Biography of Wu gan, a medical god
In Zhangzhou, Quanzhou and Xiamen on the southeast coast of China, across the sea from Taiwan Province Island, and in Southeast Asia, there are temples of Wusong (Baosheng the Great) with golden walls. On the first day of the Lunar New Year, there are always people in the temple. Believers who come and go with reverence light a cigarette in front of Wu Kun (Emperor Baosheng) and whisper, hoping that Wu Kun (Emperor Baosheng)' s family will be safe, his children will study, their careers will be smooth, and they will not suffer from diseases or disasters. ...
Who is Wu Kun who won so many excellent men and women worship? Most people who don't understand this belief will imagine Wu Kun as a deity in the mysterious fairy world in the distant world. In fact, Wu Kun is not an out-of-touch visitor from heaven. Before he became a god, he was a real person, a folk doctor who lived in the Northern Song Dynasty thousands of years ago.
As for the activities before his death, shortly after his death, the tenth ancestor of Sun's surname in Xicun, Gaolin Village, Xiamen wrote The Story of the West Palace in the second year of the Northern Song Dynasty (1087), in which he recalled his ancestor Sun Tianxi's friendly exchanges with him before his death. Later, at the beginning of the13rd century, Jinshi, Yang Zhi, another scholar in Guangzhou, and Shouzhuangxia in Zhangzhou wrote the Tzu Chi Monument respectively. The two inscriptions introduced Wu Kun's deeds before and after his death in great detail. In addition, the white ancient genealogy discovered by Longhai also reveals the relevant information before death from a certain aspect. Next, we will start with the records of these original documents and unveil the mysterious curtain hanging over Wu Kun.
According to Yang Zhi and Zhuang Xia's "Ciji Palace Monument", the father's surname is Tong and the mother's surname is Huang, who lives in Bai Jiao and Qingjiao areas at the junction of Tongan County in Quanzhou and Haicheng County in Zhangzhou. Wu Kun/KLOC-0 was born in Song Taizong on March 5, 1979, and/KLOC-0 died in Song Renzong on May 2, 1979 at the age of 58. Wu Kun was a folk doctor with excellent medical skills and noble medical ethics. At the same time, he also has a strong color of learning immortals. For example, in the tablet of Tzu Chi Palace, Yang Zhi thinks that Wu Kun is "weak and difficult to control, not heartless, never marrying, but waiting for the living." The side behind the elbow in the pillow is not counted until the beginning. If you don't leave immediately after you are cured, you think you are a doctor. "It can be seen that Wu Kun didn't eat meat and didn't marry before his death, which is quite like a monk who strictly abides by the commandments; His excellent medical skills earned him the nickname "imperial doctor". In Zhuang Xia's works, Wu Kun's role as a doctor is quite similar to that of Taoism, and it is becoming more and more vivid. Wu Kun has been engaged in folk medical activities all his life, with excellent medical skills and excellent therapeutic effects. In addition, sometimes Wu Kun also uses some Taoist rituals to help patients solve their diseases, and the effect is equally remarkable. Zhuang Xia's "Tzu Chi Palace Monument" said, "Taste medicine and take the whole life as the heart. According to the condition of medication, such as breaking the media; Or suck water in for the patient to drink. It's strange, but it will be cured. It is built on those who are fierce, black and blue, gangrenous, promoted and held, and don't pay attention to their doors every day. "As you can imagine, if Wu Kun is willing, his brilliant medical skills can easily bring him luxury goods, even fame and fortune. However, Wu Kun, who was indifferent to fame and fortune, did not regard his brilliant medical skills as a tool to pursue fame and fortune. Throughout his life, he was determined to relieve people's illnesses. For patients seeking medical treatment at home, Wu Kun does not care about each other. " Regardless of rank, everyone is a doctor, and everyone is in his place, far and near Xian Yi. "Wu Kun's noble medical ethics were clearly reflected here.
Sun Jun's West Palace Tan Yue Ji also provides us with some important information about Wu Kun's activities before his death. In the West Palace, Sun Jun recalled the detailed process of their friendly exchanges after his father Sun Tianxi received treatment. Song Renzong Tiansheng four years (1026), Sun Tianxi fell ill after eating river fish, and nursed back to health at Qishan Jushi Temple near his home. More than a month later, there was an alchemist named Pei who raised the true Lao Tzu himself. He is over 80 years old, but he looks like a fairy in cassock. Pei Yangzhen traveled to the lay temple and met Sun Tianxi. His words were very speculative. It didn't take long for Wu Wuzhen, who lives in Bai Jiao, to be called an imperial doctor. He heard that Pei Yangzhen, who traveled all over Qishan Jushi 'an, "skillfully contracted the secrets of immortals and learned the art of cultivation" and was very accomplished in cultivating immortals, so he quickly waded across the river and came to visit and learn from them. As soon as Pei Yangzhen saw Wu Wuzhen, he was impressed by his different worldly appearance and speech, and "knowing is better than the world", so they got along very well. After becoming close friends, Pei Yangzhen made no secret of what she had learned and gave it to Wu Wuzhen, "I know it mysteriously." When they got along, Wu Wuzhen saw that Sun Tianxi was ill and treated Tianxi with wonderful hands. "It took three days to have the result, and it was calm in half a month. After reading "March", I have strong limbs and the same color. " After his recovery, Sun Tianxi was overjoyed and wanted to give him a hundred gold, but Wu Wuzhen refused. So Sun and Wu also became bosom friends. After Pei Yangzhen left, they kept exchanging messages.
