Guanjiangkou, also known as Guanzhou, is where Erlang Shen’s dojo was established.
In fact, this is also the ancestral home of Erlang Shen.
Although the deeds of Erlang Shen are widely circulated, his life experience is actually not well known.
In fact, Erlang Shen was always the Jade Emperor's most beloved sister before he went to hell.
I don't know if it's a coincidence or not, but I have a soft spot for the number three in everything in the sky, such as the thirty-three heavens, the thirty-three heavenly palaces, and the seventy-two treasure palaces.
But when it comes to the people represented by the number three, the stories tend to be the most numerous.
For example, among the three disciples of Tang Seng, the white dragon Ma Aolie is the third son of Ao Run, the Dragon King of the West Sea, and Ao Bing, who was beaten to death by Nezha, is the third son of Ao Guang, the Dragon King of the East China Sea. Nezha happens to be Chen The third son of Tangguan Li Jing, the agarwood who split Huashan Mountain, his mother is the Third Holy Mother.
This extension includes the Twelve Immortals of Yuxu, Jiuyao Xingjun, Doubu's 330,000 evil stars, evil spirits, etc. This inexplicable connection with the three will always make people think about it.
There are also nine people in the team. Isn't it a coincidence?
Speaking of Erlangshen's mother, she happens to be the third princess of Heaven and the third sister of the Jade Emperor. She has lived in the Bullfighting Palace of Heaven for a long time.
The Bullfighting Palace is the residence of the Jade Emperor in legend, but even though the team has been in heaven for so long, it is still a rather mysterious place for them.
Not just them, most of the gods in heaven don't know what the Bullfighting Palace looks like.
As for the Lingxiao Palace, it is just the place where the Jade Emperor works, but he does not live there. If you insist on comparison, the Lingxiao Palace is more like the Hall of Supreme Harmony used by mortal emperors to summon their ministers, while the Bullfighting Palace , then there is no doubt that it is the emperor's harem.
I don’t know what year or month it was, but one day the third princess suddenly realized that she was bored in heaven, so she took a break and went to the lower world.
That story is the secret of the entire heaven, and it is also a huge scandal. Therefore, due to the Jade Emperor's deliberate concealment, few people really know how the three princesses escaped to the mortal world.
Of course, if the team has the heart to gossip, they can probably gain something by asking the four heavenly kings. After all, they guard the four heavenly gates all year round, and the heavenly gates are the only entrances and exits from heaven to the mortal world, and the four heavenly kings are the most gossipy. If they were to say that they knew nothing about the gods, everyone in the team would not believe it at all.
In any case, when the three princesses of the Heavenly Court went down to the lower realm, no one in the Heavenly Court noticed, not even the Jade Emperor knew anything about it.
Someone must have deliberately concealed it, or in other words, they simply did not dare to make any rumors about the third princess's trip to the lower realm.

By the time Heaven or the Jade Emperor knew about this, Yang Jian was already good at making soy sauce.
This time in the lower realm, in addition to exploring the possibility of the union of immortals and mortals to produce offspring, it also set an extremely bad example for future generations of fairies in the lower realm.
For example, the Three Holy Mothers who later fell in love with Liu Yanchang, and the Seven Fairies who fell in love with Dong Yong, should have been influenced by her.
I promise you that Zeus in Greece will be merciful in every way. Our land in China is much kinder. All fairies come down to earth to give you free gifts. Isn’t this higher than them?
The place where the third princess Sifan went to the lower realm was Guanjiangkou. It was here that the third princess met Erlang Shen's father, Yang Tianyou.
Yang Tianyou was originally an ordinary scholar in Guanzhou City. There are legends about his identity as the reincarnation of Zuo Jintong. The real situation is unknown. If Erlang Shen's father was really given a secret immortal identity, then Princess Yunhua Sifan at that time It's worth pondering whether the lower realm came straight towards him with a clear purpose or bumped into him by accident.
The following story is nothing new, and is familiar even to ordinary people.
When the Jade Emperor found out about Princess Yunhua, he naturally thought that this was a huge scandal that had never happened in heaven. There was no difference between immortals and mortals, and such an act was a serious violation of heavenly rules.
Originally, according to the Jade Emperor's temper, breaking the glass lamp was a capital offense. Naturally, such a level of heavenly law could not be forgiven. However, Princess Yunhua was the Jade Emperor's most beloved third sister, so this punishment was held high. , but fell gently. In the end, the Jade Emperor just had a heart attack and pressed this sister under the peach mountain.
At this time, Yang Jian had become sensible. In order to save his mother, he began to study with teachers everywhere, hoping to practice immortal magic and save his mother.
The combination of immortals and mortals can often give birth to extremely powerful gods, and this is no exception in Greece and China.
When Yang Jian became a disciple of Master Yuding, Master Yuding did not expect that this guy would become one of the most powerful true immortals in history.
As one of the Twelve Immortals of Yuxu, Yuding was one of the last true immortals to obtain the Immortal Trapping Sword in the Immortal Killing Formation. Whether he accepted Erlang Shen as his disciple was under the instruction of Yuanshi Tianzun or not, no one knew. In short, Erlang Shen encouraged him to practice so much. By the age of 17, he is already capable of defeating Master Yuding.
