Purple Wei, whose five elements belong to earth, is the noble star in the mid-heaven, the North and South Dipper, transforms into the emperor's seat, and is the lord of officialdom and wealth. For the Sidu Meridian, take the hexagram as the stem. The Lord is noble. It is called the Emperor Star, and its nature is like that of an emperor.
Empress Wu Zetian was the most dominant queen in the world. She reached the top of the world as a woman. These achievements were absolutely unprecedented and shocked the world. In order to highlight her status, the Queen ordered people to build a palace for herself in Luoyang, the divine capital. The palace was named after the emperor star "Ziwei"!
"The emperor of peace sits in the middle, and the officials who are prudent and prudent are divided into four seas."
At this time, the person living in this "Ziwei Palace" with the same name as the Heavenly Palace was none other than An Lushan, who proclaimed himself the Emperor of Dayan. Just a few days before the Battle of Lingbao outside Tongguan City, An Lushan sent people to call all the prophets in the former Luoyang Taishi Bureau. He ordered these people to use celestial phenomena to deduce the good or bad luck of the Battle of Tongguan. After the prediction situation trend.
These people were frightened by An Lushan's lustful power and could only obey. The leader among them was named Chang Chiman, and everyone looked up to him. When An Lushan saw this man for the first time, he thought he was just another juggler. After repeated confirmations, he reluctantly believed it. An Lushan really couldn't understand that such a despicable person was actually the leader of the Luoyang Taishi Bureau. Why are you, because he is only about two feet tall in life, round, bloated, ridiculous, and a dwarf. With such an appearance, it is no wonder that An Lushan thinks that he is like a clown in the troupe.
It's just that although this person was born with a weird figure and appearance, he has great background and abilities. Even though he is ugly, his master is the famous Ye Jinneng! The master of the three great figures of the Tang Dynasty royal family, "Double Ye Yiluo", was Ye Jingneng, one of the Double Leaves. As the most powerful secretly protector of the country in the Tang Dynasty, his skills as his disciple were naturally not much different.
Chang Chiman, as a disciple of the Immortal, has experienced many miraculous things. In the past ten years, there has been an interesting incident.
It is said that there was a king of Ruyang in the Tang Dynasty. He was the eldest grandson of Ruizhong Li Dan and the eldest son of Emperor Li Xian. He was one of the famous "Eight Immortals of Drinking" at that time.
This person is a direct relative of the royal family, with a national surname, a given name of Jing and a nickname of Si Gong, and a nickname of Hua Nu. This prince has a beautiful appearance, is elegant and good at music, has a bright appearance, fine skin, and excellent facial features. His eyebrows are more than delicate, and his eyebrows are sharp. Words like starry eyes and a jade-like face are not enough to describe him. When he was young, some people jokingly called him the "No. 1 Young Master in the Capital." As time went by, this former "No. 1 Young Master in the Capital" was praised and recognized by more and more people. , has been regarded as the "most handsome man" in the Tang Dynasty for more than ten years.
At that time, there were many famous and handsome people in the world, including Wang Wei, Helan Jinming, Gao Xianzhi, Guo Ziyi, Zhang Jiazhen, including Li Longji himself. In terms of appearance alone, it was not good. The only one who could compare with the King of Ruyang was the former prime minister. Xiao Song. He also got many nicknames because of this. Li Bai jokingly called him "Flower Slave" and "Brew King". This most beautiful man in the world was also good at bows and arrows and drumming. He was deeply loved by Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty. He once praised him for his bright appearance and slender skin. He was not a human being and would be relegated to the gods! After that, he was canonized as the king of Ruyang County and moved to the rank of imperial servant, official, and special officer.
He loves drinking very much. He starts drinking when he wakes up. He also sleeps with wine. He often drinks all day without getting drunk. Whenever guests come, he drinks from breakfast to night. One time, Ye Jingneng happened to come to his place, and the King of Ruyang forced him to drink with him. Ye Jingneng refused, and was afraid of making the prince unhappy, so he suggested:
"A certain person has a lifelong apprentice, and his drinking capacity can be as high as that of a king's drinker. Even though he is a dwarf, there are still some who are better than others. Tomorrow the envoy will visit the king, and the king will try to speak to him."
