Chapter 005: Receiving Treasure in the Cloud
Wangyun took his family and said goodbye to the guests, and he was going to go down to Huaxu Village and return to the Song City.
Zhike Taoist told him to wait, took out a burden from the inner room, called Wangyun aside, handed Wangyun with both hands, and gave it secret.
Saying: "Please smile." This is the old practice of Huaxu Palace, where the distinguished guests come, there must be a good gift. There is a gold-inlaid sandalwood box in the baggage, and inside the box is a mirror that reveals timidity, which is made of meteorite iron by the human queen Nuwa. ”
Wangyun was very surprised, and hurriedly pushed away: "Xiao Ke is immoral and incompetent, how can he accept this treasure." ”
Zhike Taoist Zhengse said: "Looking at the brother's look, he has a fairy demeanor, and he is the first surname in China, this treasure is related to you." Don't push it back, take it for the benefit of the peddlers. ”
Wangyun heard him say this, hurriedly took it with both hands, looked at the sky and kowtowed, and said: "Emperor Wa is above, Xiao Keyun temporarily receives this treasure." If you don't catch it, you will make it clear and return this treasure. ”
Wangyun took the gold-inlaid sandalwood box and hid it in his arms. After thinking for a while, he asked: "Dare to ask Brother Dao, what is the beauty of this cowardly Xuantian Mirror, and how to use it?"
Zhike Taoist said: "Whoever uses the treasure mirror, just silently recite what he wishes, one can restore the dreams of mortals, two can present mortal selfishness, and three can capture the true body of gods, demons and monsters." Whoever thinks too much, but do not take it lightly. If you open the treasure mirror in vain, you may be afraid of a disaster. ”
Zhike Taoist said again about the origin of the cowardly Xuantian Mirror.
This treasure mirror was obtained when Emperor Wa mended the sky. Emperor Wa mends the sky, and goes to Wuyue to pick five-colored divine stones. When I went to Zhongyue Songshan, I first looked for bluestone and no stone. Just happened to encounter this meteorite falling from the sky, and look at the Kunlun Mountain. Then next to a spring in Songshan found bluestone.
In order to make up for the sky, Emperor Wa took care of meteorites there. Hurriedly took the five-color divine stone and went to Kunlun Mountain to refine it for seven days and seven nights, refining the five-color divine stone into 36,500 pieces. Make up the day.
The task of mending the sky is completed, and I think of the meteorite falling from the sky. So standing in the high sky of Kunlun, the gods patrolled and found this meteorite. It feels exquisite and abnormal, and it is a treasure from heaven to grind it. It took eight days to use up eight grinding stones before it was polished.
The mirror is three inches six inches wide and four inches two high. Hide it on weekdays, don't let others steal it. When activated, it is extremely convenient to carry it into the inner pocket.
Later, he returned to the most holy Yi Zhi in the world and supported the business of Tang Foundation. Shang Tang worships him as Yin, the president's ministers. By the time Yi Zhixian died, the later Shang kings could not strictly abide by Yi Yin's teachings, causing internal turmoil in the clan. Emperor Wa took back the treasure mirror and placed it under the statue of Yi Yin in the Yuansheng Palace of Huaxu Mountain.
Wangyun nodded yes, but retreated. Zhike Taoist sent him out.
Looking at the clouds, I suddenly saw the sky above the Sanqing Hall of Huaxu Mountain, and the colorful auspicious clouds were floating, and I was greatly surprised, and pointed to the people who knew the guest and the Taoist. But there was no squeak. Hurriedly turned around to see where there were still Zhike Taoists.
I searched all over the guest hall, but I didn't see him. But when he asked the pilgrims inside, he said that when he saw the acquaintances going out together, there seemed to be a puff of green smoke rising up, and there was no longer a figure.
Surprised, Wangyun hurriedly came to the door, looked at the colorful auspicious clouds above the Sanqing Palace, turned over and bowed: "The disciple has eyes without beads, and he also hopes that the gods will be enlightened." ”
I didn't hear any response, I bowed a few times, and left in a daze.
Descending the mountain, I walked all the way to the Lishui mountain ferry, and took the boat to look down towards the song city.
When I arrived at the castle, it happened to be dark. The six went straight to Xitan City.
took out the Huaizhong Division City voucher and put the door inside. When I went to the dormitory in the city, I did it myself, and I ate some food, and everyone was full.
After dinner, the family rested in the city. Go around the courtyard by yourself. Look at the bamboo that exists, a little bit. I looked at the sky again, and it was very late, and I went to lie down with my wife and fell asleep.
Suddenly, the words of the Zhike Taoist sounded in the ear chakra: "The Spotted Bamboo God looks at the clouds and reveals the cowardly Xuantian Mirror, have you ever put it away?"
Shocked, Wangyun hurriedly turned over and got out of bed. My wife asked, "What's the alarm?"
