Uncle Ma raised his leg and gave me a kick: "Look at you pretending to be a person of five or six, do you still think about getting a wife?"
I chuckled: "Look what you said, who doesn't want to get a wife..."
Uncle Ma said, "Don't panic. Although it is forbidden to get married in the Quanzhen Law, you can marry a wife as long as you don't become a monk and live in a temple. Besides, this rule is not that strict now. There were many people who broke the precept in the early years."
There was a bit of sadness in Uncle Ma's tone. I couldn't help but be curious, so I asked him, why were there so many people who broke the precepts in the early years?
Uncle Ma spread his hands and said there was nothing he could do. In that special era, all ghosts and ghosts were wiped out, and a large number of Taoist priests were forced to return to secular life and go home.
What to do when you get home? They can only live by farming, farming, and marrying a wife.
Of course, there are also some old Taoist priests who always insist on not getting married and choose to live alone.
But there were also many Taoist priests who never returned to Taoist temples, so in that era, there were also many strange folk people who appeared. In fact, they were these Taoist priests who were forced to return to secular life.
Therefore, this rule of not getting married has been broken a few years ago. Now some Quanzhen people who have entered the Taoism have been married before entering the Taoism, or even had children.
However, if you enter the Tao Quanzhen first, you cannot get married and have children, otherwise the rules will be broken.
However, this ban is not absolute. Generally speaking, Quanzhen Northern Sect, including the more famous Longmen Sect, does not allow marriage, but Quanzhen Southern Sect can marry.
There are no restrictions on this for the Zhengyi party. They can all get married and even hold weddings in Taoist temples.
Regarding this point, many people may think that Taoist priests of the Zhengyi sect are also monks, so why are they allowed to get married?
In fact, this is normal. Taoism strictly speaking does not restrict this, because Taoism emphasizes the law of nature. If everyone in the world believed in Taoism and stopped getting married, wouldn't the human race become extinct?
Therefore, inheritance and reproduction are still very important, and becoming a monk cannot be against humanity.
At this time, I thought of another question. Just now, Uncle Ma said, let me enter Quanzhen first, and then wait until the right time to enter Longhu. What does this mean? Could it be possible to enter Zhengyi again after entering Quanzhen? Can the two families join together?
So I raised my doubts again, and Uncle Ma patiently told me that there are actually no strict regulations in this regard. In the past, some people said that you can only join one family. From my personal understanding, there is nothing wrong with it, but in fact, many people are truly one. They have all entered, and some people have entered Zhengyi first and then Quanzhen, or they have entered Quanzhen first and then Zhengyi.
Moreover, there are Quanzhen Taoist priests who have paid homage to Mr. Zhengyi’s academic skills. This is normal.
In some temples, Taoist priests from Quanzhen and Zhengyi live together in the temple to practice. Everyone is harmonious and nothing is wrong.
Because everyone is a disciple of Sanqing Sect and Taiyi Xuanmen, but the founders of the sect are different. Now some sects suppress each other. It is really unnecessary. They are obviously a group of people with the same belief, running towards the great road together, with the same end point. , the paths are different, so why distinguish between factions?
To sum up, if I entered Quanzhen and wanted to enter Zhengyi again in the future, it would be no problem.
After listening to Uncle Ma explain this to me in detail, I weakly asked the last question.
I asked Uncle Ma, if Quanzhen and Zhengyi live in the same temple, when they open a dojo to perform rituals, should they follow Zhengyi's instructions or Quanzhen's instructions?
Uncle Ma finally couldn't help but kicked me and said, why do you have so many problems? Basically, you do what Quanzhen does, singing ten directions rhyme, and there are also people who do Zhengyi, do as the Romans do, and do whatever they go!
At this point, I finally understood everything. It was also from Uncle Ma that I heard many internal things about Taoism that outsiders didn't understand. This can be regarded as a popular science.
A brief summary is:
First, if I get married first and then become a Taoist, that's totally fine.
Second, if I become a Taoist but don’t become a monk, I can still get married and have children.
Third, after I entered Quanzhen, I can enter Zhengyi again. I don’t know if others can, but I can…
Maybe it would be a little difficult for others to join two sects. In fact, many people are dedicated to Taoism, but they can't even find a master. But it's different for me. I have Uncle Ma...
Aren't there a lot of resources?
All in all, after a lot of talking, I finally finished talking about entering the Tao. My heart is at ease, and I will wait for the opportunity.
When I turned around and went to work, I felt very happy and felt a little swaying when I walked. I felt that I was going to be different soon, and from now on I would be my grandmaster’s little baby!
We had been so beautiful for several days, and in a blink of an eye, it was the weekend. Mr. Liu didn't come in the morning, so we had another morning of leisure.
Soon it was lunch time, and I went to the wonton restaurant last time to eat, and ended up meeting the storytelling network again.
The same two people were talking about the same thing last time.
Wasn't it the clerk who burned the household registration book? He was defrauded. What we're talking about today is the follow-up.
The two of them were talking to each other while drinking wonton soup, so I pricked up my gossipy ears and continued to listen.
The book continues from the previous chapter...
What they are saying is that after the little clerk was deceived, the police also went to investigate and detained the daughter of Yuanshi Tianzun for seven days, paying compensation and fines. Anyway, she vomited tens of thousands.
As for the truth about the young clerk being deceived, in fact, the woman and the fraudster were both on the same team, but one was in the northeast and the other was in the south. After the money was defrauded, they were split in half.
However, the fraudster was not caught, which is a bit difficult, but the woman has been dealt with.
I was also secretly happy when I heard this, so it is said that evil people will get their own evil consequences, and God will take care of her naturally without me having to worry about it.
This matter is basically over here. The process has nothing to do with me. I just listened to two storytelling sessions for free.
But when I returned to the company, Mr. Liu had arrived at some point and was sitting in the office with a frown on his face.
I didn't dare to ask or say anything. Unexpectedly, as soon as I sat down for a while, Mr. Liu called me to come to the office, and then told me that he went to the house of Yuanshi Tianzun's daughter again in the morning.
I looked surprised and said, Mr. Liu, she was detained for fraud and just released, what are you going to do?
Mr. Liu was also surprised and said that he didn't know about this, but when he went there in the morning, the woman's price had increased. In the past, she would give her whatever she wanted, but now she charges 888 each, whether she likes it or not.
I chuckled and said there was nothing wrong with that. She had just been fined tens of thousands. This was a retaliatory price increase. She wanted to make back the money she lost!
Then I asked Mr. Liu why he went to see her again?
Mr. Liu said that it was because he had a dream last night. He did dream of a woman who said she was destined to be married to him for seven lifetimes. She also said that if he didn't return the substitute, she would come to claim her life.