The next morning, someone indeed sent a famous post to the Prince of Ruyang's Mansion, claiming: "The Taoist priest is always full." The Prince of Ruyang sent someone to invite him in. I saw that this man was only two feet tall and had a rather ordinary appearance. He was wearing a Taoist robe. His appearance was really funny and unbearable. However, due to his teacher's face, he could only arrange to sit down. The two of them chatted at the banquet. At first, they just exchanged polite greetings. After drinking for three rounds, they slowly started to talk as they pleased. King Ruyang himself has extraordinary talents and learning. From the embryonic world to the beginning of the Dao, the heaven and the earth were opened, and he talked about countless reincarnations of the universe, and then to the three emperors and five emperors, the rise and fall of the past dynasties, the time and personnel, the history of the classics, etc., he could hold them all in the palm of his hand. The short Taoist priest also answered fluently. Although he didn't say much, he was far-reaching, profound and unpredictable. He always hit the nail on the head, often giving people the feeling of turning away clouds and seeing the moon. But with the in-depth discussion of the avenue of life and other aspects, King Ruyang's knowledge was not enough. After all, one of them is in the secular world, and the other is already transcendent. Therefore, the conversation between the two gradually became tongue-tied and King Ruyang became a little unable to answer. As time went by, he became a little bored. The Taoist priest saw that the prince was not very good at these profound and obscure principles, so he changed the subject and started talking about simple, fun and interesting things about the mountains and fields, such as subduing demons and killing demons, and performing chivalrous acts of justice. King Ruyang was very interested in this. Because of his special status, he could not walk around the world at will, so he especially liked listening to these stories about gods and monsters, and asked with great interest:
"Master, one time I came to the capital and received your majesty's favor. We drank and admired the flowers. During the wine and food, your majesty talked about your master. He said that Ye Tianshi was a master of Taoism and spiritual power. It was the defeated Monk Hu who rescued the Dragon God and borrowed a river from heaven. When I first heard this, I was extremely surprised. I was fascinated by the methods of those heavenly beings, but I was not allowed to ask Your Majesty. I am lucky enough to meet the master today. I don’t know. Can you tell me a few things? I would be very grateful!"
Chang Chiman smiled inwardly, he turned out to be another admirer of his master. These things were not too secretive and there was nothing he couldn't say. Moreover, the other party was of royal blood, so there would be no trouble if he spoke out, and he was not arrogant at the moment. He just ordered Wang Ping of Ruyang to retreat and wait until no one else was present before he started speaking.
"Your Majesty wants to ask, how dare you not answer. Respecting the master's ability goes up to the gate of heaven and down to the geography. When he suddenly wants to ascend to heaven, he goes when he has to go and comes back when he has to. He has the ability to shake the world and master the art of thousands of changes. He can practice nine turns. The magical elixir can lead to immortality; take one pill and you will be incomparable. The talisman of Taiyi in the Yuan Dynasty can move the heaven and the earth; you have to call the five cao to talk to each other. Call the five mountains to drive at will, and the fortune must move, and the universe will stop if it wants to stop, so that the fortune will be It will bring good luck. Push the five mountains for a moment, drink the sun and sea water, and the time will flow in the opposite direction, clearing the secluded world and moving the subtle things, restricting the universe, and within the creation, no one can be with you. The ghosts and gods in the world are all recruited by the master, and the gods are everywhere and driven. Your Majesty once said that the pure energy of my leaves is unparalleled in the world!"
Good guy, the King of Ruyang was stunned for a while. According to this disciple's words, his master can not only ascend to heaven and earth, but also practice the elixir of life and draw a talisman. Even the sun in the sky and the sea below can go backwards with a command, and can even drive ghosts and gods away. As for the emperor's unique comment, he has heard it with his own ears. It seems that he will have to take good care of this dwarf today. So many clichés!
Although it is a bit exaggerated to say that Chang Chiman praised his master, Ye Jinneng himself was indeed an expert in Taoism and had a pure and clear mind. He has practiced Taoism for nearly a hundred years, and has developed many magical powers such as becoming invisible, drawing talismans and transforming into humans, etc. His killing of fox demons, killing dragons and offering sacrifices to the emperor are indeed true, so it is no wonder that he has earned the title of "unique in the world".
Chang Chiman enjoyed King Ruyang’s adoring expression. While thanking the prince for the toast, he continued to talk:
"Master is particularly good at the art of talismans. King Daluo once tested your master's skills and used his magical power to turn it into a river. The river was five miles wide and there was no bridge or boat to ferry people across. Master then wrote a talisman, Throwing it into the water, the river dried up, so the Master walked across the river. Another time, we went to the Qiantang River in search of fairy grass, and saw that the water was deep and vast, and its end was unpredictable. The people around him warned that there were evil mirages in the river, and the boats were not safe. Dare to cross it. The master then drew a talisman and threw it into the river. The river water became clear for three days, and the evil mirage floated on the beach. When the master saw it, he used the flying sword to cut it into three pieces in an instant."
