Chapter 301: Unexpected News

Now Taihao is trying his best to treat Qianqian, without distractions, and has forgotten everything Taiming explained. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

On this day, Taihao was collecting herbs for Qianqian as usual, and suddenly found that Taiyuan suddenly appeared in front of his house, so Taihao hurriedly went up to say hello. Taiyuan is not a person who is rigid in etiquette, and said to Taihao very happily: "Taihao, it's been good lately!"

Tai Hao nodded again and again, Taiyuan walked into the inner room with Tai Hao, and Taiyuan said directly: "Tai Hao, you must know that I have nothing to do when I come this time, I will not go to the Three Treasures Palace......

"Taiyuan, if you have anything to say, I will never give up if I can do it!"

"Okay, let's be honest, I want you to help me find someone, someone who has disappeared from the human world for a long time, but I know he's still alive!"

"Who is it?"

"Three Corpse Gods!"

"Three corpse gods?"

"Not bad......"

When the human world was first decided, there was a bad thing that was invisible to the human eye and psychic and possessed by three corpse gods.

These three corpse gods are playing with the rights and wrongs of the world and saying bad things about people all day long. The Three Corpse Gods had to go to the Heavenly Palace once a month to report to the Jade Emperor on the situation of people in the world.

However, these three corpse gods never reported to the Jade Emperor truthfully, and they said bad things every time. Either "Zhang San is lazy" or "Li Si is treacherous"; either "Wang Wu steals" or "Tieliu robs ......", he has never said a good word in front of the Jade Emperor.

As time passed, the Jade Emperor had a bad impression of people and wanted to punish them. But who to punish and how to punish the Jade Emperor was always undecided. He thought that if he completely believed in the situation reported by the three corpse gods, then there would not even be a good person in the world.

This year, the Jade Emperor heard the three corpse gods report one after another, and people were constantly cursing the Heavenly Court, and even had many disrespectful words towards the Jade Emperor. When he said this, the Jade Emperor was very angry, and felt that if he didn't punish people again, it would be too weak and powerless for Heavenly Court. So, he said to the Three Corpse Gods and Wang Lingguan, who was holding a steel whip, "Three Corpse Gods, you immediately go down to earth and conduct inspections from house to house, and write the names of all bad people who disrespect Heaven and do not obey the law on the wall. On the night of the New Year, Wang Lingguan went down to earth with a steel whip, as long as the bad guys with their names written on the wall, they were all killed, and no one was left. ”

The Jade Emperor's holy decree was broken, and Coke broke the three corpse gods. He returned to the world in high spirits, and without asking any questions, he went from house to house to write his name on the wall.

This appalling bad news was known by the stove princes of each family. The princes of the stove are kind-hearted, loyal, and are the main gods of the common people's families. So the princes of the stove gathered together anxiously to discuss how to relieve this calamity that was about to befall the people.

After discussing and discussing, they finally came up with a very ingenious way to protect the people and punish the three corpse gods: "On the day when the king of the stove was sent on the twenty-third day of the lunar month, the king of the stove of every household took great care of the people in the family, and made sure that they thoroughly cleaned and dusted the old dirt on the walls of the eaves during the day of the 30th day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, inside and out, up and down, until the old dirt on the eaves and walls was thoroughly cleaned and dusted to welcome the new year. The common people listened to the words of the king of the stove and happily cleaned the house thoroughly.

On the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, Wang Lingguan really came to the world with a steel whip in his hand. His eyes widened in anger, and he went from house to house looking for the names of the people written on the walls so that he could do it. However, Wang Lingguan searched all the way, and the walls of every house were clean, not to mention the names of the people, not even a little spider silk dust could be found, how did he know that the names of the people written by the three corpse gods, along with the dust, had already been swept away.

Wang Lingguan was originally a very hot-tempered god, and when he saw that he had found nothing, he was very angry, so he returned to Heaven and told the three corpse gods fiercely: "The three corpse gods have nothing to do and slander the world." There is no name written on the wall of the people's house. ”

The Jade Emperor was furious when he heard the news, and immediately sent an order: "Tie up the three corpse gods to the vestibule, beat three hundred boards, and then put them in the heavenly prison, never to be released." ”

But then by chance, the three corpse gods went down to the realm, and there was no news of him.

