Tell me about the origin of the barefoot fairy.
The Eight Immortals in Taoist legends are almost household names. They have their own magical powers [1], and their legendary experiences and various folklore have always been a topic of great interest. The most popular saying is "Eight Immortals cross the sea to show their magical powers". And these seven have their own historical backgrounds, and there is evidence to test, but the legend of Lan Caihe's real name immortal is controversial. In the Ming Dynasty, Wu's Travels to the East gave him a predecessor of the barefoot fairy. "Lancaihe is the birthplace of the barefoot fairy."
The barefoot fairy in film and television
According to Fairy Wonderland, Lan Cai He often wears rags, a six-inch belt, boots on one foot and bare feet on the other. Wearing a long gown and thick cotton-padded jacket in summer, lying on the snow in winter, the breath is steaming. Every time I beg in the street, I hold a castanet more than three feet long. He is an alcoholic. When he is drunk and sings, both old people and children like to watch him sing. When he sings, he looks crazy, but his words are full of wisdom. He is a very talented singer. The lyrics he sang were written at random, and the songs were full of fairy tales. It sounds as if he told people how to cultivate themselves. He often drags the money he gets on a rope. Sometimes he doesn't care if it falls off the rope. Sometimes he gives the money he wears on the rope to the poor family, and sometimes he goes to the bar to get drunk. When he traveled around the world, someone saw him. When many years passed, when he was old, someone saw him again. He remained resolute. Later, someone saw drinking in Haoliang Restaurant and heard the sound of flute playing. Then he raised his head and flew into the sky by crane, leaving his boots, rags and six-inch belt and clappers when singing, and slowly lifted off.
Song Renzong
The Water Margin even said that Song Renzong turned out to be a barefoot fairy in the sky.
Legend has it that Song Zhenzong Zhao Heng is over 40 years old and has no children. He is very anxious and prays to God for a son. His sincerity touched the jade emperor in the sky. One day, the Jade Emperor held a fairy meeting in heaven and asked which fairy would like to be a true son. At this time, all the immortals were silent, only the barefoot immortals smiled. The Jade Emperor quickly asked, "Is Daxian going?" Daxian said, "No, no, I just laughed at the poor emperor." The Jade Emperor said, "Before the Song Dynasty is finished, the Great Immortal can go." Daxian hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, no, the Song Dynasty was not exhausted, but the people were in trouble at home and abroad, and I, the emperor, couldn't sit still." The Jade Emperor said, "Don't worry, Daxian, someone will protect you and let you sit firmly in the country." After the barefoot immortal came down to earth, he was Song Renzong Zhao Zhen. At that time, Prince Zhao Zhen didn't know who would protect him after he was born, so he cried day and night, and many famous doctors could do nothing. In desperation, Song Zhenzong issued a notice to the whole country offering a reward for the treatment of the prince. At that time, there was a monk named Lou Shoujian in Chengtian Temple in Lianshui, who was called the reclining Buddha. When he heard about it, he took off his list and rushed to Beijing to treat the prince. He entered the palace, took the prince, raised his hand and patted his ass, muttering to himself, "Don't shout, just laugh; Don't cry, don't cry, there are Wen Qu in literature and Wu Qu in martial arts. "This means that you cry because you laugh. Stop crying. Now that Wen Quxing and Wu Quxing have come down to protect you, you can do nothing. Legend has it that Wenquxing is Bao Zheng and Wu Quxing is Di Qing.
Song Wang Mingqing's Record after Dusting: "Hou Li, the mother of Renzong, once dreamed that a man came down from the sky wearing a feather coat and said," Come to be a gentleman. Later, I was lucky to get pregnant and gave birth to Renzong. When Injong was a child, he was urged to take off his socks every time, and he was often forbidden to hide on foot. He was called the barefoot fairy in the palace. Barefoot immortal, Li, the cover bone of enlightenment. " [Edit this paragraph] One of the folk stories:
In the opera Liu Hai Xi Jin Chan, Liu Hai, a demigod and demigod, is hardworking and simple. She collects firewood for a living and supports her elderly mother. He went to Mount Zhongnan to collect firewood, and met Hu Xiuying, a fox spirit, the body of a fortuneteller. Hu Xiuying admired Liu Hai's diligence and simplicity, and they were destined to get married. It was learned by Jin Chan who practiced in Sanjiaotan for more than 500 years. He was particularly jealous of Hu Xiuying. One day, Jin Chan became a lame Taoist, and he hinted that Liu Hai had stolen Hu Xiuying's treasure. Liu Hai followed the plan and got the elixir. Hu Xiuying also used anti-rape tactics to instruct Liu Hai to lure toad Dan with the elixir. Jin Chan envied the exquisiteness of the elixir and wanted to keep it for herself. He couldn't control his speech because of his excessive expression. He spit out his toad elixir and fainted. From then on, Liu Haishuang got Dan and became a fairy on earth. Liu Hai plays Jin Chan, Jin Chan spits money, and Liu Hai scatters money to the working people, which is called the God of Wealth. Liu Hai was inspired by Li Zhonghe Quan Yan Pin, the founder of Taoism and Zen Buddhism, and then disappeared in Chaoyang Cave in Nanshan, where he became a positive result. The Jade Emperor issued a decree naming Liu Hai as a barefoot fairy to take care of poverty, disaster and happiness.
