Chapter 7: Shamanism
As I said before, my name is Yao Yuan, Yao is not unreachable, at best it is only as far as two miles, and the two miles I am talking about now refers to the distance from my hometown to the county seat.
Did you hear my name and didn't hear any clues, yes, this name is really ordinary, if you taste it carefully, there is a little bit of the meaning of the text, it is quite literary, as if it is a grandson who popped out of the book of Aunt Qiong Yao or Sister Xi Juan'er, but if you know where this name came from, I guarantee you will not think so, really.
Shall I tell you that my original name was Yao Youqian? Depend on.
Listen to my grandmother, when I was born, only more than two pounds, to put it bluntly, like a kitten, but this still made my father Yao Dongsheng happy, the scene at that time was the delivery room to spread the good news, my mother was born, my father was excited speechless, he brewed in the corridor of the hospital for a long time before he dropped the cigarette butt, patted his thighs and jumped up in the direction of the operating room to draw his thumb and shouted: Awesome!
It didn't matter what his voice was, and the people passing by in the corridor suddenly looked sideways, pondering my grandfather's words, and thought again: How much can this mother be able to give birth to be worthy of such a hard word............
In fact, it's no wonder he is so happy, you must know that when I was born, I was in a peak period of childbirth, and the women waiting to give birth in the county hospital were all numbered, and I don't know why there are so many female surnames for children born that day, so I have never stopped in my life, and I was so busy before I was born, and I accompanied her in my mother's belly to rush to the delivery bed and wait for pregnancy.
It's strange to say, the people who are in front of me are all girls, which makes my father worried, at that time, the patriarchal family, the old Yao family is his only seedling, he is really afraid that my mother will follow the flow like a number, and when the time comes, as soon as Yao Da Meiren is born, the incense of the old Yao family will be cut off.
Fortunately, my mother is really angry, although I am like a kitten, but there are guys with me, how can my father not be happy with something?
Since then, the whole family has taken me as a treasure, and the next day I was discharged from the hospital, my father did not go home first, but first went to the township police station to help me settle down, in fact, he also wanted to show off, the subtext in his heart was 'Hey, you see, I Yao Dongsheng can indeed give birth, such a big fat boy'.
Thanks to his idea, I would have been ruined.
You must know that there were a few old policemen in the township police station back then, and it was a coincidence that the daughter-in-law of the old guy who was on duty on the day my father went was also born that day.
He asked my father, "What's the child's name?" ”
"Yao is rich!" My dad replied with a grin.
Na Cheng thought that the old man actually pouted, and then said to my father: "Ridiculous, to say that we have entered a new era under the leadership of the party, how can the new era still give children such vulgar names?" ”
As soon as he said this, my father was choked and speechless, it turned out that the old man was still a TV fan, he loved opera since he was a child, and after installing semiconductors in the police station, he became obsessed with 'pop music', plus he was not angry, so he pulled his old face to my father's official tone: "Xiao Yao'er, it's not me who educates you, you say how good the current policy is, but why can't your ideological level go up?" Yao is rich, Yao is rich, it is clearly the bureaucratic landlord of feudal capitalist society, no, no. ”
My dad doesn't have much culture, but he also heard it, this old Red Guard is purely looking for faults, and his daughter-in-law doesn't want others to be good if she can't give birth to a boy, but there is no way, people are in charge of my family, and it's not easy to provoke an official, and it's not easy to provoke people when the official is crushed, so my dad had to smile and say: "Hey, haven't I been to school for a few days, what's the matter, or you always help me to create a literate person?" If anything, I'll listen to you. ”
My dad is bad enough, you must know that there are no educated people in these ten miles and eight villages, and the old calf in front of him still relies on the position of the landlord who relied on joy to fight in the previous special period, and he has a fart ideological level?
Sure enough, the old grandson was choked by his own words, how could he be named, but if he didn't say it now, then this old face would be lost, just in a hurry, just when he was blushing and his neck was thick, Wang Luobin's song "In That Distant Place" suddenly played in the electric box program in the police station.
