Chapter 31: Senior Brother Takes You Up the Mountain

In the early morning of the empire, awakened by the first rooster crow, the streets began to appear with scattered pedestrians rushing to the market, and everything was so quiet and harmonious.

The imperial city of Dashang was sleepless all night, and the ministers of civil and military affairs rarely stayed up all night to talk about state affairs. If you only look from the outside of the main hall, people passing by will think that the war is approaching, and the time has come for the empire to change power and rise and fall.

But what are the ministers in the hall doing?

The hall was boiling, and the ministers of civil and military affairs were more energetic than the other, and they looked a little like people who had not slept all night.

Gao Zhan had already set up the banquet in the main hall, which was unthinkable in normal times, after all, this is the main hall of a country, which is so serious and solemn that it cannot be desecrated.

At this time, the hall was pushing the cup and changing the lamp, and the ground was full of messes, except for Gao Zhan Nan Ziyang who could still be calm, everyone else was excited.

It turned out that only an hour had passed from the time of the main hall to the time when it fell back to the old site of the main hall. After the main hall landed, many people in the hall quickly ran out and asked the guards outside the hall what they saw.

Because in their opinion, this must be Nan Ziyang's trick, it is an illusion, how can a magnificent and luxurious, imposing palace say that it will go to heaven and fall to the ground, and there is no trace of fracture, then there is only one explanation, then all the scenes just now are illusions, and they are all tricks that Nan Ziyang made the Tao and deceive people.

However, they received a reply that the Great Hall had indeed risen into the air, but it was suspended as far as the eye could see, and had not submerged into the clouds, and that the Great Hall had always exuded a peaceful light, as if it had been draped in a veil of sacredness.

At first, when I saw the main hall flying into the sky, the imperial city was in chaos. But after a while, the main hall stopped steadily in the air, and emitted a divine light, and the people of the entire imperial city and even the entire Shangqiu knew that this was the Taoist chief performing immortal methods, so they worshiped the main hall one after another.

An hour later, the hall slowly descended, staying in its original place without the slightest disobedience.

Before the guards outside the hall rushed into the main hall, someone in the hall had already rushed out, just in time to collide with them. But those high-spirited civil and military ministers on weekdays had no time to reprimand the guards of the day, and hurriedly asked what had just happened.

After getting a definite answer, the civil and military ministers who were originally in the main hall returned to the main hall one by one.

Then His Majesty the Emperor personally decreed that the gates of the palace should be closed, and that important matters concerning the state would be discussed, and that no one or others would be allowed to enter without permission, and those who violated the order would be exempted from being killed.

It wasn't until later that Gao Zhan actually passed the imperial dining room, and shared three meals with civil and military officials in the main hall, and even later supper.

Early the next morning, a decree came from the imperial city.

Dashang changed the yuan to Shenlong, and this year is the first year of Shenlong, which has the meaning of flying into the sky from now on.

All cities, towns and even slightly larger villages in the territory of Dashang must build Daomen, and the law of Daomen in Dashang must be implemented, and Daomen is the state religion.

The Great Shang National Teacher is Nanziyang, and the Nanting Temple is the Daomen Temple.

......

......

After a series of decrees were promulgated, the territory of the Great Shang Dynasty was boiling and rumors spread, but with the establishment of the Daomen and the compulsory implementation of the Great Shang Dynasty and the advancement of Huairou, the people gradually stabilized.

The whole country cultivates the Tao, and from then on, the great business is the Taoist country.

In the ninth year of Shenlong, Gao Zhanchuan was located in the crown prince Gaojin.

Ten years of Shenlong, the Tianqi Taoist who disappeared for ten years appeared in the Nanting Temple outside Shangqiu.

Emperor Taishang Gao Zhan entered the South Pavilion Temple, and then Gao Zhan and the poor Taoist disappeared and disappeared.

Gao Zhan finally finished the story, looked at the senior brother with excitement and sorrow, and said: "Fifty years, a full fifty years, I have been waiting here for fifty years, and finally when you come down the mountain, I thought I would never be able to see you in this life." ”

"Then why don't you go up the mountain to find Senior Brother, isn't it a waste of time to wait?" Ye Yichen asked with a puzzled expression.

