I glanced at the tumbling water in the Yao Pond and continued: "The Yellow Emperor left this ancient lacquer water knowledge to Yao and Shun when he became an immortal. Yao and Shun are a generation of holy monarchs, and the country is strong and prosperous under their governance, the politics are stable, and the people live and work in peace, which is a peaceful scene. But every how long, Shun is on the Luoshui River, watching the scenery with the ministers; Suddenly, he saw a big bird holding Bian Tu and putting it in front of him, and Shun hurriedly bowed down. Look at the bird, the shape is like a crane, the head of a chicken, the beak of a swallow, the neck of a turtle, the shape of a dragon, the wings, the tail of a fish, all five colors. The words in the picture are the six words of prudence, benevolence and righteousness, and benevolence. Shun had never seen this bird, so he went to ask the Yellow Emperor who became an immortal. The Yellow Emperor told him that the male of this bird is called a phoenix, and the female is called a phoenix. Before sunrise, it is called Dengchen, during the day it is called Shangxiang, in the evening it is Guichang, and at night it is Baochang. As soon as the phoenix comes out, it shows that the world is peaceful. It is a sign of great auspiciousness. Shun was overjoyed.

But every once in a while, Shun suddenly saw two dragons rushing out of a valley with a white picture and offering it to him. Shun Da was puzzled and hurriedly asked the Yellow Emperor. The Yellow Emperor replied that this was a precursor to the ancient lacquer water. So Shun and Tian Lao swam between the river and Luo, sank in the river, killed three animals and fasted. It started with three days of fog. After that, it rained heavily for seven days and seven nights. Then there were two yellow dragons holding the picture from the valley soared out, Shun hurriedly knelt down to take it, only to see that there was a valley on the map, and a long dragon spread out in the valley. Shun was overjoyed when he saw this, knowing that it was a mascot, so Shun traveled the world to find the valley in the picture.

After continuous searching, Shun followed the tips of the Yellow Emperor to temper the 'ancient lacquer water' when the Yellow Emperor became an immortal. After finding the ancient lacquer water, Shun saw that the terrain was as unique as the long dragon he saw in his dream, and his heart was overjoyed. At first, the ancient lacquer water was just a small point, and the valley water became bigger and bigger, and soon it was like a huge dragon rampage in the valley, and soon the dragon encountered a peculiar peak, majestic and majestic mountain, which was like a natural barrier in the east-west direction. The dragon was blocked in the valley, Shun was overjoyed to see it, thinking that the dragon was nothing more than that, but every once in a while, Shun found that there was a natural gap in the middle of the mountain, and the water dragon passed through the trickle to the trickle of water and gently flowed through the gap. However, when a catastrophic flood occurs, the water in the valley is blocked by the mountains, forming a whirlpool in the gap, and the rushing river overflows. There are seven strands and eight roads on the ground, and the ditches and ditches are full of ancient lacquer water, and the people have to move to a high place for a while. Seeing this, Yao convened a meeting of the tribal alliance to discuss the issue of water control. He consulted the leaders of the four tribes: Who should be sent to control the flood? The chiefs all recommend Kun. Yao doesn't trust Kun very much. The leaders said, "There is no one stronger than Kun now, so try it!" Yao Cai reluctantly agreed.

It took nine years to control the flood, but the flood was not subdued. He stole the soil of the Yellow Emperor and called Xi Xuan to grow on his own, and the Yellow Emperor knew about it, and was furious, and ordered the god of fire to put Kun to death, and before he died, he told his son to "be sure to cure the water".

At that time, there was a big mountain in the middle of the river, called Longmen Mountain. It blocked the path of the long dragon in the river, and squeezed the ancient lacquer water very narrowly. The ancient lacquer water rushing to the east is blocked by Longmen Mountain, and often overflows the valley, causing floods. When Yu arrived there, he saw this situation and knew that he only needed to dig a gap in Longmen Mountain to release the long dragon out of the valley, so that the ancient lacquer water in the valley could remain in the valley.

