Chapter 871: Ciyuan Avenue
After leaving the small ravine where Xiaoli was, Li Bing and others were eager to find a place to stay, but unexpectedly the car veered off the road and kept looking north for a long time before they saw a small town.
The exhausted people quickly found a hotel and got a room. After washing up, everyone couldn't sleep anymore. They gathered in Li Bing's room to talk about today's events.
Shi Liya said curiously: "What happened today is really strange. What one person and one ghost told Xiaoli was almost exactly the same, and they were all related to the old man Songyang. Brother Zhang, this old man Songyang must also be a Taoist. Have you heard it before?" Said
Zhang Yuanshan shook his head and said: "Ashamed, I really didn't know that there was such an old man Songyang. However, Xiaoxia and Zhang Ping mentioned to Xiaoli that old man Songyang was a reclusive master of Ciyuan Pavilion, and he also Are there any evil-proof Buddhist beads and evil-repelling corpse-removing charms from Ciyuan Pavilion? I don’t know what kind of place Ciyuan Pavilion is. Why haven’t I heard of it before?”
Zhao Waner hesitated and said: "Could Ciyuan Pavilion be our Ciyuan Pavilion in Shanghai?"[
Zhang Yuanshan suddenly became curious and said quickly: "Wan'er, is there a Ciyuan Pavilion in Shanghai? Can you tell us about this Ciyuan Pavilion?"
Zhao Waner said: "I don't know if the Ciyuan Pavilion is the Ciyuan Pavilion that Xiaoxia and Zhang Ping mentioned. It's just that I found this Ciyuan Pavilion while shopping with my classmates in Songjiang before I met you."
"My classmates told me that there are many exquisite zodiac jades inside that can ward off misfortunes and ward off evil spirits. They kept urging me to go in and buy one. You see, this is it." Zhao Waner took out a jade zodiac ox from the neckline after saying that and it was covered in crystal green. Everyone's eyes dazzled
Zhao Wan'er said: "My classmate told me that the word 'ci' in Ciyuan Pavilion is taken from the Buddhist term 'Bodhisattva saves people with a compassionate heart like a ship, saving people from the sea of life and death'. 'Yuan' is taken from "Zihuazi Dao" "Human Energy" If you keep the Yuan Yuan, you will keep it; if you don’t keep the Yuan Yuan, you will abandon it. This is the great way."
"The combined meaning of Ci and Yuan is that the Dao of Compassion and the true nature of being a good person are in line with the way of the world. Tiandao Pavilion is originally a house with more than two floors before it can be called a Pavilion. Later generations refer to the residence. The original meaning is the place where the Dao of Compassion and kindness are preached to save people's lives from hunger. This is the literal meaning of Ciyuan Pavilion"
Shi Liya came and said anxiously: "Wan'er, this Ciyuan Pavilion seems to be closely related to Buddhism and Taoism. Maybe it is really the Ciyuan Pavilion we want to know. Wan'er, do you know what Ciyuan Pavilion is?" Who did it? Tell us the origin."
Zhao Waner said cheerfully: "When my classmates and I entered Ciyuan Pavilion, we saw the introduction in the store. We looked at it with interest for a while. If you still remember something, I'll give you a rough introduction."
During the Southern Song Dynasty, Master Jiaomu, a well-known warlock, was the adviser of the national hero Zhang Shijie of the Southern Song Dynasty. At the end of the Southern Song Dynasty, the Yuan soldiers invaded the South China on a large scale. Xiufu, Zhang Shijie, Su Liuyi and others escorted the Young Emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty, Zhao Bing, to stationed in Xinhui Yashan and established a base camp here. Zhang Shijie led the soldiers to carry out large-scale construction. There are more than 3,000 military houses and more than 30 campsites.
One day, Zhang Shijie was annoyed by the name of the main hall. Master Jiaomu named it "Ciyuan Hall" and named it the place where the young emperor Zhao Bing and Queen Mother Yang listened to political affairs. Later, it was destroyed due to the war.
