Chapter 195: The Fairy Xin, the messenger of the underworld
Chapter 195 Xin Pingping, Immortal, Messenger of the Underworld
Before Song Lin could think carefully, he suddenly felt a sense of dizziness.
Song Lin opened his eyes and saw himself lying on a thatched bullock cart with the bright starry sky above his head.
"What a nice view!"
The stars are bright and the mirror is high.
No matter where in the world the bright moon remains unchanged.
Song Lin looked around. There were dark and deep jungles on both sides, the sound of insects was piercing, and an old driver was sitting on the front of the bullock cart.
The coachman turned his head, grinned, and said, "My lord, are you awake? The thieves haven't caught up with you. You can rest for a while and we'll almost reach Luoyang."
"good."
Song Lin closed his eyes, and a series of memories emerged.
This person's name is Song Lin, and the dynasty in this world is called Tang Dynasty.
The details of the history are slightly different from those of the previous life, but the general outline is similar.
Song Lin was a native of Chang'an, without a father or a mother. He was raised by his uncle Song Jie, who was a jailer in Wannian County.
His predecessor was quite successful. He was admitted as a Jinshi in the eighth year of Yuanhe. Because of his outstanding talent and learning, and because he was in line with the emperor's philosophy of reforming bad government and pacifying feudal towns, he was awarded the title of Hanlin bachelor.
In the twelfth year of Yuanhe, he was framed due to a party dispute in the imperial court and was appointed as the magistrate of Yangwu County.
In the fifteenth year of Yuanhe, he was recalled to Chang'an by the imperial court and re-appointed.
Now on the way to Chang'an, I originally brought many attendants with me, but I encountered bandits on the road and only one coachman was left to follow.
Song Lin lay in the car and squinted his eyes, sensing the information in his mind.
Name: Song Lin
Realm: Alchemy Formation Stage
Daoxing: one hundred and two years.
Supernatural powers: Yunzhuan Xuanzi Jade Scripture, Innate Five Thunders and Heavenly Heart Master Secret Art, Tai Chi Xuan Zhen Seal of Heaven and Man, Heaven-Mending Demon Seed Technique, Innate Bagua Formation, Six Yang Platinum Divine Thunder, Tai Chi Thunder Escape Secret Technique...
Blessings: [Emperor's Seal] [Qi Control Six Void] [Xiuyue Great Witch] [Golden Crow Yang Pattern]
Fortunately, I also brought my realm and strength with me.
Generally, the upper limit of this kind of world will be very high.
Maybe there will be experts in the Zifu realm.
Song Lin can definitely fly to Chang'an, but for the first time here, he should be careful to avoid getting into trouble.
After all, I don’t know the reality of this world.
"Now it's about Tang Xianzong. If your guess is correct, it should be the story in my mind."
In the middle and late Tang Dynasty, vassal towns were separated and wars continued. This was also the period when myths about strange things were most popular, and gods and demons began to perform miracles.
Boom!
There was a loud thunder on the ground, and it started pouring rain from the sky.
There was a small shop just ahead, and the two decided to take shelter from the rain.
The bullock cart was tied outside the store, and when I walked into the store, I felt a sense of warmth.
The decoration is simple and there is only one old shopkeeper.
"Sir, do you want to stay in a hotel or stay in a hotel?"
"Everything is fine. Let's have something to eat first, some wine and a few plates of side dishes."
"Hello!"
After a while, the shopkeeper came up with wine and food.
"Sir, please use it slowly."
The inn is not big, there are only two tables, and there is a strange-looking man in green robe next to it.
Wow!
The door was pushed open again.
Two richly dressed officials and four attendants, their clothes were wet.
"The waiter is serving wine!"
A big man with a beard yelled.
He looked at two tables and finally chose to share a table with the green-robed guest.
The tall man with a beard raised his hand to the Confucian scholar in green and said with a smile: "Excuse me, brother, I am Xin Gong Gong. This is Cheng Shilian next to you. May I ask your surname?"
"Wang Zhen!"
A few people chatted and attracted Song Lin's attention.
"Xin Gongping...it is indeed him!"
Just as I guessed, this world originated from the story "Xin Pingping's Immortal" in "Xuanguailu".
This story originated from the Tang Dynasty. It tells the story of Xin Pingping, who was on his way back to Beijing to take office. He encountered a messenger from the underworld who sent the emperor to "go to heaven". The so-called "go to heaven" means ascending to heaven.
