512, Yuan Daxian, Wuzhuangguan Town (seeking a monthly pass)
Wu Jue is a smart woman.
She is good at seizing opportunities.
At this moment, she revealed that she was willing to become Bai Gui's concubine. There were two reasons. One was to bet. From the verbal conversation between Bai Gui and Li Tai, she bet that Bai Gui's status was not low. Secondly, since Li Tai had decided to send
She became Bai Gui's concubine. If she showed her unwillingness, firstly, she would anger Li Tai, and secondly, she would not be able to get along with this Taoist...
Although it seems like a thoughtful decision, it is actually a helpless choice.
Wu Jue rubbed her head against Bai Gui's lower skirt, as gentle as a cat. The afternoon sun shone on her bright face, her eyebrows were lowered, and her eyes were evasive. It was obviously her first time to have sex.
Such despicable things are done to please the superior.
"No."
In the living room which was quiet for a while, Bai Gui refused.
If Wu Jue was really summoned to his residence, the Western monks wouldn't come to his door one by one. This would be a huge trouble.
"Taoist Master." Wu Juo bit his lip and tightly grasped the lower skirt of this thin Taoist robe.
"Taoist Priest, do you have any concerns?"
Li Tai said slightly surprised.
Bai Gui did not explain, but pointed out a clear path for Li Tai and Wu Jue, "Young ladies from the Wu family can enter Ganye Temple and become nuns."
Ganye Temple is a nun?
When the two heard this sentence, they also felt that this was a reliable method.
Although Ganye Temple was used to house the concubines of previous emperors who had never given birth, this does not mean that there are no other monks and nuns in Ganye Temple. Relatively speaking, the proportion of concubines is not high.
Li Tai and Wu Jue are "incompatible", Li Tai is strong, and Wu Jue is weak. Wu Jue's way out is either to be given away, or the only way out is to end the world of mortals.
It is extremely appropriate to divorce a concubine for the reason of "breaking away from the world of mortals". For Wu Jue, he will not have to bear the worldly blow after divorce. After all, this is a voluntary monkhood. And for Li Tai, Ganye Temple is indeed a
A good place to place Wu Jue...
"Ganye Temple should have a back-up plan planned by Western religions."
"Sending Wu Jue to Ganye Temple can get rid of this trouble, and there will be no gap between him and his Western students."
When it comes to enmity with Western religions, Bai Gui is certainly not afraid.
But if it's not necessary, don't make too many enemies.
Even though Wu Jue was beautiful, he had seen too many beautiful ordinary women. Wu Jue's beauty could not be compared with that of Princess Jade Face, Fairy Guanghan, Princess Iron Fan and other fairies.
"Good words from the Taoist."
Li Tai agreed.
This was Bai Gui's suggestion. Even if he didn't agree, he had to agree.
"I would like to go to Ganye Temple."
Wu Jue cried and said delicately.
She is a young woman who has not yet experienced the love between men and women, so she has to go to Ganye Temple to become a nun. It is impossible to say that she is not resentful or disappointed. But compared with other ways, becoming a nun in Ganye Temple is also acceptable.
within the range.
The next day.
Wu Jue was sent to Ganye Temple.
And on the third day.
Because Bai Gui was in Chang'an, he was invited to a banquet in the Linde Hall of the imperial palace.
When you are full of wine and food.
Li Shimin, who was at the top, suddenly smiled and said: "My dear friends, I see that you are all in good looks. I wonder what your nicknames are? Just to make the princes at home and abroad smile."
Longzhangfengzi means having the literary talent of a dragon and the appearance of a phoenix.
The words come from the "Shishuo Xinyu" written by Liu Yiqing of the Southern Song Dynasty: "Kang is seven feet and eight inches long, has a majestic appearance, an earthy and wooden body, without any decoration, but has the grace of a dragon and a natural nature."
Dragon, Zhang, and Phoenix are used by ordinary people and are not arrogant.
The civil and military officials did not take it seriously and twisted their beards to make a smile.
