When it comes to chronology, the Central Plains still uses the emperor's reign name. In fact, someone has long ago proposed that the birth year of Taishang Daozu should be counted as the first year of the Taoist sect, and then the AD chronology should be used uniformly.
It's just that when it comes to specific discussions, there are big differences within the Taoist sect.
To put it simply, it is impossible to determine the birth year of Taishang Daozu. The Li family's opinion is naturally based on the birth year of Laojun. Laojun is Li Dan, also known as Taishang Laojun, who is also the great sage ancestor of the Li family.
, this can further strengthen the legitimacy and sanctity of the Li family.
However, people from other Taoist sects expressed different opinions. It is true that Li Dan is the Supreme Taoist Patriarch. However, before Li Dan, the Taishang Daoist Patriarch had also descended into incarnations many times, such as Guangchengzi who enlightened the Emperor of Heaven, and the one who transformed the Three Pure Ones with one breath.
The founders of the Three Qing Dynasties can all be regarded as the supreme Taoist ancestors. There is also a legend that the Taoist ancestors are the ancestors who created the world. There are so many supreme Taoist ancestors, why do they choose to use Li Dan’s birth year?
In short, Li Dan is the Taishang Taoist, and the Taishang Taoist is not just Li Dan.
The Li family naturally did not recognize it. They admitted that these were also Taishang Taoist ancestors, but it was during the Li Dan period that the Taoism was founded, so Li Dan was the main one. Moreover, in order to integrate Buddhism into the Central Plains, the Taishang Hua Hu Jing clearly stated
The Taoist ancestor who rode an ox out of seclusion and became a Buddha was Li Dan. The Emperor Xuanyuan of the Daqi Dynasty was also conferred the title of Emperor Xuanyuan by Li Dan.
Since it is the Taoist chronology, of course we must choose the founder of the Taoist sect.
Having said this, the Zhang family has something to say. It is true that Taoism in the broad sense was founded by Laojun, but in the narrow sense, Taoism was established by Zu Tianshi. Zu Tianshi's teacher is Taishang Taoist. That is not Li
Damn it, after all, Laojun is no longer alive at this time and is another incarnation of Taishang Taoist. If you really want to choose the ancestor who founded the Taoist sect, it should be the Taishang Taoist who preached to Zu Tianshi.
The Li family and the Zhang family were at loggerheads again, with one "son" and the other "disciple" refusing to give in to each other.
At this time, Quanzhen Taoism is also about to speak. The so-called "Huang Lao", "Lao" is Li Laojun, and "Huang" is the Emperor of Heaven. The Emperor of Heaven was still before Li Laojun. It can be seen that the origin of Taoism is earlier, dating back to the era of Emperor of Heaven.
.At that time, it was Patriarch Guangcheng who enlightened the Emperor of Heaven. Patriarch Guangcheng was the incarnation of Taoist Patriarch and was enlightened by Patriarch Sanqing, so we should start from Patriarch Sanqing.
The three parties quarreled fiercely, and in the end the Li family took a step back. Since they could not determine the Taishang Taoist ancestor, let's use Xuansheng's head office. There is only one Xuansheng, so let's start from Xuansheng.
For Taiping Dao, Xuan Sheng is also named Li. If the Great Saint Ancestor is not good enough, then the Holy Ancestor will be replaced.
Xuansheng is absolutely correct within the Taoist sect. Of course Zhengdao and Quanzhen Tao cannot openly oppose it, so other reasons were put forward.
Of course it is good to say that Xuansheng is the right one, but Xuansheng is the ancestor of Zhongxing. Starting from Xuansheng, doesn’t it negate the previous history of Taoism? It’s inappropriate.
Quanzhen Taoism is certainly good when it comes to Xuansheng, but starting from Xuansheng, the Taoist sect has less than three hundred years of history. There is no way to compare with the Confucian sect, and there is no way to compare with the Holy Court. It makes the Taoist sect look like a nouveau riche and cannot highlight the Taoist sect.
