Chapter 3 Tsing Yi

History has been confused, since the Tang monk Xitian successfully returned, the Tang Dynasty has continued, and now the Tang Dynasty is still a behemoth, all countries come to the dynasty, extremely strong. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

In the past hundreds of years, the land south of the Yangtze River has been greatly developed, becoming the main granary of the Tang Dynasty, and there are many literati talents, but many of the poets and poets such as poets and saints known to the world have not appeared in this era, and some have not created many good poems on the 'original history'.

With the spread of Buddhism to the east, now the immortals and Buddhas are almost integrated into a family, but the main way back for mortals and spirits after cultivating the positive fruit is still the heavenly court. For example, the black bear monster and red child in the Journey to the West were taken away by Guanyin Bodhisattva.

In addition, some powerful disciples will open mountains and establish sects in the world, such as the Maoshan faction, the Kunlun faction, the Shushan faction, etc., which are the sects established by those Taoist powerful disciples, which are basically dedicated to the Sanqing or some Taoist gods.

Of course, Buddhism is not to be outdone, all kinds of Buddhist temples bloomed everywhere in the Tang Dynasty, and Taoism is divided into courts, although Buddhism and Taoism are almost integrated together, but after all, one is a local school, one is a foreign school, although the surface is harmonious, but behind the scenes, but intrigues, and strive to develop their own believers.

But at this point, Buddhism prevails. It's no wonder that Buddhism is the equality of all living beings, and there is no one in the world who cannot be measured, but Taoism is more high-end, and the basic qualifications are not very good and you are not allowed to come in.

When you meet a person who sees through the red dust, Buddhism's approach is to absorb you and let you eat fasting and pray Buddha for the rest of your life; And the Taoist approach is to persuade you to go back quickly, marry a wife and have children, pass on the ancestry, live with the flow, and don't come to cultivate. It's too bitter!

Under different doctrines, Buddhism has basically dominated the incense adherents in the past few hundred years, but fortunately, the Tang emperor's surname was Li, and Taoism was enshrined as the state religion from the founding of the country, and Laozi Li Er became the emperor's ancestor. Under the support of national policies, although Taoism does not take advantage of incense believers, it has more trust from the leaders, which is something that Buddhism cannot want.

Therefore, the current society of the Tang Dynasty has formed such a situation, the rich and powerful people believe in the Tao, hoping that they can get some immortality and evil spirits, and live a more nourishing life; Inferior people who have no money and no power believe in Buddhism, and look forward to being a good person and having a good birth in the next life.

Of course, there are some people who believe in it all, so it's up to them.

……

The water is shining and sunny, and the mountains are empty and rainy.

If you want to compare West Lake to Xizi, light makeup is always appropriate.

Qingming Festival, on the shore of West Lake, standing on the broken bridge, looking at the scenery of West Lake from afar, Zuo Xiaoyou remembered a poem-

You stand on the bridge and look at the scenery,

The people watching the view are watching you from upstairs.

The moon adorns your windows,

You decorate other people's dreams.

"Whose dream will I decorate?" Zuo Xiaoyou smiled faintly and turned to leave the broken bridge.

The legend of the new white lady, the broken bridge will meet, it will be Xu Xian, but 1,700 years ago, the person who saved Bai Suzhen was not the little shepherd boy, even if the little shepherd boy was reincarnated for 10,000 lifetimes, he would never meet the white lady.

But as the person who saved Bai Suzhen, Zuo Xiaoyou doesn't seem to need Bai Suzhen's repayment, the reason why he came to Hangzhou many years in advance is to see the time, can he meet Bai Suzhen in the West Lake?

It's an interesting logical question. If Bai Suzhen wants to achieve positive results, she must first repay the grace of saving her life, if she does not report it, she will not be able to reach her thoughts and achieve positive results, so after meeting Guanyin Bodhisattva, Guanyin Bodhisattva asked her to repay her kindness first, and instructed her to go to the 'West Lake High Place'.

Xu Xian is just a mortal, speculating on his fate and direction is very simple, so Guanyin can easily give guidance, but the left and the right are different, after 1,700 years of cultivation, his Fuxi gossip cultivation is extremely profound, not only can calculate the past and future, good fortune and misfortune, and can even cover up the heavens, so that people can't see through him. Even if Guanyin Master is a profound cultivator, it is difficult to calculate his position. In this case, without Guanyin's guidance, will Bai Suzhen still come?

After living for so long, Zuo Xiaoyou has lost interest in many things, but in the face of this causal logic problem, he is still very curious, but he wants to see how the drama of the Legend of the New White Lady starts?

