Cui Linghong rolled his eyes and continued. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The snake lowered its head and didn't go in, and it unloaded Cui Wei. Cui Wei thought that he had arrived in the world, so he walked in the door. He saw a room, very empty, more than a hundred paces wide. The four walls of the cave were hewn into room after room, and in the middle of them were splendid drapery, and hung with golden things, and purple walls, and decorated with pearls, shining like many bright stars together.

There is an incense burner in front of the tent, and there are dragons, phoenixes, turtles, snakes, birds and other images on the incense burner, all of which open their mouths and spew out cigarettes, which are fragrant. There was a small pool on the side, the walls of which were made of gold, and the pool was filled with mercury and wild ducks, gulls, and birds. Wild ducks and gulls are carved out of beautiful jade and float on mercury. There are beds under the four walls, all decorated with rhino horn ivory. On the bed, there are countless musical instruments such as the piano, the sheng, the pipe, the drum, and the drum.

Cui Wei took a closer look, and the handprints on the instrument were still new. Cui Wei suddenly realized that he didn't know what kind of immortal cave this was. After a long while, he took the piano and tried to play it, and all the windows on the four walls were open. A little maid came out and said with a smile: "Yujingzi has already sent Cui Jialangjun here!" So she ran back.

After a while, four women, all wearing ringed buns like the ancients and dragging clothes like neon clothes, came to Cui Wei and said, "Why did Cui Gongzi come to the Emperor's Xuan Palace without permission? ”

Cui Wei put down the piano and bowed down repeatedly. The four women also bowed back. Cui Wei said: "Since it is the emperor's palace, where is the emperor?" ”

The woman replied, "The emperor went to Zhurong's wedding." So they asked Cui Wei to sit on the bed and play the piano, and Cui Wei played a song "Hu Ji".

The woman asked, "What kind of song is this?" ”

Cui Wei said: "This is "Hu Ji". ”

The woman said, "What is 'Hu Ji'? We don't understand. ”

Cui Wei said: "During the Han Dynasty, Zhonglang exiled Cai Yong's daughter Cai Wenji in Hudi, and when she came back, she lamented her story in Hudi, so she played the piano and played this tune, like the mournful voice of Hudi blowing the flute. ”

The four women all said happily, "This is indeed a new song." So they put down the food and started drinking. Cui Wei kowtowed and earnestly asked to go home.

The woman said: "Since Cui Gongzi is here, this is all predetermined fate, why be in such a hurry!" Please stay a few days less, the Yangcheng envoy will be here soon, and you can follow him back. Then he said to Cui Wei: "The emperor has allowed Mrs. Tian to be your wife, and you can see her now." ”

Cui Wei didn't know what was going on, so he didn't dare to agree. So he asked the maid to find Mrs. Tian. Mrs. Tian refused to come, saying, "I didn't dare to see Cui Jialangjun without getting the emperor's edict." ”

The second time she asked her to come, she didn't come, so the four women said to Cui Wei: "Mrs. Tian is kind and beautiful, unparalleled in the world, I hope you treat her well." This was also determined in a previous life. Mrs. Tian is the daughter of King Qi. ”

Cui Wei said: "Who is King Qi? ”

The woman said: "The king of Qi is called Tian Heng, and he lived on the island after destroying the Qi country in the early years of the Han Dynasty. ”、

After a while, the sunlight came into the seat, and Cui Wei looked up and saw that there was a hole on it, and he could vaguely see the sky in the world.

The four women said, "The messenger from Yangcheng is here. ”

So there was an white sheep that came down slowly from the sky, and in a moment came to the seat. There was a man on the back of a sheep. The man's clothes and hat were neat. He was holding a large pen and a cyan bamboo slip with seal characters written on it. He placed the bamboo slip on the incense table.

The four women asked a maid to read the bamboo slip: "Xu Shen, the assassin of Guangzhou, died, and Zhao Chang took over." ”

The woman poured wine for the messenger and said, "Cui Gongzi wants to go back to Panyu County, please bring it back." ”

The messenger said yes loudly.

The woman turned back to Cui Wei and said, "Another day, you will change the clothes and house for the messenger to reward him." ”

Cui Wei just agreed vigorously.

The four women said: "The emperor has an edict to give you the national treasure Yang Suizhu." After you get there, there can be a Hu man who will buy it for 100,000 yuan. So he asked a maid to open a jade box, take out a pearl and give it to Cui Wei.

Cui Wei thanked him and took it. He said to the four women: "I have never met the emperor, and I am not a relative of the emperor, why did you give me such a valuable gift?" ”

The woman said: "Your ancestors left a poem on Yuetai, and the poem inspired Xu Shen, and Xu Shen repaired Yuetai." The emperor was moved and also wrote poems about harmony. The meaning of the beads that have been given to you has been revealed in the poem. If we don't tell, don't you know? ”

Cui Wei said: "I don't know what kind of poem the emperor wrote? ”

The woman asked a maid to write an inscription on the pen of the Yangcheng envoy: "Chitose is at the corner of the barren platform, and it is too annoying to be too heavy." Feeling the gentleman to wipe what it means, to repay the beautiful woman and the pearl. ”

Cui Wei said: "What was the emperor's original name? ”

The woman said, "Of course, I will find out later." ”

The woman said to Cui Wei: "On the 15th of July, you will prepare fine wine and a hearty meal in the secluded house of Pujian Temple in Guangzhou, and we will send Mrs. Tian there." ”

Cui Wei bowed down again and again to say goodbye. He was just about to ride on the back of the sheep, but the woman said, "I know that you have Bao Gu's mugwort, so you can keep a little." ”

Cui Wei left some mugwort, but he didn't know who Aunt Bao was. In an instant, he was out of the cave. As soon as their feet were on the ground, the messenger and the sheep were gone. Looking at the starry sky and Hehan, it was already the fifth watch at this time. Immediately hearing the bell of Pujian Temple, he came to the temple, and the monks of the temple gave him the porridge in the morning, so he returned to Guangzhou.

