Chapter 171 Water Margin World: Daomen's Plan
It was here that Yang Jian, a great eunuch who would become an imperial eunuch, was disemboweled to death by Li Kui.
At the same time, Lin Lingsu, a traveler from Kinmen, observed the sky at night and discovered that the fortune of the Song Dynasty had reversed. The fortune that should have been the sign of the country's demise suddenly turned into the sign of the rising sun. This was already beyond the time of the founding of the country.
He was extremely surprised by his unique luck. He must have known that the luck of the Song Dynasty had been completely manipulated by this Kinmen feather guest, and the Northern Song Dynasty was in danger of subjugation within these three to five years.
But now his fortune has changed drastically, which makes him unable to accept it.
You must know that he did a major thing to steal the country's destiny for the sake of the prosperity of their Taoism. If the country was destroyed directly, then naturally the national destiny would not need to be changed. But now the national destiny has changed from the setting sun in the west to the rising sun in the east.
It means that the national fortune they stole must be returned, otherwise their goal will be over.
Only those in these Taoist sects know how big of a deal it is, and no one else knows at all.
Their Taoist sect usurped the orthodoxy of Heaven, deprived God Haotian of his throne, and made the Jade Emperor the supreme position of heaven and earth. Moreover, the Jade Emperor's power was quite great, and he held thirty-six
Heaven governs the seventy-two earths. It is in charge of gods, immortals, Buddhas, saints, all things in the world, and the underworld. It has boundless power. It is called the Holy Lord of the firmament and the king of the heavens. It has a wonderful appearance and is solemn. The Dharma body is supreme and rules.
Heavens, rule all saints.
But before the Song Dynasty, there was no Jade Emperor. Everyone worshiped God Haotian, which is what we usually call God. It is also called the Emperor of Heaven and God. The ancients believed that Heaven is the master of all things in the universe and the source of growth and development of all things.
, so it is believed that the Emperor of Heaven is the highest god in nature.
However, starting from the Song Dynasty, emperors of all dynasties believed in Taoism. Starting from the Zhenzong of the Song Dynasty, they continued to add titles and became more complicated. The original Haotian God gradually became the Haotian Golden Tower, the Supreme, Natural, Wonderful, Milo, and the True Jade Emperor, or God for short.
The Jade Emperor is not only welcomed by the Five Elders of the Five Directions, but also assisted by the Four Imperial Palaces of the Golden Palace, the Four Saints of the North Pole who protect him, and the Great Emperor Shenxiao Jiuchen who protects him.
From then on, the heavenly court was like the human court, with ministers, the Jade Emperor, and heavenly soldiers and generals.
Originally, there is no difference in rank and status among the gods. The gods are all incarnations of "Tao" and are models of attaining the Tao. Therefore, it is said that the gods are divided into higher and lower classes. In fact, they are just differences in the depth of their understanding of the Tao. They are all based on
It is for its own purpose to save the world and save people.
However, from this time on, the Emperor of Heaven had a name. His name was Bai Ren. Which one was named Zhang?
Zhang of Tianshi Zhang!
This is a big deal. You should know that during the Three Kingdoms period, when Zhang Wen and Qin Mi were debating heaven, although they asked a lot of questions, when they finally asked whether Tian had a surname, Qin Mi said that his surname was Liu.
, Zhang Wen asked him how he knew it, and the emperor Qin Mi's surname was Liu, so he knew it.
Therefore, according to the tradition of Zhu Xia, God Haotian followed the surname of Emperor in every dynasty. Only in the Song Dynasty, he became the surname Zhang. However, this surname was not the surname of Emperor, but the surname of Tianshi.
Don't say you don't believe it. For a long period of time, Zhang Tianshi in the past has been asking Emperor Song to add titles to God Haotian. But with the addition of God Haotian from the Tianzi family, he became the Jade Emperor of the old Zhang family.
.
And this heaven and earth have become the private property of the old Zhang family, and Zhu Xia's creation of artificial gods also reached its climax during this period.
Don't say that it was Shenxiao Sect and not Longhushan who really settled these things.
You must know that the Shenxiao sect came out of Longhu Mountain. Whether it is Wang Wenqing or Lin Lingsu, these two people are the Shenxiao sect that evolved from Tianshi Tao. What is Shenxiao? It is the existence of heaven since ancient times.
The theory of "Nine Heavens" and "Nine Levels" identifies the highest level among them as the "Shenxiao". He also describes it as follows: "High in the sky, there are millions of people on earth. In the realm of the sky, the blue sky is my disciple. I don't know.
blue sky
, this is where the earth lives. What's more, this true earth is intangible. It is neither existence nor non-existence, the door of all transformations. The clouds form the sky, held by the strong energy. The walking is like cotton, and ten thousand junctures can be supported. The jade platform has thousands of kalpas, and the grand tower
Eight Phi. Brahma Qi is carried by it, although
Gao Buwei. There is true earth inside, and the divine power is solid. The Taiyi Yuanjing cannot be known in the world." It can be seen that Shenxiao refers to the highest fairyland where Taoist gods live. The Taoist priests of Shenxiao named their sect after this, because of its lofty and noble place.
righteous.
The leader of this sect is neither Wang Wenqing nor Lin Lingsu, but the leader, Emperor Daojun, who is Zhao Ji.
If according to the myth, when Zhao Ji named himself the leader of the Taoist Emperor, he would have pulled himself down from the position of the human body of God Haotian in the ninth heaven to the first heaven.
It can be said that when Zhao Ji thought he was going to become an immortal, he threw away his orthodox position, not the orthodox position in the world but the heavenly position.
There are no two emperors in the sky, and the people have no two emperors, but from this time on, there are two emperors, one day and one earth.
Which of these two emperors listens to which one, naturally the one below must listen to the one above. Whoever is above, Zhang Bairen is above.
In the historical world, this is just the evolution history of myths, but in this world where gods seem to exist, this is different. To become a god, you have to rely on your own national destiny.
But a strong national destiny means a strong national power. Once a national destiny declines, the national power will naturally decline.
However, Longhu Mountain has not only been planning for this Heavenly Court for a day or two. It has been planned since before Lieutenant Hong entered the Demon Sealing Hall and released a hundred single eight demon stars.
Once the Eight Generals, or the Demon Star, come down to earth, they will naturally stir up the world, and every move they make shakes the foundation of the Song Dynasty. Why?
The purpose is to make the national power of the Song Dynasty even more unbearable and bring the national destiny to decline. When the national destiny of the Song Dynasty dies, a new dynasty will emerge. At that time, the position of the heaven will be completely determined.
No matter what the name of the new dynasty is, the lord of heaven and earth is named Zhang.
All of this was planned well, and in order to prevent others from discovering the decline of the Song Dynasty, they even used the technique of borrowing luck. This technique of borrowing luck was Lin Lingsu's use of Taoism to destroy Buddha.
He wrote a letter to confuse Zhao Ji. Buddhism harmed the Tao. Although it cannot be destroyed now, he combined and corrected it. He changed the Buddhist temple into a palace, Shakyamuni into a deity, Bodhisattva into a great scholar, Arhat into a venerable, and the monk into a virtuous scholar. All of them remain
Wearing a crown and holding a bamboo slip.
Zhao Ji actually agreed to this matter, and all the edicts were issued. For a time, there were almost no monks in the world.
