Since ancient times, Confucianism, Confucianism, Taoism, and the three religions have been regarded as the excellent traditional culture of Kyushu, and they complement each other on three legs. It constitutes a splendid Chinese civilization.

Confucianism and scholars have always taken "self-cultivation, their family, governing the country, and leveling the world" as their own responsibility. Frequently appears in the eyes of the world. It seems that only when the world knows about it can it be carried forward.

However, Taoism among the three religions is obviously incompatible with the other two religions. Taoist people all believe in one person, one mountain, one detention and one journey, and one dust for a lifetime. Those who seek immortals and seek the Tao are immersed in the mountains and rivers, leaving behind and independent. Wake up the world by forgetting the world, and save the world by cynicism. In this faint tranquility, the masters frequently appeared, and the collection was astonishing.

However, as the native religion of Kyushu, Taoism does not seem to have a similar sense of existence as foreign Buddhism. The Taoist temples of the immortal family are all hidden in the deep mountains and huge valleys, and the masters of the Tao are even more gods. But the key thing is that even if the world has been in the world for thousands of years, the inheritance of Taoism has been passed down to the fullest, and it has never been broken. Even in modern society, Taoism is still largely hidden in the world.

Well, the question is, how did such an isolated religion survive for thousands of years? Where do they come from? In fact, the answer to this question is not complicated, and I believe you probably already have a little sign in your heart. That's right, Taoism has always been at the service of the current generation of those in power.

There are also four major sects in Kyushu today, the Longhu Mountain Heavenly Master's Mansion, the Wudang Mountain Wudang School, the Maoshan Maoshan Sect, and the Quanzhen School. Since Taoism was founded by Li Er, it has a history of 1,800 years. 1800, not 18! In the course of a thousand years, how many bloody storms have occurred in Kyushu, how many dynasties have changed, and how many religions have become victims of politics. Take Buddhism as an example, Emperor Taiwu of the Northern Wei Dynasty, Emperor Wu of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and Emperor Wuzong of the Tang Dynasty all destroyed Buddhism one after another, and the monks were naturally wiped out.

On the one hand, the reason why Taoism has been safe and quiet is because the previous heads of Taoism have insight into the essence of philosophy and know the essentials of life. But the most important thing is the other side, that is, relying on the changes of Yin and Yang in order to explore the Tao of heaven and earth!

What is Taoism? To put it simply, it is to announce all things in the world with the rotation of yin and yang, and to use gossip to point out the vast sentient beings, and at the same time, to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and turn evil into good fortune. But for those in power, borrowing the Taoist immortal law to control the country and ensure that their own family will rule for thousands of generations, this is the royal way.

Speaking of which, you may wonder, is it true that just by picking a great god there in Taoism, you can really protect the fortunes of the country? Of course not, but I'll give you another example, the flood of '54, in that disaster, the death toll was as high as more than 30,000. But even so, the heroic people of Kyushu finally defeated the flood.

In this flood fight and rescue, of course, the huge sacrifices of the people and soldiers are indelible. But do you know that in that year, Kyushu urgently snatched back a cultural relic from abroad at all costs, Mao Gongding.

Mao Gongding, one of the nine tripods of King Zhou, can be the town of national luck! It's no secret that most of the brothers who have a hobby in this area have heard of it. However, who told the role of the red great man Mao Gongding? Anyway, it's definitely not the red greatman's own family heirloom. In addition, in other histories of Kyushu, you can always catch a glimpse of Taoism.

In the countryside near Hanhai City, there is a secluded town, called Nanshan Town, with deep love and long artistic conception. To the southwest of the town, there is a dense bamboo forest. Privately planted, with three paths. Although it is taken care of all year round, it does not set up a fence, let others taste, and everything is fate.

Every sunny and early frost, a slight mist rises. There are often morning dew hanging leaves, listening to the wind and rain. Although the scenery is magnificent, there are very few people who come to visit it, but they flock to the so-called places of interest that are relatively far away.

After all, we always have high hopes for the future, but we are not optimistic about the present. Everyone in the town knows that the owner of the bamboo forest is an elderly man with a strange temper and rarely interacts with ordinary people. Usually, if there are neighbors visiting the door, this old man actually closes the door directly to thank the guests, plus the children are not around, so there are few people here.

In the bamboo forest, there is a small building in the forest. The bamboo leaves are sprinkled, and it is more of a paradise. There is no dream in the night, and the moon is flawless. Tonight, under the moonlight, the leaves and shadows are intertwined in the quaint courtyard. There was no wind, but a few bamboo leaves were falling. "Oh, there's no wind falling from the leaves, that's weird." Smelling, I saw a calm figure sitting quietly in the living room, playing alone. Looking at his people from a distance, although his temples are white, there are no branches. Even though he is close to the age of the Buddha, he is still evil and righteous in his gestures, and the black and white are particularly sophisticated.

