The first chapter 300 years later
Yingdao County, Daozhou, in the 19th year of Tang Zhenguan.
It’s rare for a person to live in a lonely valley, and a group of people walk slowly.
The setting sun shone from the mountains, covering the golden field with weeds, and a breeze blew through it, slowly drawing a light and shadow on the wild grass. A low mountain reflection paved the edge of the wilderness reflection, which just fell on the trail of this group of people and let them walk in the soft shadow.
The most important thing is a carriage with a lady and a little girl about ten years old. There are soldiers in front of the carriage and slaves behind it, which shows that the mother and daughter are rich and wealthy.
The carriage went on for a long time until the reflection of the mountain became bigger and bigger, and they were completely submerged.
The carriage stopped, and a wife came to the window and said, "My wife has been walking for so long, but I haven’t seen what she said. Is Mrs. Taoist wrong?"
"It can’t be wrong," said the lady. "I was here ten years ago when I was in trouble. The Taoist temple was the Queen Mother. At that time, I was scared. The teacher in the temple said that I would eventually become rich and have a daughter. It wasn’t long before I gave birth to this child and my husband’s unjust imprisonment was vindicated."
The old woman laughed. "Madam, you must have been too scared and had a strange dream. It turned out that the host in the Taoist temple was a teacher. How could it be? Do nuns also worship the heavenly queen? "
"Buddhist female brothers can’t worship the Queen Mother of the West?" As the lady spoke, the wife helped the carriage and looked around in disbelief.
At this time, the girl in the car also came out with the board. The lady hurriedly said, "Don’t come out if you are in poor health."
Although the girl has been riding by car, she is still pale because of the steep slope along the road. Her delicate body is already trembling with fatigue, but she still gently shakes her head. "Mom, I’m fine."
This lady is the wife of Nie Feng, the commander of Daozhou Zuowu, because her daughter has been sickly since she was born, and she can’t afford to seek medical advice or pray to God and worship Buddha. But one night, she dreamed that the fairy came and said that she had been blessed by the Queen Mother ten years ago when she was in trouble, but she never returned to the Taoist temple to make a wish. This provoked heaven to blame and punish her daughter. If she wants to make her daughter safe, she needs to return to her hometown to make a wish.
When Mrs Nie woke up, she felt that her dream was clearer than that of punishing her daughter for being wrong. It was not too unreasonable that day, but she was afraid that she would come with her daughter in a hurry.
Who knows that this road did not find the Taoist temple where she took refuge in the past.
Mrs. Nie took her daughter in a carriage and led her to the grass for a while. She saw that it was getting darker and darker, and she was thinking to herself, Do you want to camp out in the wild? I’ve suffered a lot, but forget it. Is this child physically able to stand it?
I was thinking about the girl when I suddenly reached out and asked, "Mom, is that where we are going?"
Mrs. Nie looked ahead and saw that there seemed to be a cloud moving away from the mountain, but actually a Xiayun came around the mountain and a quaint and solemn Taoist temple fell on the mountainside.
Those soldiers and slaves are rubbing their eyes, and even the wife murmured, "So conspicuous, but I haven’t seen it just now?" Isn’t there a ghost? "
Mrs. Nie glanced at her wife and was slightly annoyed. "We are here to worship God and wish. How can we be suspicious?"
Wife dare not say anything.
Mrs. Nie took her daughter back to the car and told them to continue on their way. Who knows, it took another half hour, but the sunset had set, but they still didn’t reach the foot of the mountain. It seemed that no matter how far they went, the Taoist temple was so far away that they couldn’t get there.
When everyone was shocked, there was a Taoist with a basket of flowers who came through the night and sang, "The legacy of the Qing Emperor was recited for ten thousand times and rose for three days; Thousands of disasters have been eliminated, and all diseases have been revived. Where are you going? "
The wife saw that the Taoist was strange and replied, "We are going to that mountain, but we can’t get there."
Taoist laughed. "It’s strange that you have to get here. Do you know where this place is and what mountain it is? I’m telling you that the name Cangwuye here is the shadow of Shun Di’s soaring Cangwu Mountain, and that mountain is called Fangshan Mountain, where nine waters flow out and the Tianhe River flows out. Is that how you can get there? "
Mrs. Nie thought that the origin of this Taoist was afraid of some wonders. She hurried to the carriage to salute and ask the name. The Taoist smiled and replied, "I can’t remember my last name, but I don’t know when everyone called me a Magu, so I called myself a Magu."
Mrs. Nie was shocked and thought, "It is said that there is a fairy named Ma Gu in the Chinese Queen Mother. Is that her?"
Although Mrs Nie gave birth to this idea, she still didn’t really believe that she could meet a fairy. Nevertheless, she bowed to Ma Gu and asked, "I was in that mountain ten years ago …"
Ma Gu asked, "Did you go on foot or by bus?"
Mrs. Nie said, "I was desperate to avoid the thief’s tracking and I didn’t have a carriage …"
Ma Gu smiled, "This is it."
Disappeared with the wind
When people saw this Taoist coming, it was as if she had disappeared in the wind, and they believed that she was really a fairy. She knelt down unconsciously to look at the big worship, and Mrs. Nie also woke up and abandoned her daughter Nie Yinniang’s carriage.
She took Yin Niang for a while and saw that Fangshan was getting closer and closer.
Behind them, the night is filled with gloom, but Fangshan still emits a faint red light around Xiayun.
Mrs Nie felt sorry for her daughter who wanted to carry her, but she shook her head and whispered, "My mother’s daughter is still walking. The nun said that she can’t take a carriage when she wants to enter the fairy mountain. Wouldn’t it be even more difficult for her to carry her?"
Please look forward to Taiyi Xianyin’s second "Taiyi White Wheel"!
