399.Valley Stone Village (Please support the bullet shells)
Ten years after the founding of Emperor Taizu, a small incident happened to the Jinshan faction, the sect received an invitation to the Jianghu trial from the young disciple of the Beidou Shenguan, the leader of the Taoist sect in the south, and decided to find a young handsome man from the disciples of the Chongzi generation to go on an expedition on behalf of the sect.
Knowing that he had the opportunity to travel to the rivers and lakes, the disciples of the Chongzi generation were boiling.
And the Jinshan faction has a rule, the three most outstanding in each generation are promoted to the golden generation.
This is also the founder of the Jinshan faction.
The reason why there are such strange rules is because the ancestor of the Jinshan faction, Jinshan Zhenren Sun Xuanqing, the real person has great wisdom, he put forward the concept of 'learning without succession, the master is the teacher', and the disciples recruited later will be changed to the golden generation as long as the cultivation is outstanding and worthy of his learning.
There are a total of fifty-eight disciples in the Chongzi generation, and two of them have profound cultivation and amazing understanding, namely the senior brother Chongyao and the second senior brother Chonghui.
Before going down the mountain and stepping into the rivers and lakes, Chong Yao became Jin Yao, and Chong Hui became Jin Hui.
But what kind of rivers and lakes are rivers and lakes, whether they are long or deep, and which boat should I take and which wharf should I visit?
The fledgling Jin Yao Dao and Jin Hui Dao people knew nothing.
They only know that this so-called 'rivers and lakes' is a vast world, and there is a lot to be done for young heroes.
From the beginning of cultivating and practicing on the mountain, they frequently heard about this place from the mouths of their elders, where there are grievances and hatreds, wind and snow, swords and swords, and the lonely smoke of the desert and the sunset of the long river.
It's a place for young people to aspire to.
So with the excitement of being promoted and being appointed as the future helmsman of the sect, the two stepped into the rivers and lakes in high spirits.
The silver saddle shines on the white horse, like a shooting star.
Kill one person in ten steps, and don't stay for a thousand miles.
For young people, the rivers and lakes are famous, and for the elderly, the rivers and lakes are cautious.
The Jinshan faction didn't let the two of them go down the mountain and left it alone, they sent an experienced elder who had been in the rivers and lakes for many years to lead the team.
Since this elder has been in the rivers and lakes for many years, he naturally has a lot of friends in the rivers and lakes, so he stopped by to visit his old friends.
Jin Yao and Jin Hui had no interest in the gentle, smiling drinking between the old men, and they followed the elders down the mountain for many days, but this was not allowed or that, and they were already impatient and dissatisfied.
In the end, halfway through the road, the two couldn't bear it anymore, and sneaked away with the servants and the map.
The domestic servants belong to Jin Hui, the elder brother of the Chongzi generation of the Jinshan faction was born a wealthy businessman, and when he worshiped the mountain to learn art, the family assigned him a team of servants to serve him in life.
The servant who stayed by their side was called an idiot, because this person was tall and stupid, with a fat face and wide cheeks, small eyes but a big mouth, and a natural inverted eight-figure eyebrows, as long as the face was slightly wrinkled, the two short eyebrows turned into two black caterpillars.
A fool is stupid, but he has good cooking skills, and a kitchen knife is faster and more domineering than the ring knife and the Pu knife in the mountain gate.
Whether it is chickens, ducks, cattle and sheep, they will be arranged clearly under his knife, and the skin, flesh and bones will be separated and then turned into a delicacy.
In addition, such a person is short-mouthed, taciturn, and only likes to do things and doesn't like to talk, so Jin Yao has always liked him and treated him very well.
The three of them and three horses soon got rid of the shackles of the elders and began to fly high in the sky.
At that time, Emperor Taizu had only been pacifying the world for ten years, and many problems left over from the previous dynasty had not been solved.
Jin Yao and Jin Hui were young at that time, although they were young and cultivated, they were high, and they had entered the Four Rank Realm successively, which may not be anything for top masters, but in the face of ordinary underworld forces among the people, it was a dimensionality reduction blow.
The two of them have been punishing rape and eliminating evil all the way, and they are proud of the spring breeze and the ambition of the young man!
One day they got lost while riding through a valley, and the twilight still did not get out of the forest, and finally they saw that they were going to sleep in the barren mountains and mountains.
The two brothers are not panicked, who in the rivers and lakes does not have the experience of sleeping in the open air?
