During The Republic of China period, there were many three religions and nine streams and jianghu warlocks, and today I want to talk about a "celebrity" of the Republic of China period, Liu Congyun.
Liu Congyun
Liu Congyun (nickname: Liu Shenxian)
A native of Weiyuan County, Sichuan, born in the ninth year of Guangxu (1883), he studied in a private school for twelve years at an early age, but he himself felt that he did not have a chance to go to school, so he worshiped a jianghu warlock, Liu Yongkuan, learned some skills of measuring words, divination, and looking, and also called himself "White Crane", and since then he has begun to deceive.
Because after several spiritual experiences, people slowly discovered that this "Liu Shenxian" had some Taoist practices, and after passing them on for ten or ten hundred years, he quickly became famous in Sichuan.
In Sichuan Province during the Republic of China period, it was a mixed land, and many warlords and rich gentlemen competed with each other for control, because the arrival of Liu Congyun became a "fragrant feast" for many politicians.
Liu Congyun's 5 disciples
An Army-level general kowtows to the "God Stick"
Among the many warlords in Sichuan at that time, 5 were liu Congyun's disciples, including Liu Xiang (water), Liu Wenhui (fire), Deng Xihou (Jin), Yang Sen (wood) and Wang Lingji (tu), etc. Liu Congyun also arranged these five according to their surnames according to five elements.
Among them, Liu Xiang, who was a first-class general of the National Revolutionary Army and the chairman of Sichuan Province, was revered as the "King of Sichuan" and was a hero of China's anti-Japanese resistance.
"The enemy army will not withdraw from the country for a day, and the Sichuan army will not return to its hometown for a day."
。
Anti-Japanese Red Army
Although he was an anti-Japanese hero, he was very superstitious about Liu Congyun's feng shui skills, and not only worshiped Liu Congyun as a teacher, but also spent a huge amount of money for Liu Congyun to build a "Immortal Palace", and every time at Liu Congyun's "Immortal Palace", Liu Xiang and all the younger brothers had to kneel down to Liu Congyun to ask for peace.
At that time, a first-class general of the National Revolutionary Army, the chairman of Sichuan Province, knelt down to a jianghu warlock, even now it is very incomprehensible, although Liu Xiang especially believes in Liu Congyun, but not everyone is convinced, of which Liu Xiang has a subordinate, Yan Xiaohu, the commander of the fifteenth regiment of the Second Division, spoke out
"Please kill the demon to Xie Chuanjun, otherwise Sichuan's future erosion will be a hundred times greater than today's"
From this, Yan Xiaohu felt that Liu Congyun was a "god stick".
Although Yan Xiaohu scolded Liu Congyun, Liu Xiang did not tell Yan Xiaohu anything, so it can be seen that Liu Xiang still wanted to use Liu Congyun's spells to fight more victories for himself.
Liu Xiang
Superstitious behavior will eventually be revealed
But after all, superstition is simply nonsense, and Liu Congyun has a "spell failure" under a deployment. In 1934, Liu Shenxian was appointed as the chairman of the "Sichuan Bandit Suppression Military Commission", and regarding the fiasco of the red army in the direction of attack, all departments of the Sichuan Army condemned "Liu Shenxian" for pretending to be a ghost, and Liu Xiang also developed a sense of distrust from Liu Congyun.
In 1936, Liu Congyun fled to Shanghai Beach, and after two years Liu Xiang fell ill and died, And Liu Congyun's former disciples passed on the legend: It was Liu Xiang who drove away Liu Shenxian, otherwise he would not have died.
Because of such propaganda, Du Yuesheng, who was the boss of the Shanghai Youth Gang at that time, also had great respect for him, and at that time, he also played the name of "Xiang Tianxia Corporal", and many politicians and rich businessmen came to Liu Congyun to judge the auspiciousness.
Liu Congyun was arrested
The fate of "Liu Shenxian" is over
But after liberation, the fate of "Liu Shenxian" came to an end, he was arrested in 1953, and sentenced to death for counter-revolution in 1955, with a two-year suspension of execution.
It can be seen that superstitions will never go to the hall of elegance, and he must be greeted by a fair judgment.