"Tai Yuan, such a sinister and cunning person, what is there to take advantage of!" Tai Hao said disdainfully.

"You are wrong, now our strength cannot enter the Six Realms more, so we can only make the Six Realms less quiet by some wicked people in the Six Realms through some wicked people in the Six Realms, and it can also be suitable for our development!"

When Tai Hao heard this, he replied directly without saying anything: "Okay, I'll do my best!" Tai Hao knew in his heart that even if he didn't do this himself, someone else would do it, and he would be too passive at that time, after all, he would always be a member of the Taigu clan!

Taewon laughed and was very happy.

Tai Hao saw Taiyuan smiling so happily, so he said: "Tai Yuan, I want to recommend someone for you, but this person has always been more upright, but his strength is very strong, it can be said that if you get this person, you can control the underworld......"

"Who is this person, and how can he have such a thorough ability?" asked Taewon curiously.

"The nemesis of the world's ghosts, the ...... of demons"

"Who the hell is it?"

"Zhong Kui!"

In troubled times, at the foot of Zhongnan Mountain, there lived a person called "Zhong Xuexue" Xiucai, although Zhong Xiucai studied hard, but his career was not smooth, and he had not been promoted in his fifties, so he had no fame. But his wife gave birth to a son because she dreamed that the stars in the sky were descending to earth. Zhong Xiucai loves his son very much, and named his son Zhong Kui according to his wife's dream, the meaning of this name is also obvious, that is, he pinned his life's hopes on his son, hoping that he would monopolize the Oiran in the future and win the top prize in the examination, so as to realize his life's ambition.

Soon after Zhong Kui was born, his parents passed away one after another, leaving him and his younger sister Mei'er to rely on each other. The brother and sister lived a very poor life. However, although Zhong Kui is very poor, he has high ambitions, he inherited his father's will since he was a child, studied hard, learned a full stomach of literary talent and martial arts, and wanted to be named on the gold list, glorify his ancestors, and do a great career.

Ten years have passed, Zhong Kui has grown up, Xiucai and Juren have easily obtained, and this year he can enter Beijing to participate in the Jinshi Hall examination. However, Zhong Kui's family is so poor that he has no entanglement, and he is about to delay the examination date. At this time, he happened to receive generous assistance from a kind man, Du Ping, who gave Zhong Kui twenty taels of silver. Zhong Kui was very grateful, and immediately rushed to the exam after taking the pan, determined not to go home until he took the Jinshi exam. Due to the rush and the hot weather, Zhong Kui accidentally contracted cold and fever on the way. He didn't dare to miss the exam date and live up to Du Ping and his sister's expectations of him, so he stumbled forward. On a dark and windy night, he came to spend the night in a ruined temple, and was encountered by a group of wild ghosts in the middle of the night. The wild ghost saw that he was extraordinary, talented and martial, and very jealous, so he beat Zhong Kui around, and beat Zhong Kui to the point that no one is a ghost or a ghost, but Zhong Kui himself didn't notice it at all, and only felt severe pain all over his body, but he still came to the capital to participate in the palace examination.

After all, Zhong Kui is a celestial star in the sky, and the article is extremely good, and he finally ranked first and won the top prize. But when the emperor's palace tried to summon the champion, he saw Zhong Kui's ugly face and ugly appearance, so he refused to name him as the champion. The ministers worked hard to admonish and fought hard for it. Zhong Kui also told the emperor about the adventures on the way. However, the emperor's mouth has been opened, and he will not change it.

Zhong Kui is a person with a very anxious personality, he saw that the emperor refused to be named the champion because of his ugly appearance, so angry that he shouted: "Surrender to me! Surrender to death!" After speaking, he hit the big copper tripod next to him desperately, and lost his life in one fell swoop. When the emperor saw such a fierce scene, he regretted it a little in his heart, and ordered Zhong Kui to be buried.

