been very declining, and it is being studied as a cultural philosophy!
In the latest social survey. 50.7% of Koreans are religious. Among the religious population, Buddhists make up 46 per cent, followed by Protestants at 39 per cent and Catholics at 13 per cent. The remaining share is divided among Protestantism, Shamanism, Confucianism, Tiandaoism, Yuan Buddhism, Da Kuojiao, etc.!
In this case, Korean Taoism is declining day by day, and there is even the possibility of breaking off the inheritance!
Wang Zhong called on Korean Taoists to join in the name of the suzerain, Jindan Zhenren, which is like a straw next to the drowning man's hand!
Wang Zhong believes that these Taoist priests who practice in the deep mountains will seize the opportunity!
With the help of these locals, Wang Zhong's Taoist promotion plan will go more smoothly!
And what he has to do is to find a capable and loyal Taoist priest to sit in Korea to master this qiē instead of him!
With the successful experience of Taoism in Australia, You Xuande basically obtained the authorization of the Taoist Association without much effort, and the candidate to preside over Taoist work in South Korea became a fragrant gluttony for a while, and became the object of competition among various Taoist factions!
Wang Zhong did not care about the situation of Taoism in China, he believed that those who could go abroad to preside over the work must be the best of the best, and they are the best of the present in all aspects!
After getting in touch with Kim Moo-jun, the mayor of Seoul, South Korea, and Wen Huaikang, the legal representative of the Four Seasons Hotel, these two of his most loyal allies in South Korea launched a crazy campaign for him!
Wang Jong's people have not yet reached South Korea, but his name has appeared frequently on television, newspapers and other media!
Wang Zhong's legendary experience has also been excavated!
Top Feng Shui masters!
A popular author!
HSBC's largest shareholder and chairman!
The youngest contemporary Taoist practitioner with the highest attainment!
This title was released by Wang Zhong for Wen Huaikang, in order to attract those Korean Inner Dan cultivators who lived in seclusion in the mountains!
The youngest high-rank martial artist......
Wang Zhong's experiences have been excavated, and all the people compared to him seem to have become cups on the table!
If the strength of the two people is not much different, it will attract jealousy!
But if there is a great difference, this jealousy will turn into awe and worship!
This is the case with Wang Zhong now!
Although he killed Choi Zhengtai and the Choi Zhengyuan brothers, he brought immeasurable losses to Korean taekwondo!
The people of Seoul hated him to the core!
But now, in addition to hatred, there is more fear and awe!
This is exactly what Wang Zhong wants to see!
It's different from the last time I went to South Korea quietly. Wang Zhong's momentum this time was surprisingly huge.
Not only did they have a lot of accompanying staff members, but also reporters from Hong Kong and Taiwan, and even the mainland sent a Xinhua News Agency reporter for the first time.
When Wang Zhong's plane had not yet landed, the entire airport fell into a quiet atmosphere, because at the entrance of the airport, there were more than a dozen luxury cars quietly parked next to the VIP passage, and the first one was a bright and extended version of Rolls-Royce!
The bodyguard, dressed in black and wearing sunglasses, raised his head with his chest up, and looked at the surrounding environment vigilantly from time to time. They must have brought firearms!
Ordinary South Koreans subconsciously stay away from the VIP channel, for fear that they will be mistaken for a threat and suffer an unwarranted disaster.
"It's such a big battle, which star is going to return to China?"
Someone asked curiously,
"Which celebrity will have such a big pomp, which country should be a dignitary to visit South Korea, right?"
The person next to him glanced at his mouth and said with some disdain.
It is different from the domestic one. South Korea is a country with a lot of stars, and there are more than 100 stars in a small country, not including the number of trainees. So. It's not a fuss to meet a celebrity on the streets of Korea!
"It's also unlikely that dignitaries will be on the news, and traffic is not regulated!"
"No matter, no matter. We'll just have to wait and see!"
"Oh, what's that!"
Passers-by were surprised to find that a large number of reporters were swarming like bees, and all kinds of photographic equipment were quickly assembled!
The bodyguard outside the car just glanced at them. And there was no expulsion!
"Oh my God, is it really a big guy coming to Korea?"
Everyone's mouths opened wide and said in disbelief.
But what surprised them was yet to come. Sect elders dressed in traditional costumes, monks in Taoist robes, and some witches who were obviously shamans also gathered at the airport, and they stood there with solemn faces, looking at the direction of the airport with respectful expressions!
"What's going on!"
"Why is it that even the goddess is here!"
"Who is here today?"
The news that there will be a big man coming to the airport is being spread by everyone intentionally or unintentionally, and more and more people are gathering here to witness the arrival of this legendary big man!
