Chapter 70: Sealing Zen

Today, August 14th, it is a sunny day, the sky is cloudless, and all this seems very peaceful and easy-going.

The army that entered Mount Tai to seal Zen in the east has come to the west side of Mount Tai, and when you look up, you can already faintly see Mount Tai.

I saw Mount Tai towering into the clouds, and the mountainside was covered with clouds and mist, just like a fairyland.

By this time, it was noon, and I motioned for the army to halt its advance.

Huotoujun immediately began to bury the pot and cook, and Gao Lishi also helped Tang Xuanzong out of the dragon chariot.

I hurriedly turned over and dismounted, came to Tang Xuanzong's side, and saluted Tang Xuanzong.

Tang Xuanzong: Jiang Aiqing, no courtesy.

Me: Your Majesty, please look at the Emperor, Mount Tai is right in front of you.

After that, I pointed to Mount Tai with my hand and motioned for Tang Xuanzong to look there.

Tang Xuanzong looked up at Mount Tai, looked very happy, and said: Mount Tai is the best in the world, and it really deserves its name.

Me: Mount Tai is the only one of the five mountains, and the holy monarchs since ancient times have to travel thousands of miles to come to Mount Tai to seal Zen!

Tang Xuanzong: Jiang Aiqing, that's a good point.

Me: Thank you for the compliment.

The army had eaten lunch and planned to continue its march.

Suddenly, the originally clear sky suddenly became cloudy, and the wind began to blow violently, and the people and animals could not move forward. Where can the flags in the hands of the soldiers still be held, all of them are blown into the air by the strong wind, and those who are slightly thinner are also in danger of being blown into the air.

As soon as I saw that the situation was extremely urgent, I immediately turned over and dismounted, came to the side of the dragon chariot, and said loudly: Your Majesty, the weather has changed abruptly, please let the emperor get off the dragon chariot first.

When Tang Xuanzong heard what I said, he quickly walked out of the dragon chariot, and I immediately stepped forward to support Tang Xuanzong.

Tang Xuanzong: Jiang Aiqing, what's going on?

As soon as I heard Tang Xuanzong's words, I thought: Mount Tai is in Shandong, and Shandong is also a province near the sea, and it is very likely that a typhoon is coming this season.

However, after thinking about it carefully, I feel that even if a typhoon comes, there is no reason to be able to blow to Mount Tai.

I didn't dare to determine whether it was a typhoon or not, so I made up a reason and said: Qi Qi Emperor, the last general thought that it must be the Dragon King of the East China Sea who knew that the emperor was going to come to Mount Tai to seal the Zen, so he specially rushed to greet the emperor, so there was a strong wind.

As soon as Tang Xuanzong heard this, he said: What Jiang Aiqing said is very true, and he quickly ordered the soldiers to set up an altar, and I want to thank the Dragon King of the East China Sea.

Me: The last general will obey the order, Gonggong Gao, and support the emperor.

Gao Lishi: General Jiang can rest assured, the old slave will support the emperor even if he dies.

I saluted Tang Xuanzong, and then walked into the army.

Chen Xuanli and Ge Shuhan were both directing the soldiers, so that they would hold hands and gather together, so as not to be blown away by the strong wind.

Me: General Chen, the emperor has an order to tell the soldiers to set up an altar quickly, and the emperor wants to worship the Dragon King of the East China Sea.

Xuanli Chen: Obey.

After I finished passing the order, I also walked quickly to Tang Xuanzong's side, for fear that something would happen to him.

When I came to Tang Xuanzong's side, I said loudly: Your Majesty, the altar will be set up immediately.

Tang Xuanzong nodded at me and did not speak; Because, the wind is too strong, and it is very difficult to speak.

At this moment, a stronger wind blew, and the earth instantly flew sand and rocks, and some weak soldiers were also blown into the air because they did not grasp their companions.

Just between the lightning and flint, only a loud "pop" sound was heard, and Tang Xuanzong's dragon chariot was blown down by the strong wind, and the top of the dragon chariot was blown into the sky at once.

When Tang Xuanzong saw that his dragon chariot was destroyed, his face appeared with fear, and he said: Jiang Aiqing, my dragon chariot has been blown away, is this a bad omen?

As soon as I heard this, I thought to myself, "How do I know if this is a bad omen?" However, even if it is a bad omen, it cannot be said to be a bad omen, this is about to go to Mount Tai, how can you say unlucky words!