The old man saw in an instant that the moonlight was like water tonight, and the moonlight entered the house. So he happily set off and walked into the atrium. Observe the stars in the sky like a sea, and carefully appreciate the algae in the world.

The old man muttered to himself, "Calculate the time, and the grandson should arrive tomorrow morning." A kind smile appeared on the old man's face. But in an instant, a few wisps of worry took their place, "Alas~, I hope my grandson is not like her mother." After saying this, the old man turned his gaze to the sky again, where there were still thousands of stars and stars.

Suddenly, the old man said casually, "On the contrary, idleness is idle, it is better to get up with a hexagram, and it is better to relieve boredom" After speaking, the old man nodded to himself, as if comforting himself.

But in the next second, an amazing scene appeared. I saw that the old man's right hand was stretched out, and a domineering energy suddenly appeared, the palm wind was raised, and a few bamboo leaves were directly sucked into the old man's hand. The old man carefully studied the bamboo leaves in his hand, and then closed his eyes and calmed down. Secretly choose the yang and yin, after all, there are three trigrams in one hexagram, and three trigrams come out of gossip!

The old man's wrist turned slightly, the palm wind rose again, and the bamboo leaves fluttered in the wind! The old man's fingertips tapped slightly, quietly waiting for the bamboo leaves to fall. Because the moment the bamboo leaves are settled, it is the time when the hexagram appears!

The clouds and ink are fixed, and the hexagram is present! The old man's feet were shocked, and he turned into an afterimage, suddenly appeared in front of the bamboo leaves, and after observing the direction of the bamboo leaves, he pinched his fingers and counted. "Ren Shen, um" The old man frowned slightly, "It's great to leave the top." Si ~ Look again! "Knuckle switching, gossip exchange, proverbial see!" The grass mustard is slightly thickened, the blood stains the rivers and mountains and the moonlight is red, the upper nine foundations are bleak, and the thousand-year-old emperor road is empty"

Suddenly, the old man grabbed it with his right hand, and everything around him was quietly slowing down, until at the end, everything stood still! I don't know how long it took, the old man's closed eyes suddenly opened, "Not good! Kyushu is in trouble! ”

The flowers are similar every year, but the people are different every year. The bright moonlight not only illuminates the small buildings in the forest, but also illuminates the Emgrand Community of Hanhai City. It's eleven o'clock in the evening, and according to the regulations, Li Dongguo should go to the community to inspect.

It has been eight years since Li Dongguo came to this small southeast city. Eight years can change a lot of people. The pride and ambition of the past are no longer there, and the only remaining edges and corners in my heart have been smoothed out by life. What this city left him with was not warmth and memories, because the overlap of steel and concrete had long covered the sky and made it impossible to see the sun.

In the past eight years, Li Dongguo has done everything. Sales, takeout, flyers, everything. But in the end, except for the white eyes of outsiders, he had nothing. Li Dongguo's innate honesty, kindness, etc., failed to bring him good results in the end. From beginning to end, he was the stupid foreigner in the eyes of the locals of Hanhai.

After several changes, Li Dongguo became a temporary security guard in the Emgrand community. Because the community has just been open for a year, the vast majority of owners are still decorating, and there are too many renovation workers coming and going. In order to prevent theft, the property of Emgrand Community had to hire some temporary security guards to cope with the shortage of manpower. Give the minimum wage, but brazenly tell the temporary workers that this is the property management company's inspection of you! Only the hardest working workers will be hired after the inspection.

Li Dongguo didn't know, didn't know that this was just an inferior method. Because in his eyes, having a long-term and stable job is equivalent to bringing a kind of hope to his family! Parents no longer have to drag their elderly bodies to work in the fields, and their daughters, who have just entered elementary school, no longer have to live on coarse grains for three meals a day in order to save tuition fees for the next semester. So he only has to fight, fight with his life! Just so that the director could look at him again in a few months.

Today, a worker finally fell ill, and he couldn't stand up now in order to save hundreds of yuan in medical bills, but it was his turn to go on a night patrol. Moreover, the Emgrand community clearly stipulates that in order to ensure the safety of the owners, all security guards must not be absent from the night patrol. Otherwise, they will be fired immediately, and they will not be paid this month's salary.

At this time, after hearing the news, Li Dongguo hurriedly ran over and persuaded the workers to rest early, and today he went on a night patrol for the workers. On the one hand, if he dies and does not save him, Li Dongguo will not be able to get over it, on the other hand, Li Dongguo also hopes that he will appear in the surveillance a few more times, so that the supervisor may be inclined to choose a diligent security guard when selecting people.

This kind of simple thought may make people laugh when they say it, but this is all Li Dongguo's hope! A glimmer of light that is worth his best efforts to ask for! However, he may but will not know that tonight, his kindness is really not the right time.