In particular, the shamans came, and they had a lot of reverie!
Shamanism originated from the ethnic groups of Northeast China and is the oldest and most primitive religion in Korea, originating from the worship of nature and ghosts and gods in primitive societies. The Neolithic ancestors of Korea believed in animism, believing that all things in nature, such as mountains, rivers, celestial bodies, rocks, and trees, had souls. And they believe that human beings also have souls and will never die. They miss the good gods who bring good luck to people, and the evil gods who bring bad luck. To this day, shamanism is still the basic religion of Koreans, and some people still retain their shamanic beliefs. For modern people, the content of shamanic rituals to exorcise demons has become a colorful part of modern art such as music, dance, and drama.
Koreans like to call shamans the son of God and the daughter of God, which means son of God, daughter of God!
With the acceleration of the process of modern civilization, shamanism is considered feudal and backward, and the gods and goddesses are also spurned and rejected by them, but deep down, there is an indescribable awe of shamans!
Today, so many shamans are waiting at the airport, which is very rare in South Korea. You must know that whether it is the son of God or the goddess, they inherit the will of God, they are the spokesmen of God in the world, and the dignity in their hearts is beyond the comprehension of ordinary people!
So the Son of God, the Goddess of some kind of Cheng dù is the spokesperson of arrogance!
And today, they are gathering for the first time, and they are obviously waiting for someone!
It's incredible!
"Look, Teacher Fu Ronghua is here too!"
The sharp-eyed person saw a woman in traditional Korean costume walking slowly, and the other shamans bowed their heads to her and said in disbelief.
"It's really Teacher Fu, how is it possible? She has a very high status among the shamans, and often presides over some important activities, but I didn't expect even her to come!"
"Is that the teacher Fu who often holds public lectures?"
"Yes, it's him, in his forties, and he still looks like he's in his twenties!"
A woman said enviously:
"The Son of God and the Goddess are aging very slowly!"
"Look, they're starting to dance!"
"It's a shaman dance, it's rare to see such a large-scale shaman dance, hurry up and take pictures!"
The cameras in the hands of the reporters kept flashing, and the precious photos were preserved.
Shamanic dances in rituals, exorcisms, and healing activities. Shaman dance table xiàn out of the primitive religion belief in animism and totem worship connotation, during the dance, the sorcerer's costume is decorated with animal bones, animal teeth, the holding of the drum is both a ritual instrument and an accompanying instrument, some wear antler hats, bear head hats or decorated with eagle feathers. The movements also mimic a beast or an eagle.
In the past, shamans were often seen dancing shamans, but in today's society, shamanic dances are becoming less and less common, and now they are an intangible heritage!
The shaman dance in Korea is somewhat similar to the shaman dance in Northeast China, but with some characteristics of the local ethnic group!
As they danced, the incense candle symbolizing the spark god was also lit!
The crowd of onlookers looked curiously at the shaman jumping in front of them, and the more people gathered, the more and more people gathered, and finally surrounded the place!
Fortunately, this is in the VIP channel, otherwise it will definitely affect the normal order of the airport!
After the shamans jumped for about half an hour, the VIP passage at the airport was opened from the inside!
Wang Zhong, dressed in a purple robe, walked at the front, followed by a vast number of attendants and reporters!
It's out!
It's out!
It's out!
The reporter outside pressed the button in his hand as if he was crazy!
Syllable!
Syllable!
Syllable!
The moment Wang Zhong walked out of the airport was permanently frozen in the photo!
"See Mama!"
Fu Ronghua walked in front of Wang Zhong on behalf of many shamans and paid homage. The other shamans also fell to their knees, touched their heads to the ground, and shouted loudly.
Mama is the most honorable title in Korea, equivalent to His Royal Highness in Chinese!
Generally, only members of the royal family can use this honorific title!
Wang Zhong has already achieved a half-step golden pill, as long as the merit is complete, he can be completely detached and become a Buddha and an ancestor. Outside the world, in the eyes of the shaman, his status is more noble than that of the emperor!
Therefore, it is not a violation of the law to call it Mama!
They thought so, others didn't, and the people around them and the boss with the reporter's mouth open, looked at the many shamans with a look of disbelief!
What do I hear?
Mama!
When will there be a royal family again in South Korea?
After the Japanese invasion of Korea, the imperial family was forced to dissolve, and the power was handed over to the pro-Japanese government at the time, and the members of the Korean royal family were also sent to Japan for solitary confinement, and the word royal family slowly disappeared in the eyes of everyone, and only when the royal family was sacrificed, they could see their news in the corner!