Besides, Zhong Kui's unjust soul came to the Netherworld Mansion with a full of resentment. As soon as he entered the Senluo Hall of the King of Hades, he pointed at the nose of the King of Hades and scolded: "You are the blue sky of the underworld, you should be just and selfless, why did you let the evil ghosts come to ruin my appearance, cause me to lose my fame, and let me have no face to see my poor sister and Du Ping who rescued me." The emperor of the world is not emotional, why are you so mediocre! What kind of world is this!"

The king of Hades didn't know what was going on, but he saw Zhong Kui not be able to say anything, and casually picked up a golden wolf's tooth stick on the Senluo Palace, and danced wildly on the Senluo Palace. This is amazing, this mace stick is not an ordinary wooden stick, this is the treasure of the town hall on the Senluo Palace, it was granted to the king of Hades by the Jade Emperor of the sky, as long as it is held in his hand, all the big ghosts and ghosts in the underworld, including the king of Hades, will not dare to close together.

Zhong Kui took this magic stick of the town hall, waved left and right on the Senluo Palace, and chased the big ghosts and small ghosts everywhere. Even the king of Hades was so frightened by him that he hurriedly retreated and hid. Later, Zhong Kui saw a big bell in the hall, rushed over and rumbled. It doesn't matter if you knock this one, this is the bell of Tongtian, and it will alarm the Jade Emperor in the sky as soon as it strikes.

The Jade Emperor hurriedly asked the Tai Bai Xing beside him. Tai Bai Xing pinched his fingers, and said to the Jade Emperor: "This is someone who is making trouble in the Senluo Palace, this person was originally a Tiankui Star in the sky, and now he is crying out in the underworld. So he told Zhong Kui about it from beginning to end. The Jade Emperor thought about it, back then, Sun Monkey was restless because he was disobedient to the control of the Heavenly Court, and now Zhong Kui is making trouble again, it is better to turn big things into small things and small things into small things.

He immediately summoned the king of Hades and instructed: "This Zhong Kui was originally a celestial star in the sky, and it is understandable that he has suffered a lot of grievances in the world to make trouble in this field." After you go back, according to my wishes, I will make him the general of exorcism, in charge of the big and small demons in the world, there is a Qingfeng sword here, you can transfer it to him on your behalf!"

The king of Hades received the will of the Jade Emperor and hurried back to the underworld. called Zhong Kui to him, conveyed the will of the Jade Emperor, and handed him the sword, and gave him a gourd that turned into a ghost as his magic weapon.

In this way, Zhong Kui became a god in charge of exorcism and ghost hunting in the world. However, what really made him famous was his revenge for virtue and revenge!

The emperor, who had driven him to death, dreamed of a ghost when he slept again: one foot was bare, the other was wearing straw sandals, and a shoe was hanging from his waist, and a broken fan was pinned to him. He saw the ghost go to the dragon's bed and steal the concubine's sachet and his own jade flute. When the emperor saw this, he had the audacity to scold. The little ghost smiled and said: "I am a little ghost named waste, and vanity means stealing other people's property for fun, and consumption is to reduce people's happiness and increase their worries, and turn people's good things into bad things." The Emperor was furious when he saw that it was so unreasonable, and was about to call the samurai to come and arrest the imp. Suddenly, I saw a huge ghost, holding a sword, with a gourd hanging from his waist, and his black boots, and without much effort, he grabbed the imp, broke it into two pieces, and stuffed the imp into a gourd on his waist. The Emperor was shocked and asked who he was. The big ghost said respectfully: "I am Zhong Kui, who has now been named the exorcist god of the world, and I am grateful to the emperor for his generous burial, and I have come to repay the emperor." When the emperor heard this, he felt very ashamed, so he sealed Zhong Kui.

In this way, when Emperor Tang Ming woke up, he was in a good mood, and since then Zhong Kui has become famous and has become a well-known exorcist god.

"I'm really going to meet this person, and it would be great if such a pillar of talent could be used by me. Taewon said to himself.

Taihao stood aside and didn't speak, after all, this matter has not been written yet.

"By the way, have you heard of the Five Exercisers?" asked Tae-won.

