Chapter Thirty-Eight: Zhenlong Land Cause and Effect
Zhenlong!?
It was a simple two words, but the meaning of it made me and Chunting think deeply for a long time.
The original meaning of town is to exert pressure on objects, and it is often used to guard and suppress.
What about this dragon?
Could it be that there is still a real dragon in this Thousand Buddha Temple that can cast clouds and rain?
Fa Ru didn't let us wait too long, only to see that he changed his kind eyebrows and kind eyes just now, holding a Zen staff like a god descending to the earth with angry eyes, looking at us without anger and self-authority.
"You and the others are all people of fate, I watched that when the two of you heard me talk about Zulong just now, although they were suspicious, they were not shocked, and they already knew what Zulong Yingzheng did back then, and there was no need to hide it."
Chun Ting suddenly spoke, and his tone actually revealed a trace of respect for Faru.
"Zulong Yingzheng collected the soldiers of the world, gathered Xianyang, cast twelve golden people, and guarded Shenzhou."
I was taken aback and tried to stop what Chunting said, but he blurted out so fast that even if I stopped him now, it wouldn't help.
Chunting has always been cautious, and what Zu Long did was related to the safety of Shenzhou, why he would be outspoken to this old monk who didn't know the roots, this really made me wonder.
Chunting looked at me and did not shy away from it in front of Faru.
"I seem to have remembered something, and I don't have to hide it in front of the master."
And Fa Ru looked as usual after hearing what Chun Ting said, and sure enough, it seemed that he had already known the true purpose of the twelve golden people cast by the ancestral dragon back then.
I couldn't help but be curious, and I got up and looked at Faru, with the same humble and polite attitude as Chunting.
"Could it be that the Thousand Buddha Temple and the inheritance of the six ancestors of Zen Buddhism are related to these twelve golden people?"
Faru shook his head, twisting his beard and slowly explaining to us.
"This place has nothing to do with the Twelve Golden People, if you really want to count it, this place actually has nothing to do with the ancestral dragon, but it has a lot to do with one of the generals under him."
"Who is it?"
"The Great Wall was built in the north and guarded the fence, but the Huns were more than 700 miles away, and the Hu people did not dare to go south and herd horses, and the soldiers did not dare to bend their bows and complain."
"Meng Tian?"
"It's General Meng Tian!"
Since Chunting said that there is no need to hide Faru, I think this person can believe it in his memory, then what Faru said will not be a mouthful, but why is it Meng Tian?
From the previous Chunting in Jinling's narration, I clearly remember that Meng Tian was at the end of the Warring States Period, and the mighty killing god who had never been defeated in the world, Wu Anjun rose in vain.
After Bai Qi cleared all the obstacles to the unification of the world for King Qin Zhaoxiang, with the mysterious disappearance of Guigu, he also deceived the hidden world, and when he was born again, he had changed his identity, and no one in the world was slaughtered again, but there was one more general who led an army of 300,000 under Emperor Qin to attack the Huns north and recover Henan, and one more generation of famous generals who really made "the Hu people dare not go south and herd horses, and the soldiers dare not bend bows and revenge", Meng Tian.
After the Qin Emperor unified the six countries, Meng Tian set up 34 counties from Yuzhong to Yinshan, crossed the Yellow River, occupied Yangshan, and at the same time built the Great Wall of 10,000 miles from Longxi Lintao in the west to Liaodong in the east, connecting the Great Wall of Yuanyan, Zhao and Qin as a whole, and on the bright side as a fortification, curbing the southward advance of the Xiongnu, and in secret, Chunting had faintly guessed that the Great Wall should be related to the dragon vein. 52
Thinking of this, I glanced at Chunting and suddenly realized.
Zhenlong, in which the town is suppressed, and this dragon is not really a divine dragon that can cast clouds and rain, if we guess correctly, this dragon refers to the Chinese dragon vein.
Understood in this way, this is the place where the dragon vein is suppressed.
If this is the case, we can finally understand why the six ancestors of Zen Buddhism did not hesitate to strictly order their descendants to live in seclusion here for thousands of years to carry out the act of suppressing the dragon, which is really too important in the land of the dragon vein.
The change of this dragon vein is to uphold the essence of heaven, earth, sun and moon and push and change, as the so-called one advance and one retreat of the mystical view, that is, blessing and misfortune.
