Although Princess "E Pei" had doubts about these two fairy-like little maids, she kept Xuanwu's words in mind, bathed and fasted, did not eat meat and fish, and her skills shocked Qiyun Mountain. She slid down the bathtub, thinking about the old man coming slowly, and worried that her name would not be established. I swear to follow Xuanwu's instructions and urge my name to finally be revealed. The fragrant soup drips with jade, and the chrysanthemum petals are applied to make the face beautiful. The incense is lingering in the air, and the clouds and mist on the fairy mountain are weeping with jade dew. The skin is softened and cleansed, the jade wrists are shining, the breath is like orchid, the beauty is beautiful, the lotus steps are graceful, and the silk gown is fluttering.
From today on, the space is vast, the road is far, and the good will is long. I drink the dew of spring orchids in the morning, and the fallen autumn chrysanthemums at the evening banquet. The bells and drums in the morning and evening, the smoke and the clouds gather together. The majestic righteousness suppresses evil spirits, and the high righteousness of the pines and cypresses is displayed. , sitting with the elegance of green bamboo. The waist is made of orchids, the hair is made of willow silk, the clothes are made of fragrant flowers, the smoke is made of herbs, the food is made of mountain fruits, and the drink is made of jade dew. Spring brings the breeze, summer brings the fragrance of lotus flowers, autumn contains chrysanthemum petals, and winter brings the fragrance of plum blossoms. Respecting the master and practicing the Dharma are not accepted by the secular world. This immortal is so good that all the people are unaware of it. I wish to cultivate inner beauty in the mortal world according to the principles of Xuanwu. The purpose of learning skills is to save the people, but the Qin Dynasty was decadent and decadent; I also had a good heart, and even though I died nine times, I still have no regrets.
E Pei came out of the bath with a completely new look. She cut autumn orchids to make clothes and sewed hibiscus to make clothes. The fresh fruits are richly decorated, and the leaves are fragrant. I hope that everyone can enjoy their livelihood, and E Pei is the only one who likes this way.
Meditate and resolve, fast and follow the Tao from now on, without greed, worship the Xuanwu Holy Elephant wholeheartedly, the incense and blessings will benefit Qi Yun.
After Princess "E Pei" finished bathing, two little maids suddenly came forward and waved the Wonderful Immortal Cloud Palm towards her. Princess "E Pei" shouted: "No, they really have harmful intentions towards me." She quickly broke through. The two maids took charge of the formation and went out lightly. I just finished taking a shower, feeling refreshed and as light as a swallow. Two maids gave chase. In an open space, Princess "E Pei" waved her sand palm. All of a sudden, the leaves on the trees on the ground were stirred up and flew all over the sky. The two maids were blinded and couldn't see the direction clearly. They no longer had the martial arts to fight back.
"You two, are you honoring the master's orders and trying to frame me? I have already taken a bath and fasted. I don't talk about killing, I just ask my heart! I will not explain what happened today to the master, so you can go ahead. I look forward to reflecting on it. , follow the good and follow the flow!”
The two little maids Nuonuo shouted repeatedly and disappeared instantly.
The two soldiers had been standing outside for a long time. Seeing this fight, they did not know the details and did not intervene. They were just surprised. When Princess "E Pei" took back her skills and entered the palace, she saw that Princess "E Pei" had a completely new look and was radiant. After a while, Xuanwu's voice in the air signaled the two of them:
"Princess 'E Pei' has a kind heart, is commendable for her tenderness, is kind and friendly, and is the hope of the people. This girl can be taught! You two are novices, from now on, you two will only be at the service of E Pei, protect her, and inherit Don’t slack off in offering incense to this temple!”
The two soldiers hurried forward and knelt down: "Emperor, have mercy on me! Female Bodhisattva, have mercy on me! Female Bodhisattva, have mercy on me!"
Princess "Epei" helped them both up and said with a smile: "I am not here to take your lives, but to save the lives of the people in the mountains."
The two soldiers nodded "yes", followed him around, obeyed his control, were obedient, humble and submissive.
Xuanwu nodded, his appearance was majestic, he held his sword and held his head high. Princess 'E Pei' stepped forward and kowtowed slightly:
"Master, from now on, 'E Pei' will be stationed at the Qiyun Palace at the top of Qiyun Mountain, respectfully renewing the incense, and don't dare to slack off!"
I saw Xuanwu lightly dancing with his sword, stabbing straight towards Princess 'E Pei'. Princess 'E Pei' had sharp eyes and light skills, soared forward and waved the tip of the sword to block her.
Xuanwu laughed: "Disciple, you are good at Qinggong. I will teach you a move: 'Fly up and grab the clouds, and look down at the sea.'"
Immediately, he taught skills with Princess 'E Pei' and his apprentice, which was so enthusiastic that the two little Taoist priests were dazzled. Princess 'E Pei' is able to catch, resist, block and collect with great flexibility, and is even more advanced in various martial arts.