Chang Chiman talked about his master's great achievements in high spirits, while King Ruyang drooled when he heard it. Oh my god, if you just draw a talisman and throw it into the water, you can dry up a river five miles wide. Another talisman allowed Qiantangjiang to clarify for three days, and the flying sword was unsheathed and easily killed the evil mirage. King Ruyang didn't know that the evil mirage in the Qiantang River had been matured for hundreds of years. It was as big as a snake, five feet long and short, with faint horns like a dragon, a red mane, and all its scales below the waist, and it was breathless. It can be transformed into a tower and a city, and it is as solid as real. You can't distinguish between true and false when you are in it. As long as it doesn't use magical power, and as long as there is rain, it will not dissipate. It is called a mirage, and it is also called a sea city. This evil mirage used its magical powers to hallucinate ships and caused many lives. The government sent many warships but they couldn't take it down. I never thought that it would be cut into three pieces by the flying sword of the Taoist priest. This is an immortal. What a means!
King Ruyang was fascinated by what he heard. He personally poured wine for Chang Chiman and asked him this and that. Chang Chiman drank the wine and responded to King Ruyang's answer. Then he continued to teach you how to use the water of the Tianhe River to defeat Monk Hu and save the Dragon God. story.
It is said that it was during the Kaiyuan period. Ye Jinneng gathered people at Xingtang Temple in Fenghua County, Mingzhou to preach Taoism. Since Ye Jinneng set up an altar to preach, it attracted many believers. Among them was an old man in white. Every time he preached, They all listened attentively and were very respectful. Every day he is the first to come and the last to leave, and he leaves very hesitantly, as if he has something he wants to say but doesn't dare to say it. Many days passed, and the old man stayed longer and longer, but he never spoke.
Ye Jinneng taught the Taoist scriptures for several days. The disciples all saw the old man who was different from ordinary people, and they successively described to their master how there was an old man who behaved strangely. With eyes as bright as Ye Jingneng's, he had already noticed the old man. He had never seen such a pious person. Feeling happy and doubtful at the same time, he snapped his fingers and prepared to make a divination for the old man. He just raised his palm, He heard a thunderbolt in the clear sky, ending his secret. He immediately knew that this old man was definitely not a human being, so Ye Jinneng did not reveal the inside story and pretended not to know, waiting to see how long the old man could endure it.
After Ye Jinneng finished preaching the Taoist scriptures that day, the audience dispersed one after another, leaving the old man alone, scratching his ears and pacing back and forth with frowning eyebrows. Ye Jingneng knew that the time was right, so he sent his disciples to invite the old man and asked him if he had anything to hide. When the old man heard this, he immediately cried bitterly and kowtowed, crying and said to Ye Jinneng:
"I'm the Immortal Master. My disciple's name is Lin Wei. I want to beg the Immortal Master for something, but I haven't had the courage to say it myself. Since the Immortal Master is asking questions today, how can I dare to hide it? This disciple is not a mortal, but a man who works in Xingtang. Watch the dragon guarding the treasure in the sea in the south. According to the clan rules, he must guard this sea area for thousands of years. If the treasure is not lost during the millennium, the disciple can get a slight promotion; if the treasure is lost, the disciple will be demoted into the sea of fire to accept the flames. Punishment by the sand. Since the day when I received my order, my disciples have not dared to slack off in the slightest, and have performed their duties diligently and diligently. It has been more than 900 years since I arrived today, and my merits will be complete in just a few years. But I never thought that thirty years would pass. I don’t know where a Hu monk came from before, and I don’t know if the Hu monk knew the location of the treasure house or stumbled upon it. He cast a spell in the sea area of his disciples to refine the sea water into essence. This Hu monk was pious and very talented. Great spell power, the spell he practices is powerful and very domineering, and his disciples are no match for him. Monk Hu has been practicing in this sea area for thirty years. Every time at noon, he comes to refine the water in the sea. As time goes by, the sea water It has been refined by him for more than eight feet. If it is refined further, the sea water will dry up, and the treasure cannot be hidden. It will be taken away by Monk Hu. At that time, the guard dragon, the disciple, will die. The disciple does not dare to hope for the scale. For promotion, I just hope that I won’t have to endure the punishment of a thousand years of fire. I am old and I really don’t dare to think about such torture. I hope that the immortal master will take pity on the disciple and save him from this disaster for the sake of the disciple’s diligence and caution for thousands of years. The disciple must not dare Forget the great kindness of the Immortal Master.”
