Why can you kill the Dragon King of jingjing river in your dreams? In addition to the Jade Emperor Jin Zhi, Wei Zheng also had an identity: angels in the human world
Impulse is the devil, which can make people think disordered, lose reason, lose correct judgment, and create irreparable situations.
Blind willfulness, the consequences are equally serious, and they can also make the gods and men of the Three Realms unbearable.
The Dragon King of the Chang'an Jing River of the Tang Dynasty, because he heard the report of the night fork patrolling the sea, there was a clever Yuan Shoucheng in Luoyang City, who did not care about his identity as the Dragon King, insisting on transforming into a white-clothed Xiushi, wanting to compete with Master Yuan!
The Dragon King of Jinghe is not only the king of one river of the Jing River, but also the grand master of the Eight Rivers and the Great Dragon God of Si Yu in the Three Realms. Whether it rained or not, whether it rained or not, he knew it all in his heart.
But Yuan Shoucheng's bet with the Jinghe Dragon King was: "When will it rain and how much rain will it rain"?
The Jinghe Dragon King returned to the Dragon Palace, and when he was triumphant, he suddenly heard the voice of the Golden Cloak of the Heavenly Court, asking him to quickly receive the Jade Emperor's will.
"Ordered the governor of the Eight Rivers, drove away the thunder and taught the electricity; the Ming Dynasty Shi Yuze, puji Chang'an City."
Coincidentally, the time and number of rains that the Jade Emperor ordered the Jinghe Dragon King to rain were exactly the same as what Yuan Shoucheng in the gambling game said.
The Jinghe Dragon King was suddenly frightened and scattered, shouting: People are not as good as heavenly calculations, how can they not lose?
However, the Jinghe Dragon King was somewhat unwilling, and for the sake of so-called face, he finally adopted the suggestion of the Dragon Army Division and privately changed the will of the Jade Emperor, violating the Heavenly Rules.
Betting to win is to win, but the willfulness of the Dragon King of the Jing River leads to a series of consequences.
Knowing that he had violated the Heavenly Rules and was about to be taken to the Vortex Dragon Platform to be beheaded, the Jinghe Dragon King first came to Li Shimin's palace and begged the emperor to ask Wei for mercy.
Later, after being killed by Wei Zheng in his dream, the unjust soul did not disperse, entangled the Tang King Li Shimin at night restlessly, and the soul returned to the underground mansion for a while!
In the Network, some readers have questioned that the Dragon King of Jinghe is a priest in the Three Realms, and Wei Zheng is only a prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, a mortal! Why was he able to kill the Jinghe Dragon King in his dream?
Combined with the original work of "Journey to the West" and folk mythology stories, today, we will talk about this story for everyone to exchange and discuss.
1. Wei Zheng is the messenger of the Heavenly Court on earth.
The historical Wei Zheng did have his own people, born in 580 AD, a native of Quyang County, present-day Baoding City, Hebei Province, character: Xuancheng.
Historical records record that when he was a teenager, Wei Zheng was lonely and poor, and it was difficult to volunteer. But Wei Zheng aspired to be tall, loved to read, and became a Taoist priest in his early years.
Through unremitting efforts, Wei Zhengguan became the prime minister and became an outstanding politician, thinker, writer and historian of the early Tang Dynasty.
In the 10th chapter of the original book of the Four Famous Works "Journey to the West", "The Old Dragon King's Clumsy Plan to Commit The Heavenly Rules, Wei ChengXiang's Testament to the Secret Official", Yuan Shoucheng told the Jinghe Dragon King that Wei Zheng was a "human Cao official".
In the face of the Jinghe Dragon King's bitter plea, Yuan Shoucheng said bluntly: I can't save you, but I just point out a way to live with you!
The Dragon King of Jinghe asked Yuan Shoucheng to point out the confusion, and Yuan Shoucheng said this: At three o'clock in the afternoon tomorrow, you should go to the Cao Official Wei Zheng to listen to the beheading. If you really want to die, you must hurry to sue the current Emperor Taizong of Tang. That Wei Zheng was the prime minister under the Tang King, and if he was pleasing to him, Fang Bao would be fine!
The Jinghe Dragon King said goodbye with tears!
In Taoism and folk mythology, it is believed that the Heavenly Court not only has four values of Gong Cao such as "duty year, month, day, and time", but also "three Cao officials" such as "Heavenly Cao, Earth Cao, and Ren Cao".
Among them, "Tiancao" refers to the Heavenly Immortal Official; "Di Cao" is the ghost judgment of the Earthly Government; "Ren Cao" is the human official in charge of human affairs, and its duty is to communicate and convey the situation in heaven and the earth.
Judging from This Special Identity of Wei Zheng, Wei Zheng is the "messenger" of the Heavenly Court in the human world.
Second, Wei Zheng had a "Hui Sword".
In addition to the Golden Will of the Jade Emperor, in the Myth of Journey to the West, Wei Zheng also possessed a special magic weapon, the "Hui Sword".
The night before the Killing of the Dragon King of Jinghe, Wei Zheng was watching the heavens at night and heard the cranes singing outside the Nine Clouds. Then he saw the Celestial Immortal Official, holding the jade will in his hand, and ordered him to kill the old dragon of the Jing River at three o'clock in the afternoon tomorrow.
That night, Wei Zheng fasted and bathed, tried the Hui Sword in the Chao Xiang Mansion, transported the Yuan God, and did not enter the Dynasty.
The next day, Li Shimin, the King of Tang, at the request of the Dragon King of Jinghe, promised to save his life, and seeing that Wei Zheng had not ascended to the court, he specially invited Wei Zheng to meet him.
Between the monarchs and the courtiers, it is boring to sit dry. Therefore, Li Shimin proposed to play a game of Go. Unexpectedly, Wei Zheng was playing chess, and at three o'clock in the afternoon, people were swimming in the soul, crouching on the side of the case, not sleeping soundly.
"In front of the king, his eyes are hazy, and his dreams leave His Majesty to ride on the clouds, and he is trembling."
It wasn't until Qin Shubao and Xu Maogong played the dragon head noodles that fell from the clouds that Li Shimin learned that Wei Zheng had just killed the Dragon King in a dream.
In the myth of Journey to the West, this plot is described in detail. On the Dragon Platform, the Jinghe Dragon King was tied to a pillar by the Heavenly Soldier Heavenly General. Wei Zheng said to him: You have committed a crime of heaven and deserve to be punished with death. I do the providence to cut off the remnants of my life.
When the Dragon King of Jinghe heard this, he begged Wei Zheng bitterly, and finally bowed his claws and collected his scales, obeying the Mandate of Heaven. Wei Zheng, on the other hand, used the Hui Sword and "clicked" to cut off the dragon head.
So, what was the Hui Sword that Wei requisitioned?
The Chinese character for "hui" refers to mental enlightenment. In the "Explanation of Words", it is said that the word "Hui" is also said. Renbu.
That is to say, the "Hui" glyph uses "heart" as the side and "comet" as the side.
In Buddhism, the word hui refers to "enlightenment, confusion, and truth-realization." The Buddhist sutra Vimala Sutra and Bodhisattva Behavior says, "With the sword of wisdom, break through the defilements of thieves." Out of the yin, out of the realm, into, bear all sentient beings, forever liberated.
Buddhism believes that wisdom can cut off all defilements, so it is modified with a sword. It can be seen that the Hui Sword can not only kill the Jinghe Dragon King, but also the Hui Sword, which was originally sufficient, can also kill all immortals and demons.
Unwinding is beneficial, but originality is not easy.
