Chapter 124: The Queen's Legend
"Oh, it turns out that there is such a twisty story, it's really interesting. I'm just curious, with my appearance, what kind of official position can I get, Master, let's go into the palace and have a look?" Wen Tianshu blinked his eyes, and asked Sanzang for instructions with a look of fascination, with such a resolute look, it was true that nine cows couldn't pull it back.
Wukong shook his head and said resolutely: "Don't make trouble, Tianshu, we are still in a hurry, how can we have time to participate in any competition, you don't really want to be an official in your daughter country, right?"
Tianshu stood at the moment, pouting and refusing: "I don't have this plan, I just want to see what kind of appearance the senior officials of the daughter country are, how they compare to me?" Senior brother, you just let me go, if you want to stop me again, I can expose the master's little thing to you, see how you live in this Xiliang daughter country?"
If a woman's curiosity is not satisfied, she can really do anything, the monkey was so frightened that she broke into a cold sweat, covered her mouth and whispered: "Damn, Master, what can Master do? My aunt and grandmother, this matter is very important, you can't mess around." Okay, I'm afraid of you, can't we go to the palace just now? Damn, it's really not a wise choice to stop a woman from being more beautiful. ”
"Hehe, it's good that you know, in fact, don't we have to get the three thousand taels of silver, what's the big deal about going to the palace by the way. Okay, don't be discouraged, I don't have the slightest interest in being an official, it's just to satisfy my curiosity. The trick succeeded, Wen Tianshu was in a good mood, and said with an expression on his face that he was cheap and obedient.
"Well, it's hard to say, you want to see the wealth of our officials, and you don't want to leave if you are afraid of it. In this case, the lord of this county will tell you about the rules of the evaluation, this ordinary evaluation is verified by the officials, but all those who are outstanding in character and glamorous will give you a certain grade, and on the 15th of August, the officials above the Taishou will be evaluated with Her Majesty, and the one who can surpass Her Majesty in appearance and appearance is the new king of my Xiliang daughter country. Like a nobleman's appearance, enough to participate in the queen's selection, I came today, I'm afraid it's too early. The county lord of Yunyang smiled and said that he was very optimistic about Wen Tianshu.
"Oh, so you're changing kings every year, too often. Sun Wukong scratched his head with an expression of disbelief.
"Yes, these are the rules handed down by the sixth ancestor of Chuangye when he was alive, and they have not changed for thousands of years. When the sixth ancestor came to the west bank of the Tongtian River, all kinds of wastes were waiting to be revived, and talents withered. In order to reproduce as quickly as possible, each ancestor took turns drinking the water of the Mother River to raise offspring, even the first ancestor who was the chief was no exception, and once a woman had a child, she needed to spend many days recuperating, unable to be distracted from the affairs of the clan, so she had to choose someone else to govern on her behalf, and this rule was passed down until the population multiplied, and the tribe developed into a state, and the leader became a queen, but the rule of one election of the year did not change in the slightest. Although this rule is weird, it also has its fair and equal side, as long as the former queen is well maintained after childbirth, he can participate in the competition and re-ascend the throne of the queen. It seemed that he knew that they had this question, and the county lord of Yunyang smiled and spoke eloquently.
"I see, although this method of choosing a king is peculiar, it is quite fair and advanced, and it is really not easy to occupy the throne for a long time. Tianshu muttered thoughtfully when he heard this.
"The noble man said this very true, but there are exceptions to the biased things. Now, my lord, His Majesty Lin Miaohua, has been the daughter of the king for two hundred years. ”
"Being the daughter of the king for two hundred years?well, this thing is unusual, how can ordinary people live for two hundred years and have an unfailing face, could it be that she is a monster?"
"No, Her Majesty is not a monster, but a born living bodhisattva. The reason why she has not looked old for two hundred years is because when she ascended the throne, she led hundreds of officials to the Taimiao Temple to pray for the blessings of the people, and suddenly thunder fell from the sky, attacking the Taimiao, and the thunder and fire spread in front of the ancestral hall, and the smoke was billowing out. Her Majesty did not avoid the hardships and dangers, stepped forward, and entered the main hall alone to drag out the statue of the sixth ancestor of the founding country, but unfortunately was struck by a lightning bolt and fell to the dust. At that time, all the officials were frightened, you must know that this is a thunder from the sky, if you are hit, how can you still be alive, but also Her Majesty the Queen's blessing to the sky, the gods and Buddhas blessed, although she was struck by thunder and lightning to stand on her hair, her whole body was scorched black, not only unharmed, but made her eternal youth, her face is not old, and she has lived for two hundred years and is as beautiful as a woman of Fanghua 28, so that she can enjoy the throne of her daughter king for 200 years, and no one in the country can compare with her beauty, this may be a tribute to her original dedication to the country, right?" When the lord of Yunyang County said this, his envy and reverence were overflowing, and he really wished that she was the one who was struck by lightning in the first place.
