Chapter 37: Japanese Onmyoji

When Zou Kun came out of the water again, the sky was already full of stars, and the fierce beast hit the shore, screamed a few times, and turned around and returned to the lake.

Zou Kun finally returned to the city after several tosses, and went to the company the next day, and heard Professor Huang and the little sister at the front desk talking about him, thinking that he was missing, and was about to call the police, Zou Kun felt funny, and hurriedly walked in: "Don't call the police, I'm back." ”

When Professor Huang saw Zou Kun, he immediately hugged him: "You stinky boy, where did you go, we thought you were missing." ”

The little girl at the front desk patted her chest: "Boss, you can't have an accident, what if you don't let me work?"

Zou Kun sneered: "Got it, I'll be fine." ”

Professor Huang was relieved: "Where have you been these days?"

Zou Kun sighed: "It's hard to say, but I have a good thing for you to see." ”

After saying that, Zou Kun and Professor Huang entered the office together, Zou Kun took out a file bag, and took out a stack of photos from the file bag, all of which were taken in the primitive tribe that sank at the bottom of the lake.

Professor Huang took the photo and looked at it carefully, and the more he looked at it, the more surprised he became: "Where did you take these things?"

"It's hard to put into words, what do you think this thing is, Professor?"

Professor Huang frowned slightly: "This thing should be the remains of a primitive tribe, but on such a large scale, and this tribe is obviously built according to certain standards, you see, the civilian area, the noble area, and the place where slaves are held are all built according to a specific pattern, all of which are relatively simple, but they are obviously built according to the pattern of the city-state, at least they have seen the larger cities and learned it."

The fences next to these tribes are clearly fortifications that have been built, and they must have had some scale of warfare.

The characters on these bones should be oracle bones, which were the foundation before the formation of Chinese. ”

Professor Huang flipped through it, picked up the photo of the stake, and looked at it for himself: "This thing can't be Huabiao!"

Zou Kun smiled: "Professor, there is such a simple Huabiao, but there is no roar from the sky on this pillar." ”

Professor Huang glared at Zou Kun: "Huabiao is a traditional architectural form in ancient China, belonging to the ancient palaces, mausoleums and other large buildings in front of the huge stone pillars for decoration, according to legend, Huabiao is a totem sign in the tribal era, known as Huan Biao in ancient times, in the form of a pillar of the legend Yao Shili wooden sign in the traffic artery, for people to write advice, needle and disadvantages. In ancient times, the Huabiao was made of wood, and the Eastern Han Dynasty began to use stone pillars as Huabiao, and the role of Huabiao has disappeared and has become a large pillar erected in front of palaces, bridges, mausoleums, etc.

According to legend, Huabiao has the function of both road signs and passers-by to leave messages, which appeared in the Yaoshun era of primitive society.

At that time, people set up a wooden pillar in the traffic artery, as an identification road and signs, and later post booths, the house also used it as a logo, its name was called "Huan Mu" or "Table Wood", and later collectively called "Huan Mu", because the ancient "Huan" and "Hua" sound is similar, so it slowly read "Hua Biao".

On this wooden pillar, pedestrians can engrave opinions on it, so it is also called "slander wood" or "slander wood". The word "slander" in ancient times meant to discuss right and wrong

According to the historical records, the slander wood of the Yao period was handed over to the column head with a horizontal log, indicating the direction of the main road, and the earliest Huabiao was made of wood, and the roar on the top also appeared much later.

If this thing is really Huabiao, then the thing on your animal skin is very different, it should be a map, and the text on the stone tablet is relatively old, these words are very similar to the seal, but it is obviously the seal body is earlier, it should be the predecessor of the seal body, this relic does not know how many years can advance Chinese history! ”

As he was speaking this, he heard someone outside talking: "Excuse me, is Your Excellency Zou Kun here?"

Zou Kun walked out and saw a woman standing at the front desk, with a strand of long hair, looking a little handsome, but her face looked very cold.

"I am, who are you?"

She bowed slightly: "I am a Japanese onmyoji, Takeshita Xiaomei, please advise." ”

Onmyoji, which originated in China, is widely popular in Japan and forms part of its unique Japanese Shinto – "Onmyodo". An onmyoji is a soothsayer, or illusionist.

They not only know how to look at the stars and face people, but also measure their directions, know the difference in calamity, draw talismans, chant spells, and perform illusions. They are also well aware of the unseen powers of people, such as fate, spirits, and ghosts, and have the ability to control these things.

In order to eliminate the contradictions between heaven, earth, people, and ghosts, the "onmyoji" dressed in hunting clothes showed their skills. They use all-encompassing hexagrams and mysterious spells to exorcise evil spirits, kill demons and destroy monsters, and become powerful protectors for everyone from the royal family to the common people! However, the job bowl of the onmyoji is not easy to hold, and in order to survive in the deceitful court, they must be familiar with all the elegant things, such as songs, Chinese poems, pipa, flute, and incense or tea ceremonies. In addition, you must have the ability to see through people's hearts and have a professional ethic that does not leak secrets. Therefore, those who can become onmyoji are all first-class talents at that time.