"It's not that I don't want to take the initiative to find the immortal chief, it's that the poor Taoist who brought me over back then said that everything has to be fate, if you force it, then everything will be in vain after all. Gao Zhan recalled the past years, and sighed with emotion: "At first, I wasn't sure that you were the Dao Wuwei Immortal of Tianxuan, but I just said that I had a wish that had not been fulfilled, but now that it is confirmed, of course, I will tell it out." ”

"Is there anything else you haven't said?" Ye Yichen continued to ask.

"Yes, at that time, the Heavenly Poor Daoist still had something to say. He said to me at the time that if he was destined to see Dao Wuwei, the elder brother of Tianxuan, in this life, he would tell Dao Wuwei that his master's master owed him a Celestial Empire. ”

"Huh? What does that mean? Ye Yichen interrupted Gao Zhan's words, looked at Senior Brother with a face, and then continued to ask: "Fifty years ago, how can you still remember it, lie to people." ”

"How dare the little old man deceive the immortal masters, after the Dao Commander said this, he threw me to this town, and he disappeared himself. At that time, I used a brocade scroll to write down everything that the Taoist chief had told me, and I would take it out every once in a while to look at it, so how could I forget it. ”

Senior Brother looked at Su Yun quietly from the corner of his eye.

Su Yun pursed his lips and said to Gao Zhan: "You old man, a good emperor is not appropriate, follow a bull-nosed old man to fool around, do you know how far this is from your palace?"

"What this immortal master taught is that the old man is bitter in his heart, if he can't see Jin Niang again, there is really no taste in life. It's a pity that when I came to the year of entering the earth, I could see the immortal chief, and it seems that this god still doesn't fulfill people's wishes. Gao Zhan said with a handful of snot and tears, and then looked at the senior brother with excitement, half sadness, and a little hope.

"In this case, the Heavenly Poor Daoist brought you here, and you took the empire as a shackle, why didn't you think about going to Tianxuan at that time and becoming a disciple of Tianxuan, maybe you can meet Senior Brother very fatefully there, although I haven't seen Senior Brother many times in so many years. Ye Yichen said.

"This, I also thought about it, but after several immortal masters who came down from Tianxuan saw me, they all shook their heads and said, I have no chance with cultivators in this life, so I didn't take me to Tianxuan, how can we ordinary people go to Tianxuan by ourselves, we can only wait here. ”

"Every time I am lucky enough to meet an immortal master from Tianxuan, I will ask when the immortal chief of Wuwei will come down the mountain, and those immortal masters all say that they don't know, and they all say that the senior brother of Tianxuanzong, Shenlong, sees the head and does not see the tail, but as long as there is a need, he will always appear. ”

"If I can meet the immortal chief this time, the immortal chief must show me a clear way. Gao Zhan was almost about to hug his senior brother's thighs, with a miserable howl, and almost fainted when he was excited.

"I said, Senior Brother Tianxuan, do you have a score or not, can you help this old guy, my ears are annoyed when he cries. Su Yun said inappropriately at this time, looking a little frivolous, but he asked the senior brother a little playfully.

"Senior brother, regarding the afterlife, inaction is indeed powerless. Dao Wuwei said to Su Yun with some regret: "This old man's affairs, Wuwei can only point out one or two, but whether you can see Jin Niang again, everything only depends on the will of God." ”

"But I'm a dying person, and I can't see this providence, hey..." Gao Zhan was disheartened, and let out a long sigh, there were signs that the oil had run out and the lamp had dried up.

Indeed, I have been holding on to hope and waiting for fifty years, but in exchange for everything, everything is waiting to see how the providence is arranged, and the already strong spirit and spirit have completely collapsed.

"Wuwei, how is your master?" Su Yun asked suddenly.

"The Master is not in Heaven's will. The elder brother replied.

"Then none of this is providential. Su Yun said again.

Ye Yichen's head swayed from side to side, looking at the two of them in confusion.

"Thank you for my brother's advice, Wuwei understands. Dao Wuwei saluted Su Yun, then looked at the other side of the lake, and muttered to himself: "Master, the disciple understands your hard work back then. ”

"Then, Senior Brother will take you up the mountain, give you a lifetime, and wait for Jin Niang. After Su Yun saw the state of Senior Brother, he smiled and said to Gao Zhan, "Remember to call me Senior Brother in the future." ”
