Core tip: The mythical story of Nezha’s birth.
It is said that there was a chief military officer in Chentangguan, whose surname was Li and whose given name was Jing. He studied Taoism and practiced Buddhism since he was a child. He became a disciple of Zhenren Du'e of West Kunlun and learned the Five Elements Escape Technique. Because it is difficult to achieve immortality, he was sent down the mountain to assist King Zhou, to serve as an official and in charge of the army, and to enjoy the wealth and honor of the world. Yuan was married to the Yin family and had two sons: the eldest, Jin Zha, and the second, Muzha. Later, Mrs. Yin became pregnant again. It was three years and six months later and she had not given birth yet. Li Jing often felt worried and doubtful.
One day, he pointed at his wife's belly and said, "You have been pregnant for more than three years and you are still not born. You are either a monster or a monster." After hearing this, the wife was very troubled and said, "This is really not good. It's a sign, I'm worried about it day and night." After hearing this, Li Jing felt very unhappy. At three o'clock that night, while my wife was sleeping soundly, she dreamed of a man wearing a bun and a Taoist uniform walking into the incense room.
The madam shouted: "Why are you so rude? This is a woman's room. How can you come and go at will? It's so abominable!" The Taoist said: "Madam, pick up Lin'er quickly!" Madam Before he could answer, the Taoist man put something into his wife's arms. She suddenly woke up and broke into a cold sweat. So he hurriedly woke up Mr. Li and said, "In my dream just now... so and so..." He said it again. Before she finished speaking, Mrs. Yin felt pain in her abdomen. Li Jing became anxious and sat down in the front hall. I thought to myself: "I've been pregnant for three years and six months, and it's like this tonight. Could it be that I'm really going to give birth? I don't know whether it will be good or bad." While I was thinking, I saw two maids, who hurriedly came to report: "Master Qi: Madam has given birth to a baby." The goblin is coming!" When Li Jing heard about it, he hurriedly came to the wing, sword in hand, and saw a cloud of red air in the room, and a strange fragrance filled the room. There is a meat ball, spinning round like a wheel. Li Jing was shocked. He saw the flesh ball and slashed it with his sword, and there was a sudden sound. Split the meat ball, and a child jumped out. The ground was covered with red light, his face was like a powder, he had a gold bracelet in his right glove, and a piece of red silk wrapped around his belly, with golden light shining in his eyes.
Li Jing saw a child running on the ground after cutting open the meat ball. Surprised, Li Jing stepped forward and picked him up. He was obviously a good boy, but he couldn't bear to treat him as a monster and ruin his life, so he handed him to his wife. The couple was so in love that they couldn't part with each other and were very surprised. The next day, many officials came to congratulate him.
As soon as Li Jing finished entertaining, a lieutenant general came to report: "Master Qi: There is a person outside who wants to see you."
Li Jing was originally a Taoist sect, how dare he forget his roots, and hurriedly said: "Please come "The Chinese military officer asked the Taoist urgently.
The Taoist walked into the hall and said to Li Jing: "General, this poor Taoist has come to inspect his head." Li Jing hurriedly answered the courtesy and sat down with respect to the Taoist. The Taoist was dissatisfied, so he sat down.
Li Jing asked: "Teacher, where is the famous mountain? What cave? Now that I have come to this pass, do you have any advice?"
The Taoist replied: "The poor Taoist is the Jinguang Cave in Qianyuan Mountain. Master Taiyi heard that the general had given birth to a son, so he came to congratulate him and asked him to take a look. "Hearing what the Taoist said, Li Jing called his servant to take the general out. The servant took the young master out, and the Taoist took it in his hand, looked at it, and asked: "At what time did this son fall?" Li Jing replied: "He was born in an ugly time." The Taoist suddenly said: " Not good."
Li Jing hurriedly asked: "Is it possible that this child cannot be raised?"
The Taoist said: "No? This child was born in Chou and committed a crime of 1,700. "It is forbidden to kill."
He asked again: "Has this son ever been given a name?"
Li Jing replied: "No."
The Taoist said: "Wait." How about giving Pindao a name and becoming his disciple?"
Li Jing replied: "I would like to worship him as my teacher."
The Taoist asked: " How many sons does the general have?"
Li Jing replied: "I have three sons: the eldest son is called Jin Zha, who worships Manjusri Guangfa Tianzun in Yunxiao Cave in Wulong Mountain as his teacher; the second son is called Mu Zha, who worships in Baihe Cave in Jiugong Mountain. Master Pu Xian is his teacher. Since the teacher wants this boy to be his disciple, he just wants to take the Taoist as his teacher."
The Taoist stroked his beard and said, "This boy is the third one. , let’s call him ‘Nezha’.”
Li Jing thanked the Taoist and was about to call him to watch the meal, but the Taoist insisted on leaving, so Li Jing had to send the Taoist out of the house. The Taoist said goodbye and went directly. At this point, Nezha came to the human world.