They and Li Shimin, the immediate emperor, could be considered good friends if it weren't for the difference between emperor and minister. In the past, before Li Shimin ascended the throne, they, the old ministers and generals of the Prince of Qin's Palace, also had banquets, making some ridiculous and stupid remarks.
Said.
At this moment, Li Shimin asked them to say their nicknames, which only enhanced the atmosphere of the banquet, the friendship between them as kings and ministers, and eliminated the barriers.
Bai Gui stopped holding the wine cup, looked around, and then drank the water and wine in the cup as if no one else was watching.
The Western Church's plan came earlier than he did.
Wu Jue, the concubine of Wei King Li Tai, became a nun, which caused a big stir in Chang'an. At the same time, rumors about Yuan Tiangang's fortune-telling of Wu Jue by bone weighing are also spreading.
Wu Jue is a true disciple of the Buddha, so there must be someone to stop the disaster for Wu Jue.
Firstly, it eliminates Li Shimin's wariness, secondly, the hidden dragon is not used, and the other fake "female warrior king rules the world" can be used as a stepping stone for Wu Zetian and a pioneer for the king.
Each of the civil and military ministers looked shy and told them their former nicknames.
Absurd names such as "Er Gouzi", "Big Gouzi" and "Er Fool" all popped up. Even though most of them were from aristocratic families who had been in the family for generations, they had the opportunity to make a living by taking the egregious names, so there were no exceptions.
, all have an unpleasant nickname.
"My birth name is Wu Niangzi."
The unsuspecting Li Junxian was surrounded by people. He stepped forward and hesitated, saying sheepishly: Boys are preferred over girls, and giving a female name is also a cheap name.
"What kind of woman is so brave?"
Li Shimin heard too many baby names and subconsciously said it smoothly.
But after he finished speaking, his expression couldn't help but change.
Yesterday, he summoned Yuan Tiangang into the palace to inquire about the recent rumors circulating in Chang'an. Like Li Tai, he still did not believe that a woman could become emperor, and thought there must be something fishy about this matter.
Coinciding with a vision coming from the sky, the Taibai Star shines brightly.
Yuan Tiangang and his disciple Li Chunfeng then proclaimed: "When Taibai is prosperous, the heroine will prosper. From now on, the female warrior king will dominate the world."
After Li Shimin heard this, he felt that Wu Jue was the one who "pioneered for the king". The other person should be in the dark, and his surname was not Wu, so his given name, nickname, or nickname could all be possible.
He has heard of all the names and numbers, but it is difficult to find someone who fits the two characters of "female martial artist".
Therefore, he asked the ministers to tell their baby names in order to identify who was the "female warrior".
"Li Junxian was granted the title of Duke of Wulian County by me. He was also responsible for guarding the Xuanwu Gate and served as General Zuowuwei... At this time, his nickname was Wu Niangzi."
Li Shimin narrowed his eyes, murderous intent raging in his heart.
It's easy to explain if he meets one of them, but Li Junxian meets so many. Even if he is not the heroine of Wu Tianxia, he must kill him.
During the banquet, Li Shimin's pause was just a trivial matter and no one cared about it.
But as Bai Gui, who was familiar with the trend of history, he couldn't help but pay attention.
In this matter, it seemed that Li Junxian was wrongly accused, but in fact, it was inevitable. Li Junxian was a chess piece hidden by Buddhism to prevent Wu Zetian from disaster.
For ordinary people, a few years or decades are considered a long time.
But the layout of the gods and gods, in a blink of a century, in a blink of a millennium, the chess pieces fell, and in the eyes of mortals, there was no trace at all, everything was taken for granted and logical.
In other words, the fairy dropped two chess pieces, and these two chess pieces spanned a hundred years. And the lifespan of mortals is no longer than the word "ancient and rare". A hundred years is really too long, and it is so long that they can't be traced.
soon.
Then he heard a voice in his ears.
The Yang God left his body and came to the clouds.
"I have seen Master Guanyin." Bai Guiyang God gathered and formed, and the true God showed signs. He performed a Taoist salute to Guanyin Bodhisattva sitting on the lotus platform on the clouds, and then stood quietly on one side.