Is Wu Wu in Sun Jun's article really Wu Kun? The answer is yes. At the beginning of the West Palace, it is pointed out that "there is Wu Xigong in the garden, and there is also a ancestral palace in the white reef. Gaibai Reef is the birthplace of martial arts, and Xigong is the beginning of martial arts enlightenment. " . Bai Jiao, where Wu Wuzhen was born, has a ancestral palace dedicated to Wu Wuzhen. These two can roughly explain that Wu Wuzhen and Wu Kun should be the same person. Importantly, when Sun Shi's descendants rebuilt the genealogy, they added a supplementary note at the end of the article "Xigong Tan Yueji", saying that "Wu Zhen was born in Taiping Xingguo, died at the age of four on March 15th, and died at Jingyou, at the age of three on the second day of May, and has been sealed sixteen times". From this point of view, Wu Wuzhen is, and Wu may be the Taoist name he used when he was practicing Buddhism. Judging from the stories recalled by Sun Jun, Wu Kun was very interested in Taoist magic before his death. After hearing the news, Pei Yangzhen went to Xiamen from Bai Jiao to visit the Jiulong River. At the same time, Wu Kun's medical skill is also quite brilliant. In the face of Sun Tianxi's condition, which has not improved for more than a month, it took effect after three days of pesticide application. Moreover, Wu Kun's medical ethics is noble. When Sun Tianxi rewarded his works with a hundred gold medals, he was not fascinated by money, but was calm.
In addition, some materials before his death were also left in the genealogy of ancient Bai. Ding Qian, the third ancestor of Longhai Ding Shi, left a will before his death, calling on future generations to do good deeds and help others in the form of poems, and his fourth son Ding Zuxu made a will. During the reign of Renzong in the Northern Song Dynasty, the ethnic group invited Wu Kun to record his will and narrate it in the ancestral hall: "When Song Renzong was in, Wu Zhenjun recorded this ode and narrated it for the world in the ancestral hall. At the end of the list, the title reads: On the auspicious day of the twelfth lunar month in the fifth year of Tiansheng, Wu Gan, who was in Bucuo, Quanjiao River, Puyang, was ordered to worship books. Judging from Wu Kun's signature, his own "Puyang" should be his native place, and "Quanjiaojiang" should refer to Tongan Bai Jiao, because the old society was under the jurisdiction of Tongan Quanzhou. This record provides strong evidence for the statement that Wu Kun was born in Bai Jiao. Moreover, as a local clan, Ding Shi will ask for help to re-record the exhortation of ancestors staying in the ancestral temple in the form of rare books, indicating that he had certain attainments in calligraphy during his lifetime and was proficient in Taoist rare books, so he was highly valued by Ding Shi.
Regarding Wu Kun's death, Zhuang Xia's "Ci Ji Gong Bei" only mentioned "death at home". However, when the local people learned of Wu Kun's death, they all thought that they had lost a good doctor with exquisite medical skills and noble medical ethics, and their hearts were extremely sad. In order to commemorate Wu Kun, people spontaneously collected medicine and made an alchemy at Green Reef before Wu Kun died, and built a humble little temple-Longqiu Temple, dedicated to the statue of Wu Kun, calling it a real person with medical spirit, and made sacrifices and prayers. Strangely, patients often recover after worshipping in Longqiao Temple. It seems that Wu Kun is still protecting his fellow villagers. As a result, the news spread from one place to another, and people from all over the world flocked to Longqiao Temple to pay homage to Wu Kun, hoping for an early recovery, and the result was equally obvious. Yang Zhi also recorded this strange thing in Tzu Chi Palace Monument. "There is no later, there are supernatural benefits. People with sores and diseases don't care about doctors, but they are asking for help. Pinch of salt water, cross the sword in front, burn incense and pray silently, Shen Jia has taken off. "
During the Shaoxing period of the Southern Song Dynasty, a group of arrogant thieves broke into the Bai Qing Reef, and the local victims went to the temple to pray for Wu Kun's blessing. Soon, the officers and men killed the general Li San in a fight with thieves, and the remaining forces were captured one after another. In order to thank Wu Kun for his help, Yan Shilu, a member of the Yanshi family of Qingjiao who was then a minister, invited the court to set up a temple in Qingjiao. So in the twenty-first year of Shaoxing in the Southern Song Dynasty (1 15 1), the humble and narrow Longqiao Temple was expanded into the majestic Puritan Tzu Chi Palace (Tzu Chi East Palace). In the same year, Bai Jiao people also spontaneously established a temple dedicated to Wu Kun, which is Tzu Chi Palace (Tzu Chi West Palace) in Bai Jiao. The East Palace and the West Palace were built in Shaoxing in the 21st year, and they are dedicated to the people of Zhangzhou and Quanzhou respectively. The statement that Bai Jiao Tzu Chi Palace was earlier than Qingjiao Tzu Chi Palace began with the myth of "Mud Horse Crossing the River" in Zhao Gou in the Southern Song Dynasty, which is not sufficient.
