Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Origin of Taoist Manifestations

............

Driving the carriage, running all the way, stopping for a while when passing through Baiyun Town, Li Xiuwen said that he wanted to go home to get the money, so he waited for a while, and when he arrived in Qingyun County, it was already midnight. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

found an inn, the two opened a room separately, Ye Ming planned to finish the matter and return home sooner, but Li Xiuwen mentioned that he would take him to the Putuo River to enjoy the scenery.

"Brother, do you know, this Putuo River flows from west to southeast, passes through four continents, and finally joins the South China Sea in Qingyun County, and there are many teahouses and brothels along the coast, which is the most prosperous place here, since you are here, if you don't go to see, wouldn't it be a pity?"

Ye Ming didn't have the heart to go out with him, and roughly guessed his plan, so he said: "If it's suffocated, you can go by yourself, I will go to the academy alone to see that Master Li." ”

"Eh, brother, don't!" Li Xiuwen hurriedly said: "At this time, the academy has already finished class, and Master Li and the others should have already gone home, I'm afraid it will be a lot of disturbing to go now, so it's better to go again tomorrow." ”

"Brother Fool doesn't want to take you to drink flower wine, I have already quit that thing, this time I want to take you to the Dengxian Tower to see, if you are lucky, maybe you can meet Master Li." ”

Hearing him say this, Ye Ming was a little interested, since the academy has finished class, and now he can't find Li Fuzi, since it is possible to meet him in Dengxian Tower, then he might as well go and take a look.

After that, the two set off, crossed a few streets, came to the street by the Putuo River, walked forward for a while, and saw a six-story building in the distance, Li Xiuwen couldn't wait to introduce it.

"Brother, listen to me, that is the Dengxian Tower, when the King of Zhennan met the immortals here but didn't know, it was really impressive. ”

Li Xiuwen shook his head and said, "Don't look at this building, it's only within a county, but it's the most famous in the entire Fushan City, and even the entire Great Heaven Dynasty. It has a total of six floors, the building is carved and painted, the layout is very delicate and elegant, the foolish brother once came once, a meal cost nearly a hundred silver, and it is not cheap, but fortunately, it is worth the money, and it is not a loss. ”

Speaking of money, Li Xiuwen was a little proud, shaking his head, as if others didn't know that he was rich.

The reputation of Dengxian Tower is quite widespread, and in his memory, Ye Ming has also heard of it, but he is just a down-and-out scholar, and he can't afford to come to such a place at all, so he has only heard of it, but he has never really seen it.

Now standing not far away and watching, it really has a bit of taste, the sunset is reflected on the lake, sparkling, some dim light will be this building a river blending, it is indeed some charm.

According to legend, the king of Zhennan returned triumphantly, and the path was here, and the general was feasted here, and there was a sloppy Taoist who planned to fast, but was stopped by the soldiers.

The Taoist priest was not annoyed, he smirked and sat on the ground outside the restaurant, and then attracted many beggars, saying that he wanted to invite them to dinner.

Although the king of Zhennan was killed on the battlefield and was bloody, he was also quite benevolent, and only the enemy died under his hands, but he never killed any innocent people.

This Taoist priest is not guilty, the king of Zhennan will definitely not kill him, those soldiers know the temper of the prince, so they can only let the Taoist priest spread wild outside, and did not go up to ask. But who knew that the sloppy Taoist priest suddenly conjured a pocket out of thin air, and then continued to take out exquisite dishes from it, and there was still hot air on it, and at a glance, he knew that it had just come out of the pot.

Those soldiers have been on the battlefield for a long time and have a good military quality, and they are not too exaggerated on the surface, but they are shocked in their hearts, and the beggars around them are also applauding loudly, looking at the plate of hot dishes, where will they care how he came from, and they will rush to rob them.

And just when they were surprised, the restaurant shouted, saying that the meal just made for King Zhennan was gone, and the effort to turn around was all gone.

