Chapter Twenty-Three: What a Good Poem
Liu Shang and the Tiger Pioneer were led by the old man of pen and ink to walk in Zhuangzi for a while, and then they saw a high platform.
This high platform is halfway up the mountainside, and there is a stone wall behind it, and from a distance, the stone wall seems to have been cut out with a sharp blade. There is a huge peng bird carved on the stone wall, like nine shadows spreading its wings, especially the pair of vivid eagle eyes, looking at each other for a moment to feel a breathtaking pressure rushing to the face.
The old man took Liu Shang and the Tiger Pioneer to the lower end of the high platform, hugged his fists and smiled: "Tiger Pioneer, little brother, the old man has to go to welcome other village owners, so I will leave first!"
After Hu Xianfeng and Liu Shang asked for help, they walked up to the high platform together.
Although the birthday banquet has not yet begun, the major village owners are like tiger pioneers, and they arrived early. The owners of the village sat at the table in front of them, chatting with each other, drinking the good wine of Moxuan Pavilion, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious for a while.
When all the village owners saw the tiger pioneer coming, they all stood up and greeted each other with fists. Although Chifeng Village is not the strongest of the villages, the Tiger Pioneer is definitely one of the strongest of the big village masters! Earlier, the owner of the Fengfeng Village said that the most promising of the major village owners in Niutouling is the Tiger Pioneer. Therefore, the owners of the village are still quite friendly to the tiger pioneers.
After the tiger pioneer greeted the owners of the village, he found the location of Chifeng Village and was about to sit down, when a provocative sound sounded on the opposite side:
"Tiger Pioneer, what treasures have you prepared for the birthday of the three kings this time?"
Liu Shang, who was following the Tiger Pioneer, looked up and found the black harrier who had just argued with the Tiger Pioneer at the bottom of the mountain, as well as the old bait behind him.
Before the Tiger Pioneer could speak, someone returned to him on the spot, "Black Harrier, isn't it the eldest brother who injured you back then and earned the title of pioneer? After so many years, you are still thinking about this matter, and your heart is like a pinhole! Besides, what gift does my eldest brother give, what does it have to do with you?"
Liu Shang glanced at the person who spoke, it turned out that he was also a tiger spirit, but it seemed to be a different species, not as yellow and black as the tiger pioneer, this guy was all black!
"Xuanhu, don't add more rights and wrongs! I'm talking about the Tiger Pioneer gift, what does it have to do with the old past?"
Liu Shang knew the cause and effect from the conversation between the two, and muttered a few words in the ear of the angry tiger pioneer, who nodded, and then hugged his fists and said: "Brother Xuanhu, the master of the black village, a little thing, don't spoil the interest of the three kings here." The so-called thousands of miles to send goose feathers, the gift is thin and affectionate, no matter what gift is given, it is just a heart. The three kings are wise, and they will definitely not make any calculations in this matter!"
Bang Bang Bang –
There was a slap, and then a handsome man in a Confucian costume and a scarf flew down from the sky. The man walked up to Tiger Pioneer, patted him on the shoulder and laughed heartily: "Ha Luha, I haven't seen you for a year, Brother Dashun can have such an awareness, not bad, not bad!"
When the villagers saw the men who appeared, they all half-bowed and clasped their fists and shouted in unison: "I have seen the three kings of the Mixed Heaven Demon Shengpeng!"
The handsome man is the three kings of Napeng. The three kings turned around and swept to the chair directly below Shibi Pengniao, picked up their sleeves with both hands, sat down, and said loudly: "All brothers don't have to be polite, sit down!"
"Thank you, the three kings!"
The three kings nodded and smiled, "Ha Lu Haha, thank you for giving me a birthday! Brother Dashun said very right just now, as long as you can come, you will give me face, a little outside the body, why bother with it!"
As soon as these words fell, there was a chorus of applause. Before the voice dissipated, a boy with sideburns suddenly appeared in the air, and the boy fell to the ground with a radiant spirit, and gave a salute to the three kings, "Liwen Shenweng wishes the holy life of the Heavenly Demon and Tianqi, and gives a colorful jade Ruyi!"
All the owners of the village were shocked, good guy, Liwen Shenwen! That is a famous master of the world, it is rumored that the queen of heaven has invited him to participate in the peach banquet has been refused, I can't imagine that the three kings of their own family can be better with such a person!
The three kings stood up and clenched their fists and smiled, "On my behalf, Xie Lu Xie Liwen senior! Mr. Bimo, hurry up and lead the little brother to rest!"
The boy saluted again, then turned around and followed the old man who walked forward towards the bottom of the high platform.