In the fifth year of Emperor Xianzong's reign in the Ming Dynasty, Master Jiao Kui, a successor of Master Jiao Mu, was impressed by the kindness of Empress Dowager Yang, the courage of Zhang Shijie, and the righteousness of Wen Tianxiang. He used Qihuang's technique to borrow Empress Dowager Yang's righteousness and entrusted his dream to Mr. Chen Baisha, a famous Neo-Confucian at that time.
Chen Baisha dreamed of a woman all in white standing in front of the Dazhong Temple with a dignified demeanor and a sad voice saying to him: "I have been alone for thousands of miles and have traveled to the mountains to protect the Song Dynasty. Now I am in trouble. Can Mr. Piaoyi help me?"
When Chen Baisha heard that it was Empress Dowager Yang, he knelt down quickly and was about to start playing, but the woman disappeared. Mr. Chen Baisha had never forgotten Empress Dowager Yang's dream for many years. In his later years, he finally got the opportunity to advise on the construction of the temple.
The Ciyuan Temple historic site was completed in the winter of the Jiayin Year of the Tiger. There are three main halls, three east and west wings, and nine rooms in total.
After several dynasties, the Ciyuan Temple was ups and downs and replaced. The existing temple was renovated in 1995. Most people remember the history. Loyal people and the Mother of the Nation (Empress Dowager Yang) are worshiped every year. The virtues of the ancestors are demonstrated. It is also worthy of Quanxia.
Jiaomu is the descendant of Master Jiao Kui, but people dare not forget the meaning of Ci Yuan. He has been doing good to people for generations, eliminating disasters and helping people, Guigu Qihuang's technique. As for today, Feng Shui culture has a resurgence. The descendants of the Jiao family feel that it is necessary to update
Use family legends on a large scale to invite deities to avert disasters for destined people.
Master Jiao then built his own Ciyuan Pavilion to arrange the stems and branches, inheriting the techniques of Li Xu in the late Tang Dynasty, and combined with Western astrology to help people in the world solve the problems of destiny arrangement and pray for blessings.
Under the call of Master Jiao, Ciyuan Pavilion attracted a group of people who studied Feng Shui culture. They searched ancient books and repeatedly practiced and worked hard to find some methods to follow the heaven, promote people, prosper the family, increase officialdom, and ensure peace.
Zhao Waner rubbed the jade pendant in her hand and said: "Ciyuan Pavilion calculated the wealth and lack of the five elements of each zodiac sign in the corresponding year based on the Heavenly Stems and Eight Characters, and used unique mascot ornaments and bracelets to supplement or restrain them to reduce disasters for the destined people.
It has the effect of removing evil spirits and increasing fortune and wealth, so I bought this jade pendant on the advice of my classmates.”
Zhang Yuanshan said: "The Heavenly Stems, Earthly Branches, Five Elements and Eight Trigrams are all ultimately attributed to the mutual generation and mutual restraint of the Five Elements. The basis of the theory of the Ten Gans and the Five Elements is also the Yin-Yang and the Five Elements. Everyone knows that A, B, Wood, Bing, D, Fire, Wu, Ji, Earth, Geng, Xin, Metal, Ren, and Gui belong to Water.
The theory behind the Five Elements: Wood generates fire. Fire generates earth. Earth generates metal. Metal generates water. Water generates wood. At the same time, wood controls earth. Earth controls water. Water controls fire. Fire controls metal. Metal controls wood. Based on this premise, everything can be classified into these five categories."
"You can often hear that someone has a lot of wood. Maybe it's because he was born in the spring. Spring is assigned to the wood category here. Similarly, various things in food, clothing, housing and transportation can also be classified. For example, chickens are golden and white, which is gold. South Asia weather
There is more moisture and less gold, so you can easily find that Thai Indians especially like to wear gold."[
"Wan'er bought this jade pendant for this reason. It seems that Ciyuan Pavilion is really the one we want to know. That old man Songyang should be one of the experts."
