Volume 6 Journey to the West Chapter 112 Yuan shows up, and the gambling fight begins!
The poem says: The capital city is really worth looking at, and the eight rivers flow around the four mountains. ≥ How many emperors have developed here? Chang'an has been said in ancient times.
Time flies, and eighteen years have passed in a flash.
In Chang'an, the Tang Dynasty, the tiger occupies a dragon plate, and the dragon pillar soars into the sky.
Ten years ago, the rebellion of the Song Dynasty had been completely quelled, eliminated the rebellion, and unified the Eastern Land. In these ten years, the national strength of the Tang Dynasty increased day by day.
It is a peaceful and prosperous era for the country and the people.
The surging river water kept flowing, and the sound of the flowing water came out from the rolling river water of the Jing River.
On the bank of Shunjing River, a woodcutter with an axe on his waist, and a fisherman wearing a straw hat and a harpoon in his arms. The two walked side by side, with a gentle temperament, just like a Jinshi who passed the imperial examination.
Looking at the surging river of Jing River, the fisherman sighed leisurely and preached, "Brother Li, I think those who compete for fame lose their bodies because of fame; those who seize profits lose their bodies for profit; those who receive titles sleep with tigers; those who receive favors leave with snakes. In terms of this, it is not as good as our beautiful waters, green mountains, free and easy, sweet and indifferent, and passing by with the flow."
Woodcutter Li Ding said: "Brother Zhang is right. But your beauty is not as beautiful as my mountains."
Fisherman Zhang Shao said: "Your mountains are not as beautiful as mine."
There is a poem called "Butterfly Love Flower" as evidence. It says: The boat is small in smoke and waves, quiet on the lonely tent, and the sound of Xi Shi is surrounded by the thoughts. I cleanse my heart, fame and fortune, and I am leisurely climbing the reeds and grass. I can enjoy the journey of several sand gulls, and the willow bank and the reeds, and my wife laughs together. I sleep peacefully, without honor, disgrace, and worries."
Li Ding said: "Your water is not as beautiful as my mountain green. There is also a poem "Butterfly Love Flower" as evidence. The poem says: A section of the cloud forest is full of pine flowers, and I listen to the singing of the orioles silently. The tongue is like a tutor. Red, thin, green, fat, spring is warm, and the summer solstice is turning. It is also easy to change. The fragrance of yellow flowers is for fun. Quick and severe winter is like a finger. No one cares about all seasons." The fisherman said: "Your mountain is not as beautiful as my water, and I enjoy some good things. There is a poem "Quail Sky" as evidence. The clouds and water in the fairyland are full of life, and the oars and boats are home. Live fresh scales and cook green turtles, steamed purple crabs and red shrimps. Green asparagus, water buds, and water horn chicken heads are even more praising. The delicate lotus, the old lotus, celery leaves are tender, and the charismatic mushrooms and wild rice birds are the flowers."
The two of them compare their poems and express their words in a perfect way, pointing their fingers and pointing their fingers. It is truly a wise man in the market.
As the two were talking, they clashed with words. The woodcutter Li Ding said: "Your livelihood on the water is extremely fierce and dangerous, and it is faintly and secret. What are you going to do?"
Fisherman Zhang Shao said, "You don't know. There is a man who sells hexagrams in Chang'an City, on Ximen Street. I give him a golden carp every day, and he will teach me a lesson with me, depending on the direction. Today I go to buy hexagrams again. He taught me to go down the net on the east side of the head of Jinghe Bay and throw fishing on the west bank. I will definitely get a load of fish and shrimps. I will come to the city tomorrow. I will sell money and wine, and then talk to my brother."
