Chapter 1 Wusheng Mountain, Tibetan Dingguan
Jiangzhou City is located in the north of the middle of the Yangtze River, is an ancient city, close to the waters of the Yangtze River, with the capital of the exhibition, but there is no great celebrity in history, so it is not famous in the history books, but it also has a real history of nearly 5,000 years, according to legend, the history of Jiangzhou City can be traced back to the ancient Yellow Emperor Chiyou battle.
It is said that this was once a base camp built by the Yellow Emperor to march into the Jiuli Chiyou tribe, but unfortunately it was soon destroyed by the Chiyou, and then the Jiuli army went all the way north and marched to the Central Plains, but unfortunately, in the end, Chiyou failed, and when he was defeated, he passed here again, and finally retreated to the south of the Yangtze River.
Of course, these are legends.
However, the history of Jiangzhou is indeed long.
Therefore, this is a small city with a very ancient style, with a population of two million, and you can see some things containing culture and history everywhere, or the archway, or the bluestone pillars on the side of the street, or the land temple at the foot of the mountain, and many old objects on the antique street.
In addition to these literati things and strange gods, there are also a few more famous places to learn.
There are three places in Jiangzhou, in addition to the Tibetan Dingguan located on the Wusheng Mountain in the north of the city, there are also the ** boxing gym that comes from the north in the city, as well as the Tai Chi boxing gym.
**Boxing gym and Tai Chi gym have a history of nearly 100 years, which was opened at the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China.
However, the Tibetan Ding Temple is the oldest building in Jiangzhou, and it also teaches some health martial arts, it is said that this Taoist temple has existed since the Three Kingdoms period, and it seems that it was ordered to be built by the martial saint Guan Yu when he was in charge of Jingzhou, which is also the origin of the name of this mountain, named Wusheng Mountain. At the same time, there is a huge statue of Guan Erye on the mountain behind the Taoist temple, which is recorded in the Taoist classics, it is a Taoist chief in the Tang Dynasty who carved it personally, and after thousands of years of wind and rain, it still stands, exuding a cold momentum.
This statue of Guan Erye is a rare swordless martial arts statue, that is, this statue of Guan Erye does not carry a knife, but a posture of standing on a horse and stepping out of the fist.
Many people question the origin of this statue based on the posture of this statue, asserting that it is not from the Tang Dynasty, but from the Song Dynasty, or even from the end of the Southern Song Dynasty.
Because, many people say that boxing became popular from the Song Dynasty, and Song Taizu also created ZĂ o out of Zhao's Taizu Changquan, and a generation of Taijiquan master Zhang Sanfeng also appeared in the Yuan Dynasty.
When Wang Cheng heard others talk about it, he also laughed it off.
The statue of Guan Erye is a Tibetan Dingguan, and the classics in the view are indeed clearly recorded, it is in the period of Tang Gaozu, a real person with a Taoist name in the temple was carved at the age of forty, and it took three years to complete, and even the classics in the view also recorded that the two famous heavenly masters of the Tang Dynasty, Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng have come here to observe.
However, Wang Cheng saw from the classics that Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng came here to observe the statue of Guan Erye just by the way, because they knew Chang Songzi. Their main purpose was to study and see the huge bronze tripod erected in the square in front of the Tibetan Ding Temple.
This is the origin of the Tibetan Ding Temple, when the martial saint Guan Yu built this Taoist Hall in this place named the Tibetan Ding Temple, but also because of this bronze Ding.
Wang Cheng read the classics, which recorded that the martial saint Guan Yu was plundered from a tribe of YN This huge bronze tripod cost a lot of manpower to transport back to Jingzhou, but Jingzhou was not suitable for placement, because the place was borrowed, so it was placed in Jiangzhou, and a Taoist temple was built, and a few Taoist priests were invited to be stationed here.
Legend has it that this bronze tripod hides some secrets, but for thousands of years, no one knows, perhaps the martial saint Guan Yu, who took great pains to snatch this bronze tripod back from the southern barbarian tribes, knows, but he did not leave any words, let alone a text description.
So, it's a mystery for the ages.
And this bronze tripod is also called the Tibetan tripod, and this Taoist temple is also called the Tibetan tripod view.
Wang Cheng is a high school student who works in the summer vacation, since he came to the Taoist temple to work, he naturally follows the customs, wears Taoist clothes, and becomes a little Taoist, and his job is to clean up in the Tibetan Dingguan, sort out books and literature, etc., such an errand is not easy to do, there were dozens of people to compete for this position, although it is not as good as the grand occasion of competition for popular positions in government departments, but this is a hard position on the mountain, there are so many people to compete, it can be seen how great the current employment pressure is.
However, this may also have something to do with the salary, three months of work, but there is an income of nearly 10,000 yuan, so that many young people who do not want to work for a long time rush to it. In the end, the Taoist priest of the Taoist temple selected Wang Cheng from among more than a dozen high school students, which made Wang Cheng very excited, and the income of 10,000 yuan was enough for him and his sister to spend next semester.
Early in the morning, Wang Cheng carried a bucket of water and a big broom, came to the square in front of the Taoist temple to clean, this is one of his daily work, this square to clean at least more than an hour, but also to wipe the bronze tripod, basically half a day passed, in the afternoon to go to the backyard library to clean, sorting out the literature and classics.
For more than two months, Wang Cheng came over like this.
