However, it was said that after the Antarctic Immortal Weng said that Ji sent Ji Chang to convene the princes of the world to the court, he returned to the Yuxu Palace and handed over the decree to Yuan Shi Tianzun.

Yuan Shi Tianzun asked again, "How is Jiang Shang now?"

Antarctic Immortal Weng smiled: "Ziya is good now, and he has already married a wife a few days ago. ”

Yuan Shi Tianzun sighed again: "It's a pity that Jiang Shang is in his body, and it is difficult to achieve immortal dao in this life." When the time comes, you will cross him back to the mountain gate, and you will not be in vain with his master and apprentice. ”

The two of them were silent for a while.

It is said that the gods will rise, and the Taoist ancestor has a saying: the people of the gods are like flying bears, and the people of the gods worship which religion, and which religion the gods will be in charge of. Decades ago, Yuan Shi Tianzun accepted Jiang Ziya and Shen Gongbao as apprentices at the same time, but both of them were people who were destined for the gods, and they both flew like bears. Although Yuan Shi Tianzun didn't like Shen Gongbao, he also accepted him as a disciple. After years of thinking, it is also the reason for the enlightenment.

That Jiang Ziya has a good appearance and an honest appearance, and is liked by the people who explain the sect; Shen Gongbao has a treacherous face, although he is cultivating and improving rapidly, but he has a mediocre relationship with the immortals of the sect, but he has many friendships with the sect.

One day, but it was after Tianzun returned to the mountain from the Netherworld Blood Sea. Primordial in the Jade Void Palace to attract Antarctic immortals.

Tianzun sat on the Eight Treasures Cloud Light Throne, but said: "So it's time for Jiang Shang to go down the mountain, you go." ”

The Antarctic Immortal Weng comprehended Tianzun's intention and retreated.

After a while, Tianzun smiled slightly, summoned the white crane boy, and said, "Please invite your uncle Jiang Shang to come here." ”

The white crane boy took the order and went to the peach orchard of Kunlun Mountain to invite Jiang Ziya, and saw Jiang Shang preaching the teachings.

Jiang Ziya hurriedly went to the main hall of the Jade Void Palace, and came to the main hall and saluted directly: "Disciple Jiang Shang pays a visit to the master, and the master has a long life." ”

Yuan Shi Tianzun opened his eyes, looked at Jiang Ziya, understood in his heart, and sighed secretly: This Jiang Shang is really hopeless in cultivation, and he can only do some small tricks until now, which is difficult to achieve.

Yuan Shi Tianzun's mind was in a hurry, but in an instant: "How many years have you been in Kunlun?"

Jiang Ziya's face was respectful, and after a while, he said: "The disciple went up the mountain at the age of thirty-two, and now he is seventy-two years old. The disciple has been cultivating in the mountains for forty years. ”

Yuan Shi Tianzun sighed again in his heart: "You were born with a thin life, and it is difficult to achieve immortal paths, so you can only receive the blessings of that world." The soup has been exhausted, and the Zhou room is in full swing. You and I worked for the gods, went down the mountain to help the master, as a general, it was not in vain that you went up the mountain to practice for 40 years. This is not a place for you to live for a long time, so you can pack up and go down early. ”

Jiang Ziya devoted himself to cultivating, and when he heard where he was willing here, he hurriedly begged: "The disciple is a true monk and cultivates." After years of hard work, I have also practiced for many years, although it is a mustard and a needle, I hope that the teacher will be merciful and return to consciousness. The disciple is willing to practice in the mountains, and he will not dare to be greedy for the wealth of Hongchen, and he hopes that the teacher will not drive Jiang Shang down the mountain. ”

Yuan Shi Tianzun's face remained unchanged: "Your fate is like this, you will listen to the way of heaven, how can you disobey?"

At this time, the Antarctic Immortal Weng entered the palace, and he also stepped forward to persuade him: "Ziya, the opportunity is rare, and the time must not be lost; Although you are going down the mountain, when you are done, you will have the day to go up the mountain. ”

Jiang Ziya's eyes looked at Yuan Shi Tianzun in a daze, and when he saw Tianzun nodding, he had to obey the order to go down the mountain.

Jiang Ziya went out of the palace to pack his bags, and Yuan Shi Tianzun looked at the Antarctic Immortal, and the Antarctic Immortal Weng also nodded in response.