Jin Yao was older, his cultivation was higher, and his temperament was more calm, he looked at the night and said, "Elder Jin Hai said, be careful of the world, it is difficult to move recklessly. Senior brother, I think we should find a place to rest tonight, and we don't have to risk moving forward. ”
Jin Hui stepped into the clouds, jumped on the highest tree and looked at it, and said, "Senior brother, I see that there seems to be a house at the bottom of the valley ahead, maybe it is the house of the hunters in this mountain, how about we go to spend the night? ”
Jin Yao also flew up, and he grinned and stepped on Jin Hui's shoulder, so that he could see further.
The stone houses hidden behind the trees in the valley showed their faces, and there were more than a dozen of them at a cursory glance, vaguely like a small village.
Seeing this, Jin Yao was overjoyed and said, "Elder Jin Hai said that he refused to leave on a sunny day, so don't wait for the rain to shower his head. The appearance of this house is good, and it saves us the pain of eating and sleeping in the open. ”
But he is still cautious: "When thinking about the enemy day, the heart is like crossing a bridge." Senior brother, some houses have suddenly appeared in this wilderness valley, I am afraid that the good ones will not come, and the people who will not come will not be good, so we have to be careful. ”
Jin Hui said: "What Senior Brother said is, but at most there are a group of demons and monsters hidden in this house, and when the time comes, we can just eliminate the harm for the people, isn't it fast?"
The two brothers chatted and walked at the same time, and the tall and fat man who was as tall as a Buddhist arhat silently led the horse and followed the two.
After shuttling through the ancient mountain and forest roads for a while, the sun was setting and the night was falling, and they finally approached the stone house.
More than a dozen stone houses are filled with smoke, festive red lanterns hang outside, and people are picking up inside the doors, and the small village is full of joy.
Seeing this, Jin Yao was even more cautious: "Senior brother, how can there be a reason in our Yang world to marry at night?
The two were watching, the horses neighed, and the people in the room saw their figures and greeted them with joy.
As a result, the two sides took a look, and the person who walked out of the house looked disappointed: "It's not the second brother who welcomes his relatives back, it's three strange travelers." ”
Some people were also happy, and walked up with lanterns and said, "I don't know where the three guests came from and where they are going? It's getting late, and there is only one village in this valley, Pengjiazhuang, do you want to stay in my village tonight?"
There are also old people who warmly entertained: "Guests, please stay, today there are people in our village who are married, and they come to have a wedding banquet together, and there are many people." ”
"Yes, these two young Taoist leaders are nobles at first glance, and they stayed to make our farmers happy. ”
Jin Yao looked at Jin Hui, and Jin Hui said in a low voice: "Everything is up to Senior Brother." ”
Hearing this, Jin Yao smiled, and he said, "The elder doesn't dare to resign, since you fellow villagers are hospitable, how can the three of us refuse?"
The group on the opposite side cheered and walked towards the house in a crowd of three.
Jin Yao gave Jin Hui a look, signaling that his sword would not leave his body and Dan would not leave his body, and he must be cautious.
Jin Hui naturally knew this, and he asked before entering the house: "Folks, as far as Xiaodao knows, our local customs are to get married at noon, why is it at night in your village?"
The old man smiled: "Because the groom is the second marriage, the first wedding is naturally at noon, but the second wedding will be held at night." ”
The two brothers suddenly realized that this made sense.
The stone houses are simple but neat, there is no small courtyard, only a row of houses, and the doors and windows of each house are pasted with red happy characters, and there are also red lanterns hanging on the doors.
The people of Pengjiazhuang welcomed the three of them into the house and gave them warm hospitality, and they were on chestnuts and dried fruits and wild flowers and tea in the mountains.
The two brothers were careful, the chestnuts and dried fruits were not touched, and the tea was secretly poured into the sleeves when they were raised to drink.
Taoists have wide sleeves and have a lot of things hidden in them, so it is natural to hide a towel, and they pour all the tea into the towel.
After a while, someone shouted 'Distinguished guests are coming', Jin Hui went out curiously and saw a middle-aged Confucian frowning.
The hunters of Pengjiazhuang invited Confucian students to come in as guests, and pointed to Jin Hui to introduce.
Confucius smiled and accepted it, and when he walked to the door, he saw Jin Hui, but asked in a low voice: "You released the Bo Lantern here?"
Hearing this, Jin Hui was shocked.
Will Bo Lamp?
The so-called Jiangbo lantern is a lantern-shaped thing, born from the Kong Ming lantern, and after it is lit, the candle will fly when heated.
Its name is derived from a word, Shomonosuke, which means to ask for help from an elder.
