It is still the Ruyang Palace in Chang'an City.
It is said that the wine vat is always full and the story told to King Xiaoyao is called [Thousand Days of Wine], which comes from Volume 19 of "Sou Shen Ji", which is not a very serious book.
I say it is not serious because this book is too bizarre and bizarre to ordinary people. It is purely made up by the author. But why do you say this is a serious book? It turns out that the author of this book is Qian Bao, a famous writer and historian in the Jin Dynasty. He was a serious scholar of the time who was responsible for writing the national history "Jin Ji", and he was a rigorous scholar who started his career, so many people doubted that it was a serious book. Book.
As an expert, Chang Chiman certainly knew that what was written in that book was not all lies. King Ruyang had also read that book. In the past, he only regarded it as a legend. Until today, after seeing Chang Chiman's magical changes, he naturally understood. Most of the things in that book are true, otherwise Chang Chiman wouldn't have told himself this story for no reason.
King Ruyang did become silent after listening to the story about Qianrijiu. He was a smart man, and Chang Chiman borrowed some tips from the story, and King Ruyang also understood it. He stopped pacing, leaning on the edge of the urn with one hand, stroking his beautiful sideburns with the other, and fell into deep thought.
Could it be that I really can’t drink the wine in this vat?
After figuring this out, King Ruyang had no choice but to persuade himself. What a pity for that thousand-year-old wine! Just listen to him slowly reciting a poem:
"May I be drunk for a thousand days and be relieved of a hundred years of worry!"
Yes, this poem by Liu Xiyi is exactly what King Ruyang is feeling at this moment. If there is such a wine that can last for a thousand days, it would be great to relieve his centuries-old depression.
Chang Chiman could also hear King Ruyang's resignation from his emotion. Originally he was just greedy for good wine, but in the end it affected the depression in his heart. Hey, he is also a poor man who cannot be free! At that moment, his heart was moved, and he felt compassion as he recalled King Ruyang's favor and courtesy towards him.
Just listen to the voice of Chang Chiman coming from the urn:
"Actually, Your Majesty, you don't have to be so nervous. Although the wine in Pindao's vat is overbearing, there is still a way to drink it!"
Upon hearing this, King Ruyang was stunned for a moment, jumped up immediately, and asked excitedly:
"What does Master Chang Xian mean by this? Is there really a method?"
Chang Chiman didn't care about it anymore. Since he had already decided to give him wine, he simply went ahead. I saw him telling King Ruyang to stand farther away, and then ordered someone to bring a jade bottle. He wanted to cast a spell to get the wine.
King Ruyang followed his words and stayed away from the wine vat, and then personally took out a high-quality mutton-fat jade bottle from his private treasure. The jade bottle was white, gentle, exquisite and graceful. King Ruyang held up the palm-sized jade bottle and asked Chang Chiman whether it was possible? Chang Chiman looked at the jade bottle with his spiritual consciousness, and saw that the jade bottle was shining brightly. It was indeed a high-quality jade that contained the energy of heaven and earth. He secretly sighed in his heart that it was good to be born in an emperor's family. There are indeed many good treasures. While answering:
"This jade bottle is very good. Your Majesty, please put it on the ground, and I will cast a spell to get the wine!"
King Ruyang was so happy that he stared at the wine vat with red eyes. Chang holds full control over his body, forming a pair of invisible big hands, taking the jade bottle into the air, and attaches a water-shaped talisman to the body of the bottle to ensure that the jade bottle is strong enough to contain the domineering power of the wine of the body. . After doing this, he cast a spell to shake the wine vat, and the wine in the vat began to whirlpool, slowly rolling out hair-like wine lines. The wine lines rose higher and higher, and finally penetrated into the mouth of the jade bottle. In, take one breath and two breaths. When the seventh breath is finished, the wine line is disconnected, the whirlpool in the urn slowly calms down, and the jade bottle is filled with seven drops of divine wine. Chang Chiman wrote another talisman in the air and sealed the mouth of the bottle to ensure that the wine in the bottle would not leak out, let alone be broken open by force.