……

There is a dilapidated palace in Shuangcha Lane, called Qiu Wangfu, this Qiu Wang intended to rebel more than ten years ago, but the conspiracy was exposed, and he was robbed of his family and exterminated his family, but the hundreds of people in Qiu Wangfu are still ghostly, making waves in Qiu Wang's Mansion, causing Qiu Wangfu to quickly fall into disrepair, and later the Son of Heaven found a Taoist priest to eliminate the evil ghosts in Qiu Wang's Mansion, and ordered Buddhism to spend 7749 days, and finally the fierce ghosts and ghosts in Qiu Wang's Mansion were super clean.

But there was such a big thing in the Qiu Wang's Mansion, resulting in no one daring to live here, and after more than ten years, the Qiu Wang's Mansion has been dilapidated. Because of the huge area of the Qiu Wangfu, it costs a lot of money to repair or rebuild, and the county order will not move this hot potato, but no one has taken over, so a feng shui treasure is desolate.

On this day, Zuo Xiaoyou spent 1,000 taels of gold to buy the entire Qiu Wang's Mansion, and then recruited a large number of craftsmen to rebuild the Qiu Wang's Mansion.

How big is the Qiu Wang's Mansion? Is a 100 square meter house big? The area of the entire Qiu Wang's Mansion is 10,000 times that of a 100-square-meter house! That's an area of 100 hectares.

Thanks to the fact that this is ancient, put down the modern era, if you want to get such a large piece of construction area, you can only run to the Australian enclosure.

With such a huge area, it is natural to build a huge courtyard wall first, and there are mountains and rivers, pavilions, pavilions, pavilions, and pavilions in the courtyard wall. Zuo Xiaoyou basically built in accordance with the style of Suzhou gardens, using thousands of skilled craftsmen, and it took three years to complete the construction of the new mansion.

When a huge plaque with the word 'Zuofu' written on it hung above the gate, Zuo Xiaoyou invited local figures with heads and faces to come here to celebrate.

In the past three years, Zuo Xiaoyou has almost handed over the local magnates in Hangzhou. These powerful figures have great respect for Zuo Xiaoyou, because Zuo Xiaoyou is the master of the middle lift five years ago.

Today, the four seas are peaceful, the literary style is prosperous, as long as the world's scholars can be admitted to Xiucai, they can have a good food and clothing in the local area, and if they are further admitted to the Juren, they can see the official and not worship, and have a considerable degree of identity in the local area. At this time, no matter what you are an official or what you do, you can get great convenience and be respected by many people.

With the identity of lifting people, Zuo Xiaoyou can settle down in Hangzhou very smoothly. As for the county magistrate and other local squires hoping that Zuo Xiaoyou could go further and get the Jinshi, champion and other fames, Zuo Xiaoyou just smiled faintly and ignored it.

Officialdom is dangerous, how can you be at ease in the local area. What's more, he still has to wait for the White Lady here, how can he have time to take the Laoshizi Jinshi exam? As the saying goes, there is heaven above, and there is Suzhou and Hangzhou below, and you are in heaven on earth, so why bother to go to the court to intrigue.

Because of the huge area of Zuofu, Zuo Xiaoyou has recruited a large number of family members and maids in the past three years, with more than 500 people, and the cost of so many people is an astronomical amount. In order to support these people, Zuo Xiaoyou had to start a business in partnership with local magnates for the past three years. There are many types of businesses, including furniture, restaurants, ready-to-wear stores, etc., but the most profitable is a small shop called Treasure Pavilion.

The glass products sold in it are exclusively mastered by Zuo Xiaoyou, such as wine jugs, wine glasses, glass beads, etc., which can be described as priceless, but the most profitable is the dressing mirror, a small 10x10 mirror costs 1,000 taels of silver, if the kind of mirror that can be inlaid on the dresser, it costs 1,000 taels of gold, and there are only three sides per month.

Such a huge benefit, will attract others to covet, but Zuo Xiaoyou has a way, he knew a few wine and meat friends when he was taking the exam, one of them was admitted to the Jinshi, and now he has served in Beijing, through this relationship, Zuo Xiaoyou gave him a dressing mirror, and then asked him to contact the emperor to see if he could make the glazed products of Zuo's Treasure Pavilion a tribute?

As long as he can hook up with the Heavenly Family, even the biggest officials will never dare to put his hand in.

This friend of his got such a priceless vanity mirror, and he worked extremely hard. Of course, he also has his own considerations, if he can really promote this matter, he, as an intermediary, will definitely be able to get benefits, and promotion and fortune are just around the corner.

In this way, it didn't take long for this friend to really send a glass mirror into the palace, and I heard that the beauties of the harem almost fought in order to compete for the ownership of this mirror......

Later, it was logical that a holy decree was transmitted to Hangzhou, and the glazed products of Zuo's Treasure Pavilion became a tribute, and since then Zuo Xiaoyou is a source of wealth, and there is no need to worry about the more than 500 people in the family.

Just when Zuo Xiaoyou had just settled down, a strange thing happened in the house.