In this way, the purpose of the lamp is simple and clear: it is a tool for the monks to ask for help when they encounter demons and monsters but are unable to solve them!
Jin Hui and his senior brother had heard of this kind of magic weapon when they were in the mountain gate, but they had never seen it, because the Shangyuan Mansion where the mountain gate was located was a military powerhouse, and there were many wealthy factions, and the demons and monsters did not dare to make trouble, so naturally no one sent out the general's lantern.
This caused Jin Hui to be surprised but at a loss: "Senior, please, where is the general lantern?"
In order to be conspicuous, they will either be flown high like kites, or they will go with the wind to find someone destined to rescue.
Jin Hui and his senior brother had carefully observed the small mountain village outside before entering the village, but they did not find any flying lights.
The middle-aged Confucian frowned and pointed to a lantern on the door.
Jin Hui looked at the lantern carefully and found that the lantern shape was indeed simple, as if it was simply pasted with four pieces of red paper.
At first, he also noticed this, but he only thought that the village was poor and there were no serious lanterns, so he simply pasted some lanterns to make up the number.
He looked at this lantern and then looked at the other lanterns, and said in a low voice, "Let the seniors laugh, isn't this lantern the same as the other lanterns?"
Confucian snorted and said, "Of course, all the lanterns hanging here are Jiangbo lanterns!"
Jin Hui's scalp exploded all at once.
According to the rules of the rivers and lakes, when a person encounters an unsolvable trick and asks for help, he only needs to light a lamp.
There are no more than twenty lanterns here, and there are a lot of them hanging inside and outside the door, which means that there are more than 20 good people who have issued a distress order here?!
He was about to inquire carefully, when suddenly the sound of a suona flute came from the wind.
Melodious, soft.
The voice gradually became clear, and the people in the room happily ran out and shouted: "Erlang is back from picking up his relatives!"
A few men drinking tea in the room began to beat gongs and drums.
The dull and loud roar suppressed the suona and flute sounds.
Jin Hui hurriedly looked out, and soon after he came to the road, a horse appeared on the kick and tap, and immediately sat a burly man, behind whom there were eight strong men carrying a sedan chair, and some people were blowing and playing at the back.
When night fell, the sky and the earth were dark.
Only the big red flower on the burly man's chest and the big red sedan chair are still gorgeous.
The people in the mountain village greeted them, the men came on horseback, and the big guys gathered together and were beaming.
Jin Hui felt that everything was the same as getting married to ordinary people, and there was no problem.
But it seems to be different.
Confucius smiled and asked the old man to the side: "Old man, who made the lanterns here?" ”
The old man said happily: "It's not made by the people in our village, you don't believe it, this is a lantern from God!"
Confucian was surprised: "The lantern given by the Heavenly Master?"
The old man nodded and said, "Really, these lanterns are intermittently floating to the mountains by themselves, and they are all picked up in the mountains!"
Hearing this, Jin Hui's eyes lit up, and he asked Confucius: "Senior, could it be that there are masters in this mountain who are cultivating in Qing, and these generals are here to find this master?"
Confucian Sheng hesitated and said, "It's possible." ”
The groom dismounted and the bride got out of the sedan chair, Jin Hui tried it with Taoism and found that both the village and the bride were people, not demons and monsters.
The village elders happily came out to invite them to the table, red candles were lit in the main hall, and a boy happily shuttled through the crowd: "Worship the church, worship the church, the bride and groom get married!"
The room was full of festive atmosphere.
Jin Hui wanted to ask about the identity of Confucianism, but the stone house was too small and there were too many people, there were gongs and drums outside the door, and there were people in the house, so he couldn't talk to Confucianism at all.
So he went to Jin Yao to tell the news of Jiang Bo Deng, but saw Jin Yao pressing down his palm to give him a quiet hint.
This made him feel at a loss that the second monk couldn't touch the chrysanthemum.
The clan elder stood in front of the stage and pulled out a red cloth, and suddenly a statue of Guanyin was revealed:
"The bride and groom worship heaven and earth!"
This Goddess of Mercy statue is to send the son of Goddess of Mercy, the left hand holds the jade net bottle, the right hand holds the swaddling clothes, the carving is meticulous, and it makes people look forward to it.
The only strange thing is that this Guanyin is a two-phase phase, a compassionate phase and a wrathful phase, with a compassionate smile on one side and an angry hideous face on the other.
Everyone saluted Guanyin, and Jin Hui stood up and sang: "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, the disciples of Sanqing have seen Guanyin." ”
Jin Yao didn't move, his eyes staring at the bride and his brows furrowed.
