Chapter 184: Hakka Culture
The courtyard is rustic, and several stone lions seem to be very hideous.
A large marble archway, with a line of very simple font written, Wuyi Mountain Daoguan, these words.
The handwriting is very powerful, and it looks like it was written by a great Confucian.
"It turns out that this is the legendary Wuyi Mountain Gym, it is rare to visit here, and now I am fortunate to see the unique scenery and beauty, which really makes people's hearts full of a very high sense of awe."
Runzhi said so, and when he spoke, there was a classical atmosphere between his eyebrows, presumably remembering something very mysterious.
This woman's face is really very handsome, and even the two disciples guarding the gate of the gym are looking at this woman intently, as if they want to swallow this woman into their stomachs, which makes this beautiful woman very embarrassed.
As if for the embarrassment of the link, this beautiful woman said:
During the Three Kingdoms period, during the battle between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao in the Central Plains, some people began to migrate along the south, the farthest south to today's Annam, to the west to the poisonous north, the east of the Ottoman Empire, and to the north to the fertile steppe on the shore of Lake Baikal. During the period of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms and the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the Central Plains was full of wars, and the number of migrants to the southeast reached the most."
This beautiful woman almost talked endlessly, and most of the people didn't listen very carefully, they all stared more at the woman's face, and some of the lustful people stared at the woman's breasts as if they were salivating.
The stunningly beautiful woman deliberately pretended not to see the watchful gazes of these people, and continued:
After these large numbers of people from the Central Plains migrated to this Wuyi Mountain, they all took a fancy to the unique geographical conditions of Wuyi Mountain, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the birds and flowers are fragrant, so they began to settle down with the local residents on this land, in fact, this land began to settle down with the local residents since the establishment of Wuyue County in the Qin Dynasty, and there were fewer people living there, and most of the land was covered with this lush primeval forest. But the number of migratory people gradually increased, and the valleys among the many forests in this Wuyue land were reclaimed, rice crops were planted, and many people were fed, so that these populations continued to reclaim the land around Wuyi Mountain together with those who continued to move south during the early Yuan and Song dynasties, thus forming these two rare cultures, that is, Hakka culture and southern Fujian culture."
Runzhi was naturally very interested in the woman's many words, so he said:
"Indeed, what you said is right, in fact, this Hakka culture and southern Fujian culture are closely related to these southward migrations. In fact, not only that, among these two major cultures, the Hakka culture is generally older than the southern Fujian culture, but the time of migration to the land of Wuyue is much later than the southern Fujian culture, and obviously the period when the southern Fujian culture really took root was in the Tang and Song dynasties, during this period, a large number of people who migrated to the land of Wuyue began to take "Fujian" as the name of this land, and found that this land is very closed, surrounded by mountains, the land for growing food is very limited, and the land is not as fertile as the Central Plains
Haozi saw that the two of them were moving out of these many serious topics to everyone as if they were telling a family tree, so he also joined in and said: Feiyang
"You say, naturally people know, but you don't know, as an important part of Chinese civilization, the formation process of this southern Fujian culture and Hakka culture is not only related to migration, and the adventure of doing business has a greater relationship, in fact, this southern Fujian culture comes from the Tang and Song dynasties of the sea adventure of the marine culture, and the Hakka culture is developing inland, forming a unique natural culture, so this Hakka culture is more similar to the Central Plains culture, and although the Hokkien culture originates from the Central Plains, but it integrates more marine culture, Because of their geographical factors, these two cultures have also become unique cultures in places such as Penghu East Fanryukyu."
This beautiful woman, walking with everyone, said, along a stone staircase, passed through this huge stone gate, and passed by several huge stone statues of Lao Tzu, and finally saw the many buildings of the Taoist hall not far away.
These buildings are all made of wood, but they are not the traditional courtyard houses, or Jiangnan garden-like buildings, but the round buildings like pillars, so there is a huge circular square and a circular high altar used to hold the French style.
Runzhi and the others saw this altar from afar, Runzhi pointed to the altar to everyone, and then said:
In fact, this altar is a place where many people who have migrated south regularly hold ancestor worship ceremonies, and every year on the occasion of the Qingming Festival and the Double Ninth Festival, these many Hakka people begin to gather the clansmen, and dance together in a mask of many Taoist priests, and when they utter some mysterious, incomprehensible spells, they feel a mysterious clan culture together. Through such rituals, many children begin to truly feel the presence of their ancestors and begin to have a great reverence for their ancestors."
The mysterious stunning woman and Runzhi walked in the forefront, attracting the attention of many Taoist priests, these young Taoist priests were very envious of Runzhi, they all thought that Runzhi had this beautiful woman, but they didn't know that Runzhi's two wives were far better than this woman.
The mysterious woman listened to what Runzhi said and began to continue:
In fact, this is just a appearance, the people perform this complex sacrifice in order to establish a spiritual connection with each other that surpasses that of animal humans, and in the process of this, they begin to discover each other's existence, confirm each other's existence, construct their relationships with each other, and begin to feel the care and pity from their ancestors, and the tragic and great spiritual and emotional identification with the same name from the people of the same clan, so that everyone begins to become a real person. Instead of a pack of wolf beasts."
Runzhi listened, and expressed his deep recognition and appreciation for this woman's words, and felt the strong cultural and spiritual atmosphere in this woman's heart.
Thinking about such a woman, she is really a strange woman in China, it is indeed rare, it is rare.
Runzhi thought so in his heart.
"This ritual is indeed extraordinary, and for so many people who have migrated south, these sacrifices are like summoning ancient ancestors who have crossed thousands of mountains and rivers to come here and be with the many people who have migrated here."
Runzhi said in a very emotional tone.
Runzhi and the woman walked into the hall step by step, generally enjoying the incomparably beautiful scenery around them in detail.
