Chapter Eighty-Three: Five Doumi Sect
"Heavenly Master Dao? Mo is not the Five Dou Rice Sect in Hanzhong? "Han Zhong is a native of Nanyang, and he has also heard the name of the Heavenly Master Dao from the mouth of his neighbors, because he only needs to teach five buckets of rice to join the sect, so more people call the Heavenly Master Dao five buckets of rice.

Wudou Mijiao was founded by the Heavenly Master Zhang Daoling, and wrote "Lao Tzu Xianger Note", which laid the foundation for the development of Taoism in the later period. At that time, in the Bashu area, the Ba people believed in primitive witchcraft, and large-scale obscenity harmed the people. And these Dharma sorcerers who worship ghosts and gods gather people to collect money and do all kinds of evil. Zhang Tianshi, together with Wang Chang, Zhao Sheng's two disciples and the Yellow Emperor's Jiuding Danjing, came to Beibi Mountain to practice. Later, there was a large-scale religious conflict with the witch group. Later, the story of Zhang Tianshi's Taishang Laojun sword seal talisman to break the ghost soldiers in Sichuan and Chongqing was based on this.
Speaking of religion in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, we have to mention the evolution and development of Huang Laoxue. The sacrifice to Huang Lao had already appeared in Chu Di, where Huang Laoxue was prevalent, as early as the Ming Emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty.
Yuan Hong's "Later Han Dynasty" volume 10 is also said to be the king of Chu Liu Ying "happy Huang Lao in the evening festival, and repair the Futu Temple". The worship and sacrifice of Huang Lao's idols, comparing Huang Lao with Futu, has revealed the religious smell of Huang Lao.
"Emperor Huan Ji" also records that Emperor Huan once sent in the first month of the eighth year of Yanxi (165 years) to serve the bitter county of Zuo Qi, the ancestral shrine of Laozi. In November of the same year, he "made the bitter county of the overlord in the middle of the long service, and the ancestral shrine of Laozi". In the second year, "the ancestral hall Huang Lao Yu Yulong Palace". From the general belief in Huang Lao's micro-dialect to the worship of Huang Lao's idols, this is already almost religious.
Taoism in the late Eastern Han Dynasty directly inherited the tradition of Taoism and Huang Lao worship in the early Han Dynasty, and the Heavenly Master Tao founded by Zhang Daoling in the late Eastern Han Dynasty and the Taiping Tao founded by Zhang Jiao were all derived from Huang Lao Dao. The Book of the Later Han Dynasty? The Biography of Huangfu Song recorded: "At the beginning, Julu Zhang Jiao claimed to be a great sage and good teacher, serving Huang Laodao. "The General Guide to Information Governance? Emperor Ling's Chronicles" Guanghe six years: "Julu Zhang Jiao served Huang Lao, taught with witchcraft, and called Taiping Dao. "The Book of the Later Han Dynasty? Liu Tao's Biography said: "When the giant deer opened his horns and pseudo-supported the avenue, bewitching the people. ”
From a religious point of view, the "Yellow Heaven Avenue" entrusted and respected by Taiping Dao is the god Taishang Laojun of "Changzhi Kunlun", that is, the deified Laozi. Taiping Dao may have started as a heretical group of Huang Lao Dao, but later it slowly evolved into a religious force plotting rebellion. But from the root of Taoism, Zhang Jiao's Taiping Dao and Zhang Daoling's Heavenly Master Dao are actually Taoist forces that believe in Huang Laoshen.
"It is this Wudou Mi Sect, when the master had an incident, he sent someone into Hanzhong to discuss major matters with Zhang Xiu, the head of the Wudou Mi Sect, and when the marshal came to Nanyang, the master had told me that if there was a discord, I could ask Hanzhong for help. Now that the official army is in full swing, if we can get the help of Hanzhong, maybe we can regain our foothold in the south. "Zhang Mancheng heard his master Zhang Jiao say that the origin of the Wudoumi Sect was earlier than the Taiping Dao, and the founder of its sect, Zhang Daoling, had the prestige of the Heavenly Master, and it is said that it did not die of old age in the end but became an immortal under the guidance of the gods and generals!
