Chapter 13 New Knowledge of History
In March of the twelfth year of Chenghua (1476 AD), the Miao people in Banzhou, Sichuan Province revolted, and in November of the same year, the uprising was suppressed, killing and wounding hundreds of people. Zhang Zhan, the imperial envoy in charge of suppression, found an extremely beautiful woman when he broke through Miao Village, so he took her home. When she returned to Beijing to resume her life, the woman fled and her whereabouts were unknown. In the thirteenth year of Chenghua, the famous "Demon Fox Night Out" incident occurred in Beijing, and the Heavenly Master Li Zilong discovered that the "Demon Fox" was actually the Miao "Human Gu" brought back by Zhang Zhan, which used Gu to imprison the fox's soul in the human body to achieve immortality, and its side effects were obvious. The Heavenly Master took this opportunity to bring the Maoshan technique to the north, so he wanted to take the opportunity of collecting demons to show people the art of catching ghosts. At that time, the demon fox hid in the palace, and Li Zilong entered the palace to catch demons by virtue of his many cronies in the palace, but he was unexpectedly executed as an assassin.
Just when this demon fox was about to plague the palace, one of Li Zilong's cronies, the eunuch Wang Zhi, saw that Xianzong was very concerned about the rumors of the "demon fox coming out at night" and the Li Zilong incident, so he took this opportunity to knock on the side, transferred a large number of brocade guards, and trained them to become spirits, and finally caused Xianzong to establish the West Factory, which is the earliest ghost suppression institution in the north. However, in view of the fact that the rulers at that time did not believe in this ghost theory, the south was able to secretly develop the ghost suppression agency because of the "high emperor of the sky", during which the first official has been taking a crackdown on this, and the northern emperor is even more so, and even Li Zilong was named a "gossip to confuse the public" and "side-door left-minded" disciples, so the ghost suppression activities of Xichang are secretly covered up under its spy activities. In this way, the north of the perennial spiritless will be at peace and free from the plague of ghosts.
The good times did not last long, and the demon foxes in the palace colluded with the unjust souls - there were many people who died in vain in the palace at that time, so there were often unjust souls - and instigated them to possess the hundreds of officials in the court and disrupt the government, so as to avenge the Miao people. In order to intensify its efforts, Xichang wantonly arrested the possessed people, which caused the ministers of the DPRK and China to be dissatisfied, believing that Wang Zhi only cared about being promoted and making a fortune, and that he was alarmist and alarmist, and Xianzong did not know what was going on, so he had to dismiss Xichang.
In this incident, because the north has been in a state of no spirit for many years, so ghosts are rampant, at this time Xichang was just born, fledgling, so he was defeated in the fight against ghosts.
However, after the dismissal of the West Factory, its ostensible spy activities also stopped, and Xianzong felt insecure, and at the instigation of the traitor Dai Jin, the West Factory reopened.
Although it was an unexpected opportunity, Wang Zhi did not dare to slack off and intensified his struggle against the demon fox. In the next five years, the power of the West Factory was extremely inflated, and finally subdued the demon fox and quelled the dispute.
At its peak, the power of Xichang even surpassed the Maoshan force in the south, but the so-called thing pole must be opposed, such a huge force, after all, could not escape the emperor's suspicion, and finally in the power struggle, Wang Zhi failed, was transferred out of the capital, Xichang was disbanded, and the north returned to the era of the spiritless. Later, although in the first year of Zhengde, the great eunuch Liu Jin reopened the West Factory, but at that time it was only a superficial spy agency, and the ghost no longer existed.
The short-lived Northern Ghost Suppression Institution was wiped out, and for the next four hundred years, the North remained in a state of no soul.
The mighty West Factory could not escape the hands of the Son of Heaven, which discouraged countless spirits who wanted to go to the north.
In the following hundreds of years, countless spirits left the land of China and brought spiritual magic to all parts of the world, and ghost-suppressing institutions appeared one after another in the long history of various countries.
The globalization of spiritual arts has made religions everywhere very dissatisfied, so the survival of the anti-ghost institutions has been difficult, and there have been many tragic wars caused by evil spirits in the history of the world.
Until modern times, the most tragic event in the history of both the spiritual world and the history of the living world has occurred - two world wars. This is the most serious evil spirit rebellion since the spirit man fought against evil spirits.
After the end of World War II, UG(U
ited Ghoste
, the Spirit Alliance) was founded, and ghost suppression agencies around the world began to unite, and in the first GAUG (Ge
e
al Assembly of the U
ited Ghoste
, the Spirit Alliance Conference) took the lead in putting forward the idea of a ghost suppression university.
In 1956, the establishment of the Ivy League schools in the United States marked the beginning of the schoolization of ghost control institutions, and countries have followed suit, and since then ghost town colleges and universities have appeared all over the world.
In 1963, under China's "Future City Plan", the first city built on artificial land was born, Fuhai. At the same time, a series of companies represented by future technology companies were born, and the University of Phoenix was also among them.
The establishment of Phoenix University attracted the support of a large number of spiritual people, but there were also a small number of old-fashioned people who adhered to the religious practice of "opening the altar to teach disciples and preaching the law", among which Mao Yongjiang, the successor of Mao Zong, was the representative figure. Soon, ** broke out, Maoshan also suffered a disaster, and the Taoist priests who were unwilling to join Phoenix University and stayed in Maoshan were sent down, and the Mao Yongjiang family was arrested and sent to Beijing to be criticized. A large number of spiritual beings who supported Phoenix University, together with Phoenix University, escaped the catastrophe of the past ten years under the protection of the floating sea. After ten years, the southern spiritual realm was basically under the guardianship of Phoenix University, while Mao Yongjiang stayed in the north, opened the Heavenly Master Hall, and preached and accepted disciples.
After more than 400 years, the Northern Town Ghost Organization has reappeared. Although the Mao Yongjiang family has contributed a lot to this, it is actually a product of involuntarily, so its motives are debatable, and the history of the spiritual world is even more favorable to this person.
Since then, Maoshan Taoism has also been divided into two factions: the traditional Taoism of the north, and the modern Taoism of Phoenix University in the south.
Shiraba closed the book. In the past half a month, this "Maoshan Daojian" has shown him the struggle between humans and ghosts in the Nuwa Fuxi era, to the establishment of Maoshan art, to the current pattern, which is simply a history book that subverts the three views.
If this book is true, then the history that Bai Maxiao has learned in his twenty years of life must be re-understood, no wonder Fu Jiansheng said that this book is only secretly circulated in the spiritual world, and if this book is passed on, it will definitely be regarded as a boring novel.
History has only written a part of the Maoshan technique today, and then there is a detailed introduction to the Maoshan technique, which is divided into talisman technique, spell, swordsmanship, and formation. Bai Maxiao only read the beginning of each article, and he already realized that this was a textbook of this spiritual university, and according to his spiritual knowledge, it was more suitable to read some children's books in the spiritual kindergarten at this time.
Relieved, he pushed the book into a corner and prepared to head out the door—it was a student council tryout, and he didn't want to miss it.