This is inseparable from his talent and hard work. However, what is puzzling is that the strength of Master Yuding is not among the top twelve immortals of Yuxu. Yang Jian is so powerful, but he does not know the reason why.
Ancestor Bodhi taught Sun Wukong seventy-two transformations, and Yang Jian learned seventy-three transformations, which happened to be one more transformation than Sun Wukong.
At the age of seventeen, he split open Peach Mountain with a mountain ax and saved his mother.
But in fact, the Jade Emperor was able to let Yang Tianyou and Princess Yunhua go, but it was because of Erlangshen's strength.
Princess Yunhua was adopted into a fairy body and lived a warm and ordinary life in Guanzhou. She and her husband both passed away and continued to be reincarnated. Erlang Shen became the first person in the world to become a saint and go to heaven.
After he became an immortal, Guanzhou, located on the east bank of the Minjiang River, naturally became the dojo where Erlang Shen practiced.
Because Erlang Shen has an unforgettable memory of Heaven, the Jade Emperor, and even the entire Taoist sect, Erlang Shen has always maintained a deliberate alienation from Heaven. His only duty on weekdays is to spread clouds and rain around the mouth of the Guanjiang River and take charge of water affairs.
No matter how big the Minjiang River is, it is not bigger than the Yangtze River. From this perspective, Erlangshen's responsibilities are completely different from his strength.
From this point of view, Yang Jian should be under the jurisdiction of the Tianting Water Department. However, since Guanjiang Estuary came to him, no god has ever dared to point fingers here. Guanjiang Estuary or Guanzhou has become Yang Jian's private land.
This happened to be what he wanted, and he spent every day working here with the Six Friends of Meishan and the Caotou Gods.
Of course, as the top thug in heaven and the Jade Emperor's nephew, the Jade Emperor did not ignore him. Whenever there was a big war, he would always take charge of the vanguard general. For example, when he captured Sun Wukong, he would They are the vanguard at the front.
Yang Jian's seemingly docile, but actually distant attitude did not arouse doubts from others. Those who were qualified to question knew the real reason, and those who were not qualified to question would naturally not speak.
But in fact, no one knows that Yang Jian has been holding a breath in his heart for these years. This breath is not only against his mother, Princess Yunhua, who was suppressed under the Peach Mountain for 15 years, but also against the heaven's strict hierarchy and arbitrary punishment laws. .
It’s just that he never really showed it.
A huge system, a single move can affect the whole body, not to mention that what Yang Jian is thinking about has touched the foundation of Heavenly Court and even Taoism's control and rule of China.
He has been tolerant all these years, but has no good feelings towards the Jade Emperor. This is where he comes from.
It wasn't until Emperor Ziwei found him that the door to a new world was opened for him.
No matter what reasons Emperor Ziwei used to persuade Yang Jian at that time, in short, the plan and conditions designed by the other party seemed to Yang Jian to be indeed feasible. It was implemented and had no profound impact on the three realms, so Yang Jian agreed to cooperate with the other party in the uprising.
The work he did was not much, but it was extremely important.
The most important point is to allow the three realms to complete a smooth transition during the uprising.
This is due to his strength, and only he can legitimately tell those people that the Three Realms will not be chaotic.
Naturally, the result was that he was deceived by Emperor Ziwei, and the Three Realms were indeed not in chaos as he said, but now it seems that it is only a matter of time before chaos begins.
There is no doubt that Emperor Ziwei is walking a tightrope now. If he is not careful, he will lose everything. And in the eyes of the opponent, Yang Jian is one of the most important variables.
But what Emperor Ziwei didn't know was that, except for the big event that was about to destroy the Three Realms, Erlang Shen didn't care at all about what Heaven would become.
After he became an immortal, the Heavenly Court was ruled by the Jade Emperor for so long. Although he couldn't stand it, he could endure it until there was a better way. If Emperor Ziwei's actions became even more excessive, the worst he could do would be to stop it. Just go to heaven, what can you, Emperor Ziwei, do to me?
But he was very concerned about Emperor Ziwei's deception during the whole process, so he concealed the matter from the other party.
From a fundamental point of view, although he is a god of Chanjiao, the roaring dog around him is not an existence that can be recognized by Chanjiao's teachings. However, many people actually ignore this matter intentionally or unintentionally.
After all, those who become saints in the flesh are different from the gods in these three realms.
Like Li Jing's family, he felt that the path taken by Jie Jiao seemed to be more in line with what he had in mind. After all, those who became saints in the physical body were not the standard gods defined by the Chan Jiao.
Taking a step back, even if Yang Jian can really swallow this breath, it doesn't matter whether Emperor Ziwei deceived him in this matter, and he doesn't want to get this situation back. However, as the actual ruler of Heaven, Emperor Ziwei can destroy Nantianmen. , no matter how he betrayed the Heavenly Court, he would never sit idly by and let him, a grass-headed king, continue to live happily in Guanjiangkou.
Conflict between the two sides is difficult to avoid.
