The legend of the king of crossing

Chapter 338 Miao Guardian

The monk mentioned by Tian Jing gave me the impression that he was an underground worker. I said, "The wandering monk, the traveler Fuyan, Tian Jing, what are the characteristics of this person?"

"Returning to the emperor, this person calls himself 'Fuyan', dressed as a walker, tall and handsome, and his accent is a typical Sichuan dialect,"

"The wandering monk who is proficient in medicine comes from Lin'an," I repeated in a low voice, and suddenly thought of Master Lianzhen who showed me physiognomy at Yanfu Temple. He was also the only monk I had contact with in Lin'an, but his accent was completely different. No, what Lian Zhen spoke was a standard northern dialect, completely different from the Central Sichuan dialect.

According to Tian Jing's narration, this wandering monk was either a spy sent by a hostile country, or a spy of the rebels. This situation was often mentioned in the spy war books of later generations.

"Tian Jing, have you met this painter named Fu Yan in Miao Village?"

Tian Jing thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "No, Your Majesty, if Fuyan's name is true, then his identity can be verified from the certificate issued by the government."

The so-called Duyi is a certificate issued by the government when monks and nuns became monks in ancient times. It is equivalent to the ID card of a monk. It is said that the Duyi began in the Tang Dynasty during the Tang Minghuang period. In the Song Dynasty, Dudu became one of the sources of income for the treasury. I don’t know who from the Northern Song Dynasty Starting from the emperor, the government had to charge a certain fee when issuing degree certificates. At that time, the court believed that monks and nuns were exempted from taxes after they became monks, and they could get money for nothing, so it was normal for the court to charge degree fees.

In the Southern Song Dynasty, Emperor Gaozong continued this practice, and all the subsequent emperors copied it, and it became more and more severe, making the situation of selling degree certificates in the entire Southern Song Dynasty better than that in the Northern Song Dynasty. As long as the court was short of money, it would print a large number of Duyi was sold for money. According to historical records, Jia Sidao did reselling Duji.

For monks and nuns to become monks, the Song Dynasty had strict regulations. Anyone who wanted to become a monk could become a monk. He had to apply first, and after being approved by the government, he had to pay a certain fee before he could get a degree.

There is also related content in "Water Margin". Lu Zhishen beat Zhenguanxi to death with three punches. When he fled, he met Zhao Yuanwai. I have made a wish," so Lu Zhishen took this bought certificate to become a monk and became a regular Buddhist.

"If the name of Fuyan is true, then of course we can find clues from the certificate, but I think that the name of Fuyan is most likely forged." I know that spies will not leave their real names .

Tian Jingdao: "Well, it's very possible,"

"I know about this matter. As long as this Fuyan is unruly, he will show his feet sooner or later. Tian Jing, I also think there is something wrong with this person. If you encounter this person again, you will first detain him. People, you don't have to be polite, "

"Yes, Cao Min understands,"

"I saw Mr. Tian in Zhenxi Village this time, so I won't go to the Miao Village. I will definitely come again after I defeat Mongolia. Also, this is a private visit in a micro-service. As long as you know my identity, don't tell me. Anyone, externally, my identity is Mr. Huyan of Lin'an Shifeng Trading Company, you can call me that as well. As for Tian Fang, you have to discipline him well, the reception reveals things, and don't let him destroy the Han and Miao ethnic groups in Zhenxi Village The good atmosphere that was finally established between them, "

"Yes, Your Majesty,"

"If you encounter injustice from the government again, let Tian Zuiyan tell Wen Tianxiang, I will solve it according to the law, but you can't gather crowds to make trouble again,"

"Your Majesty, the grassroots dare not," Tian Jing hesitated for a moment, then continued, "Your Majesty, the grassroots still have a small wish, and I don't know whether to say it or not."

I was just about to get up and leave when Tian Jing said that I still had a wish, so I said, "Let's talk."

"Caomin has two sons, the eldest son, Zuiyan, whom the emperor has seen, and the second son, Xiuyan, who just turned 20 last December. Since childhood, Jiang Yang, the chief wizard of the Miao family, has designated him as the successor of the next generation of great wizards. , My Miao family has a traditional custom, that is, the selected great wizards must go to Jiuli Mountain in the depths of Xiangxi to accept the guardian's nine tests at the age of 59. If they pass, they will inherit the previous generation The guardian's position becomes a new generation of guardians. The first of the nine tests is to accompany the saint to travel the world before entering the mountain. The higher the saint's cultivation level, the more likely he will pass the first test. Great, the grassroots believe that the emperor is the head of today's saints, so the grassroots boldly beg the emperor to let the dog repair his face and follow the emperor, "

"Guardian, does your Miao family also have a guardian," I said with interest when I heard it, "Mr., please tell me what is going on with this guardian first."

"The emperor also knows about the guardian," Tian Jing said in surprise.

