Chapter 231: The Origin of the Ox Bone Bridge

Ao Guang continued: "This has hurt the eighth aunt, and she has been searching for tens of thousands of years in the world, but she has not found it. Unexpectedly, he was found on the western shore of the East China Sea.

"I didn't expect that Uncle Eighth would encounter such a catastrophe and suffer such wrongs. Damn the nine-tailed fox, I would have known that a thunderstorm had to kill her. ”

Long Yi pondered for a while when he heard this, and said: "One is called Bizi, and the other is called Bigan, although the name is only one word different, and the appearance is somewhat similar.

"But there are many people with the same name and surname in the world, and there are many people who look alike. You might as well go to Taishang Laojun to verify it and see if it's really a starling.

"If it's true, it's good to give an explanation to the eighth sister-in-law. She must still be waiting for the starling, looking for the starling, otherwise, she would not have met Xiaoting who was fleeing for her life, and she would not have known that I was imprisoned on the planet of God. ”

Ao Guang nodded: "Uncle Nine is right, I'll go to Taishang Laojun when I go back and ask clearly." ”

Long Yi: "Who is Ren Qiang you just said?" Why haven't I heard that the water tribe also has a name Ren Qiang? Is it male or female? ”

Ao Guang: "Male." Oh, this Ren Qiang, like Aunt Zhunjiu, is also a traverser, at the beginning of the crossing to a bush of roses on the original east coast, witnessed the battle of the dragon, phoenix, and unicorn, also witnessed your death, and witnessed the Eight Dragons Altar. By the time he took on human form, it was already tens of thousands of years later, so you don't know. ”

"Where did he travel from?" As soon as she heard that it was a traverser, Qi Xiaoting suddenly became interested and hurriedly interjected and asked.

Ao Guang: "I also crossed over from Jianjin Prefecture, and I was still a civilian worker. ”

Qi Xiaoting became excited when she heard this: "Say quickly, which era did he travel through?" Is it soul piercing or physical crossing? ”

Ao Guang: "It seems to be from the 21st century. I heard that before the crossing, I was doing writing work, and I had a very strong literary foundation and wrote a lot of good articles. Later, he became a clerk of the heavenly court, in charge of collecting and sorting out major events in heaven and earth.

"As for soul wear or body crossing, I think, it should be soul wear! Because, at first, he crossed over to a bush of roses. ”

Qi Xiaoting: "That must be the soul piercing." ”

"Xiaoting, aren't you also from the 21st century, do you know him?" Long Yi asked Qi Xiaoting.

Qi Xiaoting shook her head: "There are more people doing writing work in Jianjin Prefecture. Besides, even if it is crossed, especially the soul pierced, it is death in the human world, and there are no special signs, and it cannot be heard. ”

"He is very shrewd," Ao Guang said, "After turning into a human, he was very active in the flood wilderness, and was accepted as a disciple by Sanqing, and he was very familiar with Nuwa and Houtu. When you meet, I think you must have a lot of common language. ”

"Meet? We don't seem to be traveling through a time and space, right? Qi Xiaoting wondered.

Ao Guang: "Crossing is not limited by time and space. He witnessed the fight between the dragon, the unicorn, and the phoenix, and also witnessed Nuwa creating a man. Bai Yufengxing scattered soil to fill the East China Sea for a thousand miles, it was he who found the original east coast and recruited back all the people who were still alive in the original Thornjin Prefecture, so that the Thornjin Prefecture had people and gradually developed. You say, what plane is he from? ”

Qi Xiaoting: "God, this is tens of thousands of years, then, how old does he have to live?" ”

Ao Guang: "People who have entered the flood period are different from mortals, and there is no such thing as age. ”

Qi Xiaoting: "Then, what about the current one?" ”

If the traverser can break the life insurance of mortals, won't he make a fortune! Qi Xiaoting thought beautifully.

Ao Guang: "It depends on your creation. Ren Qiang traveled to a rose on the edge of the east coast, and it took tens of thousands of years from plants to humans alone. You are different from him. ”

From plants to people, it will take tens of thousands of years, heaven, what kind of power is that?

"I must see him!" Qi Xiaoting gave an order to Ao Guang for the first time: "I don't care how much trouble you have, you must find him for me." ”

"Aunt Quasi-Jiu commanded, and the little nephew must do it! I'll do these two things when I go back: verify the eighth uncle and find Ren Qiang. After Ao Guang finished speaking, he arched his hand and asked Qi Xiaoting to take him out.

As soon as Ao Guang was sent away, the scud paper crane also came, and the paper crane wrote: The two snake demons ran out for sixty or seventy miles, hid in Dongniugu Village, the southernmost part of Jianjin Prefecture, and did not leave.

"Let's go, let's go to Dongniugu Village." Qi Xiaoting said decisively. He also said to Dongsheng and Li Hei'er, "Which of you knows the way? ”

Dongsheng: "I recognize that Dongniugu Village is less than ten miles away from our buckwheat village. ”

Qi Xiaoting pasted a magic talisman for each person, and Dongsheng led the way and ran towards Dongniugu Village.

In order to eliminate the loneliness of the road, and to find out why the snake princess chose to stop in East Niugu Village, Qi Xiaoting asked Dongsheng about the origin of East Niugu Village.

