Master Maoshan

"Abandoned disciple from Maoshan? Master, since the uncle has been abandoned by the mountain gate, why should we go to him?" I secretly thought that the cheap uncle must have violated some religious rules, otherwise, how could he be rejected by the Maoshan sect? abandon it?

Under the cold moonlight, the mountain road is rugged, and my master and I walked extremely hard. It was a secluded mountain, just the two of us, walking on the mountain road non-stop. When the master is together, naturally there will be no fear anymore.

When Master heard my question, he sighed softly: "It's not that Shanmen abandoned him, but he voluntarily abandoned Shanmen and became an ordinary secular man. Chu Qi, speaking of your uncle, as a teacher, I should also talk to you." Let’s talk about the history of our Maoshan sect, everyone in the world thinks that our Maoshan master is a cheat, but they don’t know how the legendary past of our Maoshan righteous way can be easily revealed to others?”

Seeing the posture of the master sighing and sighing, I can't interrupt his words. I can only listen to him tell the origin of the founding of the Maoshan sect and the extremely legendary rise and fall history--

The Jinling of Juqu is a blessed environment for cultivating truth and a spiritual market for becoming a god. This is Juqu Mountain. During the Western Han Dynasty, Mao Ying, Mao Gu, and Mao Zhong, three brothers of the Mao family in Xianyang, Shaanxi, came to Juqu Mountain to practice Taoism and do good deeds, benefiting the world and future generations. To commemorate the merits of the Mao family, Juqu Mountain was changed to Sanmao Mountain, referred to as Maoshan, and the three brothers of the Mao family were also called the founders of Maoshan Taoism by later generations.

Tao Hongjing, a hermit from the later Qi and Liang Dynasties, established the Maoshan School of Taoism by combining Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism. Since the Tang and Song Dynasties, Maoshan has been listed as "the first blessed place and the eighth cave" of Taoism!

Talented people of Maoshan sect came out in large numbers, and its influence expanded day by day, and it became more and more prosperous in Tang and Song Dynasties.Maoshan Taoists Wang Yuanzhi, Pan Shizheng, Sima Chengzhen, Li Hanguang, etc. in the Tang Dynasty, especially the Maoshan School masters in the Song Dynasty, were awarded the title of "Mr." by the Song Dynasty.

From the Southern Liang Dynasty to the Northern Song Dynasty, the Maoshan School flourished for hundreds of years, and has always been the mainstream of Taoism. After the Southern Song Dynasty, it gradually declined, but it is still passed on. The other name with Maoshan as the development center was passed down to later generations. Since the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the inheritance of Taoism was strongly rejected by the rulers, so many schools emerged with Maoshan, but the "Shangqing Dadong Zhenjing" of Maoshan sect has been passed down to this day. The famous Maoshan sect has 45 generations of successor masters. The first generation is called Taishi, the second is called Xuanshi, the third is called Zhenshi, and all subsequent generations are called grandmasters.

In the late Qing Dynasty, the orthodox Taoist dispute between Maoshan Xianzong and Tantric Buddhism gradually emerged. Xianzong adhered to the "Shangqing Dadong Zhenjing" and focused on thinking about spirits, alchemy, and chanting scriptures, while Tantric Buddhism focused on practicing secret techniques, jade charms, The ancient curse is hidden from the world, why are there fewer and fewer real Taoists today, but those fake Taoists and real gods are becoming more and more rampant, so that the world's misunderstanding of Maoshan has deepened, and the good Maoshan sect has been completely changed , The miasma, tracing the source, can not escape the mysterious and legendary occult dispute.

The so-called Mixian Controversy is the continuous open and secret struggle between the two major branches of Maoshan, Xianzong and Tantric, for the orthodox sect of Maoshan. If there is any reason for the fight, there is no other reason, but the two major sects do not have the orthodox sect. Speaking of the sect of the head of the sect, we have to mention the word "Mixian". Originally, since the founder of the Maoshan School founded the sect, there was no distinction between Xianzong and Tantric Buddhism. It is precisely because of the hundreds of years of rise and fall Historically, in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, monks were often excluded, and it was also the period when the Maoshan School was in decline.

The disciples of Maoshan had no source of survival, and they were dilapidated and withered. The disciples either traveled to other places, or carried the secret scrolls to establish their own sects. , Ruyimen, Jiulongzong, Dragon and Tiger Sect, etc., but they all form their own factions, while the two major branches of Tantricism and Xianzong that are still attached to the Maoshan portal have been looking for the eight treasures of Maoshan Zhenshan, which was famous for a while. , and the secret token "Mystical Compass".