The story is strange, the language is horrifying, and it's impressive.
Different from ordinary stories, the story happens to be the timeline when Emperor Xianzong of the Tang Dynasty was killed by eunuchs. Later generations thought that it implied a conspiracy to usurp the throne, and they would definitely skip this chapter whenever they compiled the mysterious records.
The protagonist of the story is Xin Pingping, and this Wang Zhen is the messenger from the underworld.
In a few days, Wang Zhen will take Xin Gongping to Chang'an to witness with his own eyes the emperor's immortality.
Song Lin wanted to sneak in and see with his own eyes what this world was like.
There are many treasures from this period, such as King Qin’s Mountain Whip, Emperor Gaozu’s Snake-Slaying Sword, Shangqing Pearl, Golden Light Bean, Ten Thousand Poison Sand Sea, Poison Tree, Ancient Fierce Soldiers, etc.
There are also methods such as alchemy, military solution, immortality cultivation, etc.
Song Lin has read a lot of legends about monsters and monsters in the Tang Dynasty and is quite familiar with them.
Thinking of this, Song Lin invited the other standing attendants to take a seat.
Several people became familiar with each other.
The moment Wang Zhen saw Song Lin, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, but he didn't see the truth, he just felt that the appearance was a bit abrupt.
Xin's eyes lit up when he heard that Song Lin was also a Jinshi.
"Your Excellency will return to Beijing this time to report on your work, and you will surely rise to great heights soon."
"I don't dare. It would be a great honor for me to go back to Chang'an."
After a while, everyone was impressed by Song Lin's profound knowledge.
Xin Gongping was so drunk that his eyes were dim and he sighed:
"Everyone says, 'Among all things born in nature, I am the most spiritual.' Confucianism also says that humans are living beings. But I cannot know what I will eat tomorrow. Is this also spiritual?"
"Brother Xin, there is no need to be like this. The so-called fate is unpredictable. No one can know it. Before the imperial edict is issued, I don't know the day when I will return to Beijing."
Everyone sighed.
Except for Wang Zhen and Song Lin, all three of them were in the officialdom and were helpless in the face of such a dirty world.
"Perhaps I know that people's fate is nothing but destiny. Tomorrow you will settle in the Wang family and the Zhao family, and you will eat liver soup, fish maw, and yokan soup."
Everyone looked at each other and smiled, not believing it, thinking that this was just Wang Zhen's drunken words.
Wang Zhen made no excuse and remained silent all night. Wang Zhen disappeared the next day.
Song Lin, Xin Pingping and others stopped by and set off for Chang'an together.
In this way, Song Lin sneaked into Xin Pingping's team.
The next two days completely verified Wang Zhen's prediction.
Sure enough, they settled in the Wang family and the Zhao family, and the food they ate was exactly as Wang Zhen said.
Even Song Lin, who had known about it beforehand, couldn't help but be surprised.
This kind of divination is really powerful.
Having said that, I don’t know if Yuan Tiangang is still alive in this world, but it’s okay to have an inheritance. Yuan Tiangang’s Feng Shui is rare in the world and unrivaled.
In the evening, everyone met Wang Zhen again.
Under the darkness of night, Wang Zhen, the strange man in green robe, looked more and more mysterious.
"Do you know who I am?"
"It must be a hermitage in the mountains." Xin Pingping said.
"No, I am one of the Yin officials who welcomes the Emperor to the Immortal."
Everyone was shocked.
When the officials from the underworld come to welcome the emperor to heaven, isn't this the same as sending the emperor to heaven?
"Are you the only one who has been promoted to immortality by the Emperor?" Song Lin asked.
Others didn't know, but Song Lin just asked knowingly.
Standing on all sides were five hundred soldiers and a general in golden armor.
These people had dull expressions and pale faces, staring straight at them.
Mortal eyes cannot see, so Song Lin had to pretend not to know.
"There are also five hundred armored horses, a general, and I am also the general's staff."
"Where?" Xin Pingping asked.
"It's all on the left and right, invisible to the naked eye."
Xin and Cheng both felt a bit cold and trembled.
Then, Wang Zhen turned into smoke and disappeared.
The next day, Huayin County.
At night, everyone was drunk and intoxicated.
"The emperor's ascension to immortality is a major event in the world. Do you two want to follow us?" Wang Zhen suddenly invited.
