Chapter 37 Enpu Sanduo
The four of them carried Lin Fengsheng over the mountains and mountains, chose the deserted places to go, hunted some pheasants and hares to eat when they were hungry, and slept in the woods and fields at night, and gave him whatever they ate, but they did not treat him badly.
But the cords on his feet were untied during the day, and at night when he slept they were tied again, like a prisoner's captive. A few people knew that his footwork was magical, so they naturally didn't dare to be careless. He felt uncomfortable in his heart, but he couldn't do anything about it. Lin Fengsheng talked to them, and several people ignored them.
After four or five days, the terrain became higher and higher, and the climate became colder and colder in the morning and evening. In the distance, I saw a snowy peak protruding in the distance, and the highest point had been submerged in the clouds, and the silver light shone under the sun, like a jade dragon with its head high. Ah Liang said: "After the snow mountain gate in front, we will go to some of my land, we will go to my house to eat a few meals, sleep for a while, and then go to the northeast." ”
The old man surnamed Lu said: "It's okay, this mountain is high and the road is far away, even if the emperor Lao'er really sends troops to chase him, he will not catch up so quickly." We might as well rest in these parts. ”
Another person also said: "This is very good, these days I have been sneaking away, and I can't drink a sip of wine, which is really suffocating my old slaughter." A few people pulled Lin Fengsheng to speed up his pace and walk towards the snowy mountain.
It is full of high mountains and deep valleys, and the roads are rugged and difficult to navigate, which is the terrain where the dead horses run on the mountain. It wasn't until 10 p.m. that I saw a large town. This place was originally under the jurisdiction of Shanju County, but the chieftains in the territory were not unified, and the imperial court control was already in name only. This town, called Sanzhen, is an important town leading to Tibet on the Ancient Tea Horse Road, and there are frequent exchanges between caravans and merchants.
After entering the town, the man surnamed Tu said, "Brother Ah Liang, how far is your house? Ah Liang said: "It's not far away, and you will be there in half an hour." ”
At this time, the past merchants stayed and ate one after another, and the fragrance of wine and food wafted out from the wine shop, and the person surnamed Tu was groaning in his stomach, and Lin Fengsheng couldn't help but swallow his salivation.
Seeing this, the old man surnamed Lu smiled and said, "It seems that our Royal Highness the prince is hungry, Brother Ah Liang, we might as well just throw ourselves here." ”
Another person also said: "What Lao Lu said is that it is better to rest here tonight, and it is just time to stop by tomorrow." ”
Ah Liang pondered for a moment and said, "Let's have some wine and rice first, brother, I will go back to my hometown in Baisha anyway." ”
The person surnamed Tu said obscenely: "My brother misses his wife, you bear with it first, I'm afraid that there will be fewer women in the Shama Department." ”
Lin Fengsheng had a slight fever at the root of his ears, secretly snorted, and said in his heart: "It's not serious!"
Ah Liang Zhengse said: "Brother Tu misunderstood, my brother wanted to go to Beiyue Temple to kowtow to incense, and asked for the blessing of the three gods." ”
While talking, several people entered a wine shop and asked for three catties of sorghum wine, a large pot of copper pot to cook pork ribs and a few large bowls of rice. The old man surnamed Lu untied the rope in Lin Fengsheng's hand, let him eat by himself, and said, "Brother Ah Liang, what kind of god is this Sanduo? ”
Ah Liang said: "Sanduo is the god of war of some of us, and his magical powers are vast, and this time it is not good to go out of the school, but I am afraid that he did not worship well before leaving." ”
The person surnamed Tu Ha Lu Ha Da Lu smiled: "I didn't expect Brother Ah Liang to be so superstitious. If that Sanduo Great God really has such a miracle, then some of your troops will not be oppressed by other tribes and cannot raise their heads. ”
Ah Liang held back his anger and said: "You are not one of those people, you don't know the supernatural powers of the three great gods, so it's better not to talk nonsense." ”
The man surnamed Tu sneered a few times, stopped talking, and picked up the bowl to eat. The old man surnamed Lu smiled and said: "Brother Ah Liang, don't be angry, you might as well tell us about the miracles of the three great gods, Lao Tu will bow down in his heart, and he will not dare to blaspheme the gods anymore." The man surnamed Tu snorted, but he still drank and ate without raising his head.
Ah Liang said: "Let's eat first, and the younger brother will give a detailed notice on the way to Beiyue Temple." So they stopped talking, and each bowed his head and ate his bowl.
