Xintai dialect joke

Some people say that the Five Mountains return without looking at the mountains, and Mount Tai returns without looking at the mountains. Visible the importance of Mount Tai! Tai 'an is famous for Mount Tai. Many people travel to Tai 'an in order to climb Mount Tai. But many people don't know that Taian was a ghost town in ancient times. There are three main reasons: first, the propaganda of feudal kings; One is the propaganda of Buddhism and Taoism; Another is the spread of literati.

First, the propaganda of feudal kings strengthened this impression.

Many people know that Qin Shihuang sealed Mount Tai mainly because of the important position of Taishan people. Mount Tai is related to the five elements. In the theory of five elements, the east belongs to wood. In the five permanent members, it means benevolence and righteousness, and in the gossip, it means earthquake (earthquake, me too). There is a passage in Zhouyi that describes "The Emperor was shocked". For emperors, Mount Tai is really important.

It is a great honor for the emperor to worship Mount Tai. When Qi Huangong wanted to worship Mount Tai, he was opposed by Guan Zhong. Even a wise monarch like Emperor Taizong did not offer meditation. They think that Mount Tai is a sacred mountain and they can't go there easily. The theory of treating ghosts with sacred mountains has been circulating for a long time. There is such a record in the biography of Wu Huan in the later Han Dynasty: the soul of the deceased belongs to Daishan. It is precisely because of this that monarchs are in awe.

Some monarchs think Mount Tai is a place to cure ghosts and dare not go there easily. The monarchs believed, and the ministers echoed. This idea spread from top to bottom, and people gradually believe that Mount Tai is the place to treat ghosts, and Tai 'an is the place where ghosts often go. This is not to say that Tai 'an is not good, but that Tai 'an is a place where souls meet with God.

Taian is a famous mountain here. Besides Mount Tai, there is another mountain called Li Hao. We often say that the soul belongs to mugwort, and Song Li refers to mugwort mountain. "Historical Records" once recorded: "In December, Wu Jiashuo, pro-Zen Korea, behind the shrine." Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty visited Mount Tai many times, mainly for the sake of long-term stability, but this behavior became a joke for future generations. Anyway, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty attached great importance to this place.

Not only the Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty attached importance to this place, but also other monarchs, not only monarchs, but also some Buddhists and Taoists. The main reason why they are concerned is for the further development of Buddhism and Taoism, and for more people to believe in their thoughts. They know the position of Mount Tai in people's minds, so they closely combine Mount Tai with the views they preach.

Second, the propaganda of Buddhism and Taoism deepened this impression.

Many people know that Buddhism spread to China in the Han Dynasty, and the White Horse Temple is a proof that Taoism is our native land. Buddhism and Taoism developed well in Wei and Jin Dynasties because their propaganda was in line with the context at that time. Buddhists pay attention to causality. Only by enduring the present can we be a good person and enjoy prosperity in the afterlife. Taoism pays attention to eating and drinking, muddling along, adapting to the needs of some people, and Buddhism and Taoism can flourish.

Buddhists promote Mount Tai in order to expand their influence. Zhao Pu Temple takes the meaning of "Buddha shines brightly" to promote Buddhism, and its location is very close to Mount Tai. The same is true of yuquan temple, because there is Gushan in the south and Yuquan in the east, hence the name Gushan Temple, also known as yuquan temple. The purpose of being close to Mount Tai is to enhance the status of Buddhism in everyone's mind. Some people can't climb to the top of the mountain, so they may stay at the foot of the mountain, which is why Buddhism built it near the foot of Mount Tai.

According to Buddhism, Li Hao, also known as Rosen, belongs to the place of judgment in the underworld (according to the old people, it is best to tell the truth in this place. This superstitious idea is not credible. They also promote the Yin and Yang world and Meng Po Tang, mainly to make everyone have awe and believe their stories. Taoist propaganda of Mount Tai is even more. Jade Emperor Pavilion, Sanyang Temple and Guandi Temple are all Taoist buildings.

Buddhism and Taoism mainly expound human life and death, which objectively deepens the gloomy meaning of Taian. In fact, these do not exist. Don't believe them, let alone spread them. After all, we are scientifically educated people and naturally know that these things are feudal superstitions. As for some people, I believe they just want to make them feel awe and not do bad things. From this perspective, there are still some positive factors.

Third, the propaganda of the literati made everyone believe this kind of rhetoric.

Scholars are idle and willing to use their knowledge to elaborate some viewpoints. Cao Cao's "Good Li Xing" said that more people died in Haoli, which became the gathering place of ghosts and gods. In Yuefu poems, there is "Whose land is Artemisia?" There is a saying that gathering souls without wisdom and stupidity. During the Three Kingdoms period, there was also a saying that "the soul belongs to Mount Tai and hell", which deepened everyone's impression. Let many people believe that Li Hao is the location of ghosts, and it's not easy to go there unless you have to. Taian ghost town theory spread like wildfire.

The description of literati may be to express new ideas or to sell fear, which objectively deepens the rhetoric of Tai 'an ghost town. Many ordinary people, with little knowledge and culture, believe it when they say so. Anyway, if you go to Tai 'an, you must see Mount Tai and Li Hao. You are not a hero until you reach Mount Tai! Mount Tai is a sacred mountain, which can cure ghosts. Haoshan is the place where ghosts go. Then, Taian became a place where ghosts and gods get along. Do you know the mystery?
