Chapter 16
After entering the other garden, there were people guiding them all the way, passing through several houses, and finally a few people finally placed Li Bai in a secluded side house. This room is not big, and it is not gorgeous and exquisite compared to other houses, it should be a room that is rarely used on weekdays, and it is now used to hide Li Bai. The two Li Tianran brothers didn't have time to take care of it, until they arranged for Li Bai to sleep, and then they turned around and stepped forward to thank them.
The two brothers bowed down and said, "Lord Xie An's kindness, he will do his best to repay it one day!" ”
Seeing this, An Qingxu hurriedly got up and helped the two of them up, and said slowly: "Don't be polite to the two, your Ah Lang is a famous chivalrous warrior in the world, and you should help each other in trouble today, you don't have to be so polite." As he spoke, he took out a small medicine bottle from his bosom and continued: "This is a blood-invigorating pill, which has a miraculous effect on heart and vein damage, so let him take it as soon as possible." ”
Li Tianran took the medicine, he was very happy in his heart, and bowed down again and said, "Thank you for your kindness!" With that, he turned around and returned to the bed, and let Li Bai take the medicine.
An Qingxu approached the bed, glanced at Li Bai, and then said in a low voice: "Let's let him rest well, I see that the three of you are also injured, so let's take the time to rest for a while, Li Taibai doesn't have to worry about it here, I will arrange someone to serve, once I wake up, I will definitely send someone to tell you!" ”
After An Qingxu's reminder, Li Tianran realized that he hadn't closed his eyes for a long time, Ah Lang had already landed, and a boulder in his heart could be regarded as unloaded, and he suddenly felt collapsed at this moment, almost collapsed to the ground, he glanced at Li Boyu, he was no better, if it wasn't for the emergency, I'm afraid he would have been unable to support it for a long time! So Li Tianran arched his hand and said, "Then there is Lord Lao'an." The three of them were taken to two rooms, Li Tianran and Li Boyu took some medicine to stop bleeding and remove blood stasis, they were really tired, and they were already asleep in a moment!
In the blink of an eye, it was already three o'clock in the Shen hour, and in the main hall of Huaqing Palace, the saint looked at Gao Lishi at the step with cold eyes, and the dissatisfaction in his heart was already overflowing! For many years, none of the people Gao Lishi was responsible for arresting have been able to escape, but today, within the high walls of this palace, Li Bai actually ran away with a few prisoners! Gao Lishi led people to search for a few hours and found nothing, and what is even more infuriating is that the number one master around the dignified son of heaven will also be held hostage, this matter is really a loss of royal face! When Colliers returned to his life, the more he listened, the more annoyed he became, but just as he was about to have a seizure, the old voice sounded outside the house: "Saint! The old man came to ask for sin! ”
When the saint heard the voice, he naturally looked up, and it was the national teacher who stood outside the door of the main hall, and the national teacher slowly entered the main hall while speaking, and when he stood up, he immediately bowed down and said: "The old Taoist guard is not good, please condemn the saint!" ”
The national teacher is responsible for guarding Li Tianran and others, it stands to reason that everyone escaped at this time, and the responsibility of the national teacher is not light, but now that the dragon is about to appear, this matter still needs to rely on the national teacher, how can the saint really condemn him? The saint glanced around at the national teacher and Gao Lishi, forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, and slowly spoke: "That's it, there are still important things to prepare in the near future, these people will be arrested on the list, if the thief resists, there is no need to ask for a play, kill immediately!" ”
"Whoa!" The national teacher and Gao Lishi responded in unison.
The national teacher slowly straightened up and said: "Qi Sheng, the place of canonization has been roughly prepared, Lao Dao is courageous, and please ask the saint to get up and go to see it, if there is anything that needs to be improved, Lao Dao will send someone to do it as soon as possible!" ”
When the sage heard this, his anger turned into joy, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly: "It is worthy of being a national teacher, and he is capable of doing things, so I will set off and look at it!" With that, he slapped the dragon chair and immediately stood up. At the same time, the eunuch outside the palace suddenly shouted loudly: "The concubine has arrived!" Ask to enter the temple! ”
During the conversation, the concubine Niangniang was already uninvited, and began to slowly enter the hall, everyone looked up, and it turned out that the person who entered the hall was the first stunning person in the world - Yang Yuhuan! At this time, Yang Yuhuan was not wearing a gorgeous dress, but only wore a light gray robe, and did not wear more ornaments, but even so, it was difficult to hide his amazing appearance! Yang Yuhuan is thirty and six this year, but he still has a plump body, a white face like fat, and his facial features are delicate just right, no wonder even Li Bai wrote down when he first saw him, "The clouds want to dress and the flowers want to look, and the spring breeze blows Revlon." The Psalms.
Yang Yuhuan slowly walked to His Royal Highness, and said in a coquettish voice: "The concubine has come to meet the saint!" ”
The sage laughed when he heard this: "Taizhen, why are you here?" Is there anything you want to tell me? ”
Yang Yuhuan glanced at the national teacher beside him with a sideways face, and continued to speak: "The concubine heard that the national teacher has finished arranging the holy hall, so she came to meet the saint, hoping that the saint can bring the concubine to watch it together, so that you can see the majesty of the saint in advance!" ”
The saint was stunned for a moment, and smiled slowly: "Taizhen, your news is fast enough!" I have just learned that you have arrived! It's okay, I'll go with you, or I can take a peek or two in advance. With that, he slowly walked down His Royal Highness, ready to go, Yang Yuhuan saw this and hurriedly stepped forward and raised his hand to support the saint.
