Chapter 181: Black and White Impermanence
The woman said, "I am willing, if I don't see that answer, I can't let go of my love for him, even if I am reincarnated, I will have a heartache for a lifetime." The woman was then arranged by Meng Po to hoe the grass on the other side, in fact, there was no grass to hoe, but the woman's eyes were full of grass, hoeing and growing, and the hoeing would never be finished, just day after day, year after year.
Twenty years later, Meng Po took her to the gate of reincarnation and said, "You stand here and watch, but don't speak, the person you have been waiting for for twenty years is coming." ”
The woman couldn't stand up in excitement, and finally calmed down, and stood there nervously waiting for the person she loved to appear. At last he came, and it turned out that he was sick, not cured, and in his early forties, he died again.
He walked up to her and Meng Po, and Meng Po handed him the water of forgetfulness, and he picked it up and was about to drink it, but the woman was anxious and said, "Have you forgotten what you said?" ”
The man glanced at her, drank the water from the bowl in his hand, and walked into the reincarnation door.
Meng Po looked at the depressed woman and said, what is love? It's just a bowl of water, you drink it too, can you forget that it's not up to you to say, there is this life, there is no afterlife, even if you remember, if he forgets, what is the difference between it and really forgetting?
And then there is the legend about black and white impermanence, it seems that this wanted notice is the introduction of the life of the entire underworld ghost division, although I don't understand what Ye Mingchen is doing this for, but Su Ling still has the patience to read this thing.
Impermanence's name is Xie Bi'an, which belongs to yang. He is often full of smiles, tall and thin, pale complexion, with a long tongue, and the official hat on his head has the words "wealth at first sight" written on it, giving thanks and good luck to those who respect the gods, and respecting them as "impermanence", "white master" and so on. Suck the ghost of the male, and scatter the soul of the female.
Black impermanence is called Fan Wusheng, which belongs to yin. The face is fierce, the body is wide and fat, the face is small, and the official hat is written with the words "the world is peaceful", which means that there is no forgiveness for those who disobey the law and bear the guilt, and they are called "short master" or "black master". Suck the yang soul of the woman, and scatter the yang spirit of the man.
Black and white impermanence, also known as impermanence. These two gods are handcuffed and handcuffed, full-time arresting ghosts, assisting in rewarding good and punishing evil, and are often the generals of the gods of the underworld such as King Yama, Chenghuang, and Emperor Dongyue.
"From ancient times to the present, the colors of Taiji Tu are black and white, and there is no representation of other colors such as yellow and purple, so it is impossible for people to deviate from the theory of yin and yang when describing things. This is also in line with the contrasting black and white colors of the yin and yang fish in the Taiji diagram. It can be seen that the theory of "impermanence" is also inseparable from the Taiji diagram, and the theoretical basis of "impermanence" is the theory of yin and yang. ”
For example, if the male ghost is attracted by white impermanence, black impermanence is obviously useless. If the soul is scattered, it will die, the soul will fly, and the soul will be scattered, which is actually saying that the soul and the spirit have left the human body. To fly the soul is to be attracted to impermanence and to capture. And the spirit is to disperse, that is, the "spirit" no longer gathers in the body, is withdrawn and sucked away by external forces, and the form of the "spirit" is dissolved. And scattered, you have to rely on impermanence. The principle is still that the same sex repels each other, and the opposite sex attracts. When the yang spirit encounters black impermanence, it will attract, and the "spirit" will be sucked and sucked away from the human body, and eventually the spirit will be scattered. In the same way, the yin spirit can only be dispersed when it encounters white impermanence.
White impermanence is the representative of the masculine, black impermanence is the representative of the feminine, and the human soul is divided into yin and yang. The female yang soul is attracted and captured by the femininity of black impermanence.
The principle of impermanence fixing the soul to oneself is that the same sex repels and the opposite sex attracts. The legendary ghost saw black and white impermanence, that is, he could not move, and in fact he was attracted by an extremely strong force. It is often necessary to have two attributes, yin and yang, that is, black and white.
For men, white impermanence sucks its yin soul, and black impermanence disperses its yang; For women, black impermanence sucks its yang soul, and white impermanence disperses its yin spirit. Therefore, black and white impermanence must be introduced at the same time. Being led by black and white impermanence is not a bad thing, indicating that in the relatively advanced reincarnation, they have not become the legendary lonely ghosts.
