Chapter 131: Immortals
Qi Xuansu was a little interested, "What is a yin moon?"
Lao Pang said, "Legend has it that there is an eye of the sea at the bottom of the sea, which connects to the netherworld, and there is constantly yin energy seeping out of the eye of the sea, and then it spreads to the surface of the sea, rises to the sky, and condenses into a black moon, which is the yin moon."
Qi Xuansu said, "Such a yin moon, even Utu doesn't know, you can actually know."
Old Pang said, "Because Lord Utu is not from the Central Plains and does not go to sea, he doesn't know these sea legends."
Qi Xuansu couldn't help asking, "Is it still related to the Central Plains?"
Old Pang said, "Qi Zhenren should know Sun Lingxiu, Sun Zhenren, right?"
Qi Xuansu was stunned, "Of course I know."
Sun Lingxiu, whose ancestral home is Langya Mansion in Qizhou, is a family member of the Five Buckets of Rice Road, and is a member of the Yongjia Nandu family. His uncle Sun Jingyuan was taught by Du Zigong, the leader of the Wudou Rice Road in Qiantang Mansion, and was respected by others.
About 1,500 years ago, in the second year of Long'an, Wang Gong's rebellion broke out, and Sun Jingyuan thought that the country was about to end, so in the name of courting Wang Gong, he privately organized thousands of disciples and prepared to start an incident. Before the incident happened, Daozi father and son booby-trapped Sun Jingyuan and his six sons. Sun Lingxiu fled to the island and gathered more than 100 people determined to avenge Sun Jingyuan.
In the third year of Longan, Yuan Xian sent the Dongtu Prefecture to exempt slaves as guests, called "Le Zhi", and moved to Beijing to serve in the military.
At that time, the wealthy families in Huzhou were good at paying taxes and did not care about the imperial court. The only thing the imperial court could control was Jiangzhou. In order to deal with the threat from the upstream, Yuan Xian, who was in charge of the government at the time, while increasing the collection of taxes, in view of the current situation that the Beifu soldiers did not obey the command, was ambitious to establish a new army completely under his control.
However, the source of soldiers was exhausted, and Yuan Xian had no choice but to forcibly levy the strong men of the Jiangdong Prefectures who were "free from slaves as guests", and concentrated in the Beijing Division for military service. These people are called "musicians."
This measure aroused strong resentment among the nobles and those who were free from slavery. The nobles generally served slaves and maids, and even if they were freed as guests, they remained attached to them. The requisition of those who are exempted from slavery as guests is "Le Dependent", which is equivalent to taking away a considerable amount of manpower from the hands of the nobles; The common people, who were free from slavery and were already raised from slave status to the status of semi-yeoman farmers with their own economy, were reluctantly conscripted as low-status soldiers. Therefore, as soon as this order was issued, it caused "an uproar in the east, people were unbearable, and the world suffered."
Sun Lingxiu took advantage of the turmoil in the hearts of the people to lead the crowd from the island to conquer Shangyu Mansion and take advantage of the victory to break the Huiji Mansion. Huiji, Wujun, Wuxing, Yixing, Linhai, Yongjia, Dongyang, and Xin'an responded in groups, and hundreds of thousands of people were in the middle of the day.
Sun Lingxiu's rebel army occupied Huiji Bafu, proclaimed himself "General Zhengdong", and set up
The official position, calling his disciples "immortals", please punish Daozi and Yuan Xian's father and son.
This is undoubtedly another Daomen uprising, and the so-called Five Dou Rice Dao is the Dao of the Heavenly Master.
There are also people lurking in the Heavenly Master's Dao in Beijing, who are afraid of human feelings and are often worried about stealing, so they are under martial law inside and outside.
Xie Yan led a heavy army to defeat Sun Lingxiu, and the rebel army of Jiangdong Bafu gathered in Huiji, "If the women are tired and can't go, the baby will be thrown into the water, and tell him, 'He Ru will go to the immortal hall first, and I will find you later.'" 」
In December of the third year of Long An, Xie Yan led his army to capture Yixing and killed Xu Yunzhi, the leader of the rebel army. then marched to Wuxing; Garrison Wucheng. Divide troops to cooperate with Liu Gaozhi and advance to Qiantang Mansion. Sun Lingxiu led more than 200,000 men and women to retreat eastward, and then retreated into the island.
In the fourth or fifth year of Long An, the rebel army and the official army continued to fight fiercely, and once approached the Beijing division and broke through Guangling Mansion. However, in the end, Sun Lingxiu still failed to attack Linhai, but went to the sea to sink himself, and the believers of Wudou Midao thought that he had become an immortal of the water official, and threw more than 100 people into the water from the dead.
Daomen is different from Buddhism, has always dared to rebel, and later embarked on the upper route because the Li family was in power, feeling that the Daomen was powerful and uncontrollable, so the bottom of the kettle was drawn, and the Daomen was respected as the head of the three religions on the bright side, and the powerful fought to believe in the Daomen, but in fact, the Daomen was hollowed, but the Buddhism Gate occupied the ecological position of the Daomen in the bottom people.
It's just that Buddhism is as timid as a mouse, never dares to rebel, and oppresses the people, blindly enjoys it, and is unpopular, but has been repeatedly destroyed by the Buddha.
In the final analysis, it is still their own people who are the best at rectifying their own people, and the Li family has seized the world, although they let the Daomen go on the surface
reached its peak, but in the following hundreds of years, the Dao Sect, which had lost its underlying foundation, also degenerated, and actually became the end of the Three Sects. Until the Xuansheng Zhongxing Daomen.
Sun Lingxiu's Wudou Mi Taoist believes in the way of longevity and long-term vision, and believes in the three senses of heaven, earth, and water, especially in water officials. In fact, there is the prototype of today's Daomen.
