Chapter 1052: Three Treasures Relics (1)

"According to my reasons, the eunuch of the Three Treasures was first Muslim, and then turned to Buddhism. Why was his spiritual position placed on a Taoist altar?" Although Mr. Song was ready to answer any questions, Xu Changqing did not directly ask the question he wanted to know most, but instead deviated and tested Mr. Song's answer bottom line.

Mr. Song was stunned for a moment when he heard this. He had just thought that Xu Changqing would ask some secret matters about the secret factory, but he didn't expect that the first question Xu Changqing asked was actually something that even a little eunuch who was not considered a person in the secret factory and lived in the cave world could know.

Although Mr. Song was confused, he still answered Xu Changqing's question in detail. In fact, it is simple and simple to say, and it is complicated to say. The reason why Zheng He was called the eunuch of the Three Treasures was not because his natal Ma Sanbaozhong's homophonic word, nor because he received the honor of the Three Treasures of Buddhism after he converted to Buddhism, but because he was strange and the three souls were one, and each was in charge, but he was not rejected, which was somewhat similar to the Taoist qi transformation and three purity.

The reason why Lan Yu captured Zheng He into the capital was because some experts under Lan Yu's command saw the strangeness of Zheng He and believed that Zheng He was a living treasure and asked him to offer it to Zhu Yuanzhang for credit. However, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't care about this, so Lan Yu handed it over to Zhu Di, who was still the King of Yan at that time as a gift to make friends with Zhu Di.

Zhu Di's initial attitude was the same as Zhu Yuanzhang, and he didn't care about Zheng He. Until Yao Guangxiao saw Zheng He, he saw the strangeness of Zheng He at a glance and suggested that Zhu Di focus on training. Later, in the first year of Zhu Di's ascension to the throne, he would take Zheng He to his disciples and let him convert to Buddhism.

Because Zheng He's soul was three parts, he was able to have different religious beliefs at the same time. After being taken over by Yao Guangxiao, he secretly joined the Wudang sect and learned the true Dharma of Xuanwu. Therefore, Zheng He was a Muslim, a Buddhist layman, and a Taoist in Wudang.

After Zheng He's death, the ownership of his spiritual position also caused some small disputes. Because Zheng He went to the West and made unparalleled achievements. He received the fortune of heaven and earth, and after his death, his soul could be immortal and not enter the cycle of reincarnation. The spiritual position of his spiritual position was his divine realm. The benefits even the top sects in the world of cultivation should be jealous.

At that time, although Muslims had a certain power in China, they were obviously insignificant compared to the Buddhist and Taoist schools, and even some folk religions were not as good as those of them. Therefore, they first withdrew from the competition. The power of Buddhism was generally much stronger than that of Taoism at that time, and Zheng He was also a Buddhist disciple in his public identity. His natal spiritual position should be enshrined in Buddhist temples. However, in the early Ming Dynasty, the court always implemented the policy of suppressing Buddhism and promoting Taoism.

The Buddhist sects were superficially admired, but actually suppressed them. The secret factories in the world of checks and balances were dominated by Taoist power, so in the end, Zheng He's natal spiritual position belonged to the Taoist sect. However, in order not to over-stimulate the Buddhist people, the court did not put Zheng He's spiritual position into the Wudang Taoist Temple, but instead brought it into the secret factory cave heaven, allowing its divine realm and cave heaven to be integrated into one, becoming the guardian saint of the secret factory. In fact, the court at that time was the ultimate benefit.

"The spiritual god of the Three Treasures Eunuch and the Cave Heaven are integrated?" After hearing Mr. Song's words, Xu Changqing couldn't help but wonder, and said, "If this is the case, the cave heaven will never die and the spiritual god will not die. Logically speaking, when I entered the cave heaven, the spiritual god of the Three Treasures Eunuch should still exist, so why can't I feel that there is any spiritual god?"

Mr. Song quickly replied: "That's because the ancestor disappeared as early as the Qing Dynasty."

It turned out that the secret factory cave heaven was too closely related to the national destiny of the Ming Dynasty. When the Ming Dynasty was destroyed, the secret factory cave heaven should have disappeared with the Ming Dynasty. In order to preserve the secret factory cave heaven, Zheng He used all his power to move the cave heaven to Babao Mountain, and used his own divine body as a bridge to integrate part of the secret factory cave heaven with the dragon vein below Babao Mountain, so that the cave heaven could be attached to the national destiny of the Qing court.

However, at that time, Zheng He also thought that there was no dynasty in the world that would last forever. If the Cave Heaven and the Qing court were combined too closely, then when the Qing court was destroyed, the Cave Heaven would be in danger of survival again, and then there would be no second Zheng He to rescue the Cave Heaven. Therefore, when the integration was carried out, Zheng He would more combine the Cave Heaven and the dragon vein itself, rather than the national fortune of the dragon vein. Although doing so would cause the fortune of the Secret Factory to decline day by day and never have a glorious day, it would also allow it to last forever and not perish because of the rise and fall of the dynasty.