The old policeman had a flash of inspiration, and suddenly slapped his thigh and laughed, and he said to my father: "Yes, yes, there is a good girl in that distant place, haha, your baby is called 'Yao Yuan'." ”
……………… It can be said that the name given to me is the king of western singers Wang Luobin, there is a good girl in that distant place, the old guy is a pun, obviously wants my family to raise me as a girl, my father really doesn't like this name, this is clearly 'to be wronged', wronged his uncle, but there is no way, the words have been said before, and the name of the person does say, so he has no choice but to accept his fate.
So my name is Yao Yuan, and my nickname is Yao Youqian, and after I know the reason for my name in the future, I feel that my name is really not literary at all, nor is it ordinary at all.
On the contrary, it is quite **.
Suo's surname, the first name is a code name, and it is said to be a small revival of literature and art, which sounds very pleasant, but it is a little out of line with my face, but it doesn't matter.
I grew up naturally, I have never left this small village, even to go to middle school is only not far to go to the township, although the weak body is always bullied, but fortunately, there is no disease and no disaster, and I have spent more than ten years peacefully.
As I said before, when I was young, my father and my mother worked across provinces together, leaving only my grandmother to take care of me, and I went to the old lame man to listen to stories all day long.
The story I told above, I started listening to it when I was in elementary school, and I heard that I graduated from junior high school, and at the beginning I was completely a'although I didn't understand it, but it seemed to be very powerful', but I listened to it a lot, and my ears were calloused, and it was not unusual, after all, I grew up and went to school, and received nine years of compulsory brainwashing, ah no, it was after nine years of compulsory education, and these feudal superstitions were really regarded as stories.
Originally, where are the ghosts, where are the ghosts? Who has seen it? I didn't see it once anyway, so I completely took it as a white lie from adults to children.
Strange to say, since the old cripple found out that I could beat the broken drum, I learned one more instrument from him, and the stories I heard became more and more bizarre, he used to tell me, all of them were Taoist priests catching ghosts, what 'brush your hand out, the ghost will fall' and so on, quite vague and completely unexplained.
But since then, his story has become more and more detailed, so much so that what the ghost in that story is, how it came about, where the weakness is, and the specific name is 'bardo body' or something, as if he had personally encountered it.
Moreover, he began to tell me some stories about the origin of the 'Dancing God' and some stories about the Dancing God.
Listening to him, although the great god of dancing sounds quite low-level and deceptive, this way is indeed a very ruthless skill, and it is also famous in history, and has even been affirmed by the royal family.
There are three kinds of sects that have been affirmed by the royal family in history, and they are: Buddha, Tao, and Wu.
The emperor of the Tang Dynasty believed in Buddhism, Luoyang White Horse Temple is famous all over the world, Chen Xuanzang smuggled into Tianzhu 'Interjia' (ancient India) on the first TV series have been stained with a lot of light, Buddhism thought into politics, folk customs, so that it has developed into tolerance, generosity, leading science and technology, since then the Celestial Empire has become famous overseas.
The emperor of the Ming Dynasty believed in Taoism, the most famous is Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houxi, a friend of mine who wrote an online article said to me: This old guy is an out-and-out Taoist enthusiast, according to legend, he seems to have paranoia, and he believes in the heart that this world can be immortal, so he summoned thousands of old Taoists to play alchemy in the palace, once a grandson wrote a very awesome green word to this old brother (Taoist ritual prayer to heaven article), by this time' When the editor-in-chief of Daodian Chinese Network' Zhu Lao looked at it, he suddenly looked at Long Yan Dayue, and without saying a word, he signed the girl A, and he didn't say anything, and he was also named Chengxiang, which is much more awesome than the current platinum writers, it is simply one person under ten thousand people, and since then the 'Qingzi Prime Minister' has laughed at the whole dynasty.
