Textual research on the origin of Taigong strange gate

Taoism and Taiyi Shenshu, the six benevolent sects, are known as the three sects in the world, among which Taoism is the oldest. It is said that it has been more than 5,000 years since Xuan Nv gave Xuanyuan Huangdi nine days to destroy Chiyou. Daoism was called Yin Fu in Zhou and Qin Dynasties, Liu Jia in Han and Wei Dynasties, Dunjia in Sui, Tang and Song Dynasties, and Daoism after Ming and Qing Dynasties.

According to legend, Taoist magic originated in ancient times. It is said that in the ancient East, there was a Li Shouling named Chiyou who made trouble for people. Because he has eighty-one brothers, all made of copper and iron, who have the ability to call the shots, and no one can beat him. Seeing the people living in "dire straits", the Yellow Emperor was very painful, so he set out to conquer Chiyou. The two armies crusaded against Zhuolu in Hebei, but because Chiyou was too brave, the Yellow Emperor was deadlocked for a long time, bleeding thousands of miles, and could not win. Just as the Yellow Emperor was depressed and bored, suddenly the clouds in the sky dispersed, and two prodigies appeared, claiming to have come to the Yellow Emperor on the orders of "Nine Days Xuan Nv". Huang bowed down and took it, and Huang Di took it and opened it. There is a dragon seal written in seal script; According to the method of making weapons recorded in the book, the Yellow Emperor also recorded many art of marching and fighting. So the Yellow Emperor asked Hou Feng, the prime minister, to translate Long Jia's article into the thirteenth article of Sun Tzu's Art of War and the twelfth article of Lonely and Virtual Law, thus creating a Daoshu Bureau of 1,080. Then he made a south guide car, thus defeating Chiyou.
