1, Wan Hui said.
Tian Ming Rucheng's Notes on Traveling to the West Lake, Volume II and Volume III, "In the Song Dynasty, Hang Cheng worshipped his brother in the twelfth lunar month. He looks like a smiling man with a broken head, dressed in green, holding a drum in his left hand and a stick in his right. The cloud is the god of harmony. Worship it can make people go back to Wan Li, so they will return to China someday. " Also, in the Tang Dynasty's Tian Kai Chuanxin Collection, it was said, "A fellow villager in Wan Li, if God doesn't use his feet, although his parents also regard him as a dolphin, dog and animal, is foolish and ignorant. My brother is stationed in Anxi, and his voice is blocked. His parents said he died sincerely and cried at night. Wan Hui suddenly knelt down and said,' Isn't crying my brother's sorrow? The general will know what to do. One day, I was prepared by Ben, went home at night and said to my parents,' Hello, brother. The book sent is the trace of my brother, and the family is different. Hongnong traveled thousands of miles to Anxi and returned to Wan Li, so it was called Wan Hui ". However, it is called "God of Harmony", which also means family harmony.
Hanshan picked up this theory.
The 8th issue of Folk Literature (1979) contains the Friendship of Two Immortals, and the story is a little cloud: During the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty, Hanshan Picked up lived in a remote mountain village in the north, although they were brothers with different surnames. Hanshan is older and likes a girl with a pickup truck. Hanshan doesn't know. I didn't know until I got married. I abandoned my family and went to Qiao Feng, Suzhou, Heshan and Jiangnan, where I cut my hair and became a monk and built a house for practice. I also gave up my daughter to find Hanshan. To find out where Hanshan lives is to fold a blooming lotus flower and watch the ceremony; Hanshan saw it and rushed out with a box of vegetarian dishes. They danced for joy and became monks. They opened a mountain and built a temple called Hanshan Temple. There is still a bluestone tablet in Hanshan Temple in Suzhou. The monument is engraved with the images of two brothers, with the names picked up by Hanshan written on it. However, ordinary people can't read. All previous dynasties only knew that one person held the "lotus" and the other held the "box", so it was called "Hehe Erxian".
3, Huashan Taoist said
According to Myths and Legends (literary volume), there lived a Taoist priest and two apprentices on Mount Yuntai in Huashan, who collected medicinal materials to cultivate monasteries. After cleaning the cooker, I accidentally dug in "ginseng essence" and "scutellaria essence" and simmered for seven days and seven nights. The master happened to have something to do down the mountain, and the "medicinal materials" stewed in the pot were eaten by two disciples. The Taoist priest came back and found that the pot was empty, so he hit it with a fire stick. The disciples fled in all directions and finally flew into the big stone wall to the north of Xifeng. From then on, people called the two figures standing hand in hand beside water curtain cave in Huashan Mountain "Hehe Erxian".
4, the goddess of wealth said
The article "God of Wealth" in "National Custom" says: In ancient times, there were two sisters, hehe hehe. After they made a fortune in business, the local ruffians came to blackmail them. The two sisters discussed how to do business at a loss, so that outsiders could know more and be quieter. In summer, a pound of silver buys a load of green rice, and dozens of piles are bought in the countryside. At that time, I thought it would rot in a few days, "stable compensation." Who thought that horse plague happened among the people, the old veterinarian said: it can be cured with yellow-green rice as medicine. So people snapped up at the price of two yuan per load. In autumn, the two sisters bought a lot of trees and firewood, and they "will definitely lose money" after lighting them with fire. Unexpectedly, the heavy rain turned the unfinished firewood into a charcoal mountain. It was frighteningly cold this winter, and everyone went to buy charcoal. The two sisters found too much. Hehe, hehe, you look at me and I look at you. No one can figure out what is going on. They couldn't help laughing. They all died laughing. From then on, everyone regarded Hehe and Hehe sisters as the gods of wealth and called them "Hehe Erxian".
5. Boyd Shu Qi said
According to Records of the Historian Biography of Boyi, "Boyi is the second son of Gu, and his father wants to establish himself. It's father, uncle Jean Boyi. Boyi Day:' Father's life is also'. So I ran away. Shu Qi refused to stand and escape. " After they left, "Chinese people set up children", assisted by Boyi's sister. Yiqi heard that Xibohou (Zhou Wenwang) practiced benevolent policies and treated the elderly well, so he went to the Western Zhou Dynasty and was highly respected. Zhou Wuwang is willing to "let the world"; Duke Zhou wanted to treat the two sages as "second-class officials", but Qi Yi was not affected, because they were solitary bamboo people, "ashamed to eat Zhou Su" and lived in seclusion in shouyangshan. Boyi and Shu Qi are not as powerful as dignitaries, and their lofty virtue of "comity for the country" is praised by later generations. There are also many temples and shrines in shouyangshan. In Baoduzhai Scenic Area, Luquan City, Shijiazhuang City, Hebei Province, there is a story about "Hehe Erxian", which is Boyi Shu Qi.
6. Frye Lexi said
There are two fairies in the novel Three Treasures to the Western Ocean in the Ming Dynasty, one is He Qian and the other is Wanhe. The two brothers are eccentric. They buy hats on the dog days of June and fans on the ninth day of the twelfth lunar month. So, first frost in June, the twelfth lunar month returns to the sun, which is quite a bit prophetic. There are similar legends in Nanfeng, Jiangsu and other places. Frye and Lacey brothers engage in anti-business, selling charcoal in summer, buying cheap and selling expensive in winter, and making big money at the end of the year. They are called "two immortals of harmony".
It stands to reason that "Hehe Erxian" is a Taoist immortal, such as Huashan Taoist priest and God of Wealth, which all conform to the Taoist immortal system. Why are there Confucian Boyi Shu Qi, Buddhist Wan Hui and Hanshan pickup mixed in? From its characters, history and times, we can see that the image of Hehe Erxian has a long and special evolution process.
The term "old man under the moon" first appeared in the Tang Dynasty in 807 AD, and it has been 1202. The image of Yue Lao appeared in the engagement shop in Li Fuyan's collection of novels "Continued Mystery" in the Tang Dynasty. (The original text is too long, search it yourself. )
Judging from the known literature, it should be that the old man appeared first. According to folklore, it is difficult to tell which one appears first.