The saint and his entourage slowly walked in the direction of the Holy Soup Palace, and after a while, they arrived at the main hall of the Holy Soup Palace, and the national teacher spoke: "Enlighten the saint, then the saint will first burn incense and bathe here, change his clothes and hats, wash the worldly world, and then enter the temple and wait for Ying Long to come to the world!" ”
The sage smiled: "This is very good, the national teacher is really thoughtful!" The national teacher smiled without saying a word, and continued to raise his hand, signaling the saint to continue walking. Passed through the Holy Soup Palace, came to the backyard, here is just an ordinary palace wall, because the palace wall is behind a cliff, ordinary people will never climb here, so the palace wall is not high, but at this time there are three more wooden doors on the wall out of thin air, from the perspective of the old and new, these three wooden doors should be built recently. Seeing this, the sage couldn't help but be stunned, and muttered: "The national teacher built three gates here, and he didn't even know about it, could it be that there is another mystery behind these three gates?" As far as I know, behind this holy soup palace is a towering cliff. ”
The national teacher smiled without saying a word, slowly walked to the three wooden doors, and pushed them open one by one, and after the three doors were all opened, everyone was immediately shocked by the scene in front of them! Looking out from the door, there is actually a Taiji pagoda built about ten zhang away! The reason why it is called Taiji Pagoda is because this tower is symmetrical left and right, it is black and white, and it looks like the Taoist Taiji pattern from afar! At this time, the clouds and mist are shrouded, as if in a fairyland.
The saint was frightened and hurriedly walked to the door, and everyone followed, but as soon as he reached the door, the saint hurriedly took two steps back. Beyond the palace walls of the Holy Soup Palace is a steep cliff that is more than 100 zhang deep, and it is bottomless at a glance. And that Taiji tower was actually built on the top of another steep peak of more than ten zhang according to this, between the two cliffs are connected with a huge copper chain, and three passages are laid on the copper chain, each one zhang is wide, there are copper chains on both sides to protect, the clouds and mist are slowly drifting on the copper chain bridge at this time, more like the fairy road to the sky.
The saint was still amazed, and the national teacher had already walked to his side, bowed down and said: "Enlighten the saint, this middle door is the Shinto, the old way is paved with the best rosewood, and the dragon is a wood, so you should take this way; On the left, there is the Jun Dao, the old Taoist ordered people to pave it with white marble, and the sage took this as the way; On the right, there is humanity, forged from bronze, and the princes and ministers of the palace all walk this way! ”
As soon as the national teacher finished speaking, the sage leaned out again, looked out of the door, and everything was as the national teacher said, and he couldn't help but praise: "The national teacher's design is mysterious, and I am very pleased, so I will cross this bridge with you, and go to the opposite side to see." "Then I want to move forward.
"Sage and slow!" Colliers eagerly shouted to stop him.
Hearing this, the sage turned around, looked at Colliers, and asked, "What is your intention?" Why... Blocking my way? ”
Gao Lishi stepped forward, glanced sideways at the national teacher, and continued to speak: "Qiqi sage, there is an abyss under this bridge, this bridge has just been laid, and the old minister is worried... I'm afraid it's not safe! Is it possible for the old minister to cross the bridge first to check, and then turn back to the saint to protect the past? ”
Without waiting for the sage to speak, the national teacher immediately said coldly: "I'm afraid that Gonggong Gao is too worried, is it possible that he can't still believe in the old way?" Besides, this ... How can you and I trample on the way of kings? ”
When Gao Lishi heard this, he was about to fight back, but the saint hurriedly waved his hand and answered: "Gao Gonggong is too worried, I... Trustworthy National Teacher! If you even have scruples about this bridge, how can you talk about canonization? With that, he turned around and prepared to move on.
"Saint!" Gao Lishi shouted anxiously, but the saint turned a deaf ear at the moment and stepped onto the white jade monarch road. Gao Lishi couldn't help but gasp, secretly glanced at the national teacher, held his breath, and was always ready to rush forward.
At this time, there was a wind in the mountains, and the bridge body was still slightly shaking when the saint stepped on the bridge, but he could adapt to it after walking a few steps, and the bridge body was basically stable, but Gao Lishi was still not at ease, and hurriedly followed the humane, following behind the saint. The national teacher couldn't help but sneer, and followed behind Gao Lishi with Yang Yuhuan and the accompanying guards.
The sage walked to the middle of the bridge, and suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed: "The scenery here is no different from the realm of the gods, and I am very happy!" After saying that, he lowered his head and continued to move forward, and after a while, he finally walked through this section of the Heavenly Dao in the clouds, and the saint was excited, but Gao Lishi on the side had already oozed a cold sweat from his back because of nervousness! At this moment, the people who were at the end of the line basically crossed the bridge! Although this bridge is magnificent, it is indeed steep, and even Yang Yuhuan is inevitably a little discolored.
The sage looked around, and the cliff was not too big, and there was nothing else except the Taiji Pagoda in front of him. But the cliff itself was strangely born, more like it grew out of thin air from the cliff, it was simply a miracle of heaven and earth, and this scene couldn't help but surprise him secretly again.