Only then did the soldier react, and hurriedly stepped forward to capture the Taoist priest, but the Taoist priest did not resist, and let them arrest him, and then he was taken to the king of Zhennan and waited for the prince to fall.

The sloppy Taoist priest was neither humble nor arrogant, saying that he heard that the king of Zhennan was holding a banquet here, and he had no good gifts to give him, so he could only offer a pot of turbid wine for everyone to enjoy, so that all the generals should not be polite, and they must be drunk before resting.

When the soldiers present saw his sloppy appearance, they were a little crazy, and they were furious in their hearts, and they scolded them on the spot, and some people even picked up weapons and wanted to come forward to behead him, but in the end they were all stopped by the king of Zhennan.

He asked: "This king's banquet here is just a whim, if it is not passing through this place, all the soldiers are a little tired, this king will not stop here, where did you, the Taoist priest, know that this king has a banquet here?"

"Foolish, I didn't expect it to be right. The sloppy Taoist priest laughed, took out a pot of wine from the cloth bag, and said, "King Zhennan, how about you taste the taste of this wine first?"

"Wait. King Zhennan stopped the Taoist priest from pouring his wine and said, "Since you are so good at calculating, it is better to calculate it for this king!"

"There is!" Wang Ye's words were undoubted, and the sloppy Taoist priest did not refuse, he pinched his fingers, then smiled, but said with a trick: "If the prince wants to know, why don't you give a glass to the generals here?" ”

As he spoke, he poured it full for the prince, and then handed the wine jug to others, but the prince said with some displeasure: "This king hasn't said what he wants you to count, how can you say it's okay?"

The sloppy Taoist priest was not afraid, and said: "The prince will know after drinking, I will not deceive you." ”

"Okay, if you make a mistake for a while, this king will cut you under the sword on the spot!" As he spoke, King Zhennan motioned for everyone to pour wine, but this small wine jug could not satisfy the wine glasses of the dozens of people present at all.

But how could they have imagined that when the jug of wine was poured down, everyone's glasses were full, but the jug was still full.

Seeing this scene, everyone present was surprised, and even the king of Zhennan changed his opinion of the Taoist priest and became extremely reverent, and even said that he would worship the old Taoist priest as a teacher and learn spells, so that he could make more achievements on the battlefield in the future!

The sloppy Taoist priest laughed and said, "The prince will definitely be unreachable in the future, no one can compare with him, but he has no relationship with the Daomen." ”

After that, I only heard a sharp chirp outside the window, a white crane soared above the river, the sloppy Taoist priest walked to the window, jumped out, landed directly on the white crane, and said: "I have finished calculating the poor road for the prince, and I have said everything that should be said, so understand it yourself!"

At this point, he floated out on the white crane, leaving everyone present, dumbfounded, all unable to believe what they had seen.

King Zhennan lowered his head and thought secretly, it is unspeakably expensive, no one can compare, could it be that this Taoist priest really saw what this king was thinking?

Since then, not many days later, the emperor of the dynasty suddenly fell ill and died, because he had no heirs, and finally the emperor's younger brother Zhennan Wang ascended the throne, which also confirmed the sloppy Taoist priest's sentence, which is unspeakably expensive and unmatched.

When the emperor of the dynasty is the true dragon son of heaven, who can compare with the ordinary people in the world?

This was already 500 years ago, and it was at that time that Dengxian Tower became famous, and after King Zhennan became emperor, he began to support Taoism and suppress other religions, and Taoism began to manifest at this time.

In the hearts of the people, this may just be a legend, a handle after dinner, but Ye Ming knows that these are true.

He still remembered that Aokiko once said to him that the reason why Taoism was able to manifest sainthood was because his master, Ye Ming's master, had revealed his spells in front of the emperor, and Aokizi should be referring to this matter.

"I didn't expect my master to have such a character, no wonder my cheap master would be so virtuous, worthy of being a master and apprentice!"

Ye Ming thought in his heart, and couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle.
