Back to the early Tang Dynasty to be a fairy

Chapter 366 The poor road, Zuoyouxian, specially invited the gods to come out of the mountain

Tianzhu Mountain, also known as Qianshan, Wanshan, and Wangong Mountain, is the most famous mountain and river in Anhui. Even the abbreviation of Anhui is derived from this. Surrounded by thousands of rocks and ravines, far and near, large and small, they all surround and worship. Since ancient times, it has been a place where hermits and Taoists like to live in seclusion. It is known as one of the eight pillars of heaven. cloud thunder. '

At this time, on the northern foot of Tianzhu Peak, a Taoist priest wearing a blue Taoist robe, carrying a sword, and three long beards, is leading two Taoist boys with baskets on their backs, with anxious expressions on their faces. Looking around.

"This stone is not, not big enough..."

"That's not the case, there is no Tao on it..."

"That's not it. Which stone is the monk Zhiwei talking about?"

"..."

Just when Zuo Youxian was fluttering in his heart, he suddenly heard Dao Tong beside him pointing his hand towards the front right, and said excitedly.

"Master Zuo, look at that stone..."

Zuo Youxian raised his head and looked in the direction of Daotong's finger, just in time to see a huge and abrupt boulder, very huge, like a huge house, on the upper right corner of the stone is engraved with a big Dao characters, the middle of the handwriting is also coated with cinnabar powder, which is very eye-catching.

"Yes, it's here!"

Saying that, Zuo Youxian stepped forward two steps excitedly, followed the instructions of Monk Zhiwei, and lightly tapped the boulder three times with his hand.Just when his hand left the boulder, after a click, a dark cave appeared on the boulder.

Then Zuo Youxian saw an old man with frosty beard and frosty hair wearing clothes made of bird feathers and a black hat coming out, and said grandly.

"Fellow Daoist He Fang, visiting the old man?"

After seeing the old man, Zuo Youxian didn't dare to neglect, he raised his hand to salute.

"The impoverished Taoist Zuo Youxian, got advice from the monk Zhiwei, and came here to pay homage to the god."

"Monk Zhiwei..."

The old man thought for a while and nodded.

"Could it be the little novice monk who followed the great monk Zhang'an? It's not an outsider."

As he spoke, he looked up at Zuo Youxian again.

"Through the door, you are a guest. Since you have come to the old man's door, friend Zuo, please come in. Let the old man entertain you..."

After hearing the old man's words, Zuo Youxian saluted respectfully again.

"Thank you, Lord God!"

After Zuo Youxian walked into the boulder black hole, he felt as if he had entered a peach blossom garden.

'At the beginning it was very narrow, only to understand people, and after dozens of steps, it suddenly became clear. '

He looked around and found that the scene inside the cave was also very similar to Peach Blossom Spring, the land was flat and the fields were flat, and there were many exotic flowers and grasses on both sides of the road.

"It's really a paradise..."

Looking at the surrounding scenery, Zuo Youxian complimented with emotion.

"Shenjun, is this place the Peach Blossom Spring?"

"Hahaha……"

After hearing Zuo Youxian's words, the old man stroked his beard with his hand and laughed triumphantly.

"Of course not, but this old man thinks that this place is better than Peach Blossom Spring!"

"Indeed, indeed..."

Zuo Youxian looked at the scenery in front of him, especially the stream in front of them, and said in admiration.

"Green turbulent moss, mandarin ducks whirling back. The long beam is like a rainbow, like a dragon... The place where the gods live, even the immortals in the sky can't match it!"

"Hahaha……"

Hearing Zuo Youxian's compliment, the old man laughed again with great satisfaction.

"Fellow Daoist Zuo praised you too much, please come with me."

Saying that, the old man took Zuo Youxian across the Hongqiao to the north side of the stream, Qiao Songxiu Huang was all around on the left and right, Gaomen Odan could be vaguely seen between the trees, and the terraces were repeated.

"Fellow Daoist Zuo, this is the old courtyard, please!"

The old man pushed open the door, took Zuo Youxian into the yard, and sat down in a small pavilion with curtains in the yard.Zuo Youxian looked around again, and saw that the eaves and windows were dotted with strange treasures, glittering in the sunlight, looking very gorgeous.

The old man clapped his hands lightly twice and let out a soft cry.

"Come on, have a drink!"

The next moment, two beautiful maids came over with wine jugs and glasses, and two plates of appetizers that Zuo Youxian had never seen before, and placed them in the booth.

"Friend Left..."

After the old man saw the food and wine put on the table, he casually picked up the wine glass and raised it to Zuo Youxian.

"Give me a glass of wine."

"Thank you, Lord God!"

After Zuo Youxian agreed, he quickly raised his wine glass to the old man, and drank it down in one gulp.

"Good wine!"

"..."

After persuading him for two glasses of wine, the old man finally got to the point.

"Fellow Daoist Zuo, this old man sees that you are also a virtuous person, what is the use of coming to my poor village?"

"It's true!"

After hearing the old man's words, Zuo Youxian put down the wine glass in his hand, after thinking about it, he said truthfully.

"Although Pindao became a monk and became a Taoist, the world of mortals has not been broken. Now, at the request of the general manager of the Jianghuai River and the Emperor Fugong Er of the Song Dynasty, he has served as the Minister of the Ministry of War of the Song Dynasty, the ambassador of the Southeast Road, and the governor of Yuezhou. This time, the poor Taoist came to find the god. , I also want to ask the gods to come out of the mountain to help Fugong defeat Li Tang and pacify the world."

"Hahaha……"

After hearing Zuo Youxian's words, the old man shook his head and laughed, and waved his hands again and again.

"I'm old and old, how can I help Duke Fu defeat Li Tang and bring peace to the world?"

"The god is too modest..."

