Mao Zuwang was punished for a year of introspection in the inner wall of the sect because of his recklessness, but Mao Zuwang was paranoid by nature, so he refused to face the wall, so that Zuihou left the Maoshan Sect, and since then he has embarked on the road of no return to find the living dead, wash away his shame, and avenge Ma Guiyuan. Not long after Mao Zuwang left, Ma Guiyuan knew that he could not become a master in this life, so he also left Maoshan and returned to his hometown in the north, married a wife and had children, spread out his branches, and taught the knowledge he had learned to his children according to his children's talents.

More than 20 years have passed, Ma Guiyuan began to become famous because of his actions such as helping local and surrounding people to heal, fortune-telling, divination, exorcism, feng shui, etc., and because he was in the north, he was respectfully called "Northern Ma"; And in the south, there is a master of drawing talismans to exorcise evil spirits, catching ghosts and subduing demons, this person's surname is Mao, but no one knows his birth origin, this person catches ghosts mostly in the southern region, because his ability to catch demons is too clever, and he is particularly high-profile, so he is called "Nanmao". The reason why it is called Nanmao and Beima is largely divided according to the region, so far the reputation of Nanmao and Beima began to take shape. ”

Writing this, some people must ask, at that time, Taoism and Buddhism were so prosperous, Mao Zuwang and Ma Guiyuan were just personal acts, weishenme was able to achieve such a great achievement, is it a bit exaggerated? The sloppy Taoist's answer, I personally think it is very pertinent, and I will use my language logic here to paraphrase the old Taoist statement:

First of all, Mao Zuwang and Ma Guiyuan belong to individual behaviors, not to any religious group, which is the most important point. You think, if a certain family encounters an evil **, if it is a monk and a Taoist priest, use the knowledge he has learned to drive away evil spirits and ghosts, and the people will be grateful to Dade afterwards, but it is normal for monks and Taoists to do this thing, just like the driver can drive, the accountant will settle accounts, and the official will hold money is a truth; But Mao Zuwang and Ma Guiyuan are personal behaviors, a very ordinary person, can do these things, then in the local area, it is very rare, and these two people are often able to get rid of the disease, and in some aspects even do more than the general Taoist priests and monks, this is the most admired by the people, after all, these two people had the opportunity to become the head of the Maoshan Sect, but it was a coincidence that caused these two to return to the people.

Secondly, it is due to the personalities of these two people. Ma Guiyuan Mu Ne, not good at interpersonal relationships, so in addition to himself, few people know that he studied art in Maoshan for many years, after all, he went out under the banner of traveling, he didn't say, others don't know, in addition to the folk fabrication of the common people, only to achieve the title of North Malaysia; And Mao Zuwang is not to mention, he is so arrogant that he is so arrogant, he does everything to say the same, and he can't tolerate other people's words at all, that is, we are now people who can pretend to be B in their mouths, but people are really capable, so it is not too much to pretend, in fact, Mao Zuwang is not pretending, he is the kind of arrogant character, but the people are not so good, they have the ability, they have few words, and their character is arrogant.

zuihou is the accumulation and precipitation of time. The Mao family and the Ma family were originally engaged in folk art by Mao Zuwang and Ma Guiyuan, but they did not let this craft be lost because of the end of their lives, but taught it to their children and grandchildren, so that their sons inherited their father's business and continued to engage in this craft. Several generations or more than ten generations have been engaged in this industry, and after the accumulation of these times, the title of Nanmao and Beima can be deeply rooted in the folk, so that some of the film and television dramas we watched when we were children will involve the name of Nanmao and Beima, such as "I Have a Date with a Zombie", "Ghost Hunting Family Carnival", etc., which are not groundless, targetless, but objective.

After listening to Lao Dao's initial narration, Brother Cao scratched his big head and said something that made Lao Dao beat up, "Dao Chief, my surname is Cao, what does it have to do with Nanmao and Beima?" ”

This is angry with the old Tao, it is really blowing his beard and staring, and he almost smashed Lao Cao's unenlightened head with the wine gourd in his hand. "Cao Jushi, do you have a person surnamed Ma in your family?" "My mother's surname is Ma, what's wrong?" Lao Cao hadn't reacted yet, "Then what kind of profession is your mother engaged in?" "Funeral supplies and look at feng shui." Brother Cao replied 1510, after Brother Cao finished speaking, the fourth aunt began to be helpless, this is a typical elm pimple head.

"Brother Cao, let's listen carefully to the Taoist master finish the story, and then say hello?" I'm really addicted to it, Lao Cao nodded helplessly, after all, he still gives me a lot of face.

Lao Dao didn't bother to explain to Brother Cao, and after a few sips of wine, he continued to tell the legendary story of Nanmao and Beima.

The second reunion of the Mao family and the Ma family should be more than twenty years later. That year, a large-scale plague broke out in Shanxi, after the plague, there were a lot of zombies similar to the living dead, killing people everywhere and sucking blood, the local capable people moved their families, and the only way to seek refuge was to run to the local general flag or the hundred households (a name for the soldiers), anyway, the local tyrants and inferior gentry did not collect taxes at that time, so this group of people had enough funds to escape, and all the taxes were pressed on the people, so the people ran to the places where the soldiers took refuge, and it was also helpless, It can be seen that "Xing, the people are suffering; Death, the people suffer! How plausible that is.

After the study of the local Qianzong and the garrison, he invited the Dongchang and prepared to report to the imperial court, but the approval was actually solved by himself, and after discussing with the local government Yin in desperation, the Qianzong and the garrison had no choice but to discuss with the local government Yin, and decided to take those big households to open the knife, let these local gentry and local tyrants donate, and then use the money to hire some monks and Taoists and folk magic masters, in addition to treating the people who were bitten by zombies, the most important thing is to exterminate the zombies, and give the people a stable day. And among these masters invited, they include Nanmao and Beima.

However, at that time, the big households were basically running away, and Fu Yin used all his strength to make up less than two thousand taels of silver, and then arranged for the soldiers to beg grandpa to tell grandma to invite these masters. There were a total of seven groups of people, namely the Jingkong Great Monk of Jinchan Temple and several of his apprentices, Huibao Zen Master of Baohua Temple and several of his apprentices, Zhang Daoren and his disciples of Tianlongguan, Zhou Shitai and her apprentices of Jingyue Nunnery, Ma Daochang and his disciples of Quanzhen Sect, and the rest were Mao Zuwang and his two sons and Ma Guiyuan and his sons and daughters. Through these people, it can be seen that in the past 20 years, the prestige of the Ma family and the Mao family has been so high that they can be on an equal footing with the people of these Taoist temples, which is the so-called brand effect of modern people.
