Chapter 62: The Past of Man 2
Xiao Daogu soon stopped crying, because Yuan Yu was grimacing at her.
Yuan Yu is not a person who can make trouble, so the first time he made a face, it was not good at all.
Xiao Daogu bit her lip and pulled the corner of Xichen's clothes and didn't let go, looked at Yuan Yu with tears in her eyes, and finally broke into laughter.
After coaxing Xiao Daogu, Xichen and Xiyun, who had been silent for a long time, both looked at Old Man Xiao.
At this time, it is still mysterious, only the second child cherishes the wind.
Old man Xiao turned around and poured a cup of tea, his hand reached his mouth, but he didn't open his mouth, the tea cup was so stiff at the corner of his mouth, and the water vapor rose, making Old Man Xiao's face a little blurry.
In the end, Old Man Xiao put the tea in his hand on the table again, and said faintly: "The third child mentioned the lonely bamboo floating coffin today...... Do you know where the word lone bamboo comes from? ”
Xichen and Xiyun frowned and glanced at each other, and both shook their heads.
"Lone bamboo, also written as Yao bamboo, there was a country in the early Shang Dynasty, the name of the country is Lone Bamboo, the mystery of the Lone Bamboo Country, and it has survived for thousands of years. In the texts of my Daomen, there is almost no record of these, so it is reasonable that those people in the Quanzhen Sect can't find them. It can't be said that it can't be found at all, at least in various historical materials and gazetteers in the world, you can see the shadow of the word Lone Bamboo scattered, but it's just a few words, these records are basically useless for the Quanzhen Sect looking for missing disciples.
For example, "Historical Records Suoyin" contains: "Gaotang March Bingyin (1027 ago) sealed the lonely bamboo...... It's for the Lonely Bamboo Marquis! ”
Such a few words have always cast a veil of mystery over the word Lone Bamboo, but the Lone Bamboo Country has walked out of two sages, Bo Yi Shuqi.
In the past, King Wu destroyed Shang, and Uncle Boyi ate Zhou Li in shame and died of picking roses.
And about the lonely bamboo floating coffin, "Sou Shen Ji" once contained a text that I don't know whether it is true or false, in the first year of Emperor Guanghe of Lingling, the people of western Liaoning saw that there was a floating coffin in Liaoshui, and wanted to break it, and the people in the coffin said: "I am the brother of Boyi, and the lonely bamboo is also Jun."
There are rumors in later generations that the lonely bamboo floating coffin will appear in the world, and if it encounters it, it will die.
About the text of the lonely bamboo floating coffin, the world can know, there is only that, these words have also been passed down for thousands of years, so it is absolutely impossible to find out the true face of the lonely bamboo floating coffin from these wild historical words, therefore, they will turn to the mysterious department of the public Song City, you should know that there are some things in the hands of the state, even if it is my Daomen, it is impossible to get a glimpse of one or two, any religious means and forces, in front of a generation, are insignificant! ”
Xichen and Xiyun's brows furrowed even tighter: "But, what does this have to do with the second child?" ”
Old Man Xiao's face gradually changed: "For thousands of years, the word Lone Bamboo has always been like that mythical story, which clearly exists in the classics, but there is not a trace of the existence of Lone Bamboo Country in this world!" It is like a fantasy, 73 years, that is, the year when the chaos was the worst, that year, a villager went to Qiugang to dig stones and accidentally dug up a bronze engraved with the word "bamboo", this incident, as if it was a sign of something, that is, three years later, Tangshan collapsed...... You may ask, what is the relationship between the Tangshan disaster and Lone Bamboo?
Oh, for thousands of years, the capital of the country of Guzhu has become a mystery, but after the appearance of this bronze, many signs later pointed to the ruins of the capital of the country of Guzhu to Tangshan......"
Old man Xiao lowered his head and couldn't see his expression clearly: "Boss and third, you two may be curious about why I know this!" Then, it's time to talk about the second child, the third child, you and the fourth girl are the masters of the 78 years, and when you came, the second child was already in the mountain gate, right? ”
Xichen was a little shocked and nodded: "Yes, when I entered the mountain gate, compared to the diligence of the senior brother, the second senior brother was only half-asleep all day long, the wine did not leave his hand, and it was not an exaggeration to get drunk and dream of death, but then Xichen was very strange. The Dao method in the door, Senior Brother Xifeng has never practiced, but when it comes to Dao Fa attainments, no one in my senior brother can match it! The most surprising thing is that the unruly Senior Brother Xifeng is extremely fond of Xiaoyu, since Xiaoyu came, Senior Brother Xifeng has stopped drinking, and tested Xiaoyu's Taoism every day, and he is more diligent than his master......"
Old man Xiao, who had his eyes slightly closed, sighed with a complicated expression, and suddenly smiled, his smile was full of bitterness: "When I met the second child...... I remember that the year I met the second child happened to be in 76, in the Fengnan area of Tangshan, that is, the area where the landslide was most powerful...... According to the people of the time, before the collapse of the earth, the visions were frequent, the fish in the river jumped out like death, the river rose wildly, there was no place to even dry the nets, the bats and flying insects in the sky were like dark clouds, covering the sky and the sun, and the big rats carried the small mice in groups, and the headless scurrying around the yard......
You all know that when you encounter such a thing, it is impossible for us to sit idly by and ignore the people in our decent Taoist sect and Buddhism, because every time there is such a great disaster, the Yin Gate will be opened, as a person in the Daomen, no one can escape from this matter, the government manages the living, but it can't help the dead, once the Yin Soul has too many grievances, it will regenerate a big accident, that is, at that time, the teacher first learned about the so-called mysterious department.
When I arrived at the place of Fengnan, it was night, and for miles away, I could hear the cries of the whole city, the cries of hundreds of thousands of people, can you imagine what kind of sound it was? It can break people's souls, and you can't even tell whether the cry is a person crying or the unjust soul crying!
The Yin soldiers used the Tao to escort the souls of the dead into the underworld, which was not new at all.
But there were many dead people, and the Yin soldiers couldn't escort them, so the division walked along the canal that Fengnan was no longer looking like for half a night, and the strange thing was not told to you by the division, only one important thing.
As the teacher remembers, it was about one o'clock in the morning, and after working for most of the night, my body was somewhat tired, but at that time, except for the tents distributed by the state, in the ruins, you couldn't find a place to sleep at all.
Thinking about the teacher, if you walk for a while, if you can't see the people of the government, you will fall everywhere, hey, it's weird, it's weird, on the edge of the canal full of silt and dead fish, there is an extra house, outside the house, there are a bunch of black figures, a good moon, I can't see what those black figures look like, a bunch of black figures, but it's quiet in the night, I can't even hear a panting sound......"