Tang Yi said: "In this case, how has the ancient lacquer water been passed down to this day?" I glanced at the white mist floating in the Yao Pond, and continued: "After the water was treated by Dayu, it did not attack again, and then somehow, the water slowly passed through the baptism of the heavens, and became like ordinary water, and then after Shun died, the emperor was passed to the meritorious Dayu who controlled the water, and Dayu wanted to pass the throne to the moral noble Qi, but he did not expect that Dayu's son Xia seized the throne of Dayu, and began to live in the world, since then the dynasties have been replaced from generation to generation, and there are five hegemons in the Spring and Autumn Period, Qin Huang Han Wu, Tang Dynasty and Song Zu, A generation of Tianjiao Genghis Khan has now had my Ming Dynasty, but after the ancient lacquer water was governed by Dayu, it was not able to start the world like his throne, and since then it has completely disappeared in the rivers and lakes, I didn't expect to see this ancient water here today! Tang Yi said: "I didn't expect that the old man could see such powerful water at such an age, which is really rare in his life!" I nodded, seeing that the water mist in the Yao Pond was getting bigger and bigger, I didn't dare to do more, and I unfolded the supreme light skill of the swallow's three points of water to break through the layers of white mist, and gently fell on the opposite bank of the Yao Pond, Lu Shuang saw that I came back safe and sound, and ran over with a smile on her face and took my hand and said, "How is it?" Have you figured out what kind of water this is? I was just about to answer, Tang Yi fell softly beside me and laughed twice: "I figured it out, it turned out to be the ancient lacquer water left by the Yellow Emperor in ancient times, who is extremely powerful and can melt the living in an instant, Brother Wu was killed by this ancient water!" Fu Bo sighed and said, "I didn't expect Brother Wu to leave!" Tang Yi saw that Fu Bo's lonely expression was touched, and gently walked over and patted him on the shoulder, Fu Bo nodded understandingly. At this time, the fog of Yaochi became thicker and thicker, slowly hitting the opposite bank of Yaochi, I was afraid of fraud, I didn't dare to stay more, and said with a worried face: "I think everyone should leave here as soon as possible, right?" Tang Yi nodded and said, "The old man always feels that there is weirdness here, and it is not suitable to stay here for a long time!" Fu Bo Lu Shuang looked at the tumbling water of Yao Pond and the rising white mist, Fu Bo shook his head lightly and said, "That's fine, at least you don't have to lose your head in the future!" Lu Shuang walked to the edge of Yao Chi, glanced at Yao Chi, sighed, and then took off a piece of jade from his neck and threw it at Yao Chi, only to hear a pop sound, and the piece of jade fell into the water in an instant. Soon he helped Fu Bo to walk towards me, raised his face and said, "Brother Tang, where are we going now?" I smiled and said, "Where can you go!" With that, he pointed to the throne that was not far away. Lu Shuang Fubo looked up at the throne, there seemed to be no figure on the throne, but there was a faint figure shining behind him. Like a ghost. At this moment, I found that there seemed to be a yellow jade dragon coiled on the throne, and under the illumination of the ever-bright lamp, the dragon's body suddenly shone brightly, and there was a billowing red light surging, like a real dragon flying in the air, it was not strange that what really attracted us was the first half of this dragon.

The dragon plunged headlong into the wall, and only a small part of the dragon's body, including the dragon's tail, was entrenched on the throne, and the dragon's tail and claws were resting on the back of the throne, looking a little lazy. Most of the front half of the dragon body is inlaid on the back wall of the throne with concave and convex waves, and the painting on the palace wall is integrated, so that the whole wall painting shows a strong sense of hierarchy, and the strange conception and the essence of craftsmanship have been transformed into a realm. People often say that "the dragon sees the head but does not see the tail", but the dragon on the throne and the wall is not the head of the tail, as if this hollow mercury jade dragon is becoming alive and flying into the mural.

The large mural combined with the dragon's body depicts signs of the eight immortals crossing the sea. In the painting, the fairy clouds are like the sea, the cigarette smoke is swirling, the continuous mountain peaks and palaces are looming in the clouds, and the clouds and mountains are full of agility. The red jade dragon raised its head towards the sea of clouds, the sky cracked a red gap, half of the dragon's head had penetrated into it, the dragon body was connected to the throne in the hall of the Lingyun Heavenly Palace, and a king was surrounded by all the courtiers, stepping on the dragon body, slowly ascending to the sky.