The origin of black and white impermanence.
First of all, Bai Wuchang, when Bai Wuchang went out on business one day, he met a woman with two children crying in front of a grave, very sad, after inquiring and learning that this lady was originally the daughter of a rich family, but no one dared to marry because she was a pockmarked face, and then was confused by the family servant Ao Da's rhetoric; Later, he was recruited as a son-in-law, and his father-in-law mentioned him as the head manager, and he was in charge of all the big and small affairs of the family.
But soon after, this Ao Da was completely exposed, eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling outside, and the family property was also not cared for, and it was becoming more and more degraded, and the father-in-law was already old and frail, but he was angry to death soon after; After that, Ao Da had no scruples, but he pitied his wife and children at home. After Bai Wuchang learned about it, he felt pity for this poor woman and decided to teach Ao Da a lesson and show Miss Chen San a way to survive.
Under the control of Bai Wuchang, this Ao Da gradually lost his estate, and the woman left with the few remaining possessions and children in the family; And Bai Wuchang also gave this woman a lot of wealth, and when this woman's son grew up, the merchant made many profits, and gradually became a wealthy businessman, and he was extremely filial to his mother; This is why it is said that when a good person sees white impermanence, he "makes money at first sight".
It is said that when black impermanence was still alive, he was quite unfilial, and he liked to work hard since he was a child, smoking and gambling. The father disciplined, but the son just didn't listen. Once, my son came back from gambling and lost everything. The father accidentally beat his son to death. After the death of his son, his bad habits did not change, and the ghost still did evil and harmed people in the world.
A few years later, one night, my son came to the door of his house, and as he was about to enter the house, the dog in the yard barked incessantly. His father knew that there were dead ghosts who were coming to harm people, so he went out of the house with a knife in one hand and a tung oil lamp in the other hand to collect ghosts. When the son saw his father's fierce approach, he jumped up to the house and said, "Father, the child is not here to harm anyone, but he just wants to come back and see your old man." ”
Under the persuasion of his father, this unfilial son really did not come to harm anyone again, and he went to the eighteenth layer of hell to be punished. In the eighteen layers of hell, he endured a lot of hardships before he realized the preciousness of life, and the evil things he did in the past were really sinful. Once, King Qin Guang, one of the Ten Palaces of Yama, summoned him and said, "Why don't you go and take a stand-in to return to the yang?" ”
He said: "In my previous life, I have done all the bad things that were hated and scolded by thousands of people, and wherever I went, people everywhere killed me with knives and sticks, and the fact that I did evil was making people spurn, and I wanted to be a good person again." ”
Qin Guang said: "It seems that you are really an evil ghost who can change evil and turn from good, tell you, if you are a good ghost for another three years, I will definitely report to Yin Tianzi to make you an official and a half-job." ”
Three years later, the king of the Ten Palaces summoned him again and said, "In the past three years, you have indeed changed from evil to good and done a lot of good deeds. ”
Since then, he has been wearing a black linen coat, and he has gone out to patrol various places in the middle of the night, making secret visits, and reporting to the Yin Tianzi for his good deeds, and Judge Cui for his evil deeds, and arresting many, many evil ghosts. As for the "peace in the world" on his head, it is because of the hope of black impermanence after seeing the eighteen layers of hell.
Since then, when black and white impermanence walks in the world, he is very tolerant of good people and poor people in life, and even helps them fulfill their last wishes before death, and if they encounter injustices, they will also help without violating the rules.
As for the great evildoers and unscrupulous people in their lifetime, the treatment methods are very rough.
Although black and white impermanence seems vicious, the heart is far more kind than most people in the world.
Black and white impermanence, also known as impermanence of the second master, Fan is not saved, there is an allusion in this, the two were a pair of good brothers before their lives, called "seven masters" and "eight masters". It is said that Xie Fan and his wife have been married since childhood, and they are like brothers and sisters. One day, the two walked together under the Nantai Bridge,
It will rain, the seventh master wants the eighth master to wait for a while, go home to get an umbrella, unexpectedly after the seventh master leaves, the thunderstorm pours, the river surges, the eighth master does not want to miss the appointment, but because of his short stature, he was drowned in the water, and soon the seventh master took the umbrella and rushed to come, the eighth master has disappeared, the seventh master is in pain, and hanged on the bridge pillar (so many white impermanence images are stretched out with a long red tongue). Lord Yama was so faithful that he ordered them to arrest the lawbreakers in front of the city god. Some people say that Xie Bi'an (Bai impermanence) is to reward the gods and be safe; Fan is not saved (black impermanence), that is, those who break the law will not be saved.
