Jieyang Zhang fortune-telling

In the early years, Jiangshan people always put a door god on their two doors during the Spring Festival to drive away evil spirits and pray for peace. Where did this custom originate? It is said that it was promoted by Emperor Taizong, the emperor's old son. Legend has it that the old dragon of Jinghe specializes in sex in the sky. On this day, he went looking for trouble and became an old man. He went to Chang 'an Avenue to find Zhang, a fortune teller, and happily asked him if it was raining. And said, "Count it for me! Efficacy, ten times to give silver; If you are not smart ... ""How will you stay? " "Break your sign, please get out of Beijing. No more fortune telling! " "In that case, I have to deal with you!" Zhang Chou made an abacus and said, "That's it. The wind will start tomorrow morning, the clouds will disperse at noon, and it will rain at noon. " Hearing this, the old dragon couldn't help laughing; "Really? How heavy is Meg's rain? " Zhang said: "The fields are scorched, and farmers have been looking forward to the rain for a long time. Three points in the city is enough, seven points outside the city! " The old dragon couldn't help laughing, thinking, the rest depends on you. It's my business to decide whether it will rain or not. He said to himself, "If you want to be accurate, don't forget about tomorrow's rainfall. I'll get even with you." The next day, it really rained However, it happened that it was an hour later than Zhang's calculation, but it was windy after 4 o'clock, cloudy at noon, and finally it rained. The rainfall has just turned around: there are seven points in the city and only three points outside the city. As soon as the rain stopped, the old dragon looked for an account. Zhang sat firmly on the crosshead without changing color and said, "If you are willing to make fun of your life, why talk about cleverness?" Hearing this, the old dragon was shocked and asked, "What do you mean?" "You violated the sacred life of the jade emperor, and you made dogma. I will ask you at three o'clock tomorrow afternoon. You are dying and stubborn! " It turned out that this fortune teller was none other than Zhang Tianshi of Longhushan, Jiangxi. He had already seen through the true face of the old dragon. Ironically, the old dragon thought he was an ordinary person and made a big joke, which made him suffer. The old dragon was so scared that his feet went soft and he knelt down: "Sir, help! Only blame the old man for not knowing Mount Tai. I wanted to play a joke on the old man, but I didn't expect it to be a violation of dogma. Please be merciful and save my life! " "Help, I'm hopeless. But I can show you the way. " "Please advise!" "Tomorrow's supervisor, is today's emperor command prime minister Wei Zhi. If you want to die, you must plead with the emperor. Please ask the emperor to make a love for you in front of Prime Minister Wei, and don't be afraid to save you. " Lao Long thanked Zhang and went to intercede. In addition, Li Shimin, Emperor Taizong, dreamed of a man at night. He was a leader who claimed to be the old dragon of Jinghe. Because the rain broke the dogma that day, it was time for Prime Minister Wei Zhi to supervise the beheading and ask the emperor to intercede for him and save his life. As a benevolent monarch, Emperor Taizong saw what he said piteously, thinking that since Wei Zhi was in charge of beheading, he expected that this situation could be tolerated, so he readily agreed. The next day, early in the morning, Emperor Taizong summoned Kevin·Z to the temple to discuss. I thought to myself: if you behead at three o'clock in the afternoon, I will hold you and let you go, and you can still behead! Wouldn't that save the old dragon? So when Wei Zheng came, he talked with him. From bringing peace and stability to Qiang Bing, a rich country, to helping farmers and enterprises. Until the end of the afternoon, just ordered people to spread out the chessboard and play with Wei Zhi. Walking, walking, suddenly, Emperor Taizong encountered a difficult chess game, so he made up his mind, did not dare to put down his chess pieces rashly and thought in a hurry. There, Wei Zhi waited and waited, but he was sleepy on the chessboard. Here, when Emperor Taizong struggled to keep his ground, he suddenly heard a snore. Looking up, Wei Zhi was already sleepy. Emperor Taizong thought that the Prime Minister was busy with state affairs and was sleepy at night, so let him remember more! So just sit there and wait patiently. After waiting for a while, I saw a layer of sweat on Wei Zhi's forehead. Emperor Taizong thought that the Prime Minister was really exhausted and sweaty when he was sleepy, so he couldn't help but pick up a fan to help him fight. Only three times, I saw Wei Zhi take a deep breath and wake up slowly. Seeing that the emperor was fanning himself, he quickly apologized and said to Emperor Taizong, "I was sleepy just now and dreamed that I had become a dragon. I was called by the Jade Emperor to be a supervisor and beheaded, and I was going to chop the old dragon in Jinghe at three o'clock at noon. When the time came, Lao Long didn't want to surrender and fought with the minister. Just in the middle of our fight, suddenly a golden dragon came to help me cool down, and I subdued the old dragon and beheaded it. " Hearing this, Emperor Taizong's heart ached. According to Wei Zhi, the Golden Dragon and the Three Winds are the three fans I fanned just now? Emperor Taizong regretted his death and felt that he had broken his promise to Lao Long. At night, the old dragon came to Taizong with a bloody faucet: "You promised to save my life, but you didn't keep your word. You also helped the three gusts of Qinglong, and I was beheaded by Wei Zhi. I won't let you go when I die, and you won't die well! " He said he would come to arrest Emperor Taizong. Emperor Taizong suddenly woke up from a nightmare and jumped with fear. He repeatedly shouted, "A ghost! There are ghosts! " When these people arrived, nothing was left; The men left, just lying down and closing their eyes, they saw the old dragon coming to look for him with a faucet. For three days in a row, Li Shimin was fascinated and the Eucharist was not safe. The civil and military officials are anxious to say hello. Emperor Taizong said, "Lian has led the army since he was nineteen years old, and he has not seen any evil. Why did you see a ghost today? " Weichi Gong said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. Long live is the only thrill. You can't test the evil spirits of the imp! " Li Shimin said: "I founded Jiangshan, killing people like hemp, am I still afraid of ghosts?" I just dreamed of ghosts at night, so I didn't want to sleep well. How can people go to court during the day when they have no spirit? "Qin said," don't worry, your majesty. I'll stay at the palace gate with Jingde tonight, and see what sneaky people dare to disturb you! Hooray! Sure enough, as soon as it was dark, Qin and Weichi Gong were all dressed up, one with a mace and the other with a whip, and one left and one right stood outside the palace gate. "。 Gee, that's it. It's full of energy. There was no movement all night, and Taizong was sleepy. Since then, Qin and Weichi Gong have been guarding the city gate day and night. It is strange that as long as they go, they will be safe at night. But in this way, both generals have suffered, so don't feel anything for a day or two. If you want to go to court every day, you have to guard the door at night, even an iron man has to eat. Seeing that his two personalities were hard, Emperor Taizong looked for Wei Zhi to find a way. Wei Zhi said, and found a portrait of the palace, according to their faces, draw it down and stick it on the gate. A try really worked, and I didn't want the two generals to work hard every night. Since then, these two images, together with Qin and Weichi Gong, have been called "door gods", which means the exorcism of God. Qin left is holding a mace, called; Weichi Gong is on the right with a whip, and his name is from.
