The next day, someone from Mao Mountain came. An old man with a mustache walked into the shop and asked who Li Xiang was. I said that I was senior because I couldn't see through his face at all.
The old man smiled coldly and said," I'm from Mao Mountain's Law Enforcement Hall. I'm here to tell you that Mao Mountain never bullies the weak. We'll give you three years to grow. In these three years, Mao Mountain will not come looking for trouble with you."
" The condition is that you must come to Mao Mountain to challenge the mountain three years later. If you can't, you must kneel at the entrance of Mao Mountain's Law Enforcement Hall and kowtow to the outer sect disciples you beat. If you win, Mao Mountain will apologize to you and let you enter the library pavilion for free.
As he spoke, he took out a talisman. The words written on it were the same as what he said. After we signed it, the talisman would spontaneously combust. I wasn't worried that Mao Mountain would go back on their word, because this kind of contract was witnessed by the Heavenly Dao.
If I go back on my word, I'll exhaust my cultivation, and if I go back on my word, I'll be reduced to ashes. Although I'm not afraid of Mao Mountain going back on their word, I'm still wondering if I can fight my way up to Mao Mountain in three years. That old man left without saying a word after seeing the talisman burn itself.
Master looked at me and said,"When did you decide to go to the mountain to find me?" Then he left. I sighed. There was no other way but to quickly improve my strength in three years.
After thinking for a long time, I went to the place where I met the white tiger last time. When I arrived at the place where the white tiger was, the powerful demonic qi locked onto me as soon as I entered the forest. I saw the big white tiger gradually walk out.
The white tiger slowly opened its mouth and said,"Kid, I replayed you last time. Why did you come? I say, Senior White Tiger, I should have known that you could speak after gaining intelligence last time." The white tiger said,"Kid, stop trying to get close to me. If you have something to say, get lost."
I shamelessly said that Senior White Tiger wanted you to train my speed and explosive ability. White Tiger laughed and said,"Are you agitated? I'm a demon beast, and you want to train with me?"
I told White Tiger that I was telling the truth. White Tiger was silent for a while and said,"Do you really want to train with me? If it wasn't for the fact that I have a grudge against those old guys from Mao Mountain, I wouldn't even bother with you."
I said, Senior White Tiger, are you willing to help me? The white tiger said,"I'll help you, okay? Hurry up and get over here." I just arrived beside the white tiger and saw the white tiger's claws coming towards me. I raised my hand to block and a blood mark instantly appeared on my hand.
I said,"Senior White Tiger, why are you attacking me just like that?" White Tiger's voice sounded from behind me, and he swiped at me with his claws again. White Tiger reminded me that endurance meant that you could outrun me, resistance meant that you could take a beating, and as for explosive power, you could send me flying.
The next five months were spent under such beatings, but I also gained a lot. I had successfully broken through to yellow tier level 7. The next day, the white tiger attacked me as usual.
I started running. In a short while, the white tiger was left behind. Just as I was about to relax, a shadow suddenly appeared from the bushes. I reflexively punched and a huge white shadow flew out.
The white tiger landed on the ground and said,"Kid, you're not bad. You can even hit me now. However, you still can't beat me. The last time I fought you, my bloodline power didn't activate. The demonic qi on the white tiger's body increased exponentially."
Do you know what bloodline I have? I'm a branch of the White Tiger bloodline of the Four Divine Beasts.
I was shocked.
The four mythical beasts of ancient China were the Azure Dragon, the White Tiger, the Vermilion Bird, and the Black Tortoise. The green dragon in the east was wood, the white tiger in the west was gold, the vermilion bird in the south was fire, the black tortoise in the north was water, and the yellow in the center was earth.
Below is a brief introduction of the four ancient mythical beasts of China. In the Shang Dynasty, the ancients divided the sky into four palaces, east, west, south, and north. They were named after the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Xuanwu (a turtle-shaped god).
In fact, the sky was divided into four parts, and each part was formed by connecting the seven main constellations, which were named after their shapes. In the east, the horns (Wood Jiao), Kang (Golden Dragon), Di (Earth Raccoon Dog), Fang (Sun Rabbit), Xin (Moon Fox), Wei (Fire Tiger), and Ji (Water Leopard) were shaped like dragons.