After Chang Chiman finished these things, he sent the jade bottle into the hands of King Ruyang in the air. Before King Ruyang could ask, a ball of water mist arose out of thin air, surrounding the wine jar tightly, waiting for the water mist After they dispersed, the wine vat was gone, and the person standing in front of them had changed back into the short and fat Taoist.
King Ruyang was very excited when he saw Chang Chiman transformed into a human form again. One hand was holding the jade bottle tightly, and the other hand was already hurriedly pulling Chang Chiman. Chang Chiman did not hide this time. He looked at the tall and burly King Ruyang with excitement in front of him with a smile. Looking at his helpless look, he couldn't help but want to laugh. With such an innocent heart, it was not in vain for him to sacrifice his own essence and blood. Gift each other. Chang Chiman couldn't bear the embarrassment of King Ruyang anymore and said:
"To be honest, this wine is not extraordinary. It is the origin of heaven and earth that has been refined by poor Taoists for thousands of years. It is a mortal body. Not to mention a cup, even a drop cannot be tolerated. If you drink it, you will explode and die. Today I am also destined to the prince, so I will take some of it as a gift. The prince should not blame me for being stingy before!"
Chang Chiman finally figured it out for himself. Only then did King Ruyang know the reason. It is important to know that things like the origin are innate. If they are given away, it will be extremely difficult to get them back. He couldn't help but feel even more regretful about himself. His arrogance forced Chang Chiman to abandon his roots. He was about to confess when Chang Chiman interrupted with a smile:
"Your Majesty, there is no need to be in such a difficult situation. The wine was given to me willingly by the poor man. I highly admire the prince's true nature as a man. All the things happening here today are due to fate. You and I were both born as the times require. There is no need to be like this daughter." .Singing to wine, what a life! I wonder if the prince would be willing to drink another three hundred cups with me!"
At this time, King Ruyang lowered his head to look at the short and fat Taoist, and felt that his magnanimity was as high as ten thousand ren. He lowered his head, and he raised his head. The two looked at each other for a long time. King Ruyang took three steps back, straightened his clothes, clasped his fists with both hands, bowed deeply to Chang Chiman, and made a standard disciple's salute. He said loudly:
"Master Changxian is here, please accept my disciple's bow!"
Chang Chiman did not dodge this time. With one hand behind his back and the other holding his beard, he smiled and accepted the bow from King Ruyang.
After the two people bowed, they sat down again. Chang Chiman watched King Ruyang holding the mutton-fat jade bottle in his hand and never put it down. Knowing that he must be very precious to the wine in the bottle, he immediately taught him how to open the jade bottle. He also warned him that although there were only seven drops of wine in the bottle, it was definitely the top treasure in the world. This wine must not be drunk directly. If you want to drink it, just put the jade bottle into ordinary wine, and the divine wine in the jade bottle will automatically turn the secular wine into fresh wine. But the most wonderful thing about the divine wine in this jade bottle is not that it can be drunk as wine, but that it takes part in the power of creation. King Ruyang only needs to carry the jade bottle close to his body, and the true energy of heaven and earth contained in the wine will protect his body, preventing evil spirits from invading and prolonging his life. Do not show this thing to others easily, otherwise it will cause disaster. Regardless of whether they are monsters, wild monks or mountain spirits, if they learn that he has this sacred wine, they will definitely come and steal it. Although King Ruyang is extremely noble in the secular world and is protected by countless people, the methods of those demons from outside are not something that ordinary people can resist, so it is better to be careful.
After hearing these words, King Ruyang couldn't help but feel a little uneasy, and he understood even more what Chang Chiman said about the interdependence of blessings and misfortunes.
Chang Chiman saw through King Ruyang's thoughts, smiled slightly and said:
"Actually, Your Majesty, you don't have to worry too much. Although this thing is magical, Pindao has already placed a talisman on the jade bottle to restrict it. This forbidden method was personally taught by my mentor Ye Jinneng. It is extremely high. Unless the magical power is stronger than Pindao, it will not be possible." He will never understand the secrets in the bottle, let alone destroy the jade bottle. As for those who have stronger magic power than the poor, they will definitely not look down on the power of the wine. If they really want to be blinded by their minds and rob them, they will offend the dragon vein of the secular royal court. Secondly, you must be careful of a certain mentor’s sword and talisman. So, Prince, you can rest assured!”