Taihao thought for a while and said, "I've heard of it, and I also heard that this fire messenger is the son of the third princess of the heavenly realm......"

"Really, do you know where this fire bringer is, and what is going on with this fire bringer, tell me more about it......

Taihao thought about it and said:

At first, the God of Smoke and the God of Fire were a husband and wife, the husband's name was Lei Leopard, and the wife's name was Yun Fairy. The hundred-year-old agreement between Lei Leopard and his wife is related to fire, which is also the reason why Lei Leopard was named the god of fire and Yun Fairy was named the god of smoke.

Once upon a time, there was a very powerful demon king, who was said to be able to call the wind and rain and conquer the mountains and the sea. But this demon king has a weakness, that is, fire! Because the demon king was once burned by fire when he touched fire, and this was the most impressive of the few injuries he was injured after becoming a demon king. The fire seems so weak, but it is so powerful! The demon king has a fear of fire in his heart.

In order to prevent people from using fire to assassinate themselves, and in order for himself to continue to dominate the world and do evil, the demon king made great efforts to receive the fire into his own demon palace. The Demon King even used a sturdy room in the Demon Palace to lock the fire, so that the fire had nowhere to escape, and could only survive in this closed room.

is also because of the domineering and tyranny of the demon king, and there will be no more fire in the world from now on. At this time, the people were miserable, everyone could no longer eat cooked food, they could only eat some stiff and cold food, and there was no hot water to drink, and even in the winter, they could only use cold water to survive. Many people have fallen ill and even died as a result. There is no longer a trace of vitality in the world, only a gloomy atmosphere.

The kind-hearted third princess in the Heavenly Palace was very surprised when she saw the miserable situation in the mortal world when she occasionally passed by. Because in her impression, the mortal world should be happy, healthy and happy, and it is by no means as lifeless and cold as it is now. The third princess was very surprised, so she went to investigate the matter, and after knowing the reason, she was very angry, and she was extremely resentful of the demon king's selfishness and cruelty. So, the third princess decided to go to the Demon Palace to see the Demon King in person, take back the fire, and return people to a warm life.

The third princess was about to hit the road when she suddenly thought of her third son, Lei Leopard. Lei Leopard is an adult, and his martial arts training is also good, but he still lacks experience. So the third princess decided to give this task to Lei Leopard, hoping that he would be able to grow up in the process of fighting the demon king.

Lei Leopard received his mother's order, and confidently promised that he would definitely be able to take the fire back, and if he didn't take the fire, he would never return to the Heavenly Palace. With that, Lei Leopard came to the mortal world with his own weapon, a silver spear. What made Lei Leopard worry was that he couldn't find any trace of the Demon King. Except to ask around in the human world, Lei Leopard has no other way. But most of the people in the world are mortals, and they only know that they can no longer make fire in their current lives, but they don't know the reason. Lei Leopard struggled to find it, but there was no progress.

On this day, Lei Leopard came to a small river and happened to see a grandmother who fainted on the riverside. Lei Leopard hurried over and found that the grandmother was overtired and lacked nutrition before fainting. So Lei Leopard hurriedly used a spell to wake up Grandma and carried Grandma home. Grandma's children have all died of illness due to eating raw and cold food, and now she is the only one left, and her health is still very bad, Lei Bao can't bear to leave the old man, so he stays to take care of Grandma.

There has been no news from the Demon King, and Thunder Leopard is tired of his hopeless search. In Grandma's house, the two of them depend on each other like mother and son, and Lei Bao also recognized Grandma as a godmother. The ordinary life made Lei Leopard gradually forget his mission to find the Demon King to regain the fire.

It wasn't until three years later that the godmother saw that Lei Leopard was getting older, so she decided to marry him a wife. So, Grandma asked Lei Bao to go to Dongshan to find Grandpa Lei, she said: "Grandpa Lei knows a lot of people, and he will definitely be able to help you find a good daughter-in-law!"