That night, the family in the house was on duty at night, but suddenly saw a cyan figure passing by, and the next moment it disappeared.

The cool breeze blew, and several family members were scared to pee: "Ghost~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~!!! ”

Zuo Xiaoyou was woken up, came to the scene, and asked, "What's going on!?" ”

"Old ...... Sir, there is ...... There are ghosts! The frightened family members trembled and said what had just happened, and the frightened family members and maids who gathered suddenly changed their faces and showed horror on their faces.

Zuo Xiaoyou frowned and asked, "You said you saw the cyan shadow disappear in a flash?" ”

"Yes...... Yes. Jia Ding nodded repeatedly.

"Cyan Shadow ......" Zuo Xiaoyou thoughtfully: "Okay, Zi Bu is silent, strange and confused, I see that you are dazzled for a while, go down!" ”

"Master, no! We really saw it. One of the family members was very upright: "If it's just a small person who sees it, maybe it's dazzling, but all of us see it, it's really not dazzling!" ”

Zuo Xiaoright's eyes widened, and he shouted angrily: "Enough! I say no is no! ”

The family members were suddenly frightened and silent, exhaled left and right, and said, "Okay, let's all go down and rest!" ”

"Yes."

The people dispersed one after another, only Zuo Xiaoyou stayed in place, turned his head to look at the cyan figure that flashed in the Qingfeng Pavilion, smiled faintly, and walked away.

Soon after, we arrived at the Seifu-tei, a garden in the garden of the house, with beautiful scenery and surrounded by water on three sides. As soon as he arrived at the Qingfeng Pavilion, Zuo Xiaoyou said to the cyan figure hiding above the pavilion: "Don't hide your head and tail, show up!" ”

The next moment, a big cyan snake suddenly appeared, opened its bloody mouth, and was about to swallow Zuo Xiaoyou.

"Naughty." Left and right raised his hand and patted it on the snake's kiss. Hearing a plop, the huge green snake fell heavily to the ground, hissing in pain.

"Don't pretend, I didn't have to exert much force." Zuo Xiaoyou sat down on the stone bench under the pavilion, and the wine and food appeared out of thin air and landed on the stone table: "I see that you have cultivated a human body, how about a drink?" ”

The cyan snake stopped rolling, raised its head, looked at him with a pair of black eyes, and for a moment, the blue light flashed, and a young and handsome young man in green clothes appeared in front of Zuo Xiaoyou, which made Zuo Xiaoyou slightly stunned, and then smiled: "Son's good demeanor, please take a seat." ”

The boy in Tsing Yi silently walked to Zuo Xiaoyou and sat down, seeing Zuo Xiaoyou's calm look, he couldn't help but ask, "Don't you ask me where I come from?" ”

"It's just a snake demon." Zuo Xiaoyou handed over a glass of wine: "You have just appeared in your original form." ”

"......" the boy in Tsing Yi snorted coldly: "Aren't you afraid of me?" ”

Saying this, the wine glass still took it.

"Why be afraid?" Left and right raise their glasses.

"You're not afraid I'll eat you?" The boy in Tsing Yi drank the wine very rudely, and then stuck out his tongue: "Ahem, it's a strong wine." ”

Seeing him like this, Zuo Xiaoyou laughed and said, "I didn't expect you to know how to drink, say it earlier!" ”

Then he changed a pot of juice and said: "This hundred fruit brew is made by me collecting hundreds of fruits, the taste is mellow and sweet, and a thousand cups are not drunk, you can try it." ”

"Humph!" The boy in Tsing Yi took a cup, licked it carefully, his eyes lit up, he drank the juice in one gulp, smacked his lips, and said, "It's delicious, this is good." ”

"If you like it, drink more." Zuo Xiaoyou smiled slightly and said, "Don't just drink, but also eat some food." It's easy for me not to take it out and receive people. ”

The boy in Tsing Yi looked at the steaming dishes on the table, as well as some fruit snacks, and raised his head to look at him: "Do you have a mustard seed bag?" ”

"Almost." Zuo Xiaoyou smiled slightly, picked up chopsticks and ate some dishes, looking like he was enjoying it.

Seeing this, the boy in Tsing Yi also picked up the chopsticks and ate them, and after only one bite, he couldn't stop anymore......

Not long after, looking at a few dishes that looked like they had been washed, and the young man in Tsing Yi with a satisfied face, Zuo Xiaoyou put down the empty wine glass in his hand and said with a wry smile: "Childe, can you eat?" ”

"So-so, eight points full!" The boy in Tsing Yi looked bohemian, took a sip of Baiguo stuff, and said, "I didn't expect your food here to be good, and Young Master Ben will come to eat it every day in the future." ”

"......" Zuo Xiaoyou sighed lightly and said, "You're not welcome, you're a monster, but it's a pity that you're not a banshee, otherwise I can take care of your food in the future." (To be continued.) )
