In the second year of Yongping, he went to "speak out and give advice". When Emperor Hanming worshipped Jiangzhou in Ba County (now Chongqing, Sichuan Province), he soon retired to Beimang Mountain (now near Luoyang, Henan Province) to practice the way of harmony, avoid the valley, sleep less and live longer. Five years before the founding of the People's Republic of China, he was unable to raise a virtuous man, was re-employed as a doctor, and was named Hou of Jixian County, but three letters were not enough. Later, he entered the State of Wu. He liked the beautiful scenery of mountains and rivers in Shu, so he went to Shu and hid in He Mingshan to practice magic.
Zhang Daoling has disciples Wang Chang and Zhao Sheng, who studied the way of Huang Lao with them, helped to refine and rejuvenate the dragon and tiger, and traveled to Yuan Xian.
One day, he met an embroiderer in Songshan Mountain, Beiyue, and told him, "There are Huang San's secret words and Huangdi Jiuding Dan Shu in the stone house of Zhongfeng. If you can fix them, you can ascend to heaven! " So Zhang Daoling stopped fighting and went into the stone room. Sure enough, he got the collection of Dan Scripture, so he went to Yunjin Mountain (Dragon and Tiger Mountain) to meditate and practice, and got the merit of taking pictures.
I woke up like a dream in the middle of the night when I suddenly saw the old man coming down. He said to Zhang Daoling, "Recently, there were six demon kings in Shu, who were violent and gave birth to people. If you go to cure, your merits will be boundless, and you will be listed in Dan Tai! " Awarded with "Zhengyi Meng Wei Fu Lu", 35 female and male swords to kill evil spirits, Yang Ping to rule the capital, a flat crown, eight skirts, square skirts, shoes and so on. Dating in Yuen Long for 1000 days.
Zhang Daoling, taught by the old gentleman, is said to be able to set 36,000 gods as drivers. He immediately went to Qingcheng Mountain, set up a glass tower, with the original Buddha on the left and the 36 holy scriptures on the right, set up ten unique flags, rang bells and used magic.
The devils and devils pleaded with one voice, and they were all impressed, saying that they would never abuse the people again. Zhang Daoling collected eight ghosts and gods, destroyed six demons, and the demons became extinct. He and his disciples Wang Chang and Zhao Sheng went to Yuntai Mountain in central Sichuan to continue their cultivation.
After the old gentleman hid the demon, he ordered the messenger to come down and tell him, "The son's achievements are in the position of immortality, but killing too many ghosts is not the purpose of good life." My son needs to be repaired for another 3,600 days, so I will wait for him at the Bajing Palace in Shangqing. "So Dowling took his disciples Wang Chang and Zhao Sheng to Hemingshan, where he studied for more than 20 years.
In the first month of the first year of Yongshou, according to legend, the old gentleman of Taishang returned to the truth with others and said for Zhang Daoling, "Beidou extended the True Classics" and "March 8 apologized". In the spring of the second year of Yongshou, the three gods met under the altar of the Yellow Emperor in Qingcheng Mountain, formed an alliance of five mountains and four blasphemies, and established twenty-four governance and a ghost prison in Futing. Set up 30 true altars and 60 true altars, 72 blessed places, order people to be in the bright sun and ghosts in the shadows, set up wine festivals and praise metaphysics by male and female officials. At that time, Taoism began to have a formal religious organization.
Zhang Daoling led his disciples to travel around the world, fighting evil in evil lanes and seizing salt ponds, making contributions to the benefit of Shu people. It is said that after his success, the old gentleman was awarded the title of Zhengtian teacher.
On September 9, the second year of Yongshou, he went to Yunhe Mountain and found that the peaches under the rock were ripe, so he ordered Wang, Zhao and other disciples to go all out to get them, and handed down the scriptures himself. Later, it was recorded by Yu, Yin, Jian and Du Gongfu. Grant Jpua said, "When I met my grandparents, I learned the Tao. This article received a total of 30 thousand credits, which is a fulcrum. My son gave me a place in the world, and I can't pass it on to my grandparents' descendants. " It was with Wang Chang and Zhao Sheng that Yuntai Mountain soared in the daytime.
Zhang Daoling, because it has set up twenty-four governance in Shu and Han, is a street paving organization. Anyone who enters the Tao pays five meters as a letter, which is later called "Five Mi Dou Roads". Because Zhang Ling is the first generation of Shi Tian in this religion, its followers are honored as "the ancestors of Heaven". People also call it "Shi Tian knife". Zhang Tianshi respected Laozi as his ancestor, regarded Laozi's Five Thousand Pieces as the highest classic, and wrote Laozi's Notes on Xianger, which gave full play to Laozi's Taoist thought. Taking "Tao" as the highest belief, I compare "Tao" with Laozi, and advocate "one" and "two scattered into qi, together into a gentleman".
When Emperor Gaozu Shi Tian was in Tang Xizong, he was named "exorcist, teaching for three days"; In the Song Dynasty, it was named as "Three-day support for the auxiliary exorcists, and one school of worship should show support for the true king"; Yuan Chengzong named it "urgency is deifying, while quietness should help a true gentleman". The fourth generation Shi Tian Zhang Sheng moved his French descent from Hanzhong, Shaanxi Province to Longhu Mountain, Jiangxi Province. Now the Shi Tian House in Shangqing Town of Guixi County is its legacy.
