The Zen master sighed, when I was a child, I was taken by the master to secretly go up the mountain to worship my ancestors......

"Ancestor worship?"

"It's the Patriarch!" The Shouwang Zen Master sighed for a long time, "Patriarch Hanshan is a high-ranking monk, but he only lived to be seventy-eight years old and passed away. It is said that after his death, his soul floated to the Taiqing Palace again, and turned into a stone monk on the Laoshan Mountain behind the Taiqing Palace, peeping at the movements of the Taiqing Palace day and night.

When we went, sure enough, there was a stone on the top of the mountain on the left side of the Taiqing Palace, which resembled a sitting monk, and there was a screen-like boulder on the side, and some people on the mountain said that it was a fimos. Master Hanshan, who has turned into a stone monk, is hiding behind the screen, ashamed to face the concubines and monks who helped him build the temple at the beginning, and on the other hand, he is still quietly watching the rise and fall of the Taiqing Palace, in order to rebuild the temple one day, and then compare with the Taiqing Palace. In fact, it's just a foolish man and a foolish woman! …… What's more, there is a thousand-year-old dragon elm with auspicious meaning on the opposite side, but it was planted by a real person surnamed Li. ”

Although Zhang Lianfu is a lineage of Fangxian Dao, the Taoist system is closer to Yan Junping's Wenshi faction, the so-called "Junping has ruins, but it is in Yuchengkuma." There is no branch stone, and the divination platform is empty. The broken reeds are obtained, and the small temple has no artemisia. Since the rise and fall of the self-expected, Mr. does not need to guess. Yan Junping, also known as Yan Ziling, lived in seclusion in the well of Chengdu when Emperor Cheng of the Han Dynasty, took divination as his profession, preached Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching, and benefited everyone. Set up a museum to teach the disciples to be proud, preached "Laozi" and "Zhuangzi" in Pingle Mountain, Pixian County, and wrote the prophecy of "Wang Mang obeys the punishment and Guangwu Zhongxing" on this mountain, predicted "Wang Mang's usurpation of power" more than 20 years in advance, and helped "Guangwu Zhongxing". It's a pity that because Yang Xiong went out of the mountain to assist Wang Mang, he finally disappeared from his old friend.

Nowadays, Chengdu's Zhiji Stone Street is named after the "Zhiji Tianshi" left on the street, which is related to Yan Junping. He deduced the way of Taiyi and Yuanqi from Tianshi, and left a piece of "Junping Finger" and a "Taiyuan Sutra" written by his protégé Yang Xiong after his ascension......

The Zen master casually recited a passage: "The master of the Tao, covering the heavens and the earth, outlines the four directions, the eight poles, the height is unboundless, the depth is unfathomable, and all things are naturally vigorous." It is faithful and weak, ploughing and eating, often stopping at the foot, and returning to the nameless. i.e. a return to nature.

The reason why the mountains are high and the abyss is deep is that the beasts walk with them and the birds fly with them. The sun and the moon are bright, and the calendar is traveling. Lin swims, the phoenix soars, the husband's vitality is in the heaven and earth, the periphery is full, and there is no truth; The dwelling air of all things is also interconnected, and it is inseparable. Human breathing is often with qi, a breath is not in harmony with the disease, breathing is not continuous, death is dead, like a fish can not go to the water is also ....... ”

Zhang Lianfu is gone, and Li Zhexuan, who revitalized Laoshan Road, is also very smart and abnormal in his childhood, and he never forgets to read, and he was selected in the field examination at the age of 15 and ascended to the Jinshidi. However, five dynasties and ten countries, the world is in turmoil, there is no place for Confucianism, he first entered Luofu Mountain to learn the Tao, during this period, the Shangqing scriptures passed to the north by Maoshan Sect have been incorporated into the Lingbao, the Three Emperors and other scriptures, and integrated with the Louguan Tao in the north. Taoist priest Su Xuanlang once lived in seclusion in Maoshan to learn Taoism, and he had to live a true secret. During the Kaihuang period, when he went to Qingxia Valley in Luofu Mountain, he inadvertently obtained the essence of Xiao Xian Weng and Ge Hong's cultivation and alchemy, cultivated Dadan, and called himself Qingxiazi.

Su Xuanlang wrote "Taiqing Stone Wall Records" and so on. In view of the complexity and concealment of the three books of "Ancient Dragon and Tiger Sutra", "Zhou Yi Shen Tong Deed", and "Jinbi Hidden Secret", he compiled and wrote "Dragon and Tiger Golden Night Return Dantong Yuan Theory", which was refined by Shen Dan in his heart. Nine years of inward viewing, rushing to lift immortals, Luofu Dan Road, to the Tang Dynasty developed rapidly, became a trend, far-reaching influence. Li Zhexuan also benefited a lot, after leaving Luofu, in order to avoid the rebellion, he traveled north along the border corner and visited the famous mountain of Dandao. Finally, in the first year of Tang Zhaozong Tianyu, he came to Laoshan Taiqing Palace.