Jiang Ziya packed his bags, went to the Yuxu Palace to hand over the decree, bid farewell, and knelt down and said, "The disciple led the teacher's decree down the mountain, when will he return in the future?"

Tianzun bowed slightly and said: "You go down the mountain now, I have eight verses to send you, and there will be fulfillment in the future, you can ponder by yourself:

In the past 20 years, the United States has been patient and safe.

Fishing rods on the stone of the river, there is a clever visit to Zixian.

Assist the Holy Monarch as the father, and the ninety-three worship will hold the military power.

The princes will meet in Wujia, and the ninety-eight gods will be sealed for another four years. ”

After Tianzun finished speaking, he said: "Although you go, there is still time to go up the mountain." ”

Jiang Ziya bid farewell to Yuan Shi Tianzun and explained the people, and sent him off with his own Antarctic immortals. The Antarctic Immortal Weng went to the Jade Void Palace to see Yuan Shi Tianzun again, and the two had a conversation.

Antarctic Immortal Weng said: "Teacher, that Shen Gongbao has already listened to the previous words, and I look at its appearance, and I am quite angry. Is it a bit dangerous for Ziya to go?"

Yuan Shi Tianzun said: "This matter may be okay. In the past, Jiang Shang and Shen Gongbao went up the mountain together, and they both flew like bears. It is difficult to make a decision for a teacher, but it is all under the door. After many years of experience as a teacher, I have already understood. Daozu once said, 'The person who is a god has the image of a flying bear', at that time, everyone thought that it was just one person, but now it seems that it is two people. ”

The Antarctic Immortal Weng couldn't help but exclaim when he heard this, but he was a little out of shape in the Jade Void Palace. You must know that the immortals of the Interpretation Sect are not friendly to Shen Gongbao, if Shen Gongbao is the person who is the god, wouldn't it be a great disadvantage to the immortals of the Interpretation Sect.

Yuan Shi Tianzun was not surprised, and then said: "It is this Shen Gongbao and Jiang Shang. Previously, the soul of the teacher was entrusted to the way of heaven, and these two people had already worshiped in my teaching, thinking that the teacher could calculate. The two gods are bright and dark, and they just coincide. When the two entered the mountain, Ziya was helped by Shen Gongbao, and the two were also entangled in cause and effect. I chose Ziya to preside over the affairs of the gods, and the communion between the Shen Gong Leopard and those people with scales and armor is also for you to let go. Just because you can borrow the cause and effect of the two people, and connect the gods, how can the people with scales and armor compare with my teachings. ”

Only then did the Antarctic Immortal Weng understand the intention of Yuan Shi Tianzun, and he praised it in his mouth.

That Jiang Ziya left the Yuxu Palace in Kunlun Mountain, but for a while there was nowhere to go. You must know that Jiang Ziya was originally a lonely person, but now he is more than seventy, where are there any relatives to take refuge in.

Jiang Ziya stopped and stopped all the way, but he thought that there was a brother in Chaoge City who was married when he was a child, so he went to Chaoge to find him, anyway, he didn't have anywhere to go for a while.

When Jiang Ziya found the Song family outside Chaoge City, his young brother was really alive. The two drank wine and said goodbye to each other.

Jiang Ziya settled in the house of his brother, Song Yi. And this Song Yiren is obviously also a warm-hearted person, seeing that Jiang Ziya is already in his early seventies and has no achievements in cultivation, but he has not yet married a wife, so he wants to marry a wife for his brother.

Coincidentally, there is a Ma Hong outside the city who is also familiar with Song Yiren. But this Mahon has a daughter, who is sixty-eight years old and has not yet married. Song Yiren thought about it, and happened to be a wife with Jiang Ziya, so he went to Ma's house to propose marriage. The daughter of the Ma Hong family can't get married until she is sixty-eight, and now someone proposes marriage, she is naturally happy, and she is willing to set up a family affair.

Song Yiren went home and mentioned it to Jiang Ziya. Although Jiang Shang has been cultivating for many years, the seven feelings are still there, and the people of Xuanmen are not taboo about marriage, so they agree to it.

Song Yi's family business is not small, and he contributed money and efforts to manage his brother's marriage. In later generations, Su Shi once had a poem "A pear flower presses a begonia", but at this time, Jiang Ziya is "a pear flower presses an iron tree".

And Jiang Ziya also settled down in Chaoge and stayed.
