Lan Caihe said: "It's passed." ”

Zhang Guo said: "Turn east from the ten-way intersection, and after a short walk, you will reach the temple." ”

Lan Caihe said: "So we walked through?"

Zhang Guo said: "If we don't go over, we won't be able to see each other now." ”

He Xiangu said: "This is to let the four of us meet Zhang Guolao first." ”

Zhang Guo said: "It's very strange, there are really not many women in the world who go out of the rivers and lakes, I didn't expect that there will be any fairy Gu who came to the Eight Immortals, it seems that the eight of us will be able to meet today, go, let's go back again, go to the temple together, maybe the three of them have arrived early and are waiting for us." ”

So, the four immortals turned around and followed Zhang Guolao backwards.

Along the way, they talked, and before they knew it, they came to the temple. But see this temple, looks very majestic and mighty, the temple of Yangzhou was very famous at that time, the temple is big and majestic, so the temple of Yangzhou can be regarded as a view at that time, but it is such a temple, in the last years of the Ming Dynasty, the Qing army entered the customs, the Qing army went south to destroy the Southern Ming Dynasty, the famous general of the Southern Ming Dynasty Generalissimo Shi Kefa, when defending Yangzhou in Yangzhou, led the Ming army to fight to the death with the Qing army, and defended Yangzhou, so that the Qing army could not attack Yangzhou for a long time, so that the Qing army suffered heavy casualties under the city of Yangzhou, so later the Qing army in Yangzhou when the defenders ran out of food, attacked Yangzhou with fire and made Yangzhou in a sea of fire, and burned the Ming army with heavy casualtiesThe fire also burned a lot of ordinary people, but also burned many places of majestic buildings, the temple of Yangzhou, was burned into ashes in this fire, since then, the temple disappeared in Yangzhou City. After the Qing army broke the city of Yangzhou, because they hated the soldiers and civilians of Yangzhou to defend Yangzhou, they let them die a lot of Qing troops under the city of Yangzhou, so there was a rumor of the ten-day massacre of the Qing army in Yangzhou, which was also called the ten days of Yangzhou by later people, which is what happened.

Looking at the temple in front of him, although this time he also went through the great battle between the Yan army and the Ming army in Yangzhou City, but in the temple, there was no trace of war at all, and people came and went in and out of the temple, but it was the same as if there was no war.

The five people came to the temple, Zhang Guo came down to the little donkey, found a shop and put the little donkey on it, and asked the shopkeeper to feed the donkey with forage, and then walked towards the temple with Lu Dongbin, He Xiangu, Han Xiangzi, Lan Caihe. Before entering the temple, the dress and appearance characteristics of these five people attracted people's attention, and people all cast puzzled and mysterious glances, and some people couldn't help but say: "Seeing them, it looks like eight immortals." ”

Then there was a saying: "The Eight Immortals are eight people, and they are only five people, is this the Eight Immortals? They are just dressed up like this." ”

Together, these five people didn't care what others were saying, and they directly entered the three temples of the temple under the guidance of Zhang Guolao. What is the temple of the three gods, it is said that the temple of Yangzhou at that time, at that time was famous by the temple of the three gods, the legend is that on the temple of the three gods, there are three immortals, one in the middle is the Jade Emperor, the one on the left is the Buddha, the one on the right is the salvation Guanyin, these three people have been sitting on the throne of the temple of the three gods for many years, facing the south and the back to the north, the Jade Emperor is full of majesty, the Buddha has a subtle smile on his face, the salvation Guanyin, holding the green leaves and dusting there to look at the world, it seems that he is going to save the suffering.

These three gods are all made of golden bodies, but the Salvation Guanyin is a powder-faced tulle, a gauze skirt like a white mist, which looks attached to the golden body and elegant. Anyone who comes to the temple has to come to the temple to offer incense, so the temple looks crowded and crowded.

Zhang Guolao, Lu Dongbin, He Xiangu, Han Xiangzi, Lan Caihe, these five people came to the Three Gods Temple, and everyone suddenly came to five people dressed as eight immortals, all of them were eight immortals, so some of them began to flash incomprehensibly, so these five people came to the three gods of the Three Gods Temple under the mysterious gaze of everyone, and Zhang Guolao began to incense.

At this time, some people whispered: "Look, the eight immortals have also come to incense the three gods." ”

But at this time, I heard Zhang Guo Lao incense again: "The three gods of heaven, earth and the world, are respected by all ten thousand people in the world, Zhang Guo Lao has come to offer the three gods three ways of immortal incense, praying that our eight immortals can meet in front of the three gods in the temple today." ”

After speaking, after finishing the incense, he kowtowed three more times and stepped aside.

The second one came up to offer incense to Lu Dongbin, and everyone looked at Lu Dongbin and lit three incense sticks, and some said: "Sure enough, this is the Eight Immortals, this is Lu Dongbin, today we see the real immortals, it is the Eight Immortals who want to meet in the Three Temples and the Eight Immortals." ”

But at this moment, I heard Lu Dongbin incense and said: "The three gods of heaven, earth and earth, today Lu Dongbin is here to offer incense to the three gods, and pray for the three gods to let our eight immortals meet in the temple of the three gods." ”

After speaking, he also kowtowed three times and stepped aside.

The third is He Xiangu, but seeing that He Xiangu also lit three incense sticks, he said to the three gods: "Three gods, today I, He Xiangu, am here, and I specially put on three incense paths, praying to the gods to let our eight immortals meet in the temple of the three gods." ”

After saying that, he stepped aside.

The fourth place is Han Xiangzi, and the fifth place is Lan Caihe, these five people finished the incense one by one, and some of the people said: "They are really the eight immortals, it seems that the eight immortals are specially going to the temple to gather today, and we can see the eight immortals today." ”

Before they finished speaking, there was another humane: "Look, there are really two more immortals outside, look at it." ”

So, people rushed outward, wanting to go outside to see what the two immortals looked like.

When Zhang Guo Lao saw this, he said: "The gods really have spirits, but those two are here?"

Lan Caihe said: "Could it be Tie Guan Li and Han Zhongli, maybe the two of them have already found each other." ”

Before he finished speaking, he heard someone outside: "Who said that Tie Guan Li and Han Zhongli? It's that my Uncle Cao Guo and Tie Guan Li have arrived, and they want to come to the Three Gods Temple to meet the Eight Immortals, listen to the voice, isn't Lan Caihe and Lu Dongbin, He Xiangu, and Han Xiangzi already here?"

He Xiangu couldn't help but be overjoyed when she heard this: "Uncle Cao Guo, not only the four of us are here, but also Zhang Guolao is here. ”

As he spoke, Uncle Cao Guo walked in with Tie Guan Li, and Tie Guan Li said as he entered: "It seems that we are all going to meet together today, and now Han Zhongli has not yet come." ”

So, I came in front of the three gods in the temple of the three gods, they all met one by one, and they saw the ceremony, Uncle Cao Guo and Tie Guan Li gave incense to the three gods one by one, and the meeting of the seven immortals, the atmosphere suddenly rose, and the people who came to see it were like a fried pot, and they all saw the true gods and the true eight immortals today. People's curiosity has even raised their hearts to their throats, and they are all looking with their eyes open and stretching their heads out, for fear that they will not see the opportunity to lose this great immortal fate.

Zhang Guo Lao saw that the Seven Immortals had already met together, but Han Zhongli had not yet appeared, so he couldn't help but say: "Now that our Seven Immortals have met, where are these Eight Immortals Han Zhongli?"