Liu Hai is a real person in history. Originally it was five generations, whose real name was Cao Liu, whose name was Zhaoyuan, and whose name was Zongcheng and Xuanyuan (or Yuan) English. He lived in Yanshan area, first as a scholar in Liao country, and then became a monk, named "sea toad".
Second:
According to legend, in ancient times, there lived a big fairy in Xia Zi Cave on an overseas fairy island. One day, Daxian swam to the South China Sea, and suddenly he saw a mass of general black gas soaring into the sky in the north corner of Dahao Island. Daxian came to the sky above the island and saw the villagers gathered on the beach in Jiangsu and Anhui. Everyone was sad and secretly shed tears. Daxian pressed Yuntou and turned into an old man, holding Long Touzhang in his hand. He strode up to a strange old man and accosted him: "Why is it so lively here today?" Seeing that he is senile and a foreigner, the old man whispered, "There are outstanding people here, and it used to be a paradise. More than a decade ago, a black dragon came, wreaking havoc on rural ballads, making waves from time to time, devouring fishing boats and sweeping the countryside, and the villagers were in a state of panic all day. Ten years ago, another Taoist priest came and said that in order to avoid disaster, every year on the first day of July, all pigs, cows, boys and girls should prepare to worship the Black Dragon. Since then, the villagers have drawn lots every year to sacrifice boys and girls to stand on the beach to read the eulogy, and then throw the golden pig, Taurus and boys and girls into the sea. " The old man pointed to a deaf-mute woman crying into tears and a mature couple in front of the beach and continued: "The dragon girl is widowed in middle age. Last year, her son was buried in the belly of a fish. The boy in red and green in front of the beach is her grandson. This year's lottery is only the turn of this poor boy who left his abdomen. What a sin! "
The old man's words haven't finished yet. On the other side of Clam Island, the sea was stormy, and the dark clouds of sea and sky rolled, and the black dragon was faintly visible in the clouds. People on the beach were too frightened to run for their lives. When Daxian saw it, he murmured. A cloud rose from the incense burner peak, and Daxian boarded the cloud and waved Long Touzhang to the Black Dragon. I saw the black dragon bared its teeth and the big fairy was around to meet him. They fought fiercely in the air for half an hour, only to see the dragon defeated and plunged into the sea. Daxian took this opportunity to fly up his right leg and sweep away the black dragon. Unexpectedly, he pushed too hard and left his shoes on the hill of Xiawan in Dahao Island. At this time, the black dragon has fled to the sea outside the cocoon island. Daxian doesn't want to catch up. When he returned to the beach, the villagers kowtowed in succession, feeling the great kindness of Daxian in eliminating pesticides for the people. Daxian settled down the villagers and asked the old woman and the mother's parents to take back their grandson and beloved daughter. He turned to the villagers and said, "Although the black dragon escaped into the sea, the hidden danger has not been eliminated. I don't trust you. Take care and see you soon. "
Daxian was in a hurry, forgot his left shoe and drove Xiangyun back to Xiazidong. He summoned two immortals, Ma and Lu, and sent a message saying, "The Black Dragon raged in Chaoshan and was driven out of the sea for his teacher. You should go there as soon as possible to guard Haikou and let chaozhou people live and work in peace. " Two immortals of Red Deer got a decree and a gust of wind came to Haikou, Shantou. Lu Xian guards the north, and Ma Xian guards the south.
At present, Luzhou Island in Shantou Port and Mashan in Aotou Village are the incarnations of two immortals, Ma and Lu. They fulfilled their duties, did not violate the teacher's training, lived and worked in peace and contentment for the Chaoshan people, and made great contributions to the port construction in Shantou.
Let's talk about Daxian's shoes, which fell on the mountain and became shoe-shaped boulders. Today, the leather shoes and stones on Beixiawan Peak in Dahao Village are the shoes left by Daxian. Xia Zi Daxian has been barefoot since then, and later generations will call him the barefoot Daxian. The story of this great fairy who saved people's lives has been handed down from generation to generation in Dahao Island.
Third:
It is said that there is a place called "The Fairy Tale" in Houshan, shihe town, Luhe County, Guangdong Province. It is said that its name is due to an "accident" of the barefoot fairy.
One year, Daxian swam barefoot to the South China Sea and played chess with his elf friends in the South China Sea. Just as he was having a good time, the Queen Mother's decree suddenly came, asking him to go back to Kunlun Mountain immediately to attend the Millennium "Flat Peach Conference", so he quickly jumped into the clouds and flew west.
Just as he was flying over Ishiguro-machi village, he suddenly became anxious because he had just left in a hurry and drank too much fairy tea in Xianyou, Nanhai, and couldn't find a suitable place for convenience. His eyes suddenly lit up when he was in a hurry. It turns out that the hill behind Ishimachi Village below is full of flowers and beautiful scenery. So, he quickly parted Xiangyun, found a place full of dense forests and grass, and stood on a boulder. Then he looked around. He didn't care about the face of the fairy family. Let's solve the problem first.
Because he just held it too long and pulled it too fast. As a result, a bubble of hot urine came down and washed a hole in the stone. Besides, he was too heavy, so he left several obvious footprints on the stone.
After solving the problem, the barefoot Daxian did not stop to enjoy the beautiful scenery of Ishimachi Village, so he hurried to the west for fear of delaying the "Flat Peach Conference" hosted by the Queen Mother.
This stone is still well preserved today. It always tells people far and near about the "accident" of the barefoot fairy.
