Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Djinn Roars and Conquers Huashan
Gengchen was ordered by Dayu to go to Kunlun Mountain and ask the Queen Mother of the West to send the gods to help remove Huashan. In less than an hour, the pen fun pavilion www.biquge.info came to Kunlun Mountain. As soon as I arrived at Kunlun Mountain, I saw Lu Wu, the mountain god who guarded Kunlun Mountain.
Lu Wu stepped forward and asked, "Gengchen doesn't control the water with Dayu, what is the matter with returning to Kunlun Mountain?"
Gengchen asked: "I came to implore the Queen Mother of the West on behalf of Dayu, there is something serious." Lu Wu, do you know where the Queen Mother is today?"
Lu Wu said: "The Queen Mother is staying in the Yaochi Palace today, I think I know that you are coming back today!"
Gengchen said: "Thank you Lu Wu for your advice, I'll go first." "Saying that, he drove the clouds straight to Yaochi. Lu Wu shook his head and walked away.
Gengchen came to the front of the Yaochi Palace, fell into the clouds, and saw that there was already a fairy standing outside the palace gate of the Queen Mother of the West, waiting for him.
The fairy said: "The queen mother knows that you are back to the mountain, and she specially ordered me to go out of the palace to greet you, please follow me to the palace to see the queen mother." ”
Gengchen arched his hand and replied, "Gengchen obeys." "Then follow the fairy into the palace.
In the palace, there are strange flowers and plants on both sides of the corridor, and there are fairy incense burning on several cases, and the Queen Mother of the West sits on the leisurely chair, and there are fairies standing on both sides.
Gengchen stepped forward and saluted the Queen Mother of the West. said: "Gengchen saw the Queen Mother, and greeted the Queen Mother on behalf of Xia Bo, wishing the Queen Mother a blessed life and prosperity." ”
The Queen Mother of the West asked: "Gengchen, how many years have you waited for the four heavenly generals to follow Dayu to control the water?"
Gengchen replied: "Back to the Queen Mother, the four of us have been following Dayu for ten years." ”
The Queen Mother of the West said again: "In the past ten years, the four of you have worked hard. You all did a great job and I'm satisfied. Stick with it for another two or three years and you'll be successful. When the time comes, I will give you a positive result. ”
Gengchen bowed upwards and said, "Thank you for the cultivation of the Queen Mother." ”
The Queen Mother of the West said again: "Gengchen, I already know your intention. You go back and say to Dayu that three days later is Jiazi Day, at noon. I will send the river god giant spirit to Huashan, open Huashan and Shouyang Mountain, and let the water of the Yellow River flow eastward. ”
Gengchen arched his hand and replied: "Gengchen obeys, so go back and tell Xia Bo to get ready." With that, he turned around and walked down the hall. When he came to the outside of the temple, he rode the clouds and went all the way to the east. Return to the Dayu camp at the foot of Huashan. I saw Dayu's order. said: "Qi Qi Xia Bo, I returned to Kunlun Mountain, and met the Queen Mother of the West in the palace of Yaochi, and the Queen Mother of the West said that she already knew your request, and on Jiazi Day three days later, she would send the river god giant spirit to go down to the earth to open Mount Hua and Shouyang Mountain, and let the water of the Yellow River flow smoothly eastward. Prepare yourself. ”
Dayu was overjoyed when he heard it. said: "Thank you Queen Mother Xi for your help. In this way, I can save a lot of time and help me succeed in water control as soon as possible. Gengchen has worked hard, go down and rest. ”
Dayu took into account that the river god giant spirit came to open Huashan and Shouyang Mountain, and there would be a very big move at that time. At present, his camp is located at the foot of Huashan Mountain, which is not only unsafe, but also affects the exertion of the river god's giant spirit.
The next day, after breakfast, Dayu ordered 500 soldiers to move back to the camp. Retreat to a place in Pingyang, ten miles away from Huashan. Here you can see Huashan, but also can not be affected by the mountain.
Dayu led four heavenly generals, four generals, and five little brothers to Huashan and Shouyang Mountain to investigate, and carefully looked at the mountains and water flow here. It compares the surrounding topography, landforms, and distance distances. Pythagorean held a measuring ruler in his hand, and the ninth chapter held a big abacus in his hand, one measure, one calculation, and he was busy until dark before returning to the camp.
