The heavens and the earth are first opened, Hongmeng is the first judgment, and all kinds of heavenly demons and beasts are rampant, or they are ten thousand feet tall, or they pick the stars and take the moon. After countless years of attacking each other, they shattered the sky full of stars, and evolved into infinite worlds, like the sand of the Ganges, which are countless.

Suddenly, one day, the spirit is vigorous, all things are born according to the way of heaven, imitate nature, and more human beings, set the spirit in one, came into being!

In the ninth year of Jianping in the Great Zhou Dynasty, Liuzhou Mansion City, Liu Ji Pawn Shop, the sky was just bright, and the second master Liu Xu began to be busy.

Liu Ji pawn shop is Uncle Liu Xutang, the ancestral business of Liu Shulin.

Liu Xu has been smart and clever since he was a child, and he can learn to read and write at the age of three, and recite poetry and books.

When Father Liu saw him like this, he bowed to Mr., studied the articles and classics, and looked forward to the day when the title of the gold list would be honored, and the ancestors would be glorified!

It's a pity that the world is impermanent, when Liu Xu was eight years old, it coincided with a drought in the northwest, starvation was everywhere, a family of three was all infected with the epidemic, and his parents died one after another, but Liu Xu was not destined to die, and miraculously survived.

Uncle Liu Shulin saw that he was lonely and helpless, and he had no children under his knees, so he adopted Liu Xu. Seeing that he was weak due to the epidemic, he found a martial artist to teach some methods to strengthen his body.

Since then, he has been a little guy in the shop.

In addition to practicing martial arts on weekdays, Liu Xu especially likes to read, it can be said that he can't let go of the scrolls, and the ancient books he has saved in the pawnshop for countless years have been read by him.

Seven years, in a flash, Liu Xu endured hardships and stood hard work, studied seriously, and Liu Shulin saw that it could be cultivated, so he taught him all his skills, and now he can be alone.

After eating breakfast and soaking in a cup of Longjing, Liu Xu saw that there was no business coming to the door, so he bent down and took out a ruler-thick book from the counter, which was covered with oil stains and was dark and shiny, and began to watch.

Looking at the dilapidated appearance of this book, I think it is caused by countless years of ancestors reading it.

I saw that on the cover, there were three big seal characters "Seeing and Hearing Records", and Mr. Le.

According to Willow Grove, this book was the grandfather of his grandfather's grandfather, who spent two copper coins and received the dead money.

At that time, the prime minister's family committed an incident, was dismissed from his post and investigated, and was beheaded all over the house.

Young people are out of nature, active in thinking, even if they dream on weekdays, it is also mostly related to this, suddenly subjugating demons and eliminating demons, and suddenly talking about metaphysics with fairies, so they are not at ease.

On the three poles of the sun, Liu Xu looked at it shaking his head, reading words, seeing the highlights, sometimes frowning, sometimes laughing, really happy.

I thought in my heart, "I don't know what dynasty and generation this Mr. Hele is, and what kind of experience he has to write this book." If you are fated to catch the old ginseng who has become a essence, you will also cultivate him to be immortal, and his mana is boundless. Turn those nine heavens and ten earths upside down! This kind of life is not in vain. ”

Just when Hongfei was in the dark, he vaguely heard someone shouting 'shopkeeper' and pulled him out of the illusion. When I looked up, I saw a tall and thin man standing in the hall, about forty years old, dressed in coarse linen clothes, with a restrained expression, looking left and right.

He raised his hand and closed the record and asked, "Uncle, what's the matter with you?"

This family lives in Wangjiagou, thirty miles southwest of Liuzhou Mansion, and there are five brothers in the family.

This morning, he helped his cousin's family dig a well, and he dug out a bell the size of an egg at a depth of fifteen zhang under the well, and couldn't help but rejoice in his heart, "Looking at some years, maybe it is an antique, if it can be sold for two taels of silver, it can be enough for the family's expenses for several years." ”

At the moment, I was full of longing, I didn't care about eating, and I walked thirty miles hungry and came to the Liuji pawnshop in Fucheng.

Seeing that the shopkeeper was studying hard there, he didn't dare to disturb, and he stood stunned for a moment, but he was really hungry and had no choice but to cry timidly: "The shopkeeper."

Seeing him look up, he admired in his heart, "Good guy, two sword eyebrows flew obliquely into his temples, and a pair of big eyes were blazing." With a high nose and a pointed shell, he is really a handsome little brother! If the second girl can marry me, I will be blinded when I die. ”

Liu Xu saw that Wang Lao Wu was in a trance, silent, and asked patiently: "Uncle, what is the matter with you?

