Yuhuangshan Wealth _ Yuhuangshan Temple

Why can Yuan Shoucheng work out the contents of several letters of the Jade Emperor?

In The Journey to the West, Tathagata not only "can read about Sunday" and "know about Sunday all over", but also "can widely know the species of Sunday". As soon as the Buddha's mouth is opened, the "unrecognizable" 62 macaques such as Tiangong, Hell and Guanyin Bodhisattva are distinct, as if everything in the three realms is moving in a static way.

Predicting the future seems nothing new to immortals. For example, the mysterious Zen master Wu Chao can learn from the "evil fox" that Tang Priest will meet in the future. Elves are all over the city, and the demon owner lives in Yingshan. Tiger sitting in the piano hall, surging waves as the main book. Lions and elephants are kings, tigers and leopards are kings. "Wait, tell the Monkey King what's going on.

Not only immortals can do it, but monsters also have the ability to predict the future as long as they are spiritual. For example, Liu Er's macaque "is good at listening to sounds, can observe reason, and knows the past and the future."

As a mortal, Mr. Yuan Shoucheng, who sells divination in Chang 'an, can "look at the future and the past like a moon mirror; Several families are prosperous, and several are damaged, such as mirrors. Knowing bad luck, breaking death speaks of life. 」

In the rain gambling contest with Jinghe Eight Rivers Governor Jinghe Dragon King, who is in charge of the rain situation in Chang 'an, Yuan Shoucheng calculated that "it will open at dawn tomorrow, thunder at dusk, and rain at noon, totaling three feet, three inches and eight minutes". Unexpectedly, he and Jinghe Dragon King suddenly received an order from the Jade Emperor of Jinyi Lux, and the hours were exactly the same.

However, after King Jinghe deliberately "changed the time to score points" in order to win the gambling game, he actually calculated that King Jinghe "violated the jade emperor's letters" and was "afraid of knives" on the dragon table, and "he should go to Cao Zheng's place at 3 o'clock tomorrow afternoon", which was another "money" given by the jade emperor's fairy messenger.

Yuan Shoucheng is just an ordinary fortune teller. Why can he predict what the Jade Emperor will do?

The Journey to the West didn't elaborate too much on Yuan Shoucheng's background, saying only that he was "uncle of Mr. Yuan Tiangang, the supervisor of many dissenting Confucian".

Who is Yuan Tiangang who is in charge of observing astronomical phenomena, calculating solar terms and making calendars? Astronomers, astrologers and forecasters in the early Tang Dynasty.

Yuan Tiangang experienced three major forecasting events in his life, which made him a bright pearl in the forecasting field.

First, I once saw Wu Zetian wearing men's clothes as an infant, and asserted that Wu Zetian "has a dragon pupil and a phoenix neck, which is extremely expensive!" If you are a woman, be the son of heaven ",which has indeed come true;" Secondly, both Li and I were looking for a cemetery, but they ran counter to each other and found a place. Li buried a piece of imperial money as a souvenir, and Yuan Tiangang inserted a jade phoenix hairpin from Wu Zetian as a souvenir. When the emperor visited, Feng Chai of Yuan Tiangang happened to be inserted in the money hole where Li buried the money. This place is Liangshan Ganling, which is also the best preserved imperial mausoleum in China. Thirdly, Yuan Tiangang and his disciple Li He wrote a wonderful prophetic book integrating astrology and the Book of Changes. It is said that Li used it to predict the national fortune of the Tang Dynasty, and actually predicted the changes after the Tang Dynasty for more than a thousand years. Yuan Tiangang didn't give up until he got rid of the warnings that "it's better to pass the buck than to retire" and "the secret can't be revealed again". This is the pushback diagram, which can clearly understand the world.

There are also legends, of course, that Yuan Tiangang was the son of Emperor Wen of Sui, Emperor Wendi of Sui Dynasty, and was raised by Yuan Jia only because the Queen Dugu was bent on killing her mother. After studying martial arts in Emei Mountain, he successively studied under Li Bo, the father of Li, and Sun Simiao, the king of medicine, and became an all-encompassing god in astronomy, geography and medical astrology.

Nephew Yuan Tiangang is so extraordinary, and uncle Yuan Shoucheng should be even more extraordinary. However, there was Yuan Tiangang in history, but no Yuan Shoucheng could predict the jade emperor's motives.

The Journey to the West set Yuan Shoucheng as a virtual character in order to be a bridge between King Jinghe and Emperor Taizong. Taking gambling on the rain as the fuse, King Jinghe was killed in Wei Zhi's dream because he changed the rainfall privately, and told King Jinghe to go to Emperor Taizong for peace, which led to Emperor Taizong's unsuccessful commitment to rescue and went to hell. After returning to Sun, he decided to hold a land and water conference to push Tang Priest to the stage of learning Buddhist scriptures.

Is Yuan Shoucheng really that god? Can he predict the decrees of the Jade Emperor? Did he really ignore the old adage that secrets should not be revealed? Lao Song believes that as long as Guanyin Bodhisattva is in Chang 'an, everything will become magical. After all, the result is what she wants most, and she is the final winner.

Yuan Shoucheng, like Jackson Wu Chao, had disappeared into the Westward Journey world after he had finished fighting King Jinghe.