This uprising also caused the reform of the Daomen by the upper echelons of the Daomen, Patriarch Guan and Patriarch Lu, which led to the emergence of the Northern and Southern Heavenly Master Dao, and finally the Southern Heavenly Master Dao returned to the Zhengyi and the Northern Heavenly Master Dao to the Taiping Dao.
The Taiping Dao, led by the Li family, also regarded this incident as another righteous feat after the Yellow Turban Uprising.
In short, Daomen's evaluation of this uprising was quite positive, mainly praised, so Sun Lingxiu was respectfully called Sun Zhen
The reputation of the people is much better than that of Lin Lingsu, the great Jin national teacher.
However, this person's lack of foresight and talent led to the failure of the uprising, and in the end he was just a real person.
Lao Pang said, "After Sun Zhenren went to the sea to sink himself, he did not die, but took those immortals who threw themselves into the water to the depths of the sea. At that time, the imperial court searched the mountains and inspected the sea to find Sun Zhenren, and the master was exhausted, so Sun Zhenren did not stay in Nanyang, and went to Luo Suo Zhou from Nanyang through Java, but the people of the court were still pressing step by step, so Sun Zhenren led the immortals to leave Luo Suo Zhou again, continued to the south, and finally came to this sea area between the South Continent and Luo Suo Zhou. The sea here is vast, except for a few islands, there is almost no land, and the people of the imperial court have to return to the Central Plains after searching for no avail."
"Legend has it that this Sun Zhenren sensed the yin moon on the way to escape and realized the truth of walking towards the moon, so that he could get rid of the Confucian masters from the Central Plains and escape."
Qi Xuansu said, "In other words, there are not only insect people in this sea area, but also legendary Dao Sect Immortals?"
Lao Pang said, "Real people don't have to be surprised, the sea is bigger than the New World, and how many people are there in the New World now? Westerners, Central Plains people, aborigines, and slaves plundered by Westerners, aborigines can be subdivided into many tribes, each with its own differences. The vast sea, so vast, can't be the only one of the worms."
Qi Xuansu nodded and said, "That's true. So what does Wormmen have to do with Immortals?"
Lao Pang shook his head and said, "Old man, I don't know."
Qi Xuansu asked again, "In that case, then how did you know about the Worm and the Immortal?"
Lao Pang said, "Lao Yu is also from Xidaomen, he has been familiar with the classics since he was a child, and he knows many secrets in the eyes of others. So at the age of thirty, he began to go to sea, and he did it for decades, and he often encountered all kinds of strange things at sea, including great horrors, and often so-called cyclamen walking on the sea, and the old man had witnessed it several times. The sailors said it was a cyclamen, but the old man knew that it was actually a worm and an immortal."
Qi Xuansu sighed with emotion: "It seems that this sea is really underestimated."
Lao Pang said, "What the real people say is good, although the real people often go back and forth to various continents and cross the sea, but they are all flying in the sky, and the gods and ghosts under the sea have long been dormant. But in fact, the ghosts and spirits are hidden under the surface of the sea, which must be guarded against. So
The opening of the route is the most difficult, I don't know how many people will die, and I will use human lives and ships to try out little by little, where I can go and where I can't."
"To this day, not to mention the flying boats in the sky, the ships on the sea still have to take the familiar routes that have been opened, and they dare not deviate from the course when they are idle, and the sea area that the real person said is just outside the normal course, which is very dangerous."
"There are some ships that have strayed into this place and never come out again, and there are legends that there are countless shipwrecks there, countless unjust souls are bound to the bottom of the sea, and there are legends that there is a huge sea monster here, which was once a great demon of the South Seas, but was expelled by the Queen of Heaven and had to flee to this place. I don't know if it's true or not."
Lao Pang is the boatmaster of the sea ship, but the key to going to sea this time is the word "find", so he was transferred to the flying boat.
Qi Xuansu nodded slightly, and then looked at Yang Shaozhen, "Yang Gangshou, what do you think?"
Yang Shaozhen replied, "We are flying boats and warships, so we should not be afraid of these.
But it's better to be careful."
Qi Xuansu said, "It's really better to be careful. How's that for the men under you?"
Yang Shaozhen said, "Huangfu Zhenren has explained, and the essence is not much more expensive."
Qi Xuansu thought for a moment and ordered, "Tell Huen Ah Khan that if his business is done, we will go on the boat."
Utu stepped back and disappeared into the shadows.
After a short time, the group came to the "Horned Dragon", and Utu and Huen Ah Khan were also there.
Qi Xuansu walked in front and looked around the ship.
Huang Fu is also very attentive, this "Horned Dragon" is a warship that has been put into service, not a decommissioned cargo, which can be regarded as in the prime of life. The deck, bulkheads, guardrails and other places are covered with various talismans, each talisman is a formation, and the whole overlaps into a huge formation.
Huen Ah Khan was one position behind Qi Xuansu and said, "Usually I am down-to-earth, but now I have to be at sea, and my heart is really a little unsteady."
Utu walked side by side with Huen Ahan, "Aren't the hundred faces of human immortals like dragons? When the dragon enters the sea, how can it not be steady?"
Huen Ahan: "It's okay that you don't mention dragons, but when you mention dragons, you remind me that when the Daomen slaughtered countless dragons, forcing the remaining dragons to go away to the deep sea, we wouldn't just meet them, right?" When the time comes, the new hatred and the old hatred will be counted, and there will be a big battle, and my people will be afraid that they will not be able to defeat the real dragon."
Utu said, "Bad luck, bad luck, don't talk nonsense, how can there be such a coincidental thing."