Wang Lao Wu came back to his senses from his conjecture and hurriedly said, "Yes, yes. ”

took out a cloth bag from his arms, wrapped it in three layers inside and three layers outside, carefully took out the rusty bell, and handed it over respectfully.

"Uncle, this object has to remove the rust first, and then talk about other things, do you think it's okay?" Liu Xu took it in his hand and tasted it, looking at its rust traces, it seemed that it was not light.

Wang Lao Wu nodded and said, "I'm afraid that I will break it, so I don't dare to make it myself, and I will bother the little brother." “

"No trouble, no trouble. "Make tea for Wang Lao Wu's seat, and turn to the back hall to remove rust.

Wang Lao Wu was in a worried mood, "I don't know how much it can be priced? If you have a few silver, get a board car into the city to pull your feet, and make money to buy a few acres of fertile land, maybe there will really be a bright day!"

I picked up the teacup and poured a big sip, good guy, the tea is hot. I wandered back and forth in my mouth several times, but I didn't dare to spit it out directly, for fear of dirtying the floor, I forcibly swallowed it into my abdomen, and I only inhaled cold air when it was hot.

Liu Xu removed the rust in the back hall, feeling a little disappointed. The workmanship of this bell is exquisite, not gold or silver, and it looks like it is cast in copper. However, there is no inscription and seal, so it is impossible to determine the age. And due to the lack of bell core, it can not make a sound, and it is worth two taels of silver. Looking at Wang Lao Wu's rags, he can't help but feel sympathy. After continuing the second course of tea: "Uncle, do you want to live or die?"

Wang Lao Wu scratched his head and asked, "I don't know what is the difference between living and dying? Which one has the highest price?"

Liu Xu hurriedly explained: "What is the job, the price is three taels of silver, and the surplus money can be redeemed in the future, and the property will be cleared." As for death, the price is five taels, and this thing has nothing to do with you. ”

"God, you have finally opened your eyes! My Wang Lao Wu has never tasted any evil in his life, but occasionally picks up two sweet potatoes from other people, and he is so hungry that he can't help it." This is a blessing you have given me!"

Five taels of silver is a huge amount of money for him, and he received the silver tremblingly, and bit it with the big yellow fangs, and while smirking, he took out the rag and wrapped it carefully, and it was three layers inside and outside, and he didn't look back.

After sending Wang Lao Wu away, he played with the bell for a while, and said in his heart: "I have time to install a bell core to see if I can find a wronged boss and sell it." After that, he threw it in the corner and continued to sink into the record.

Liu Xu was also tired of this comfortable life, and vowed to read thousands of books, travel thousands of miles, see all kinds of things in this world, and set foot in this thousands of miles of China!

Every time here, the willow forest wept and wept, "Young people should have great ambitions, and they should not live in confusion." Although your ideals are beautiful, you don't know the sinister hearts of people. You don't have to do more, no one will take care of you, in case there are three long and two short, how can I face your dead father. In ancient times, there were three unfilial pieties, and no queen was great, and after two years, you will marry a daughter-in-law and give birth to a baby to inherit the ancestral business, and I don't care where you like to go. ”

Slowly, Liu Xu's mind also faded, and he was at ease to be his second shopkeeper. I live every day by seeing and hearing records, and I am still fulfilling. is in response to the sentence: "The man has not shown his Lingyun ambition, and he is born with a five-foot body!"

Early this morning, Liu Shulin came to the shop and said to Liu Xu: "After a while, follow your aunt to Baiyun Temple to incense, you kid must be honest and not naughty." ”

Liu Xuqi said: "Didn't you always accompany your aunt in the past, and why today?"

Liu Shulin looked helpless and sighed deeply: "Your aunt doesn't know which crooked slander to believe, saying that this Baiyun Guan Qiuzi is very effective, in my opinion, it is a group of charlatans, and when I am busy with this section, I will go to tear down its temple gate and smash its treasure hall!"

Hearing this, Liu Xu was also silent. The two of them threw a lot of money in Baiyunguan in the past, but it didn't work, no wonder he was resentful and complained. If he stayed here any longer, he was afraid that he would touch his head, so he hurriedly ran to hire a carriage and picked up his aunt and went to Baiyun Temple.

"It is said that the flow of monks and Taoists is an unfathomable person, with mana, I don't know which way of immortals live in the Baiyun Temple, and today is just taking the opportunity to see and see. "In a hurry, but I felt that the carriage was as slow as a stupid cow, and it was bumpy.