King Ruyang was relieved after Chang Chiman was released. At that moment, the two of them exchanged cups and cups, not getting along well.
Finally, Chang Chiman transformed his body into a trace of wine on his fingertips, and blended it into the wine they drank. King Ruyang picked up the wine that contained the divine wine and luck. The wine was clear and sweet, and he drank lightly. After one sip, I feel that my whole body is clear and plump, my heart is filled with infinite joy, as if I have landed in a fairyland. The deep affection aroused by the fragrance slowly flows down the tip of the tongue, and the intoxicating moistness is like gelatin, and there is only peace and tranquility. It relaxes the heart and intoxicates the soul, with the mellowness of grains, the fragrance of flowers and plants, the various forms of life, and the freedom of heaven and earth.
The dew enters the lips, and the pleasant sweet fragrance slowly overflows, filling and sinking...
After just one cup, King Ruyang became drunk with a smile.
I don’t know what he dreamed about...
Chang Chiman looked at King Ruyang, who had passed away drunkenly, and knew that the fate of the relationship had come to an end. He reached into his sleeves, searched around in them, took out a book, a talisman, and an umbrella, and sent them to King Ruyang's desk. Then he took another look at the outstanding human prince. , silently reciting in his heart that the prince is precious, he waved his sleeves and robe, and a burst of water mist appeared. When the mist dissipated, Changchiman was nowhere to be seen in the hall.
When King Ruyang woke up again, it was already noon on the second day. He couldn't find Chang Chiman. He looked at the three things on the table again and knew that Chang Chiman had left. He couldn't help but feel a little empty in his heart. He just clenched the jade bottle in his hand. , bowed again towards the hall door, still a disciple's salute.
After that, King Ruyang borrowed the true energy of heaven and earth in the jade bottle and followed the instructions in that book. As expected, his practice became much smoother and smoother. Although he still practiced the true energy of the secular world, his strength was stronger than before. I don't know how many times, after several years of hard work, he has reached the first-level realm. In the following decades, he has become even more powerful and powerful, and his cultivation is unfathomable. It's just that he has always hidden his clumsiness and the world doesn't know it. He died without any illness at the age of more than ninety. Such a lifespan is rare in the emperor's family. It is difficult to know whether it is related to Changchiman. Of course, these are things for later, so I won't say more at this moment.
"Escort, escort, come quickly!"
Chang Chiman's memories were interrupted by sharp shouts. Looking for the sound, he looked over and saw that it was the eunuch Li Zhu'er who was wearing a red robe. At this moment, Li Zhu'er stretched out his body and lay on An Lushan's body, protecting An Lushan with all his body, not caring about the yellow urine flowing under An Lushan's body, while protecting An Lushan's head. Facing hysterical shouting all around.
Li Zhuer's shout soon attracted a large number of guards. Those Xi tribe warriors with ferocious faces and burly bodies were all wearing heavy armor, with long swords unsheathed, and shields forming a wall. In a moment, they had formed a wall inside and outside. The three-layered shield array tightly wrapped Anlushan Li Zhuer.
An Lushan was trembling in the shield formation, and he could only thrust his head into Li Zhuer's arms. The sword energy had frightened him, and he was trembling with fear.
After a long time, An Lushan finally regained his composure under Li Zhuer's comfort. He panted heavily and slowly got up. He looked at the master guard close at hand and felt a little more at peace. He finally stood up to Li Zhu'er. With Zhu'er's support, he stood up tremblingly. Li Zhuer put all his energy in feeding An Lushan and carried more than 300 kilograms of An Lushan's fat meat on his shoulders. He staggered forward. An Lushan's legs were so weak that he couldn't walk. He was about to fall down again. Zhuer hurriedly stepped forward and pushed his body downwards. An Lushan fell on top of Li Zhuer with a thud, almost killing Li Zhuer.
