The view name is Yuchen, and the mountain name is Qinghua.

In September, the order belongs to the three autumns, the water is exhausted and the cold pool is clear, the smoke is condensed and the twilight is purple.

A few scholars of extraordinary bearing walked together and walked along the mountain road.

Purple smoke emanates from the depths of the peaks.

One of them, a scholar in Tsing Yi, was poorly dressed and unkempt, in stark contrast to the rest of the richly dressed scholars.

"Brothers, I don't know how far we are going to Taiyi Peak?"

"King Bin, don't be in a hurry, among the peaks in front of you, the one that stands out is Taiyi Peak." The scholar who spoke was richly dressed, and there was an elegant and noble temperament between his eyebrows.

His surname is Cui, his name is du, and he is from Qinghe County with the man who questioned him, but he is from a different county. But he had heard the other party's name, remembered that he had worked as a knife and pen officer in a neighboring county, and he met on the road, and knew that the other party had come to Chang'an to try his luck and seek fame, so he took a ride.

But his understanding of the man with the word "bin wang" is limited to these.

I followed him all the way, but I found that this man was acting strangely.

In the face of these families, they are quite uninhibited.

Cui Du is open-minded, and for the sake of being a fellow Qinghe County, he doesn't care much. Others are a little overwhelmed.

"Brother Ma has been a scribe anyway, when he has knowledge, he doesn't even know Taiyi Feng?" There is a scholar surnamed Liu who ridiculed.

Taiyi Peak of Qinghua Mountain, once named after the worship of Taiyi God in the Han Dynasty. During the Wei and Jin dynasties, metaphysics flourished, Taoism developed rapidly, and ancient god sacrifices declined. I don't know when Taiyi Peak raised a Taoist temple.

Because the mountain road is really difficult to walk, the world was in chaos at the end of the Sui Dynasty, and the Taoist priest went down the mountain.

It has been abandoned for ten years.

Cui Du didn't want everyone to quarrel, "King Bin is coming to Chang'an for the first time, and it's normal not to recognize the famous Taiyi Peak." What's more, the mountain road in the second half of Taiyi Peak was blocked by a flash flood many years ago, and I heard that even the incense of the Taoist temple in the mountain has been cut off for ten years. Let's rise up together, visit Taiyi Peak, don't quarrel, bad mood. ”

The scholar surnamed Liu muttered, "Who told him to eat and drink along the way and never pay for it, and he was not ashamed to say that he had a talent for helping the world." ”

"This peak looks very close, but we are going to reach the peak, I'm afraid we have to go tomorrow." The young man surnamed Ma didn't care about the words of others, and took care of himself.

"King Bin doesn't know, there is an inn on the mountainside, we can go and rest when we arrive, and then see if the mountain road behind is difficult to walk." Cui Du explained.

"I'm afraid that Brother Ma is worried that there are sneaks in the mountains, so he doesn't dare to walk at night." The others pressed their swords and laughed.

Autumn colors are already very.

A group of people forward, you can see mountain springs everywhere, and you can hear the waterfalls from time to time. This mountain road is easy to walk, and everyone visits the scenery endlessly, and it will not take long to arrive at the mountainside inn that Cui Du said.

It's twilight, and night is not over.

The inn is built on a platform on the mountainside, and it is also a restaurant, built with thatch. The form is quite ancient. The young man surnamed Ma stopped outside for a moment, his face a little hesitant. Then he walked in.

When everyone entered the inn, Xiao Er came up to greet them.

They ordered the clear spring wine in the mountains, seasonal game and vegetables, and cut a few catties of mutton and served a fat chicken.

Cui Du praised, "I didn't expect the mountain restaurant to be able to come up with these foods." Chang'an seems to be about to return to its former prosperity. ”

At the end of the Sui Dynasty, the population of the world withered, and all kinds of ruins were waiting to be revived.

Three months ago, the change of Xuanwumen, Emperor Zhenguan ascended the throne, summoned the world's talents, so the scholars who came and went to Chang'an were endless. So that this thousand-year-old capital will be revitalized.

