Chapter 4 The Giant Willow Has a Spirit
Liu Yanchang was stopped at the door, and he was not sure to break in, so he had to put aside the exploration of Baixian Nunnery and return along the same road.
Standing on the South Mountain, I looked down and saw a huge willow tree at the entrance of Juliu Town. The giant willows are so towering that it takes five or six people to hug them, and the branches are full of red silk.
Obviously, the people of Giant Willow Town have regarded this giant willow as a god.
Liu Yanchang knew a little bit that it was already extremely difficult for ordinary animals to cultivate into demons, and if they wanted to generate spiritual wisdom from plants and trees, the difficulty would increase exponentially. However, the lifespan of plants and trees is very long, and of course there is also a chance to cultivate into a demon.
Liu Yanchang knew that this giant willow was not young, but as for whether it had spiritual intelligence, he didn't know.
But when he passed under the tree and was entangled by the willow branches, Liu Yanchang knew that this giant willow was not only a tree, but also a monster with wisdom.
"Are you a monster?" Liu Yanchang said in horror as he fiddled with the wicker in the sky.
"Don't be afraid, little friend, I have no ill intentions!" an old voice sounded from the trunk of the giant willow tree.
Liu Yanchang stretched out his hand to separate the willow branches, and saw that the eyes, eyebrows, and mouth could be faintly seen on the rough bark, and the big mouth moved. And the voice sounded from all directions at the same time, echoing in this space, the voice was vicissitudes and old.
Liu Yanchang was startled at first, but quickly calmed down and arched his hand: "Under Liu Yanchang, is Your Excellency this giant willow?"
"A willow tree is a willow tree, what can you call it?" The eyebrows on the trunk of the tree were slightly curved, and it looked like it was smiling, but it was attached to the rough bark, and the smile looked a little hideous.
"Your Excellency has entangled me here, won't you just be lonely, you want to find someone to talk to?" Liu Yanchang said.
Who knew that Juliu sighed and said helplessly: "It's really lonely, although I am in the middle of the city, who can listen to me?"
Liu Yanchang nodded thoughtfully: "That's true, people regard you as a god, if they know that you can speak, I'm afraid that they will cut you and get rid of you quickly!
"Since you can tolerate ghosts, of course you can also tolerate demons, that's all!"
"It seems that your skills are really extraordinary, you can also hear what happened in Baixian Nunnery far away!" Liu Yanchang was vigilant in his heart, Cui Wan'er just said a word in front of Baixian Nunnery, and she didn't even show her tracks, this old tree was so clear that it was unavoidable.
"Xiaoyou, don't be nervous, I am a big tree after all, and the flowers and trees in Juliu Town are the eyes and ears of the old man. Isn't it normal to see a little more and hear a little more? What is there to make a fuss about? But I never look at what I shouldn't see, I never listen to what I shouldn't hear, I never say what I shouldn't say, so I can live to this age!" The giant willow chuckled, and the whole tree trembled slightly, and thousands of branches and leaves swayed together.
Liu Yanchang said: "Since Daoist friends only say what they should say, I don't know what to advise?"
"Don't dare to advise, I see that you seem to be a little interested in Baixian Nunnery, and I just want to ask you for help with something!"
"What's the busy?"
Juliu asked rhetorically, "Do you know the foundation of the White Immortal Nunnery, just rushing in so swaggering?"
Liu Yanchang said: "I just saw it today, so naturally I don't know!"
"Hehe, that can only be said to be a little friendly and courageous!"
Liu Yanchang didn't know whether Juliu was laughing or laughing, anyway, he was very uncomfortable, and pouted: "If you laugh at me like this again, I'm afraid I won't be able to talk about it!"
"How can it be a joke? newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, this is courage, give me an old fellow like me, live a thousand years empty, isn't it useless!" said Juliu angrily.
"It's almost dawn, let's hurry up and tell you what you know!" Seeing that Juliu didn't care about his fame, Liu Yanchang admired it.
"I heard that there is a family of eunuchs in Jiading Mansion, Sichuan, whose surname is Gong, a scholarly family, and several generations of Jinshi were born. With the accumulation of time, the family has become more and more prosperous, with thousands of acres of fertile land and countless slaves, which can be regarded as the largest household in Jiading Mansion. Until the Yongding period of the previous dynasty, the head of the family was consolidated, and he was a high school jinshi and an official in Kyoto. There is a beloved daughter in the family named Gong Wanqing. It's just that he has neglected discipline since he was a child, and married Liu Bingqing, a son of a local wealthy family, on the occasion of 28. ”
"Wait, talking about the matter of Baixian Nunnery, how did it go to the previous dynasty and the Gong family?" Liu Yanchang hurriedly stopped, no matter how this story sounded, it didn't seem to have anything to do with the Baixian Nunnery in front of him.
"Xiaoyou, don't worry, you listen to me slowly, don't you know if there is any contact?" Juliu continued: "This Gong Wanqing is not the kind of eldest lady who is knowledgeable and reasonable, and she is very stubborn. Although Liu Bingqing's character, knowledge, and family background are not bad, Gong Wanqing just doesn't want to, since marrying into the Liu family, he has refused to die and will not have sex with Liu Bingqing. But the strange thing is that since Liu Bingqing died of depression, she swore to keep the festival for her deceased husband and never marry again. ”
Later, as things gradually developed, people learned that this Gong Wanqing had already reconciled with a white-veined snake who had cultivated in the mountains of Shuzhong. If this matter was placed in an ordinary family, Gong Wanqing would probably have been immersed in the pig cage a long time ago, but it happened in the Gong family, the largest famous family. In order not to damage the reputation of the family, he did everything possible to cover it up, and did not hesitate to spend a huge amount of money to build Baixian Nunnery all over Shuzhong, and turned the demon white-veined snake into a god. is what everyone calls the white-clothed immortal, and his followers all call themselves white-clothed walkers. ”
Liu Yanchang gradually heard his eyebrows: "So, the Baixian Nunnery here is also the white-veined snake in the story?"
"It can be said that it is easy to create a god and it is difficult to destroy a god, this white-veined snake got the method of cultivating the god from somewhere, and with the incense accumulated by the Baixian Nunnery, his Taoism has improved rapidly. At the same time, the number of Baixian Nunnery is also increasing, from Jiading Mansion to almost the entire Bashu now. I'm afraid that few ordinary spirit officers and gods are his opponents, let alone you, a fledgling boy?"
Liu Yanchang broke out in a cold sweat behind his back, but he didn't ask for mercy: "Just tell your story, why harm me? Since this white-clothed immortal is so powerful, I'd better hide it, I won't help with this favor!"
"The old man is just joking, why should you take it seriously!" Juliu said with a smile.
Liu Yanchang said seriously: "It's not that I went back on my word and didn't want to help." It's just that this white-veined snake spirit path is too deep, and I can't kill myself, right?"
Cui Wan'er also ran out of the ancient jade at some point, and helped Liu Yanchang and said: "Xianggong is right, we can't do this thing to send you to death!"
"Little girl, you can put a hundred and twenty hearts, how could I ask your father-in-law to send him to death, since you asked him to help, there is naturally a way to deal with it!" said Juliu teasingly.
Cui Wan'er was also blushed by his weird voice.