This is exactly what I talked on the road. There was someone in the grass. It turned out that there was a Yasha patrolling the water in Jinghe River Palace. He heard all kinds of words. He turned to the Crystal Palace and hurriedly reported to the Dragon King:
"The disaster is going on! The disaster is going on!" The Dragon King asked, "What is the disaster?" Yasha said, "I went to the river to go to the river and only heard two fishermen and woodcutters climbing. When they parted, their words were very beneficial. The fisherman said, "There is a hexagram selling man on Ximen Street in Chang'an City, which is the most accurate calculation. He sent him a carp every day, and he would pass on a lesson and teach him all the time. If he calculated according to this, he would not beat the water clan as much as possible? How could he magnificent the water palace and how could he jump and waves to assist the king's power?" The Dragon King was very angry and hurriedly raised his sword and was about to go to Chang'an City to kill the hexagram selling man. Longzi, Longsun, shrimp minister, crab soldiers, and military advisors of the man, and Li Taizai, and they all started to speak together:
"King, please calm down. As the saying goes, you should not believe what you say when you pass by. When the king goes, there will be clouds and rain, which will be afraid that the people of Chang'an will be shocked. The heaven will be blamed. The king is unpredictable and has no way of change, but he only becomes a beautiful man. He will go to Chang'an City to visit. If there is such a person, it is not too late to be punished. If there is no such person, wouldn't it be a rude harm to others?" The Dragon King then abandoned his sword and did not prosper. He went out on the shore and transformed himself into a beautiful man in white. He was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he was so handsome that he
He came up the road and pulled open the Yunzhu and went straight to the street of the west gate of Chang'an City. He saw a group of people, crowded and noisy, and said loudly: "The birth of the dragon is the conflict between the tiger. Yin, Chen, Si and Hai is called a combination of the situation, but I am afraid that the day will be invaded by the year." When the Dragon King heard this, he knew that it was the place where the divination was sold. He walked forward, separated everyone, and watched,
But I saw a gentleman sitting on the upper end with his head held high, with a strange appearance and a beautiful appearance, which made people convinced at first sight.
When he looked away and looked down, he saw a Taoist in Mayi, with big ears and white beards and slightly wider forehead, which was the appearance of blessings and longevity.
I was going to go forward and speak, but I swallowed it.
But then I thought about the tragic death of the aquarium and being salvaged constantly, and I felt a little frustrated. What can the national master do?
He and he did not violate the river water. As long as he did not provoke him, Liang would not dare to offend Xihai. The Yue people stepped forward and bowed to the person in the upper leader and found a seat to sit down.
A boy offered tea at a time. The gentleman asked;
"What's the matter?" said the Dragon King; "I'll tell you what's going on in the sky."
The gentleman immediately passed on a lesson and said, "The clouds are blurred on the top of the mountain, and the fog covers the top of the forest. If the rain is occupied, it will be in the Ming Dynasty."
The Dragon King said: "When will it rain tomorrow? How big is the rain?"
The gentleman said: "Tomorrow, clouds are spread at the hour of the year, thunder is coming, it rains at noon, and it rains before it rains. A total of three feet, three inches, and four hundred and forty-eight o'clock are wet."
The Dragon King smiled and said, "This is not a joke. If there is rain tomorrow, according to the number of hours you have cut off, I will send you a 50 taels of money to thank you. If there is no rain or not according to the number of hours, I will tell you that you will definitely break your storefront, tear your signs, and drive out of Chang'an immediately. Don't be deceived here!"
The gentleman replied happily: "You must be allowed to do this. Please, please invite it, Ming Dynasty rain will come later."
The Dragon King struts with his head held high and leaves directly with big strides.
"A good show, it's really a good show," the Taoist said in his heart, but he was secretly happy. He waited for a few years and came here every day, and finally waited for this scene.
"Sir, please forgive me. I have something to do today. Let's say goodbye for the time being," the Taoist stood up, bowed to the other party, and then turned around and walked away. He was extremely casual.
The drama has already begun, and there is no need to watch it next.
But if you want this scene to continue, you still have to go to the palace in person.
The Taoist acted vigorously and without any pause. Thinking of this, he walked straight towards the palace.
When he came outside the palace, he walked forward with great strides, unobstructed, tall and heavily armored guards turned a blind eye to the Taoist.
The Daming Palace is still the same. After many years, there has been no change here. The tiles are as bright as before, with rich dragon energy, even more ten times better than before. The magic power is obscure, and the whole body is like carrying a heavy mountain.
Under the dragon energy, no matter the power of gods, immortals, and demons, they are suppressed and cannot be used.
"National Master!" A middle-aged man with a beard on his lips was wearing a bright yellow robe and saluted respectfully at the Taoist.
Etiquette is meticulous and there is absolutely no deviation.
"Thank you for your hard work, please inform me. I will say that I want to see the king," said the Taoist peacefully.
"No need to inform. The father has already ordered the national magistrate to come to the Daming Palace. You can enter at any time," the prince replied casually without hesitation.
"Why should I, if I enter this secret place, please inform me?" The Taoist shook his head, but did not move forward, but spoke.
Hearing this, the prince responded and walked towards the Daming Palace himself.
Looking at the figure of the prince, a trace of complexity appeared in the Taoist gaze. Time flies, but inadvertently, more than ten years have passed.
The child who used to listen to the Taoist's words has now passed the teenager and has become a middle-aged man.
The Taoist had the first time indifference to mortals, no wonder all the immortals in the world had the same emotions as the mortals.
Time can wash away everything, have become immortals, and have a life of more than 100,000 years. Naturally, the Taoist, who has only been indifferent to this mortal who has only been in the spring and autumn for more than a hundred years.
