Let’s talk about Liaozhai at the beginning, I scared all the fans on the Internet to death

Chapter 122 Wudang Mountain, here I come... (please subscribe)
Wudang has been a Taoist resort and tourist attraction since ancient times.

It's just that Wudang is different from other Taoist sects.

There is not only one sect in Wudang Mountain Taoism, but more than 100 sects.

handed down.

These more than 100 sects were all from the same sect before.

But later, I don’t know why, and it was divided into more than 100 sects.

Originally, everyone was in peace.

After all, Wudang Mountain is so big. Although there are more than 100 sects, everyone is pretty good to each other.

In addition, Wudang Mountain is also a popular tourist attraction.

The travel company has good subsidies for Taoist priests.

This also allows many Taoist priests in Wudang Mountain to cultivate their moral character in a better way.

But recently, more than 100 sects in Wudang Mountain have been quarreling over the issue of worshiping the main god.

"Everyone, I think that despite all the fighting, it is better to worship Sanqing. After all, Sanqing is the ancestor of Taoism, and everyone recognizes it, how about it?"

"Although Sanqing is the ancestor of Taoism, the name of worshiping Sanqing in Wudang Mountain is not justified. There are Sanqing Temple dedicated to worshiping Sanqing. Taishang Laojun's dojo is in Qingcheng Mountain, Yuanshi Tianzun's dojo is in Kunlun Mountain, Lingbao Tianzun's The Taoist temple is in Zhujia'ao, so why do we in Wudang Mountain worship Sanqing as the main god?"

"It makes sense. To worship the main god, it is better to worship the Jade Emperor."

"Fellow Taoists of Yuqing Temple, if you can't worship the Jade Emperor, let us all worship the Jade Emperor. Besides, the Jade Emperor's dojo is obviously in the Jade Emperor Hall."

"Who said that in the Jade Emperor's Hall, the Jade Emperor's dojo is clearly at the top of the Jade Emperor in Mount Tai."

"Look, you said you were in Mount Tai, what does it have to do with us in Mount Wudang?"

"Uh……"

"Okay then, which one do you want to enshrine?"

"I think the Chongyang Master should be enshrined."

"This is not acceptable. Although Master Chongyang founded the Quanzhen Tao and is also the founder of the Quanzhen Sect, we are the Zhengyi Sect. We do not belong to Quanzhen. We are not convinced by the Zhengyi Sect. If you ask me, it is better to worship Zhang Daoling."

"Zhang Daoling is the founder of Longhu Mountain. Although he is also the founder of our Taoist sect, according to what you said, our Wudang Mountain also has an unfair name."

"Let me see, how about worshiping the Four Heavenly Masters?"

"Fellow Taoists of Tianshi Palace, although the four great Tianshi are well-known, their Taoist temple is still not in our Wudang Mountain."

Early in the morning.

The leaders of more than 100 sects in Wudang Mountain were arguing fiercely, but there was still no result.

……

just.

at this time.

The person in charge of the Xuanwu Sect, "Lin Muyang", said: "Fellow Taoists, we have been arguing for so long, you might as well listen to what I have to say."

"Fellow Taoist Muyang, if you have anything to say, just say it."

The heads of other sects were tired of the quarrel and sat aside, wanting to hear Lin Muyang's opinion.

"Actually, I don't have any objections. After all, our Xuanwu Sect is just a small sect and we don't have many disciples. It's not our turn to worship anyone."

"What Taoist Taoist Mu Yang said is obvious. The Taoist sects in the world are one family, not to mention that we are still in the same Wudang Mountain. We are connected by the same spirit, and we are all brothers."

As soon as this was said, everyone felt a little embarrassed for a moment.

We are brothers, we are brothers.

There was such a quarrel just now that if everyone hadn't been Taoist priests, they would have cursed each other.

"That's right, we are all brothers, why bother arguing about this or that."

Lin Muyang also took a sip of tea and said unhurriedly: "Let me show you a video first."

"What video?"

"Teacher Jiang Ning's video."

"Is this the Master Jiangning of the Jade Emperor Palace?"

"Correct."

"This Temple Master Jiang Ning is amazing. He is simply a god. I admire him."

"I also admire that the small Jade Emperor Palace can be built into such a large scale. Speaking of which, so many sects in Wudang Mountain are still making such a fuss here, I feel a little embarrassed."

"Everyone should listen to what Master Jiangning said."

The Taoist sect leaders nodded.

Lin Muyang clicked on this video.

"Emperor Zhenwu was originally named Xuanwu Dangmo Tianzun. He changed his name to Emperor Zhenwu because he avoided the name of the ancestor of the Song Dynasty, Zhao Xuanlang. He was the god of war in the heavens. He once led 30 generals to wipe out all evil spirits in the world. Later, his dojo, Mount Taihe, was renamed Wudang. Mountain means that non-Xuanwu is not enough..."

Jiang Ning’s video is relatively long.

But the leaders of the Taoist sects in Wudang Mountain listened extremely seriously.

Half an hour later, Jiang Ning's video ended.

For a while, no one spoke.

Because there is a lot of information in this video.

First, it is about the origin of Wudang Mountain.

The leaders of the Taoist sects naturally knew that the original Wudang Mountain was not called Wudang Mountain, but was called Taihe Mountain.

But they don't know exactly how Taihe Mountain changed its name to Wudang Mountain.

but.

What this video said is not enough for non-Xuanwu... but it seems to give a perfect explanation.

Although they may not completely believe what Jiang Ning said.

Second.

In the video, Jiang Ning also mentioned.

The dojo of Emperor Zhenwu is in Wudang Mountain.

This was a wake-up call to the heads of more than 100 sects in Wudang Mountain.

The reason why they had been arguing for so long just now.

what is the reason?
The reason.