After hearing the old man's refusal, Zuo Youxian immediately said earnestly again.

"When the great monk Zhiwei told me about the god, he said that the god is powerful, he can manipulate the world, move stars and change battles, and he is a first-class practitioner. As long as he has the help of the god, Fugong will definitely be able to defeat Li Tang. , when the time comes to advance, you can compete in the world, and when you retreat, you can calmly stand side by side with Li Tang."

"Little monk Zhiwei is too arrogant..."

The old man continued to wave his hands and declined.

"The old man is just an outsider, lingering on his last breath, spending the rest of his life, how can he have the ability to manipulate the world, change stars and change battles, this statement is too much, too much."

Seeing the old man's refusal again, Zuo Youxian stroked his beard with his hand, thought about what Monk Zhiwei said to him yesterday, then turned around and told the two Taoist boys.

"Come, bring the gift that Pindao prepared for the god."

"Yes!"

The two Taoist boys agreed, then walked into the pavilion, unloaded the panniers they were carrying, and placed them in the center of the pavilion.

"God Lord..."

Zuo Youxian bowed slightly to the old man, and said sincerely.

"This is a small gift prepared by Zuo for the god, it is not a respect, please accept it."

"You Daoist Zuo actually prepared a gift, how polite you are."

Although the old man said that he was too polite, he waved his hand casually without even looking at the gift.

"However, people who live in the mountains don't need any gifts. Fellow Daoist Zuo still..."

Before the old man finished speaking, Zuo Youxian had already reached out and lifted the cloth covering the basket, took out a jar, and placed it in front of the old man.

The eyes of the old man who didn't care about gifts at all suddenly lit up when he saw this jar.

This is a jar made of black pottery, and the top of the jar is sealed with yellow cloth, and a red talisman is drawn with cinnabar on the yellow cloth.

"What is sealed inside this is... the power of incense and fire?"

"Shenjun really has eyes like torches!"

Zuo Youxian showed his thumb in admiration, and continued.

"In this jar is a monastery's incense for one month, and there are twelve jars in this basket!"

"so……"

The old man looked eagerly at the two baskets on the ground.

"There is a two-year incense burner from a monastery here? It's too precious, you deserve it, you deserve it!"

"It's okay!"

Zuo Youxian lowered his voice, and continued.

"Pindao heard from Master Zhiwei that Shenjun is refining an earth-shattering magic weapon recently, which requires a lot of incense and vows, so as long as Shenjun agrees to Pindao's request, Pindao can agree to Shenjun, as long as Fugong defeats Li Tang and separates the kingdom In Jiangnan, the auxiliary guild personally brings people to the spring and autumn sacrifices to the gods every year, and it is the kind of big sacrifice that the entire Jiangnan must obey."

"His..."

After hearing Zuo Youxian's words, the old man took a deep breath, and a hesitant look flashed across his face.

"Even so, but..."

Seeing that the old man had already started to waver, Zuo Youxian immediately stepped up again.

"And as long as you are willing to go out of the mountain, the Lord Fu will immediately set up temples for the Lord in various places in the south of the Yangtze River, and offer sacrifices at four o'clock!"

After hearing this condition, the old man finally wavered.

"Since Fugong is so kind, I am really embarrassed, so I can only accept it with the cheek!"

"It should be, it should be..."

Zuo Youxian heaved a sigh of relief after seeing this powerful god, whom Monk Zhiwei said was powerful, agreed to help.

"Shenjun is willing to come out to help, and Fugong will definitely greet you. It's a trivial matter, and it's nothing to worry about."

Saying that, Zuo Youxian and the old man raised their wine glasses at the same time, and smiled at each other.

After drinking a few more rounds of wine, the atmosphere became more and more harmonious, so Zuo Youxian took the opportunity to make his own request.

"Shenjun, Zhang Shan'an, Daxingtai, Southwest Road, is currently confronting Zhou Faming in Wuchang. He wrote to the Fugong to ask for help, but Fugong's recent troops have already gone north to support Xu Yuanlang. He is really powerless. I don't know Shenjun. Can you help Zhang Shan'an defeat Zhou Faming?"

"Hehe... this matter is easy!"

The old man shook the sleeves made of Toba, and said indifferently.

"I have a disciple who lives in Wankou, and his name is Hou Yuan. He has the magic trick of the old man. He can change all kinds of things, command ghosts and ghosts, plants, trees, earth and rocks, and they can all be cavalry and armored soldiers. The old man will write a letter to you. You can go to Wankou is looking for him, and with his help, Zhou Faming will be defeated."

"what!"

After hearing the old man's words, Zuo Youxian felt a little dazed.

Did you send out a disciple after you tossed about for a long time?
"Fellow Daoist Zuo, it's not that I don't want to come forward in person..."

The old man seemed to see what Zuo Youxian was thinking, and continued.

"As you know, the old man is refining a magical weapon, and he can't be separated for the time being, but now that you have the incense and wish power brought by you, fellow Taoist, the old man estimates that the magic weapon will be completed within three months. At that time, the old man will definitely come to Danyang to meet Duke Fu."

After hearing the old man's words, Zuo Youxian could only nod helplessly in agreement.

"Then it's settled. Three months later, Pindao will be waiting for the god in Danyang."

　This story of the god and Hou Yuan comes from the "San Shui Xiao Du" written by Huangfu Mu of the Tang Dynasty.In the story, Hou Yuan was a character during the reign of Emperor Xizong Li Xuan of Tang Dynasty. After he learned magic, he wanted to rebel, but the god told him that you are now reciting words. If you want to rebel, you have to wait for your luck. It was done later, but Hou Yuan refused to listen. As a result, the rebellion failed and he was arrested. Then the god gave up Hou Yuan, and he was directly killed by the cavalry on the battlefield.
