Chapter 284: The Assembly of Ten Thousand Laws (2)

As soon as the purple gold bowl was gone, the suction disappeared, and Tu Shan and the colorful butterfly girl were free. The two stood still, and then said to Xu Mo: "Thank you Master Mo for rescuing." ”

Xu Mo said: "Under Xu Mo, Mo Gongzi is a pseudonym. Then he beckoned, "Come here, both of you, for with me here, no one can drive you out." ”

The two stepped forward and thanked them again. The Caidie girl glanced at Xu Mo a few times, and said strangely: "Master Mo, it turns out that you are a person, and you ...... at my cousin's wedding last time."

Tu Shan's fear that these words would touch Xu Mo's privacy and make him dislike. Xiang Caidie's girl winked and asked her not to ask more.

Xu Mo had no intention of explaining more, and said lightly: "It's just a matter of solving a little private matter." ”

Seeing that he didn't want to say more, the girl said 'oh' and didn't dare to ask.

People kept coming in from outside, and the number of people was getting bigger and bigger. During this period, many people recognized the identities of Tu Shan and Caidie Girl, and wanted to drive them out, but they were all stopped by Xu Mo.

Seeing that the time was about ten o'clock in the morning, someone outside the martial arts arena suddenly sang loudly: "The Son of Heaven has arrived, and everyone greets him." ”

The scene fell silent for a moment, and everyone stood up at the same time. After a while, I saw a group of guards with guns walking through the middle of the field, followed by a group of palace maids, surrounded by a man in his early thirties, wearing imperial clothes, supported by two eunuchs, walking slowly, and a group of guards at the back.

All the people fell on their knees and saluted, shouting long live. Xu Mo blended in with the crowd, only symbolically bent over, but fortunately, there were many people, and everyone else knelt down and bowed their heads. He was so deep in the crowd that no one noticed what he was doing.

The emperor is the current emperor, and after he ascended the throne, he changed the yuan to the right. This year is the first year of Zhizheng, and this son of heaven is called Zhizheng Emperor. He has a long beard, his body is slightly fat, and although his demeanor is calm and calm, there is a faint melancholy between his eyebrows.

Emperor Zhizheng ascended the high platform and sat down on the throne in the center, and there were eunuchs to praise him. "Flat. ”

Everyone shouted in unison, 'Your Majesty'. Stand up. Emperor Zhizheng nodded, and continued: "Today's Ten Thousand Laws Conference, to discuss the way of immortality, everyone does not have to be formal. Bestow the seat. ”

The eunuch then sang, "Thank you." ”

The crowd thanked them. Then he sat down on the futon.

Emperor Zhizheng beckoned. Then two of the little eunuchs each carried a tray and stepped forward. One tray contained a set of garments, and the other tray contained a few small pieces. A jade gui, an edict, a pair of jade plates, and a few smaller ones, I don't recognize the name.

The edict was closed, and it was impossible to see what was written. The jade plate is facing everyone, but you can see a few boys on the front - Tongxuan Subtle and Holy True Monarch.

The two little eunuchs held the tray in their hands, walked up to Emperor Zhizheng, knelt down on one left and one right, and lifted the tray high above the top.

But I could hear Emperor Zhengdao say: "Rank, this Ten Thousand Laws Conference is dedicated to discussing the law of immortality. If anyone shines at this conference and dominates the leader, I will crown him as the subtle and holy true monarch of Tongxuan, the chief leader of the world's Taoist sects, shared by the whole country, and about brothers. ”

"This costume ......," he said, glancing at the costume and commanding, "Unfold." "One of the eunuchs beside him answered the word 'yes,' and stepped forward, and glanced at a guard near to the left, who laid down his weapon, and then stepped forward, and with the eunuch, each holding on to one side of his robe, and shook it open.

The robe turned out to be a set of imperial costumes, although the color of the clothes of the Son of Heaven is slightly different, but not much different, the robe has the same sun, moon and star patterns, and the same five-clawed golden dragon.

But I heard Emperor Zhizheng say again: "This costume is the true monarch's costume, rank, if there is a method of immortality, which one is this subtle and holy true monarch." ”

Everyone below listened to it and couldn't help but be moved.

Emperor Zhizheng smiled and said: "Today's Ten Thousand Laws Conference, no secular etiquette, everyone is a Taoist friend. Rank, if there is any magic method for longevity, please take it out. ”

After listening for a while, seeing that no one spoke, he waved his hand and smiled again: "Everyone in the ranks expresses their opinions, so you don't have to be restrained." ”

The eunuch next to him praised loudly: "Your Majesty has an edict, each expressing his own opinions, no need to be restrained." ”

Rao is like this, but it was still after a while, and only a person in the rear crowd stood up and shouted: "Your Majesty." "Go to the aisle in the middle of the field and bow down.

