Historical legend one
According to legend, Guangze, surnamed Guo and named Hongfu, was born in the late Tang Dynasty and early Tongguang (923), a native of Jingu, Anxi. In Taiwan Province Province, the belief of respecting the king in Guangze is deeply rooted in people's hearts, and its festivals are also extremely prosperous. However, there are only the following legends about Guo Gong: the unjust king is a god.
One of them said: Wang Zun, whose name is Guo Hongfu, lost his father when he was young. Because of his poor family, he was hired by a local rich man, Mr. Chen, as a shepherd boy and went to the barren wilderness to herd sheep every day. Strange to say, his flock is large, and the owner sells it. No matter how much he sells, the flock will not decrease the next day.
Although the owner has huge property, he is very stingy and insatiable. He wants to bury his ancestors' geomantic omen and make a fortune. Chen Lao used to have a geographer at home to find him a lucky place. However, being a geographer is very simple, so although geographers know that sheep are tied to auspicious places, they are reluctant to tell their elders. On the contrary, because the Chen family's shepherd boy treated him very well, he wanted to give him this auspicious place.
So one day, the Feng Shui master asked Guo Hongfu, "Would you like to be emperor? Or be a god? Guo Hongfu replied: "The emperor can only enjoy a generation of wealth, and the gods can enjoy the eternal fragrance of the world. Of course, being a god is good. 」
The geographer ordered the shepherd boy to bury his parents' bones in that sheepfold. And told him, "Since your parents are buried in this land of Long Mai, you will become a god in the future. Guo Hongfu asked in amazement, "If you put the remains underground and trample them with livestock, won't they all stay after a long time?" "? 」
The geographer sneered and said, "Never mind that." As soon as the geographer finished speaking, it suddenly turned into a grave. Guo Hongfu was surprised, and the geographer warned him, "There will be many poison bee in this place soon, and they will poison others. If you want to escape from the shelter as soon as possible, just follow your heart and run straight ahead, to the place where people wear bronze hats, to the place where cattle ride people, and to the place where fish climb trees to hide. 」
Say that finish, sure enough, a group of poisons swarmed in and assassinated the cruel elders. At this time, the shepherd boy fled all the way and encountered heavy rain on the way. He saw a monk using a bronze mirror as a hat to shelter from the rain, a village boy hiding under a cow's stomach to shelter from the rain, and a fisherman climbing a tree with a fishing rod that had just caught a fish to shelter from the rain. These scenes are exactly the same as what geographers have said before.
Guo Hongfu knew that this convenient place was his destination. He sat on a rock over there. Soon, sure enough, he ascended to heaven.
Historical legend 2
That night, he had a dream that a red-faced young man in a dragon robe came up to him and said, "Thank you, uncle, for salvaging my idol from the sea. I am Guangze Wang Zun, and I have sheltered overseas Chinese. "
The fishermen were very happy when they were awakened. The next day, they invited China's elders. Many China brothers and locals went to his house to check it carefully. An overseas Chinese in Quanzhou said, "King Guangze is the Guo of Fengshan Temple in Nan 'an, Fujian, and the god of Tangshan's hometown! "
Therefore, the overseas Chinese brothers invested to raise funds, repainted the statue with gold, and built the Baoan Palace to worship King Guangze. Overseas Chinese go fishing in the sea, picking fruits in the mountains and doing business on the street, all of which go to Baoan Palace to make incense. When I was sick, I also went to the security palace to ask for blessings, and the incense was very strong.
It is said that the local maid-in-waiting in Sarawak is Laye Charles Brock, who is honest and caring for the people. Every day, besides dealing with government affairs, I always like to ride horses to the suburbs to exercise in the early morning. One morning, when he passed the Baoan Palace, his horse's front hoof suddenly rose high, like a pilgrimage, and he bowed to the front in a row. Ley was surprised. Through the thin morning mist, he saw a lively and lovely child leaning in front of the horse, wearing a red Chinese-style chest covering, shirtless and strolling into the palace.
"Where did this child come from?" Ley felt very strange, so he jumped off his horse and went to the palace to look for the child. There are no side doors and back doors in the palace, and there are no signs of children. He can't help claiming that he is strange. Then he asked the neighborhood residents. An overseas Chinese said to him, "It must be an epiphany to worship King Guangze here!"
Laye believes it, too.
"When the horse of Chief Fan Zi saw Guo Ziyu Sheng, he also made three obeisances!" The news spread in Kuching, more good men and women went to the security palace in Kuching, and even Malays came to pay homage.
