"Your Highness, I just learned about this "Barefoot Doctor's Manual" from Taoist Master Sun. Why don't we Taoists buy a batch?" Yuan Tiangang next to him suddenly said.
"Oh? What do you say?" Li Ke looked at him and asked.
"In fact, there are many Taoist priests in our Taoist temples located in various parts of the Tang Dynasty who have some knowledge of medical skills. Although they do not have much knowledge, they still do some medical treatment for some common people on a daily basis. If you have the work of His Highness and Sun Zhenren, They can quickly master this "Barefoot Doctor's Handbook" and become a qualified doctor. It should not be a problem for people from all over the country to visit their homes for medical treatment."
"And many Taoist priests, who have lived in the mountains and forests for a long time, also have a lot of experience in identifying Chinese medicinal materials. This saves some training process. Although this book is straightforward enough, it is obvious that those who have the basics can learn it. Faster."
"In this case, the process of popularizing His Highness will naturally be easier. If that doesn't work, our Taoist temple can adopt some beggars and orphans from everywhere and teach them these skills, which can also be considered as a contribution to your career, Your Highness." Yuan Tiangang He stated his purpose directly.
Li Ke smiled, you see, this subjective initiative is okay, who said that the master does not eat the fireworks of the world.
"Well, Taoist Yuan is indeed far-sighted." Li Ke made a pun. This was the evaluation he had just given to Yuan Tiangang, and he returned it at this time. "This is not a problem, but there is a premise, that is, these people must abide by me. Laws of the Tang Dynasty! Don’t act recklessly. If these Taoist priests can solve the problem of medical treatment for the people, then it will be normal for the people to offer incense during this festival."
Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng understood. The implication is that the Tang Dynasty allows you to develop followers, but you must not go too far, abide by the laws of the Tang Dynasty, and cooperate with the Tang Dynasty. Then there will be no problem.
For Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng, that would be no problem. In fact, Taoism has been very inclusive from the beginning to the end, and different factions in Taoism have different requirements for Taoist priests. But in fact, Taoism is divided into sects. The sect was already after the Song and Yuan Dynasties. One of the main sources of Taoism in the Tang Dynasty was the Five-meter Dou Dao, and then there were the Danding Dao, Fu Zhuan sect, numerology/shu shu (this thing is actually mathematics), classics Dharma, spells and other schools.
But in the Tang Dynasty, these were not considered separate sects and were not completely separated. It can be said that Taoism in the world is still one family, so the influence of Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng is still very strong.
As can be seen from these factions, what Taoist priests in Taoism do is very complex. It can be said that they have various disciplines. It just means that they do not have systematic knowledge. Many of them rely on their own knowledge for research, but many things in ancient China That's how I came up with it through random research.
There is no problem with this, let alone say that Taoist priests are different from many divine envoys and believers of foreign religions. Taoist priests often like to study these things by themselves instead of blindly believing in something.
I'm afraid this is one of the reasons why from beginning to end, the concept of Taoist belief brainwashing is not that strong.
"This is natural. Although we are Taoist priests, we are also common people of the Tang Dynasty. Naturally, we must abide by the laws of the Tang Dynasty." Yuan Tiangang bent down and saluted directly.
"Well, that's right. In this way, it's a win-win situation for us!" Li Ke nodded with satisfaction.
"Your Highness is kind-hearted and considers the common people of the world. I feel that Your Highness may be the reincarnation of some god in the sky." Yuan Tiangang bowed and saluted again.
Li Ke was a little dumbfounded, "Okay, don't play with me anymore. I'm not interested in things like becoming a god. After the Lantern Festival in the next year, I want to supervise the country. Let's talk about it then. "
When it comes to supervising the country, Li Ke's mood suddenly slumped, leaving Yuan Tiangang and the others a little speechless. Yuan Tiangang and the others were all present at what happened that day in the court, but their position could not be in the main position, but they could still be regarded as spectators. .
Of course they knew why Li Ke had this attitude.
It can only be said that it has been rare since ancient times. However, I am afraid that it is precisely because of His Highness's thoughts that both the Crown Prince and His Majesty should let His Highness do as he pleases.
Li Ke naturally knew the meaning of Yuan Tiangang's words. Didn't he just want to make him a god? From ancient times to the present, Taoism has often conferred gods on military commanders and the like who are worshiped by the common people. As for the reason, everyone knows, but don’t tell me, this kind of deification often affects various dynasties and generations. .
But Li Ke was not interested in that, so he stopped it.
If a good person is not worthy of being a god, why should he be made a god?
After all the things that should be discussed were discussed, several people naturally started chatting. During the conversation, Yuan Tiangang's eloquent and humorous side was revealed.
Yuan Tiangang also traveled to the Tang Dynasty before entering the dynasty, and he saw a lot of local customs and customs. It was quite interesting to talk about it, but Li Ke could just tell it in words.
To really tell the story, people like Yuan Tiangang are required. First of all, they are all professionals. They have enough knowledge, they have seen too many local customs, mountains and landscapes. Secondly, they have enough knowledge about the mythological system of Taoism, etc. They are all very familiar.
So after a little processing, it turned out to be a very attractive ghost story.
Tsk, this can still be used to collect wool!
"You two, I suddenly have an idea." Li Ke said.
"Your Highness, please speak." Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng were a little surprised, but naturally they hurriedly spoke.
"Can you two help me make up some stories?" Li Ke said lightly.
"Ah?" Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng were stunned, making up a story? They are good at telling stories, but what is the use of this story?
"In my shopping mall, there is a profession called Mr. Storyteller. I also make shadow puppet shows and puppet shows. I need some good stories to tell. Just listening to what you two said, I suddenly felt that they are making up stories. Talents! After all, no one else has as much experience as the two of them." Li Ke stated his purpose simply.
Yuan Tiangang: "..."
Li Chunfeng: "..."
So we are just making up stories?
"This... is fine, but does His Highness have any requirements for this story?" Yuan Tiangang asked.
"Yes! You can write about gods and ghosts, but as few as possible. In the end, you can write about people doing evil. And I believe that what you two encountered must be people doing evil."
"In addition, the whole story must reflect the feelings of family and country, that is, the idea of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism must run through it. For example, a ghost murders a village, but there is a retired soldier in the village, but this ghost It’s too close.”
"Because he is upright and believes in the country's justice, evil things such as ghosts and monsters can naturally not get close to him." Li Ke smiled and gave an example.
Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng looked at each other. His Highness seemed to want to play something very high-end?