But after listening to Zhang Mancheng's introduction, Han Zhong, who had lived in Nanyang for a long time, frowned: "Dashuai, as far as I know, that Zhang Xiu is the great wizard of the Bashu Witch Sect, hasn't the Wudoumi Sect in Hanzhong always been like fire and water with the Bashu Witch Sect?" Why did Zhang Xiu, the great wizard of the witch sect, become the head of the Hanzhong Five Doumi Sect? ”
"What? Is there such a thing? Zhang Mancheng was dumbfounded when he heard this, Zhang Mancheng is a northerner, and he has been following Zhang Jiao's side before, where do he know the detailed information of this southern Bashu land. He only knew that Zhang Jiao suddenly established contact with the Wudou Mi Sect in Hanzhong a few years ago, and he only knew that the current head of the Wudou Mi Sect in Hanzhong was Zhang Xiu, as for whether this Zhang Xiu was Zhang Daoling's heir, and what his identity was before he became the head of the Wudou Mi Sect, Zhang Man's achievements were really unclear.
Han Zhong shrugged his shoulders: "Before the incident, there was a merchant from Hanzhong who came to Nanyang to bring news, since the death of Zhang Heng, the second generation of the Heavenly Master Dao, it seems that because his son is still young, the power has been taken away by outsiders, but I never thought that it was Zhang Xiu of the Bashu Witch Sect who succeeded. ”
"Forget it, no matter who this Zhang Xiu is, as long as he is willing to cooperate with my Taiping Dao. The original plan remains unchanged, as long as we break through the defense line of the official army, we will go to Shangyong. Zhang Mancheng rubbed his swollen eyebrows, and he didn't plan to discuss Zhang Xiu's questions anymore. After all, at the moment, Taiping Dao no longer has any allies except Zhang Xiu, and when the whole world is an enemy, Zhang Xiu's existence is even more important.
…… Dividing line ........
At the East Inner Gate, when Zhu Jun led tens of thousands of troops to kill, what he saw was a sea of fire outside the East Inner Gate, and the only remaining remnants of Sun Jian's more than 1,000 remnants of the army.
Zhu Juntie's face was blue, and he yelled at Sun Jian: "Sun Jian! What happened? Why is there a sea of fire at the east inner gate, and there are only these five thousand elites left with you? ”
Sun Jian sat on the ground with his head down, not saying anything.
Cheng Pu, who was on the side, was worried that Zhu Jun would punish his father-in-law, so he got up and explained: "General Zhu is angry for the time being, the reason why he is like this is because Han Zhong's dog thief not only surrendered by fraud, but also prepared a large amount of fire oil and stone rolling wood. After our army entered the city and passed half of the centaurs, the dog thief caused people to smash down stones and rolling logs to block the city gate hole, and then dropped countless fire oil to ignite a sea of fire outside the city. We originally came to grab the door this time, not only did we not bring siege equipment such as ladders and chariots, but we were not even equipped with any crossbowmen. In addition, there is a wall of fire outside, and there is no way to get close to the east gate wall, so we can only wait here for the arrival of the general's army to make plans. ”
"Ahem, Sun Wentai's department is seriously damaged, so let's withdraw to the camp first to rest. Next, as long as the fire is slightly extinguished, Ben will organize men to attack the city overnight. Since this Han Zhong is loyal to the Yellow Turban thieves, when Ben will attack the city, he will definitely kill him and all the Yellow Turban thieves in the city, so as to pay tribute to the heroic souls of the fallen soldiers in this battle! ”
Hearing the whole story, Zhu Jun couldn't lose his temper at Sun Jian anymore. Han Zhong's surrender itself was strange, and he didn't fully believe Han Zhong's words, so the five thousand elites assigned to Sun Jian were all sword and shield soldiers who were good at defense. But Zhu Jun guessed the possibility of Han Zhong's deception, but he didn't expect Han Zhong's methods to be so ruthless, he actually blocked the city gate hole with stones and rolling wood, and used a large amount of fire oil to create a sea of fire outside the city.
It can be said that a large part of Sun Jian's defeat was caused by Zhu Jun's own carelessness, if he did not accept Han Zhong's surrender from the beginning, he might not have lost thousands of elites in vain.
