Chapter 20: The Gate of Ten Thousand Beasts
I looked at the two of them in amazement, and thought to myself, why did she come? Looking at Tan Jian's face again, it was gloomy and indifferent, obviously not welcoming this woman.
Tan Blade whistled, and the little black meow who attacked me screamed, and retreated back into the darkness. I estimated that it was the Yin corpse poison left in my body that caused Xiao Hei's abnormal reaction, it seems that Tan Jian didn't brag, this black cat is really spiritual, and can see and hoarse some unclean things.
Shen Lan entered the office, sat down directly on the sofa to entertain guests, crossed a pair of slender legs, lazily looked at the layout of the office, and after a while, her eyes looked at me slightly, blinked, and said: "I don't see you for a day, like every three autumns, little handsome guy, miss me?" The corners of her eyes are slightly raised, charming and charming, very seductive.
People are all ** beautiful, I stared at her beautiful face, admired it for a moment, and didn't answer her call, but asked Tan Jian: "Boss, why is she here." "Although she is a beauty, I have already learned the femme fatale of this beauty, and I can only watch it from afar, not close.
Tan Jian lit a cigarette and didn't answer my question, but said to me, "Make tea for Miss Shen." ”
I was almost tossed to death by this woman, and I still make tea? I touched my nose, took out the best tea leaves of the office, hastily brewed a cup, and sent it with the tea foam. Shen Lan raised her eyebrows and smiled, "Make it bad." After speaking, he took a sip of tea, and this time said, "I'm here to take my boss to talk about business with the two." ”
Tan Jian said: "I made it clear enough last night. ”
The smile on the corner of Shen Lan's mouth slowly converged, her eyes seemed to flash with some kind of brilliance, and she said lightly: "However, I think some places are still very confused. I'm curious, Tan Jian, you are not a person who is afraid of things, why are you so disgusted with this business? ”
Tan Jian asked rhetorically: "I'm also curious, the disciple of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, who is also the number one person, how can he do things under such a person?" You are a tiger, do you know it? ”
Shen Lan shrugged her shoulders and said, "What did I do evil?" ”
Tan Jian said: "Didn't you burn those six people?" ”
Shen Lan smiled and said, "It's my hands and feet, but those people are extremely evil, and they are innocent, but it's a pity that the backstage is too hard, and the official can't move them for a while, so I have to do the right thing for heaven, what's the crime?" ”
It's a good way to do the right thing for heaven, but if everyone does it for heaven like this, then what good is the law? Countering violence with violence will only bring down the whole society. Although the six people did die unjustly, these words were said lightly from the mouth of such a big beauty, which was really uncomfortable.
Because you have a power that is incomprehensible to ordinary people, can you act recklessly? I have never seen Tan Jian abuse his abilities, he once said: There are gods with three feet above his head, and he is a person who deals with gods and ghosts, how dare he do evil?
Therefore, in the circle that Tan Jian is in, the more capable people are, the more they know how to restrain themselves. On the contrary, those who are unable to restrain themselves, do evil with this, cheat money and sex, are so-called masters in the eyes of most people, and in orthodox circles, such people are very despised.
The more capable people are, the more they know the cycle of heaven and the retribution of ghosts and gods, most of them will not act easily, they hide in the city, and live a life similar to ordinary people, such as Baozi Xi Shi, about this kind of person.
And Shen Lan in front of her has obviously broken away from the bottom line of this circle, if the people in this circle are hidden in the dark, then Shen Lan is walking in the sun openly. She can't say whether it's right or wrong to make such a choice, after all, everyone has the right to choose their own path.
However, her mistake was that she abused her abilities too much.
After Shen Lan finished speaking, Tan Jian glanced at her meaningfully and said, "What a way to do for heaven." So, when you cooperate with that person, you are also doing the right thing for heaven? ”
Shen Lan shrugged her shoulders and said, "No, it's just to make money." As she spoke, she smiled and winked at me, and said to me, "We are part-time workers, that person has money, and does things with people, little handsome guy, don't you say?" ”
I didn't pay attention to her, and I said don't do it, I seem to be all the way with you.
Tan Jian said coldly: "Don't hook up with my employees casually. ”
Shen Lan smiled and said, "Who asked you to invite the employee to be so good, okay, it's normal." Tan Jian, for you, this matter is a gesture, you might as well consider it, you can make money and do good deeds, why not? You may not know the character of our boss, he will not give up easily, and the financial resources behind this person are huge, although I can't deal with you now, he can still find someone else, and when the time comes, you will not have a peaceful life. ”
Tan Jian frowned when he heard this, and said, "I really think it's a fly." ”
"Yes." Shen Lan was not angry at all, her red lips hooked slightly, and said: "It's flies, flies have survived from ancient times to the present, and it is not easy to get rid of them." After speaking, she got up and threw me a flying kiss, then turned around and left the office, the red dress floated slightly with her footsteps, and her posture was charming, until she disappeared from sight, I retracted my gaze, and couldn't help but ask Tan Jian: "What is that Ten Thousand Beasts Gate?" ”
Tan Jian slowly rubbed a black ring on his finger and slowly told me about the origin of the so-called Ten Thousand Beast Gate, more precisely, the general situation of their circle.