So he asked the coachman, "This big brother, how far is it from Baiyun Temple, and when will you be able to get there?"

"Little brother, what are you anxious about, do you also want to see those female pilgrims? There are so many beautiful women. If only I could kiss Fang Ze......" then showed a standard profane smile.

Liu Xu slandered in his heart: "The foot of the car and boat shop, if you are not guilty, you should be killed, the ancients will not deceive me!"

"Big brother, I have read some miscellaneous notes, and I actually said some fairy and ghost words, but I hate not to see them. As a car boss, you often travel from south to north, and the news must be very well-informed, have you ever seen it?" Liu Xu continued to ask.

The coachman listened to the compliments, and was in a good mood, took two mouthfuls of dry tobacco, spit out thick phlegm with a "cough", and chirped twice in his mouth, and then cleared his throat, and said with his burnt yellow teeth: "Are there any gods and ghosts in this world, my brother doesn't know."

However, the year before last, I pulled a female guest to Shenjing, and the woman was like a figure who came out of the painting, beautiful and dazzling!

I didn't know that there was a 'boom' on the way, and I directly hit the roof of the car, and with the light like the sun, I went to the sky! This is good, I shed tears for a month, and I almost didn't become blind. In my opinion, this is a female bodhisattva. ”

While speaking, his mouth was still swishing, and he showed a standard profane smile.

Liu Xu smiled and leaned back: "I think that woman thinks you shouldn't see it, so she will punish you slightly." ”

The coachman said embarrassedly: "I, Ma Er, swear to the sky, that little lady is definitely going to heaven." Ordinary martial arts masters, men and women have seen a lot, and if they go to the sky, they will climb over the wall and walk on the roof, how can they fly to the sky. ”

After Liu Xu listened, his eyes lit up, and he secretly thought in his heart: "If this person's words are true, maybe there are really immortals in this world, hiding in the sky all day long, eating and drinking, and watching us and other ordinary people." In the future, if you are fortunate to learn the truth, you will definitely rob the rich and help the poor, punish the evil and promote the good. ”

At this moment, I suddenly smelled a fragrance like an orchid musk, ethereal, intoxicating, and looked up following the smell, it turned out to be a white cloud.

As far as the eye can see, a huge piece of building, glittering with golden light, endlessly, a huge mountain gate, lying in front of you, three zhang high, five zhang wide, hang a plaque horizontally, on the book "Baiyun View" three big seal characters.

On the fifteenth day, it was the time when the business of the Taoist temple was booming, and there were crowds of people, shoulder to shoulder. Liu Xu helped his aunt get out of the car, paid the fare, and said to Ma Eryan: "We have to go back to the city later, please wait for a while." ”

Finally entered the gate, only to see a five-zhang wide marble road, straight to the Daxiong Treasure Palace.

Near the left side of the treasure hall, there is an incense burner with a grinding plate, the incense ash inside is piled up like a mountain, and the incense sticks with the thickness of the child's arm are inserted, and the smoke is swirling, and it is extremely pungent.

On the right side of the treasure hall, there is a pond of pools, look at it closely, there is no drop, full of thick silver coins!

Observe the need to invest money in it, and then there is a Taoist who hands over the incense stick for tourists to pay homage.

Liu Xu was disdainful in his heart, and there was no hope for this trip, "The roof of this Baiyun Temple is gilded, and there is a pool full of money, and it is full of copper smell! If there can be a Taoist master here, then I am the Buddha of Taoism." ”

After Pang Shi put on the incense, he said to Liu Xuyan: "You wait nearby, I will go inside to worship, there is a tea room in the back, you can also go there to stay for a while, remember not to go far." ”

Liu Xu sat in the tea room for a while, feeling irritable and restless, "Although you may not be able to find an opportunity here, it is also boring to sit here, so it is better to go out and take a walk." ”

Out of the tea room, there are several guest rooms in the back, and the courtyard is equipped with a cypress tree hugged by several people, and a bluestone path is paved in between.

Turning around, unconsciously, I went to the door of the moon, checked left and right, saw that no one was obstructed, stepped inside, and suddenly felt a quiet ear.

This moon gate is like a sluice knife, cutting off time and space, keeping the hustle and bustle in front of you out, the contrast between the front and back is so great, it feels like two worlds!

There is a bamboo building behind the door, standing quietly, amazingly, there is actually a small stream, meandering, I don't know where it comes from, and where it goes!

"It's really a quiet place, a house of immortals, which looks like the front, it's just vulgar. ”

After straightening his clothes, there was a knock on the door.

I heard a deep voice say, "Young man, come in." ”