Emperor Zhizheng smiled and said, "Who is the surname of this Taoist friend, and where does he come from?" The eunuch beside him said loudly.

The man was about forty years old, wearing a blue Taoist robe, with a Taiji diagram on the front and back of his chest, bowed again, and responded respectfully: "Back to Your Majesty, the Xiaodao Dao is boundless, and it comes from the East China Sea. ”

Emperor Zhizheng smiled and said: "It turned out to be a Taoist friend from overseas, who came to speak recently. ”

"Yes. Wu Yazi agreed, stepped forward, and said again: "Xiaodao travels overseas all the year round, ten years ago, I happened to pass a fairy island, met a fairy Weng, there is a fairy peach tree on this island, Xiaodao is lucky, once took one, the taste is delicious, so far I think about it, can not or forget." ”

Emperor Zhizheng said: "It turns out that Daoyou still has such an adventure, which is enviable. ”

Xie Majesty praised. Wu Yazi continued: "Your Majesty, after Xiaodao eats the immortal peach, there is still a jujube kernel left, which has been carried with him for ten years. In recent years, a small technique can make the tree grow rapidly and grow in an instant, so I want to plant this fairy peach tree in this Ten Thousand Dharma Conference, and present it to Your Majesty, please allow Your Majesty. ”

When Emperor Zhizheng heard this, his face couldn't help but show joy, and he urged with a smile: "Daoist friends have such magical powers, can I not allow it! ”

"Yes, Your Majesty. The boundless man looked up at the sky, and stepped on the ground a few more times, as if choosing a suitable planting spot, and after a moment, took a few steps back, and stepped on the ground a few more times, and the underground made a thumping sound, like a drum.

Wu Yazi smiled: "This is the place." ”

As he spoke, he took out a shovel from his body, dug a pit underneath, reached into his arms and touched it, touched a jade box and came out, opened the jade box, and inside the box was a peach pit.

Emperor Zhizheng saw it on the high platform and shouted, "Fellow Daoist." Wait. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty. Hearing this, Wu Yazi hurriedly stopped, waiting for Emperor Zhizheng's command.

Emperor Zhizheng said: "Is this the peach pit of that immortal peach?"

Wu Yazi hurriedly said: "Your Majesty commands, nothing is allowed." As he spoke, he stepped forward and respectfully presented the peach pit.

Then a eunuch came down, took the peach pit, and presented it to Emperor Zhizheng. Emperor Zhizheng took it in his hand and looked left and right up and down a few times, but he didn't see any difference from ordinary peach pits.

smiled at the moment: "It turns out that the fairy peach pit is the same as the ordinary peach pit." ”

Wu Yazi hurriedly responded: "When Xiaodao first met. It's weird, too. I once asked the fairy in the same words. ”

Emperor Zhizheng said curiously: "Oh! What did that immortal man say?"

Wu Yazi said: "That immortal told Xiaodao. It turned out that this immortal peach tree evolved from an ordinary peach tree, but it absorbed the essence of heaven and earth, and then it became an immortal peach tree. ”

"I see. Emperor Zhizheng nodded. Seems to agree with his statement. He handed the peach pit to the eunuch beside him. He said to Wu Yazi again: "Daoist friends come and see." ”

The eunuch returned the peach pit to Wu Yazi.

"Yes. Wu Yazi answered, took the peach pit, and walked back to the pit where he had dug it. He put the peach pit into the pit and took out a small porcelain bottle from his body. The cork is uncorked, and a pungent aroma emanates from the bottle. Wu Yazi shook it lightly a few times, and the bottle didn't know what kind of liquid it contained, and it shook soundly.

Emperor Zhizheng asked again: "Fellow Daoist, what kind of liquid is it in your bottle, is it water? If it is water, how can it be so fragrant?"

Wu Yazi said with a smile: "Your Majesty, this is not ordinary water, but the morning dew picked by Xiaodao from the stamens of a hundred flowers, stained with the fragrance of a hundred flowers, and carefully refined by Xiaodao, it is rootless water. ”

Emperor Zhizheng asked again: "What is the use of this rootless water?"

Wu Yazi said: "You can grow another peach tree quickly." ”

"I see. Emperor Zhizheng said: "Daoist friends come and see again." ”

"Yes. Wu Yazi answered, poured the liquid from the porcelain vase into the pit, and then covered it with soil.

Emperor Zhizheng asked again: "Fellow Daoist, how long will it take for your peach tree to grow?"