Jin Hui was about to ask him what he had discovered, and at this time the clan elder shouted: "Worship heaven and earth!"
The bride and groom turn and worship heaven and earth.
Jin Hui immediately noticed that the bride's movements were slow and stiff.
"Second worship Guanyin!"
The bride and groom turn around and worship Guanyin.
"Husband and wife worship each other!"
The bride and groom bow to each other.
"Send to the cave!"
Laughter and laughter suddenly rang out inside and outside the house, and someone waved and shouted: "Hole room, hole room!"
The clan elder shouted with a smile: "Serve the food first, serve the food first, there are distinguished guests waiting for the feast, this is not the time to make a hole in the house!"
Jin Hui's eyes stared at the bride's back, and he realized that the bride was not in a good state.
The villager who was waiting next to them asked, "What are you looking at?"
Jin Hui smiled and asked, "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, Xiaodao is a little curious, why don't the bride and groom have two high halls?"
The villagers said, "Oh, because whether it's Erlang or the bride, their parents are gone." ”
Steaming dishes are sent one after another, including Sixi meatballs, stewed pork lungs, boiled pork bones, braised rabbit meat, sesame pepper rabbit head, stewed chicken soup, crucian carp soup, and soft three plates and hard three plates, which are very hearty.
The groom came to greet them under the leadership of the clan elders: "Thank you for coming to the door, we mountain people don't know etiquette, don't have good wine and good food, and don't entertain well, and ask for your patience." ”
The middle-aged Confucian student on the table next to him got up and said a few festive words, took out a red envelope and handed it to the groom, causing the groom to make a fuss.
They walked to the table of the senior brothers, Jin Yao glanced at Jin Hui, Jin Hui stood up and handed the broken silver wrapped in red paper to the groom, and laughed again and again: "The groom is so polite, this banquet is already very luxurious, so much wine and meat, and the color and flavor are complete, it is already mouthwatering." ”
"Then you eat, according to the rules of our mountains, the more you eat, the better. The bridegroom smiled innocently.
Jin Yao scooped a bowl of crucian carp soup and tasted it, nodded and said, "Not bad." ”
The middle-aged Confucian also cut a piece of Sixi Balls and ate it in his mouth, and nodded again and again.
Jin Hui saw that they were all under chopsticks, and there was really nothing wrong with this wedding, so he relaxed and ate.
They hadn't eaten a serious meal since they entered the mountain, and Jin Hui would be hungry too.
He usually has a heavy taste and likes spicy dishes, so when he saw a rabbit head with pepper, he took one and pondered thoughtfully while nibbling on it.
Something was wrong with the bride just now!
Her movements are very stiff, all driven by the groom, and if you think about it carefully, it seems that she has lost her soul, could it be that she has been caught in the evil art of losing her soul?
He pondered and pondered, and suddenly felt that something was wrong: why was the room so quiet? There was no sound of talking, no music, no sound of pushing cups and changing glasses, and the sound of chirping!
With a jump in his heart, Jin Hui looked up violently and saw a group of people staring at them intently.
Some are still licking their lips.
Eyes, very coveted!
Seeing this, as soon as Jin Hui grasped the sword on his waist, he said in a deep voice, "Why don't you eat?"
The clan elder laughed and said: "The distinguished guests eat first, according to the rules of our mountains, the distinguished guests eat first, and we will eat after you finish eating." ”
Jin Hui looked at his senior brother, some rural poverty does have such a rule, first rush the guests to eat, and the host's family eats leftovers.
But he felt that this rule did not apply to Pengjiazhuang, because the banquet was sumptuous, which was not a specification that could be displayed in poor places.
He vaguely felt that there might be something wrong with this meal, and the Jinshan Sect was good at cultivating the Inner Dan, so he hurriedly drove the Dantian Inner Dan to walk on all fours.
The march was smooth, he was not poisoned or eaten.
Jin Hui looked at the senior brother suspiciously, but saw that the senior brother was also eating the rabbit head with pepper at this time, and he happened to tear off a piece of meat on the rabbit's gills to expose the rabbit's mouth......
Two rows of flat teeth.
He saw two rows of snow-white and neat teeth peeking out of the rabbit's mouth!
No rabbit should have big teeth!
He looked down at the rabbit head in his hand in horror, and after sucking up the sauce, he revealed his true face, which was a miniature human head!
What I've been gnawing on with relish is actually a human head?