Seeing this, the personal guards in the two circles quickly put their swords into their sheaths, and one on the left and one on the right stepped forward to drive An Lushan up. After all, An Lushan was a master of internal guards with a tall body and a large horse. Although An Lushan was heavy, it could be lifted between two sides. It's not a big deal in the hands of a second-grade master.
Li Zhuer was free, took a deep breath, got up and shouted:
"Go back to the palace quickly!"
In the blink of an eye, these people hugged An Lushan and Li Zhuer and returned to the palace. Only the rebel ministers lying on the ground like dead dogs were left in the square, while the Luoyang Taishi Bureau Chang held several people standing. Take a panoramic view of the ugly behavior of the so-called "Yan" royal family!
An Lushan returned to the palace. There was no movement for half an hour, and then for an hour. There was still no movement until it was almost dark. People in the square did not receive instructions and did not dare to act at will. Chang Chiman and the others were okay, they just stood longer, but like Yan Zhuang Gaoshang and other close advisers, they were so frightened by the sword energy that they urinated and finally recovered and transformed from dogs into humans again. But the yellow and white dirt stained on the expensive silk official robes on my body, because it was summer, I wore less clothes and dried quickly, so it hardened in a short time. When the feces reached their crotch, they wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into, but without An Lushan's order, they didn't dare to crawl into it. A few people could only stand there, shaking off their clothes from time to time, stamping their legs and feet, secretly playing with their crotches and buttocks with their hands, pinching the robes and trousers of their lower bodies with their fingertips, and pulling them out, but no matter how hard they pulled, the touch and smell... It was still so obvious that the efforts of several people had little effect.
Chang Chiman and the others looked at the embarrassing appearance of these extremely human ministers from Dayan Kingdom, who covered the sky with one hand, and sneered in their hearts. As for the unique smell in the wind, it can't invade their bodies at all. They always maintain an open field to isolate the smell. Among them was a subordinate from the Taishi Bureau who was very naughty. He secretly used means to imprison the energy of heaven and earth around Yan Zhuang Gaoshang and the others. They were like eggs. Yan Zhuang Gaoshang and the others were the yolks, and the smell on their bodies could not escape. Go, because the outside air can't come in, it won't cause you to suffocate to death, but the unique deliciousness brewed is guaranteed to be unforgettable for a few of them.
Chang Chiman pretended not to see the pranks played by his subordinates. He smiled and closed his eyes to rest, thinking about the people opposite him basking in the sun and smelling their excrement and urine. How wonderful, how wonderful!
It wasn't until the sun had set that the eunuch who delivered the order came.
"In compliance with the order, Changzhi Man went to the palace to pay his respects, and everyone else retreated!"
At this moment, the eunuch's sharp voice sounded like the sound of nature to Yan Zhuang Gaoshang and others. These people immediately kowtowed and thanked them. After standing up, a few people did not say hello. They lowered their heads and ran out of the palace gate. They took off their clothes as they ran. In a flash, no one could be seen. They were very agile!
The people in the Taishi Bureau were all focused on Chang Chiman at this moment. The wild emperor had made such a big mistake today. They would order a summons, and they didn't know whether it would embarrass Chang Chiman. Chang Chiman was still unhurried. Although he was not tall, he was very stable. He waved his hands slightly towards the crowd and stopped their whispers. Everyone was silent at the moment. Chang Chiman put his hand into his Taoist robe, took out a piece of dead tree root, shook it towards everyone, and then said:
"I am grateful for your concern. I think that although that person made a fool of himself today, he was even more frightened. He is already afraid of my respected teacher and will probably not make things difficult for me. If the situation is really dangerous, I will I have my own way of escaping, but I’m just afraid that it will harm others!”
Yes, although his body is a wine vat and he is destined to have no descendants of blood, he does have apprentices. The apprentices have wives, children, and children. If it weren't for these fetters, An Lushan wouldn't be able to catch An Lushan for a hundred years with his skills. he.
Everyone didn't know how to comfort them, so they could only adapt to the situation. When they looked at the dead tree root in Chang Chiman's hand, they felt a lot more at ease, and they couldn't help but feel a little envious despite being worried. Having a good master is happiness. Looking at that dead tree root, they would be lying if they said they were not envious.
