Chapter 147: Lu Zu is coming

Among the immortals who have always been invited, the god Zigu has always been the most popular. The Qing Zigu god has always been characterized by answering people's questions or predicting good luck and evil in a written book. Sometimes, it may be other immortals who are invited.

No matter what kind of immortal it is, they are all those idle people, those who are more curious, and those who are busy with work, how can they have time to pay attention to you.

There was no reaction today, and Master Rong Fei couldn't help but be very surprised. Everyone couldn't help but look at each other. Only the child, with a wooden pole in hand, was attentive. He was more attentive, indicating that there might still be some reaction, but everyone didn't see it.

Qi Peng asked quietly, "Buddha, could it be that the immortals are not available to come?"

In the middle of the night, everyone saw the pen on the sand table move, and slowly wrote a "Tao". The font is diastolic and is in block letters. It seems that the pen is strong and round, and the momentum is solemn and majestic. Lao Wang is an expert, and he can see that it is Yan Ti, which is quite Yan Zhenqing's penmanship. If it was said that the child who was helping the plate did it, it was absolutely unbelievable.

Everyone was puzzled, and Master Rong Fei asked, "Who is the Immortal?"

The oracle replied, "I am Lu Yan." "The font is vigorous, the penmanship is vertical and horizontal, and it seems that it is indeed not something that can be achieved by the weather in the world.

Everyone was shocked, Master Rong Fei was the first to react, turned over and bowed, and everyone else also bowed down.

This Lu Yan has many names, and the most well-known ones should be Lu Chunyang and Lu Dongbin.

Lu Xian, Mingyan, the word Dongbin. A native of Yongle County, Puzhou. Tang Zhen was born on April 14, the 14th year.

According to legend, when Lu Dongbin was born, Mrs. Tai's house was filled with strange fragrances and fairy music, and a white crane slowly descended from the auspicious clouds and mist, flew into Mrs. Lady's bed, and disappeared. Soon after, Lu Dongbin was born.

may be because the Lu family is a scholarly disciple, or Lu Dongbin is originally a god in the sky. He was born with an extraordinary aura and many supernatural places. When he was still in infancy, his family invited a Zen master named Matsu to show him his face.

As soon as Zen Master Matsu saw this little son of the Lu family, he was very surprised, because Lu Dongbin was very different from ordinary children. So he said with praise: "The appearance of the little prince of your family is far from being comparable to ordinary people, I am afraid that he is the reincarnation of the gods in the sky." I think that one day, he will become a monk and return to the fairy world. ”

The people of the Lu family listened to the words of Zen Master Matsu and thought that this child was going to become a monk in the future, and they seemed to be a little unhappy. But I thought that if I could really become an immortal, I would be able to relieve the suffering of the people, and my family would be happy.

This little son of the Lu family really lives up to expectations, he has been smart since he was a child, he never forgets, recites ten thousand words every day, and can write. When he grows up, he is even more Yushu and has an awe-inspiring demeanor, and one of his biggest preferences is to love Huayang scarves. However, although Lu Dongbin is a talent, he still doesn't want to marry a wife and start a family when he is in his twenties. Because his parents had heard the words of Zen Master Matsu a long time ago, they didn't force him much.

Although Lu Dongbin didn't want to marry a wife, he wanted to be an official very much, and he took the Jinshi exam one or twenty times in a row, but he didn't pass the exam. However, his talent and learning are rich in five cars, and his talents are eight buckets, why do he always fail to succeed in repeated attempts? It seems that Lu Dongbin was originally destined to be an immortal, and God will not let him enter the world to become an official. Later, some people said that the reason why he failed the exam was because "the immortal text is not in the eyes of ordinary people, and Zhu Yi does not nod", that is to say, mortals cannot understand his articles.

But Lu Dongbin has never given up. When he was sixty-four years old, Lu Dongbin went to the capital to take the Jinshi examination. This time, he came to Chang'an a few days in advance, so he was still very leisurely before the exam, so he traveled around Chang'an.

