Chapter 309: The Dragon King also has to bow down

The love between men and women is the first time for everyone.

Jing Ning and Xiao Yu, in the Great River Sword Sect, they were scattered everywhere. Both of them have their own pride, so naturally they won't fight for anything for a Xie Baoshu. Jing Ning first said: "I'll go back to take revenge, these things will be talked about later." ”

Xiao Yu also smiled: "I'm going to the Two Realms Mountain to kill demons, and I can talk about it later." ”

The two fairies have their own things to do, as for Xie Baoshu, let him go to hell. The two talked for a while, then said goodbye and left. Yun Qi Old Sword Immortal took Xiao Yu and rushed to the Two Realms Mountain.

On the way, Yun Qi Old Sword Immortal said: "In our Mobei, there is actually a dragon slaying sword, why don't you have a chance?"

"There is Lingshan in the south and the desert in the north. ”

At that time, a poet praised Mobei, where there are not only deserts, but also surrounded by mountains, and the scenery is pleasant. Xiangshuitan Waterfall has always been famous, and there are many monks who come here to play, but the dragon sword that sits on a huge rock downstream of the waterfall is little known.

There is Mobei, the only fairyland.

By the river, the sword body is located on a boulder 10 meters upstream of an ancient stone arch bridge, about two meters long, the sword body has a total of eight sides, the so-called ancients said "eight-sided exquisite", the eight sides of the sword are engraved with words, you can vaguely distinguish the words "such as", "come", "text", "king", "long", "dew", etc., there is an eight-sided seat at the top of the sword, like a miniature pavilion in the park for the sword body to shelter from the wind and rain.

The lower end of the sword is welded into a boulder. Downstream of the sword is an ancient stone arch bridge, the bridge deck is more than 8 meters high from the water surface, and the bridge deck has two stone strips, about one meter wide. No one knows the historical date of the bridge's construction.

The old sword fairy Yunqi said slowly, according to legend, this ancient stone arch bridge was originally composed of eight stone strips, more than five meters wide, and it was an ancient historical road. There are two temples on both sides of the bridge, and due to the large number of pedestrians coming and going, the incense in the temples is also very prosperous. Legend has it that a dragon that lives deep in the Xiangshui beach is very angry but has not been worshiped by people, and his heart is always haunted, always thinking of revenge on humans.

One summer evening, the sky was cloudy, and a moment later lightning and thunder roared, and the wind was fierce. The dragon took the opportunity to get out of the water and slammed the bridge with its tail, and six of the eight bridge decks were broken in an instant.

At this moment of crisis, there is a sword fairy to control the water passing by here, he shouted: "Beast, Hugh is rampant", and then pulled out the sword and fought with the dragon, after three days and three nights of bloody fighting, the physical exertion of both sides was extremely great, the sword fairy stood at the head of the bridge, supporting his body with a sword, and the dragon was also tired of lying by the river with his mouth open and panting.

At this time, the sword immortal seized the favorable opportunity to use all his strength, held the sword and threw it at the dragon ten meters away, and immediately nailed it to the river. Jiaolong raised his neck and nodded as if seeking rescue, and the sword of the sword fairy also turned into eight sides, each of which was deeply inserted into the dragon body, and the former eight-sided majestic Jiaolong finally died after several struggles, and the dragon turned into a boulder after death.

The sword of this sword immortal also turned into a dragon slaying sword, in order to prevent the resurrection of the dead dragon, it once again endangered humans

, and he engraved characters on the eight sides of the sword. Since then, the area has been blessed with no floods, and people have lived and worked in peace and contentment for generations.

Xiao Yu knew that it was Mobei, the only blessed land.

She had been there before, but the dragon sword didn't move. It's not like the one she has on her waist now, it's very powerful. Now, Xiao Yu is extremely concerned about Jiaolong's water walking. On the way to the Two Realms Mountain, they also went to a place.

Ziyun Mountain Temple. A long, long time ago, it was a small temple here, when the Tang Dynasty was just founded, Su Chuanrong, a well-known philanthropist in the Popi River, donated money to expand this temple, this time to build a temple, invited the famous craftsman Nanfeng to build a temple statue, which contains clay statues such as the Dragon King, the God of Wealth, the King of Medicine and Qi Niangniang. On the sixteenth day of the first lunar month every year, good men and women from near and far come to burn incense and make wishes.