Besides, the piece of dead tree root Chang Chiman is holding in his hand has a name called "Cha". It is the knot or root knot left after the ancient tree was cut down, because it has a rugged and dragon-shaped shape. The dragon spirit and many wooden trees are not ordinary in the first place. They have been accumulated for countless years and have gone through vicissitudes. After the practitioners refine them and realize the power of the years, they can get twice the result with half the effort and complement each other. Immortals used the refined wooden oak to cross rivers, seas and stars. Riding on such a wooden tree that is decayed on the outside and beautiful on the inside makes it even more mysterious and otherworldly.
During the Han Dynasty, Zhang Qian was ordered by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to search for the source of the Yellow River. On the way, he met a sea fairy and was invited to ride a boat up the river. They floated across the sea to the source of the Tianhe River, where they met the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl. Zhang Qian took the loom given by the Weaver Girl. He returned from pressing cloth stones and taught the people the weaving skills. The immortal who walked around was also greatly rewarded by Emperor Wu. Since then, whether they are immortals crossing the water to ask questions, immortal girls brewing wine to celebrate birthdays, or practitioners gathering to discuss, they have imitated this method one after another. Many people have chosen to refine the wooden tree and walk, whether they are crossing water, flying in the sky, or It is an elegant and practical magic weapon for escaping enemies.
I want to take a ride, but I am a poor man.
Inquire deeply and gain enlightenment!
The wooden tree in Chang Chiman's hand was a gift from Ye Jinneng, and it was more extraordinary than the ordinary fairy tree. Its body is a thousand-year-old bodhi root, which was refined into a treasure by Ye Jingneng, and after years of warmth and polishing by Changzhi, it has become a rock-solid treasure with speed and lightning. Whether it is fighting or escaping, It’s all a big help. When everyone saw that Chang Chiman had taken out this life-saving trump card, they naturally no longer worried. Even those half-baked monks hired by An Lushan were stinking fish and rotten shrimps, and they were using this Immortal Cha to taint the treasure.
Chang Chiman exchanged a few more pleasantries with everyone, gave some important instructions, and then followed the eunuch into the palace. After a while, he arrived at Anlu Mountain's palace.
At this moment, Anlu Mountain was guarded by no fewer than a hundred people, all of whom were worldly masters. The evil monks who had been recruited were all dispatched, and they were arranged around the throne of Anlu Mountain, as if they were facing a formidable enemy. An Lushan himself was huddled on the seat, wrapped in a thick felt blanket on a hot day, sweat dripping from his forehead, and he didn't know whether it was cold or hot!
As for the jade sword, it was lying quietly in the wooden box at the moment, cute and cute, looking harmless to humans and animals. An Lushan didn't dare to look at the wooden box. He wanted to smash the wooden box and the jade sword into pieces, but he just didn't dare. The wooden box seemed to have grown eyes and legs, always following An Lushan, always keeping two feet. Regardless of the distance, no matter how he hides, the wooden box will follow him. The word "leaf" engraved on it is tormenting An Lushan like an inner demon.
An Lushan did not beat around the bush, he directly asked Chang Chiman what should be done with this jade sword? Chang Chiman did not salute, but simply replied:
"Your Majesty, don't be impatient. Please wait for me to cast the spell. As for the true meaning, only my master can know it!"
An Lushan was afraid that Chang Chiman would change something for some reason, so he waved his hand, and his subordinates brought a dozen children to the temple. Chang Chiman looked around and saw that these children who were tied up with five flowers were his disciples. Behind each child stood a Hu soldier, with the blade on the children's necks. An Lushan's intention could not be more obvious.
Chang Chiman smiled coldly. He looked at An Lushan. The magic formula in his hand had begun to change. The jade sword in the wooden box began to tremble because it sensed the breath of the unique Taoism. It slowly faded and finally became A cloud.
Slowly, the sound of wind and thunder came out from the clouds, faintly accompanied by people's footsteps.
Who will come?
