3. Yi Cheng descends the mountain
In fact, the black tiger that took Dou Bobi away was not an ordinary tiger, but the spiritual beast mount of an expert in the mountains. When the black tiger took Dou Bobi into a cave, Dou Bobi opened his eyes and saw an old mage sitting on the futon. His hair was like the white snow of three winters, and his beard was as long as nine frosts. Holding a whisk, he has kind eyebrows and kind eyes, an immortal demeanor, and is full of the spirit of an immortal. Recalling the situation when he was in danger and intercepted in the valley, Dou Bobi was still frightened. At this moment, what he was most worried about was the safety of his mother Yun Ji. He hurriedly ran to the master, knelt down and begged: "Master, save my mother, save my mother!"
The mage hurriedly helped him up and comforted him: "Young master, don't worry. Your mother is protected by General Qu. She is out of danger and is on her way to Douyi."
Dou Bobi said, and then he felt relieved. He thanked the mage and was about to leave the cave. The mage asked him where he was going. Dou Bobi said, "Go to my mother. She will be worried if she can't see me!"
The mage nodded silently and said secretly: He is indeed a filial son. I did not misjudge the person... So he said: "Sir, please stay. The mage at your mother's place will send a messenger to tell you. It is enough to meet you here." You are destined to meet this master. You will have a good future in the future. The most important thing now is to strengthen your foundation and strengthen your will. You must worship me as your teacher. There are two volumes of "State Governing Strategy". The first volume "Foundation of the Country" is about governing the army. The second volume of the formation strategy, "Strengthening the Nation," is a strategy for establishing a country and safeguarding the people. Once you have read these two volumes familiarly, I will let you go down the mountain!"
Dou Bobi was overjoyed to see him and immediately performed the apprenticeship ceremony. It turns out that this master is none other than Rong Chengzi, a famous astronomer and health care expert in ancient times. Legend has it that Rong Chengzi once served as the teacher of the Yellow Emperor, the leader of the Five Emperors, and practiced Taoism to become an immortal. He knew everything about astronomy and geography, and the Yin and Yang Bagua were unparalleled in the world. He left Dou Bobi in the cave, studying literature on two days and practicing martial arts on one day. Dou Bobi was born with a smart mind, and he could master a little bit of literature, Taoism and martial arts... From then on, Dou Bobi stayed in the mountains to study literature and martial arts with his master. The volume is thoroughly read.
Unknowingly, more than ten years have passed, and Dou Bobi has transformed from a child into a handsome young man. Not only has he practiced unrivaled martial arts, but his literary and military skills are also top-notch.
One morning, Dou Bobi was practicing martial arts on the hillside when he saw Rong Chengzi coming out of the cave. Dou Bobi hurriedly ran to Rong Chengzi and said affectionately: "Master, if there are any shortcomings in my apprenticeship, I hope the master can give me advice!"
Rong Chengzi said with a smile: "My disciple has mastered both kung fu and strategy, and has reached the point where he can do whatever he wants. Now he can go down the mountain and do something!"
Dou Bobi said, "Thank you for the compliment, master. In fact, the disciple is still far behind. Besides, the disciple is reluctant to leave the master. Why is the master in such a hurry to drive the disciple away?"
Rong Chengzi said: "After being away for more than ten years, don't you miss your mother in Douyi?"
Dou Bobi said: "I care about you, why don't you care about me? But I can't bear to leave my master... How about this, the master and I go down the mountain together, and the disciple can see his mother, serve his master, and listen to his teachings all the time. It can be said that he kills two birds with one stone, master." What do you think?"
Rong Chengzi smiled and said: "How can there be anything perfect in the world? Besides, I am used to being quiet as a teacher, and I don't want to get involved in the world and cause trouble!" Then he took out a gourd and said: "This is a gourd from the beginning of chaos. The gourd is named Qiankun Xuanyang gourd. When using this gourd, you must memorize 108 gourd-opening spells. The upper 36 are life-saving spells, and the lower 72 are evil-suppressing spells. Carry this gourd with you, it will definitely come in handy in the future!"
Dou Bobi said, he quickly collected the treasure gourd, said goodbye to his master, and walked down the mountain.
After the fight with Bobi was carried away by the black tiger, Yun Ji was devastated. Seeing that the three men, red, blue and black, were pressing hard, Qu Nai's father had no choice but to carry Yun Ji on his back, jump off the cliff, and escape safely with his extreme lightness.
When she came to the edge of a forest, Yun Ji was heartbroken and cried bitterly at the thought of her son being taken away by a black tiger. Qu Nai's father advised: "Madam, don't be sad! At the end of the day, I will see that the black tiger has an auspicious aura on its head. The young master must have been rescued by an expert. Madam has never heard that Lei Zhenzi, the 100th son of King Wen, died after breaking up with King Wen. The story of Yun Zhongzi, a foreign master, who rescued me and took him as his disciple. He went down the mountain to help King Wen escape from danger and returned to Xiqi? Maybe the young master is like this, and he might come back when. If the young master comes back in the future, he will definitely come to Dou Yi to find you. Here It’s not far from Douyi, so why not go to Douyi first and then send someone to look for the young master before it’s too late..."
