At the beginning of this year, the leopard essence in " Journey to the West " suddenly became popular. The reason is very simple - he homophonic "leopard rich", who doesn't like "get rich"?
But I only talked about this topic today, is it a little late?
Okay, let's talk about something else - Sun Wukong Why is he so upset when he sees this leopard sperm, but why doesn't he kill him?
To be precise, Sun Wukong got angry after Leopard Jing introduced himself. He said:
"This bold hairball! How old can you be to be called Nanshan? Li Laojun is the founder of the world. He is still sitting on the right of Taiqing; the Buddha Tathagata is the ruler of the world, and he also sits under the Dapeng; the sage of Confucianism is the master of Confucianism, and he is only called the master. You evil beast, what dare you call the king of Nanshan , centuries of debauchery!" Isn't it common for
goblins to call themselves "king"? Why did Sun Wukong move out Taishang Laojun , Tathagata Buddha , and Kong Shengren? The problem with
lies in the word "Nanshan" in the title.
Leopard Jing originally lived in Yinwu Mountain , but he was known as the "King of Nanshan" - obviously, he found a famous mountain name to put gold on his face.
In Chinese myths and legends, the most famous "Nanshan" is actually Zhongnanshan , which is located near Xi'an, Shaanxi Province.
Zhongnan Mountain, also known as Taiyi Mountain, Difei Mountain, Zhongnan Mountain and Zhounan Mountain, is the common holy place of the three schools of Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism.
In Taoism , Zhongnan Mountain is the place where Lao Tzu taught "The Tao Te Ching", and also the birthplace of Quanzhen religion. The tomb of the living dead in "The Legend of Condor Heroes" is in Zhongnan Mountain. Zhongnan Mountain is one of the birthplaces of Taoism, known as "the crown of the cave" and "the first blessed land in the world". In addition to Lao Tzu, Jiang Ziya, Zhang Liang, Wang Wei , Wang Chongyang , etc. have all lived in seclusion here.
In Buddhism, Chinese Buddhism 5 of the 8 sects have ancestral courtyards or central monasteries on this mountain. In addition, monk Zhao , Daosheng , Daorong, Daoxuan and other eminent monks have all lived in seclusion in Zhongnan Mountain.
In Confucianism, because Zhongnan Mountain is close to Chang'an , it is the best place for scholars to "leave the city without leaving the dust", and then enter the official career through seclusion and fame. ".
- let's put it this way, Zhongnan Mountain is equivalent to Jerusalem . A goblin who claims to be the "King of Nanshan" is like a cult leader who says he is the "King of Jerusalem". Those who believe in Jesus and Muhammad will not tolerate him. As a dual disciple of Taoism and Buddhism, Sun Wukong cannot tolerate this title.
But after Sun Wukong made a rant, he suddenly counseled again. He didn't kill the leopard spirit right away, and even when he entered the fairy cave to save Tang Seng, he hesitated several times:
is a great saint, flying in the middle hall, looking around, and seeing a small door next to it, it was closed. It was very tight, that is, when I drilled through the crack of the door to see it, it was a big garden, and I heard a faint sound of sadness. The trail flew into the depths, but saw a big tree, two people were tied under the tree, and one of them was Tang Seng. The walker said: "Master, don't just call your name, there are people in front of you, and you are afraid of the news. If you have your life, I can save you. The blame only said that you have eaten you, take a dummy head to coax me, we Hate and stand with him. Master, don't worry, let's wait until I knock down that goblin before I can rescue him." The
traveler was secretly delighted, and then jumped down and showed his true appearance. He took a stick out of his ear, and it was about the thickness of a duck egg. With a bang, he broke the side door, ran to the back garden, and shouted, "Master!" The elder said: "Apprentice, come and untie the rope, and tie me up. It's over!" The walker said, "Master, don't be too busy, I'll deal with you after I kill the goblin." He hurriedly pulled away and ran to the middle hall. Just as he was raising his stick to fight, he stopped his hand and said, "Not good! Wait until Master is resolved to fight." After returning to the garden, he thought about it again: "Wait for a fight." dance into the garden.
Sun Wukong is obviously delaying time.
Because at this time, Sun Wukong had so many experiences of catching goblins and had to let them go,Hearing this leopard spirit call him such an awesome title as "The King of Nanshan", he suspected that there was someone behind this leopard spirit, so he deliberately delayed the time so that the mastermind behind the scenes would show up.
But after grinding and grinding, Sun Wukong never saw any god or Buddha coming down, so Sun Wukong was relieved - it seems that this leopard essence has no background.
But is there really no origin for the leopard essence?
still exists.
The prototype of this leopard essence comes from the "Nanshan Leopard" in "Biography of Women":
's concubine heard that there are black leopards in Nanshan, and those who do not eat for seven days after fog and rain, why? If you want to make an article out of lustre. Therefore, it is hidden and harmed far away. ——"Biography of Lie Nu", Volume 2 "The Legend of Xian Ming, Tao Xunzi's Wife"
Translation:
I heard that there is a black leopard in Nanshan, which can not eat in fog and rain for seven consecutive days, why is this? What? It intends to turn its hair into patterns that are conducive to camouflage, so as to hide itself and keep away from predators. The allusion
derives the word "Nanshan Leopard", which is used to describe a person who lives in seclusion, cherishes his body, and does not do anything.
Li Bai , Du Fu have all mentioned the "Nanshan Leopard":
I'm on the north side and learn from the Nanshan Leopard. ——Li Bai " After the chaos, he will leave the shelter to Cui Xuancheng "
The hidden leopard is deeply worried about the rain, and the hidden dragon rises in the clouds. ——Du Fu "The Drama Sent to Cui Pingshi, Cousin Su Wu, Cousin Wei Da Shao Fu and Nephews"
is from "Biography of Women", how powerful can he be?
We describe people as daring, and often say "you have eaten a leopard's guts." This leopard essence is also obviously "stupid and bold". What if the title of
is bluffing? Once Sun Wukong learned that Leopard Jing had no background or background, he instigated Zhu Bajie to "step up and kill the old monster". ——This monkey didn’t do anything by himself, and he also left a way out for himself.
As the saying goes, "Shoubi Nanshan", but the Leopard Jing, known as the "King of Nanshan", was killed. This is also a warning to the world: people should not stand up in disorder. Some stars in the entertainment industry connotation). As the saying goes:
There are good leopards in good, and evil leopards in evil. It's not that there is no leopard, the stone monkey has not arrived yet.