The profound background is inappropriate.
The three parties argued back and forth, but in the end they couldn't reach a conclusion, so they simply put it aside and continued to use the emperor's reign title.
After watching for forty-six years, the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month had just ended. Qi Xuansu officially devoted himself to the work of searching for Paititi. He set up his base camp at Huon Manor outside Cusco.
It was the former base camp of Hu En A Khan, and he had a great influence here. Qi Xuansu naturally transferred Hu En A Khan to sit here and help him find Paititi.
However, Qi Xuansu did not mobilize too many people from other places, mainly because he did not want to attract too much attention, so Qi Xuansu came to Cusco nominally because of the human-faced fruit tree.
When leaving Dan Xiushan, Qi Xuansu specifically told Tantai Ying, leaving Lin Bufan alone until he took the initiative to confess.
Qi Xuansu said that he left Lin Bufan alone for three days, but actually left it for more than ten days. Until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, he ignored Lin Bufan.
During this period, Lin Bufan was also a little desperate. The fifteenth day of the first lunar month was of special significance. The Gong family did not take any action and did not rescue him before the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. There was no bail to restrict his movement. Not only did Lin Bufan
In the eyes, even in the eyes of outsiders, it seems that the Gong family is giving up on Lin Bufan.
As for how Lin Bufan knew that the Gong family had not taken any action, the reason was simple. Juesheng Church's isolation review was said to isolate the inside and outside, but with the power of the Gong family, it was not difficult to pass on the news.
Under normal circumstances, the message delivered does not need to be complicated. As long as the people inside know that a rescue has been launched outside, the family has made arrangements, and there is no need to worry about anything, the people inside will naturally feel confident and can continue to hold on without speaking.
Of course, the message conveyed can also be a threat, for example, if he confesses, his family will not be protected. Usually it will be more subtle, telling the people inside tactfully that his family has been "taken care of", and the people inside will naturally understand, maybe
Will look for opportunities to commit suicide.
For such a long time, the Gong family has not conveyed any news, which is an attitude in itself.
Lin Bufan was naturally desperate.
The so-called prescribed time, it can be seen that the time is not unlimited. If the time limit is exceeded, then it will be a lot more heavy when dealing with it in the future. For example, returning the stolen money is like this
Therefore, if the stolen goods are returned within the stipulated time, it will be dealt with leniently, but if this time limit is exceeded, it will be a different set of standards.
This also adds a lot of psychological pressure.
Qi Xuansu's so-called leaving him alone was essentially putting pressure on him. This is why Qi Xuansu hurriedly reported to Gong Da Zhenren. The key to killing first and then showing off is not "killing" but "playing". Only in this way can the superiors recognize the established result.
Qi Xuansu was not completely sure of persuading Master Gong Da, so he said at the time that this was a dangerous military expedition. Fortunately, the result was good, Master Gong Da still had a plan, and for the sake of the overall situation, he approved Qi Xuansu's approach.
On the other side, Tantai Ying also made a special trip to Miss Gong. After all, they are "good sisters". Sisters are like siblings and men are like clothes. Isn't he just a stinky man? At worst, he can just find another one. I don't know.
How did Tai Ying do her job? Maybe it was because Miss Gong thought that Tantai Ying was not a man yet, so it was balanced. Anyway, Miss Gong didn't come to trouble Qi Xuansu.
Qi Xuansu was really a little afraid that a female Taoist friend would block his door. Her face was not good-looking, and there were enough gossips about him. While saying that he was a soft-boiled man, she was also spreading rumors that he had numerous harems, and there was another woman who would cause trouble.
Others thought that he always gave up.
Miss Key Palace is not an ordinary person. She cannot be beaten, and she is on someone else's territory, so it is not easy to rush. As for being reasonable, based on Qi Xuansu's experience in dealing with Qiniang, he does not have high hopes. There are many
Female Taoist friends may not understand the truth, but pretend to be confused because they understand. You can't wake up a person who is pretending to be asleep. Zhang Yuelu is still too little. .??.
