Does Chinatown Detective 2 really exist?

There is a saying about the origin of art and life, and there is also a saying that real life is bloodier than movies. It can be seen that the things created in movies are always based on life experience, just like everyone imagines aliens and monsters, they are always inseparable from the existing images in their minds.

Then, from this perspective, perhaps Fu Yong is not as superstitious as he thought, and seems to be able to get out of the shadow of "legend".

Popularize the history of ofuda a little.

Nowadays, when many people talk about ofuda, most of them will think of Ching-Ying Lam, while others will think of maoshan taoist. In fact, the history of ofuda is much longer than you think. To put it simply, luring demons in Taoism is also developed by absorbing many folk spells. Before the establishment of Taoism, Fuwa had developed well. According to the limited history, Fuxi should be a great wizard who originated in ancient times, which should be earlier than the period of Three Emperors and Five Emperors, and the origin of the great wizard is closer to the myth system. Before Shang and Zhou Dynasties, there were mature thoughts and practical actions of seeking immortals and visiting Taoism.

After the Shang and Zhou Dynasties, many ancient Taoist schools and spells have been lost among the people, and Lao Zi continued to develop some Taoist thoughts after rummaging through ancient books in the Zhou Dynasty library, and gradually re-formed the ideological synergy of scattered alchemists and gas refiners. It was not until the Han Dynasty that the organizational form of Taoism was formed by the opening angle of spreading beans into the army and Zhang Daoling, who founded Zhengyi School. Later it was divided into Maoshan, Lingbao, Jingming, Wei Qing and other tribes. At present, the most familiar is Wisdom Fofo Agbo in Maoshan.

How does ofuda play its role?

Some people may have heard that the door gods of industrial printing in printing houses can't be pasted up at all, and they must be hand-painted by people who have passed on. As for why, the general reason is that the portrait painter has to recite some spells or images silently, and only by integrating ideas into the portrait process can it be effective.

The same is true of Taoist symbols. It is useless to download your own paintings from the internet or simply print them out. There must be an inheritor, and what is drawn in a certain way and method has certain effect.

Think about it. Why are ancient alchemists also called alchemists? Why do the East worship fire and the West worship fire? Why do some symbols have to meditate on the image of ancestors or the taboos of ancestors to be effective? Where does magic power come from? To answer these questions, it is estimated that it will involve the most basic subversion of the three views in the long river of human history. The core idea of thinking is the interaction and inheritance of ideas, sounds and the material world.