Me: Returning to the emperor, the last general thinks that this should also be a good omen from the Dragon King of the East China Sea. Your Majesty, you think, this Mount Tai mountain road is rugged, towering into the clouds, ordinary carriages will definitely not go up, the Dragon King of the East China Sea will definitely give the emperor a god to ride, help the emperor to climb Mount Tai.

When Tang Xuanzong heard me say this, his face slowly regained his calm, and he said: What Jiang Aiqing said is extremely true.

As soon as Tang Xuanzong's words fell, Chen Xuanli walked over and said: "Your Majesty, the altar has been set up, please go and worship."

Tang Xuanzong: Chen Aiqing, fortunately.

Chen Xuanli led the way in front, and Gao Lishi and I supported Tang Xuanzong and walked towards the altar.

When he came to the altar, Tang Xuanzong began to sacrifice.

No, Tang Xuanzong's three worships had just ended, the wind stopped instantly, the dark clouds immediately dispersed, and the sky became clear and sunny all of a sudden.

Tang Xuanzong looked very excited and said: Jiang Aiqing, you are right.

I was also full of smiles and said: Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the emperor, the emperor is really the king of the world, the east comes to Mount Tai to seal the Zen, and even the gods of the East China Sea have to come to greet the emperor.

When Tang Xuanzong heard my words, he was extremely excited, and said: Gather the soldiers and start driving at speed.

Me: I will obey the order.

I informed Chen Xuanli and Ge Shuhan, gathered the soldiers, and the army continued to march.

Tang Xuanzong's dragon chariot has been destroyed, so he can only ride a horse to move forward.

After trekking all the way, I came to the foot of Mount Tai, but I saw that the road to climb the mountain was winding and very steep, and the horses could not go up.

Me: Your Majesty, it seems that the whole army has to climb Mount Tai on foot.

Tang Xuanzong: Let's walk on foot, we have to go up in general!

Me: Yes.

All the personnel turned over and dismounted, intending to climb to the top of Mount Tai on foot.

Suddenly, there was a loud noise from the mountainside of Mount Tai, this sound resounded through the valley, shocking the world, crying ghosts and gods, and the frightened people present were all frightened, and their faces turned pale.

Me: Your Majesty, are you alright?

Tang Xuanzong: It's okay! Jiang Aiqing, what is the sound of this loud bang just now?

Me: Back to the emperor, it may be an animal sound.

It didn't take long for a giant beast to slowly walk down the rugged mountain road of Mount Tai.

Everyone present was very surprised, and they all looked dumbfounded.

When the beast approached, we saw that it was a huge mule.

I immediately began to travel in the wind, and flashed to the mule, but I saw that there was a white rope around the mule's neck, and I immediately took the white rope, not wanting the giant mule to be very well-behaved, and followed me directly.

Me: Your Majesty, this giant mule must have been given to the emperor by the gods of the East China Sea for mountaineering.

Tang Xuanzong: It's really providential!

Gao Lishi: Your Majesty, if you don't sit on it and try it first, if this giant mule runs wild, won't it hurt the emperor?

Tang Xuanzong laughed and said: I am the Ninety-Five, how can I be afraid of this giant mule.

Me: The emperor is blessed with great fortune, and nothing can hurt the emperor.

Tang Xuanzong walked over with a smile, and I helped Tang Xuanzong to board the giant mule.

No, Tang Xuanzong had just sat on the giant mule, and the giant mule walked to the top of Mount Tai.

I saw that the giant mule walked at a steady pace, walking on this rugged, winding mountain road, and did not shake at all.

I looked at this scene and thought: Tang Xuanzong is indeed not simple!

After climbing all the way, after a few hours, I finally came to the Grand View Peak.

At this time, it was getting late, and the moon rose into the sky, and although it was the fourteenth moon, it was already very bright and round.

In the light of the moon, I saw a person standing on a boulder, this person was wearing a Taoist robe, obviously a Taoist priest.

I think that when this Taoist priest came here at this time, he would know Tang Xuanzong.

I immediately started the wind speed, came to this person as quickly as possible, clasped my fists and saluted, and said: Junior Jiang Dazhi, I have seen my senior.

This Taoist laughed loudly, his voice was loud, resounding through the valley, and he said loudly: General Jiang, you don't have to be polite.