If this was on his own territory, Qi Xuansu would certainly not be afraid. His Taoist companion was the legendary Zhang Yuelu, his mother-in-law was the female Taoist leader Cihang Zhenren, and Qiniang was also a woman. Regardless of the rules and systems of the Taoist sect, anyone could come forward at will.
The problem can also be solved, the key is not to leave a trail behind.
Although Qi Xuansu was going to find Paititi, he did not give up on Lin Bufan. He could not place all his hopes in one direction, so Tantai Ying was responsible for Lin Bufan's line.
Qi Xuansu himself wants to go deep into the jungle of Cusco.
Because of the scale problem, the approximate location marked on the map only looks like a circle, but the actual area is very large, so Qi Xuansu first asked Hu En Ahan to conduct some peripheral investigations to narrow the scope. Qi Xuansu did not say that he wanted to find Paititi.
He only said that he was looking for some relics from the past, and he suspected they were related to the insect-men.
Hu En'ahan did not know that Qi Xuansu had a map of Paititi, nor did he know that Paititi was around Cusco. He did not suspect that he was there, but he sent people to search for various relics according to Qi Xuansu's order.
Hoon'a
Khan is the biggest local snake in Cusco. He has many old subordinates and old friends here, so the search went smoothly.
After Hu En'ahan reported the locations of these ruins to Qi Xuansu, Qi Xuansu marked them one by one on the map, surveyed them personally, and then eliminated them one by one, slowly narrowing the scope.
This method is not clever, but it is very practical. The only drawback is that it requires a large number of manpower to conduct large-scale investigations.
The people sent out by Hu En'a Khan were all locals. They were not only familiar with the terrain, but also familiar with various stories and legends. Many of them were passed down orally, such as where there was an abandoned temple, where there was a tomb, and where there was a trial.
The land probably has a direction. It would be up to outsiders to find it, such as people from the Holy Court, who would be headless in such a large rainforest.
This undoubtedly greatly reduced Qi Xuansu's workload. After others found it, Qi Xuansu went straight to the target to have a look, saving time in the middle of the search. He could see several places in one day. If he had to search slowly by himself, it might take several days.
Find a place.
By chance, some traces of insect-men were found in several ruins. This corroborated Qi Xuansu's words and convinced everyone that they were looking for the legendary Paititi.
After searching bit by bit for about ten days, Qi Xuansu had roughly determined the scope. Paititi should be located in a huge valley, surrounded by mountains. If you want to enter it, you need to climb over the surrounding mountains.
High mountains. When such a place was underdeveloped, it would have been okay to settle in a corner. After all, it was easy to defend but difficult to attack. Nowadays, in order to develop the economy, transportation has become the first factor. Such deep mountains and old forests will be eliminated, so Xidaomen has to build a new port.
As for Yujing, Daomen has forcibly established an air transportation system with many flying boats. Most countries do not have the strength of Daomen. Even Yujing has begun to build acropolis one after another in recent years.
At this time, Qi Xuansu no longer needed help from others. He searched the remaining area himself. He only asked Hu En'ahan to closely monitor the surrounding activities.
Although this rainforest is dense and dangerous, it cannot stop Qi Xuansu. He just needs to fly over.
Qi Xuansu took Wuniang with him and flew at a low altitude, passing through many rainforests. There were many ferocious beasts here, which were no less than the innate humans. However, they were afraid of the strong blood energy in Qi Xuansu's body, so they lurked and did not dare to show their heads.
Soon, Qi Xuansu saw the mountains in the distance, towering into the clouds, and white clouds surrounding the mountains, as if they were giving the mountains a white crown of fragrance.
If we walked here from land, I don’t know how long it would take and how much effort it would take.