The "world is peaceful" means that if you see black impermanence, then all the bad people will be well-behaved. Because black impermanence is aggressive by nature and very straightforward, the wicked, traitors, and evil ghosts are afraid of him when they see him.
There is a story about a very vicious, well-known thief who did all kinds of evil, and did all the bad things in his life. One day he was robbing a poor man, and the poor man ran away. He chased after him, and then both fell off the cliff, and after the two became ghosts, the bandits were very angry. said that the poor man had harmed him, so he continued to chase and cut the poor, and then Hei Wuchang saw it, and leveled him with three punches and two kicks, so that he could be punished. So far, all the bad people have not dared to do bad things in front of him when they see him, and they have all become obedient, so "the world is peaceful".
Legend has it that a long, long time ago, a poor father and son lived in a small town outside Fengdu. Dad is in his 50s and makes a living as a mason. The son is in his 30s, dark and strong, but he is idle every day stealing chickens and dogs, and the people in the town hate him very much.
Later, this son also contracted the vice of gambling, and he was uncomfortable if he didn't gamble for a day, not only losing all his father's hard-earned money, but also often robbing the people in order to raise money. After a long time, he has become a well-known villain, and Dad can't control it even if he wants to.
Finally one day, his son lost gambling and lost his eyes, so he went to the house to rummage through the cabinets to find valuable things to mortgage, but nothing came out, and he was so angry that he smashed the house into a mess. The father was in a hurry, and in the pulling fight, he accidentally beat his son to death...... Because of his resentment, the son turned into a ghost and continued to do evil in the world, which caused the whole town to complain......
A few years later, the ghost of his son suddenly repented and felt that he had done a lot of wrong things in his life, so he returned home to say goodbye to his father: "I am willing to go to hell to be punished to pay for my sins in life, and I hope to be a good ......person in the next life."
Sure enough, after the son arrived in the underworld, he took the initiative to ask to go to the eighteenth layer of hell, and was punished by sawing hands for gambling, disemboweling and intestines for being lazy, and doing dirty work...... But he sincerely atoned for his sins without complaint, and all this was seen by the king of Hades and the judges......
Exactly three years later, this son has been reborn, and the judge is very pleased to let him go to reincarnation and become a new human being......
Fan Wusu and Xie Bi'an's life-and-death friends.
In a poor and remote village, a family surnamed Fan gave birth to a seventh son, because he was too poor, the child's mother thought that he would not be able to raise him, so she named him Fan Wusu - this child is the son who was reincarnated.
Fan Wusu had just grown up to the age of three, and a major flood in his hometown caused his parents and brothers to lose their lives, but he was lucky to survive. Since then, an orphan has had to beg everywhere in order to survive, and has suffered all the hardships of the world since he was a child.
When Fan Wusu grew up to be a teenager, he was dark and short in appearance and fierce in appearance, but he was honest and bold, and there were many poor children around him. At the same time, I also met a new friend - Xie Bi'an, who has a fair face, a slender figure, and good facial features. The two brothers hit it off at first sight and had similar temperaments, so they worshiped as righteous brothers and begged together from then on......
Later, the yamen was quick to arrest, Xie Bi'an read the notice first because he knew how to read, and then went back to discuss with Fan Wuxuan: "We are young and powerful, and we have never been afraid of the wicked and evil, and it is not a way to beg for food for a long time." It's better to take this opportunity to eat official food, maybe you will have a better future in the future......" Fan Wuxu agreed as soon as he heard it. In addition, I passed the interview very smoothly.
From then on, the brothers wore official uniforms and long knives at their waists, patrolling the streets every day to maintain law and order, and the bandits in the mountains were so frightened that they did not dare to come out to rob again. Gradually, the two were respected by the people and respected by the officials.
One day, the county commander sent Fan Wusu and Xie Bi'an out to deliver the official document. On the way, it suddenly rained heavily, and the brothers hid in a bridge to avoid the rain. Unexpectedly, after a long time, the rain not only did not stop, but also became heavier and heavier.