When Lei Bao heard that his godmother was going to marry him a daughter-in-law, he remembered his identity as a god and also remembered his mission to come to the mortal world, and he couldn't help but feel ashamed: How could he forget such an important task so easily? Do you want the people to live so hard all the time? So Lei Bao declined the kindness of his godmother and said: "Godmother, I understand your intentions, but I am a god, and I came to the mortal world to help everyone find fire." The task is not completed yet, how can I think about marriage first?"

When the godmother heard this, she smiled slightly, and said: "Silly boy, the godmother understands! But you don't delay looking for fire when you get married! Find a good daughter-in-law, let her take care of you, wouldn't it be better to find fire with you? Go, your grandfather Lei is well-informed, and he will definitely be able to help you." ”

Lei Bao still wanted to say something, but looking at the expectant smile on the godmother's face, he had to nod and say, "Okay, I'll go now, I'm not here, you have to take care of yourself." Seeing that the godmother lovingly agreed, Lei Leopard took his weapon and set off for Dongshan. However, Lei Leopard is by no means to let Grandpa Lei find a wife for himself, not to mention that he should not marry a woman in the mortal world, he is because his godmother said that Grandpa Lei is well-informed, and hopes that Grandpa Lei can give him some news about the Demon King.

After a long journey, Lei Bao finally came to Dongshan and found Grandpa Lei. Grandpa Lei's hair and beard are snow-white, but he is in good spirits and looks very wise. Lei Leopard looked at Grandpa Lei, and finally kindled a little hope again. He hurriedly greeted Grandpa Lei: "Grandpa Lei, hello, my godmother asked me to come to you, I hope you can help me and tell me some news about the fire and the demon king who locked the fire." ”

"Huh?" Grandpa Lei looked at Lei Leopard with a smile, and after a long time, he asked, "Your godmother really asked me to give you some news of the Demon King?"

Although Grandpa Lei looked like a Maitreya Buddha, his eyes made Lei Leopard's heart weak, and he had to tell the truth: "Grandpa Lei, I'm sorry, I shouldn't lie." Godmother asked me to come to you, I hope you can help me find a good daughter-in-law. But I promised my mother that I would find the Demon King to recapture the fire, and if I couldn't even do what I promised, how could I marry a wife? ”

"Oh!" Grandpa Lei stroked his beard and pondered for a while before he looked up and said to Lei Leopard, "In this way, you go to the backyard first, there is a bamboo forest, you have to climb every bamboo, and you have to climb to the top, and you are not allowed to be lazy and slippery." If you can do it, I'll tell you something. ”

Lei Leopard was a little helpless when he heard this, but there was no better way, so he had to come to the backyard and start climbing bamboo. There are a lot of bamboos, but in order to fulfill his promise, Lei Bao cheered himself up so that he could persevere. It took nine full days for Lei Leopard to finally climb all the bamboos. The exhausted Lei Leopard hurried to find Grandpa Lei, expecting Grandpa Lei to give him some hints.

Grandpa Lei smiled and said, "The young man is good and has perseverance. To-morrow at noon you go to the lake in the west, where there is a big tree, and there will be some clothes hanging on it, and you take one of the pink ones, and then sit down on the slope behind the tree and wait for the person who asks for clothes. Seeing that Lei Leopard was a little puzzled, Grandpa Lei laughed and said, "The secret of heaven must not be revealed, listen to me, go ahead!" Lei Leopard had to go back to rest sullenly, waiting for the arrival of the next day.

At noon the next day, Lei Leopard came to the lakeside in the warm sunshine. There was indeed a big tree here, and it took a long time for Lei Leopard to find the clothes that were placed among the dense branches, and he took the pink one and was about to leave, when he suddenly heard a laugh like a silver bell. The laughter was crisp and tactful, and it came from the lake, and the curious Lei Leopard couldn't help but watch, only to find that there were several beautiful women bathing and playing in the lake. The women probably didn't expect to be spied on, and they all had a great time. Lei Bao immediately figured out that these clothes must have belonged to those beautiful women playing in the water. He knew that he shouldn't have seen or stolen people's clothes, but thinking that this might be the only clue to find the Demon King, he gritted his teeth and hid with his clothes on the slope behind a tree.