After hearing these words, Ye Jingneng thought about it secretly, and then agreed to the matter, promising to rescue the old dragon on the Dragon Boat Festival. The old dragon cried and expressed his gratitude, and kowtowed many times before leaving. Ye Jingneng knew that this matter was not trivial, and was worried that he would forget it, so he wrote a few big words on the pillars in the palace:
"Save the dragon at noon!"
On the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, Ye Jingneng went to the county for a banquet and rested in his room after returning. When Ye Jinneng's disciples were cleaning, they suddenly saw the words on the pillars and murmured something: "Save the dragon at noon! It's almost noon now, and the master is still resting. Could it be that he has forgotten this?" So he planned to enter. Wu reminds Ye Jing that he can save the dragon.
Ye Jinneng had already heard the disciple's muttering in the room, so he asked: "What time is it now?" The disciple replied: "Master, it's almost noon." Ye Jinneng stood up and prepared to practice the method. !
Ye Jinneng first sent a disciple in Tsing Yi as an envoy, holding a black talisman and rushing to Xiaohai. One mile away from the small sea, the disciples in Tsing Yi saw thick black clouds covering the sea. The black clouds filled the sky, the dark wind howled, and the poisonous wind blew from all directions. There was a Brahman monk from Tianzhu who looked like He was extremely dark and ugly, and his curly hair tendrils were dirty. I saw him holding a sword in one hand and holding a sword in the other, standing on the black clouds, reciting incantations, and shouting loudly on the sea. The seawater was sucked into the black clouds along with the incantations, and condensed into ink-colored water droplets. Seng Hu swallowed it into his belly, and the sea water also lost a few feet due to these spells. Before he could take action, the disciple in green was sucked into the sea by the poisonous wind following Seng Hu's actions.
Ye Jingneng's hand movements here changed. Knowing the situation there, he immediately sent another disciple in yellow as an envoy, holding a yellow talisman and riding a horse forward to Xiaohai. More than a hundred steps away from the small sea, the disciples in yellow were also sucked into the sea with Monk Hu's shout. At this time, the sea water dropped by a few feet, and a white dragon could be seen jumping in the shallow water, looking like it was in pain and difficulty.
Although Ye Jinneng was in a Taoist temple, the situation on the sea was as if he had seen it with his own eyes. He smiled coldly in his heart. This black and ugly monk had some Taoism. He then raised the ink pen, pinched the magic formula with his hand, silently recited an order in his mouth, and raised the ink pen , photographed in the sky, there is a faint roar of huge waves. He drew the talisman and once again sent a disciple in red clothes to hold the red talisman to cast the spell. Monk Hu was still practicing the method, and he kept sucking in the sea water. When the Zhu Yi disciple reached the shore, the sea water was only one or two feet deep. The white dragon was gasping for air, and its mouth was full of sand and sand. He was obviously very weak. The Brahmin monk Hu was shocked when he saw the red talisman in the hands of the disciples in red clothes. He hurriedly waved the sword in his hand and muttered words. Countless black sand flew towards the disciples in red clothes, and there were even traces of lightning wrapped in them. The red-clothed disciple followed his master's instructions and sacrificed a turtle shell magic weapon. Immediately, a shield-shaped barrier appeared around his body, and he moved forward hard against the black sand and lightning. The Brahmin Hu monk even shouted loudly and activated the curse with all his strength. Fa, the disciple in red shook a few times and stumbled a few times, but did not fall down.
While the Brahmin Hu monk was still struggling, the disciple in Zhu Yi had already arrived at the beach. He saw that the Guannan small sea had almost dried up, leaving only one or two feet of sea water, and a white dragon lying on the beach. The disciple in Zhuyi didn't hesitate anymore and immediately threw the red talisman into the sea. As soon as the red talisman touched the sand on the seabed, endless river water immediately spewed out. With the help of the river water, the sea water immediately rose sharply, and after a while, it returned to its original state.
