Chapter 209 Zhang Junping makes gods
Zhang Junping's words made the ten masters a little confused.
We are following you to seal Wuran Temple. Should we talk about such a heavy topic of family heritage?
However, if you think about it carefully, Zhang Junping's words really make sense.
Why, the inheritance of Confucius, Taoism, and Buddhism have never been destroyed after disasters.
However, even if a thousand-year-old family is in danger, it will be destroyed and the inheritance will be cut off.
"The magistrate, why is the family inheritance so difficult?
In this world, there are really thousands of years of families?"
"Haha! Isn't the Confucius Mansion a thousand-year-old family?"
"But this one is the only one!"
"There is also the Zhang family!"
"Zhang Family? Which Zhang Family is the Zhang Family that the magistrate is talking about?"
"The Zhang family in Longhu Mountain!
The Zhang family in Longhu Mountain was passed down from Zhang Liang at the end of the Qin Dynasty and the beginning of the Han Dynasty. It was not until Zhang Daoling, the eighth descendant of Zhang Liang, founded the Tianshi Sect!”
"It's so difficult! There are only these two families in thousands of years of history!" The head of the Li family shook his head.
“It’s hard to say, it’s not difficult to say, it’s not difficult to say, it’s not difficult to say!
From the inheritance process of the two thousand-year-old families that have been passed down from generation to generation, it can be inferred that the most important thing about the inheritance of aristocratic families is spiritual inheritance! Civilization inheritance!
The Kong family was able to ensure the continuous family through the inheritance of Confucian culture.
The Zhang family in Longhu Mountain, with the help of Taoist culture, is proud to ensure that the family lasts for thousands of years!
On the contrary, no matter how much wealth you have, you can lose your fortune even if you have a mountain of gold and silver!"
"So what? Even the Confucian sub-saint Mencius, hasn't the family heritage been passed down?"
"Who said that the sub-saint Mencius had no inheritor?
However, the descendants of the sub-saint Mencius have been unrest and have lived in various places, so they have not been listed as a thousand-year-old family!" Zhang Junping smiled.
"The magistrate, how can we achieve the successive family spread like the Kong family and the Zhang family?"
"I said before that, it is difficult to spread forever, and it is simple to say!
If you carefully analyze the inheritance history of the Kong family, Zhang family, Meng family, Zeng family and other families, you will find out!
First, your own core cultural heritage can also be called spiritual heritage, or faith inheritance!
Second, a fixed residence!
The Kong family lived in Qufu for generations and never moved!
The Zhang family lived in Longhu Mountain for many years and never moved!
Mencius and Zengzi are all representative figures of Confucianism after Confucius and second only to Confucius!
Their bloodline has not been cut off, but why isn’t the Meng family and Zeng family called the Thousand Years’ Family?
It is because their descendants have grown up and moved to all parts of the country, and their influence has been greatly dispersed!
If family inheritance is compared to a big tree, what is the most important thing?
It's the root!
The tree is a thousand feet tall, and the leaves fall back to their roots!
It can be seen how important a place of inheritance can be lived in by the times!
Do you remember what I said to you just now in the county government office?
Overseas, east, and south, there are vast continents, sparsely populated areas, making it an excellent place to establish a family heritage!
If you are too far or afraid of the difficult journey!
The Fuso Islands are also a good choice!
With your own abilities, occupying an island on the Fusang Islands and using it as a family heritage site is also a good choice!" Zhang Junping's words were like a very tempting devil, hitting the hearts of the ten major families.
Thousand years of inheritance!
A place of inheritance!
Shipbuilding and going to sea!
A few words kept wandering in the minds of the ten masters.
"How can I solve the spiritual and cultural core that the county magistrate just mentioned?"
“This is simpler, create a god!
In ancient times, people believed in totem! Later, there was Confucianism, Taoism, Huang-Lao culture, and Buddhism!
Why can't you create a god?
Let future generations worship it as the pillar of spiritual inheritance?
For example, your Li family can worship the Star Lord of Wealth and the God of Wealth and Wealth Li Guizu. You can claim to be the descendant of Li Guizu!"
"This..." The head of the Li family felt that Zhang Junping's words were absurd, but he was very moved.
"When you find gold and silver mountains overseas and find a place of inheritance, you can tell your clan members that your ancestors will appear and send you a dream to you, saying that you are the descendants of the Star Lord of Wealth...
Then you gather the clan elders of the family and formulate a set of clan rules and ancestral teachings for future generations to pass on!
Since you are descendants of the Wencai God, you naturally have to build a family with money!
This wealth does not mean that you can gather all your wealth into your home and hide it in the family warehouse!
Instead, do business, let the world's wealth be circulated, trade fairly, and be free from deception. While earning wealth, you can help the world!”
"Mr. Magistrate, what about our Wu family?" asked excitedly.
"You Wu family?"
Zhang Junping frowned. The Wu family, except for Wu Gang, who cut down trees in the Moon Palace, had no famous gods.
Since there isn't, then make it!
Gods were originally created!
After thinking it through, Zhang Junping asked with a smile: "What kind of business do you mainly focus on in Wu's family?"
"Muping County, the largest blacksmith shop in Dengzhou Prefecture is our Wu family!
Before, my Wu family was also responsible for the smelting of the gold and silver mines!" The head of the Wu family said proudly.
"Then you say that your Wu family is the descendant of Zhurong!"
"The successor of Zhurong?" The head of the Wu family didn't understand for a moment what the relationship between his Wu family and Zhurong was.
"Zhurong was the official position in charge of flames in ancient times!
According to legend, Zhuanxu was the grandson of Huangdi and the Xuan Emperor in charge of the north!
Emperor Xuan has two great-grandchildren, namely Chongli Wuhui!
When Chongqing Li was appointed as Zhurong, he committed a serious crime and was removed from the position of Zhurong. Chongqing Li's younger brother Wu Hui served as Zhurong!
According to historical records, descendants of Wu Hui of Zhurong moved to Linqu, Qingzhou for a generation!
Your Wu family’s blacksmith shop cannot be separated from dealing with fire!
As a descendant of Wu Hui of Zhurong, he almost corresponds to it!"
Zhang Junping racked his brains to create a god for the Wu family, thanks to his five-year book in the library.
I have read all kinds of miscellaneous books, myths and legends, but I really can't create them.
"Then what should I do with the spirit of inheritance of my Wu family?" asked the head of the Wu family again.
"The forging skills of your Wu family are your inheritance spirit!
You can completely inherit the spirit of craftsmanship!
The creation of nature is a great trick!
We encourage future generations to carefully study forging skills and smelting skills, and constantly develop forging and smelting skills to a higher level!" Zhang Junping casually gave instructions.
Then, Zhang Junping gave instructions to several other schools one by one how to create gods and establish spiritual heritage.
"Qi reported to the magistrate, a hidden stone gate was found on the cliff of the backyard of Wuran Temple!" Zhang Bo ran over and reported to Zhang Junping.
"Has it been opened, what's inside?"
"The county magistrate is looking for an agency!"
"Take me to see!"
Zhang Junping followed Zhang Bo to a cliff.