The crowd drank wine and ate meat, drunk and hazy.

Looking at it from a distance, the purple qi of the Taoist temple in the depths of Taiyi Peak became more and more intense.

Today there is a bright moon shining on the earth.

Even though it was night, it was not much worse than the day.

"Brother Ma, the purple qi rising in that Taoist view is not the manifestation of the gods in the temple. Today's Chongdao, Brother Ma might as well invite the gods in the temple to drink here, and the gods will not be able to show you a clear way, lest you arrive in Chang'an, and there will be no landing. The scholar surnamed Liu laughed.

The crowd followed suit.

"The ancients Yun Ye Gong was a good dragon. I'm afraid that I, Ma Zhou, invited the gods to come here, but you were scared and complained about me. Ma Zhou looked around at everyone.

"If Brother Ma really has this ability, we will not blame him."

"I don't have any money anyway, so I'll ...... then"

"Ask the gods to drink a drink, and they will not forget."

When everyone saw that Ma Zhou was really going to invite God, they became more and more coaxed.

They were drunk, and they saw the purple gas in the mountains, and they didn't know what was going on. I just want to see Ma Zhou make a fool of himself.

Ma Zhou then went out and disappeared in an instant.

And Cui Du also chased out.

On the mountain road, the moonlight is bright and the figures are clear.

"Brother Ma, I'll go with you." Cui Du arrived.

Ma Zhou smiled: "I know that Brother Cui will come out with me." ”

"We are all from Qinghe County, how can I watch you go to the mountain road alone at night, what if something happens?"

Ma Zhou shook his head, "Brother Cui doesn't know, let's come out safely." It's dangerous to stay here. Without further ado, let's go and ask the gods, otherwise the lives of those benevolent brothers will not be saved. ”

Cui Du was surprised: "How do you talk about this?" ”

"It's too late to explain this, let's go to the Taoist temple in front. In that view, the purple qi rises, and even if there is no god manifested, there will be strangers. Ask him to help him, so that he can save the catastrophe. ”

It turned out that Ma Zhou once met an old man and passed on his face-to-face skills. When he came to the store, he looked carefully and found nothing unusual. I think this inn should be fine. But when I was drinking just now, I found that everyone had a black face, and I felt something different in my heart.

This is the face of the coming catastrophe.

He saw the purple qi rising from the Taoist temple, and he thought that he could solve the calamity, but he could only go to the Taoist temple and invite the gods and spirits to do it.

He went on the road with Cui Du, and saw that the black qi on Cui Du's face had subsided a lot, but it had not completely disappeared, and he knew that this was because the people in the store had borne most of the robbery.

When they are robbed, Cui Du and he are afraid that he will not be spared.

Although these people laughed at him, there was no shortage of food and drink along the way, and Ma Zhou would not leave them and escape.

Originally, the mountain road was blocked, and it was very difficult to walk.

But the moonlight was bright, like a white veil, paving a way.

Ma Zhou and Cui Du walked on it, as if stepping on a soft white cloud, without the feeling of being slippery and steep. Soon arrived at the front Taoist temple.

The four words "Yuchen Daojun" are hung high on the plaque of the gate, and under the moonlight, it is old and mottled.

When I arrived at the main hall of the temple, it was desolate everywhere, and the cobwebs were messy.

The idol bears an ancient sword, flowing with the vicissitudes of time.

The statue on the shrine is a young Taoist image, dressed in black, the roof of the temple has broken a lot of holes, leaking the moonlight, shining on the shrine, you can see the dust under the statue covering a Taiji diagram.

Cui Du cautiously looked at the Taoist temple.

Ma looked around, didn't see the breath of other people, and turned around to look at the mountainside, the black gas was thick, as if there was blood. His heart tightened, so he strode to the shrine and bowed to the statue,

"Daojun, the Taoist temple in the mountains is bland, I invite you to drink in the world."

Thanks to the 5,000 coin reward of the snow from the east, and thanks to the lonely reward of the years of controlling the idealism and the scientists.