On the third day, just after dawn, everyone woke up early. After breakfast, he left the camp and headed for Huashan. Dayu led everyone to the foot of Mount Hua, and saw a white cloud floating down from the peak of Mount Hua, and when the white cloud floated to him, he walked down from the clouds to Mount Huashan Shenhua and his white dragon
After seeing Dayu, they greeted each other. Huashan said: "Xia Bo got up so early!"
Dayu said: "There is a god to come to cheer, will add a lot to the feat of the giant spirit of Huashan, see the god, my heart is more bottom." ”
The god of Huashan said: "Why don't you come to me! The immortals of the three mountains and five mountains, the king, the lake and the four seas, heard that the Queen Mother of the West sent the river god giant spirit to come to the two mountains of Huashan and Shouyang today, and they all came to watch this magnificent feat! I am afraid that there will be hundreds of immortals!"
When Boyi and several other little brothers heard the words of Huashan God, they immediately jumped up for joy and shouted in unison: "Okay, you can see many immortals today!"
The four heavenly generals and the four mortal generals were also very excited, and they were all happy to be able to see this unprecedented feat and see the grand occasion of all the gods and immortals gathering in Taihua.
While everyone was talking, I saw a yellow cloud flying from the southeast direction, and when I saw it clearly, it turned out to be Chongyi, the god of Zhongyue Songshan, who rode his yellow dragon out of the clouds. Dayu stepped forward to greet the god of Songshan, and the old friends met each other, and they were particularly affectionate.
Songshan Shen said: "Xia Bo is not harmed! The last time Songshan was farewell, it was more than a year, and the Yellow River was still well controlled?"
Dayu said: "Everything is still going well, but I still have to drive the Queen Mother of the West to send the river god giant spirit down to help open Huashan." ”
Songshan God said: "With the help of the Queen Mother of the West, no matter how high this Huashan is, it is not a problem." ”
After a while, another green cloud flew from the east, and when it came closer, out of the green cloud came Mount Tai Tai Dai and his green dragon. Seeing Dayu, he bowed his hand and said: "Xia Bo is not harmed! Today, the Queen Mother of the West sent the river god giant spirit to help the two mountains of Huashan and Shouyang, which is really a feat in the prosperous era, and it is gratifying. ”
After a while, a cloud flew from the north, and a red cloud flew from the south. When they came to the front, they came out of the clouds respectively from the north Yue Heng Mountain God Heng Ming and the south Yue Yue Mountain God Xuan Wu.
The god of Beiyue Hengshan is three feet tall, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, a blue face and a red beard, a pair of dragon eyes, and a sea mouth, like a galloping horse.
Nanyue is a mountain god, with a height of one zhang, a red face, a red beard, a pair of tiger eyes, and an estuary, and his sex is like fire.
The two mountain gods saluted Dayu together, and said: "Beiyue Hengshan God Hengming, Nanyue Mountain God Hengwu see Xia Bo, today in order to cheer for Xia Bo Mountain, do not summon yourself." ”
Dayu said: "The two mountain gods came to cheer, Dayu is deeply honored. ”
Although Dayu is the first time to see the two mountain gods of Nanyue and Beiyue, the two mountain gods are no strangers to Dayu.
It is also a rare thing for the gods of the five mountains to gather together today, so they greet each other and greet each other.
The gods and immortals were talking, and suddenly saw a flower in the water of the Yellow River, and a white mist rose, and there was a god standing above the white mist, only to see the slender figure of this fairy, wearing a white silk robe, wearing a white jade crown with bundled hair, holding a white folding fan, white lips and red lips, three strands of black beard, handsome and chic, suave and graceful, just a left eye.
Dayu saw that this immortal was none other than Hebo Fengyi. Hebo walked ashore and bowed to Dayu. Said: "Xia Bo is unharmed, ten years of water control, and now it has achieved great results, the flood in the world has receded nine-tenths, the merit is in the present generation, and the benefit is in the future." ”
Dayu returned the salute and said: "Thanks to the help of the gods from all walks of life." Much appreciated. ”
He Bo said again: "I heard that today I invited the river god giant spirit to hold Huashan, I, Hebo, can't miss this opportunity, I want to witness this feat with my own eyes, and cheer for Xia Bo by the way." After that, he went over to talk to the gods of Wuyue Mountain.
Several heavenly generals, mortal generals, little brothers and Tu Jiao's mother and son also gathered around the immortals, introducing each other, saluting, and talking. Everyone was happy, lively and lively like a festival.
