Chapter 133: The Red Line Conspiracy
"Zhang Ziyang, you are crazy!
"Above the heavenly court, how can there be anything impossible to do, it depends on whether the benefits are big enough! I don't need you to waste anything, I just need you to pull a red thread. ”
"That's not okay, this red line is not arbitrary!"
"Who said no, as long as you hold this red thread, Poor Dao will give you three Nine Turns Golden Pill. ”
"Don't say three, even if it's thirty, I won't pull the string. ”
"Old Yue, do you have to let me force you?
"Zhang Ziyang, you're forcing me to die! I'll just take it, you don't need to scare me with this thing!"
Liu Neng stood in the reception room of the Yuelao Pavilion and listened to the quarrel in the room. It can be seen from the dialogue that Yue Lao is a good person who is not corrupt [***], but I don't know what Ziyang Zhenren used in the end to force him to comply.
After the two said goodbye to Kui Wood Wolf, they came to the Yuelao Pavilion. Ziyang Zhenren said that he had a very good relationship with Yue Lao, and asked Liu Neng to wait in the reception room, and he went to the inner hall to discuss with Yue Lao about connecting Liu Neng and Yang Chan, which led to the dialogue in the above paragraph.
Hearing that Yue Lao finally succumbed to Ziyang Zhenren's Yinwei, Liu Neng's heart was on fire, and his mind was full of Yang Chan's beauty. Now I can put a heart in my stomach, even if Liu Neng misses after ten days of competition, as long as he can escape from Shengtian, he will not let Yang Chan, a good cabbage, be arched by Zhijian. No one can resist the red line of Yuelao, as long as it is involved, no one can escape the involvement of the red line, even if it is ordered by the Jade Emperor, it is useless.
"If you have the opportunity in the future, you really have a good relationship with Yue Lao. This old man is so useful, if you put Naojian and a sow together, will he die in one head!"
Just when Liu Neng was thinking about it in the reception room, he heard another angry cry from the room: "Zhang Ziyang, the red line is over, you should be satisfied now!"
Then there was a knock on the door, and an old man in a big red robe came out of it, holding a red silk in one hand and a staff in the other, and walked out angrily.
"Yue Lao, why be so stingy? Anyway, this line is over, why don't you let Poor Dao have a cup of tea here?" Ziyang Zhenren followed out of the house with a smile.
"Yue Lao Pavilion is small and thin, and it is inconvenient to stay guests, Zhang Ziyang, please take care of yourself!" Yue Lao replied angrily, and sat on a chair without looking at Ziyang Zhenren.
Ziyang Zhenren was not angry, sat on the chair next to Yue Lao, and somehow found two jade cups and a jade pot, and placed them on the small table between the two. After filling the two teacups, he picked up a cup and said, "Yue Lao, you are all involved." You can't escape this, this 10,000-year-old chalcedony liquid is rare, if you don't want to drink it, I'll give it to someone else. ”
"Zhang Ziyang, Ziyang Zhenren, I beg you. I've also pulled the line, what else do you want!" Yue Lao didn't answer his words, got up and took a step, threw himself to the ground, and bowed to Ziyang Zhenren with a bitter face.
"I'm fine, just sit here for an hour. Ziyang Zhenren smiled, took the jade cup in his hand and sipped it gently.
"You're really a scoundrel!" Yue Lao didn't have anything to do with Ziyang Zhenren, but seeing that he was pleading hard, he was still unmoved, reluctantly sat back in place, and shouted as if resigned to his fate, and reached out to pick up the jade pot on the table, not even using a teacup, and came to drink like a long whale sucking a hundred rivers.
Liu Neng looked at the two of them from the side, and felt uncomfortable for the old man, it was really hard for this old man. Yang Chan's marriage was ordered by the Jade Emperor, Yang Jian proposed marriage, and the other party was Marshal Zhentian Zhijian, Yue Lao directly offended these three people by pulling the red line for himself and Yang Chan, no wonder he behaved like a mourner.
I don't know how Ziyang Zhenren would bring so many jade pots, every time Yue Lao made a pot, Ziyang Zhenren would take out another pot, and Yue Lao was also not afraid of coming, as if he wanted to vent all his hatred into the jade pot in front of him.
Just when Yue Lao was full of water, there was a sound of light footsteps from outside the house, and then a gentle voice sounded: "Yue Lao!"
Hearing the voice, Yue Lao's face was even darker, and he first glanced at Ziyang Zhenren viciously, then stood up and walked to the door and said: "Yue Lao has seen the Seventh Princess, I don't know what happened when the princess came!"
"Zi Ling doesn't dare to call the old man like this, may I ask if Master Fahai is a guest here with you?"
