Jieyi Chapter 04

Buyi tofu said the Water Margin series

Fourth round

Last time we said that before the interception of the birthday outline, they had to hold a righteous ceremony and worship the burning paper horse. So why did they order the dealer to prepare the paper and horse offerings the day before? In other words, the three animals, pigs and sheep required for sacrifice may indeed be slaughtered overnight, but the supply of paper and horse fragrance candles, assuming that like Wusong's house in Yanggu County, Water Margin, there is a paper horse shop next door or on the neighborhood. As long as the sacrifice ceremony was held the next day, I went to buy it next door.

One reason is that they just had just the next day, and when the sky was clear, the ceremony of the alliance was not enough to show "Zhicheng", so you had to prepare the materials overnight to rest assured. Another important reason is that it is likely that there is no paper and horse shop on their village. As a person in Dongxi Village, if you want to pray for God, you need to use the fragrant candle paper horse. It is likely that you need to go to Tancheng County, a subordinate area in Dongxi Village.

So why is there a paper horse shop near Wu Dalang's house? Because Yanggu County, where Wu Dalang lives, is the county town, the peril stone street where Wu Dalang lives is in the county seat, so there is a paper horse shop in the neighbor shop of Wu Dalang. The Wangjia Paper Store in "The Tu Tu of the Qingming River" is also in a metropolis like Tokyo Liang.

The story of "The Biography of the Three Sui Sui Ping Demon" in the Ming Dynasty began from the Hu staff of Kaifeng Prefecture, Tokyo in the Emperor Renzong of the Song Dynasty. You see, the old man is old, and the couple will ask for the son of God. "I heard that in the city's treasure officials, the Arctic Yusheng Jun is very inspired. If I picked you a good day, I would like to tell the Junjun in the fragrant candle and pray. Also as a person who worshiped in front of the grave. "

"After a few days, when I encountered Ji Riliang, I called Dangzhi incense paper, arranged the sedan horse, followed the maid to follow, went to the head of the Gate of Shangxian Palace, closed the car horse, walked into the palace, went to the main hall, went to the main hall, and went to the main hall. Burning incense, it is not necessary to burn all the halls of each hall. " In order to show Zhicheng, "Since then, every month and 15th will go to burn incense to ask for sons, it has been a year."

It can be seen that the couples of the Hu Liang of Tokyo ask for a child to pray. That must be prepared for fragrant candle paper. Here, the fragrant candle paper can also be referred to as incense paper. The husband and wife of the Hu begged for the sake. Whenever the fifteenth day of the early days, he went to burn incense and asked for the son. Every time he prayed, he also had to use paper horses. It can be seen that the supply of paper and horses at the time was abundant, the demand was full of demand, and frequently used.

In the future, the Hu officer really gave birth to a daughter, called Yong'er, but this Yong'er was unhappy. One day, the staff went out to buy something and returned. ! "Go to the sleeve and find a piece of silver. The staff was in their hands and looked at it, there were about twenty -four five. The member said: "This ingots came from the silver?" Yong'er said: "I saw the older who bought the fragrant paper in front of the door, and the car had a paper -silver ingot on the car. . "The member said:" What is worth the one hundred money? If it becomes gold and silver, my three mouths are still rich! " If it becomes a half ingot, it will not help, and it will become thirty or twenty ingots. A sip of water, drinking the way: "Disease!" When I looked up the skirt, I saw a bunch of gold and a bunch of silver on the ground. The Hu staff looked outside, and joy had to say that he had the strength of his daughter and became a lot of gold and silver.

We don't care about Yong'er's spells here for the time being. The above paragraph reveals two information. First, the use of folk paper horses in the Liangliang of Tokyo at that time was very common. There is a fragrance paper for praying for God in the car. Assuming that this "old child who bought fragrant paper" is actually a older who sells fragrant paper, it is even more interesting, that is, it means Fragrant vendor. The existence of mobile trafficking means the popularity, daily and multi -frequency of paper horse consumption.