Since then, the temple fair starts from the afternoon of the fifteenth day of the first lunar month to the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, and the pedestrians on the west, south, east, and north roads leading to Ziyun Mountain are endless. The midnight of the fifteenth day of the first lunar month is the peak when people come to make wishes and make wishes, and it is also the sleepless night of Ziyun Mountain every year.

Ziyun Mountain, looking from afar, looks like a big rock, so the local people also call it a big stone. Although the height of the mountain is not more than 100 meters, standing on the top of the hill can have a bird's-eye view of the panoramic view of the town of the Popi River, especially the Popi River at the foot of the river like a giant dragon.

There is a big bend in the water of the Popi River under the Ziyun Mountain, forming a deep pool, which is called the big stone pool. The water of the big stone pond is turquoise all year round and never dries up. "The mountain is not high, if there is a fairy, it is famous, the water is not deep, if there is a dragon, it is spiritual." There are immortals in Ziyun Mountain, and there are dragons in Dashitan. This is a story that has been recited by the people of the Popi River.

The water of the Popi River descends from the mountain range in the area of Huangmaojian of Dabie Mountain at an altitude of more than 1,000 meters, and the water potential is fierce and surging, as if falling from the sky, so it is called "Po". The river that catches the sky is slightly "leisurely" to the area of the Popi River, and it has become a place for the dragon king to stay. Therefore, when the Yongji Bridge was built, in order to prevent the dragon from damaging the bridge, a dragon sword was installed on the bridge, and as long as the dragon body touched the bridge stone, the sword would be automatically released.

In the early summer of one year, torrential rains poured and floods were rampant. Two dragons were going to pass through the Yongji Bridge, and the first dragon was cut off when its tail touched the bridge stone, and the second dragon was blinded by one eye, and the dragon that was blinded by one eye could not walk, and stayed in the big stone pond from then on.

"Mai Huang comes, Gu Huang goes" is the legend of "Tail Cutting Dragon". From then on, at the turn of spring and summer, when the wheat was about to be harvested, the dragon who had been cut off would come to Dashitan to visit the dragon who had been left in Dashitan, until the turn of summer and autumn, when the millet was yellow.

When coming and going every year, storms, thunder and lightning, the sky is dark, the wheat fields and rice fields are full of rain, and the wheat and rice are often poured into one place, because the "tail cutting dragon" does not dare to pass through the Yongji Bridge River again, but through the rain of the wheat forest and the valley forest.

The big stone pond has never dried up, so people also call it "bottomless deep pool". Legend has it that there is a Guo family on the street of the Popi River, and the water is still good

High, one summer, swim in the stone pool, rely on water skills, want to explore the bottom of the pool, swim to ten thousand zhang, do not see the bottom of the pool, but see the dragon palace, the dragon king invited, play a game of chess, three days unsuccessful, back to the world, has passed three years. Guo told that there is a dragon palace in the water, everyone respects incense paper, prays for peace, the pond is clear like a mirror, and the mountains are purple clouds. Subsequently, the Ziyun Temple was gradually formed.

In addition, on Tianshui Zhou Road, Xiao Yu also met a dragon king temple.

In ancient Chinese folklore, the Dragon King was the god in charge of the clouds and rain. Therefore, there are many temples dedicated to the dragon king. Whenever the wind and rain are out of balance, there is no rain for a long time, or when the rain does not stop for a long time, the people have to go to the Dragon King Temple to burn incense and pray for the Dragon King to control the water and the wind and rain to be smooth.

Legend has it that in the middle of the Great Sui Dynasty, in the Dragon King Temple in Tai'an Village, there was an old man who lived and watched the temple. One day, a beggar, dressed in rags and unsightly, asked to live in the temple with the old man who watched the temple. The old man in the temple was kind-hearted, and he took pity on the beggar very much, so he agreed to his request. So the two lived together, talked with each other, rejoiced with each other, and were very speculative.

After living for two months, the beggar also understood the geography and landscape of this place, and proposed to resign to another place. The old man who watched the temple kept it again and again, but he didn't get it in use, so he had to agree to the beggar to leave. Before leaving, the beggar took off one of his shoes and gave it to the old man in order to thank the old man for his grace. When the old man saw that it was a broken shoe, he was very unhappy and did not accept it.

