Chapter 31 The Nine Heavens
Today, the newly promoted twelve Xuannu, dressed in plain clothes and with their hair in a high bun, followed a gorgeously dressed goddess and walked on the white jade steps of the first heaven - the Duyou Fairy was among them.
The eyes are surrounded by auspicious clouds, the heavenly steps under the feet spiral up, and the scattered Qionglou Yuyu can be vaguely seen half-hidden in the clouds, and the distant music comes from the ears, a bright and peaceful scene.
So, this is the legendary Nine Heavens?
"Everyone in the world says that the Heavenly Palace is a ninefold heaven, and 'nine' is just a huge number, taking the meaning of extremely complex and complex. ”
The goddess dressed in brocade led everyone up slowly, and said:
"The thirty-three heavens of the heavenly palace, this place is the first good law heaven, and this seat is the good law heavenly venerable, responsible for teaching and leading you to cut off the mundane things, abide by the rules of the heavenly court, and become the true heavenly maiden of the ninefold heaven. ”
The good law Niang Niang is solemn, not smiling, bring everyone to the palace gate, lightly lift the hand, only to see the heavy vermilion door slowly open, the middle of the hall is a golden pillar, the fairy mist is shrouded, when you go to the front to look closely, you can only see that there are countless small characters densely engraved on it, from top to bottom I don't know how many layers, there are turbines inside, slowly rotate at different speeds, and countless turbines have a heavy metal run-in sound when the gears are engaged.
"This pillar is the lord of the mortal world, the sun and the moon rotate, and he holds the law of the heavenly and earthly branches. The so-called one day in heaven and one year on earth came from this. ”
Everyone sighed when they heard it, and sighed at the miracle of heavenly creation.
The good Dharma Niangniang walked to the middle of the main hall, and pointed to the twelve pillars engraved with gold characters around her and said: "This is the twelve scrolls of the Heavenly Strip, the foundation of the Heavenly Court. In the first 30 days, you have no official position or immortal status, and all affairs are under the responsibility of this seat; after 30 days, you will be sent to various yamen in the Heavenly Court to serve, and the way you will go after that depends on your own creation. ”
Everyone said yes.
At this moment, through the side door, a celestial maiden dressed in regular clothes came in, holding a black lacquered wooden box in her hand, and twelve scrolls neatly stacked inside.
"Today is the first lesson you have learned when you enter the Heavenly Court, and the most important thing is to memorize the Heavenly Rules. Tomorrow at this time, I will evaluate you here, and if you can't answer, you won't blame this iron-faced selflessness when you are punished. ”
When he had finished speaking, he turned and left.
Everyone waited for her for a long time, and then each opened the scroll in his hand. Although the Heavenly Venerable of the Good Law is high, the Heavenly Maiden in front of her is extremely kind, and when she saw that the master had gone away at this time, she said to everyone:
"I'm a good law fairy, young ladies just call me Xiaosleeve. ”
Everyone looked at each other, knowing that the rules of the heavenly court were strict, and they didn't dare to say a word.
Xiao Sleeve didn't think so, and also unfolded the scroll in his hand, and said:
"It stands to reason that my family's good law Niangniang should personally explain the laws of heaven to you, but today the Emperor of Heaven wants to summon Niangniang, so Xiao Sleeve will do it for you. ”
As she spoke, she cleared her throat and explained the entire law of more than 2,000 words to everyone sentence by sentence. The law was not as obscure as expected, and the twelve Xuannu were not ordinary people, they were all intelligent, dexterous, and excellent before they were selected here, and they were explained very smoothly in a short time.
"If there's anything you don't understand, or something you don't understand, you can ask me directly. ”
Xiao Sleeve was very enthusiastic, and when he finished talking about business, he pulled up something else:
"This heavenly palace has been built for exactly 18,000 years, and when the young ladies and sisters will be titled and appointed in the future, you can go everywhere in this heavenly palace, and you can enjoy the beautiful scenery everywhere. There is only one exception. ”
"Where?" the crowd asked.
"Thirty-three times away from the hated heaven, also known as the pure heaven. Xiao Sleeve stretched out a finger and pointed to it: "There is an ancient god living in the Palace of Hatred, and the law code that I am practicing today is from the hand of that old god." ”
Everyone was shocked when they heard this. Duyou had already heard about this in the mortal world, and at this time he asked: "People who don't know what the fairy said, but the ancient god of war Chongli?"
When Xiao Sleeve heard this, he hurriedly made a silent gesture and said: "This is the name of God, and I want to mention it again." ”
Alone and frightened, he didn't dare to say more.
Xiao Sleeve sighed and said, "When you first came, how did you know that the taboo of this Heavenly Court is written on paper by all? It is said that the Emperor of Heaven has practiced for 108,000 years in the Three Realms, but he also wants to call this 'eldest princess'." ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was even more shocked: "The ancient god of war is actually a woman?"
Xiao Sleeve's expression is complicated: "Is it strange?"
Someone among the Xuannu said: "If you talk about this ancient god who holds fire in the mortal world, everyone thinks that he is a black-faced steel-haired man, but who is actually a mother?"
"Mother, in fact, there are many kinds. ”
Xiao Sleeve was full of indescribable expressions, sighed and said: "In short, although the Heavenly Court respects the Emperor of Heaven, if this person opens the golden mouth, it will be based on her words." Within the four seas, in the Three Realms, no matter which great god there is, no one dares to provoke her - even if it is a conversation after dinner, no one dares to lift his head and chew the root of her tongue. ”
Xiao Sleeve looked at everyone's shocked and frightened expressions, and couldn't help but chuckle: "You don't have to be afraid, this great god has been living alone for a long time, and he doesn't like to move around on weekdays, but I'm afraid it's rare to meet it once in hundreds of years!"