Therefore, the Eastern Palace was called Qinglong or Canglong. The seven stars in the west, Kui (Wood Wolf), Lou (Golden Dog), Wei (Earth Pheasant), Pleiades (Day Chicken), Bi (Moon Crow), Pi (Fire Monkey), and Shen (Water Ape), were shaped like tigers. The West Palace was called the White Tiger. In the south, the well (Mu 'an), ghost (Golden Sheep), willow (Earth Deer), star (Sun Horse), Zhang (Moon Deer), wing (Water Snake), and Zhen (Fire Earthworm) were combined into a bird shape, called Vermilion Bird. In the north, there are seven stars: Dou (wood), Niu (golden bull), Nu (earth bat), Xu (sun rat), Wei (moon swallow), Shi (fire pig), Bi (water shu). They are shaped like turtles and called Xuanwu. Thus, the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise became the four gods guarding the Heavenly Palace, repelling evil and adjusting Yin and Yang.
The four mythical beasts of China, the Green Dragon, originated from the worship of the ancient stars. In ancient China, the stars in the sky were divided into seven star regions, the "Three Walls" and the "Four Symbols". Sanyuan is Ziwei
Yuan symbolized the imperial palace, Taiwei Yuan symbolized the administrative organization, and Taiwei Yuan symbolized the government."Tianshi Yuan" symbolized the bustling streets. The three walls were arranged in a triangle around the North Star.?
There were four symbols around the three walls: " East Azure Dragon, West White Tiger, South Vermilion Bird, North Black Tortoise." In other words, the stars in the east were like a dragon. As the earth revolved around the sun, the stars in the sky changed with the seasons.
Every evening at the turn of winter and spring, the black dragon would appear.? The dragon was the seven constellations of the east, namely Jiao, Kang, Di, Fang, Xin, Wei, and Ji. The shape of these seven constellations was very similar to the shape of a dragon. From the meaning of their words, it could be seen that Jiao was the horn of the dragon, Kang was the neck, Di was the root of the neck, Fang was the shoulder and rib, Xin was the heart, Wei was the tail, and Ji was the end of the tail.?
There was also the part in the heart of the dragon.
Some people called it Qingyu, and because the Green Dragon belonged to the wood element, it was also the year Taisui of Jupiter. After the rise of Daoism, these four spirits were also given names to make it easier for humans to address them. The Azure Dragon was called Meng Zhang, and in many dynasties, some emperors took the Azure Dragon as their year title. For example, Emperor Ming of Wei of the Three Kingdoms was an example. The historical records also stated that the Xia Dynasty belonged to the Mu De dynasty, so he had records of the auspicious signs of the Azure Dragon being born in the suburbs.?
China's Four Great Divine Beasts
White Tiger White Tiger was also a god of war and slaughter. It originated from the worship of the ancient stars. The white tiger had many divine powers, such as avoiding evil, eliminating disasters, praying for abundance, punishing evil, promoting good, making money, and making a good marriage. It was one of the four spirits, and of course, it was also transformed from a constellation. It was formed by the seven constellations in the west of the twenty-eight Lunar Mansions: Kui, Lou, Wei, Pleiades, Bi, Qi and Shen are formed. Therefore, it was the representative of the West. The reason why it was white was because the West belonged to the gold element in the five elements, and its color was white. Therefore, white came from the five elements.?
In addition to the four spirits of Taoism, including the green dragon and white tiger, even when the feng shui master explored the cemetery,
The protruding terrain on the left and right sides of the terrain could be used as tombs. They had unique names, called the left green dragon and the right white tiger, which meant that they were guards. There were similar decorations in the court. On the left and right pillars, there were green dragons and white tigers to suppress evil spirits.?
After the rise of Taoism.
Longhu was used as a Taoist alchemy term to refer to " lead and mercury, Kan Li, water and fire, Yin and Yang " and other similar terms. The other theory was that it belonged to wood, which represented the east. The hexagram was Zhen, so it was called Green Dragon. Love belongs to gold, gold represents the west, in the hexagram is dui, gold white, so it is called white tiger. Metal can restrain wood, so human feelings often damage human nature, but with the essence of the true qi of the twenty-eight elements, so that they can combine into one, then metal and wood will be seamless, dragon and tiger will naturally lie down and form elixir. In the human body, the liver will be dragon, the kidney will be tiger, and the outer elixir will still take the meaning of yin and yang, with dragon as lead and tiger as mercury.?