And we already know that the source of the dragon vein is in Kunlun, that is, the legend of the heavenly pillar is not Zhou, the three dry dragons of China are all from the foot of Kunlun Mountain, the Nantiao Xunlong is the Yangtze River and the South China Sea two water sandwich, the tail of the dragon is in the East China Sea and the South China Sea, the middle of the Yellow River and the Yangtze River sandwich, flicking the tail at the bottom of the East China Sea, the Hojo Genlong is made of the north mountain system of the Yellow River, and the end of the abyss of the Liaohai Sea.
Throughout the topography of China, the size of the dragon veins reflect each other, the stem branches, the branches and branches, the stem branches are staggered, unpredictable, but I don't know what the dragon veins are related to the Thousand Buddha Temple.
Seeing Chun Ting's abrupt expressions and me, Fa Ru knew that we had sorted out the relationship between Meng Tian and the dragon vein, so he continued to talk to us.
"Gonggong angrily touched the Zhou Mountain, Nuwa couldn't bear to be miserable, and made up for the sky, and then the Yellow River flooded, and Emperor Yu controlled the water, this myth that has been passed down to this day is that three-year-old children have heard a lot, so I won't say more."
"But even if Nuwa makes up for the sky, the impact of the joint effort to break the pillar of heaven has not been eliminated, the pillar of heaven is broken, the earth is extinct, the pillar of heaven is damaged and causes turmoil in Shenzhou, after Emperor Yu controls the water, he collects the copper of the world's nine herds, and casts it into Jiuding Town to guard Shenzhou, since the two of you are fateful people, you must have already known, and I don't need to tell about it for the two."
Chunting and I nodded one after another, indicating that Fa Ru and I already had an understanding, and Fa Ru saw that the two of us looked as usual, so he continued to speak.
"Although Emperor Yu cast Ding to suppress Shenzhou, but this dragon vein still has a problem after all, originally Huaxia Quartet was flat, after the Tianzhu was damaged, the sky tilted to the northwest, the earth was not satisfied with the southeast, the Shenzhou dragon vein has a spirit, seeing that the terrain of Shenzhou is tilted to the southeast and low, there is actually a tendency to escape from Shenzhou to the southeast."
"The dragon vein is the foundation of China, if the dragon vein is unstable, then Shenzhou is uncertain, which will inevitably cause natural disasters and man-made disasters, the ancestral dragon Yingzheng ordered Meng Tian to build the Great Wall, and Mingli is to prevent the Huns from going south, and in fact, it is to press the dragon vein in the Great Town, so that the dragon vein will not be displaced."
It turns out that the Great Wall built by Zulong is to suppress the dragon vein that is trying to escape, no wonder Bai Qi incarnated as Meng Tian but has been away for this Great Wall for many years, I have thought about how it is possible to use his skills to be because of the Huns' exhaustion, if it is because of the dragon vein, this can be explained.
Thinking of the purpose of our coming here, I couldn't help but think about it, and tried to verify the Faru.
"Then this place is ...... with the dragon vein"
Seeing my hesitation, how did he not know my intentions, and before I could finish my sentence, he confirmed my thoughts to me.
"This is where the dragon veins have changed their location."
Then, he put the Zen staff aside again, sat down on the futon again, looked at the Arhat statue in the hall, and began to tell us about the origin of this place and the dragon vein.
In the Tang Dynasty, there was a master who looked at the direction of the dragon vein in the world, when he saw Liyang, he found that the position of the dragon vein had changed, he came to Liyang in person under the puzzle, and found that the dragon vein had already shown signs of loosening, and it was no longer the original dragon vein should have the position, he meditated hard, and finally had a good way.
He ordered people to dig a thousand Buddha caves in this Liyang South Mountain, and reluctantly returned the dragon veins with his unfathomable supernatural powers, and at the same time used the Buddha nature of the thousand Buddhas in the cave to suppress the dragon veins that tried to escape, and built a thousand Buddha temples here, and used the Buddha nature to suppress the evil dragon and prevent the dragon veins from dislocating, so as to ensure the tranquility of Liyang.
At the same time, he was worried that even this would not be enough to suppress the dragon vein, so he left another layer of arrangement here.
He imitated his ancestors, divided part of his own power and memory, integrated this power and memory into the nine Buddha sculptures in the Thousand Buddha Cave, and then took out these nine Buddha sculptures, suppressed the dragon eye of this dragon vein alone, and planted a cypress on it, and ordered the descendants of the master to guard this place for generations.
I secretly glanced at the Spring Pavilion, and after listening to the story told by Faru, combined with what the Spring Pavilion said before, how could I not have imagined that the master who left the arrangement here in the Tang Dynasty was the former Spring Pavilion.
I just don't know, what was his identity at that time?