Wangyun hurriedly responded: "Go to the toilet and solve it." ”
When he came to the courtyard, he saw the Zhike Taoist standing in front of him, with a pleasant face: "Come here with your ears, Xiaodao will teach you to use spells in the Xuantian Mirror." ”
The spell was taught, and the Zhike Taoist bowed to him: "Xiaodao said that it has the origin of your cowardly Xuantian Mirror." Xiaodao has been enshrined by the Emperor of the Great Sage since that year, and Laba worshiped Yi Xiangye. Yi Xiangye gave this treasure mirror to the trail to find the destined winner, who was exactly one hundred and eight years old now. ”
Looking at the clouds and looking at his demeanor again, sure enough, the fairy wind is bone.
I saw that he was dressed in a purple-clothed robe, carrying a bronze cane of the merchant burning the essence of the merchant on his back, holding the dust in his hand, and hanging an eight-treasure grain bag from his waist. Long hair and floating chest, excellent spirit, under the crown of the sky, the eyebrows are frosty white, just a backward eight characters.
Between the eyebrows, in the hall, there is a white mark the size of a jewel, and this white mark looks like a fish's head. This is called the Fish Leaping Heavenly Court.
Looking at the clouds and looking carefully, he knew that he had met the true god, and he was shocked: "Dare to ask the name of the god, Xiao Ke will burn incense and worship every day." ”
"Come and worship every day, but you don't have to. Xiaodaozi respects his father, and the Emperor of the Great Sage canonizes him as the god of Laba dealers. I hope you put away the treasure mirror, take it on the sixth day of the first month, and go to the Yixiangye Yuansheng Palace early, which has its own wonderful use. No mistakes. The god of Laba sold it, and suddenly flew up and entered the clouds.
Wangyun hurriedly knelt on the ground: "The disciple is enlightened by the god of the seller, he must be careful everywhere, and the god of the god is always reminded and reprimanded tightly." ”
He looked up at the starry sky, stunned.
Suddenly, my wife shouted in my ear: "Lao Wang, Lao Wang, what's the matter, I've never slept until noon." I can't wake up no matter how I shout. ”
"Daddy, Daddy, Daddy. Grandfather. "The eldest daughter-in-law, the second son, the second daughter-in-law, and the grandson are all calling him.
Only then did he realize that he had been dreaming for a long time.
Slowly open your eyes and yawn.
When the people saw him wake up, they were immediately happy, and the whole house was cheering.
Wangyun woke up, and his wife warmed the rice with him and ate a bowl.
I can't go out of the stall today, so I will take my family to Laba Club at will. For decades, I have been selling bamboo, watching stalls, and selling. I really haven't visited Labahui, and I don't know the whole picture.
When he arrived at Labahui, Wangyun took the family and children to shop and be happy with them. Think about your mind as you walk. What's going on on the sixth day of the first lunar month?
Isn't that the day when Changbuqu is going to set off a lot of firecrackers? How can the son of the Laba seller respect his father and master, so how can he also call the Yuansheng Palace on the sixth day of the first lunar month? Can these two things be stacked together?
It should be. Otherwise, how could it be so coincidental.
Changbuqu wanted to buy all his bamboos, and there were at least three hundred and forty sheaves in the city, and with the twenty sheaves that had already been bought, that was three hundred and sixty sheaves. Can he ask for so much?
With so many firecrackers, it must sound for at least a whole day.
Besides, twenty bundles will be used for him seven and five hundred wen, and three hundred and forty bundles, which can be nearly one hundred and twenty-eight yuan, which is equivalent to one hundred and twenty-eight taels of silver. With such a big expense, how grand should it be, and what kind of fame do you want to make?
Thinking about it, I went to the stall where I sold spotted bamboo again, and the spice Li Zhan, yes, I also knew not to let others occupy it. Go up and talk to Lao Li.
Spice Li took the linen cloth, wiped his face, and asked, "Chang Buqu came to ask again, see if you are allowed to come out of the stall tomorrow?"
"Yes, how can you not be allowed. Hey, Lao Li, this old man, you have also seen it, although he is sloppy, but he is not like that kind of demon and eccentric person. What kind of big deal will it be for him to set off so many firecrackers?" Wangyun couldn't help but ask when he heard that Lao Chang had come again.
"That's not accurate. Even the county lord will not set off so many firecrackers. Today, these vendors are guessing about it. If he comes again, I'll ask?" said Lao Li.
"Forget it, he should say it tomorrow. It's amazing. Lao Wang shook his head, and the housekeeper walked to the front, and followed.
On the morning of the twelfth day of the lunar month, Lao Wang's family carried and carried the bamboos to the ox cart. Or twenty bundles, no more, no less.
If Chang Buqu still wants it today, it is still so refreshing, so he simply took him to the city to see the goods. If you really want to buy it all, you won't have to spend it on the stall for many years. Go back to Longxi County early, clean up the New Year's food early, and let the old and young have a stop for the New Year.
The ox cart pulled twice, and twenty bundles of spotted bamboos were laid out. It is still an old stall designated by the city.
The stalls everywhere have not yet been set up, and the big-bellied Changbuqu, wiping his nose all the way, is here again. came up with the kind of long-lost look: "Oh, Lao Wang, how many bamboos do you have, I want them all." ”
When Lao Wang heard his tone, he really wanted it. He replied, "Bring these twenty sheaves, a total of three hundred and forty sheaves." Eight dollars for every twenty bundles of retail, you count. Such a large amount, all of which exploded, made people feel shocked, and I didn't dare to sell it. ”
