Chapter 5
On the sheep intestine path of Yunmeng Mountain, Wang Cuo and his wife, Yahuan and the three of them walked slowly back and forth.
The bright sunshine, the fresh air, the fragrance of flowers and plants, the competition of birds, and the green vision, the three of them were excited.
"The master knows a lot, tell Mrs. Hededi, what is the difference between this Yan Kingdom and our Wei Kingdom?" Dedi gently supported his wife with one hand and carried a basket with the other, his face full of excitement.
"This Yan country is also a place in our Great Zhou. After King Wu destroyed the unification of Shang, he divided the places to the meritorious generals and the children and grandchildren of the clan. After it was given to the surname Ji Zhaogong, at that time, there was a considerable tribe in this area that took the swallow as a totem, and used it as a family emblem and a clan name when they went to war, and finally became the name of the country. Our Wei State was originally a part of the Jin Kingdom, and they were all descendants of King Wu. Later, the doctors of the Jin Kingdom fought for power and profit, and they mobilized their troops, so they divided the Jin Kingdom into the current Wei, Zhao, and Han countries. ”
"These countries are at war every day, why don't the emperor of the Great Zhou care about it!"
Wang Cuo sighed. "Since the establishment of the Zhou Dynasty, it can be said that the world is peaceful, and the song and dance are peaceful. The people also lived and worked in peace and contentment, and had plenty of food and clothing. But when it came to the time of the Youwang, he was extravagant, and the government was corrupt. Subsequently, the feudal states expanded day by day, and for hundreds of years, who still took the Great Zhou Tianzi seriously and put it on his own! ”
"Sir! Don't talk about these sad things anymore, look where you see? Madame reminded. How do I feel directionless! ”
Sure enough, everyone only talked and forgot where they had turned. Looking back, the weeds that are one person tall and the same big trees obscure everything.
"Let's go, go to the right!" Wang Cuo pointed to the mountain rock on the right. "There the trees are dark green, and there must be streams, and the rocks are wide and sunny."
The three of them supported each other, walked up to the stone platform, and looked in front of them again, they were all shocked.
The stone platform is several zhang wide, and there is a waterfall from the top of the mountain stone, and the water splashes and flutters, drifting down and falling into the valley. The valley is meandering, the lake is dotted, the mountains on both sides are high and the rocks are dangerous, the trees are distinct, and the flowers and birds are refreshing.
"Great place! It's like a fairyland on earth, and there is still this kind of beauty in this Yunmeng Mountain! Wang Cuo looked at everything excitedly.
Madame, Dedi was also happy to look at the scenery here, and went to see the flying stream over there.
The three of them were excited and sighed for a long time before the lady said: "I think this place is so beautiful, it must be the place where the mountain god lives." Gain land! Hurry up and put the prepared incense and offerings on the table, and the master and I will sacrifice to the gods. ”
Dedi agreed, hurriedly arranged everything, and spread a cloth mat behind the incense.
Wang Cuo led his wife to wash her hands and face beside Feiliu, and dusted off her body, and then knelt there and lit sandalwood.
The two knelt silently, muttering in their mouths!
Seeing that the incense burned out, the two slowly got up.
Wang Cuo took a few more breaths of the fragrance of flowers before turning to his wife and saying, "If it weren't for Madame's body, I really want to stay here for two days!" The mountain is high and the road is far away, and I also worshiped the mountain god, so let's go back early! ”
"Good!" Madame answered, and as soon as she turned around, she covered her abdomen with both hands. "Why am I in so much pain!"
Dedi hurriedly helped his wife and let her sit down slowly.
"How does Madame feel? Is it due to the fatigue of going up the mountain? Wang Cuo looked at her anxiously.
"No, how do I feel that the baby in my womb is about to be born!"
"Ahh Wang Cuo was terrified. "This is not where the child was born! Madame, doesn't that feel right? He was afraid that his wife would feel wrong.
The lady was already lying down in abdominal pain, and she said with difficulty: "I really want to give birth!" ”
The king was in a hurry, and they searched east and west, hoping to find a place to shelter from the sun. But on this high stone platform, how can there be!