Wu Yazi said with a smile: "If there is no rootless water, it will take at least hundreds of years, or even thousands of years, and with the rootless water carefully refined by Xiaodao, it will only take a moment." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and pointed to the ground where the peach tree was planted, "Your Majesty, please see, the fairy peach tree is about to sprout." ”

Not only Emperor Zheng, but everyone else also turned their heads to look over when they heard this. As soon as the words of the boundless son fell, he saw the soil break open, and two young buds were squeezed out of the soil.

When Xu Mo saw this, he couldn't help but think to himself: This Wuyanzi's method is similar to the method of the Taoist priest he met in Xinghua Village, except that one planted peach trees and the other planted Ruyi golden beans.

"It's so fast, Wuyazi Daoist is really amazing. Emperor Zhizheng couldn't help but praise.

Wu Yazi smiled: "Your Majesty doesn't know, my peach tree can grow faster." ”

Zhizheng Emperor Qi said: "Oh! Could it be that Daoist friends have other mysterious methods? Why don't you show them and let me see them." ”

Wu Yazi said: "The means of the trail only stop here, if you want to make the peach tree grow faster, you have to rely on your majesty." ”

"Borrow from me?" Emperor Zhizheng said more and more curiously: "I have never practiced any Taoist techniques in my life, what can I do to make this peach tree grow quickly?"

Wu Yazi said with a smile: "Although Your Majesty has not practiced any Taoist techniques, but with the dragon qi of the Son of Heaven, how can you compare with others? As long as Your Majesty is willing to blow on this immortal peach tree seedling, this seedling will have the dragon qi of the Son of Heaven under Your Majesty, and in a moment or three, it will be able to grow into a towering tree." ”

Xu Mo shook his head secretly when he heard this, and he was very disapproving, although this Wuyanzi had some means, he was actually just a sycophant.

Emperor Zhizheng listened to Wuyazi's words, became more and more happy, and said with great interest: "Since this is the case, I will try." As he spoke, he stood up from his throne.

The two eunuchs hurriedly stepped forward to help, but were repelled by Emperor Zhizheng with a wave of his hand, and got off the high platform alone and walked to the side of the boundless son. Wu Yazi hurriedly bowed and saluted, "Your Majesty has arrived." ”

Emperor Zhizheng smiled and asked, "Fellow Daoist of Wuyazi, how do I blow my air, is there anything particular?"

Wu Yazi pretended to pinch his fingers and calculated, "This is the time of Naisi, and it is best to blow in the northwest direction under the Majesty and Majesty." ”

Emperor Zhizheng chose an angle according to his words, bent down, aimed at the peach tree seedlings, and blew from the northwest.

After the peach tree seedlings broke the ground, they grew very slowly, and as a result, Emperor Zheng blew them out in one breath. The growth rate suddenly accelerates, from seedlings to small trees, branches and branches, and from small trees to seedlings. In a moment, the buds bloom on the seedlings, the buds bloom, and when the breeze blows, the petals fall off, and the peach fruit grows, and most of the peach fruit falls to the ground. Only three remained.

Peaches grow from small to large. It quickly grew into giant peaches, each of which was the size of a small watermelon, hanging on the peach tree and bending the branches.

Wu Yazi shook his head. A look of regret. Then he sighed again.

Emperor Zhizheng listened. He asked, "Why do you sigh?"

Wu Yazi said regretfully: "The magical power of the path is limited, so there are only three immortal peaches left in the entire tree. Everything else fell off. ”

Emperor Zhizheng comforted: "It's no wonder that Daoist friends are in this matter, since it is a fairy peach, if you get one, it is already a matter of right and wrong, not to mention that there are three more." ”

At this time, the three giant peaches were ripe, and when the breeze blew, the entire martial arts arena was full of peach fragrance. Wu Yazi bowed down and said, "Please pick peaches under Your Majesty." ”

Emperor Zhizheng liked it even more, walked up to the peach tree, and reached out to pick off the bottom giant peach. A palace maid approached with a tray, and Emperor Zhizheng picked the giant peach and put it in the tray. The two long ones were relatively high above the ground, and Emperor Zhizheng reached out for a while, but he couldn't touch them. He was in high spirits and commanded, "Bring a ladder, and I will pick the peaches with my own hands." Then one of the guards moved a ladder, and Emperor Zhizheng himself climbed up and picked the other two peaches.

Emperor Zhizheng returned to the throne, Gong'e washed the peach, and went forward again, Emperor Zhizheng used a silver knife to cut some peach flesh from a giant peach, sent it to his mouth to taste it, and then praised: "It's really a good peach, worthy of the name of the peach." ”

Suddenly remembered something, and asked with a smile: "Wuyazi Daoyou, what is the effect of your immortal peach, can people live forever if they eat it?"