Secondly, when Hu Yu saw that his daughter could turn the paper ingot into a true ingot, and for a while, I walked into the paper horse shop and bought the three hanging gold and silver ingots to return to the daughter. He turned around to buy gold and silver ingots, and he would definitely not go far. It can be seen that the paper horse shop where the Hu worked was near his house. Therefore, we can understand that in the imagination of the author of "San Suiping Demon Biography", the paper and horse shop of Tokyo Liangliang can be found everywhere, which is very convenient. At that time, the paper horse consumption had also become the daily consumption of citizens' lives. It is just like a paper horse shop near Wu Dalang's house in Yanggu County, Water Margin.

At the beginning of "Vinegar Gourd" in "Vinegar Gourd" in the Ming Dynasty, the scholars in Lin'an Mansion were called Cheng Yan, because there were no children under the knee, and in their early years, I wish to be Guanyin in white, but they have always been omitted, and there is no wish. I did not give my son -in -law, so I met his wife to go to Tianzhu to pray the gods the next day. The wife said, "It is tomorrow. You can go Zhou Zhai in person, but I prepare for the fittest at home." The husband and wife were divided into work. The husband went to ask his former partner Zhou Zhi and his wife, and his wife Du was preparing for incense at home.

After the book, there is a clear saying, called: "Cheng Yan went out in the evening, but Du Shi prepared a spices at home." It can be seen that it is already evening when the husband and wife discussed the incense activities, and the incense of the wife prepared at home, In addition to using wine and food, there are also spices, which should be fragrant and paper horses.

Du Shi has been organizing incense supplies from the evening, and starting the two in the morning the next morning, the time that can be used is at night. It can be seen that in the novel "Vinegar Gourd", Lin'an as a metropolis, the consumption of paper horses is also very convenient to consumption. In the evening, I thought it was temporarily, and we had to use it the next morning, and it was appropriate to handle it that night. At the same time, we can also know that Lin'an Paper Horse Shop has been opened until night, at least until the evening.

In the future, in order to block the name of her husband's use of her husband, the jealous Du Shi commissioned the matchmaker Wang Po to find the female eunuch -like girl in her thirties and wait for the boudoir. Zhongxian said that the young couple moved many silver to the room and laughed: "Old mother, I gave birth to a complete child, and they were asked by him. After paying the debt. Although there are all hundreds of color in his family, my family must also prepare a little bit. Go to buy silk, call the joint, set the woodenware, and make jewelry. " In the morning, I asked the silver in the morning, and I was prepared at night. " It can be seen that in Lin'an, which has been spoke, as long as there is silver, you are not afraid to buy things.

We have also said before, legendary in the book "Ru Meng Lu" written by the survivors in the late Ming Dynasty, it describes the existence of open paper horse shops in the late Ming Dynasty. , Porcelain, pawnshop, paper and horse shops, namely incense, five god horses and gods. " In Xiongjia Hutong in the Craftsman Hutong and the Wangfu of the Mall, "There are mills, hotels, paper and horse shops." Self -promoting Shengtang to the east to the Bay Bay, there is a grandma temple in the south to the north. There are "mills, hotels, paper horses incense shops" in the south of Beimen Avenue, and Fo Tongkou Hutong. It can be seen that at the time, the workshops of the gate gods and the stores that sold paper horses were stored in Kaifeng.

For another example, Jiangnan Wuxi, since the rise of the wooden printing industry since the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the copper -live printing books have appeared. Among them, the books printed by the Wuxi Wangguo Anguo (Gui Po) are named after the "Guopo Pavilion". The book version of the book has led to the popularity of other folk carved prints. Wuxi foil horse makes people look impressive with its unique artistic style and is famous for Kyoto. The Qing Dynasty Pan Rongye's "The Emperor's Capital Ji Sheng · Huangdu Pinhui" wrote:

"What is the first to set up the annual goods? Xiangyun Yunma, must be used for sacrifice to the god hall, thousands of ingots, door gods come to Wuxi."