"What kind of princess is looking for me!" Liu Neng was stunned when he heard this, and stood up, but seeing that Yue Lao was blocking the door, he couldn't see anyone at all, so he said loudly: "Amitabha, the poor monk is Fahai, I don't know who is looking for me?"
"Great!" With the voice walked in from outside the door, a woman with a lantern in her hand, dressed in purple, was extremely petite, her body was light, her complexion was fair, and she was faintly transparent, like flowing milk. The eyes are smart, the mouth is slightly smaller, and Zhong Linghui is beautiful.
After Zi Ling came in, he said a blessing to Liu Neng: "Master Fahai, the Queen Mother is invited." ”
"The Queen Mother invites me!" Liu Neng was even more surprised, he had never intersected with the Queen Mother, how could the other party remember to invite him.
"That's right!" Zi Ling nodded and said, "Please also ask Master Fahai to move, the Queen Mother is waiting for Master Fa to drive in Lanxiu Palace!"
"Zhang Ziyang has seen the Seventh Princess!" At this moment, Ziyang Zhenren stood up, first gave a deep salute to Zi Ling, and then patted Liu Neng's shoulder, and said earnestly: "Master Fahai, since the Queen Mother is invited, you should go quickly! Don't ask the Queen Mother to wait for a long time, and don't forget what you promised to be poor." ”
"This old man is so weird!" Liu Rang Ziyang Zhenren glanced at it, and felt that he was cold.
"Zi Ling has seen a real person!" Zi Ling saw Ziyang Zhenren salute him, hurriedly returned a salute, and then said softly to Liu Neng: "Please Master Fahai move, don't let the Queen Mother wait for a long time." ”
"Just go, what a big deal! Just to see what the Jade Emperor's wife looks like. Liu Neng said secretly in his heart, and after answering, he and Zi Ling left the Yuelao Pavilion and walked into the distance under the guidance of the other party.
"Zhang Ziyang, you killed me!" Seeing Liu Neng and Zi Ling leaving, Yue Lao stood up with a flutter and pointed at Ziyang Zhenren and scolded.
"You pulled the thread, how did I hurt you. Ziyang Zhenren replied with a sneer.
"Nonsense, if you hadn't forced me, would I have been able to pull this line?"
"The thread is pulled, what's the use of regretting it now? Let's wait and see how things develop!" Ziyang Zhenren took out another jade pot and handed it to Yue Lao.
"That's all it takes!" Elder Yue sighed, took the liquid in the jade pot in one move, and suddenly looked up at Ziyang Zhenren, and asked, "Zhang Ziyang, where did you get so much 10,000-year-old chalcedony liquid?"
"Who said that these pots contain 10,000-year-old chalcedony liquid, that's a hundred years. Only in this cup of poor road is ten thousand years. Ziyang Zhenren looked at Yue Lao and said with a wicked smile, then tilted his neck and drank all the contents of the jade cup.
.............................. Where does Liu Neng know the catty between Ziyang Zhenren and Yue Lao, his mind is all on the Zi Ling beside him, not what Monk Liu thinks about Zi Ling, but the heart of gossip, I don't know if this little girl is the legendary Weaver Girl, and in the end, it was given to the Cowherd's strong annihilator or Dong Yong's little white face.
"Princess Ziling, are you Your Majesty's Seventh Princess?" After walking like this for a while, Liu Neng finally couldn't help but speak.
"I'm indeed number seven, just call me by my name, don't call me princess. Zi Ling replied softly.
"Sure enough, it's the Jade Emperor's seven girls!" Liu Neng said secretly, in order to ensure that he did not recognize the wrong person, and then asked: "The poor monk often hears the skillful hand of the purple spirit girl in the mortal world, known as the Weaver Girl, I don't know if there is such a thing." ”
He didn't ask this casually, because in folklore, the seventh princess beside Dong Yong was a master weaver, and she knitted 300 pieces of cloth in a month, which ransomed Dong Yong from the rich man. And the seventh princess snatched by the Cowherd is called Weaver Girl, which is the folklore that Liu Neng heard about the cocoon when he was a child. If the other party is not a master of weaving, how can it be called this name.
"Don't dare to be a master and praise!" Zi Ling blushed: "I just like embroidery and weaving, and I usually don't have anything to do in the palace, so I can only use this to kill time." ”
Seeing Zi Ling's delicate appearance, Liu Neng felt a sense of love in his heart. secretly can't let this little girl be hurt, no matter whether she marries Dong Yong or Cowherd in the future, the future will be extremely miserable, and Dong Yongtian will be separated forever, if you know Cowherd is even worse, it is simply a strong criminal instigated by Lao Niu.