In a thatched hut on the outskirts of Chang'an, he met a Taoist priest. This Taoist priest is dressed in white clothes, and he is chanting poems. In fact, this is Han Zhongli, who came to help him achieve immortal paths. Lu Dongbin saw Han Zhongli's strange appearance and elegant poetry, which immediately aroused his great interest and chatted with him.

Han Zhongli was also disrespectful and responded leisurely. Later, Han Zhongli said to him: "I am Mr. Yunfang Zhongliquan, cultivating at the top of the Crane Ridge in Zhongnan Mountain, are you willing to abandon the wealth of the world and learn from me to become an immortal?"

Lu Dongbin was still very heavy at this time, and he always wanted to be a big official like his ancestors, so he just shook his head and didn't agree.

At night, both of them spent the night here. Lu Dongbin lay on the kang bunk and read a book, and fell asleep after a while. And Han Zhongli is cooking on the side.

After Lu Dongbin fell asleep, he soon entered the dream given to him by Han Zhongli. In his sleep, Lu Dongbin dreamed that he had won the champion in one fell swoop this time, and his official fortune was prosperous, and he quickly achieved the position of prime minister of the court, and his children and grandchildren were full of glory. But because of the power of the first generation, he soon aroused the jealousy of the traitorous ministers, and was framed everywhere, and then lost the favor of the emperor, and was sentenced to a very serious crime, and finally ended up bankrupt and his wife separated. When he was old, he was left alone, destitute, and standing alone in the wind and snow.

He woke up when he was feeling hungry and cold. At this time, Han Zhongli's rice had not yet been cooked.

When Han Zhongli saw that he had woken up, he smiled and said to him: "Before this yellow rice is cooked, you have already sleepwalked to the Immortal Country, which shows that this dream is too short." ”

Lu Dongbin was surprised, and hurriedly asked, "How does the old Taoist know about my dream?"

Han Zhongli said: "You are in the world, and your heart is in the dust, who would not know your dreams? But this glory is too fleeting. So you don't have to be happy with what you gain, and you don't have to be sad about what you lose. This earthly world is just a dream. ”

Hearing this, Lu Dongbin suddenly came to his senses, and immediately knelt down and begged Han Zhongli to accept him as an apprentice. But Han Zhongli was still afraid that he would not be strong-willed, so he wanted to further test his determination to seek the Tao. In this way, there is the story of Han Zhongli's ten attempts at Lu Dongbin.

First try: Lu Dongbin came back from outside one day, and as soon as he entered the house, he saw that the whole family had died for no reason. Seeing this, he was neither sad nor remorseful, but just silently arranged the funeral of his family. Just as he was taking care of the aftermath, his family suddenly came to life, and Lu Dongbin was still not sad or happy.

The second test: Lu Dongbin went to the street to sell goods, and originally negotiated the price with the buyer, but in the end, the buyer regretted and changed his mind. Lu Dongbin is still not angry or annoyed, he can pay as much as the buyer likes, and take it with him.

The third test: When Lu Dongbin was shepherding sheep, he encountered a vicious tiger chasing a lamb. Lu Dongbin didn't care about his life and blocked the tiger with his body, and the tiger had no choice but to leave in a huff.

Ten times in a row, Lu Dongbin's test of Han Zhongli was treated with a plain state of mind. Han Zhongli then said to Lu Dongbin: "I have tried you ten times, and you have successfully passed the worldly level, which shows that you can attain the Tao, but if you want to become an immortal, you still have to establish 3,000 merits and 800 virtues." ”

Since then, Lu Dongbin has used the Taoism and immortal techniques learned from Han Zhongli, as well as the swordsmanship he later learned from Huolong Zhenren, to constantly go around to save people, kill demons and eliminate evil, and benefit the people, and make a lot of merits. Lu Dongbin completed 3,000 merits and accumulated 800 virtues, and finally became a god in the sky.

Lu Zu is here today, what is the situation?
