Three hundred and sixteen times: four immortals all the way down to Yangzhou

Uncle Cao Guo said: "Yangzhou is fighting, the Ming army and the Yan army are fighting there, how could they get there?"

Tie Guan Li said: "In this case, then we should not delay, go, whether there is a war there or not, since this is the case, no matter what, we should also hurry up there to see, maybe they really went there, before they went, they didn't know that there was a war there, go, set off now, hurry there to find them." ”

So, Cao Guo's uncle Tie Gui Li quit the shopkeeper, came out of Caojia Town, and ran straight to Yangzhou.

Lu Dongbin He Xiangu Han Xiangzi Lan Cai and the four immortals, since they lived in the Caojia Town Hotel for a night, He Xiangu had a dream at night, and an immortal came to her in the dream, and saw the fairy with a white beard, a white and red face, and a smile, and came to her and said: "I am a Taiji immortal, I am here to guide you and send you a few words." ”

He Xiangu said: "The little woman sees the fairy Weng, I don't know what words the fairy wants to send me?"

As soon as He Xiangu's words fell, Taiji Immortal Weng sang in a towing tone: "Yangzhou Temple gathers eight immortals, and from then on, they will be together and heroic." The eight immortals in the world are famous, and Jiaodong left his name after blood and tears. Eight immortals in front and eight immortals in the back, according to legend, there are eight immortals in the world. There is no name in front and there is a name after that, and since then the eight immortals have a history. ”

When He Xiangu saw that Xian Weng said this, she asked again: "Tai Chi Xian Weng, why do you want to say this? Can you tell me the truth?"

Tai Chi Immortal Weng said: "Don't ask, don't hear, haven't passed, you can say, things have a cause, cause has an effect, if the thing comes, you can know, He Xiangu, He Xiangu, true and false are the eight immortals, and there is truth and falsehood in falsehood." There is a conclusion in the world to come, and the encounter between good and evil has its own results. Fairy go. With that, it drifted away with a puff of white smoke.

He Xiangu woke up immediately, and knew that she had a dream, and when it was dawn, the dream was still fresh in her memory, so she told the dream to Lu Dongbin Han Xiangzi Lan Caihe, Lu Dongbin felt strange, so he remembered the dream in his heart, and read it several times in his heart, and said: " Since there are immortals to point out, it seems that we are going to Yangzhou to go, it seems that there are eight immortals in the world today, the front of the eight immortals and the eight immortals, it is clear that this means, according to legend, the world is eight immortals, indicating that we will be in the world in the future, is inseparable from the front of the eight immortals, the front of the eight immortals is a legend, we are the real eight immortals, according to this dream, said that we Yangzhou temple meeting, we eight immortals there will be all together, since there are immortals so pointing us, how can we not hurry up to Yangzhou? As for the blood and tears, we will have blood and tears in Jiaodong, how can we go to Jiaodong? If we don't go, let's just talk about what blood and tears are? Since we want to become eight immortals, the eight immortals are indispensable for all eight people, even if there will be blood and tears in Jiaodong in the future, I think it will be okay."

Han Xiangzi said: "In this case, our past dreams have also come true, and now that the immortals have asked us to go to the Yangzhou Temple, we should go as soon as possible." ”

Lan Caihe said: "Since the immortals instructed us to go to the Yangzhou Temple to meet the eight immortals, this means that Uncle Cao Guo and the rest of the immortals will also go there, and we should set off immediately." ”

He Xiangu said: "Since everyone thinks so, then let's leave immediately." ”

So, after breakfast, the four immortals said goodbye to the shopkeeper, went out on the road, left Caojia Town, and went straight to Yangzhou.

Along the way, the four immortals saw that there was chaos everywhere, and there was a remnant of the war everywhere, Lu Dongbin said: "The Yan army of the King of Yan is fighting with the Ming army, and we are going to Yangzhou this time, will there be no war in Yangzhou? If Yangzhou is also fighting, how can we enter Yangzhou City?"

He Xiangu said: "There is a dream, let's not think about it, let's go and see, if Yangzhou is fighting, then Uncle Cao Guo and the rest of the people we are looking for will not be able to enter, if they can't enter, can't we meet outside Yangzhou City? ”

Lu Dongbin said: "This is also true, since we know that we are going to go there, we don't need to think about it anymore, we should go and see." ”

He Xiangu said: "What you dream in your dream must not be false, otherwise how can you remember it clearly, what you say in your dream may be true in the future." ”

Lu Dongbin said: "Since the immortals in the dream said so, and came to point out the birth, there will always be an inextricable connection with the future, judging from the strange things at the moment, we must have a fate with the eight immortals in front, the first eight immortals and the eight immortals, this explains the reason, since the immortals say so, then I think everything will come true in the future." He Xiangu, I only have a rough idea in my heart, you might as well remember it now, you said that I will write it down in detail with a pen and paper, and I am afraid that I will forget it in the future, and it will be helpful to write it down so that we can walk the rivers and lakes in the future. ”

He Xiangu said: "Okay, then I say, you remember." ”

Lu Dongbin said: "Wait, I have to find a way to get paper, pen and ink." ”

He Xiangu said, "Then what should I do? Halfway there, get paper, pen and ink?" As she spoke, she saw a village in front of her and said, "We might as well go into the village and see if we can buy some paper, pens and ink?"

Lu Dongbin said: "Don't think about it first, remember the dream first, and I'll go into the village to have a look." ”

He Xiangu said: "It's like vividness, how can I forget, it's okay, I will remember it." ”

Lu Dongbin said: "In this case, let's go into the village together to have a look." ”

So, the four immortals entered the village, but when they saw that there was no one in the village, Lu Dongbin felt a little strange and said: "Since it is a village, how can there be no one?"

He Xiangu said: "It won't be because of the war, right? Will the people in the village flee because of the war?"

Lu Dongbin said: "It's possible, it seems that it is not far from Yangzhou." However, even if it is a village, although there are no more people, you can definitely find paper, pen and ink. ”

So, Lu Dongbin went around looking for paper, pen and ink, and after a while, he found it back, and He Xiangu said that he remembered, so he wrote down the whole dream and passed it on to future generations.

After recording it, Lu Dongbin looked at what the immortal said, and then pondered it repeatedly. However, some places are still infigurable, and after a brief rest in the village, they set off again to continue to Yangzhou.

I don't know how many times it took to do this, one day, the four immortals finally came to Yangzhou City, but they looked at Yangzhou, it looked like it was a broken look, it obviously looked like there were traces of bloody battles, needless to say that it seemed that there had been bloody battles and vicious battles here, but you look at Yangzhou now, although it is this appearance, but the city gate is wide open, people come and go, in and out, all like nothing, from the appearance of people, there is no way to see that there has been a war here. Seeing this, He Xiangu said: "It seems that Yangzhou is still very peaceful. ”