Thinking of this, Liu Neng smiled mysteriously and said: "Miss Ziling, the poor monk was interested just now, and secretly made a hexagram, and wanted to give it to the girl, I don't know what the girl wants?"
"The master can also calculate hexagrams!" Zi Ling said excitedly, and then looked at Liu Neng with suspicion: "I have only heard that Taoist priests can guess words and calculate hexagrams, but I have never heard that monks also have such skills." ”
"This little girl!" Liu Neng's face was extremely thick, how could he be defeated by Zi Ling's words, and replied while rubbing his bald head: "Miss Zi Ling, don't underestimate the poor monk, the poor monk is a disciple of the Tibetan Buddha, and the hexagram is unparalleled in the world." When Shicai went to Tushi Palace to see Taishang Laojun, even Laojun praised the poor monk. ”
"Really?" Hearing Liu Neng say this, Zi Ling became interested.
"Really, it's more real than real gold!" Liu Neng said with a smile. He secretly said in his heart: "You can't ask Lao Jun, at most you can find out if the poor monk has been to Douxuan Palace and whether he has seen Lao Jun!"
"Thank you, master!" Zi Ling grew up in Heaven since he was a child, and with the care and love of the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother, how could he know the sinister nature of the world, otherwise he would not have gone to the Nether Realm to take a bath and lost his clothes, even he lost himself. Hearing Liu Neng say this, he immediately turned around and said a thousand blessings.
"The poor monk hexagram shows two items, the first of which is that the purple spirit girl must not go down to the mortal world, especially not to bathe in the mortal world. And the second is to fight with the ox, the farther away from the ox, the better!"
After Liu Nengshen finished speaking mysteriously, his heart relaxed a lot. He said everything he could, if the little girl didn't listen, she would go down to earth, and it would not be something he could manage.
"You can't go down to earth, the farther away from the old cow, the better!" Zi Ling obviously believed in Liu Neng, while carrying a lantern to guide the way, his mouth was still repeating these two sentences.
Lanxiu Hall is located behind the Lingxiao Treasure Palace, all the way, from time to time to see there are heavenly soldiers and palace maids, but seeing the purple spirit leading the way, one eye does not squint, as if not seeing the great monk Liu.
Not long after, I have arrived in the Lanxiu Palace, which is different from the Lingxiao Treasure Palace, lacking a little bit of majesty, but there are a few more copies of Juanxiu and Linglong, which seems to be more feminine.
After Zi Ling took Liu Neng around a few times, he walked outside a room and knocked lightly on the door: "Zi Ling has seen the Queen Mother, and Master Fahai has arrived." ”
"Squeak!"
The door opened, and a middle-aged beautiful woman about thirty years old stood inside. Dressed in makeup, graceful and luxurious, bright colors.
"The poor monk has seen the queen mother!" Liu Neng looked at the beautiful woman and secretly exclaimed. He has already seen the queen mother's eldest daughter, Princess Longji, and the seventh daughter, Princess Ziling, and the two are rare beauties, but compared with the queen mother, they are a little more youthful, a little less mature, especially the beauty and majesty that have been calling the shots for a long time.
"Master, please come in!" the Queen Mother bowed slightly.
Liu Nengzhi didn't care, he entered the room sideways, and when he wiped the body of the queen mother, he smelled a fragrance like Zhilan, which made his heart flutter, and for a while it was like in a dream, I don't know if it was the natural aroma of the queen mother, or the spices she used.
"Zi Ling, you should step back first! I have something to talk to the master!" the Queen Mother withdrew Zi Ling, closed the door, and entered the room.
The interior is more elegant, the case is bright and bright, the small bronze incense burner is placed with curling green smoke, there are several paintings of flowers and birds on the wall, Biluo light gauze decorates the window edges, and a few flowers that Liu Neng can't name are obliquely inserted in the jade bottle in the corner of the wall.
"Master, please take a seat!" the Queen Mother stretched out her hand to the small table on the ground.
Liu Neng looked around, but saw that there were no chairs in the room, only a thick woven carpet spread on the ground, which was a picture of a hundred birds and a phoenix. But when he saw that he put it on the carpet, he knew that the Queen Mother had let him sit on the carpet. After settling down with his shoes, he looked at the green smoke rising from the incense burner on the small table without squinting.
The Queen Mother leaned her back against the door, her eyes scorching, and she said lightly: "Master Fahai, do you know what happened to you today?"
"How do I know?" Liu Neng said secretly in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it, so he replied respectfully: "The poor monk really doesn't know, please let the Queen Mother make it clear!"