"I'll carry you to the woods under the stone platform!" Wang stooped down to hug his wife.
"It's too late!" The lady writhed from side to side, her face pale.
Wang Cuo couldn't take care of it much, so he had to squat down and untie his wife's underwear, after all, he knew medicine!
At this moment, the sound of countless cranes resounded through the valley. The three of them looked up and saw countless cranes flying in all directions. They gathered and hovered overhead, singing incessantly, covering the sky and avoiding the sun. For a moment, it was dark on the stone platform.
A baby's cry echoed through the valley, and cranes fluttered away.
The sun was shining again on the stone platform, and Wang Cuo had already held the born baby in his arms.
The baby's cry echoed through the valley continuously, forming a heavenly sound. Wang Cuo and his wife had smiles on their faces, and their hands were clasped together.
"My Wang family has a queen!" "My Wang family has a queen!" Wang Cuo shouted.
"Sir, ma'am! You see. "The bare rocks on the other side of the finger." It's like a word! ”
Wang Cuo turned around and looked carefully, and sure enough, he found two bare stones on the mountain peak. It looks like an old man looking at the mountain, and only by looking closely can you distinguish the two words.
"Tell me about it! What is the word? Madame looked at her husband, who wanted to speak and stopped, Cui urged.
"It seems to be the name of the place, the word 'Ghost Valley'." The king said slowly, he did not like the name of the place, and it did not attach itself to the beauty and atmosphere.
"Husband, this is providence, don't think about it!" Madame had seen what he meant.
When she reminded her, Wang Cuo immediately woke up, held the baby up, and said with a smile: "Let's call it Guigu!" As for the tuba—" He looked around, but heard Chang Ming. "Let's call Wang Cicada!"
Another loud cry echoed through the valley.
Wang Cuo and his wife have been immersed in the joy of Yunmeng Mountain's son these days, but they also have troubles. It's that the little ghost valley has been crying since birth, and it doesn't sleep like other babies.
The crying day and night made the Wang family retreat from joy, and they became worried and afraid. So, Wang Cuo searched all over Langzhong, but Langzhong shook his head helplessly after seeing it, which made Wang Cuo and his wife even more afraid, thinking, how can the child survive this auspicious future! Don't...
The king mistakenly thought about his dream, could it be an illusion? Just as he was worried about it, he saw Dedi leading an old man with crane hair and a childish face and fairy wind and fairy bones into the house.
Wang Cuo was startled, and then became excited, got up and clasped his fists to salute.
"Dare to ask your lord, no, no, dare to ask what the immortal family is called?"
The old man smiled and reported to himself. "What about the immortal family! Many years ago, he served as Ling Yin in Zhou Tianzi Hangu Pass, and he just called me Yin Xi. ”
"Don't dare, don't dare! Everyone calls you Yin Zi, and the younger king has seen Yin Zi by mistake! ”
Wang Cuo is also familiar with the history of the Zhou Dynasty, the Hangu Pass in the early years of the Great Zhou Dynasty ordered Yin to privately release Li Er, who was the Son of Heaven, and dismissed the soldiers who were unwilling to tear up all day long, while he stayed away from the world and followed Lao Tzu's cultivation path. Today, it seems that it is well deserved. The contemporaries of the times, one by one, have become ancient, but he is still alive, is it true that he has become a living immortal because of the cultivation of the Great Dao.
Yin Zi saw that Wang was wrong, and said with a smile: "Yin Xi learned the Tao with his teacher, and then cultivated himself in Zhongnan Mountain, was quiet and did nothing, and lived a few more years." I happened to be traveling here today, and when I saw something going on in the house, I wondered if I could help one or two. ”
Wang Cuo hurriedly gave up his hands again and let the tea sit down.
"You are not a hunter and fisherman, and your accent is different from that of the locals, how did you get here?" Yin Zi asked while drinking tea.