Several of the little brothers have ridden the green dragon of the god of Mount Tai and the yellow dragon of the god of Songshan. He also drank daffodil wine with Hebo. Therefore, it is more familiar than the other three mountain gods.
Seeing that Hebo also came to cheer, they all came over to talk to Hebo.
He Bo saw that several little brothers had grown taller, from the childish children of the year, to young people, especially Tu Jiao, from a slender girl, has become Dayu's wife - a plump young woman.
He Bo sighed: "Time is really like an arrow, the sun and the moon are like a shuttle, and a new generation is better than the old!
Bo Yi said: "Immortals will not get old, you are still as personable as ten years ago." ”
Shen Nongzi said: "Boyi's sentence is right, immortals will not grow old, you look at me, I am still as young and handsome as ten years ago." ”
Pythagorean said: "Yes, you only wore a hood ten years ago, with a bare butt, and today you still wear only a pocket, still with a bare ass." ”
Shen Nongzi said: "Don't look at me only wearing a pocket and a bare buttocks, that's also a fairy." ”
Xiao Yu was a newcomer, he didn't know everyone, and he couldn't interject, just watching them bicker.
When He Bo saw Tu Jiao, he said: "Miss Tu Jiao is getting more and more beautiful, although she has become a mother, she has not changed her appearance, and she is still as beautiful as she was back then." ”
Tu Jiao said: "This is thanks to Hebo's guidance, since I heard you say that eating daffodils can keep your face, you will pick daffodils to eat everywhere in the future, and when you pick a lot, you will take them as a meal, and it really has a miraculous effect." Hebo doesn't lie to me. ”
He Bo said: "How dare I deceive Miss Tu Jiao, I will benefit immensely if I persist for a long time." “
While everyone was talking to the gods of Wuyue Mountain and Hebo, they saw that on the surrounding peaks and in the clouds, many immortals had come one after another, some came together, some in groups, and some in a group of three, a group of five, and a group of ten. They all stood on Huashan Mountain and Shouyang Mountain, waiting to watch the feat of the river god giant spirit holding Huashan. It is estimated that there are about a thousand immortals in total. There are many immortals who are waving to Dayu's side, and Dayu people are also waving to the gods.
At this moment, I suddenly saw a golden light flashing on the horizon in the southwest direction, and then flew towards Huashan.
In the blink of an eye, I saw the river god djinn standing on a yellow cloud studded with gold edges, and flew to the eastern peak of Huashan Mountain. But I saw that the giant spirit god was ten feet tall, with broad shoulders and thick waist. The body is wrapped diagonally in kudzu clothes, the chest is exposed, and the muscles are protruding on the arms, and there is a large jade bracelet on the left and right. A leopard skin is wrapped around his waist, revealing two tendonous legs. He has a bun on his head and a hairpin on it. A golden beard curly, a pair of ringed eyes, two round eyes, like two lanterns, shimmering and shining. A square sea mouth up to the root of the ear. Two big ears, like two pampas hanging on the sideburns. He was barefoot, like two sampans, with ten toes spread out, like ten hammers made of meat, all stout. There is also a large jade bracelet on each of the two ankles, which is the size of a wheel.
The river god Shiling stood on the east peak of Huashan, saluted Dayu at the bottom of the mountain, and said loudly: "Xia Bo is invited." On the orders of the Queen Mother of the West, this god came to break the two peaks of Huashan and Shouyang, please give an order from Xia Bo!"
The sound of speaking was like thunder in a sunny day, which shook the gravel on Huashan and rolled down the mountain, and the treetops above and below the mountain shook vigorously, shaking everyone's eardrums.
Dayu bowed his hand and said: "Queen Mother Doshi and Xie Zunshen helped, we have everything ready here and can start." ”
The river god djinn said: "Please lead Xia Bo to retreat a little more, so as not to fall and hurt yourself when you break the second mountain." “
Dayu led everyone to retreat one after another, until they withdrew for three or five miles, before they stood still, and the god giant spirit said: "Enough." After speaking, he jumped to the bottom of the mountain and stood between Huashan and Shouyang Mountain.
Everyone looked at the river god giant spirit, and saw that he was not very tall, not as high as the mountainside of Mount Hua, and his arms were stretched out to both sides, and he could not reach the two peaks.
Bo Yi said: "It turns out that the river god djinn is not as tall as I imagined. Just look at this guy, he can't reach the two peaks with his arms outstretched, how can he hold it? It seems that the gods sometimes talk big. ”
Shennongzai said: "Boyi, you are not allowed to slander the immortals, we immortals never say big things, you wait and see!"