Seeing that the owners of the village were full of surprise, the three kings had a smile on their faces, and said with pride: "I had dealings with the predecessors of Liwen in my early years, and I don't want to work hard today to think about sending congratulatory gifts, it's really ashamed!"
Seeing this, the black harrier hurriedly stood up and walked out, "The three kings are so famous that they have given good gifts to characters like the Liwen Gods, which is really an eye-opener for us!"
"Brother Harrier is overrated. The corners of the three kings' mouths raised, but they pretended to be nothing, and then continued: "The eldest brother has no time to come here because he and the second brother are refining magic weapons together, so let me accompany the brothers for them, if there is spare one day, I will invite you to eat and drink!"
Before others could speak, the black harrier spoke again, "The three kings, like brothers and sisters, really envy others! The younger brother went to the East China Sea to visit friends the day before yesterday, and accidentally got a nine spirit bead, today coincides with the birthday of the three kings, so I want to borrow flowers to offer Buddha, give it to the three kings, as a birthday gift, and hope to smile!"
After that, the black harrier took out the things, and in the surprised eyes of the village owners, he proudly sent the beads to the three kings.
The owners of the village saw that the black harrier made the first move, and they all scolded secretly, and then rushed to offer their own treasures, what blood coral, nine turn pills and other treasures shook the whole high platform for a while!
Tiger Pioneer glanced back at Liu Shang anxiously, but the latter just nodded, indicating reassurance. The so-called good things are always the finale!
After the owners of the village finished giving the gifts, they returned to their respective places and sat down. The Black Harrier squinted at Tiger Pioneer before remembering that he hadn't left his seat yet. I guessed in my heart that this nerd must have seen Jiu Lingzhu and was afraid that his treasure would lose his share, so he didn't dare to take it out. So he spoke:
"I just heard the Tiger Pioneer say that there is a good treasure to be dedicated to the three kings in Chifeng Village, why is there no movement now? Tiger Pioneer, you also take out the baby, let me wait to see it, so that I can open my eyes!"
When the three kings heard the black harrier say this, they remembered what they had just said, and they understood. He couldn't be clearer about the one-acre and three-point land in Chifeng Village, except for hematite, he couldn't get his hands on it, and it seemed that there was nothing. This Hu Dashun is a typical rude man, how can he have any good treasures? I am afraid that this black harrier wants to make Hu Dashun ugly.
Thinking of this, the three kings were ready to fight Ha Lu Ha to expose the past, but Liu Shang, who wanted to be behind the Tiger Pioneer, walked out.
Liu Shang walked to the center of the high platform, saluted the three kings and the village masters, and then said: "Chifeng Zhai Xiao Zuanfeng Niu Si, I have seen the three kings and the village masters!"
When the demons saw Liu Shang come out, they all cast their eyes over.
As the saying goes, people look at three points of face. The three kings looked at Liu Shang's appearance and were a little happy in their hearts. Most of the monsters in Niutouling are uncivilized, and even those who have attained the Tao are mostly wearing fur and armor and do not know etiquette. This Chifeng Village's small drill style not only looks quite refreshing, but also the etiquette is also very thorough. The three kings nodded and smiled lightly, "Hehe, what is the matter with the little brother?"
"Niu Si is a gift on behalf of the Tiger Pioneer!" Liu Shang smiled calmly, and gently patted the gourd on his waist, and then a quadripartite flag with a length and width of dozens of meters suddenly appeared above the high platform, on which was majestically written Dou Da inlaid with gold characters: ...,
The King of the Mixed Sky Demon Saint Peng, his mana is boundless.
Who in the heavens and on the earth doesn't know, the bull-headed demons are high!
Wencai is like a Wenqu star, flying countless soldiers with one wing.
Gods and ghosts are unscrupulous, how many immortals and Buddhas are stronger than him?
King Peng looked at the whirring banner in the sky with a solemn face, silently reciting this rotten limerick poem that could not be worse, and suddenly shouted: "Good! Good! What a good poem!"
How many of the village owners could read the words? As soon as they heard the applause of the three kings, they all shouted loudly.
Liu Shang looked at the excited appearance of the three kings, and said while the iron was hot:
"The pioneers of my family often say that the three kings are not only boundless in power, but also brilliant in literature! He also said that in order to prosper in Niutouling, the three kings often let the village masters go back and teach their brothers well, so they often let me wait to learn some words. Today is the king's birthday, although our village does not have any treasures, but after listening to the teachings of the three kings, the brothers studied culture together, and prepared for more than three months to write this poem, although it is unsightly, but it represents a heart, and I hope the king will smile!"
When the three kings heard this, they slapped happily, and said with a smile: "Good! Good!