It’s not that they don’t agree with who the main god they worship is.

Tianxia Daomen is a family.

Sometimes, even if the Lord does not worship someone, everyone will worship each other.

For example, those who worship the Three Pure Ones will also worship the Jade Emperor.

Those who worship the Jade Emperor will also worship other gods.

More incense is also good.

What they struggle with is.

Although Wudang Mountain is famous, it is not a dojo for these gods.

Yes.

The dojo is a very important resource for the leaders of various sects.Because if it is not the dojo of this god, it means that the sect they are in is not the ancestral court of the god.

Take Guanyin Bodhisattva as an example.

Guanyin Bodhisattva's dojo is in Putuo Mountain.

Although all temple gates, including Taoist gates, can worship Guanyin Bodhisattva.

But the ancestral court has always been in Putuo Mountain.

And even if you make offerings, they will only come through Mount Putuo.

Whenever a certain time comes, each descendant must return to the ancestral court to worship.

Let's keep it simple.

The ancestral court is equivalent to the ancestor.

Those who are not ancestral are equivalent to sons, grandsons, and great-grandsons.

This is the embarrassment of Wudang Mountain now.

Although Wudang Mountain is a famous Taoist mountain, it is also a tourist attraction.

Wudang Mountain indeed enshrines many gods.

But no matter how many gods are worshiped, the dojos of these gods are not in Wudang Mountain.

It was embarrassing for them to say that.

The heads of more than 100 sects in Wudang Mountain have to go to other ancestral courts from time to time to worship.

Of course there is no problem with worshiping.

The ancestral court is naturally respected.

But now that more than 100 sects negotiate to worship the only main god, this factor must be taken into consideration.

If they choose a main god that they don't really recognize, then the main god's dojo is elsewhere.

It would be really embarrassing then.

"Fellow Taoist Muyang, you mean that Emperor Zhenwu's dojo is in Wudang Mountain?"

Think for a while.

One of the Taoist sect leaders looked at Lin Muyang.

Lin Muyang replied: "According to Jiang Ning Guanzhu's opinion, it should be like this. However, I have no documentary proof of this. However, I do have a supporting evidence."

"What evidence?"

"Have you noticed that although our Wudang Mountains are divided into more than 100 sects? At the same time, the main gods worshiped by our more than 100 sects are different. However, basically every sect in our Wudang Mountains has worshiped Emperor Zhenwu. It's just that , many times before we didn’t pay much attention to him and just treated him as a minor god.”

This said.

But everyone was shocked.

indeed.

Although there are more than 100 sects in Wudang Mountain, when it comes to Emperor Zhenwu, every sect worships him.

But this offering is not in the way of the main god.

Over time.

Coupled with the series of Tao-killing events that have occurred over the past 200 years, most sects have no idea who this Zhenwu Emperor is.

"Fellow Taoist Muyang, the news you gave is very important. I have to go back and look up the information to see if I can find out more information about Emperor Zhenwu."

"You're right, I have to go back and take a look."

"In this case, everyone should go back and search."

Everyone didn't say much.

But they all returned to their respective sects.

some search.

Although various sects have not found complete information about Emperor Zhenwu.

but.

Information about your sect and my sect is constantly being summarized.

The information about Emperor Zhenwu is becoming more and more detailed.

correct.

Most of what Jiang Ning said in the video is correct.

Emperor Zhenwu was originally named Emperor Xuanwu.

Because the name of the Holy Ancestor of the Song Dynasty was taboo, he was changed to Emperor Zhenwu.

Wudang Mountain is the dojo of Emperor Zhenwu.

……

"Fellow Taoists, looking at it this way, is Emperor Zhenwu's dojo really in our Wudang Mountains?"

"Although I'm not 100% sure yet, judging from the information we have compiled, it should be similar."

"But there's a problem here."

"what is the problem?"

"There seems to be an enshrined Emperor Zhenwu in the Jade Emperor Hall."

"No."

Lin Muyang shook his head: "I contacted the master of Jiangning Temple. Whether in the video or elsewhere, he claimed that Emperor Zhenwu's dojo was in Wudang Mountain. At the same time, their Jade Emperor Palace did not enshrine Emperor Zhenwu. Of course. , even if it is worship. He also pointed out very clearly that the dojo of Emperor Zhenwu is in our Wudang Mountain. With such a big heart, I believe him."

"Indeed. According to Temple Master Jiang Ning, Emperor Zhenwu is the god of war in the heavens and the incarnation of Lao Tzu. He will be the immortal who will take over the position of the Jade Emperor in the future. How could such an important immortal be given over to other Taoist temples if it were someone else? Jiangning is the master of the temple."

"How about we, the Lord God of Wudang Mountain, decide to be Emperor Zhenwu?"

Lin Muyang made suggestions.

Wait a while.

The other sect leaders said: "I have no objection."

"We also worship Emperor Zhenwu, and I don't have any objection."

"Actually, the truth has been revealed. Emperor Zhenwu's dojo is in our Wudang Mountains. If we don't worship Emperor Zhenwu, who should we worship?"

"That's right. Let's stop arguing. From now on, we will worship Emperor Zhenwu as our main god."

"Okay, when the time comes, let's stop running around and worship Emperor Zhenwu at home."

soon.

The heads of more than 100 sects all agreed.

"By the way, we have to invite Temple Master Jiangning to come to our Wudang Mountains."

"Of course. Although Master Jiangning is the person in charge of the Jade Emperor Palace, he does not belong to our Wudang Mountains. But without him, we might still be arguing."

"You're right. Actually, we all want to meet Temple Master Jiang Ning."

"Okay, then next week, we solemnly invite Jiangning Guanzhu to come!!!"

The heads of more than 100 Taoist sects in Wudang Mountain have decided on this.
