Chapter Twenty-Nine: Storytelling
"Please Listen to the Story"
“......”
"Young Master Ben heard a story when he was traveling, and he liked it very much," Su Man walked to the wall without hurrying, and casually found a bamboo basket and buckled it upside down, brushed the dust and sat on it.
“......”
I saw her leaning against her head, and she didn't look at the thousand machines, and slowly closed the folding fan in her hand along the fan bone section by section, without crumpling the satin fan.
Then he played with a red agate round pendant on the fan and smiled
"It is said that in ancient times, the aura of heaven and earth gave birth to a mixed yuan pearl, which was very spiritually reincarnated and reincarnated in the body of Nezha, a baby in Chentangguan. After worshipping under the Taiyi Zhenren Sect of Jinguang Cave in Qianyuan Mountain, he learned a skill.
Chentangguan, where Nezha lives, is under the jurisdiction of the prince of the Dragon Palace, who is ugly and tyrannical, but whenever anyone sees him, he will kill and disfigure. As a result, the surrounding fishermen did not dare to rely on the sea to catch fish, and would rather eat tree bark than go into the sea to catch fish during the famine.
After Nezha returned from learning from Taiyi Zhenren, after learning about the evil deeds of the Dragon Prince from the fishermen, he stepped on the Hot Wheels to the East China Sea to find the Dragon Prince's theory.
But when the prince saw that Nezha, a mortal, could have such a magic weapon, he wanted to kill him and take his treasure. As a result, he was tied up by Nezha with Chaotian Aya and Qiankun Circle, and finally died under Nezha's fire-tipped spear.
The dragon king knew that his son had died at the hands of a mortal, and he was furious, so he directly flooded Chentang Pass. Nezha, in order to protect the people, confronted the Dragon King with his own strength, but after all, he was only reincarnated for seven years, and his Taoism was insufficient, although he defeated the Dragon King, he was also shattered.
However, the dragon king is also a hundred-legged insect that dies but does not stiffen, and the dragon king has been potentially deep sea healing after being injured. However, he had thousands of soldiers under him, and he signaled that his soldiers would bring disaster to the people, and for a time the coastal people were in a difficult situation.
Later, Taiyi Zhenren reshaped the golden body of Nezha with lotus root, and after the resurrection, Nezha took refuge in Taoism and did good deeds and accumulated virtues. Nezha drove away the shrimp soldiers and crabs that attacked the seaside villages, protected the villagers, and became a good boy who guarded the villagers.
Nezha, who has been an immortal for a long time, needs to go through another calamity to become a god. This catastrophe is to be truly reincarnated as a mortal and experience the joys and sorrows of the world.
It's just that those Dragon Palace soldiers knew that Nezha was reincarnated as a human and that there was no one to protect the coastal people, so they began to make trouble everywhere. And the Dragon King's body is also gradually recovering, and he will be able to return to the Dragon Palace in less than a hundred years.
That Nezha's golden body is a lotus root, and the reincarnation will carry the lotus mark, if Nezha can't survive a hundred years later, without the protection of immortals, I don't know what the world will become. (Su Man made it up, if there is any similarity, it is pure coincidence...... It is estimated that King Xu Lu and their coffin boards are about to fly)
The Xun Qianji on the other end was looking at the storyteller in front of him with relish, this story was over, and he didn't understand what this Young Master Ye was going to do.
"Ye Shao, just say what you want to do!"
"You are very good at spreading news, I hope that within five days, this story can spread all over the capital"
"What?" Xun Qianji didn't seem to hear clearly, scratched his ears and said, "What are you talking about?" ”
"I loved that story and wanted to share it with you. As the saying goes, it's better to be alone than to be happy. Do you say it is?"
"Ye Shao, you are benevolent and loving, I admire it below"
I admire you for being a ghost! Young Master Ye, you are so idle! Let me tell you this story, there must be a deception in it.
Su Man saw the disbelief and suspicion in Xun Qianji's eyes. She curled the corners of her mouth slightly, brushed the floor and fanned the folding fan twice.
