莫一大王故事的文献考论

Investigation and Analysis of the Literature of the Stories of the King Mo Yi

作为中国592*型"险避魔箭"故事的典型文例,莫一大王的故事在岭南广泛流传。若从文献记载和民俗历史入手,可以考知它是包括古代内地主流汉文化和边地少数民族文化在内的多元文化整合的结果。比如莫一大王的名号、坟山、宅树等都有其"王气"、"天子气"征兆,王者之气又与其赶山造海、朝往夕返的"法力"展示互为因果,共为表里。只是在尊王攘夷的极端传统里,这样的叛逆性僭越者终被除灭,当然他还永远存留在民族的现实感悟和历史记忆中。

The King Mo Yi＇s story which widely spreads in the area of Ling Nan was regarded as a typical example of the Chinese story ＂evading magic arrow＂ （AT592 ＊ ）. Based on the textual research and literature recordation, we may come to conclude that this type of story is a result of integration of multi-Culture, including the outback mainstream of Han-culture and the outfield minority cultures in ancient times. For instance, all about the influential figure, such as his given name, his cemetery and his dwelling trees, had signs of a King or an emperor who had theurgies driving mountain or traveling between capital and home. And there is an exterior and interior relationship and reciprocal causation between those signs and theurgies. Though the treacherous arrogator was ultimately exterminated in the extreme tradition of supporting emperor other than local leader, he is still remembered by his national fellows and has become part of their history.