The Brahmin Hu monk looked at the rolling sea water under him and knew that the situation was over. He resisted the collapse of the great spell in his body, touched his sword and sighed, he has been practicing for nearly a thousand years, and his Taoist skills have surpassed all of Tianzhu, especially here. Pianhaiyu has been working hard for thirty years. I don't want to exhaust my abilities today, but I still can't defeat a Taoist priest. It's just that this Taoist priest is too powerful, but he has so many things. It's really hateful. He can use a talisman to attract the water of the sky, and borrow a big river out of thin air to break his formation. Now not only can't he get the treasure, but his origin has been lost. The monk Hu did not dare to stay any longer, so he set up a black cloud and fled in a hurry.
The black clouds over the sea dispersed and became calm again. The two disciples who had been sucked into the sea were also floating on the water. The disciple in red and his two fellow disciples supported each other and returned to the Taoist temple, recounting their experiences. After telling the master, Ye Jingneng smiled calmly and said nothing. Before the three of them finished their report, the old man with a beard arrived. With tears in his eyes and full of emotion, he knelt down and cried, saluting Master Ye Tianshi and said:
"Thank you Immortal Master for saving your life. If it weren't for the Immortal Master's magic power, I would have died under Monk Hu's spell. Even if you are lucky enough to escape death, if the treasure is lost, you will definitely be punished for a thousand years. Scale position I am afraid that I will not be able to repay my kindness, so I am willing to rely on the immortal master for the rest of my life. As a disciple of the immortal master, from now on, I will pay my respects regularly in the morning and evening. If the immortal master has orders, I will definitely obey them. Even if the journey is far away, and even if there are rivers and mountains between us, as long as the immortal master calls me with one thought, The disciples will arrive immediately!"
Ye Jinneng didn't say whether he would accept the dragon or not. He just ordered him to go back first and restore his own strength before talking about it later. From then on, Ye Jinneng still held lectures, and Jiaolong came to listen every day and rushed around diligently. Because the Xingtang Temple where Ye Jingneng lives is located on a plateau, wells cannot be drilled. The Taoist priests have to carry water more than ten miles away every day. It is difficult to get there and everyone in the temple has a headache. Ye Jingneng saw this and wanted to test the dragon, so he called his disciples to call the dragon and said:
"Since you are a divine dragon and have lived in Pindao Temple for a long time, you can see that the disciples in the temple have to walk a long way to get water every day. If there is spring water in the Taoist temple, they can save the time. Don’t worry, since you want to repay someone’s kindness, just build a spring in this temple!”
When Bailong heard this, he was a little embarrassed and said:
"Master, forgive me. The direction of the spring water in the world is determined by the heavens and cannot be changed by humans. Although the disciple has the ability to move clouds and make rain, he does not dare to overstep it. However, the master has a life-saving grace for the disciple, and he has been able to escape for thousands of years. How can the disciple refuse the suffering of the sea of fire? However, this matter is not trivial. Master, it is best for everyone to leave this place temporarily. If the disciple is lucky enough to defeat this mountain god, it will be done when the sky turns light and dark three times. The sky is as usual, Master, please come back!"
Who is Ye Jinneng? He can summon a whole river of people with just a talisman. How could he not know the rules of heaven and earth? Since he wanted to test, he pretended not to know, just to see how the dragon would behave. At that moment, everyone was ordered to leave the Taoist temple temporarily and watch from a distance.
After a while, on the top of the mountain where the Taoist temple was located, there was lightning and thunder, strong winds, and the sky was uncertain. Everyone only heard bursts of dragon roars, but could not see any trace. They all looked at Ye. Net energy. Ye Jinneng looked at the top of the mountain with a calm face, but a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Half a day passed, and the sky returned to normal. Ye Jingneng led the Taoist priests back to the Taoist temple. They saw a clear spring near the Taoist temple. The walls of the well were built with stones. After a circle around the Taoist temple, it flowed to the well. Looking towards the sea, the spring water is gurgling, clear and sweet. The Taoist temple no longer has to worry about drinking water.
"Later, in order to express gratitude to the master for his kindness, everyone nominated this clear spring canal as the "Immortal Master Canal". The white dragon was also received by the master and is now among our equals! The name of the master's wonderful art It spreads all over the world, but there are only a few of them!"
Chang Chiman finally finished telling the story of how Ye Jingneng borrowed the river from the sky and how he defeated Monk Hu to save the Dragon God. At this moment, his face was glowing with red light and he was in high spirits. Anyone with such an amazing and talented master would probably be unable to bear it. Raise your tail!
