Situ told me that this was something he couldn't understand. If it was a purely Taoist conflict, then he, Tiesongzi, Hu Zongren, and Hu Zongren's masters were all Taoists. Except for Hu Zongren, who was considered a junior, the rest
A few of them can't boast that they are considered leaders in their field. Although the Xuanyuan Society is large in scale, it is based on power rather than strength. If any existing old Taoist priest from the Xuanyuan Society is pulled out,
In fact, they are not necessarily their opponents. But this time the case brought by the Xuanyuan Society was inexplicably involved with an unrelated sect. This was indeed something no one expected.
Situ sighed and said, this can only show that our enemy is hiding it. Regardless of the level of strength, just because they put so much effort into testing Hu Zongren, I think this matter is not that simple. Hu Zongren is so busy.
Now, I have always thought that I was dealing with each other's test. I have a bad premonition. I feel that you two seem to have been taken advantage of. A while ago, we discovered that we had taken many detours, so we returned to the starting point and started again.
When I noticed the layout of this four-sided mythical beast, I had a vague feeling like this. It seemed that the other party felt that we were going further and further away, so it gave us a few hints to deliberately pull us back from the wrong path, and the rest
There is not much time left, so they are starting to get a little anxious to create a new sect for us.
I quickly asked Situ, you are a Taoist, are there any festivals between the Taoist and the White Lotus Sect? Because I thought that since the other party wanted us to do this secretly, in fact, to be honest, it was because of me.
and Hu Zongren, this knife, to eradicate a dead soul of the White Lotus Sect. The White Lotus Sect can catch ghosts themselves. Onmyoji is unique in the world and does not need the power of Taoism at all. In this way, it is unlikely to help. Besides, why do you need me to help?
Come with Hu Zongren? It is more likely that you want to achieve a goal secretly.
When Situ mentioned the idea of this conspiracy to me, I suddenly had a feeling of enlightenment. I realized that we had been following up on the cases provided by the other party, although Hu Zongren and I controlled this process ourselves.
But we have only one purpose, which is to solve the case. People in Xuanyuan Society must understand this moral ideal better than us, so among these twenty-four cases, they only need to provide a contact information and do not have to interfere with our process at all.
Because they know that Hu Zongren and I will get things done even if we are badly beaten. During this period, they just need to know the result that we have already completed, and then give us new cases one after another. So
, even if we have very high self-control, we are still led by the nose by these stinky Taoist priests. Although we cannot say that we can calculate step by step, it forces us to keep moving forward.
Situ said to me on the phone, do you still remember the black mark on Hu Zongren's wrist some time ago? I said of course I remember, and I can still see the mark now. Situ said, if he guessed correctly, from the black handprint
When it appeared, Xuanyuan Society planned to insert the case of the White Lotus Sect into it. At that time, our guess actually deviated from their imagination, so he set up a way for Hu Zongren so that Hu Zongren would not be able to do it.
Don't re-examine, think again, and then get back on track. Situ sighed and said, "It's so sinister, how can such a secret fight end!"
I also want to know that I have been busy with Hu Zongren almost non-stop for more than a year. Maybe it is because I have been in the industry longer than Hu Zongren, and I am starting to get more and more tired. I have talked to Cai Cai countless times.
My sister said that Hu Zongren helped me a lot a year ago. After I finish helping him this time, we will get married and go on trips, and we will stop caring about these things in the future. But in my opinion at that time, this was more like
It's an unattainable dream, a blank check I wrote to Sister Cai.
Situ said that if there is any dispute between Taoism and the White Lotus Sect, it is nothing to talk about. In many major turning events in history, religious figures often played a pivotal role. For example, Zhang Jiao and Wagang during the Three Kingdoms period
Xu Maogong of the village, Qiu Chuji in the late Song Dynasty, etc., but the activity of the White Lotus Sect has only happened in the past few hundred years. Among the techniques of the White Lotus Sect, there are also many fusions of Taoist techniques. Although they worship Buddha, they catch ghosts and draw talismans.
Most of the things were inherited based on Taoist methods. Therefore, when this religion was first established, it absorbed many people from all walks of life, and then it had a larger scale and a relatively complete occult method. In the late Yuan Dynasty,
By the time, the climate has already been formed.
When he said this, Situ suddenly paused for a long time. I thought it was because the signal on my phone was not good, so I called him several times. When I was about to hang up and call him again, Situ suddenly said on the other end of the phone.
He suddenly burst out laughing. So I quickly asked him, have you thought of any good way? Situ said, although I haven't thought of a way yet, I finally want to understand how the White Lotus Sect is mixed.
Come in. I asked Situ to tell me quickly, and Situ asked me, do you still remember that night at my house, when I analyzed the four mythical beasts for everyone, after we connected Hutouyan and Jiangbeicheng,
What did you get? I said of course I remember, isn’t it just Hidden Dragon and Crouching Tiger? Situ said, yes, if you take the word apart, it seems to refer to the two places respectively, but when connected, wouldn’t it mean that
I'm talking about, at the end of this case, will a hidden master or sect appear? How about it being called Hidden Dragon and Crouching Tiger?
