Chapter Ninety-Five: The Clouds Beheaded the Corpse, and Emperor Shun succeeded to the throne

However, it was said that the demon clan conspired to destroy the human race, and under the guidance of Kunpeng's poisonous plan, the demons planned to launch the Yellow River. And Di Yao was very old at this time, and his health was not as good as before, and he was no longer able to properly handle many things of the human race. Therefore, Di Yao summoned his ministers and asked: "I have reigned for 70 years, and now I am in the twilight of the West Mountain, since I should obey the mandate of heaven and find a great sage to succeed me as emperor. ”

When the ministers heard this, they talked among themselves. After a while, Fang Qi cautiously said: "Danzhu, the son of the co-master, is well-informed and can take over the throne of the emperor." ”

Di Yao said disdainfully: "Hmph! Dan Zhu, his people are stupid and vicious, and they are not properly used. ”

When everyone heard this, they were all silent, Dan Zhu was Di Yao's most beloved son, and now Di Yao was excluded, and everyone suddenly lost their recommendation. After a moment of silence, everyone began to discuss the candidates again, and in the end, everyone finally reached a consensus, and everyone said: "His Majesty the Holy Emperor Xuanyuan has a grandson named Kun, this person has a wide range of knowledge, extraordinary skills, and is praised by everyone in the world, enough to take on this important responsibility. ”

When Di Yao heard this, he lowered his head and thought for a while, and was just about to agree, when his heart suddenly moved. I saw Di Yao's eyes roll, and then stroked his beard and said: "This person is indeed good, but you still recommend a few more, don't make mistakes." ”

As soon as everyone heard this, they felt the truth deeply, and they began to discuss it again, and suddenly, the minister Siyue said to Yao: "There is a person named Yu Shun who lives among the people, and his virtue is very good. I just don't know if he can be qualified for the position of co-master. ”

Di Yao said: "Well, this person has also heard of it, but I don't know how, you tell it carefully." ”

Siyue replied, "Shun lives in a family environment where "his father is stubborn, his mother is arrogant, and he is proud", his father is a blind man, his heart is not right, his stepmother is two-faced, and his younger brother is unruly, and several people collude to kill Shun and then be happy; When Shun wanted to harm him in the family, he avoided it in time, and when he got better, he immediately returned to them and helped them as much as he could. With such an unfortunate background and such a bad environment, Shun was able to live in harmony with his family, do his filial piety, and govern his family well, so that they would not go to evil. ”

Yao said, "Then I'll try him first." ”

So Di Yao married his two daughters, Empress E and Nuying, to Shun, and observed his virtues from the two daughters to see if he could take care of the housekeeping. Shun asked them to lower their noble hearts and live in their homes by the Fu River, and obey the way of being women. The two daughters are very fond of Shun and abide by women's morals.

Shun makes pottery, which can drive the people around to engage in it seriously, keep improving, and put an end to the phenomenon of shoddy production. Wherever he went, people were willing to follow, so "one year to live in Chengju (Ju is the village), two years to become a city, three years to Chengdu (four counties for the capital)". Yao was glad to learn of this, and gave him Shun a silk cloth (fine kudzu cloth cloth) and a harp, cattle and sheep, and built a barn for him.

Still trying to kill him, he asked Shun to go up and repair the barn with dirt, but he set fire to it from below. Shun protected himself with two hats, jumped down like wings, and escaped, so that he could not die. Later, Shun asked Shun to dig a well, and when Shun was digging a well, he dug a secret passage in the side wall to the outside. Shun dug deeper, and the elephant poured soil down to fill the well, and Shun went out through the secret passage next to him and escaped again.

The elephant was very happy, thinking that Shun was dead. The elephant said, "I was the one who came up with the idea. Xiang divided Shun's property with his parents, and said, "I want the two daughters that Shun married Yao, as well as the qin that Yao gave him." Let the cows, sheep, and barns belong to their parents. So he lived in Shun's house and played Shun's harp.

Shun went to visit him when he returned. He was very stunned, and then put on a sullen appearance, saying, "I am missing you, I am so depressed when I think about it!"

Shun said, "Yes, you are really a brother!" Shun still treats his parents as before, loves his brothers, and is more respectful.

In this way, after trying Shun's conduct, Yao began to let Shun get in touch with government affairs.

Yao asked Shun to try to take the position of Situ and be responsible for the promotion of moral teaching, so Shun taught his subjects to use the "Five Classics", that is, the five virtues of fatherhood, mother's kindness, brotherhood, brotherhood, and filial piety, to guide their behavior, and the subjects were willing to listen to his teachings and generally acted in accordance with the "Five Classics".

Yao also asked Shun to be in charge of hundreds of officials and handle government affairs, and all the officials obeyed Shun's command, and all of them were revitalized, none of them were deserted, and they seemed particularly orderly and disorderly.