Fan Wusu was worried about making a mistake, so he asked Xie Bi'an to run home to get an umbrella, and agreed: "I'll wait for you here, see you or leave!" Xie Bi'an ran home, but as soon as he entered the house, he had an accident - his stomach suddenly cramped, and he couldn't move...... There was no way, he had to go to bed to rest first, lay down for a while, and fell asleep......
As for Fan Wuxu's side, because the rain was too heavy, the water under the bridge was so high that it was about to flood his shoulders...... However, he refused to move the place, for fear that Xie Bi'an would not find him after he came...... So he stood motionless under the bridge with an official document in his hand......
When Xie Bi'an woke up, the rain had stopped, and he hurriedly ran under the bridge to take a look-Fan Wuxuan had already died with his hands on the stone pier and his eyes wide open......
Xie Bi'an cried loudly, thinking that he had killed his brother, and after finishing the funeral for Fan Wusheng, he also hanged himself in front of the grave......
In the underworld, Xie Bi'an and Fan Wusu met at Nai He Bridge, and the two hugged their heads and cried. Both Meng Po and the judge already knew about the deep friendship between the two before their deaths, and they were very moved.
On the order of the king of Hades, the judge announced on the spot: Fan Wusu sealed the black impermanence, wore black clothes and a black hat, and embroidered four big characters on the hat "Catching you", specifically responsible for catching evil ghosts. Because Fan Wusu was drowned, his appearance showed people with a swollen appearance. Xie Bi'an sealed Bai Impermanence, wore white clothes and white hats, and wrote the four words "You are also here", specifically responsible for attracting good ghosts. Because he hanged himself, he showed people with his mouth and long tongue. Since then, the brothers have become ghosts in the underworld......
"It is said that this Bai Wuchang also has the story of marrying a wife," Pu Xingwen continued.
I don't know how many years later, one day, the judge sent Bai Wuchang to Shizhu County to handle a public case. Bai Wuchang received the order and successfully completed the task with the assistance of the county god of Shizhu County.
Just as Bai Wuchang was about to get up and leave, Lord Chenghuang whispered to him, "Do you want to marry a daughter-in-law?" After saying that, he dragged him to the door of a poor house......
The family's surname is Cai, the eldest daughter Cai Xiaomei lives in her mother's house with two children because she is widowed, and the youngest daughter Cai Xiaohong is just seventeen years old and has not yet married. Bai Wuchang took a fancy to the handsome Cai Xiaohong at a glance, and secretly really moved the idea of getting married......
Back in the underworld, Bai Wuchang told the king of Hades everything, saying that he was willing to marry Cai Xiaohong as his wife, and the king of Hades approved. But when it came to the judge's investigation, it was bad, Cai Xiaohong still had fifty years of life! Bai Wuchang was very depressed, and he couldn't forget it in his heart......
It didn't take long for Bai Wuchang to suddenly find a particularly familiar woman at Nai He Bridge, with two children by her side. Take a closer look, it turns out to be Cai Xiaohong's sister Cai Xiaomei!
Bai Wuchang hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Why did you come here suddenly?" Has anything happened in the family? Cai Xiaomei cried and told her experience: On the Qingming Festival, she took her two children to the mountain to go to her husband's grave, but unexpectedly, during the heavy rain, the landslide killed herself and her children...... The family at the foot of the mountain is safe......
After listening to this, Bai Wuchang thought to himself: "Their sisters look very similar, could it be that this is the will of heaven...... I can marry her!" Meng Po next to her already knew Bai Wuchang's thoughts, so she took the initiative to step forward to talk to the media, but Cai Xiaomei was shy but did not refuse......
Soon, the Difu organized a lively wedding for Bai Wuchang and Cai Xiaomei......
After getting married, Cai Xiaomei took Bai Wuchang to meet her father and mother in the yang world once, so that they could rest assured that they were living well and happily in the underworld......
Since then, Daddy Cai in the yang world has told the story of his eldest daughter whenever he meets people, and has also raised money everywhere to build a "Palace of Impermanence" on Pingdu Mountain in Fengdu City, which contains statues of Bai Impermanence and his wife and two children, and has enjoyed the fireworks in the world for generations.
The thing that fell out of the wanted warrant didn't seem to be an ordinary wanted warrant, if at this time, Su Ling still felt that this was just a thing that made her understand the ghosts of the underworld, and she didn't believe it when she was killed, it felt like he had already given her the deed of sale?
Could it be that he did so much just to tell her stories?