Guo Zhongfu/kloc-became a god at the age of 0/6. After Wei Zhenfeng Mountain, it appeared repeatedly. From putting out fires in the palace to protecting the country and resisting Japan, from loving the people and saving the world to treating diseases and providing disaster relief, Guo was knighted by successive emperors. In Shaoxing, Song Gaozong, it was named "Weizhen Guangze Hou" and built "Weizhen Temple". During the Qingyuan period in Song Ningzong, Wei Zhen was named as "loyal to Wei Zhen, respectful to Fu Hui and wide-minded Hou", and Jinfeng was named as "King of Taibo". During the reign of Kai Qingyuan, it was awarded the title of "Wei Wulie's security Guangze". Guo is called "Guangze" for short, and his name has spread all over the world.
Celebrities of all ages went to Fengshan Temple to write inscriptions, poems and couplets to express their reverence for the king of luster. Song Dynasty champion Cong Longzeng personally wrote an inscription. Yan Tingfu wrote the inscription "Fengshan wins the exhibition" in Ming Dynasty, and Hanlin commented on Zhang Qianfu's inscription "English is different and gorgeous" in Ming Dynasty. Qing Gongzi Chen wrote an inscription: "Looking at a Fengxiang Dan point from a distance, you can't see the whole ox-shaped Taoist body." Jiang Yuchan, a celebrity in Quanzhou in the Qing Dynasty, said: "Minnan has won the spirit of Buddha, and it has been rumored in the past, and its reputation is the highest." ..... is really countless. There are biographies of King Guangze, Quanzhou Prefecture Records and Nan 'an County Records.
In southern Fujian and Taiwan Bay, there is a custom of "sixteen years old". Boys have little knowledge and little strength, and their work is considered as child labor. When they work and shop at the dock, they can only get a small salary to supplement their families. At the age of sixteen, he will happily say, "Guo became a god at sixteen, and I grew up at sixteen!" " Boys in the countryside will say, "I can pick a bucket of urine at the age of sixteen!" " "The child laborers in the city will say," I can get "adult money" when I am sixteen! "Parents also regard their son 16 years old as the dividing line between children and adults, prepare three pig heads, prepare to give birth to sheep and fresh fruit, go to Fengshan Temple to worship Guo, burn incense and worship, and wish their son 16 years old to be like Guo, and then entertain relatives and friends. The custom of "sixteen years old" is actually to commemorate Guo! Overseas Chinese go abroad to Southeast Asia, Europe and Africa, and don't forget to go to Fengshan Temple before leaving. Please bring a woodcarving statue of "Guo Ziyu Wang Sheng" and a flag of "Fengshan Temple", and put a pack of ashes in a candle, and carry it with you. During the Daoguang period of the Qing Dynasty, more than a dozen Huamei from Nan 'an took a leftover sailboat to Nanyang, where they encountered a big storm. Because these dozens of people carried Guo's statues, flags and sachets with them, the ship successfully stopped at the edge of the adjacent island until it set sail after the storm and reached its destination smoothly. Everyone sincerely said: "It was Guo's protection that made us reach Fanping smoothly!"
Guo is a "blind Buddha" who "benefits from the outside world" and "the more obvious he seeks", so he is deeply admired by overseas Chinese. Overseas Chinese put statues, banners and sachets in overseas apartments, and Guo will wish overseas tourists good health and prosperous business. Located in Fengshan Temple, the Temple of the King's Ancestor of the Kingdom has been distributed to Taiwan Province, Hongkong, Macau, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Guangdong, Guangxi and other places in China. In overseas Chinese settlements in Southeast Asia, such as the Philippines, Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia and other places, many overseas Chinese have made a fortune, and raised funds to build Fengshan Temple, Weizhen Lake, Baoan Palace and Guangze Wang Zun Temple in China's traditional architectural style to worship Guangze Wang Zun Guo Zhongfu.
Before becoming a god, Guo Shengwang once said, "I can't be an emperor at one time, but I will be an immortal." Temple town Fengshan incense burning, Guo generation sealed Hou. How many Guangze Wang Zun temples are there at home and abroad? I'm not sure, the story of Guo Zhongfu, the king of luster, has been circulated among the people for several generations.
Note: The story of Guo Ziyu Wang Sheng, King of Guangze, is widely circulated at home and abroad, and only a part of it is collected here. According to the legend of Guo's marriage, the virgin surnamed Huang was from Youxi, and her father was a mage. The author sorts it out accordingly. Second, the virgin surnamed Chen is also from Youxi, and her father is also a mage; Third, the virgin surnamed Yang is the daughter of Yang Daochang of Fengxiang Courtyard near Shishan Shetan. She washed clothes by the stream, floated up to draw a gold plate and held a gold bracelet. Yang's daughter wears them on her wrist, but she can't take them off. This is hired by Guo. The details are almost the same, so I hereby explain.
In a word, it seems that Wang Zun Kwanzaa has no obligation to patrol the inauguration ceremony on behalf of the sky.