Cui Wei used to rent a house to live in, and on the day he arrived home, he inquired, and people told him that he had been away from home for three years. The master said to Cui Wei, "Where have you been?" Why didn't you come back for three years? Cui Wei didn't tell the truth. When I opened the door, I saw that the dusty bed was still the same. He was very sad in his heart. He inquired about the situation of the assassination, and sure enough, Xu Shen died and was replaced by Zhao Chang.

So Cui Wei came to the Persian inn and secretly sold the pearl. As soon as an old Hu man saw this bead, he immediately prostrated on the ground and saluted, saying, "You obviously entered the tomb of Zhao Tuo, the king of Nanyue, and came out again, otherwise, you should not have obtained this treasure." ”

Because Zhao Tuo was buried with this pearl. Cui Wei told him truthfully, and then he knew that the emperor was Zhao Tuo, because Zhao Tuo was also once known as Emperor Wu of Nanyue. So the old Hu people bought the pearls with 100,000 yuan. Cui Wei asked Hu Daodao: "On what basis did you recognize it?" ”

Hu Ren said: "This is the national treasure of my big food country, Yang Suizhu." In the past, in the early years of the Han Dynasty, Zhao Tuo sent a talented person to climb the mountain and sail and steal this bead to Panyu County, and it has been a thousand years now. There is a person in my country who understands the celestial phenomena and said that the national treasure should be returned in the coming year, so the king of my country called me and prepared a big ship and a large amount of money for me, and asked me to come to Panyu to search for this treasure. I got it today. So the old Hu man took out the jade liquid and washed the pearls, and the light filled the house.

The Hu people immediately sailed back to the Great Food Country. Cui Wei got the money and prepared the family property. However, he searched for the envoy of Yangcheng but there was no news. Later, he came to the City God Temple, and suddenly found that there was a statue of a god very similar to the messenger of Yangcheng, and saw that there were small characters on the magic pen, which turned out to be the title of the maid, so he prepared wine and meat to pay tribute. He redecorated and whitewashed the idols and expanded the temple. Only then did I know that Yangcheng was Guangzhou City, and there were five sheep in the temple.

Cui Wei looked for where the old man surnamed Ren lived, and the old man in the village told him that what he was looking for was nothing more than the grave of Ren Huan, the commander of the South Vietnamese. He climbed the palace of King Yue again and read the poems of his ancestors. The poem is like this: "The pines and cypresses of Yuejing Gangtou are old, and the autumn grass grows on the Yuewang platform." The ancient tomb has no children and grandchildren for many years, and the savages have trampled on the official road. "There are also poems by the king of Yue, and the handwriting is very strange. So he inquired of the people in charge. The person in charge said: "Because Dr. Xu Shen was moved by Cui Shiyu's poem because he stepped on this stage, he repainted the Taidian and made the Taidian look new.

Later, it was July 15, and Cui Wei prepared a rich clean and sweet meal and wine, which were kept in the monk's room in Pujian Temple. In the middle of the night, four women came with Mrs. Tian. Mrs. Tian has a beautiful face and elegant speech. The four women drank and laughed with Cui Wei, and said goodbye when it was about to dawn. Cui Wei then thanked him again, and wrote a letter to King Yue, with very modest words and generous gifts, just to show respect. So he went back to the house with Mrs. Tian.

Cui Wei asked Mrs. Tian, "Since you are the daughter of the King of Qi, why do you want to marry a Nanyue?" ”

Mrs. said: "My country was ruined, and I was taken captive by King Yue to be a concubine. When the king of Yue died, he used me to be buried. I don't even know what era it is. Thinking about Tian Guang's cooking and killing of Li Shiqi, it was like it happened yesterday. Every time I think about the past, I burst into tears. ”

Cui Wei asked, "Who are those four women?" The lady said: "Two of them were offered by the king of Ouyue, and the other two were sacrificed by the king of Minyue, Wuzhu, and they were both martyred." ”

Cui Wei asked again: "Who is the Aunt Bao that the four women said before?" ”

The lady said, "It's Bao Liangnu, that is, Ge Hong's wife." She did a lot of moxibustion to treat patients in the South China Sea. ”

Cui Wei was amazed at the old lady in the past. He asked again, "Why is the snake called Yujingzi?" ”

Mrs. said: "In the past, An Qisheng often rode this dragon to meet Yujing, so he called it Yujingzi. ”

Cui Wei because he drank the dragon's aftermath in the cave, his skin looked young and delicate, and his body was light and strong, and then he lived in the South China Sea for more than ten years, so he scattered gold and silver and broke his family property, concentrated on cultivation, and even took his wife to Luofu Mountain to visit Aunt Bao. Later, I don't know where he went