"Dongniugu Village is in the southernmost part of Jianjin Prefecture, close to the Qingliang River." Dongsheng introduced: "On the ground less than five miles, there are five cowbone villages: front cow bones, back cow bones, Yao cow bones, Yan cow bones, and East beef bones. ”

Qi Xiaoting: "Why is it called Niugu Village?" And so much? ”

Dongsheng: "On the Qingliang River in the east of Dongniugu Village, there is a Niugu Bridge, and the villagers are named Niugu Village in order to commemorate this bridge. ”

"Anything to say?" Qi Xiaoting's addiction to collecting folklore has come up again.

Dongsheng: "It's a big deal, there's a very touching legend here?" ”

Qi Xiaoting heard a joy: "Then you can tell us about it, so as to relieve the loneliness of the road." ”

So, Dongsheng told the following legendary story:

But it was said that Taishang Laojun had lived in the sky for a long time and felt bored, so he rode his mount Qingniu to the world to play and relax.

When I walked to the old city, I happened to meet my apprentice Tie Guan Li. After seeing the ceremony, Tie Guan Li asked, "Master, where do you want to go?" ”

Taishang Laojun: "The lower realm comes to scatter your heart, and there is no certain purpose." ”

Tie Guan Li: "Master, not far ahead is Jianjin Prefecture, not far from Lu Dongbin's Tibetan Scripture Temple, why don't you go over and have a look?" ”

Taishang Laojun: "Lu Dongbin told me that the place where he preached was a good place, haven't you heard of building a temple?" ”

Tie Guan Li: "Master, it's like this: Lu Dongbin won the victory in preaching scriptures in Jianjin Prefecture, and the imperial court funded the construction of a temple for him to collect scriptures, and collected all his scriptures in it.

"The temple is very majestic and magnificent, Lu Dongbin is very happy, and he can't invite us to a gathering of eight immortals."

Taishang Laojun: "This Lu Dongbin is love to show off." ”

Tie Guan Li: "This is good, we Eight Immortals have a meeting place." Today happens to be the gathering of the Eight Immortals, and the master is also going to be lively! ”

Taishang Laojun: "Go and go, everyone is willing to go to a good place, why don't I go!" ”

The master and apprentice walked and talked, and unconsciously came to the east bank of the Qingliang River.

There is no bridge on the Qingliang River, just an old man ferrying back and forth. Tie Guan Li was about to throw his crutches to drive the overpass, but was stopped by Taishang Laojun: "Go to the city with you, let's make a boat to go over." ”

When Tie Guan Li heard this, he immediately called the old man over.

When the boat came ashore, the old man looked at the green ox and saw that it was twice as big as an ordinary ploughing ox, so he shook his head and said, "My boat can't cross your big ox." ”

Taishang Laojun said: "Then cross the two of us and let the cow float by itself." ”

After the master and apprentice got on the boat, the boat slowly sailed towards the opposite shore. Taishang Laojun chatted with the old man: "How is this year's harvest?" ”

The old man sighed and said gloomily: "The harvest is average, and it is enough to eat." It's that God has done a bad thing, and the people who make trouble are panicking. ”

Taishang Laojun hurriedly asked: "What bad thing did God do?" ”

The captain said, "God has a plague, rinderpest, and the cattle around us are dying for hundreds of miles." The big cattle I raised followed me for twenty years and died in one night. I have raised three calves, and I am afraid that I will not be able to escape this disaster! ”

The old man shed tears as he spoke.

Seeing this, Taishang Laojun felt very uncomfortable, comforted a few words, drew another talisman, and said to the old man: "When you go home, burn this talisman paper to ashes, stir it in water, and let the three calves drink it, maybe you can escape this plague." ”

The old man thanked him, and he was suspicious in his heart.

When they arrived on the west bank, the green cow also floated. The master and apprentice resigned from their old captains and led the green ox to the shore.

Just got off the embankment, but the green cow didn't leave. No matter how Taishang Laojun rushes, he just spins around in the same place, and he just doesn't move forward.

"Have you heard that the wind is the rain, and that you are also infected with the plague?" Taishang Laojun patted the cow's back and said humorously.

Tie Guan Li hurriedly touched the horns and ears of the cow: "It's okay, it's normal if it's not burned or hot." ”

Taishang Laojun: "What's the matter, you've been with me for more than 2,000 years, and you've never been like this?" "I want to ask the good luck and the culprit to see if the green cow has seen anything dirty.

But nothing was calculated.

"Does it have any thoughts?" Tie Guan Li reminded.

It doesn't matter what he said, Qingniu suddenly knelt down at Taishang Laojun, and tears flowed down his eyes.

The master and apprentice really became the second monk this time - they couldn't figure it out.

Taishang Laojun walked up to the green cow, patted it on the head and said, "You can't speak, if you have any requirements, let's make an analogy!" ”

The green cow stood up, ran a few steps, and took a few cow bones in his mouth. Then he used his front legs to pick up a north-south ditch, rushed to the Liangjiang River and shouted, and then put the cow bones horizontally on the ditch.

At this time, the master and apprentice all understood.

Tie Guan Li: "This is for us to use cow bones to build a bridge over the Qingliang River to commemorate those ploughing cattle who have contributed to mankind and lost their lives by the plague!" Then he asked Qingniu: "Are you right or not?" ”

Qingniu nodded.

Taibai Laojun twisted his beard and said with a smile: "Qingniu, Qingniu, you have given us a big problem!" What do you think, this cow bone is scattered everywhere, what kind of cultivation is it? ”

Qingniu looked at Tie Guan Li and drew a "eight" on the ground with his front hooves.

Taishang Laojun: "You mean, let the Eight Immortals help to repair?" ”

Qingniu nodded again.

"See it clearly," Taishang Laojun said to Tie Guan Li, "This is for you eight immortals to help cultivate." ”