At that time, most of the Taoist priests in Laoshan Taiqing Palace belonged to the Maoshan Sect of Shangqing, and the way of practice was not much different from the Taoist priests of various sects of Lingbao in Jiangnan and other places, so after communication and exchanges, several Taoist priests in the palace were very close to Li Zhexuan, so they did everything possible to keep him to live in Laoshan. At this time, Li Zhexuan has been traveling abroad for several years, and he feels that he should sort out and summarize what he has seen and heard over the years as soon as possible, coupled with the kind invitation of the Taoist priest of Taiqing Palace, so he decided to stay, and he built a new "Three Emperor Palace", which made Taiqing Palace more prosperous.

Since then, Li Zhexuan has been abbot of the "Three Emperors Palace", Taoist priests Zhang Daochong and Li Zhiyun have abbots of the "Sanqing Palace", and Zheng Daokun and Wang Zhicheng have abbots of the "Sanguan Palace". He devoted himself to the study of Taoist practice theory, on the basis of inheriting his predecessors' "Taishang Huangting Interior Jingjing" and "Taishang Huangting Exterior Jingjing", combined with his own practice experience, he wrote "Taishang Huangting Inner Jingyu Sutra" and "Taishang Huangting Exterior Jingyu Jing", for a time, Laoshan Taiqing Palace Dojo was famous, and many Taoists from all over the country came to defect, promoting the development of Laoshan Taoism.

Three years after Zhou Taizu Guangshun, 106-year-old Li Zhexuan heard that the capital had not rained for more than five months, the crops had not been harvested, and the local plague was epidemic. So he left Laoshan and went to the capital to treat the people. Li Zhexuan saved many people with Fu Shui, and because he was cured of illness, he was called a "miracle doctor" by the common people, and he became famous for a while. Guo Wei, the Taizu of the Later Zhou Dynasty, who was worried about the disaster, heard that a high road had come to the capital, and hurriedly issued an edict ordering Li Zhexuan to pray for rain. Legend has it that not long after Li Zhexuan performed a spell to ask for rain, it rained heavily for three consecutive days, and the people were thunderous with joy. As the rain fell, the plague in the city gradually disappeared. Later, Zhou Taizu summoned Li Zhexuan and wanted to reward him heavily, Li Zhexuan refused to accept it, and Taizu immediately enshrined him as "Daohua Puji Zhenren", and respected him as a "national teacher", from the emperor down, to pay full respect.

Six years later, Li Zhexuan soared in the Taiqing Palace of Laoshan and lived to be 112 years old. Now in the northeast corner of the Three Emperors Palace, the master also pointed out to the watchman Zen Master to see a large stone valley, covered with natural caves of different sizes, shaped like the Big Dipper. This is the altar of the Taoist priest of Taiqing Palace, called "worship platform". Whenever the tour guide leads the team through this scenic spot, he will always tell the tourists: "Legend has it that Li Zhexuan, a Taoist priest of the Taiqing Palace in the Tang Dynasty, worshiped and cultivated the truth here, and saw the red light falling from the sky, so he became an immortal." There are also stone carvings on the boulder of "Li Zhenren, the ancestor of the palace, Zhexuan, Shou Zhongzi, the edict of the Zhongzi, the Daohua Puji Zhenren, in the first year of Tang Tianyou, Jiazi went to the palace to worship the Beidou here", leaving countless reveries for people. It is said that Li Zhexuan's bones were buried in the sun of the mountain behind the Taiqing Palace, and the tomb still exists.

After Li Zhenren soared, it was Liu Ruozhuo, a real person from Huagai, who took over the Laoshan Dao system. Since he was a child, he became a monk in Yaozhen Cave in Luofu Mountain, and worshiped Li Zhexuan's senior brother Qingjing Zhenren as his teacher to cultivate the Tao. In the second year of Tongguang in the Later Tang Dynasty, Jiashen, Laoshan came to the east to build a thatched hermitage on the south side of the Taiqing Palace, which was used for the statue of Lao Tzu and practiced alone. At that time, there were many fierce beasts in Laoshan Mountain, often haunted and hurt people, Liu Ruozhuo used the curse forbidden road to drive the tiger and wolf, and eliminated the harm for the local mountain people, and the mountain people felt the grace of their benefit, and gave a plaque to the thatched nunnery where he lived "to drive the tiger and wolf hermitage", and the descendants referred to it as "the tiger hermitage".