The finishing touch is the word Wuxi in Wuxi in Wuxi, which is the place of origin, which clearly understands the place of origin, but in fact, the word Yunma is actually the paper horse.

In the early years of the Republic of China, "Overview of Wuxi" recorded that at the time, Wuxi's paper industry had Yan Changxing, Xin Changxing, Chen De Da and other shops. 1918年后，无锡东西南北四城门都有了纸马（纸扎）店铺，并成立了纸扎同业公会，供奉唐代画圣吴道子为祖师。 After the victory of the War of Resistance Against Japan, Wuxi had 42 paper (paper horse) shops. There were Tao Yuanmao and Zhang Zhenfeng in the large city bridge in the city. Liu Yuansheng and Zhang Hengchang, Zhou Shanhuan has righteousness and Xu Hengmao, and there are well -known shops such as Qiang Yuxing, Yongdachang, and Qian Yucheng in Ximen shed. With the changes in society, around 1958, Wuxi's foil horses have become increasingly dead. It can be seen that whether it is the Tokyo Liang of the Song Dynasty, the Yanggu County of the Water Margin, the Kaifeng Mansion of the Ming Dynasty, and the Wuxi County of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, all of them are piles of paper and horse.

Mr. Zhang Daoyi also keenly pointed out the relationship between Jiangnan paper horses and the distribution of Taoist culture.

The prayer God asked paper horses to go to paper horse shop. Tao Siyan once said in "Chinese Paper Horse and Japan's Emohom Theory", "Please use the Taoist priests to open a god position by the Taoist priests, and the victims to the paper horse shop to buy; ;

Du Renjie, who lives between Jin Yuan, vividly described the story of a township in the city involved in the hookrack in " "The wind and the people are so happy that the people are happy, and the dealers are happy. Mulberry silkworms are very harvested, and the lawsuits are not very different. When the village is promised, I still wish to buy some paper fires in the city. The list is not like that answer. "Among them, it clearly pointed out," When the village is promised, I still wish to come to the city to buy some paper fires. " Some paper fires have to go to the city to buy.

It can be seen that these so -called "paper fire" such as fragrant candle and paper horses are special supplies for ordinary rural people. They are not available in rural areas. In the willingness to return, they have to invite paper horses, so they have to go to the city to buy. I also want to use the problem of paper horses in the ceremony, and we will talk about it in detail in the future.

This is also easy to understand. Although there are also temples and temple fairs in rural areas, the temples and cities in the counties, the temples are lined, and the incense is more prosperous. The demand is more abundant, the long -term stable and huge demand, coupled with the various materials, tools and talents provided by the city, thereby giving birth to organic production, transportation, and wholesale sales chain. It's not surprising. In the Water Margin, there is a Lingguan Temple in Dongxi Village where Ji Gai is located. Lei Heng patrols at night and returns to Dongxi Village Mountain. The book says that everyone picked the red leaves and came down to the village. With less than three or two miles, I went to Lingguan Temple early, and saw that the temple door was not closed. Lei Hengdao: "There is no temple wish in this temple. Isn't the temple door? Are there any people in it? Let's go straight and take a look." As a result, a big man was lying on the table, and that was Liu Tang. The Lingguan Temple of Dongxi Village was not closed at night. Regardless of whether Lei Heng broke in with the archers and the people, or Liu Tang snoring on the table, no one asked. Moreover, Lei Heng said clearly: "There is no temple wish in this temple." It can be seen that there is a rural temple in charge of no one.

Therefore, Dongxi Village, which is under the jurisdiction of Tancheng County, also has the Lingguan Temple and Guanyin — the outline of the birthday in the future. Cover, "All get Avalokitesvara to take Qi Qi". However, Dongxi Village, as a rural country, is all small temples. Otherwise, there are many monks, management, and strong incense.