Lu Shuang pointed to the queen of the throne and said, "Could this be Emperor Taizu?" I squinted at the king and said, "Isn't it?" Lu Shuang was surprised: "Why is Brother Tang so sure that the person on this portrait is not Taizu?" I gently walked a few steps towards the portrait and squinted at it for a while before saying, "It is rumored that Taizu" has a majestic appearance and a strange bone. The ambition is clear, and people can't measure it" And the person on this portrait is dressed in a red robe, with a black scarf on his head, a pair of fairy bones, especially the lack of domineering in his eyes! Imagine that Taizu is the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and he is also the second monarch from a commoner background to unify the whole country after Liu Bang, Emperor Liu Bang of the Han Dynasty. He was born in troubled times, and at the age of 25, he participated in the Red Turban Army led by Guo Zixing to rebel against Meng Yuan****, and after Guo's death, he commanded Guo's department and served as the left deputy marshal of Xiaoming King Han Lin'er. Then with continuous promotions with military exploits, Longfeng was awarded the title of Duke of Wu in seven years, and Longfeng called himself King Wu in ten years. In the twenty-eighth year of Yuan Zhizheng, after defeating the remnants of the strong enemy Zhang Shicheng, Chen Youliang and sweeping the remnants of the Yuan, he proclaimed himself emperor in Nanjing, and achieved my great tomorrow. Just imagine, how can such a king complete such a majestic king's hegemony without that domineering? Lu Shuang Tang Yi nodded. Tang Yi sighed slightly: "However, there have been two portraits of Taizu in the folk, it is said that there is a kind of portrait, Taizu has a big face, kind eyebrows and kind eyes, sparse beard, white and fine face, wearing a dragon robe, good facial features, and dignified appearance; Another portrait, Taizu has long narrow cheeks, deep eyebrows, big ears and nose, thick beard, black pockmarks on his face, improper facial features, and ugly appearance! Could it be that this king may also be Taizu? I frowned and said, "No way!" Tang Yi hurriedly said: "According to the rumors in the rivers and lakes, when Taizu was called emperor, he summoned Danqing masters to paint portraits of himself. The first painter to enter the palace was very serious, and painted the portrait vividly, lifelike, and the same as a real person. When Taizu saw his ugly image, he was furious and pushed the painter out and beheaded him. After the second painter saw that the first painter was killed, he was afraid of being killed, so he pretended to be clever and painted Taizu as a beautiful man, a talent, with good facial features and a dignified appearance. But who would have thought that Taizu would be furious when he saw Deng, thinking that the painter was deliberately deceiving him, so he also beheaded the painter.

When it came to the third painter, the painter was an extremely smart person, and figured out Taizu's intention to be a saint, so according to the demeanor of Li Shimin, Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, and Zhao Kuangyin, Taizu of the Song Dynasty, Taizu was sitting in the painting, with a dragon robe and jade belt, a plump face, a kind demeanor, and an imperial atmosphere. As a result, Taizu saw that his face was full of kindness, with the appearance of an emperor, and his face was happy. Rewarded the artist! Maybe this self-portrait was painted by the same artist back then? I sneered and said, "Lord Tangbao, you may have forgotten Taizu's birth and all his experiences!" Tang Yi was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Then ask for details!" I nodded and said: "He was poor since childhood, his parents and brothers died of the plague, lonely, entered the Huangjue Temple as a small novice, in order to make a living in the temple all day long to clean the Buddha statues, entered the temple less than two months, because the temple rent is difficult to collect in the famine year, the temple owner closed the warehouse and dismissed the monks, Taizu had to leave his hometown for the traveling monks. Later, in the eighth year of Zhizheng, he returned to Huangjue Temple. He fainted from hunger several times and was rescued. Although he is hungry, he secretly observes the changes of the times; When the reign of the Yuan Dynasty was turbulent, he concluded that this was a great opportunity to produce heroes in troubled times, so he joined Guo Zixing's Red Turban Army and became Guo Zixing's personal soldier. Guo Zixing was kidnapped by the gangster Zhao Junyong, Taizu designed to pretend to be Guo Zixing's daughter Ma Xiuying to get married, took the opportunity to defeat Zhao Junyong, rescued Guo Zixing, Guo Zixing was moved, and married his adopted daughter Ma Xiuying to Taizu as his wife. Because Taizu treated the soldiers well, he led the soldiers to fight, made many military exploits, and his prestige became higher and higher, and many people with lofty ideals defected to his banner. Guo Zixing listened to the slander, to take all the soldiers under Taizu into his own possession, Taizu Tian retreated and forbeared, readily agreed, won Guo Zixing's trust, but also won the sympathy of the soldiers, after Guo Zixing died of illness, Taizu commanded this army, he treated the strategists well, enveloped the generals, and won the hearts of the people. At that time, there were several points in the world: Chen Youliang in the west, Zhang Shicheng in the east, and King Xiaoming in the north to fight against the Yuan army, Taizu then advanced to the south of the Yangtze River, and gradually owned Jianghuai, Huguang, Fujian and Zhejiang and other large lands, and he began to recruit wise men to seek great causes. At this time, the Buddha Nature Master recommended to him the "Four Sages of Zhejiang". After the army conquered Maozhou, some officers and soldiers began to fornicate, in order to stabilize the morale of the army, Taizu mistakenly killed the beautiful woman who was dedicated to himself - Su Tanmei, a talented woman in the south of the Yangtze River, thus setting off a crusade against him by scholars. In order to make up for his mistakes, Taizu was heartbroken, and resolutely set up a "sin monument" in front of Su Tanmei's tomb, repented frankly, and finally won the attachment of the "Four Sages of Zhejiang"; At this time, the rebel armies from all walks of life were surging, and they were called kings and hegemons, Taizu attacked the scheming, did not show his face, and humbly accepted the suggestion of the Buddha nature master to "build a high wall, accumulate grain, and slowly become the king", bow down to the king of Xiaoming in the north, concentrate on expanding his territory and team, wait for the opportunity, and never be arrogant.
