About where Jiang Ziya is from, at present, it is mainly concentrated in Shandong, Henan, Shaanxi, Anhui and Shanxi provinces. Among them, there are two places in Shandong where his hometown was recognized, and several other places where Jiang Ziya helped King Wu to cede land were later closed, so there was another "Jiang Taigong Temple" in Zibo.
According to records, his name is Jiang, Lu, Shang, Zi Ya, and also a famous tiger tooth, alias flying bear. Because his ancestors assisted Da Yuping's land and water work, he was named Lu, also known as Lu Shang. Here, there are "ancestors surnamed Lu", so there are "shilou county in Shanxi" and "Weihui City in Henan" to identify Jiang Ziya's hometown.
Character experience
Jiang Shang, a disciple of Jade Palace in Kunlun Mountain, was sent down to assist Mingjun and act as an immortal. Zhou Xibo dreamed of flying bear at night, met Ziya in Weishui, and worshipped Youtai, and the prince of Wu worshipped him as his father. After Yin 36 attacked the Zhou Dynasty, he sealed the list of gods and held a whip.
Fight against the head of the sect. After worshipping the general, Jintai was ready to make a crusade to turn Esau into Marshal Tang Tianbao. Yin Ke, the king of Wu, received an edict that the decree was insufficient and sealed 365 gods of justice. King Wu named it the Seven Yingqiu, the first of five kings and nine uncles. After this deity was sealed, Jiang Ziya's fate failed, but it was no accident that Jiang Ziya enjoyed the blessing of others.
Therefore, "there must be a king in 500 years, and there must be a celebrity in the meantime." Because of this, Yuanshi Tianzun knows his sincerity and integrity. He has studied the art of war in Qilin Cliff for more than forty years, and he is brilliant and proficient in six towers and three strategies. So he was sent to the next heaven to help the Zhou family win the world and enjoy the blessing of a very important person and minister.
In the meantime, the Buddha at the beginning gave Jiang Ziya a flogging, and after being sealed by the Buddha, he returned the flogging. Yuan Shi Tian Zun remembers his contribution to this deity, but he doesn't accept it, and gives a certificate to bypass the deity. Every time he goes, the gods make way temporarily, which is the so-called "squire is here, and the gods avoid it." Later, some people said that "the squire is here and the fairy abdicates."