After that, the Qing Dynasty was destroyed and the Republic of China was established, Zheng He's arrangement did play a role. The secret factory cave heaven was affected very little, and it also became a shelter for those lonely and helpless eunuchs. At least half of the eunuchs who were dismissed were old and dead in this cave heaven, until the current government appeared.

Xu Changqing asked again: "The current government has destroyed the secret factory and cave world, which is equivalent to destroying your homeland. Don't you hate them?"

"No hatred! Because even if the current government does not appear, the Secret Factory Cave Heaven will disappear." Old Song shook his head without hesitation. Perhaps he felt that Xu Changqing would not believe his words. He added: "There is a problem with the dragon vein in the capital, and the Secret Factory Cave Heaven has also been affected. The one that was originally suppressed in the cave heaven..." As he said that, he paused for a moment, he hesitated and hesitated, but finally continued: "Mr. Xu, since he has been to the cave heaven, I must have seen the Taoist temple next to the main hall, right?"

Seeing the topic around the main thing he wanted to know this time, Xu Changqing also let the flow, nodded, and said, "I saw it! That Taoist temple is indeed very strange in the secret factory cave heaven."

Old Song nodded and explained: "Before the Secret Factory was established, this Taoist temple already existed in this cave. According to legend, there was an ancient demon god in that Taoist temple. Once the cave heaven was destroyed, the demon god would escape and destroy everything he saw."

"Do you believe this legend?" Xu Changqing asked.

"I didn't believe it before, but I believed it later." Mr. Song seemed to recall something bad, his face suddenly became very ugly, and his eyes were filled with panic, and he said, "I have seen the true body and magic of the ancient demon god. Just a glance would have almost scared me to death. If the ancestor had not left a spiritual medicine to stabilize the soul, perhaps the person you are talking to, Mr. Xu, would have been no longer me."

"Do you still remember what that demon god looks like?" Xu Changqing asked in a deep voice.

"I don't remember it! Just when I think of it, I feel the fear of ignorance." The fear in my heart made Old Song's voice tremble slightly, but he still tried his best to make his tone appear stable.

"Have you ever entered that Taoist temple?"

"No." Mr. Song shook his head and said, "Not only I don't have it, but even the predecessors of the secret factory have never been in. Only the ancestor seems to have been in, and left behind a thing related to it. If you want it, I will give it to you immediately."

Although Xu Changqing did not show any abnormal behavior, the careful old man Song felt that Xu Changqing was very interested in the Taoist temple, so he took the initiative to take out the only thing in his hand related to the Taoist temple.

"That's a problem." Xu Changqing did not intend to be polite, and nodded in response.

Old Song turned around and walked out of the room. After a while, he saw him walking in with an antique box and handed it to Xu Changqing and said, "I don't know what is in this box. The forbidden spell on the ancestor is still effective even now, so we can't open it."

Xu Changqing took the box, looked at the seal spell on it, and didn't say much, put it aside, as if he was not going to open it in front of Mr. Song, nor did he intend to let Mr. Song get involved in the matter in the Taoist temple.

Mr. Song was stunned for a moment, but didn't say much. Although he was curious, he could also feel that the secret here was probably very big, so big that he could not bear it at all. If he got involved, he would only seek death. Although he felt regretful that he could not resolve the years of doubts in his heart, he also felt an inexplicable sense of relief. After all, this box that had been passed down since the beginning of the Ming Dynasty was also a burden to him. Now that Xu Changqing took the box away, it was equivalent to letting him loose the burden for many years. At the same time, it also cut off the closest connection between him and the secret factory, which made him, who was proficient in numerology, feel the subtle changes in his own fate.

Although I have already understood the main things, Xu Changqing still has a small long-cherished wish to be solved from Mr. Song, so he asked: "Mr. Wen Chenggong's dragon-slaying technique should also be preserved in the secret factory, right?"

The question raised by Xu Changqing was also not beyond Mr. Song's expectations. He said the answer he had prepared long ago: "The Dragon Slaying Technique is indeed passed down in the secret factory, and it is a single lineage, passed down by word of mouth, without writing. Unfortunately, it has been lost now. The last successor is my master. It is said that the Dragon Slaying Technique should be taught to me, but I finally refused."

"Why?"

Unexpectedly, Mr. Song blurted out: "I'm afraid of death."

The dragon-slaying technique is a method that goes against the will of heaven. This is inevitable. However, what Xu Changqing heard from Mr. Song’s words was not about shortening his life, but another meaning.