The reason why he was willing to go to the palace for the banquet this time was because he had some speculation about today's events.
He saw through Buddhism's plan, but did not reveal it. Instead, he regarded it as ignorance. In this way, Buddhism wanted to accept his kindness.
"Going west to obtain Buddhist scriptures is the general trend for Buddhism to prosper in the future. Emperor Li Shimin of Li Tang Dynasty was too old to bear such a heavy burden. Therefore, I, Buddha Tathagata, ordered Lushena Buddha to send down a ray of Buddha's light and give it to the daughter of the Wu family, so that she could
I teach Buddhists..."
Guanyin Bodhisattva held the jade purification bottle in one hand and explained.
Although Bai Gui has not reached the level of Golden Immortal at this moment, he is still a disciple of the Supreme Emperor, and his status is extraordinary. Bai Gui is also qualified to know about some important events. He is considered a fellow disciple.
This comrade is not a comrade who shares the same goals, but a comrade who is also an immortal.
Besides..., there is no need to hide this matter.
The plan of traveling westward to obtain Buddhist scriptures and moving Western religion eastward could not tolerate an emperor who was not a direct descendant of Buddhism. He must be a confidant of Western Buddhism. As a disciple of Buddhism, Wu Jue was a confidant of Western Buddhism.
"I understand."
Valley
Bai Gui was calm and composed.
Lusena, the abbreviation of "Vairocana" in Sanskrit, means "brightness shines all over" and "everywhere". Buddhism believes that the Buddha has three bodies, incarnation, sambhogakaya and dharma body. Lusena Buddha is the sambhogakaya.
Buddha can also mean "pure and perfect", illuminating the Dharma Realm with its unobstructed light.
Wu Zhao named himself "Zhao". The meaning of the word "Zhao" is "the sun and the moon are in the sky", which is similar to the meaning of Lushena Buddha.
"I teach you that there is a lotus seed in the eight treasures merit pool, which contains the eight treasures. Taoist friends can practice the golden elixir method and exhale the energy of these eight treasures, and prove that there is no leakage in the body."
Seeing that Bai Gui seemed puzzled, Guanyin explained: "The Pure Land of the Buddha has an Eight Treasures Pool of Merit and Virtue, filled with eight kinds of water. The eight kinds of water are the water with the eight extraordinary merits. The eight extraordinary waters are pure and cold.
, sweet, light and soft, moist, peaceful, relieves hunger and thirst, and nourishes the roots.”
"There is a lotus in the pond, a golden lotus of merit..."
Guanyin Bodhisattva turned his palm, and a golden lotus seed appeared out of thin air in his white jade palm.
This is the sealing fee for Bai Gui's trip.
A lotus seed from the Golden Lotus of Merit in the Eight Treasures Merit Pool.
Worth a fortune.
If it were anyone else, the Western sect would never do something like this. Whoever dares to explain the Western sect's plan has a cause and effect with the Western sect.
If the plan is not revealed, it will be regarded as Western teachings.
For example, if the nobles' children ride horses in the countryside and do not trample the fields, then the people who farm the fields should in turn thank these nobles' children for not trampling on the fields.
Although Westerners are not ordinary people, their principles are generally similar.
If Bai Gui was just an ordinary cultivator and dared to trample on his "acres", the weak and bullied people would immediately turn into "extremely evil" and unruly people, making him unable to bear the consequences.
At this moment, Guanyin refers to Bai Gui not as an inspector, but as Taoist friend Bai, which is also evident. In the eyes of Guanyin and others, Bai Gui's identity has transcended the official position of inspection.
Accept it, and the Western Church will feel at ease.
Bai Gui took the golden lotus seeds. He didn't want to make enemies with the Western religion, so he nodded and said: "This Eight Treasures Qi is exactly what a poor Taoist needs. I thank Master Guanyin."
"Fellow Daoist Bai, there is no need to say thank you. The one who gave you the lotus seeds is the Tathagata, not a poor monk."
