041 Knowing the ancestors in motion, who to find when there is nothing to do (I)
In Taoist legends, immortals are often indistinguishable from gods. For example, the "Five Ancestors of the North" enshrined by the Quanzhen Sect, Wang Xuanfu, Zhong Liquan, Lu Dongbin, Liu Cao, and Wang Chongyang, among them is Wang Chongyang himself. Zhong Liquan and Lu Dongbin are not only characters who have existed in real history, but also one of the eight immortals of folklore. The legend of the Eight Immortals began in the Tang Dynasty, when there were already "Eight Immortals" and "Eight Immortals", but the surnames of the Eight Immortals changed especially in the Song Dynasty. In the Ming Dynasty, Wu Yuantai's "Journey to the East" told the story of "Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea", and it was determined that Tie Guan Li, Han Zhongli, Zhang Guolao, He Xiangu, Lu Dongbin, Lan Caihe, Han Xiangzi, and Cao Guoshu were eight people.
Now the vast majority of people have only heard of "Journey to the West" and have not heard of "Journey to the East". In fact, there are also two books of "Journey to the West", one is written by Wu Chengen, which tells the story of Sun Wukong's havoc in the Heavenly Palace, being subdued by the Buddha, and later protecting Tang Seng Xitian's scriptures, which have long been known to women and children. Another "Journey to the West" is written by Qiu Chuji, one of the seven sons of Wang Chongyang's disciple Quanzhen, the founder of the Taoist Longmen School, which is about Qiu Chuji's travels to the west and meeting Genghis Khan with his disciples. Qiu Zu's relics are still in the Qiu Zu Hall of Baiyun Temple in Beijing.
Wu Chengen's "Journey to the West" buries Taishang Laojun enough in the section where Sun Wukong havoc in the Heavenly Palace! And describes the Buddha as supernatural with great powers! Taishang Laojun's status in Taoism is very lofty, and it is no less than that of Rulai in Buddhism. The human incarnation of Taishang Laojun, Lao Tzu, his position in the entire history of human thought and civilization, especially in the cultural history of China and East Asia, should be said to be much higher than that of Shakyamuni in India.
The status of the Eight Immortals in Taoism is far less than that of Taishang Laojun, but its popularity among ordinary people is not small at all. Many people have not heard of Lao Tzu riding a green ox out of the Han Valley, but almost all of them know that the Eight Immortals crossed the sea. Taoist temples like Qiyun Temple actually live on the wallets of tourists, and what the common people like to see is what the Taoist priests are willing to dedicate. When I wanted to rebuild the Qiyun Temple, the Guan Zhu and the Dust Dao Chief specially insisted on building an East Tour Hall in the East Courtyard, and invited a second-rate local famous painter in Wucheng to paint a large mural of the Eight Immortals crossing the sea. The characters in the painting are life-size and large, and the eight immortals have their own magical powers and different forms. It is said that the eight immortals on the murals in this hall have their own miracles, as long as the tourists buy the eight immortal talismans in the Taoist temple, select the portrait of one of the eight immortals in the Dongyou Palace, make a wish, and then go outside the hall, and the special Taoist priest is responsible for burning it, you can be like the eight immortals crossing the sea, smooth sailing, and everything will become a cloud. In fact, this is all a trick of Taoist temples to make money.
The portraits of the Eight Immortals are also painted vividly, but they are too lifelike! I think that the painter may have studied Western classical oil painting, and the Eight Immortals were not out of the ordinary, but a group of macho men and beauties, and perhaps they did too much body art. In particular, He Xiangu does not look like a fairy crossing the sea, but like Venus taking a bath. It is said that later, the Jiulin Zen Temple in Wucheng also added a mural of the South China Sea Guanyin on the back of the Buddha shrine in the main hall, and there were not many people in Wucheng at that time, and they also wanted to invite the painter. The presiding officer of the Jiulin Monastery, Zen Master Fayuan, went to Qiyun to see the mural, but after coming back, he changed his mind, and he did not dare to invite the painter to paint Guanyin Bodhisattva anyway! But the monk doesn't like it, it doesn't mean that the tourists don't like it.
On this day, there are still many tourists in the East Journey Palace, where the Eight Immortal Talismans bow their heads and make wishes, and there are still the most people in front of He Xiangu. At this moment, suddenly there was a muffled sound from the entire mural, as if the walls trembled, and then I saw He Xiangu wearing a sheer gauze skirt, and a big hole was knocked out of the thighs, and a person fell in with his back to the hall with a piece of broken bricks and stones! Everyone was startled, only to see a young woman screaming and jumping into the arms of a bald man, looking at the flexibility of the movement, it was as if it had practiced many times.
This person who smashed through the wall and fell into the temple is Ishino!