Wu Yazi shook his head and said regretfully: "It is more than enough to prolong life, but immortality is not." ”

Emperor Zhizheng showed an obvious look of disappointment on his face when he heard this, and after a while, he said: "Wuyazi Taoist friends have meritorious deeds in offering peaches, sealing Wuya real people, and still giving three thousand taels of silver, a golden robe, a jade belt, and a waist card, which can be walked in the inner palace." ”

Wu Yazi was overjoyed, "Your Majesty Xie." ”

This reward is not heavy, the silver money or something is still secondary, but the title of the boundless real person and the right to walk in the inner palace are real benefits, and I can't help but dislike this boundless son.

Emperor Zhizheng tasted a few more pieces of peach flesh, and then said: "Of these three immortal peaches, I only keep one, and which one of them will make achievements on the road to immortality, and the immortal peach will be the reward." Dear fellow Daoists, please express your opinions and do not keep them. ”

After a while, an old man in his fifties and sixties came out of the crowd and shouted, "Your Majesty, you have something that you want to sacrifice to Your Majesty." ”

Emperor Zhizheng glanced at the old man and asked: "Daoist friends are not monks or Taoists, this costume is very strange, I don't know who is the surname, where it comes from, which sect it is mainly attacking, and what sect it belongs to?"

The old man bowed down and replied: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister's surname is Zhao Mingqu, he is a scattered person, does not belong to any sect, walks the rivers and lakes, although he has learned a lot of miscellaneous studies, when it comes to his own Taoism, it is actually not worth mentioning. But there is one thing that I want to offer to His Majesty. ”

Emperor Zhizheng asked: "What is it, take it and take a look." ”

The old man Zhao channel: "It is a rare thing that the ministers walked the rivers and lakes in the year before last and got by chance, called the Insight Treasure Mirror, which can shine through people's hearts, lungs, spleen, stomach and kidneys." If it falls into the hands of a good doctor, the medical skills will be doubled in an instant. ”

"Oh! "Emperor Zhizheng heard that it can shine through people's hearts, lungs, spleen, stomach and kidneys, and he is very curious.

"Yes. The old man Zhao Qu agreed, took out a large octagonal mirror from his arms, and presented it respectfully.

A small eunuch took it and presented it to Emperor Zhizheng.

Emperor Zhizheng took it in his hand, and took a look at the little eunuch, and the heart, lungs, spleen, stomach and kidneys of the little eunuch really appeared in the mirror, which was clearly visible.

Emperor Zhizheng took a picture of the rest of the palace maids, eunuchs and guards, and said the same, and said with a smile: "It's really a treasure." ”

Zhao channel: "This mirror, the minister will dedicate it to His Majesty, may His Majesty's discerning eyes be able to perceive everyone." ”

"That's a good implication. Emperor Zhizheng smiled, asked people to put away the mirror, and then remembered something, and asked: "Do Daoists have a method of immortality?"

Zhao Qu was stunned when he heard this, and after a while, he said: "The minister's learning is shallow, and there is no way to live forever. ”

Emperor Zhizheng looked disappointed, thought for a while, and then said: "Zhao Qu has a meritorious contribution to the treasure and will be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver." ”

There was no reward other than a thousand taels of silver.

"Your Majesty. Zhao Qu looked unwilling, but he didn't dare to say anything, bowed down and thanked him, and retreated.

When Xu Mo saw it, he couldn't help but think: It turns out that this emperor doesn't care about anything other than Changsheng, and it seems that if he wants to impress him, it must be something related to Changsheng.

Then he swept around, thinking: I don't know which one will be next.

But I heard Emperor Zhizheng say again: "You don't have to be restrained, but there is a way to live forever, please say it, and I will definitely reward you heavily." ”

Next, a few more people stood up, offering treasures and congratulating them, but no one had the method of immortality.

Emperor Zhizheng said: "Fellow Daoists, the road to immortality is long, throughout the ages, no one has ever been able to achieve immortality, today's Wanfa Conference, just to discuss the way of immortality, so it doesn't matter if you are wrong, what do you think, you may wish to come together one by one, you may be able to find a way of immortality." ”

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but whisper, but after a while, no one was willing to step forward.

Emperor Zhizheng smiled: "What are you talking about, why don't you say it out loud, and let me listen to it." ”

The scene immediately fell silent, and Emperor Zhizheng looked at everyone with a smile and did not speak. Xu Mo saw that no one spoke, let alone made a sound.

After a while, I suddenly heard a person shouting loudly: "Your Majesty, the minister has the method of immortality." (To be continued......)
