Chapter 42: The Shrine
"Why do I feel as if they are from the White Lotus Sect? When you say that the Green Gang is tattooing a green dragon on their body, then wouldn't the White Lotus Sect be tattooing a white lotus flower? It's quite difficult to tattoo a white lotus, so they chose the Red Lotus?" I suddenly asked He Pingan at this time.
"I have thought about this question, but I have consulted many books. I didn't find that the White Lotus Sect, the organization that fought against the Qing Dynasty and restored the Ming Dynasty back then, had the tradition of tattooing a bloody lotus flower on its body, what's more, even if it did, it wouldn't have been tattooed on its back, it's hard to believe that a man who meets with a woman would have to take off his top in order to prove his identity and give it a look? The ancients weren't that bold back then, okay." He Pingan said.
I nodded and said you say is also, the next is He Pingan drive, we are so bored to rush, my head in the rapid operation, but I always is not understand the second uncle and He Xiaoyu, including Zhuo Anu connection between, if He Xiaoyu and the second uncle is really an organization then, then why He Xiaoyu has to urge me to guard against my second uncle Zhao Wuji it?
It's hard to believe that these organization members don't know each other? That is to say, He Xiaoyu still does not know that my second uncle is actually her own people? Thinking like this, I actually fell asleep. I this person also has a fault is lazy, a lot of really can not think of things I simply do not think about it.
When I woke up again, really do not know exactly what city I am in, I was called up by He Pingan, get off the car after we entered a hotel recuperation, after recuperation to continue to rush, He Pingan's hands holding a map, this map is a topography, it seems to be outlined above the lines and other things are very rough, just I look at the rolling hills, it seems that the lines in the invisible outline of a map, the map is a topography, it seems that the map is a topography, it seems that the lines in the invisible outline of a map, it seems that the lines in the invisible outline of a map. Lines in the invisible outlined the shape of a giant dragon, and on the top of the head of that giant dragon, it is labeled with a lotus pattern thing.
I began to think I don't know the figure just right, in that case also lest I have to drive to catch the road, and then it was too boring, I asked for that one map, a look is really, this figure if you don't look at it as a figure, you may also think that this is a giant dragon that was drawn abstractly.
"What the hell is this? This is a map?" I asked.
"Don't tell me you can't even read this thing, the ancients look at the dragon vein, pay attention to the seven parts of the shape and three parts of the god, the shape of the dragon is even more similar than the god's color. This is a rough, specific after the Canglong footless and so on the detailed division I also do not understand very well, also do not pretend to understand in front of you, but I take this map to find a feng shui gentleman has seen, that feng shui gentleman did not have Huang Lao's reputation, but he told me in words, this is extremely rare ground dragon dragon vein, and the dragon god dragon foot shape and god. The feng shui pattern of this place, burying emperors and generals feel wasted, enough to be used as the corpse of the Golden Immortal of the Great Luo yin land, that is to say, this place is enough to bury the immortal, at that time, I asked him, if this lotus problem is a temple of the gods? Guess what?" He Pingan asked me.
Along the way, He Pingan and I had already mixed extremely familiar, when he said this I hurriedly urged, "Hurry up, what a detour!"
"At that time the feng shui gentleman told me, this place if the burial of people, can ensure that the descendants of the glory of the nine five, this place if it is for the temple, can ensure that the monks molded Buddhist golden body, at this time if it is for the Taoist temple, will certainly make the big real people have a hundred days of ascension of the opportunity, although incense is not flourishing, but after all, there is a real God in the body." He Pingan said.
"So you speculate with this. That temple that Zhang Xianzhong built for his ancestor Zhang Yazi should be here?" I asked.
"For you to even think of this to come, it seems that my speculation is still rather conservative." He Pingan laughed out loud.
At first, I didn't figure out what He Pingan meant by this, and after a while I realized that, daresay this guy was still saying that I was not good in the head, but I found that I was surprisingly speechless, because even if this picture did fall into my hands, in accordance with my character I wouldn't be able to get too much out of it. His ability to promote logic was indeed beyond my reach.
We continued to drive, and when we got to the place where we couldn't use the car, we procured a batch of equipment and chose to walk, and this Zhang Yazi was a real legendary god. We found that Zhang Xianzhong built the Tian Sheng Shrine in Zitong, and there is indeed a Tian Sheng Shrine here, but the temple is too modernized, and is a modern, purpose-built tourist structure, unlike the one we were looking for that disappeared a hundred years ago.