Guanyin smiled and said, "A few days ago, the Zhenyuan Immortal of Wuzhuang Temple got a brief note from Yuanshi Tianzun and invited him to attend the Miluo Palace to listen to the Hunyuan Tao Fruit. The poor monk wanted to go with him, but I don't know if my friend can go with him.
"
Among the immortals, there are the Three Purities and Four Emperors, among which the Three Purities are Taishang Laojun, Yuanshi Tianzun, and Lingbao Tianzun.
"The Great Immortal Zhenyuan has always been hospitable to guests. If you fellow Taoist go there, you will be treated well."
She added one more sentence.
One Qi transforms the three pure beings, and the relationship between the three pure beings is naturally unusual. Bai Gui is the Supreme Disciple, and Yuanshi Tianzun invited Zhen Yuanzi to the Miluo Palace to listen to the Hunyuan Dao Fruit. Due to emotion and reason, Zhen Yuanzi could not
Don't entertain this Taishang's disciple. (In the original work of Journey to the West, Yuanshi Tianzun is the eldest, but to adopt a common saying, the three Qings are brothers, the Taishang is the eldest, Yuanshi is the second, and Lingbao is the third.)
Although Guanyin Bodhisattva never explained how Zhen Yuanzi entertained him, Bai Gui also knew that the most worthy treasure of Zhen Yuanzi's Wuzhuang Temple was the famous ginseng fruit.
As for whether Zhen Yuanzi would use ginseng fruit to treat his junior, although 99% of the time he would, it is still unknown, so Guanyin did not say anything.
"After I became a disciple of Guan Yinzi, I was not given a magic weapon or any other treasure to protect myself. Even the sermons were preached by my master Taishang Laojun himself..."
"But just being the master and disciple is enough for me to collect many treasures. There is no need to give anything else."
Bai Gui secretly smacked his tongue.
The fact that he has not given any magic weapon or treasure does not mean that Guan Yinzi is mean. At first, he was a little doubtful, but now he has tasted the benefits, and he understands that his identity alone is enough to protect himself. As for the treasure,
Someone else will send the magic weapon...
Bai Gui only used the magic whip three times last time. After using it, Taishang Laojun took the magic whip back again.
"I have nothing to do these days. I would like to go with the Bodhisattva."
Bai Gui replied.
go!
why are you not going!
If you can gather Yuanzi's wool in Wuzhuang Guanzhen, why not go there?
Although the ripe ginseng fruit is not as good as the first-class purple-striped flat peach, which ripens once in nine thousand years, a person who eats it will live as long as the world and the sun and the moon. But the ginseng fruit is better than the second- and third-class flat peaches.
There are so many that if you just smell it, you can live 360 years. If you eat one, you can live 47,000 years.
Of course, the flat peach has the same lifespan as the heaven and the earth, and the sun and the moon have the same age, which does not mean eternal life. The world of Journey to the West also has a lifespan. In an era of 129,600 years, the world will be reshaped.
Please eat ginseng fruit. It is just to entertain guests, not to mention adding cause and effect.
Furthermore, he also wanted to listen to Yuanshi Tianzun's sermon.
After that, Bai Guiyang God returned to the Linde Hall and addressed Li Shimin, "I am invited by the gods to go to the blessed land for a banquet."
Li Shimin felt sour in his heart and personally escorted Bai Gui out of the Linde Hall.
…
Half an hour later.
Bai Gui and Guanyin Bodhisattva rushed to Wuzhuang Temple in a hurry.
Not long after, we saw a fairyland.
The Taoist temple is built on a high wall, with white cranes floating in the clouds and monkeys offering fruits. In front of the temple, there are lush trees, lonely pine slopes, and quiet bamboo forests. There is a half-acre square pond in front of the door with clear water. Looking up, you can see the mountains.
A palace built in the middle of nowhere, with towers standing between the clouds and the sky, and red clouds hanging on the side of the palace steps.
The two of them went down to the clouds and saw a stone tablet about ten feet high on the left side of the mountain gate. On the stone tablet there were big characters, "Wanshou Mountain is a blessed place, Wuzhuang is a cave to the sky."