A few people left the town and headed to the northwest, and Ah Liang told the origin of the three gods: "Some of us moved from the early Tang Dynasty to Sanji, drove out Pu Xianman, and settled in Baishaba. At that time, there were many tribes in the land, and they were at war with each other, just as they are now, and of course our ancestors were inevitably involved. Later, the ancestor had a dream, and he dreamed that someone said to him: I am a god from the north, my name is Sanduo, you are an upright and generous person, and you are very much appreciated by me, and I am willing to help your tribe become strong and establish a unified kingdom. Speaking of this, his face was quite proud, and he was very proud of the fact that the ancestor had been favored by the gods, and then said: "After that person finished speaking, he turned into a white deer and ran towards the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain. From then on, whenever the ancestors led their clansmen to fight, a general wearing white armor, wearing a white helmet, a white horse under his crotch, and holding a silver spear would appear on the battlefield to help in the battle. This general is valiant and invincible, and our tribe will naturally win every battle. The strange thing is that whenever the battle is over, the wind will blow, the rain will pour, the battlefield will be dark, and when the wind and rain will stop, the fierce general who helped the battle will disappear without a trace. Later, our tribe won many victories, and finally established the Maha Edict. ”
The man surnamed Tu Ha Lu Ha Da Lu smiled and said: "He is wearing such white clothes, is he wearing linen and filial piety?" If he is so powerful, why don't you come out to help in the war now, and let some of you be bullied by other tribes?"
Ah Liang glared at him fiercely, and then said: "Later, our ancestor became a king, and one night the three great gods gave him a dream, saying that since I bless you, you should offer to me, and you can offer me three animals every day. The ancestors did not dare to slack off, and burned incense and paper every day to slaughter animals and worship. After a long time, the livestock in the tribe were increasingly consumed, and the three gods never appeared again, so the tribesmen could not help but complain. After the three great gods learned about it, they told the ancestors in a dream, since your intentions are not sincere, then I will also go back to the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, and I will return to you twice as much as your previous offerings. After saying that, he turned into a gust of wind and disappeared. The next day, we had a tenfold increase in livestock. After a pause, he said solemnly and frustratedly: "The ancestor regretted it, so he wanted to invite him back again, so he took his clan to the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, and sure enough, he saw the white deer that was exactly the same as in the dream, but the white deer ran when he saw people, and he couldn't get close to it at all." The clansmen had no choice but to release hunting dogs to chase, but Bailu was the embodiment of a god, and where could he chase it, whether it was releasing hunting dogs or trapping, he could never catch it. Finally, one day, the people found the trace of the white deer again, so they sent hunting dogs to chase after it. The hound chased for a while, and suddenly surrounded a white stone and barked wildly, people believed that this stone was transformed by the three great gods, so they carried it down the mountain and enshrined it in the Beiyue Temple. ”
The person surnamed Tu said: "Ha Luha, I really love to dream, everyone loves to dream, and the whole world is dreaming, and some people will believe this kind of coaxing children." Ridiculous, ridiculous. ”
Ah Liang pulled out his long knife with a swipe and shouted: "The surname is Tu, why do you repeatedly insult our gods!
The man surnamed Tu sneered and said, "You think I'm afraid of you?" I want to see if your three great gods will come to your aid." Shaking the big ring knife in his hand, the iron rings on the back of the knife hit each other and clanged. The old man surnamed Lu and another person hurriedly stepped forward to persuade him.
Lin Fengsheng said in his heart: "This person's storytelling ability is much better than that of Brother Duan, but it is a bit ridiculous to confuse the rise and fall of this tribe with the gods, if there are really gods to protect these barbarians, wouldn't they help the abuse?"
Ah Liang and the person surnamed Tu scolded each other foul language for a while, and finally did not do anything under the persuasion of the other two people. After the two of them made such a fuss, no one spoke, just walked silently behind Ah Liang.
After walking for more than half an hour, they had reached the foot of the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, and several people climbed step by step along a path up the mountain, and soon came to a foothill. I saw the ancient Baisen in front of me, and there were four or five tiled houses.
Ah Liang said: "In front of you is the Beiyue Temple, if you want to go in, you can go in, and if you don't want to go in, stay here and wait." ”
The man surnamed Tu muttered: "Who the hell rarely looks at those bulls, ghosts, snakes, and gods, my old Tu has never believed in these." So saying, he found a stone and sat down, and the other man sat down with him.
Lin Fengsheng said: "I have always respected the gods and Buddhas, and I also want to go in and worship." Ah Liang said: "Since the prince has a heart, I, Ah Liang, welcome it very much." ”
The old man surnamed Lu said: "These three gods are so powerful, there must be a statue in the temple, and I will also go in to pay respects." He turned to the other man and said, "Brother Danba, aren't you going either?" the man named Danba shook his head.