After a long time, when I listened to another friend of mine who was very out of tune to explain the history of this emperor to me, he said this: It is said that this Zhu Houxi is indeed disgusting enough, but he believes in the Tao but does not cultivate the Taoist heart, and has done countless evil things, the most disgusting thing is that he was confused by the demon Tao, and he thought that the menstrual blood of the virgin can make people immortal, so with a wave of his hand, countless poor girls were forcibly conscripted into the palace, and they were not given food, only let them gnaw on mulberry leaves and drink dew, so that those lonely palace maids were killed and injured countless times, and finally one day, The women couldn't stand it, under the leadership of a palace maid named Yang Jinying, the palace maids sneaked into the dormitory late at night to form a team to brush the emperor's copy, but by coincidence, they were in a hurry, the rope was tied in a dead knot, and when the boss Jiajing Emperor only had the last trace of blood left, some teammates in the team saw that things were not good and temporarily withdrew from the group, so that the success fell short.
Although my two friends spoke in a very incoherent manner, I knew that this incident was true, and that this Jiajing Emperor was also the first emperor in history to be assassinated by a palace maid, because this incident occurred in the year of Jiajing Renyin (that is, in 1542 AD), all later historians call this event the 'Renyin Incident'.
And the witch religion is far away, as early as the time of the three emperors and five emperors, this religion has prevailed, according to legend, the original Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor is to believe in this religion, everyone should know that the earliest divination is to tie the grass rope and burn the king eight shells, this is what the wizards at that time had to do, and then, the witch religion declined, until the rise of the last generation of feudal dynasty Aixinjue Luo.
The Qing Dynasty originated from the Jurchens, and the earliest capital was the bitter cold land of the far north, which is now the northeast, the Jurchen people were brave and good at fighting, and the culture was different from that of the Han people in the Southern Dynasties, and shamanism was their most popular sect.
And listen to the old lame man, the shaman is perfected by a great sage named 'Peng Laozu', its history is earlier than Buddhism, after the decline of the witch religion, once in Tibetan Province for a generation, become the main religion of the local area, and then later, the Buddhist culture flowed in, the legend says that the Tibetan province witch religion has defeated Sakyamuni five times, but because of its Buddhism is good at tolerance and annexation (which is why the Buddhist schools are not the same everywhere now), so in the end the witch religion still did not escape from being annexed and turned into Tibetan Buddhism.
However, after this catastrophe, the witch cult was defeated, and the cultists who swore to die were scattered to the end of the world, the most famous of which were the two branches, one went west, and went the opposite way to India, the witchcraft culture is broad and profound, this school is good at the art of external body practice, after several generations of evolution, it has evolved into a method suitable for local residents to practice, this method emphasizes the unity of nature and man, man and nature are one, and the potential ability of the human body is triggered by movements, and then it is called 'yug' by the locals, that is, the prototype of the later 'yoga'.
The other group went north, came to the bitter cold land of the far north, and multiplied through marriage and marriage with the local indigenous nomads, the members of this branch are good at witchcraft, so this is the prototype of the ancient Northeast shamanic witchcraft, and the dancing god is a dance that shamans communicate with the unknown, that is, 'shaman dance'.
After the Qing Dynasty gained power, although it also believed in Buddhism, but the sect did not dare to forget, whenever there is a major event, the shaman must be present, as mentioned earlier, even our current TV series are always played, such as "Huanzhu Gege", in order to bring a green hat to Qianlong Ye, the second goods of Maildan entered the palace and danced a fake shaman dance surrounded by several second goods, and that kind of shaman dance is the prototype of the dancing god.
Of course, these are wild histories, just listen to it, it is said that Qianlong Ye believed in Buddhism at that time, but he had a soft spot for Tibetan Buddhism, so much so that he gave his hometown Lama Temple to the lama as a palace, in addition to political significance, is there a trace of nostalgia for the place where witchcraft is rooted?
Of course, none of this is our concern.
Although the old lame man told me about witchcraft, I still regarded him as a story, and at the time I thought it was just a pastime in my spare time, and at worst, it could only be regarded as the historical source of my donkey skin drumming.
Anyway, he spit out the stars, so I have the right to listen to it, just like the set of lyrics "Helping Soldiers" he taught me, I thought to myself, what 'popsicle trick', I didn't take it to heart at all.
Until the day the old cripple had an accident.