"Well, the Han people also have the saying of guardians,"

Tian Jingdao: "Since the emperor knows, let the grass people simply say that the guardians mentioned by the grass people are the patron saints of my Miao family. Only the three leaders and great wizards of my Miao family know about this. It has been passed down from ancient times to ancient times. Chiyou, the god of war in the period, was the ancestor of the Miao people. Thousands of years ago, the great god Chiyou led the 72 tribes of Jiuli to the north, and fought the Huaxia tribe led by Yanhuang in Zhuolu. After the defeat, Chimu, the younger brother of the great god Chiyou, took his place. Chi You, who was seriously injured, continued to fight. He was killed by Huangdi's generals Ying Long and Feng Hou in the Huangyang Mountain in the west of Zhuolu. In Jiuli Mountain, due to the heavy injuries suffered in the battle with the Yellow Emperor and the long journey, the great god Chi You was never born after he lived in seclusion, and the ancestors of my Miao family were also torn apart because of the lack of a leader. Migrating around, about 200 years later, during the period of Tang Yao (Yao and Shun), the first guardian appeared. This guardian led the Miao people to establish the Sanmiao Tribal Alliance. Several great migrations have formed the pattern of today's Miao people. It is said that the last time the guardian appeared in the world was more than 300 years ago. According to the great wizard Jiang Yang, in the past 300 years, there has been no great wizard among our Miao people. Can be favored by the guardian, so the successor of the guardian is always vacant, "

Tian Jing sighed and continued: "For 300 years, there have been great wizards who went deep into the mountains at the age of 59 to accept the guardian's nine tests, but most of them couldn't even find the location of Jiuli Mountain. Your Majesty, according to The great wizards who have entered Jiuli Mountain said that the location of entering Jiuli Mountain is constantly changing,"

"The position has changed," I said in surprise, and then I remembered that the entrance to the inner hall of the Valley of the Kings is also the same, and it is not fixed.

"Yes, Your Majesty, even the great wizards cannot understand this point,"

"Well, this may be due to spatial dislocation,"

Tian Jingdao: "Spatial dislocation, what is this?"

"This is a profound science and technology theory. It is somewhat similar to the fate that humans often say. If you can find the entrance, it means that you have a relationship with the guardian,"

Tian Jingjing nodded, and then narrated: "Twenty years ago, the great shaman Jiang Yang happened to be 20 years old at that time, and he also entered the deep mountains in western Hunan. Your Majesty, the reason why he was 59 years old was because the great god Chiyou happened to enter Jiuli Mountain. At the age of 59, Grand Master Jiang Yang has both civil and military skills, a rare talent among my Miao people in a hundred years."

Hearing this, I couldn't help asking: "Has Wizard Jiang Yang found Mount Jiuli?"

"I found it, but, according to the great wizard Jiang Yang, he failed even the first test. However, the great wizard Jiang Yang got the guardian's will, saying that although his cultivation power is extremely high, it is just that his wisdom root is not enough. , even if he can pass the next seven tests, he will not be able to accept the ninth test, which is inheritance. Your Majesty, when the Great Wizard Jiang Yang left Jiuli Mountain, the guardian of the previous generation rumored that he would go to the Miao village here, saying that Miao In the village, a baby with deep roots of wisdom is about to come to the world, who can be the successor of the great wizard. If there is a coincidence, a saint will pass by Zhenxi in 20 years. You only need to follow the experience of that saint, and you will be able to cultivate the roots of wisdom to perfection."

"Am I the saint the Hmong guardians say they are," I thought to myself.

Guardian of the Han nationality, guardian of the Miao nationality, if I am the saint in the words of the guardian of the Miao nationality, then I am really the savior of the Huaxia clan. The first thing I feel is not excitement, but a deep feeling that the burden on me is getting heavier and heavier. The heavier it is, if I can't lead the Great Song Zhongxing, then I will be a sinner of the Chinese nation. Knowing the historical process, of course I know the experience of the next 800 years, the unification of Mongolia, the entry of the Qing Dynasty, the invasion of Western powers, Japan also plunged our country into the eight-year arduous war of resistance.

Tian Jing seemed to see through my thoughts and said: "In today's world, there is no saint more than the emperor, the emperor, members of my Miao family have never admired foreigners, but the grass people admire and trust Mr. Wen very much, and Mr. Wen is very respectful of the emperor. Admiration, that is absolute piety, so the grass-roots people think that the emperor is the saint that the guardian said, so they boldly beseech the emperor, "

"Tian Jing, tell me about Tian Xiuyan's situation."

"Yes, Your Majesty," Tian Jing said proudly, "Your Majesty, Gouzi Xiuyan has practiced with Wizard Jiang Yang since he was a child. It's not that the grassroots boast. In terms of martial arts, there is no one in the entire Miao village, including the other two villages. The enemy of Gouzi, besides, Gouzi has also learned Miao family medicine, calendar, etc. from the great wizard, and the grass people believe that under the teachings and instructions of the emperor, Gouzi will definitely become a good helper of the emperor."

I am very interested in matters related to the Guardian. Since Tian Xiuyan is the chosen successor of the Guardian, no matter which clan of Guardian he is, as long as he is a member of China, he will definitely become my strong support, and I also You can learn more about the Guardian from him.

I thought for a while and said, "Tian Jing, where is Young Master Ling now?"

"Go back to the emperor, it's in the village,"

"Is that so, why did Young Master Ling not live in the Miao Village?"

"Returning to the emperor, this is the intention of the great wizard Jiang Yang. Since December [-] last year, after the dog turned [-], he has lived in Zhenxi Village. It is also because of this that Caomin opened the Jieyi Building here. ,"

"Alright then, let someone tell him to come here to meet me, oh no, meet Mr. Huyan,"
