"This seed is crystal clear, like a pearl, and the old man who sees it is reluctant to eat it." Lord Ning sighed.

Everyone nodded, the seed was indeed like an agate, attracting people's eyes and making people reluctant to taste it.

Qiaozhen let a few people taste it, the pomegranate is very sweet, put the seed into the mouth and bite, a stream of sweet juice into the throat, like a sweet spring.

"Not bad." Several people nodded in approval.

"It's a pity that such a good thing can't be circulated, and if it enters the capital, it's a rarity. I'm scared to scramble. Lord Ning's expression was full of pity.

Qiao Zhen smiled and said: "This is also a matter of no way, in fact, it is not circulating, every place has the characteristics of that place, people can only be considered to have really come to that place if they have eaten and seen it, and it will be worth the trip, otherwise the capital has everything, and it is not rare." ”

"That's what you said." Lord Ning nodded, he didn't expect Qiao Zhen to have this opinion.

"Speaking of this pomegranate, it has another story, I don't know if my father and uncle are interested in hearing it." Qiaozhen remembered the legend of the pomegranate.

"Oh? Let's hear it. Zhen Guogong was the first to be curious, Lord Ning also nodded, Chen Xuanyu sat inside and looked at Qiao Zhen, and his eyes kept showing love.

"Legend has it that in a certain dynasty, there was an official named Zhang Qian, and the emperor sent him to other countries. Zhang Qian was ordered to leave the capital, and along the way, he slept in the open, trekked through mountains and rivers, and experienced the hardships of cold, heat, hunger and thirst.

The more he went west, the more difficult and dangerous the road became, and coupled with the fact that he was not accustomed to the water and soil, Zhang Qian and his party were full of stomach and did not want to eat; The false fire rises. With sores on his mouth and tongue, Zhang Qian was helpless, but he couldn't be disrespectful after receiving an errand. Can only persevere.

On this day, Zhang Qian and his entourage came to the foot of Kunlun Mountain. They were hungry and tired at this time, and they couldn't walk anymore, so Zhang Qian had to give orders to find a leeward place to rest.

Everyone rested, but Zhang Qian didn't, because Zhang Qian had a problem, he never stopped everywhere he went. It's all here and there; Ask the elderly, and the young. The old people talked, learned about the customs and habits of various places, and gained knowledge.

At this time, Zhang Qian was the same as before, he endured hunger and illness. Walk alone along a mountain road. After turning a few corners. He faintly heard someone talking in the distance.

He wondered, how could anyone speak in such a remote place? He couldn't help but be curious, and followed the sound as he looked at it and walked with all his strength.

After walking for a while, the sound was gone, and when he looked up suspiciously, he saw a boxy stone on the side of the road.

Zhang Qian felt strange, how could there be such a stone here? And why is there no sound he heard?

Zhang Qian walked around the stone and began to look. On the west-facing side, there are three big characters written "Tongtian Road".

Seeing these three big characters, Zhang Qian was shocked. The road to heaven, is that the way to heaven? He hesitated, should he move forward, or turn back? He couldn't make up his mind.

Just as he was pondering, there was another "giggling" laugh in front of him, and the sound sounded like a woman's voice.

Zhang Qian made up his mind that he wanted to figure out where the road leads, and he walked westward again.

He had only just taken three steps when a strong wind suddenly blew up, and the wind was so strong that it shook the ground.

Zhang Qian was scared, he quickly closed his eyes, didn't dare to move, and didn't dare to peek.

After the wind, Zhang Qian dared to open his eyes, and when he saw it, all around him had become a straight and steep stone wall, enclosing him inside, looking up at a height of more than ten zhang, he seemed to have fallen into a well. He's like that, he doesn't know how he got in, he can't figure it out.

Zhang Qian wanted to go out, but it was impossible. So high, he can't fly, how can he get out?

At this moment, there was a quarrel between a man and a woman above.

Zhang Qian listened carefully, and heard a crisp female voice say: "The queen mother ordered me to lead him to heaven, why did you stop him?" ”

Zhang Qian was stunned, Queen Mother? Heaven? Is this a myth?

Then he heard an urn-like male voice say, "I'm afraid that you, the fairy girl Sifan, want to marry!" Don't use the Queen Mother as an excuse, be careful that I go to the Jade Emperor to denounce you. Then there was a burst of laughter, and there was silence again.

Ho, it turned out to be a heavenly immortal. Zhang Qian was surprised, was the person they were talking about himself? He wasn't sure.

Just when Zhang Qian was at a loss, a white silk belt fell.

Zhang Qian was overjoyed when he saw Bai Aya, and knew that someone was going to rescue him, so he hurriedly went up and grabbed Bai Aya's belt, only to feel that his body was light, and he floated up with it.

In the blink of an eye, Zhang Qian came out of the "stone well" and hung in the air. It turned out that this white silk belt was the belt of a fairy girl, and she rescued Zhang Qian.

Zhang Qian couldn't be surprised, but he was in mid-air, he dragged the white silk belt and flew away with the fairy girl to the west.

After a while, the tense white ribbon suddenly loosened, the fairy girl disappeared, and Zhang Qian fell down.

After a pause, Zhang Qian stabilized his mind and began to look up, in front of him is a stone archway, and the archway is carved with four big characters of "West Tianyao Pool".

Zhang Qian opened his mouth in shock, he couldn't have imagined that he, a mortal, would come to fairyland. What a blessing that must be.