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Most of the newcomer training period of the Good Law Day has passed in a blink of an eye, and the rules and regulations are talked about every day, which is really boring.
Early this morning, after the twelve Xuannu finished copying the code, they saw the Good Law Tianzun coming back from outside with an angry face, and dropped a few words to tell Xiao Sleeve to complete today's progress, and hurried out again.
Everyone didn't dare to come out, silently listening to the good law Tianzun scolding all the way, as if to say, "A group of fools who are going to make trouble when they are full! I have caused a commotion and even caused me to wipe my buttocks?!Potato, you tomato?!Potatoes, you tomatoes", everyone did not dare to speak, let alone ask more, until they heard the palace door slam shut, and they all looked at Xiao Sleeve in unison.
I feel like I've seen a fake girl.
Xiao Sleeve smiled awkwardly: "As I said before, there are many kinds of mothers." ”
Today's agenda is to take the new employees to visit the Heavenly Court.
Originally, this should also be something that the Good Law Heavenly Venerable should do himself, but now it has to be completed by Xiao Sleeve. It seems to be an easy errand to travel in the mountains and rivers, but every time Xiao Sleeve takes them to a place, one or two heavenly officials who want to save trouble will hand over the routine official documents to her and take them back along the way, and only then did she go around the Nandou Xingjun Mansion and the Siming Mansion, and there are dozens of official documents on her body.
"Hmph, these lazy people who want to be comfortable, if my mother comes in person, see that you still have the guts? ”
The level of the small sleeve is low, and it is not easy to refuse in person, and he has accumulated a stomach full of complaining bitterness, and his mood is getting worse and worse.
The Xuannu saw that this situation was also inappropriate, so they persuaded her to go back earlier, but according to today's schedule, there is still the Flower God Temple in the south that has not been visited. Xiao Sleeve was hesitating, and saw a purple-robed white-faced little Taoist priest passing by.
As soon as Xiao Sleeve saw that it was him, he immediately took the initiative to greet him with a smile:
"Ziyang-kun!"
The little Taoist looked very young, but it was a golden crown and jade belt, a python pattern purple ribbon, this dress looked not low-grade, it was by no means an ordinary little heavenly official, but he was very kind, and when he saw this group of heavenly girls, he stepped forward with a smile:
"Hello little ladies!"
Xiao Sleeve introduced to the Xuanmaiden: "This is Mo Jiuxuan, the master of the Ziyang Palace, and he is the most enthusiastic and helpful among the eight hundred gods of the Heavenly Court!"
Xiao Sleeve has always been obedient, and he praised that person very useful.
Duyou couldn't help but be secretly surprised when he heard this, this person seemed to be very young, and he had practiced for no more than three or five thousand years, but he was able to stand on his own, ranking above the twenty-eight houses, which shows that this person must have something extraordinary.
"Where are Ziyang-kun going?"
"These days of the Flower God Festival, I have nothing to do, go and have a good time. ”
"Coincidentally, I'm about to take these newcomers to the Flower Temple, but I have a lot of official documents on me, which is inconvenient, can I ask you for a favor?"
That Ziyangjun was refreshing, and then agreed to it, telling her to rest assured. Xiao Sleeve was overjoyed, handed over all the Xuannu to him to take, and went back to the Good Law Palace alone.
This man is very different from the immortals in other places.
In the past few days when the Heavenly Palace has lived, Duyou has a cold eye that the Heavenly Palace is full of hierarchies, and no matter how small the immortal officials are, they have their own bunch of affairs, and their rights and responsibilities are clear, and no one is idle and troublesome.
The person in front of him was not only easy-going but also very talkative, and after a short time, he talked and laughed with the Xuannu, and talked about the strange things in various parts of the heavenly court, and gradually became familiar with each other. Duyou wanted to take the opportunity to come forward and ask carefully, but thinking that he was new to Heaven after all, it would be annoying to ask questions when they met for the first time, so he just followed everyone silently, paying attention everywhere, and refused to say a word or take half a step.
The Flower God Festival is a small-scale gathering of the flower gods of the Heavenly Court. Taking advantage of the birthdays of several flower fairies and flower gods in the heavenly court, they were so lively, so they invited many fairies and immortals in the mortal world to get together and set up a platform in Qinfang Garden, and the sea of flowers was full of singing, dancing, laughter and laughter.
Ziyangjun took the Xuannu to walk around the gardens, and had to explain the origin and wonders of various places at the same time, and met the little fairies who came and went to serve tea and pour water, regardless of the grade, their mouths were full of sisters and sisters screaming and coaxing them very happy.
There is a circular bamboo platform in the middle of Qinfang Garden, which can be seen from a distance from the lakeside plank road, and the dancing girl on the stage has long sleeves and a graceful posture, and the drums are not lively during the banquet.
Dozens of gardens of all sizes in this Qinfang Garden are scattered and connected, during which the flowers and plants are flourishing, and the pavilions, stone bridges and water pavilions are one step at a time, and the people are dazzled by the eyes.
Ziyang Jun was very familiar with this place, and directly led them to a secluded high-platform pavilion, not far away, just enough to see the stage in the middle, beckoning them to come and sit.
"This flower god festival is going to be held every one or two hundred years, and I'm a super member who comes back to the capital!"
Ziyangjun smiled and ordered Xian'e to present the fruit plate, and when he saw that everyone was still a little restrained, he smiled and said: "When you go to the yamen everywhere to receive the title and take up the post, I'm afraid that it will be difficult to have leisure to join in this excitement, so you still have to have fun in time!"
Everyone glanced at each other, and then they took their seats.