After Li Zhexuan's ascension, Liu Ruozhuo was supported by the Taoist priests of the Taiqing Palace and entered the Taiqing Palace. Serving the founding emperor of the Song Dynasty Zhao Kuangyin ascended the throne, on the one hand to the Buddha, on the other hand, the edict invited Liu Ruozhuo Jinjing into the Hajj, the so-called Song Jianlong first year Gengshen, Taizu Zhao Kuangyin heard the clumsy for the former dynasty and the latter Han Gaozu Liu Zhiyuan, Zhaojing into the Hajj, talk about the Xuan Decree, Taizu Dayue, the edict of the canopy Zhenren, stay in Beijing to preach.

He was named "Huagai Zhenren" and wanted to stay in the court, in essence, in order to suppress the Great Xiangguo Temple. Liu Ruozhuo insisted on begging to return to the mountain, and Taizu immediately ordered to return to the mountain to rebuild the Taiqing Palace, and build the Shangqing Palace and Shangyuan Palace as Liu Ruozhuo's pavilion. When the Shangyuan Palace was completed, Zhao Kuangyin was no longer alive, and his younger brother Zhao Guangyi set up the year name of "Taiping Xingguo", and Shangyuan Palace was named "Taiping Xingguoyuan", which is now Taiping Palace. After this construction, the reputation of Laoshan Road has vibrate, and the people from all over the world have come to vote, and Laoshan Road has prospered unprecedentedly when it is unified. In the book "Cave Heaven Blessed Land" compiled by Dan Dao in the Song Dynasty, Liu Ruozhuo's two pavilions were listed as the sixth and seventh blessed places respectively. Jin Tai and Wu Chen, Changchun Zhenren Mound came here, endowed with twenty poems, engraved in the white dragon cave in the north of the palace, envious.

However, once a son of heaven and a courtier, because of his gratitude for the support of the Song Dynasty, Laoshan Dao has always served the country. Until the second year of Xiangxing in the Southern Song Dynasty, after the capture of Hangzhou by Meng Yuanbing, the Southern Song Dynasty perished, and the concubines Xie Li and Xie An sisters pretended to be fisherwomen, fled to Laoshan by boat, and also received the protection of Laoshan Taoist priests, and became monks in the Taiping Palace incognito.

At the same time, the period between the Jin and Yuan dynasties and the fall of the Southern Song Dynasty was a period of suffering in which China's great subway rode vertically and horizontally, with blood and fire, and the people were devastated, and it was also the true way...... The heyday of the Seven Sons of Quanzhen.

In the first year of Jin Shizong's Dading, Wang Chongyang dug the tomb of the living dead in Zhongnan Mountain and sat in the tomb. A few years later, he became enlightened, filled the tomb of the living dead, moved to Liu Jiang Village, and practiced with Yu Chan and Li Gong. At this time, Wang Chongyang remembered the revelation of "go to the East China Sea quickly, throw Tan and catch horses" when Liquan County met the true immortals again, and burned Liu Jiangcun Mao'an on April 26 of the seventh year of Dading, passed through the Qing Palace on Beibi Mountain, and hung the tomb of Qin Prime Minister Lü Buwei, the tomb of Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty, the tomb of Emperor Liu Xiuyuan of the Han Dynasty, the Sima clan of the Western Jin Dynasty, the queen of Chen of the Southern Dynasty, and the tomb of the queen of Li of the Southern Tang Dynasty, and arrived in Ninghaizhou, Shandong Province on the 18th day of the seventh month of the leap month, and began the preaching career of "throwing Tan and catching horses".

After Wang Chongyang's death, his disciples escorted his remains to be buried in his old residence. Ma Yu attacked the Quanzhen Sect and established a Taoist temple in its place, with the word "Zuting" in handwriting. Subsequently, Wang Chongyang's disciple Wang Chuyi played, please build a spiritual void at his site, and Qiu Chuji asked to change the name to Chongyang Palace. Yuan Shizu was renamed Chongyang Wanshou Palace, ranking first among the three ancestral courts of the Quanzhen Dao.

When Wang Chongyang was claustrophobic in the tomb of the living dead, I am afraid that he could not imagine how much influence Chongyang Palace would have in the Northern Dandao of the Yuan Dynasty in the future. During the reign of Yuan Shizu, Chongyang Palace was renamed "Chongyang Wanshou Palace". Enjoying the honorific titles of "the ancestral court of the world" and "the holy land of the whole truth", the golden plaque given by the emperor of the Yuan Dynasty hanging above the mountain gate is still clear and decipherable. This is mostly due to Qiu Chuji......