Yao also asked Shun to be at the four gates of the Ming Hall, responsible for receiving the princes who came to meet from all over the world. Shun got along well with the princes, and also made the princes harmonious and friendly. The princes and guests who came from afar respected him very much.

In the end, Yao asked Shun to go alone to the forest at the foot of the mountain and endure the test of nature. In the storm and thunderstorm, Shun can not lose his way and still walk, showing a strong ability to live.

After many tests, Yao saw Shun's extraordinary talent and noble character, and Shun was finally recognized by Yao, so Di Yao ordered people to prepare, intending to pass on the position of co-master to Shun.

After a few days, everything was ready, Di Yao worshiped the saints and emperors, and officially passed the position of co-master to Shun, and he went to the Huoyun Cave to retreat.

Just after Di Yao's merits were consummated, Yunxiao, who was thousands of miles away, also gained a lot of merit because of his assistance to Di Yao's preaching. After the merit descended, Yunxiao was suddenly covered by a ball of golden light, Qingyun appeared, three flowers bloomed, and there was a golden golden bucket and a money with wings on it, which was Yunxiao's mixed yuan golden bucket and Luobao money.

At this time, above the three flowers in the sky, the outline of a figure gradually became clear, and after a while, the figure had condensed. I saw that the man opened his eyes, jumped off Qingyun, and saluted to the clouds: "I have seen Daoyou, congratulations to Daoyou for successfully beheading the corpse, the road is promising." ”

Yunxiao smiled slightly, and replied: "Daoist friends don't have to be polite, you and I are one, and we should be happy together." The man laughed, and then turned into a streamer and flew into the sky, disappearing.

Seeing this, Yunxiao sat down cross-legged again, quietly feeling the harvest of this corpse.

At the same time, in the Biyou Palace of Penglai Island, Tongtian and Houtu sit opposite each other in the cloud bed. At this time, Tongtian was playing with a fan in his hand, and he was fascinated. This fan is made of five colors of divine light plus a lot of merits, within the five elements, nothing is brushed, now after being refined by Tongtian, when it is waved, it is with the effect of confusing people, the end is extremely powerful, Tongtian is named the Five Elements Merit Fan. And Houtu, who was sitting opposite, was not surprised that he was used to his appearance.

Seeing that Tongtian was completely immersed in the world of Lingbao, Hou Tu shook his head, no longer caring about him, and prepared to close his eyes and cultivate. Suddenly, Hou Tu's body paused slightly, and he turned his head to look at the east, with a look of joy in his eyes, but he sensed the cloud and beheaded the corpse. came back to his senses and hurriedly said to Tongtian: "Brother, Yunxiao has also beheaded his body." ”

Tongtian had also sensed it at this time, and said with some sighs: "I thought she needed to assist the three emperors to preach, but now it seems that she doesn't need it." ”

Houtu didn't care about Tongtian's sigh, and said happily: "In this way, wouldn't there be an extra position of emperor?"

Tongtian just wanted to speak, but his heart suddenly moved, and he turned to look at the east suspiciously, and lowered his head to think. After a while, Tongtian looked up at Houtu and said with a sly smile: "This time, I don't plan to let my disciples assist Emperor Shun, everything will go naturally." ”

Houtu listened and looked at Tongtian suspiciously. For Tongtian's brother, Houtu thinks that he knows very well, and he will never give up any benefits, and now this kind of practice is obviously not his style, which makes Houtu a little puzzled. But since Tongtian said this, she didn't ask any more, nodded, and said, "Brother can make his own decisions." ”

Tongtian smiled, then ignored the matter and began to discuss with Houtu. However, he secretly thought to himself in his heart: "Hehe, Zhun Ti, this time I will definitely make you look good!"

It turned out that Tongtian suddenly sensed that the Zhun Ti Daoist was coming west, and after a little thought, he already understood that Zhun Ti must have come for the emperor this time. Tongtian suddenly had a plan in his heart, although Di Shun had made great contributions to the human race, he could not get much merit. In particular, Emperor Shun's failure to control the water greatly damaged his prestige, and it was not too helpful to the preaching, so Tongtian calculated in his heart and thought that it was not impossible to cede the position of the emperor to the West, so he no longer paid attention to it.

In fact, Tongtian's real intention this time is to plan to become a god in the future. In the previous life, when the Great Tribulation of the Gods was consecrated, the West was not involved in this Great Tribulation due to its remote location and the scarcity of sects. Although there are many more disciples in the West now than in the previous life, if they don't enter the East and don't get contaminated with cause and effect, then the Great Tribulation of the Gods will still not be their turn. Therefore, Tongtian wants to use the position of this emperor to lead him out, and when he is said to be a god, he will have no excuse to get out.

Thinking of this, Tongtian was overjoyed in his heart, and while discussing with Houtu, he secretly planned to himself.
