Two hundred and fifty-eight times: Zhang Guolao appeared in Yangzhou

Hu Yun and the demon Liu Sheng made a poison plan, and decided to send people to the folk rivers and lakes to find scum, as the saying goes: flies don't bite seamless eggs, go to the folk rivers and lakes to find the Ming army spies who are spying, as soon as they come to the people, as soon as they come to the people, they first hear about the four beasts in the rivers and lakes, and they go back to report to Liu Sheng.

Liu Sheng was overjoyed when he heard this, and said: "Who are the four beasts? Listening to their nicknames as the four beasts, I know that these four people must have no humanity, they are like wild beasts, and they are very famous in the rivers and lakes, and they must be extraordinary people, and they are exactly the people I need." Speaking of this, he asked, "Can you find the whereabouts of the four beasts?"

The spy said: "Report to the marshal, the four beasts are the rivers and lakes yin thief wolf cold wind knife, the rivers and lakes roar to the sky and the lion roars to break the sky, the rivers and lakes drill the heart of the evil snake, and the rivers and lakes fly monkeys and flying little saints." ”

Liu Sheng said: "It's quite strange to hear their names, and it can be seen from the names that these four people are not good because they do no evil." ”

The spy continued: "The four of them are often erratic, and I am afraid it is difficult to grasp their whereabouts. ”

Liu Sheng said: "Can't you even grasp a person's whereabouts?"

The spy said: "The four of them are often together most of the time, so if you find one, you can find them all." ”

Liu Sheng said: "I see, that's good, quickly grasp the whereabouts of them, and report them as soon as possible." ”

The spy said, "Order." ”

Although the Eight Immortals of Yangzhou are in the image of the Eight Immortals, they call themselves like this, constantly appear as the Eight Immortals on the rivers and lakes, and continue to do chivalrous and righteous things, so at the same time, people at that time had a good impression of them respectively, and felt that they were called and chivalrous to themselves, as well as the role they played A little strange, but in the hearts of most people who know, they still accept and acquiesce to them, and those who do not know not to mention that the Eight Immortals return to the world.

Although some of those who know about it secretly call them weirdos, and strange people, they still have a good impression and admiration for them.

Later, although the people at that time called them the Eight Monsters of Yangzhou and the Eight Immortals of Yangzhou, but at the same time they were called, there was a story of their strange and unusual getting together, that is to say, the gathering of these eight people was an unusual, not an accident, but had some legends, just like the eight immortals in the story of the eight immortals crossing the sea had a peculiar story when they got together. Moreover, after these eight people got together, because people spread about them and had a good impression of them, these eight people were moved, and in the later haunts of the rivers and lakes, they continued to do chivalrous and righteous things, making people feel more that they are like the real Eight Immortals, and they feel more and more like the Eight Immortals in the legend of the world The Eight Immortals came to the world to eliminate evil and promote good.

In this way, Yangzhou's Eight Immortals, Yangzhou Eight Monsters, are more famous in the rivers and lakes, therefore, Yangzhou Eight Immortals, and Yangzhou Eight Immortals, in Yangzhou at that time, it was really to a point where everyone knew about a little fame. At that time, Yangzhou, when it came to Yangzhou Eight Strange Creatures and Yangzhou Eight Immortals, it was really something that every household didn't know.

In the past, Yangzhou also had eight literati, these eight literati had been in the historical library, also left their names and stories, in the current literary and historical circulation, whenever Yangzhou eight strange people are mentioned, people will know that Yangzhou has been called Yangzhou Eight Strange eight literati, about Yangzhou is called Yangzhou Eight Strange these eight literati, here because it has nothing to do with this story, so I will not do additional telling, here will be known as Yangzhou Eight Immortals Yangzhou Eight Strange these eight people peculiar story to say.

Legend has it that one day, this self-proclaimed Zhang Guolao, when he was walking the rivers and lakes, because he was getting older, he felt that his legs and feet were a little inconvenient, so he wanted to go to the market to buy a horse to ride. On this day, he went to the market to buy a horse, but the money on his body was not enough to buy a horse, only the money to buy a batch of small donkeys, therefore, in the case of no way to buy a horse, he had to set his eyes on the little donkey, he gave up buying a horse, set his eyes on the donkey, and sure enough, it was like a miracle all of a sudden, and suddenly he was optimistic about a little donkey, and suddenly felt that he was very fated with this little donkey, so that his heart couldn't help but like this little donkey.

Especially this little donkey, I also feel as if I have a fate with him, since the little donkey saw him, it has been constantly looking at him, and can't help nodding to him as if spiritual. When he saw it, he felt the cuteness of this little donkey even more, and then took a closer look, and saw that this little donkey was a light black color, which made him feel very fond of it, and he especially wanted to buy a little donkey that he loved, the color of the little donkey, so he liked it at first sight, so he bought this little donkey.

When he led the little donkey out of the market, he saw that the little donkey had become very docile in front of him since he had bought it, so he could not wait to go up and ride it, so he rode on the little donkey at once.

However, he rode this time, and felt very comfortable, the little donkey carried him slowly, so that he felt leisurely and leisurely, never had such a feeling and such a comfortable, riding this little donkey, he felt a bit like the taste of Zhang Guolao in the legend of the Eight Immortals, and then think about his surname is not Zhang? So, when he thought of this, he also felt a little strange heart, so he also turned his body back, and let himself turn his back forward, face backwards, wandering around, and also learned from Zhang Guolao's appearance, so he also rode the little donkey upside down, thinking about finding the feeling of Zhang Guolao riding the little donkey upside down.

But when he rode a little donkey like this, he felt quite comfortable, so he couldn't help but close his eyes very comfortably, and he also closed his eyes comfortably and wanted to hum a few words of tune, thinking about humming a few words of tune, a tune, but he didn't know the lyrics of a tune, so he had to hum dryly, but he couldn't make a name for himself, but he felt unwilling, so he suddenly felt regretful on a whim: "Xiaoqu, I can't hum, minor, I can't, I can't hum a minor, what should I do?" It's not a good idea to hum like this, it's so boring, why don't I go back and buy a record book? Hum a little tune according to the record book, and see if I still can't hum?"

So, he turned around again, rode the little donkey and walked back, and came back with the few money he had left, bought a cheapest little record book, and then rode back to the little donkey, and went out of the market leisurely, closed his eyes again, and thought about humming a small tune, so he slowly opened the record book, looked at the record book for a while, then closed his eyes and shook his body and hummed for a while, and when he hummed, he still closed his eyes, and rode the little donkey and hummed.

In this way, he snorted like this, some people who didn't understand the truth saw it, and saw that an old Taoist suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, a thin and long face with a dry and clear face, the beard on the chin was already silver-white, drooping downward, looking so long and peculiar, looking like he was wearing a green coat, and he rode on a little donkey like that and walked leisurely and leisurely, and looked at the record book from time to time, and then hummed a small tune, people's eyes suddenly lit up, and their hearts said: " Isn't this the eight immortals who crossed the sea Zhang Guo Lao came to the world, what is it?" So, everyone thinks that they have met the gods today, and they have met the gods Zhang Guo, in the hearts of the people at that time, they were all very worshipful of the gods at that time, therefore, everyone couldn't help kneeling down when they saw it, and some of them couldn't help but kowtow and said: "The little one met the old fairy Zhang Guo here today, and the little one kowtowed to the old fairy Zhang Guo, kowtowed, please bless the little family with peace and security." ”

When the old man saw that people had come to kowtow to him, and they all called him so, he was stunned for a while, and then reacted again, but he didn't know what to do in this situation, so he was a little embarrassed for a while.