Qu Nai's father was comforting Yun Ji when suddenly a group of people came galloping towards them. The leader was about 20 years old, with big round ears, green eyes and short beard. He was Mrs. Zhou's younger brother, Xiong Yuan, younger brother of the late emperor Xiong Yi, and Zhou Li, brother-in-law of Young Master Xiong. It turned out that Young Master Xiong was granted the title of Douyi after Let Zhou Li, the right leader (a mid-level general in the army), be stationed here. When he heard that Yun Ji mother and son were coming to the fiefdom, Mr. Xiong ordered Zhou Li to come and greet them. Zhou Li was surprised to learn that the mother and son were robbed and killed on the way, and that Dou Bobi's whereabouts were unknown. Seeing that it was getting late, Zhou Lu decided to take them back to Douyi first, and then send people to look for Dou Bobi.
The next morning, Zhou Luo sent people into the mountains to look for Dou Bobi. Everyone searched the surrounding mountains and forests for several days, but found nothing. Yun Ji had no choice but to set up an altar in her residence, burn incense every day, and pray every night, begging God to protect her son's safety and return smoothly.
The second son, Xiong Yuan, had four children: Dou Min, Dou Yuqiang, Dou Qi, and Dou Lian. The second son Xiong asked Zhou Li to teach them literature and martial arts. The eldest son, Dou Min, and the third son, Dou Qi, were born gentle and gentle, while the second son, Dou Yuqiang, and the fourth son, Dou Lian, were born with strong arms and strong strength. All four children worked very hard. Seeing the children of Mr. Xiong and thinking of her own son, Yun Ji was worried all day long and shed tears. Mrs. Zhou was there to give her good advice. With Mrs. Zhou and her son by her side, Yun Ji's broken heart finally found some solace.
One night, Yun Ji was burning incense and praying in front of the altar again. Suddenly, a yellow flag floated down from the beam. Yun Ji picked it up and looked at it, only to see two lines of words written on it:
Don't miss your mother when you are in the fairy mountain. You will be reunited when you finish your studies!
Doesn't this mean that the son is still alive? It must have been her sincerity that moved God, who sent a special messenger to deliver the letter... Yun Ji was so happy that she wiped the tears from her eyes and kowtowed to the throne.
More than ten years passed in the blink of an eye. Xiong Kan, the 18th king of Chu, died of illness within six years of his reign. Xiong Juan, the 19th king of Chu, inherited the throne because of Chu Fu.
In the spring of about 745 BC, in order to encourage farming and accumulate wealth, Chu Fu, dressed in tattered clothes like his ancestors, led hundreds of officials to Jingshan to reclaim wasteland and open fields. At this moment, a huge creature suddenly jumped out of the mountain forest, with a dragon's head, a horse's body, and a lin's feet. It was shaped like a lion, with gray fur, and it rushed towards the bear with its bloody mouth open. Xiong Zhen was so frightened that he rolled down the slope. All the officials looked earth-colored and ran away in all directions. At the critical moment, Qu Naifu grabbed a tree stick as thick as a bowl and hit it on the monster's head. There was a "crack" sound, and the tree stick broke into two pieces. The monster roared loudly, and the mountains and the earth suddenly shook. When the monster pounced on Xiong Zhen again, suddenly a figure fell from mid-air and landed on the monster's back. Seeing this, the monster roared again, and raised its front hooves in the air like a human, trying to knock off the person riding on its back. The man held the monster's ears with both hands, and held the beast's body tightly with his legs, as if he was attracted to it like a magnet. Seeing that the man on its back could not be lifted off, the monster rolled on the spot, and the man jumped aside. Looking at the trees next to them, they were rolled down in large pieces. When the monster stood up again and pounced on the man, the man jumped on the monster's back again. The monster suddenly had wind on all four hooves and ran down the mountain with the man on its back. After a while, the monster came back carrying the man, already docile. When the man jumped off the monster's back, Xiong Zhen saw clearly that he was a young general wearing a golden helmet and armor, with a heroic appearance and extraordinary bearing. The young man walked up to Xiong Zhen and cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, Bobi!"
Xiong Zhen was startled at first. When he heard that he was Dou Bobi who was kidnapped by a black tiger more than ten years ago, he couldn't help but punch him in the chest and said happily: "You are Bo... Bi? Come on. He is still my brother-in-law! Compared with Uncle Wang, well, well, my great Chu has another brave general!" Then he asked: "What is this monster that you surrendered?"
Dou Bobi said: "This beast is called Pixiu. Although it has a ferocious temperament, it is actually an auspicious beast. If this beast appears here, it will definitely bring good luck to my great Chu!"
Xiong Zhen was overjoyed when he heard this and gave the beast to Dou Bobi as a mount.
At this moment, a burly young man stepped up, looked Dou Bobi up and down, suppressed his inner excitement and asked, "Are you Uncle Bobi?"
Dou Bobi hesitated and said: "You are..."
The man said: "I am Xiong Tong!"
"Xiong Tong?" Dou Bobi said, taking a step forward and the two hugged each other tightly.