I sighed in my heart. I saw that the immortal regarded mortals as ants. The Taoist has not been like this yet, but as time goes by, the Taoist will sooner or later be the same.
This is not something that Taoists can decide. In deep feelings, they will fade with the passage of time. If you make vows and make promises, you can only smile after a hundred years.
Seeing the prince's figure walking out of the Daming Palace, the Taoist took a step forward and slowly walked into the Daming Palace.
In the Daming Palace, the King of Tang was sitting upright at the table, and opposite him was a Taoist, with a long beard beating his chest and looking amazing. If he looked closely, he would be almost the same as the fortune teller he saw when the Taoist left shortly.
This person was Yuan Tiangang, the head of the Imperial Heaven Supervision Bureau of the dynasty.
The two were talking while they saw the Taoist walking in, and they greeted each other.
"This game is a draw," King Tang put down the chess piece in his hand and said with a smile.
"The king is so bad. I'm going to kill the big dragon. How can it be considered a draw?" Yuan Tiangang shook his head, but said veto.
In this mythical world filled with gods and demons, although royal power is important, they are not supreme. The divine power is even more supreme. If you want to experience the feeling of being alone and supreme, then you are purely coming to the wrong place.
Although the King of Tang is noble, unless Yuan Tiangang has no ability, he is a cheating person who cheats food and drinks.
But this is obviously impossible. As a person with real skills, he is not afraid of Tang King Yuan Tiangang. Secular power is not in his eyes. He was an official in the Tang Dynasty and planned for luck.
"The national magistrate must have important things to come. I will talk about this situation until I finish the matter," King Tang did not respond at all. His eyes moved from Yuan Tiangang to the Taoist, and he quickly spoke in his mouth.
After a while, how could Yuan Tiangang believe such words?
This is just an excuse from the King of Tang, and it is the King of Tang who is cheating.
Shaking his head gently, Yuan Tiangang also put down the chess piece in his hand, then stood up, bowed to Taoist and Tang Wang, and then turned around and left directly.
Looking at Yuan Tiangang's figure leaving, the Taoist said slowly to the Tang King; "The uncle of the king is not inferior to this person, and the Imperial Heaven Supervision still lacks manpower, so he must not let him go,"
"I have also personally met Yuan Shoucheng, but unfortunately he is not here, so I am helpless," King Tang sighed, obviously very eager for talents like Yuan Shoucheng, but when he thought of the last meeting in his mind, a little helplessness appeared on his face. For such a person who has real skills but has no desires and no desires, King Tang had no good way to impress the other party.
"Since I told the king, there is naturally a way. Yuan Shoucheng will have some troubles next. At that time, I need to trouble the king. The king can take advantage of this to propose solicitation to Yuan Shoucheng," the Taoist answered loudly.
"What's the matter?" The King of Tang showed a faint joy on his face.
Concealing emotions and not expressing emotions is a scheming. The King of Tang already possessed such a cunning life in his teens, but in front of the Taoist, the King of Tang did not hide anything. It was the most relaxing moment, and would reveal his true nature.
"I will first complain here. This matter cannot be said outside. If it is said, it will not work. This matter will have a result within a few days," said the Taoist.
"It's okay if the national teacher doesn't say it, the more I talk about it, the more I want to know it."
"My curiosity has been completely triggered by the national master. It is said that it is not possible. Can the national master give me some tips?" The King of Tang was unwilling to give up and asked the Taoist.
"This matter is related to a gambling battle that happened in Yuan Shoucheng today," the Taoist hesitated for a moment, but gave some clues.
"Everyone, go find out quickly?" Tang Wang moved his head for a moment and said to an official standing beside him.
"No!" The eunuch responded directly, then lowered his head, took small steps, and walked out of the Daming Palace step by step. Then his speed suddenly accelerated and disappeared from the Taoist's vision.
"Please ask the king to stop the dragon energy. The dragon energy is forbidden outside the Daming Palace, otherwise this thing will not happen," the Taoist seemed to have thought of something and then spoke.
"According to the words of the national teacher," the King of Tang agreed directly without thinking.
If this was said by other people, the King of Tang would definitely be suspected of having ulterior motives. However, if it were a Taoist, the King of Tang trusted him very much, and the other party would not do anything that would harm the Tang Dynasty.
The eunuch moved quickly, and soon he had returned, and began to mutter in a low voice in the ear of the Tang King.
"Gambling on rainwater points?" The King of Tang was a little surprised and said to the Taoist differently.
“That’s exactly that,”
"Yuan Shoucheng was gambling with the rain," the Taoist stretched out his arm and pointed his finger in one direction.