He strengthened his courage, walked through the archway, looked in, and saw that there was a green tree and red flowers, and the water and grass were green everywhere. It's a wonderland. Zhang Qian felt relaxed, he got rid of his nervousness, became relaxed, put his hands behind his back, walked slowly and leisurely, and looked around.

Next to a pavilion made of vermilion and jade, he saw a tree with lush foliage, and saw red flowers on it, and fruits the size of fists hung on it.

Zhang Qian paused and took a closer look at the fruit tree. He had traveled many places, and had never seen such fruit. He was curious, what kind of fruit was this? Zhang Qian wanted to understand, he saw that there was no movement around, so he carefully reached out and picked one.

But how to eat it? After pondering for a moment, he used his fingernails to pick open the crust and peel it off, revealing that there were layers of pearl and agate-like seeds inside.

Zhang Qian felt incredible in his heart, he carefully broke a seed, put it in his mouth boldly, and when he bit it gently, the sweet juice overflowed. He broke a few more and threw them into his mouth. The seeds are sweet and sour, and the tulips are delicious. The seeds were delicious, and he broke his palm, put it in his mouth, and chewed it with relish. After eating a few bites of seeds, I immediately felt that my mouth and tongue were moist, and the fullness of my stomach was gone, and my heart was very refreshed.

Zhang Qian felt very satisfied, he thought: I don't know what kind of rare kiwifruit this is, it seems to be able to clear away heat and generate food. I simply secretly picked a few and ate them on the way, and left the seeds to take back for the people to plant. This is also for the benefit of the people.

He thought of doing it, and stood on tiptoe to pick the fruit, but he had just reached out and touched a large fruit, when suddenly there was a shout: "Who is so bold as to dare to steal the Queen Mother's pomegranate!" With the sound of reprimands, the fairy girl who brought Zhang Qian to the sky came.

Without waiting for the fairy aunt to speak again, Zhang Qian hurriedly made a salute and sent him to the envoy, there were many hardships on the road, and now he was not accustomed to the water and soil, his abdomen was full, and his mouth and tongue were sores.

When the fairy girl heard this, she shook her head, and even said that she was wrong. Then tell Zhang Qian the reason.

It turned out that the queen mother saw Zhang Qian's long journey in the sky and the difficulty of walking, and she felt pity, so she ordered the fairy aunt to lead Zhang Qian to heaven. I want to give him some peaches, pears, and dates to eat on the road. So that Zhang Qian doesn't work so hard, but there is only one pomegranate in the sky, and the fruit is not enough for the Jade Emperor to eat, and there is no will, so no one dares to pick one privately. This is a felony, and she can't be a little fairy girl.

After listening to the words of the fairy aunt, Zhang Qian said gratefully: "Thank you for the Queen Mother's kindness." It's just that peaches, pears and apricots are everywhere in the world, and no one is rare. There are no pomegranates in the world, if you can give me one to take back and let the people plant it, it is also a good thing for the Queen Mother to do for the people. ”

The fairy aunt was moved by Zhang Qian's words, so she picked one and handed it to Zhang Qian, telling him to go to the archway of "Xitian Yao Pond" and send him to the sky after a while.

Zhang Qian took the pomegranate into his arms and went back the same way. And when the fairy girl was about to pick up the pomegranate skin under the pomegranate tree, there was a sheng sound, and the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother came.

The Jade Emperor asked the Queen Mother: "I heard that there is an immortal girl who wants to go down to find Zhang Qian?" He had obviously listened to the words of the man who had the voice of the urn in the lead.

When the Queen Mother heard this, she hurriedly explained, "I sent the fairy girl. Zhang Qian went to other countries, and the journey was hard, but I asked him to give him some peaches and plums to quench his thirst on the way. ”

The Jade Emperor didn't ask any more questions, but just asked the Queen Mother to take care of the world's affairs. After speaking, the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother came to the pomegranate tree.

The Jade Emperor saw a few pomegranate skins on the ground and asked Xian Gu who had touched the pomegranate? The fairy girl knew that she couldn't hide it, so she told Zhang Qian about picking pomegranates and her sending pomegranates.

The Jade Emperor was furious when he heard this. felt that Zhang Qian didn't take the people in the sky too seriously, so he ordered the fairy aunt to recover the pomegranate, and if he couldn't recover it, he would be punished heavily.

After hearing this, the fairy girl hurriedly came to the "West Tianyao Pond" archway. found Zhang Qian, and she told Zhang Qian that the Jade Emperor wanted to recover the pomegranate.

Zhang Qian asked the fairy aunt what to do? The fairy aunt thought for a moment and told him not to be afraid, just leave quickly.

Zhang Qian followed the fairy girl's instructions and tightly grabbed her white silk belt. The fairy girl jumped into the misty clouds. Zhang Qian hurriedly covered his eyes, he felt his body float, and the sound of "whirring" sounded in his ears.

The god who quarreled with the fairy Gu on the stone well saw that the fairy girl sent Zhang Qian down to the sky, and hurriedly reported it to the Jade Emperor. The Jade Emperor was furious. Refusing to listen to the Queen Mother's dissuasion, the god of heaven shot the white silk belt with an arrow.

The white ribbon in Zhang Qian's hand suddenly loosened, and his body spun in the air. Zhang Qian was frightened, he opened his eyes and saw that the white silk belt was broken, Zhang Qian panicked, what should I do? If you fall, you will be crushed. (To be continued......)