The beggar touched his nose and knew that he did not understand his intentions, and then took out a bright bead from his pocket, grabbed the right arm of the old man who was watching the temple, put the bead into his right palm, and then recited the Dharma formula, and said: "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable! In the future, in the year of great drought, you will offer this bead and invite the villagers to pray for rain, and the dragon lord will come to help. ”

After saying that, he walked away and did not stay long.

After resigning, the old man who watched the temple remembered the beggar's instructions before leaving, did not dare to slack off, and treasured the beads in his old wardrobe. Later, one year, the season had passed the "little summer", and the sky had not given rain, and the sun was always shining every day, the heat was unstoppable, and the crops were very dry. The villagers were so anxious that they scratched their ears and cheeks, and they didn't know what to do.

Seeing this scene of longing for rain, the old man who watched the temple immediately thought about it, and said to himself: "Why don't you offer the pearl and call the villagers to kneel and pray for rain in the temple of the Dragon King, maybe it will work!" He discussed his ideas with the village chief and village deputy one, and the village chief and village deputy and others unanimously praised it. Immediately summoned the men, women and children of the village to come to the Dragon King Temple. Seeing the old man in the temple put up the incense case, enshrined the pearl, the villagers knelt down in the courtyard in front of the incense case, burned incense and kowtowed, and silently made a wish. In my heart, I was like fifteen buckets of water—seven up and eight down, muttering very much, and I would be suspicious.

From half a morning to noon, men, women and children knelt in the Dragon King Temple reverently, not daring to leave for a moment, nor caring about lunch, anyway, they were all about praying for rain. After noon, about three hours after praying for rain, I saw dark clouds rolling in the western sky, covering the sky. In an instant, the wind was fierce, and the downpour fell from the sky, and suddenly the sky and the earth were gray, cold, and confused. People praying for rain

Seeing that it was raining, they were overjoyed and hurriedly ran into the main hall to avoid the rain. One after another: "The beggar who gave the beads is clearly a person who has attained the Tao, and people are disguised as beggars to enlighten the world!"

Since then, every time there is a major drought, the people of Tai'an Village pray for rain in the Longwang Temple, and God gives rain every time to water the crops.

After the repeated success of praying for rain at the Longwang Temple in Tai'an Village, the news spread to Taiyuan Mansion. One year, Taiyuan also suffered from a great drought, after the Fu Yin learned, he sent someone to Tai'an Village, and invited this pearl to Taiyuan. Fu Yin saw that this bead was very useful, so he didn't want to return it to Tai'an Village. But the Tai'an people would never agree, after several painstaking negotiations, finally the beads were returned, and they were still handed over to the old man of the temple for proper preservation, and every time there was a drought, they still took it out to pray for rain and relieve the drought.

A few years later, the old man who saw the temple passed away, and the pearl was also missing.

When Xiao Yu came here, it was a cloudy day, and the old sword immortal of Yunqi on the side closed his eyes and recuperated, not interested in this dragon king temple at all. Xiao Yu walked in alone, and in the temple, there was a statue of the dragon king.

Xiao Yu looked at the statue and was stunned.

Suddenly, the statue of the Dragon King suddenly folded his hands, aimed at Xiao Yu, and bowed. Xiao Yu narrowed his eyes, fortunately there was no one at this time. Otherwise, when I saw this scene, I would really cry out. The old sword strip behind her is ready to move.

Xiao Yu said loudly: "Before coming here, I took a look at the villagers around me, and it was not bad, so I won't compare with you." In the future, if you have evil thoughts in your heart, even if you are thousands of miles away, I can cut you down with one sword. Take good care of the people here, do you hear?"

The idol said, "Follow the law." ”

Xiao Yu turned around and left, no longer looking at the statue of the Dragon King.

This statue of the dragon king does not have the canonization of the Tang Dynasty, and the god position is not right. If you want to make a move, you can kill him at any time. This kind of ancestral temple without body is an obscene temple. Originally, it was not allowed, but there are many people in the Tang Dynasty, and it can't be eradicated.

As long as he doesn't absorb incense indiscriminately, he will be the one who is in trouble, and he will go.