Hurriedly swept the square, sprinkled water, Wang Cheng used a ladder to come to the Tibetan Ding, wipe the dust on it, this is the signboard of the Tibetan Dingguan, but also the most famous cultural relics in Jiangzhou, according to the identification shows that it is at least a huge bronze during the Warring States Period, there are names and surnames on the national treasure spectrum, less than 500 meters below the Tibetan Dingguan, there is a 24-hour duty police station, specially designed to guard this bronze Ding, almost all the time there are people staring at this bronze Ding.
Wang Cheng's cleaning process was naturally stared at, and the bucket of water was specially sent over by someone to wipe the Tibetan Ding.
In addition to Wang Cheng, there are several Taoist priests to clean together, after all, the size of this Tibetan tripod is not small, nearly ten meters high, nine bronze pillars with a diameter of fifty centimeters are divided into nine directions, the pillar is about five meters high, each pillar is carved with a dragon with teeth and claws, the tripod on the pillar has a diameter of ** meters, it is carved with many complex patterns, there are portraits of people and animals, they are very hideous and rude, at first glance it is the style of the ancient years, there are also some ancient hieroglyphs, written about the mountains and forests, wind and rain or something.
Not far away, a few policemen were walking back and forth, which was the duty of the police station every morning - to patrol the entire mountain.
"Little orange, go up inside and rub it. â
Changxu Daochang, who has worked in the Tibetan Dingguan for ten years, stood below and said to Wang Cheng, he is the supervisor and the keeper of the cultural relics of the Tibetan Dingguan.
Wearing a Taoist robe, with gold-rimmed glasses, and a crown on his head, Changxu Dao Chang is very generous and graceful, and is somewhat famous in the southern cultural circle, so he usually has a relatively high posture, and ordinary people ignore it.
Wang Cheng agreed, and ran down the ladder to Dingnei, for more than two months, he would try to come to Dingnei every day to clean in person, because there were some things in Dingnei that he was interested in.
According to research, this Tibetan tripod has been confirmed to be something before the Warring States period, and it may be an old thing from the Shang and Zhou dynasties, and the specific age cannot be verified, because there is no clear sign on it to prove which period it is.
Wang Cheng's biggest hobby is martial arts and ancient culture, which can also be said to be the greatest interest in martial arts. After all, many ancient books are written in the clouds, and if you don't know a little about ancient culture, you can't read them at all, and you can't even recognize the fonts.
He came to work in Tibetan Dingguan during the summer vacation, in addition to a salary of 10,000 yuan, because Tibetan Dingguan's martial arts are also quite famous, so he wants to come to learn.
Inside this big tripod, there are many ancient hieroglyphs, corresponding to the nine carved dragon leg pillars below, there are nine big characters, which are heaven, earth, people, wind, rain, mountain, ze, air, and fire. Each large character is surrounded by dense small characters, as well as some motifs of people or animals.
Because of their age, no one can recognize all of them, but archaeologists have made several copies.
Wang Cheng naturally can't be more powerful than those archaeological experts, but he instinctively feels that there must be some secret in the text in this Tibetan Ding, so he will watch it carefully every day, memorize it, go to the Internet, or look for the answer in the literature in the Tibetan Dingguan, for so long, obviously he has not found the answer.
Carefully according to the instructions of the head of the Changxu Dao for the first time, he cleaned the inside of the Tibetan Dingguan step by step, and wiped it to the middle place, there was a semicircular protrusion with a diameter of about fifty centimeters, on which a hideous beast head was depicted, Wang Cheng hurriedly wiped it, and suddenly saw that the beast head seemed to move, and the two eyes seemed to blink.
Surprised!
Wang Cheng was stunned, and then looked carefully, but the beast's head was quiet on the semicircular bulge, not moving.
Am I dazzled by the mistake?
After looking at it twice, there was indeed nothing surprising, as before, Wang Cheng could only attribute it to the fact that he didn't sleep well because he practiced boxing too late last night, and quickly wiped and cleaned other places.
However, at this time, a wave of guests came to Zangdingguan.
"Changxu Dao Chang, Liu Qing in the Xia ** Boxing Gym, came to Guiguan to ask for some martial arts experience, I don't know if I can let Changhe Dao Chang come out to teach him. â
A voice full of breath and a very familiar voice came.
When Wang Cheng heard this, he was immediately startled again, and muttered in a low voice, "Why is Master Liu here?"
The next time I turned around to take a look, but I rubbed a bronze dent in the Tibetan tripod under my feet, and I stumbled and fell, and my head hit the circular bulge in the middle of the last year, and there was a muffled bang, like the sound of the bell of the Shaolin Temple, and the whole Tibetan Ding shook.
Changxu Dao Chang and the others were all startled when they stood below, and hurriedly shouted: "Go up and see what happened." He turned his head to Liu Qing and said, "Master Liu, if you want to come to ask for martial arts, you can go directly to my senior brother." After saying that, he was not at ease, so he climbed up to the Tibetan Ding to take a look.
I saw that the little Taoist priest Wang Cheng's head hit the bronze semi-circular ball in the middle of the Tibetan Ding, and a hole was knocked out of his head, and the blood flowed, dyeing most of the bronze semi-circular ball red.
"Get to the hospital. â
The Changxu Daoist screamed eagerly.
Several Taoist priests hurriedly lifted Wang Cheng up, carefully put him down, and sent him to the car to drive to the hospital.
Changxu Dao Chang stayed on the Tibetan Ding, wiped the semi-circular ball in the middle with the rag that Wang Cheng worked, wiped the blood stains on it, and was stunned for a moment.
"Where's the beast head carving on this?"
Changxu Dao Chang looked at the smooth mirror-like bronze semi-circular sphere, and his eyes widened.