As soon as this person's voice fell, he flashed, and came to Tang Xuanzong's side and said: The mountain Taoist has seen the emperor.

As soon as I heard this Taoist call himself a mountain Taoist, I thought: Is this Taoist the one I have seen in Shaolin Temple, the famous mountain Taoist of Mount Tai Longquan Guanguan on the rivers and lakes.

Judging from his body just now, he is indeed a peerless master.

Tang Xuanzong was extremely excited when he saw this mountain Taoist and said: "Mountain Daoist brother, I never thought that I would be able to meet my old friend more than 20 years ago on the top of Mount Tai today, and I am very happy!"

Mountain Daoist: Thanks to the emperor's memory of the events of more than 20 years ago, the mountains are very pleased. The mountain has lived in seclusion in Mount Tai for decades, and when he learned that the emperor was going to come to seal the Zen, he specially came to watch the ceremony, and by the way, he sent the god of Benguan to ride the heavenly hoof to help the emperor climb the mountain.

As soon as I heard the words of the mountain chief, I thought to myself: This mountain leader has such a divine ride, it is really extraordinary!

Tang Xuanzong: I should thank Brother Shanyue Dao, without your divine ride, I don't know when I will be able to come to this Grand View Peak!

I saw that Tang Xuanzong and the mountain Taoist were chatting very happily, so I ordered the army to set up camp and build an altar.

Tang Xuanzong and the mountain Taoist talked for a long time on the Grand View Peak, as if they wanted to finish all the things they hadn't said in the past 20 years overnight.

I stood on a boulder, looking at the bright moon in the sky, it was so round, so close, as if I could pick it up with my hand, and thought: Mount Tai admires the moon, it is really an excellent place.

The next day, when the sun had just risen, everyone was looking at the horizon; Because, Mount Tai is also the best place to watch the sunrise.

Mount Tai is the highest mountain in the east, and the sun rises in the east.

Therefore, watching the sunrise in Mount Tai is the first person to see the sun on this day.

Tang Xuanzong had finished bathing and incense and came to the altar.

For a time, the drums sounded in unison, the pennant was unfurled, and the singing shook the sky.

Tang Xuanzong was in a peaceful state and finished sealing Zen.

After the Zen sealing, the mountain Taoist personally read the "Ji Taishan Ming" written by Tang Xuanzong: the emperor of the house, two has six years・・・・・・

As soon as I heard this inscription, where did I understand, when I used to go to school, the language was poor, and when the mountain Taoist finished reading the inscription, I understood the first sentence above, and the last two sentences: the Tao is looking at politics, and the name is not from desire. Unforgettable rocks, broadcast the mountains.

After the inscription of the mountain chief is read, it is the drum music that sings in unison, and the song shakes the sky.

I only heard Gao Lishi say: The emperor has a decree, the god of Mount Tai is the king of Tianqi, the chief of the mountain is the national religion of the heavenly teacher, and the god rides the heavenly hoof as the general of the wind.

After Colliers finished reading the holy decree, there was immediately another drum and singing.

In this joyful sound, the mountain Taoist announced the end of the Zen ceremony.

At this moment, a colorful cloud suddenly appeared in the sky, and a flock of white doves flew briskly around the cloud.

The mountain chief said loudly: Congratulations to the emperor, Ruiyun is auspicious, the white dove is happy, and the emperor is worthy of being the saint of the ages.

As soon as Tang Xuanzong heard this, he smiled happily and said: Today, I will engrave my "Ji Taishan Inscription" on the boulder to commemorate this unforgettable moment.

Everyone present was so happy when they saw Tang Xuanzong, and they all shouted: Long live my emperor, long live, long live・・・・・・

I walked up to the mountain chief, took the "Ji Taishan Inscription", handed it to Chen Xuanli, and asked him to send someone to engrave the inscription on the boulder.

After the completion of the Zen ceremony, only the engraving personnel were left, and all the others walked to the foot of Mount Tai.

Tang Xuanzong was still sitting on the back of the heavenly hoof, and came to the foot of Mount Tai smoothly.

As soon as Tang Xuanzong got off the back of the divine riding heavenly hoof, the divine riding heavenly hoof rushed to the top of Mount Tai like lightning.

This god rode the heavenly hooves extremely fast, and disappeared from people's sight in an instant.

At this time, it was getting late, and the army was encamped at the foot of Mount Tai, preparing to return to Chang'an City early tomorrow morning.