As the White Tiger was the God of War, many fierce generals were said to be the reincarnation of the White Tiger Planet, such as: Tang Dynasty generals Luo Cheng, Xue Rengui and his son. In traditional Chinese culture, it was one of the four symbols of the seven constellations of the Western Taoist school. According to the theory of the five elements, it represented the spiritual beast of the West. It was a white tiger and represented the season of autumn.? The seven constellations in the west of the twenty-eight constellations (Kui, Lou, Wei, Pleiades, Bi, Wei, San).
It is shaped like a tiger, located in the west, belonging to gold, white color, called white tiger.?
Among the four sacred beasts of China, the other one that was often mentioned in the same breath as the dragon was the White Tiger. Like the Azure Dragon, the White Tiger was not a tiger. In the myths and legends of the Han people, the white tiger was the god of war and slaughter. At the same time, the white tiger had many divine powers, such as evading evil, praying for good fortune, punishing evil, and so on. It was one of the four spirits, so it was naturally formed by the stars.?
The Vermilion Bird was one of the four sacred beasts in the traditional culture of the Han people. It originated from the worship of the ancient stars. It was a divine beast that represented the south. Its color was red, and it represented summer.?
The four mythical beasts were the Vermilion Bird, the Black Tortoise, the Azure Dragon, and the White Tiger. The Vermilion Bird was one of the four spirits. Like the other three, it came from the constellations and was the general name of the seven constellations in the south. Well, ghost, willow, star, Zhang, wing, Zhen.?
Vermilion is red, like fire, the south belongs to fire, so it is called Rosefinch.?
1. The name of the constellation. The seven constellations in the south of the twenty-eight constellations. "Book: Yao Dian""Sun Star Bird"? The Sun of the Qing Dynasty, Xing Yan, said,"The sutra says that the star bird is called the rosefinch, the southern night?" Zheng Kangcheng's meaning is that the seven constellations in the south are all bird stars.”2. He was referring to the military flag with the picture of a vermilion bird. "Wu Zi, Zhi Bing":"The left must be the green dragon, the right white tiger, the front rosefinch, the back Xuanwu, ostentatious above, engaged in below.”?
3. It was an auspicious animal in the legends of the ancient Han people, one of the Four Spirits. The Yellow Painting of the Three Ancestors: Weiyang Palace: " The Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Yuan Wu are the four spirits of the sky. They are used to rectify the four directions. The king uses them to make palaces and halls.”?
4. The name of the southern god. "Wen Xuan; Wang Yanshou Lu Lingguang Dian Fu""Vermilion Bird Spreads Wings" Tang? Li Zhouhan? [Note: Vermilion Bird and Vermilion Bird are the gods of the south.]”?
The father of Yu, the founder of the Xia Dynasty, was called Gun, also known as Xuanming, or Xuanwu. He had helped Shun control the flood before the famous Dayu. Because it only used blocking and not dredging, even with the help of the divine object, the Soil of Breath, it still did not succeed.?
Gun was usually regarded as the incarnation of the spiritual turtle. The Tushan Family believed that snakes were their ancestors.?
The Black Tortoise originated from the worship of the ancient stars. Since the Pre-Qin era, it had been the mythical beast representing Zhuanxu and the seven constellations in the north. In the Han Dynasty, the theory of the five elements began to rise, and its symbolic meaning increased to Ren, Gui, and winter.?
Turtles and snakes were considered spiritual beasts in ancient China, symbolizing longevity.
The jade turtle pendant was influenced by ancient China in Japan. The turtle pattern was often used in naming and making emblems.?
The Black Tortoise was a spiritual creature formed from a turtle and a snake. The original intention of the Black Tortoise was Xuanming. Martial and Ancient Netherworld sounds were interlinked. Like the other three spirits, the Black Tortoise was also transformed from the twenty-eight Lunar Mansions: Dou, Niu, Nu, Xu, Wei, Shi, Bi.