"Well, it's really a rare thing that you won't die after being struck by lightning, and you can still be young and old forever, but it's not impossible. Sun Wukong pondered for a long time and nodded heavily.
"The miracle is far from being the case, since Her Majesty was struck by lightning, her body began to have mana appearing, and for two hundred years, she has done a lot of good things for the country and the people. In some parts of the country, the people have also built shrines dedicated to her, and they have been worshiped for generations, which is the most noble praise for Her Majesty's virtue and benevolence. "The mouth of the lord of Yunyang County is like a river, one board and one glance, and he tells it eloquently.
"Oh, what a feat Her Majesty has accomplished, and it is rare that the people should be allowed to build a shrine for her. "Sun Wukong knew in his heart that he could actually have mana after being struck by thunder and lightning, and this kind of trick was only suitable for deceiving ignorant people, but how could he hide my grandson's eyes? According to the experience of this great sage for many years, this queen is definitely a monster, and things seem to be getting more and more interesting.
"This master is really insightful, this matter is a long story, it should have been two hundred years ago. Thirty miles away from the south of my daughter's country, there is a Jieyang Mountain, there is a broken hole on the mountain, there is an ancient well in the cave to produce a kind of fetal spring, if someone eats the water of the Zimu River by mistake, drinking this spring water can knock out the flesh and fetus, it is really a godsend, Zebu is the people of my daughter's country, you can have the right to choose your own birth. I don't want to come to a Taoist called Ruyi Zhenxian in a few years, and built a Juxian Nunnery on Xie Yang Mountain, and occupied the fetal spring, and refused to give it easily, but there are seekers, you must get a red gift, a sheep wine fruit plate, incense and worship, and sincere dedication, so you can give a bowl of spring water to dispel the fetal gas. For this reason, there are little girls in the country who have accidentally eaten the water of the Zimu River, just because the family has no money to give a bonus gift, and there are countless people who have died in childbirth because they have no money at home, and they cannot get the spring water to eliminate the flesh and fetus. ”
"Although the people in the country have complaints, they have no choice but to have strong demon spells, calling for wind and rain, scattering beans into soldiers, and several generations of queens have led troops to attack, all of them have lost their armor and returned with feathers. Maybe it is the heavens that pity the daughter country, a hundred years ago my lord Miaohua was born, led the army to beat the Ruyi true immortals, fled in a hurry, demolished the Juxian Nunnery into ruins, and recaptured the foetal spring, which is really a great cause for the benefit of the common people, even if it is not an exaggeration to build a temple. Speaking of this past, the eyes of the county lord of Yunyang were full of reminiscences, and he suddenly returned to the era of the golden iron horse.
"Oh, there is such a thing, but I don't know if that person is a man or a woman?" Wukong smiled when he heard this, and his face was full of evil.
"Well, but it's a man, so what?" Seeing the monkey smiling ****, the county lord of Yunyang sneered slightly and asked rhetorically.
"That's the queen of your family, since the magic power defeats him, it's better to capture him back and have a bunch of male babies with you, wouldn't it break the curse?" I saw the monkey shaking his head and pretending to be profound.
Just when she led the army to capture the Ruyi True Immortal alive, a six-foot-tall rooster suddenly fell from the sky, and flew into the formation of the two armies, and immediately frightened Her Majesty the Queen, who had high morale, and even ignored the thousands of soldiers who sacrificed their lives on the battlefield, and galloped back alone. You think this is a battlefield of confrontation of 10,000 people, once the thousands of troops and horses lose their commander, it is like a person with a severed head, confused, at a loss, such a chaotic scene was seen by the Ruyi True Immortal, and immediately the Jedi counterattacked, leading the remnants of the forces to kill the soldiers of our army to lose their armor, flee in all directions, and recapture the understanding of Yangshan. The county lord of Yunyang shook his head and sighed with a sad face.
"Oh, this is really strange, a peerless heroine who gallops on the battlefield is invincible, and is afraid of a big rooster, this is too exaggerated, isn't it? Although the chicken is indeed a bit outrageous, it is not that much, right?" Wen Tianshu was dumbfounded when he heard this, and he said with a look of disbelief.
"Yes, this sudden defeat shocked the whole country, and the whole country was in a panic, and they were all speculating about why Her Majesty was afraid of a big rooster? It turned out that Her Majesty the Queen encountered a big rooster when she was a child, and was chased all the way and pecked the back of her hand, which fell into a psychological shadow. When the county lord of Yunyang said this, he sighed and was full of regret.