The king's face was ashamed. "I can't hide it, I was originally a doctor of Wei, and the king of Wei and his uncle Xiangguo were afraid that the general Wu Qi would support the army and respect himself, so he threatened me with his life to frame Wu Qi for not being subordinate. Because I was greedy for wealth and wealth, I participated in Wu Qi in the royal court. I thought that the king of Wei was just collecting his military power, but how did he know that he and his uncle were going to kill him. I couldn't bear to do this, so I secretly reported the news to Wu Qi, who had returned to the national capital from the front. As a result, although Wu Qi fled from Wei, more than a dozen members of his family were beheaded. The uncle knew that I had done it, so he killed two birds with one stone in the royal court for framing me for the crime of being loyal and good. When my whole house was raided, my wife and I happened to be outside, and we escaped this catastrophe and were chased all the way to this place. Alas! Wang Cuo let out a long sigh.
Yin Zi is still as calm as ever. "The Great Dao is silent, but it gives birth to all things in heaven and earth. All things follow the Tao of the beginning and the end, and they are born and breathed, and they continue to be continued. People should also learn from nature and not do anything wrong. As the Taoist sage said, man is the law of the earth, the earth is the law of the sky, the heaven is the law, and the Tao is the nature. But now this is not the case today, each candidate for their own fame and fortune, so that the world is in chaos, killing continues, and there is no humanity for a long time. You dwell in it, but you are also an unrighteous person. After Yin Zi finished speaking, he pointed to the inner room. Let's talk about the crying of babies! ”
Wang Cuo told himself about death, Lao Tzu dreamed, Yunmengshan gave birth, and the baby cried non-stop. "When Yin Zi arrives today, Wang Cuo will know that the little ghost valley has been saved!"
Yin Zi smiled. "The first teacher trusts the dream, that is, the fixed number! If you don't leak the opportunity, you can be full-fledged, and I hope you keep your mouth shut! ”
"The king mistakenly remembered Yin Zi's words!"
"Then please let out the lady and the child!"
Sure enough, the infant Guigu closed his eyes and cried, how did the lady caress it. Love doesn't stop.
Yin Zi got up and approached Mrs. Wang, put his hand on the top of Guiguzi's head, closed his eyes, and silently recited the words in his mouth.
After a while, the little ghost Gu Jing stopped crying, stretched out his hooves and legs, and was so active.
The couple thanked them again and again, and told Yahuan to prepare the meal quickly.
While Yin Zi and Wang Cuo were eating, the lady walked out of the back room with the child in her arms.
"Sir, Little Ghost Valley has never eaten a mouthful of milk and water since he was born, and although he is alive and kicking now, he still doesn't eat milk and 1 water."
Yin Zi smiled. "Put the child in bed."
He took out the two books "Tao Jing" and "Tao Jing" left by his husband from his bag and put them in Xiao Guigu's hand.
But seeing that Xiao Guigu grabbed the book with both hands, he muttered words that he couldn't understand.
The husband and wife looked at Yin Zi blankly.
"He's talking about killing soldiers, and this time he's hungry!" Yin Zi nodded.
Mrs. Wang picked it up again, and Xiao Guigu kept arching her mother's breast room with her head.
Mrs. hurriedly went back to the house to milk him, and the little ghost valley greedily ate milk and water, and Mrs. Xide Wang told Yin Zi and her husband outside the house loudly in the house.
Wang Cuo saw Yin Zi's immortal dao and sighed, he hesitated again and again, but still said boldly: "I want to entrust the child to you." ”
Yin Zi shook his head and said: "The child is still young, first by your side, and I will be the professor in ten years." When he is sensible, you can teach some literacy and calligraphy. ”
Wang Cuo thought about it, and since Yin Zi had already agreed, he had no choice but to do so, so he said: "I want to stay with Yin Zi for one night and listen to the reason of the Great Dao Epiphany, I don't know if Yin Zi can stay?" ”
"The idle cloud and wild stork are not used to being at home. As for the principle of epiphany, it is not a verbal expression, and the beauty is not to be said. You have already lived here, let go of fame and give up greed, wouldn't it be natural for you to follow the law? The Tao also slowly realized, how can he covet the opportunity of epiphany again! ”
"The king is ashamed! What Yin Zi ordered, I should keep in mind! The king knew that it was difficult to keep him, and watched Yizi go away.