Chinese culture has a long history, broad and profound, and what is very dazzling and peculiar is the theory of ghosts and gods and the secret art of easy law that have been circulated since ancient times. Almost every ancient civilization had its own indigenous religion.
For example, Buddhism in India, they believe in the Buddha, believing that Buddhism is boundless and can universalize the world, and they also believe that there is a blissful world in the West, and people have to experience the cycle of cause and effect. Another example is Christianity in Europe, which believes in God and believes that there is a distinction between heaven and hell, and that good people who have the glory of God can go to heaven after death, otherwise they will go to hell.
As a large country with an ancient civilization, China also has its own native religion, which is Taoism.
Taoism is a native religion of China, the original body comes from the ancient worship of heaven and man and witch civilization, as for the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Zhang Daoling formally founded Taoism, it absorbed the folk witchcraft number, inherited the concept of the unity of heaven and man, and guided by the Lao Zhuang doctrine, formed a religion that integrates Chinese culture.
In the long history, all kinds of ancient folk witchcraft gradually disappeared, only a small part of the way of family inheritance has been handed down, most of it has been absorbed by Taoism, as an orthodox inheritance, circulated within Taoism, and the mountain doctor life divination spell divided by later generations is to sort out these things and divide them.
Modern scientific research on these ancient gods and ghosts in China has called them 'Chinese occultism', that is, something that cannot be explained by science so far.
During the Cultural Revolution, there was a booming movement to hit the cow ghosts, snakes and gods, many Taoist priests were forced to return to the world, forced to marry and have children, and after the end of the Cultural Revolution, it was no longer possible to go back to be a Taoist priest, the wife and children were there, and as soon as they left home, what should they do?
For this reason, many of the secret techniques that circulated within Taoism have been recirculated back to the people, but there is a state of 'famine' within Taoism. Therefore, modern occultism has become a pattern in which the power of the people is the mainstay, and the power of orthodox Taoism is weakened.
Because of this, there are many people who pretend to be capable people to defraud money, which we call 'magic sticks'.
The Sanziguan where Tan Jian is located is a little-known dilapidated small temple, but Guanzhu is a person with real skills. He was also vulgar during the Cultural Revolution, but he was devoted to Taoism and did not want to get married. But in that era, if you were still vulgar and didn't get married, some people would think that you were 'a thief who didn't die', and if you buttoned down this hat, you would die.
Therefore, when the viewer was entangled, he happened to meet one of his senior brothers.
This senior brother is a woman. Taoism has no distinction between men and women, only the difference between the two ways of heaven and earth, and the title of Daogu, which we often say, does not exist within Taoism. Compared with Buddhism and ancient Christianity, Taoism is the only religion in the history of the world that does not distinguish between men and women, and there are also very many female gods and goddesses in Taoism, on the contrary, Christianity and Buddhism are basically shaved heads.
In Taoism, there is no title of senior sister or sister, and they are all referred to as senior brothers.
This senior brother, like him, also wanted to get married, but due to the pressure of the times, it was not possible not to get married, so the two made a move that seemed very advanced at the time: formal marriage.
Let's get married and get a license to live together, but this is just for outsiders to see, in private, the two are still brothers, you sleep with yours, I sleep with mine. After the end of the Cultural Revolution, the Guan Zhu returned to the vulgar, and then accepted Tan Jian's master and began to pass on the Taoism.
Now many Taoist temples have been polished by the Cultural Revolution, and those Xuanmen secrets, Taoist priests can only recall them in legends and books.
And scattered among the people, those Taoist priests who were still vulgar back then, or the folk warlock masters who escaped in the criticism at that time, their descendants often inherited the mantle, scattered among the people, and lived separately.
The Ten Thousand Beasts Gate is such an existence.
China has always had a method of controlling beasts, such as collecting snakes that most people have heard of, and can command the snakes of the entire mountain through secret methods, which is actually a kind of beast control. It's just that in the long river of history, coupled with the erosion of the Cultural Revolution, the beast control line has become a withered talent, almost extinct, and the remaining few people got together to form such a 'Ten Thousand Beasts Gate', which belongs to the management of half sects and half families, and is quite famous in the circle.
