Chapter 42: The Pantheon

Time goes back to the 60s of the last century, in a small town 30 kilometers away from the small county town of Lehe, this town is called Chongkou Town, but the locals love to call this town Yinxian Town, he is located at the foot of Bayan Kara Mountain, the birthplace of the Yellow River, dozens of kilometers north of the village is the Qaidam Basin with a harsh environment, basically sandy land, the environment is extremely bad, but the glacier water on Bayan Kara Mountain flows through this town, in this extremely water-scarce environment, the flow of water is absolutely a luxury for the local area, so this town is very prosperous, and in this part of the western Xinjiang region, in the mountainous areas where Tibetans and Hui people are the majorityThis mountain town is a town dominated by Han people (basically Han Chinese), and such a village is also very rare. What is more rare is that there is a Taoist temple in this mountain town, located on the local Sanfeng Mountain, the shape of the Sanfeng Mountain is peculiar, looking at it from afar, Tianhua Peak is like an incense burner inserted with incense, and the Taoist temple is on the top of the incense in the middle, and looking at it during the day, the surrounding purple gas is swirling, like a fairyland, which confirms the Taoist "one gas and three clearing", and this Taoist temple is also the famous "Pantheon Palace" This pantheon is built according to the mountain, the whole mountain top is the various temples of the pantheon, especially the main hall of the golden immortal hall has the highest altitude, according to legend, when the weather is sunny in autumn, you can see the fire dragon wind of the Qaidam Basin in the distance, there is really a feeling of seeing the three lives of the lower realm floating in the heavens, attracting the incense of the Taoist temple, countless people come to worship.

At that time, the whole country rose up the "color soldiers" (afraid of harmony) movement, when the school went on strike, the students engaged in a big series, the town of Chongkou, which was not very lively, suddenly became lively, it turned out that Wang Sanding, the leader of the color soldiers of Chongkou Middle School, went to the old army mountain to connect and said that the people in his hometown are very superstitious Pantheon, this is the feudal poison!

At that time, a group of people in series listened to it and were very interested, and quickly applied to the local prefectural party committee to go to Lehe County's "series letter", hundreds of people, there are college students, middle school students and even individual primary school students came to Lehe County in a sprinkled manner, at that time the Lehe County Party Committee received a letter of introduction, naturally it was very important, and then Chongkou Middle School was set up as a "Red Guard Reception Station", that day more than 200 people came to Chongkou Middle School, headed by student representatives carrying red flags, which said so-and-so school, dozens of red flags, everyone held a red treasure book, shouting" I want to fight for private criticism" and entered Chongkou Middle School!

Early the next morning, the walls of the town were full of big-character posters, slogans such as "Fight for Chairman Mao", "Follow Chairman Mao in the wind and waves", and "Unite to strive for greater victory" were everywhere on the walls of the town, and Red Guards held red books in their hands and shouted slogans.

The local people came out to see this lively scene, and they all shouted: Long live Chairman Mao!

When the Red Guards saw that the locals supported them so much, they shouted even more happily: Long live Chairman Mao!

After a period of mobilization, everyone was emotional, and at this time, Wang Sanding, the Red Guard headed by him, stood in front of the crowd and shouted loudly: Chairman Mao taught us to defeat all cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods, and now we have them in our town, and the Pantheon Palace on Sanfeng Mountain is a feudal relic, how can we proletariat believe it? This is the spiritual shackles of the landlord class and the bureaucratic class to fool us, and he has put a heavy burden on the local people.

Everyone shouted in unison: Destroy it! Create a new society!

At this time, the student movement under the mountain soon spread to the Pantheon Palace on the top of the mountain, and there was a panic in the Taoist temple, and the head of the temple, Tian Xuanzi, vaguely felt the arrival of the crisis, and everyone went up to the palace to ask the head of the house what to do?

In front of the statue of the Three Qing Gods in the temple, Tianxuanzi knew that the catastrophe was coming, and he cried and said: I am really a sinner for the ages! Such a great Taoist cause was defeated in my hands!

Soon Tianxuanzi calmed down and said: The disciples hurriedly took down the plaque of the Pantheon Palace at the main gate, if the Pantheon Palace cannot be saved, as long as the plaque is there, there is a possibility of rebuilding.

This pantheon is built in the Kaiyuan period of the Sui Dynasty, the plaque is written by Wu Tongxuan, the great writer at that time, the material is made of good nanmu, after thousands of years without rotting, all dynasties and dynasties have local ** appropriations to repair, plus many pilgrims, the Pantheon Palace is bigger and bigger, divided into multiple halls, enshrined in the Taoist gods, as if it is the first Taoist temple in China! Such a scale is even larger than the four famous mountains of Taoism.

Tian Xuanzi took his eldest disciple, and the two of them carried the plaque to find a relatively spacious river on the side of the mountain, due to the urgency of the situation, they threw the plaque into the river, hoping that the color soldiers would not find it, so that when the time to rebuild the view, there would be a little chance to carry it forward.

After Tianxuanzi finished doing it, after returning to the Taoist temple, he sat cross-legged in the main hall, waiting for the arrival of the Red Guards!

Soon, a red flag floated, under the leadership of Wang Sanding, everyone shouted "except for the four old, establish the four new, the rebellion is justified", the villagers and neighbors gathered in the temple under the leadership of the Red Guards, and the villagers in this neighborhood all knew that Wang Sanshi's father was the secretary of the brigade, and he was born an absolute poor peasant.

With a good identity, coupled with the blessing of his father, the villagers are also afraid that they will be criticized by his father, Wang Sanding stood on the stone bench of the Taoist temple and shouted to the Red Guards and villagers: We just want to defeat all feudal superstitions and dare to fight

Superstition, what should we do!

Everyone shouted in unison: Down with him!

The people in the Taoist temple were arrested first, of course, the first thing they did was to tie up Tianxuanzi and wear a high hat with the words Cow Ghost Snake God written on it!

These little soldiers rushed into the Taoist temple with anger, and smashed the statue of the god, and the Taoist priests in the Taoist temple disregarded their lives and protected the statue with their bodies, which completely angered these little soldiers!

This group of students, some of whom are still underage children, even went up to a few big-mouthed fans who were a decade older than themselves, or even a few decades old, and then tied them up again, and some of them really couldn't stand it, so they went up to confront the Red Guards, at this time Tianxuanzi shouted: Disciples!

Be rude!

The disciples looked at the Master who was kneeling on the ground with a high hat and a mark on his back, and cried and shouted, "Are we just going to let them do whatever they want?"

Tian Xuanzi sighed: This is the fate of the Pantheon! We cannot disobey them! Not to mention that they are still children! You must not harm them! This is the way!

At this time, when the local people saw this scene, they began to stop being as angry as they were when they entered the Taoist temple just now, and some even withdrew from the temple!

At this time, Wang Sanding saw that everyone was beginning to retreat, and immediately went up, took a leather whip and beat the tied Taoist priest and Tianxuanzi severely, saying: We can't show mercy to these feudal relics!

But after such a beat, the local people felt sorry for this group of Taoist priests, and they did not dare to step forward, in order to prevent the situation from not developing as Wang Sanding progressed, the villagers' retreat was the biggest unsuccessful.

At this time, he had a poisonous plan in his mind!!!!