Dayu said: "The Queen Mother of the West will not use the wrong person, people can not be disguised, and the river god giant spirit is a god in the sky, and the spell of the gods is immeasurable, let's look down!"
Shen Nongzi said: "I said that I must be able to, didn't you see thousands of immortals from all walks of life coming forward to watch? ”
While everyone was talking, they only heard the river god giant roaring "Wow, yes, yes", and shouted "Long". The body suddenly grew taller and taller. And the longer it grows, the higher it grows, the bigger it gets, and it gradually rises a lot higher than Mount Huashan and Shouyang Mountain.
At this time, the river god giant spirit is like a big bamboo shoot growing from between Huashan and Shouyang Mountain, embedded in the gap between the two mountains. Stand tall in the sky.
I saw that the river god giant spirit was facing west, with his back to the east, pulling out the lunge and kicking his left foot on the root of Shouyang Mountain, and his left foot on the halfway of the eastern peak of Huashan Mountain, and the left and right two big hands went up and down, pressing on the cliff of Huashan Mountain. Carried out the miracle. A thunderous roar and a shout: "Open"!
I could only hear the root of the mountain connected by the two peaks of Huashan and Shouyang, which made a "click" sound that shook the earth and the earth, the peaks were shaking, the earth was trembling, and a blue light flashed in the sky.
Mount Hua and Mount Shouyang were opened. Huashan was moving slowly to the south, making a loud "boom" sound, like a huge wheel rolling over the earth. Smoke and dust rose from the foot of Huashan.
Hundreds of immortals from all walks of life who came to sightsee all shouted in unison: "Okay! Huashan has been opened! The giant spirit god is really brave!"
The body of the river god djinn is still growing taller and bigger, and his hands and feet are constantly increasing. Huashan is still moving backwards with a "boom". The gap between Huashan and Shouyang Mountain became wider and wider. The roots of Mount Hua rubbed violently against the earth, and fire and blue smoke came out, and the gravel burst out and the sky was full of dust.
Dayu stood in the distance, all the time watching the giant spirit god Huashan. In particular, the little brothers all widened their eyes, opened their mouths wide, held their breath, stared intently at the giant spirit god, stared at Huashan, and forgot to cheer and applaud, as if they were frozen.
After a pillar of incense, the rumbling sound stopped, the earth stopped shaking, and the smoke and dust gradually dissipated. Huashan stopped. The river god djinn was newly revealed in the smoke and dust. Looking at Huashan again, it has been pushed away for several miles.
Cheers, cheers, and applause were heard again. It was only then that the little brothers cheered with the sights, clapping their hands and stomping their feet.
The river god djinn looked down at the Yellow River again, and the river channel had been widened. It's just that the riverbed is too shallow. So he raised his big foot and stomped twice in the river, and the riverbed immediately deepened. A large amount of flood water accumulated in the upper reaches rushed down in an instant, like a wild horse that has escaped from the reins, and rushed straight to Sanmenxia.
The river god giant spirit god asked in a loud voice towards Dayu, "May I ask Xia Bo, is it enough?"
Dayu also shouted to the giant spirit god: "Enough, enough, stop it." ”
Only then did the river god djinn regain his strength, slowly retract the magic image, and return to his original height. jumped to the top of Mount Hua. Say goodbye to Dayu. said: "Xia Bo take care, the god has taken his leave, so I will go back to Kunlun Mountain and return to the Queen Mother of the West." With that, he rolled up the yellow clouds and flew westward. Dayu and others watched the river god giant spirit go away until it disappeared.
The gods who came to sightsee also left one after another. Wuyue Mountain God and Hebo also said goodbye to Dayu and went back to their respective mountains.
Dayu led everyone to the foot of Mount Hua to inspect. I saw that the cliff wall of the eastern peak of Huashan Mountain, which was held by the big hand of the river god giant spirit just now, had been deeply imprinted with the huge handprint of the river god. When I turned my head and looked at Shouyang Mountain, I saw that the roots of Shouyang Mountain had also been stepped out by the river god spirit.
Since then, Huashan, Shouyang Mountain and the Yellow River have changed their previous appearance and become what we see today. People call Chaoyang Peak, the eastern peak of Huashan Mountain, which is printed with the palm print of the river god giant spirit, "Cactus Peak".
Later poets have poems praising the river god giant spirit and saying: The giant spirit roars and shakes the two mountains, and the torrent rushes to the East China Sea.
