"None of us know the surname of this ancestor. There may be records in the archives of the previous Ming Dynasty, but when the dynasties changed, these records of the war and chaos were all lost..."
"Anyway, our unknown ancestor made great contributions during the Jingnan Incident. Even Emperor Yongle respected him very much and basically raised him in the palace!"
"This ancestor, please ask Emperor Yongle to leave half an extra room in the Forbidden City. This will not conflict with the number of palaces of the Jade Emperor, but it can also be regarded as the emperor's grace to the eunuchs!"
"I don't know what Emperor Yongle thought about it, but he agreed to this request. That's why the Forbidden City has 9999 and a half houses!"
"My master said, actually...actually this half of the room..." Yu Chun'er said gloomily, "Actually, this half of the room is not for people to live in at all!"
"This half of the house is actually for ghosts and gods! No one knows where this half of the house is hidden, not even my master!"
Yu Chun took a few steps on her knees and said to Er Mao flatteringly, "Master Manager, this is the ghost story my master told us in the past to scare us. Why do you ask about this?"
Er Mao stared at Yu Chun'er with his eyes fixed on him, "Have you finished speaking?"
"Yes! Now that I've finished speaking, that's what my master said..."
With a snap, Er Mao came up and said, "Keep beating me until he tells the truth!"
"Ouch, Eunuch Ermao, please don't hit me... I really don't know anything! Please... Ouch! Ouch!"
The little eunuchs who followed Er Mao rarely saw the general manager being so ruthless. Knowing that the matter was urgent, they ignored their familiar friendship and used their attacks so cruelly that Yu Chun'er's back molars became loose!
"Grandpa... Grandpa, the manager, please stop fighting. I said, slave... I will say anything... Please forgive me, grandpa..."
Yuchun's cheeks were as red and swollen as a pig's head as she threw herself on the ground. She was mumbling and couldn't speak clearly, "Two grandpas... I, I... my dead master also said, in fact, Emperor Yongle agreed half the time There’s something hidden in that room!”
"We all know that when King Yan was in Beijing, he was at war with Guanwai and Kouwai for a long time. King Yan's power expanded very quickly in the north, and he also recovered many surrendered tribes from Mongolia, including the ancestors of the Manchus of the Qing Dynasty!"
"But at that time, our ancestors of the Qing Dynasty were still too weak, and we were no match for the Meng people. We hid in the white mountains and black waters, fished and hunted for a living. Occasionally we could go out to exchange with the Han people for leather goods, wild ginseng, etc., and exchange for some salt, iron pots, and it would be like celebrating the New Year. Same!"
"It was at that time that the eunuch who followed King Yan in the war was the ancestor just mentioned. He had been outside the Great Wall for a long time, and by chance he met some shamans!"
"At this time, the old man learned about Xian'er's existence from the shaman's mouth..."
"Xian'er?" Xiao Sixi was stunned, "It's the kind we people call..."
"Hey... that's right! My grandpa is Hu Huang, Chang Bai Liu, Fox Fairy, Wong Tai Sin, Python Fairy, Hedgehog, Rat Fairy... there are so many! Ordinary people don't know the details, so they just call him Hu Huang Bai Liu. Yes, there are so many branches!"
"I learned from my master that in fact, most of the shamanism outside the pass is related to these practicing immortals, and most of their miraculous effects are borrowed from the power of these immortals!"
"These immortals are originally incompatible with Taoism and Buddhism in the Central Plains. For thousands of years, the Great Wall has been the dividing line. If the immortal family crosses the Great Wall, they will be suppressed and recovered!"
"And the disciples of Buddhism and Taoism who go north of the Great Wall will also suffer their revenge. It has been like this for thousands of years..."
"But starting from that year, things suddenly changed... This old ancestor somehow made friends with a shaman outside the customs. From that moment on, the old ancestor learned a trick A unique skill to attract fairies!"
"This is not an ordinary folk fairy, but a more sophisticated magic. It has attracted real great immortals who are more than ten thousand years old outside the pass. They are the kind that can help the emperor achieve his career!"
"According to my master, during the Jingnan Incident, this unrecorded immortal family also helped a lot. Zhu Di was able to secure his position in the country in the end, not only because of the hard work of civil servants and generals, but also on the other hand. Support from both Buddhism and Taoism!”
"Forget about Buddhism, everyone knows about the old monk Yao Guangxiao, and Taoism has also worked for him. Because Zhu Di believed in Emperor Zhenwu very much, all the emperors of the Ming Dynasty in the future would build Wudang Mountain!"
"Everyone in the world knows this, but what no one knows is this mysterious immortal family outside the pass!"
"This half of the room in the Forbidden City was actually built by this ancestor for this immortal family. Shouldn't this immortal family be rewarded for his merits and take half of the room?"
"Following the majesty and imperial aura of the Forbidden City, the immortals also had to practice cultivation! But the environment at that time was different from that of the Qing Dynasty. When the Qing Dynasty entered the pass, thousands of immortals entered the Great Wall along with the army!"
"The power of the Immortal Family in the north of the Qing Dynasty is so huge now! In the early years of the Ming Dynasty, Buddhism and Taoism in the Central Plains were very resistant to the Immortal Family north of the Great Wall, and there were many conflicts between them!"
"After all, Buddhism and Taoism in the Central Plains still have a large number of people and powerful magic, so our ancestors only had half a room back then, which meant they were low-key, restrained and unobtrusive!"
"After this ancestor died, he left a top-secret last word to his disciples and grandchildren, saying that when the world turns upside down, this half room will definitely come to save everyone!"
"Well... let's put it this way, two grandfathers, when the world was in chaos at the end of the Ming Dynasty, this half of the room came back and saved many eunuchs who knew this secret!"
"Otherwise, many of our eunuchs' system inheritance secrets have never been eliminated! In fact, we also have secrets and backers!"
"Director Xiao Sixi, many of the secret techniques you know can be traced back to the Tang and Song Dynasties... The inheritance has not been interrupted for thousands of years, which shows that we also have capable people in the eunuch world!"
This story tells about Er Mao and Xiao Si being dazzled by how they knew these secrets. It is simply wonderful. If it were made into a play, it would definitely be a hit!
Er Mao looked at Yu Chun'er and said coldly, "No more?"
"Oh my grandpa, he is gone, absolutely gone. I don't dare to lie to you anymore!"
"Bah! If you don't tell the truth, then slap..."
"Don't...wuwuwu...you are my grandfather, why are you still beating me!"
Er Mao's face was ashen and he said fiercely, "Yu Chun'er, don't try to get away with it. Grandpa and I have the intention to kill people today... Have you never seen me, Er Mao, kill anyone before?"
"Do you want me to start practicing with you? Then you will be the first to operate!"
Note: It’s Monday, brothers, come and vote!
There were some supernatural incidents in the recent chapters, which some people found offensive, but Xinjing just wanted to say that this kind of culture was originally the mainstream culture of the Qing Dynasty for hundreds of years!
The Eight Banners have great trust in religion, not only Buddhism, Taoism, Tibetan Buddhism, etc., classical shamanism is also very popular!
When a group behaves in some incredible way, sometimes you really need to study their culture!
This may seem ridiculous to people in the 21st century, but in the minds of people at that time, this kind of thing was as common as us being able to use our mobile phones to order food online, navigate when we go out, and watch movies on weekends!