Everything is born too fast, and it is between lightning and flint! First, I pounced on Zezhong and tried to play a scoundrel, but Zezhong was even more scoundrel than me, and he actually took advantage of the chaos to secretly move the spirit treasure seal, and I don't know what this pig's head thinks? Maybe this decrepit person is more mentally retarded, and he actually hit a mirror with a red light; or maybe I was more lucky, and the blue mirror was self-generated, blocking the red light, and the strange reflection went back to Zezhong, and I was knocked to the ground! Zeren originally wanted to stop Zezhong, but in a hurry, he shot at me and beat me away with a wave of his sleeve. When I landed, I was in a hurry and broke through the wall - didn't I just make a big deal out of it!
I fell down with a pile of dust, masonry, and now I fell into a hall, in front of which was a mural of the Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea, and the lotus flower under He Xiangu was knocked out of a big hole by me, and the light outside the wall shone in. The power of this "wall breaker" is really not small, but fortunately, it did not hurt the people behind the wall. I lay on the ground, shook my head, moved my hands and feet, and felt like I wasn't hurt. At this time, there were all kinds of exclamations and screams from the people inside and outside the wall, and I was about to get up, when I suddenly heard the voices of several people shouting.
"Senior brother is not good! Senior Brother Zezhong held his breath - save him!" This is a little Taoist priest exclaiming to his fellow disciples. Hearing this, I was taken aback, the power of the Zhenling Treasure Seal, I have personally experienced it, and I don't know what the consequences will be if the red light reflected by the Qingshen Mirror in Na Ze is? If there is a good one, will this account be counted on my head? At this moment, I heard a high, high-pitched voice shouting loudly: "Oh no! Something is wrong! Everyone, go and take a look! The Taoist priest of Qiyunguan is beating tourists! Causing deaths-"
This person was full of breath, and the entire Taoist temple heard it! The footsteps of the people poured towards the East Tourist Hall. This sentence seemed to remind me of something? It was as if someone was secretly arranging these things! I simply closed my eyes and closed my breath at the same time, and lay on the ground and pretended to be dead. In the eyes of the tourists around me, it seemed that I had smashed through the wall, struggled a few times, and then lay on the ground and did not move!
The first person to rush to my side was none other than Teacher Liu Fei'er. She came through the hole in the wall I had knocked through, and when she saw me fall to the ground, she didn't know what to do. She lowered her body, took my upper body in her arms, touched my forehead with her hand, and whispered, "Ishino, how are you? Wake up, don't scare the teacher......
Teacher Liu was probably a little frightened, I didn't have a cold, what was the use of trying my forehead? I was half-held in her arms, and my left ear was between her breasts, and I could hear her heart pounding. Suddenly, I was really in a trance, I only felt that all the sounds around me were hidden, and I could only hear this heartbeat in my ears! I smelled the ethereal body fragrance on her body at the end of my nose, and my cheeks were squeezed between her full ** through my clothes, and I was so close to her in reality that I could feel her warmth and softness. This has always been a secret buried in my heart.
My eyes were squinted, and from the slit in my eyes, Mr. Liu's expression was anxious, his face was white, and fine sweat broke out on his forehead. It turns out that she cares about me so much, is she really worried about me? Then even if I am really injured, it is worth it!(Xu Gongzi's note: Don't stink, beautiful, the students who went out on a spring outing were injured, of course the teacher is worried!) Looking at her appearance, I suddenly sobered up and remembered the surrounding environment, in fact, the trance just now was a moment. I can't bear to let her worry so much, but since I want to "play dead", I have to pretend for a while.
I didn't mean to eat Mr. Liu's tofu, but I also have to admit that leaning on her arms feels really wonderful, if it is another occasion, it should be a rare taste in the world. At this point, I can't help but be a little grateful to that Governor Zeren. I really thought of who saw whom, and I immediately saw Zeren.
I saw Teacher Tang grabbing the collar of Zeren's robe and dragging him through the hole in the wall. Old Man Donald came over with a thin and small body, and Zeren was burly, although he had a stunt, but it was not easy to hold Old Man Tang in front of everyone, so he could only drag him away. When I got through the hole in the wall, my head accidentally touched the jagged edge of the hole, and I smashed a few bricks -- this Taoist priest's head is hard enough! Old man Tang saw that I was "unconscious" in Teacher Liu's arms, and he didn't care about reasoning with Zeren anymore, so he quickly let go of his hand and turned down to look at my situation. At this time, the Dongyou Hall was almost overcrowded with Taoist priests and onlookers who had rushed to hear the news, and even the courtyard on the other side of the wall hole was full of people. I saw Zeren standing among the onlookers with an embarrassed face.