From then on, Emperor Xuanwu's side was filled with auspicious clouds. After the Xuanwu apprenticeship was completed, the fairy wind drifted and passed away.
From then on, the princess "Epei" practiced the art of war in Qiyun Mountain and guarded Qiyun.
That day, two soldiers were cleaning the courtyard when they suddenly heard a noise outside. It turned out to be the Taoist temple in the west making a lot of noise. Enter the palace to report:
"Princess, the Taoist temple on the west side is very noisy. I wonder why?"
"Let's go! Let's go take a look."
They stepped past Wangxian Pavilion, followed the mountain road, and headed west down the mountain to the Taoist Temple in the west. Along the way, sometimes the sun was clear and the mountain shadows were clear, and sometimes there was light rain and the mountains were empty. "Epei" the princess thought, it is indeed the spiritual mountain! Approaching the Taoist temple in the west, the smoke from the roof is curling up, which is the most aura of human fireworks.
After entering the palace, Princess "Epei" saw many wax figures displayed on the altar in the north, majestic and orderly.
The first soldier said to Princess "Epei": "This is the wax figure that my master, Taoist Master Xiyun, asked us to make by ourselves."
Princess "E Pei" watched it slowly, moved to a wax figure, pointed at it and asked, "Is this the wax figure of Princess E Pei in the palace?"
The second soldier took a closer look at the fresh and refined chivalrous woman in front of him, then looked at the wax figure, and suddenly realized, as if waking up from a dream, he pointed to the first soldier and said:
"Chivalrous girl! It turns out that you are the princess "E Pei" in the palace. When he first met you, he muttered that you were very similar to Princess E Pei. I was still scolding him for "crazy thoughts". Forgive me for my blindness."
"He who doesn't know is not guilty!" Princess "Epei" responded casually. She wondered, it turned out that this land of clouds and mist in the fairy mountain actually hid these mechanisms, and she didn't know what other mist there was.
Go further inside and enter the main hall of the Taoist temple.
"This is the main hall of the Taoist temple on the west side. Taoist priest Xiyun practices Taoism here."
Sure enough, to the north of the main hall, there is a chimney, a torch, and a curtain hanging. Roll up the curtain and you will find the training place. The room is a little dark, but there are alchemy incense burners, Tai Chi Bagua, and apricot-yellow wind flags.
"Taoist Master Xiyun? Is he familiar with the art of disguise?" Princess "E Pei" also asked casually.
"We don't know this."
Suddenly, the sounds of disciples practicing came from the alley. There was a woman's voice that sounded familiar to Princess E Pei. It sounded a bit like a wet nurse's voice?
"Could it be that the wet nurse was not captured by the Qin guards, but was captured by the Taoist priests and brought to Qiyun Mountain?" Princess E Pei suddenly became suspicious, and the more she heard the voice, the more similar it became. She stepped forward and looked carefully.
"Ah!" Princess "Epei" was horrified: what she saw was not a wet nurse, but an older woman who looked like a princess.
"You all go to the main hall, our princess is very exquisite! She should have a separate house, a separate bedroom, and outdoor flowers and plants, layer upon layer. Her gardening and flower arrangement are excellent."
Hearing this, Princess E Pei knew that this old woman must be the wet nurse, because she knew all the interests and hobbies of Princess E Pei of Qin State.
Princess "E Pei" retreated to a corner. The two young Taoist priests blended into the flow of people heading towards the main hall.
Princess "Epei" stood in the corner, observing the dynamics of the hall. The wet nurse was cleaning the various wax figures in the hall and said to herself: "Princess, why are you missing? What's the use of keeping an old woman like me? In this mountain, I can only use the tricks. Otherwise, I can't protect myself. How can I wait for you? Come back, princess!" As she spoke, the nanny shed tears.
Princess "Epei" was confused in her heart. Should she recognize her nanny and seek another solution, or should she not recognize her?
The Taoist priests were lined up neatly outside Dadian, chanting scriptures in their mouths.
While they were concentrating on studying the scriptures, Princess Epei stood in the corner and shouted softly:
"Aniang, Aniang!"
The old woman in the middle heard the sound, looked back, gasped in shock, her eyes blurred with tears, and signaled her to be silent.
"Princess, have you come to this mountain too?" the wet nurse held Princess "E Pei"'s hand and asked in a low voice.
Princess "Epei" refused to listen. When she heard the nanny call her "princess", her eyes filled with tears:
"Aniang, I was rescued by the Chu people. I was worried about my safety, so I escaped privately and came to the mountains. I didn't expect my mother to be here? Why are you dressed as a "princess"? Do you also want to disguise yourself as E? What does Princess Pei look like?” "
After the nanny and Princess "E Pei" discussed it carefully, she led Xiaodao and the soldiers to continue practicing martial arts.
Princess "Epei" and two soldiers took advantage of the chaos and returned to the Xuanwu Holy Elephant Hall. (To be continued)