"Naturally, you will be paid for doing things, and the money bag in front of you is a deposit"
Before Su Man finished speaking, he saw Xun Qianji and immediately flipped the money bag in front of him with his hand, and after a flash of light flashed in his eyes, he immediately opened the bag and glanced at it.
It's all silver ingots, and this bag is less than fifty taels.
The corners of his mouth curled up slightly. Although he was already excited, he still looked embarrassed on his face. "Young Master Ye, it's not difficult to spread the news and tell the story, but if you want the capital to know the story within five days, the time is really less. It's a bit difficult."
Hearing this, Su Man's eyes narrowed slightly, and he took out a small bead from the bag on his waist and threw it over. Xun Qianji caught the "hidden weapon" with one hand, opened his palm and took a look, his eyes lit up instantly, it was a heavy golden gold bead.
"I think Nezha is like a real person, I like it very much, you know?"
"I understand, I understand, Ye Shao, if you say he exists, he exists. Do you have any other instructions, I will remember them" Xun Qianji carefully wiped the gold beads and didn't look at Su Man, grinned happily, and accidentally pulled the wound at the corner of his mouth and immediately gasped.
"Hiss~"
"If you do it well, there will be a golden bead to make it right after the deed."
Hearing this, Xun Qianji looked up at Su Man, stretched out three fingers, and said seriously, "Sensei said five days, three days is enough."
After receiving the reply, Su Man didn't stay long, she got up and straightened her clothes, snapped her fingers into the air, and Su Da ran over from outside the alley and left after her.
At the railing of the terrace of the restaurant, Ji Yechen held a cup in his hand and saw a young man in brocade clothes and hair shaking a folding fan and a guard walking out of the alley behind.
That alley was a hidden road to Pingkangfang, and few people came and went during the day. At first glance, it looks like a pampered rich kid, who is not very old and has learned to have fun in Pingkangfang (the place where the leather and meat business in the capital lives).
Ji Yechen sneered lightly, and was about to turn his head to talk to Bai Qirui, when out of the corner of his eye, he saw that Xun Qianji also came out of the alley. The other party looked like he had just been taught a lesson, and his face was also colorful, he was wiping the blood from the corners of his mouth with his sleeve, and squinted his eyes in the direction where the young man had left, as if he was thinking deeply.
Then Xun Qianji turned around and looked at Pingkangfang, and then took out the money bag in his arms again, and then looked up at the sun in the sky, dazzling but not warm. After a while, he was dazzled by the sunlight, closed his eyes against the wall for a moment, and then reopened his eyes, and he strode towards the nearby storytelling teahouse as if he had been resurrected with full blood.
Three days later, the streets and alleys of the capital were full of Su Man's version of Nezha's story, from the elderly to the drooping children, they all knew about Nezha's reincarnated spirit bead, and believed that if the spirit bead could not be ranked first in a hundred years, the dragon king would bring a huge catastrophe to the world.
"Yuan Fang, do you believe that the place where we live will be swallowed up by the Dragon Palace in a hundred years?" Song Ci asked with his chin open with a pair of curious eyes.
"We originally came from the water, where did we go back and forth," Li Yuanfang replied without looking up, turning a page of the book.
Hearing this, Su Man looked at Li Yuanfang thoughtfully with a little surprise.
"Where do you come from, where are you going, we are not fish" Song Ci pouted, and then there seemed to be fire in her eyes, "But I heard that if Nezha can survive the tribulation and succeed in becoming a god, he will definitely be able to subdue the dragon king and prevent him from causing trouble to the world." I don't know how Nezha is a heroic figure, it is said that finding a man with a lotus flower in his eyebrows is the reincarnation of Nezha"
Su Man saw Song Ci's heart, and the corners of his forehead jumped, how could this little girl have the appearance of a Zixia fairy who fantasized about the Supreme Treasure stepping on the colorful clouds to marry her.
Little chubby girl, then Nezha is a clown baby with two black circles and hot wheels.
At this moment, Su Manzhen is a little embarrassed, so how did Xun Qianji polish and promote that story.
In fact, there are a thousand Nezha in the eyes of a thousand people.