Nonetheless, we played around with this temple built by the descendants, this temple adopts most of the scholars on Zhang Xianzhong's positive evaluation, the land of Ba Shu is full of heroes and heroines, this temple is a stone tablet on the interpretation of Zhang Xianzhong's massacre of Sichuan by the people of Sichuan later to fight with the Qing government for more than ten years to say, if Zhang Xianzhong really killed eight million in Sichuan, almost killed all the land of Sichuan, then later to fight with the Qing Dynasty for more than ten years of military strength! Where did it come from?
So the stone tablet inscriptions in Sichuan that year's tragic phenomenon is attributed to the people of Sichuan died to resist the barbarians into Sichuan, so the Qing dynasty later captured Chengdu after taking the policy of killing all the men, children are not spared, and only left the women, which can even be found in that year's content of the notices: the people and thieves are mixed up, the jade and stone is difficult to distinguish. Or slaughter the whole city, or slaughter men and women, in short, the truth of the matter has been buried in the yellow earth, and history is always written by the victor, when the cause of the Chuan land is no one, the corpses are everywhere, in the end is Zhang Xianzhong or the Qing court, these things have been difficult to prove.
Can have time to play here, that I and He Pingan actually do not panic, in fact, we do not panic, to put it bluntly, about a route we traveled this time, in fact, is also He Pingan on the speculation of He Xiaoyu, and we secretly this time, but also rely on an unknown authenticity of the drawings. What exactly can we get in front of us, for us, we do not have a bottom in our hearts.
Finally, when we go out, worship Zhang Xianzhong shrine, because Zhang Xianzhong does have "evil deeds" reasons, Zhang Xianzhong's deity was molded quite like a devil, and in a corner of the Zhang Xianzhong shrine, there is a blind old Taoist priest, set up a table, the table put a bamboo tube, inside the signatures! Quite a few, I happen to be bored, and look at this old Taoist priest seems to be quite poor look, went over to draw a signature, in fact, now want to draw a signature or because of my mentality is not stable.
Chen Jiuzou followed my second uncle into the mountains, until now is still a deep imprint in my heart.
Shake the sign is very slow, and I think shaking the sign is not as good as hitting the sign, just randomly drew a hand to the old Taoist priest, this old Taoist priest blind, I am also curious about how he interpreted the sign text, who knows that he actually do not use the eye, but with the hand touch, I drew out another child sign to see, found that this bamboo strip above, not the word, but the strange pattern.
"What a difficult to interpret the sign, what a messy thought." The old Taoist priest shook his head and said.
I drew out a hundred dollars on the table, before I also told fortunes, know that as long as one said this, the next may be the letter of the mouth, the heart is inevitably a trace of disappointment, at the moment I am bewildered, incomparable hope that a real high people for me to point out the way.
The power of faith is so, you believe, will be for you in the bewilderment of the light.
I turned to go, who knows this blind Taoist priest but at this time called me, said: "small friend stay, can borrow the left hand to let the poor road a touch?"
I froze, but still stretched out his left hand, this Taoist priest grabbed my hand, gently rubbing, his thumb is very strong, touching on my hand as acupuncture points, so that my whole body is very relaxed.
But just after he so rubbed for a while, suddenly his face changed, said: "Dare to ask the little friend can tell the poor Taoist birth date?"
Now I was even more puzzled, dare I really ran into a real fairy? Or in order to deceive me next and play a good show? I asked, "I was supposed to draw lots, but why do you want my birth date?"
"My friend's palm, the sign, are exceptionally difficult to interpret, how is the fruit of this life? Poor Taoist at this time can not be solved, the birth date and eight characters also please little friend give me." This Taoist priest at this time even a little bit not bashful.
I hesitated for a moment, although the birth date is not convenient to give, I heard my grandfather said, the evil heart of people can use the birth date, and even a hair to harm people, but this blind Taoist gave me a good impression, I am also curious about what he in the end about my life style explanation, just lying in his ear told him.
Who knows that after I finished, this blind Taoist pinch finger counting, face suddenly changed almost trembling asked me: "Dare to ask whether the little friend surnamed Guo?"