Situ said, from this point of view, the emergence of the White Lotus Sect is probably referring to this. Although the White Lotus Sect is not very powerful in the south, it is distributed across the country. If you want to use dragon or tiger to describe this sect,
The strength is not an exaggeration. It seems that we still underestimated one step. I asked Situ, do you know why the White Lotus Sect appeared at this time and why? Situ said, think about it, the White Lotus Sect was in the early days
When, which religion is almost completely consistent with it?
I really didn’t know about this. I rarely talked about this sect in the industry. I was worried that my unintentional remarks would cause unnecessary trouble. So I said to Situ, stop being so secretive and just say what you have to say. Situ
He laughed and said that the White Lotus Sect had a huge uprising at the end of the Yuan Dynasty. The original name of the White Lotus Sect was Maitreya Sect. Although it was a branch of Buddhism, it was introduced to China from ancient Persia and developed most of it.
Its teachings and ideas also have another name, Manichaeism.
I also know about Manichaeism. In Mr. Jin Yong’s novels, Granny Jinhua, the Purple-Shirt Dragon King, is a Persian Manichaeist. If Situ had not told me, I would have thought that this religion only existed in novels. In reality,
It does not exist here. Situ said, and Manichaeism is actually the predecessor of the White Lotus Sect. During the uprising in the late Yuan Dynasty, they claimed that the sky and the earth were dark and the sun and the moon had no light, so they determined to bring peace to the world and let the world see the sun again.
Moon, return to the light. I actually didn’t quite understand what Situ wanted to express, but I still said politely. Situ then asked me, when it comes to the sun and the moon, what do you think of? I blurted out without thinking, the god of the sun and the moon.
Teach, Heimuya, Ren Yingying! As soon as I said it, I felt stupid.
Situ sighed and said, you have read too many novels, and the Sun and Moon God Sect has never existed at all. I said, what can I think of? Situ said, just add the two words "sun and moon" together, and you will know.
.
Ming? Could it be that you are talking about Mingjiao?
I know that Mingjiao really existed in history. Zhu Yuanzhang was a member of Mingjiao, which coincides with the novel. Because of this, after Zhu Yuanzhang conquered the world, he decided to call his dynasty "Ming"
, although various film and television materials and unofficial historical materials in the market have mixed praise and criticism for Zhu Yuanzhang, they have never denied the fact that he is a member of the Mingjiao. However, Situ’s implication seems that the White Lotus Sect is actually the Mingjiao? But
I vaguely remember that after Zhu Yuanzhang came to power, he quickly declared the White Lotus Sect as a cult and wanted to ban it and suppress it. Situ told me that the current White Lotus Sect has experienced some differentiation over the past few hundred years, but in Zhu Yuanzhang's time, it was actually
Integrated with the Mingjiao. The Mingjiao itself is also composed of a large number of sects. After forming a force, it launched political attacks on the authorities, and the religion was used for this reason. People of that era actually combined the White Lotus Sect and the Mingjiao.
It is regarded as the same organization, but there are some differences in the name of the religion. After the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom in modern times, many members of the White Lotus Sect lived among the people and spread out. At first, most of them were concentrated in Shaanxi, and then gradually moved southward, becoming more and more scattered.
During the period of warlord fighting, many of them joined the Ge Lao Hui, which was very bloody in Sichuan and Shaanxi at that time, and organizations such as Yiguandao and Tiandi Hui, which secretly developed among the people. The White Lotus Sect, which inherited the authentic tradition, had secret incense halls and secret organizations.
Although many skills have been lost over the past hundreds of years, they have been relatively pure preserved in places such as Shanxi and Shandong.
Situ said that what was originally a good religion has repeatedly turned into a cult organization due to the suppression of generations. This is why people nowadays look down upon the White Lotus Sect when they talk about it. In fact, they are very talented and powerful.
He must not be underestimated, but he has been looked at with strange eyes by the world for thousands of years, and gradually, it is inevitable that he will become eccentric.
I asked Situ, how does all this relate to what we encountered this time? Situ said, the location where you and Hu Zongren are now is Jiangbei City, not far from you, where we were buried that day.
The grave of Ming Yuzhen being discussed was also a member of the Ming Cult. She and Zhu Yuanzhang were once comrades on the same front. He was not originally named Ming, but because he was a member of the Ming Cult, he named himself Ming.
surname.
When Situ said this, I understood. Jiangbei City is located in the Qinglong position of the four-way mythical beast of that day, and an emperor is buried in this position, the True Dragon Emperor. This emperor happened to be a member of the Ming Sect, and the Ming Sect is inseparable from the White Lotus Sect.
, and the ghost hand we met in the old town of Jiangbei City, judging from the tattoos, is the White Lotus Sect.
In this way, it all seems to be connected together perfectly.
