It is said that during the Zhenguan period during the Tang Dynasty, the capital city of Chang'an was plagued by drought for many years, the red land was thousands of miles, everywhere was dry and dry, drought and flood, the crops were desolate, and the river water also dried up... So the people of Li began to pray for rain every day, and put their hopes on the gods but they could not wait for a single bit of rain.
At this time, it happened that there was a person named Oniguzi Immortal Who calculated that there would be rain at three o'clock in the afternoon the next day, three o'clock inside the city, and seven o'clock outside the city. The Jinghe Dragon King, who was in charge of the rain, did not believe it, and made a bet with the Ghost Valley Immortal Master, he returned to the house to open the wind and rain to check, the next day there was indeed rain, and the book was clearly written: the clouds were cloudy at the time of the dawn, the thunder was in the middle of the day, the rain did not stop at noon.
Even the raindrops of the rain were not bad at all what the Ghost Guzi Immortal Master said, and the Jinghe Dragon King's heart was terrified of the competitive psychology to tamper with the rain thinness, changing the three points inside the city to seven points, and the seven points outside the city to three points...
On this day, the sudden rainstorm in the city caused many houses to rush, the drainage system in the city was not perfect, and heavy rain began to appear and drown many people, but only three points fell outside the city, the crops were still dry, the seedlings withered, and the grains were not harvested.
This incident also frightened the Jinghe Dragon King, although he knew that the situation was not good, but he hid it with a bit of luck and did not report it, but it was! You don't mean that others will hide it for you, there is no impermeable wall, so there are immortals who go to the boss and beat his little report!
After this matter was reported to the Jade Emperor's boss, the boss was furious and rose up, so he surrendered and beheaded the Jinghe Dragon King to show the public.
When the Dragon King of Jinghe learned the news, he was extremely afraid that he could not escape this fate, so he immediately entered the palace and begged The Tang Emperor Li Shimin to save his life, hoping that he could speak, (at least the human emperor did not pursue the words, presumably the Immortal Emperor would not pursue it), Li Shimin remembered that he was the founding father of the country, and Enzun was exempted from the death penalty. At this time, the old Dragon King was relieved... At least you don't have to die...
The next day, Li Shimin designed to invite Wei Zhengcheng, who was executing the beheading, to enter the palace to play chess, and did not say it thoroughly, in order to delay the execution time, because Li Shimin knew that as long as the time passed, and did not behead the old dragon king, then the Jade Emperor would definitely be extrajudicial.
So Li Shimin played chess slowly... The time had come, Wei Zheng had no way to escape, and he also knew the emperor's intentions, and at the end, he fell asleep, the Yuan God was out of his mind, and he dreamed of beheading the Dragon King of the Jing River. In an instant, the bloody dragon head rolled into the palace.
This is an allusion to Tang Xiang Wei Zheng (Wei Xuancheng) dream of slaying the dragon king, the classical masterpiece "Journey to the West" is roughly the same as the legendary Wei Zheng dragon slaying story.
Regardless of the folklore legends, novels, and dramas, the performance is about the same; then we have to mention a topic related to it: the door god has become the reason why Qin Shubao and Wei Chigong have become.
Because later, the ghost of the Dragon King often went to Tang Taizong to cry. So the portraits of Qin Shubao and Wei Chi Jingde were posted outside the palace gate, and the ghosts did not bother, so the door gods became Qin Shubao and Wei Chigong.
This story seems fatalistic, and the moral is probably not difficult to understand. As for Qin Qiong and Wei Chigong becoming door gods, the Zen people's "Sui and Tang Dynasties" is roughly recorded that Li Shimin appointed Qin Shubao, who held a whip, as guards in order to dispel ghosts, and later became a door god. However, the ghosts here are the souls of the soldiers who died in battle when Li Shimin, the King of Qin, led his troops to unify the world from his youth and destroyed the crowds, so there is no story of Wei Zheng slaying the Dragon King.
Folk opera version of "Wei Zheng Chop Dragon", during the Zhenguan period, the Jinghe Dragon King disguised as a Xiushi and a Bu Gua to bet, in order to win this bet, after accepting the Jade Emperor's Holy Will, deliberately changed the timing and rain points of the rain, but it was found that the Hou Dragon King had the guidance of the Bu Gua and must not let the "Wuqu Star" Wei Zheng cut the dragon.
Chang'an has long been plagued by drought. The Jade Emperor learned that the Dragon King had rained three feet. Yuan Tiangang calculated that it should be three heavy rains in the beginning of May, and the Dragon King and Yuan Tiangang made a head bet. Later, it rained according to the Jade Emperor's will, and the time and quantity were no different from the results of Yuan Tiangang's bugua. The little dragon girl asked the dragon king to change three feet to six feet, who knew that the people suffered floods. The Jade Emperor ordered Wei Xuancheng to slay the dragon, and Xiaolongnü begged the King of Tang to ask the King of Tang and Wei Zheng boyi to drag him down, and Wei Zheng unconsciously fell asleep and beheaded the Dragon King in his dream.
As for why Wei Zheng was able to behead the Dragon King and still behead the Yuan God, who was the Buddha-figure? Let's take a look together;
Taoist legend "Gao Shang Jade Emperor Ben Xing Jing" is the Tianshu Shang Xiang Zhang Liang passed down.
The "Jingshifang Lane Chronicle" contains: "Hongren Wanshou Palace, built in the forty-third year of the Wanli Calendar, is the Wenchang Hall, and the Forehead is Chongzhen Baoyun." On the left, Zhuge Kongming was enshrined, and his title was Tianshu Shangxiang. On the right, he believed in the country with the title of Tianshu (天書左相). ”
Zhuge Wuhou was also the Tianshu Shangxiang, and Wen Tianxiang was the Tianshu Zuoxiang.
Jiang Ziya is also the Tianshu Shangxiang, Wei Zheng is also the Tianshu Shangxiang, and among the Tianshu Shangxiang, the most popular is Zhuge Wuhou.