After the completion of Bai Jiao Tzu Chi Palace and Qingjiao Tzu Chi Palace, it seems that they are satisfied with the worship of believers, and Wu Kun has also helped the local people many times. The prime minister at that time was Liang Kejia from Jinjiang. He paid a visit to Wu Kun, who was enshrined in a temple in his hometown. It was very effective, so he asked the court for a temple, and the court awarded him the word "Tzu Chi". In Mao Yi, Qingyuan (1 195), the court also named Wu Kun as the loyal marquis. In the third year of the jubilee (1207), there was a serious drought in Zhangzhou and Quanzi, and the bare land was hundreds of miles long. People in Bai Jiao Town prayed for Wu Kun, which led to heavy rain. Subsequently, a large number of robbers wanted to enter the white reef, and suddenly they saw the magic soldiers blocking the defense line under the banner of "loyalty and loyalty", that is, they panicked and left. People in Bai Jiao reported these mental traces to the court, so the court named Wu Kun the Queen of England. In the third year of Li Zongbaoqing (1227), Wu Kun was added as Kang Youwei. Duanping for two years (1235), sealed the spirit to protect Hou. In the third year of Jiaxi (1239), lord protector was the golden phoenix. In the fourth year of Jiaxi (1240), Zhao Ya, an imperial envoy, thought that Wu Kun was kind to the world and not greedy for fame and fortune, so he wrote to the court, begged the marquis and changed his name to a real person. With the approval of the court, he was sealed as a real person. In the first year of Chunyou (124 1), the imperial court changed the temple into a palace, and Bai Jiao and Qingjiao Tzu Chi Temple were renamed Tzu Chi Palace. In the following years, the imperial court superimposed titles, and in the first year of Deyou (1275), titles accumulated to the six characters of Puyou Zhenjun in Fuhuimiao Road.
In the Song Dynasty, with the development and spread of the belief in Baosheng the Great, Wu Kun's deeds before and after his death began to be deliberately rendered and constantly deified by believers. Therefore, the vague image of Wu Kun in the above-mentioned documents of the Song Dynasty gradually became lively.
After the Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, the spread of the belief in Emperor Baosheng expanded, showing the trend of blooming everywhere, and the number of temples dedicated to Emperor Baosheng in various places also soared. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the belief in Baosheng the Great had gone out of Fujian and spread to Taiwan Province Province and Southeast Asia, the treasure island across the sea. According to the textual research of scholars in Taiwan Province Province, the earliest memorial service for the Emperor Baosheng in Taiwan Province Province recorded in the literature should be Daogong Temple in Chuguang Dongli, Tainan County, which was built during the Dutch occupation of Taiwan Province. Wang's "Rebuilding the County Records of Taiwan Province Province" contains: "When Holland occupied Taiwan Province, he built a temple in Dongli!" Since then, Zheng Chenggong's entry into Taiwan and the climax of Fujian people's emigration to Taiwan Province after the unification of Taiwan Province Province in the Qing Dynasty have strongly promoted the spread of the belief in Baosheng the Great in Taiwan Province Province. Today, the belief in Baosheng the Great has developed into a strong belief in the local gods in Taiwan Province Province. According to the statistics of Taiwan Province Baoshengdi Temple Association 200 1, there are 264 temples dedicated to Baoshengdi in Taiwan Province Province (excluding those who have not joined the association). At this point, in the administrative divisions of Taiwan Province, except Keelung City, there are more or less temples dedicated to the Emperor Baosheng. The activities of businessmen from Zhang Quan and Quanzhou in Southeast Asia during the Ming and Qing Dynasties also prompted Baosheng's belief to go abroad and settle in a foreign country in Wan Li. For example, when the Tianfu Palace in Singapore was completed in the 19th year of Daoguang (1839), the patron saint was one of the main gods. In the tenth year of Xianfeng (1860), Chen Zonghuai, a Chinese leader in Semarang, specially customized the statue of Baosheng the Great in Chinese mainland, and welcomed him back to the Academy. In addition, there are not a few temples dedicated to the emperor Bao Sheng in other Southeast Asian countries.