Onmyoji was a popular profession in Japan, and the Japanese emperor received spiritual peace and social security from Onmyoji, and the Japanese people received comfort from Onmyoji. During the period of obscurantism, Onmyoji was the spiritual pillar of the entire nation. Onmyoji in Japan originated in China. Although Japan was the representative of the prosperity of the Onmyoji and gradually declined in China, the true origin of the Japanese Onmyoji came from the Chinese doctrine of the five elements of Yin and Yang. The theory of yin and yang is a branch of ancient Chinese philosophy, which represents a concept of dividing into two, everything is two, one is the other, and the other is the law by which all things in the world can be generated.

During the Warring States Period in China, there was a school of thought that advocated the doctrine of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements called the "Yin and Yang Family", which was mainly represented by Zou Yan and Zou Zheng of Qi at that time. The "Yin and Yang Theory" regards "Yin" and "Yang" as two mutually reinforcing forces within things, and believes that they are the laws of generation that give birth to all things in heaven and earth.

The roots of Onmyodo in Japan are in China, and although Onmyodo was introduced to Japan from China, there is no such name as "Onmyodo" in China. The term "Onmyodo" really appeared in Japanese historical records in the 10th century. At this time, the Yin-Yang Tao had both divination, sacrifice, astronomy and other applications, and it was already different from the original Chinese Yin-Yang thought. In general, Yin-Yang Dao is an esoteric spiritual system based on the five elements of Yin and Yang in ancient China, combined with astronomy, calendar, divination and other disciplines, and developed with the idea of the unity of heaven and man as the axis, and is used to predict auspiciousness, auspiciousness, spells, sacrifices and a series of other affairs.

Zou Kun was very strange when he arrived, and made a gesture of please: "Please here." ”

Zou Kun took Xiaomei to the office together, and after the two parties were done, Zou Kun began to ask: "Miss Xiaomei is looking for me to have nothing to do?"

Xiaomei seemed a little embarrassed: "I'm here to ask for help." ”

Zou Kun secretly thought, he doesn't seem to have any dealings with Japan?

Xiaomei sighed: "Recently, when the grandmaster was doing the deduction, he found something terrible, if the grandmaster doesn't think of a way, the thousand-year-old fierce spirit will come out to make trouble, and I still have to inform you." ”

Zou Kun paused for a moment: "Inform me, do I have anything to do with this matter?"

Xiaomei sighed: "In the Tang Dynasty, the Tang envoys were sent to China to learn Chinese culture, our ancestors met the Yin and Yang family, learned a lot of Yin and Yang spells, and after hundreds of years of evolution, there was a later Japanese Yin and Yang Master.

At the beginning, the Onmyoji stole a soul bottle from China, in fact, according to our regulations, no one was allowed to open the soul bottle, but then there were some accidents, the black ninja stole the soul bottle, opened the soul bottle, and released ghosts from the soul bottle, including the later kappa are related to this soul bottle.

But if it's just some ghosts, it's very simple, recently the high priest has completely deciphered the role of the soul bottle, in fact, the main role of the soul bottle is to suppress the ancient murderous spirits, and now it seems that this murderous soul is about to be resurrected, so I still have to ask you to think of a way to the only Yin and Yang family heir. ”

Zou Kun was a little angry: "You caused something and now you want me to do that?"

Xiaomei lowered her head embarrassedly: "It's really bothering you, I know you're looking for the cathode, so I can help." ”

After saying that, Xiaomei came out of a small bowl, and then took out a small bottle, opened the bottle and found some liquid in the bowl, and then took out a spirit flag, shaking on the top of the bowl, and chanting words, it didn't take long for the sound and shadow of Xiao Ru to appear in the bowl, Xiao Ru seemed to be in a city, there was no Xiao Ru in this city, there was no one in Xiao Ru.

Zou Kun excitedly began to shout: "Xiaoru, Xiaoru ......"

Xiao Ru's body shook, as if she was very happy: "Zou Kun Zou Kun, where are you? Hurry up and save me, I'm trapped here, it seems that there is no end and no edge here, I feel like I'm stuck, come and save me." ”

"Xiaoru, don't worry, I'll come to save you and tell me how to go. ”

"Conch, your conch ......."

Xiao Ru's voice began to become farther and farther away, the water in the cup also turned into liquid, and Xiao Ru could no longer be seen, Zou Kun looked at Xiao Mei, Xiao Mei looked helpless: "It's only such a short time, I will help you find out about the cathode, and I still have to ask you to take care of the matter of the soul bottle." ”

After speaking, she took out a small copper stove the size of a palm from her bag and gave it to Zou Kun, Zou Kun looked at the copper furnace, it was obviously made of bronze, like an incense burner, but there were no holes, there were some buttons around to buckle the lid, and there were some strange runes next to the stove, Zou Kun looked at it carefully, and thought that this thing was too small, right?