I widened my eyes slightly, and said: "Master, then you came to Shibali Village this time because you thought you were wrong in Maoshan... One of the tokens of our Maoshan School secretly shows the compass in Shibali Village?"

The master shook his head when he heard the words, and said: "Not only was I wrong, but Gu Tan who is now in charge of Xianzong is also wrong, but there is no reason for us to be wrong, alas! I really don't know where the occult compass is now. ..."

I hurriedly asked: "Master, do you know what the esoteric compass looks like? For example, is it square or round, is it thin or thick, is it black or white, is..."

Master's eyes widened immediately, I stuck out my tongue, and swallowed the words I hadn't finished speaking, only to hear Master reprimand: "The esoteric compass is one of the tokens of the sect master, you must not use words to tease it, but it's true. Speaking of which, I really don’t know what a esoteric compass is like. I once heard from my master that the esoteric compass has surpassed the word “everything” because it is neither gold, wood, copper, or iron, and is not among the five elements. , but can accurately calculate the trend of the five elements, with it, and find the other eight keepsakes, the Maoshan sect can be carried forward..."

I opened my mouth slightly and said, "And then?"

A crisp sound of "Boom!" appeared right on my head, and I gritted my teeth in pain, but saw Master glared at me again, and said, "How can there be so many then! Hurry up!"

"Huh?" Suddenly, the master stopped, and saw him stretch out his hand to touch his forehead, and then put it in front of his nose to smell it, and immediately said angrily: "Bird droppings?! Why is there still bird droppings in the middle of the night? "

Immediately, the master pinched his fingers and counted, but he was even more puzzled and said: "Today is Bingzi Day, it is not against me, how could it be... the seventh day of the lunar month, you... you should walk a little slower, and If you go too close, even the gods will be unlucky."

After finishing speaking, Master gave me an apologetic smile, and immediately walked forward quickly. I was left behind by a large distance, and I yelled at Master's back in annoyance, and then followed helplessly. Who let others be masters? . .

After leaving the small mountain village and the place where I have lived for 16 years, I realized that the outside world is so big that I can't imagine it. The lonely life since I was a child has trained me to be very sensitive to all harsh environments. On the basis of quick adaptation, Master Yang Yuanshan and I walked for three days and two nights. Seeing the third night gradually approaching, I couldn’t help but gasped and shouted: “Master, why do we always walk on mountain roads and old forests, so we can’t walk for a while? Do you want to rest your feet on the way?"

In front of him is the endless deep mountains and old forests. Although the moonlight is getting brighter and clearer every day, it is difficult to see the sky outside through the layers of branches and leaves. Hearing my voice, Yang Yuanshan stopped and turned to look Just like me, he smiled calmly and said, "Is this enough? If someone needs your rescue from a hundred miles away, if you delay the big event like this, won't it ruin the reputation of my Maoshan sect?"

I felt aggrieved and said: "Master, how can I compare with your old man with my body? Besides, you still have such a powerful magical body protection. Now I... only have one talisman drawn on my belly! "

As I said that, I was really tired, so I found a big rock and sat down, and unbuttoned my jacket. I didn’t know it, but I was so frightened when I saw it. There was a strange amulet under the spell The fist-sized black dot is like a mark. I am too sensitive to black now, especially this black mark that I don’t know when it will appear. It seems that there are thin black threads around the mark that are trying to move outwards. spread, I shivered suddenly, and hurriedly shouted: "Master, look at what this is?!"

Yang Yuanshan walked to me and looked at it carefully, then stood up and said, "It's the evil spirit suppressed by the talisman of the real master of heaven. If the amulet disappears, the evil spirit will instantly control your mind, and the consequences will be disastrous ah..."

I jumped up when I heard it, and said in a trembling voice: "Master, you see, we have walked for three days in a row, and I have sweated a lot. This amulet is about to fade away. Why don't you give it to me again?" Draw one?"

Yang Yuanshan shook his head and said, "Spells don't have the power to carry on, so drawing now is useless. You still have four days. We need to find a place to help you get rid of these evil spirits as soon as possible!"

After finishing speaking, Yang Yuanshan glanced at the pitch-black deep mountain forest in the distance, then nodded and said: "Well, if we don't stop on the way, we can reach Gupao Town in two days. Your uncle lives in Gupao Town. We When you come to him, you can rest with peace of mind, and then I will get rid of the evil spirit for you, if your uncle is happy, maybe the thing I thought about may come true, hehe, let's go."