As soon as this thought appeared, Jin Hui's stomach began to tumble, and he opened his mouth and vomited.
At this moment, everyone hula came up, Jin Hui screamed and slapped the table and turned over and jumped out of the open space, shouting at the same time: "Senior brother, senior! Be careful......
His voice came to an abrupt end.
Instead of besieging him, the mountain people went to fight for what he spat on the table on the ground!
An old man still raised his head and grinned: "Honorable guest, look, aren't we going to eat here?"
At this time, Jin Hui realized that the people who coveted and looked at them just now were not hungry for the dishes on their table or their bodies, but waiting for them to vomit after eating!
Seeing this, Jin Hui subconsciously appeared in his heart: a vomiting ghost.
This is one of the common hungry ghosts in the Hungry Ghost Dao, after the husband and wife get married, one of them deceives the other party, and he has his own food to live, and the other party will turn into a vomiting ghost after death, and can only eat what people spit out.
But obviously he had tried it many times before, these villagers were not ghosts!
Could it be that all the Taoist techniques I have learned are fake?
Jin Hui was stunned.
He looked at his senior brother Jin Yao, Jin Yao drew his sword and said sharply, "Let's quit first!"
But at this moment, a red shadow flashed at the door, and the bride, who had been sent to the next bedroom, appeared at the door.
The red wedding dress swayed in the wind, like the long hair of the red rays in the mountains.
Jin Hui knew that those who came were not good and those who were good would not come, so he immediately kicked a chair and flew towards the bride, and then stomped his sword and followed.
The long sword splits the sky.
Aggressive.
The bride turned to avoid, and Jin Yao, who followed up, changed his trick and pushed his sword halfway.
The sword qi swept across the wall, and a finger-deep ditch suddenly appeared on the wall made of bluestone!
Confucius took out a pen from his bosom and wandered among the villagers, only to see him walk the dragon and snake, and once the villagers approached him, it was a word on his forehead.
The person with the word "mountain" lay on the ground with his head in his hands, the person with the word "fire" burned all over his body, and the body of the person with the word "sword" suddenly became two.
Seeing this, Jin Hui smiled easily: "What kind of demon and monster should it be, it turns out to be just a group of little eaters!"
There were too many ghosts, fifty or sixty of them, and when he saw that his senior brother was blocking the bride, he used his sword to help Confucius.
Confucian cultivation is profound, and with the help of his quick sword, fifty or sixty villagers quickly fell under their joint efforts.
However, the bride in red is superb, she wears a red hijab on her head and a phoenix wedding dress, only to see the red wind fluttering everywhere, Jin Yao failed to gain the upper hand for a while.
Jin Hui was about to help his senior brother, when the statue of Guanyin on the altar shook, the eater on the ground got up angrily, the wind in the room was continuous, and a bowl of wine froze instantly!
Seeing this, the Confucian shouted: "What a heavy grievance, not good!"
Many vomiting ghosts began to rush indiscriminately indiscriminately indoors like a whirlwind, and the battle situation suddenly became tense.
Jin Hui swung his sword everywhere but could only barely defend and was unable to attack at all, dozens of ghosts waved their claws at him like a marquee, blocking one after another, one falling and one rising!
The Confucian shook the brush, and the golden ink flew around like raindrops, and the vomit eaters had wounds and quickly rotted as soon as they had a little gold ink on their bodies.
All of a sudden, the ghost cried and the wolf howled, and the cry was terrible!
There was a black aura in the arms of Guanyin statue, and the golden light on the vomiting ghosts suddenly dissipated, and the figure was even stronger.
Nearby, a food spit ghost came with a fist, and Jin Hui's sword was knocked away by a punch!
Confucian Sheng set up a pen to stop the eater and vomit the ghost and said sharply: "It's not good, this place is very evil, you leave quickly to ask for help!"
At this time, Jin Hui knew how there were so many generals hanging in this place!
But he knew too late.
The red-clothed bride was forced away by Jin Yao's sword, and a group of ghosts surged up like a tide, and the evil aura and cold resentment of the rushing sky were like substance, and the rushing Jin Hui subconsciously took two steps back.
Confucius shouted, "Let's go!"
Jin Yao also shouted, "Go and ask the elders!"
Jin Hui gritted his teeth, took his qi under his feet, and rushed out as fast as he could.
The red-clothed bride flicked her sleeves and slapped him, Jin Hui waved her hand and punched, but not to hurt the enemy, but to use her strength to fight, like a leather ball, she flew out of the house, raised her feet and jumped up with her strength, and ran away as fast as possible!