Queen Mother Feng glanced at Liu Neng deeply, and said slowly: "There are two reasons, the first reason is that the queen wants to see what the man who fought Yang Jian outside the Nantian Gate and made Chan'er die looks like?
The queen mother's contempt not only did not hit Liu Neng, but made him breathe a sigh of relief. If the queen mother's attitude is difficult to understand, he is afraid, but the other party is overjoyed, and he is not worried: "The poor monk is a mortal, and he is fortunate to be loved by the three virgins." The poor monk did not dare to be ungrateful, and in desperation, he broke into the Nantianmen and asked the queen mother to punish the crime. ”
The queen mother said coldly: "What kind of sin do you have, you are in the lower realm, and Chan'er is in the heavenly palace." The two of you look at each other in the air, and you are cold and lonely for life, are you innocent!"
Liu Neng was greatly surprised, I don't know how this villain, who often destroys other people's marriages in folklore, could say such affectionate words, between the lines, it is clearly a matter of supporting him and Yang Chan.
The queen mother was surprised when she saw Liu Neng, and her tone became more and more cold: "I watched Chan'er grow up, so naturally I don't want to see her unhappy." Although the master is not satisfactory in length, he can barely get by. The master is a personal disciple of the Dizang Buddha, and he has been taught the Dharma by the Great Saying, so he can be regarded as a famous family. Since the door is right, why should the queen oppose the marriage between the two of you!"
After listening to the Queen Mother's words, Liu Neng suddenly realized, and then he knew why the Queen Mother didn't oppose him. It turns out that because of his identity, a bodhisattva is certainly worthy of the Three Holy Mothers of the Heavenly Realm. Although he disdained the other party's view of the family, the other party finally expressed his kindness to him, and hurriedly bowed his head and said: "Thank you for the love of the queen mother, the poor monk will definitely live up to Chan'er for life!"
Liu Neng said this, the queen mother was obviously very satisfied, nodded slightly, took a few steps forward, stood on the edge of the carpet, and then said: "You have this heart, and the future is very safe." From today on, Fahai, you have to treat Chan'er well, do your best to serve the heavenly court, serve Your Majesty and the queen, and naturally have your benefits in the future. ”
"The queen mother seems to have too much confidence in the poor monk, right! The poor monk still has a hurdle to pass?" Hearing the queen mother's words, Liu Neng couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"You don't have to be afraid of Zhenjian, I'll explain to him later. If he has any dissatisfaction, you just have to kill him, no one dares to gossip!" The queen mother stared at Liu Neng for a few moments, suddenly sneered, and spoke coldly.
"The poor monk is not the opponent of the straight marshal, after ten days, I am afraid that the one who loses will be the poor monk!" Liu Neng smiled bitterly again.
"It's not promising!" The Queen Mother reprimanded sharply: "I really doubt how the Jizo Buddha will fall in love with you, you can't lift a pen in writing, you can't lift a gun in martial arts, and a little Zhijian can't beat it." ”
Liu can make the queen mother speechless, hating her own lowly skills, so she can only bow her head and say: "What the queen mother taught is that the poor monks have low skills, and they must practice hard in the future to ensure that they will not lose the queen mother's face again." ”
"It's not my face that you've lost, it's your own face, it's your master's face!" the queen mother taught another lesson, and then continued: "There is something I want to ask you in the future, and if you can answer it, the matter of Zhijian will be handed over to the queen, and you will be guaranteed to live safely." ”
Liu Neng was overjoyed when he heard this, and this is called when he was sleeping, and the pillow fell from the sky. The so-called queen mother is out of the horse, a top two, and you can be straight and healthy without Ziyang Zhenren's hard work, why not.
"When you were in the Nether Realm, did you ever hear of a demon king!I used to be the general of the Heavenly Court!" The Queen Mother stared at Liu Neng with dead eyes, and was silent for a long time, and finally spoke.
"Rolling Shutter General, isn't it the Rolling Shutter General who was demoted to the mortal world because he accidentally broke the glass cup?" replied Liu Neng without thinking. The queen mother asked about the sand monk in the Journey to the West, about his deeds, not to mention that he can answer, it is estimated that there are few who cannot answer in the future generations.
"That's right, do you know where he is? How is he doing now?" When the queen mother heard Liu Neng's answer, she could no longer maintain that noble posture, walked a few steps, and arrived in front of Liu Neng, looked at him from a few distances, and even brought a burst of fragrant wind, and asked anxiously.
"No!" Liu Neng looked at the Queen Mother strangely, not knowing how the most powerful woman in the Heavenly Realm could lose her temper like this, even when the Queen Mother hurriedly left, when the skirt was flying, the exposed half of the little leg carved from ivory did not bother to look at it, and felt that this matter was extremely strange.