Another peach charm was posted at the Taoist gate, which read: "The Immortal House of Immortality, the Taoist House of Longevity and Heaven."
There is no need to knock on the door. Guanyin Bodhisattva and his two men knocked on the door.
After the two of them got a foothold, the green door of the Taoist temple suddenly opened, and a child walked out. He said with a Taoist greeting: "I have seen two immortals. Master has been waiting in the temple for a long time, and he also invited the two immortals to enter the temple."
"The name of the trail is Qingfeng."
When leaving, Qingfeng introduced the scenery and objects in Wuzhuang Temple and the disciples in the temple, "I am already one thousand three hundred and twenty years old. Mingyue is younger than me and is also one thousand two hundred years old. Guan
There are also forty-eight senior brothers inside, all of whom have the Tao of Quanzhen and have attained the rank of immortal..."
"This time I heard Yuanshi Tianzun's sermon, and my master also plans to take forty-eight senior brothers with him to listen to the sermon."
Bai Gui was secretly surprised by Wuzhuangguan's strength.
If it weren't for Sun Wukong and others taking advantage of the absence of the Great Immortal Zhenyuan and his disciples, these forty-eight disciples with the power of earthly immortals and heavenly immortals would have kept Sun Wukong from doing any tricks and not daring to make mistakes.
Think about it, with a treasure like Wanshouhuandan (ginseng fruit) in hand, it would be more than a little easier for disciples of Wuzhuang Temple to practice Taoism than disciples from other places.
Enter the view.
Bai Gui and Guanyin Bodhisattva were sitting on both sides. Sitting above them was Zhen Yuanzi. He was dressed as a middle-aged Taoist with a gentle look and a long beard. "Bodhisattva and Taoist friend Bai came to Wuzhuang Temple. It is a blessing for the poor Taoist. The breeze
, Mingyue, go and beat two fruits for the Bodhisattva and fellow Taoist Bai to eat."
Treasures like ginseng fruit cannot be eaten by ordinary people, and those who can eat them are not ordinary people.
From time to time, two fruits were placed in the alchemy plate.
The fruit is like a child playing.
"Fellow Daoist Bai, don't panic."
Zhen Yuanzi smiled and said: "I and other Taoists have built the foundation for a hundred days, and the body has returned to the mysterious elixir, which is the same as a newborn baby. Taoist friend Jindan Dao, the golden elixir is even more similar to this, take this
The fruit also has the effect of enlightening the golden elixir. In the past, Taoist friend Chunyang came to my village and after taking the fruit, his Taoism improved much more than ordinary people..."
Lu Dongbin, the son of Chunyang, is a representative figure of inner alchemy, that is, the golden elixir avenue.
When Bai Gui heard this, he guessed that Lu Dongbin should not have traveled to the Westward World. After all, although Lu Zu became a Taoist in the Tang Dynasty, he was in the middle and late Tang Dynasty, not the early Tang Dynasty. Zhen Yuanzi was also a big man with a cultivation level of Golden Immortal or above, many people in one.
, all heavens exist.
However, he thought for a moment before swallowing the ginseng fruit in his mouth.
But he did not devour it directly like a pig-gang hyena. Instead, he lightly licked the peel with his teeth and used the jade liquid to send the ginseng juice to the whole body, spreading to the limbs and bones. Gradually, the blood of the Governor Vessel started from the back and passed through the jade pillow.
Shangtian, Mingtang, Magpie Bridge, Chonglou, and finally reaches Huangting.
This is the realization of the Taoism contained in the elixir of Wanshou Cao, which is in harmony with the golden elixir.
After swallowing half of the Cao Huan Dan, Bai Gui gradually felt that his current body was glowing like electricity, and his mouth was overflowing with jade liquid, as if he had returned to his child's body. His energy was sufficient, his body was light, his eyes were bright and his ears were clear, and he was immune to all diseases.
He spit out the core and put it back into the elixir plate.
"The Qi orifices are gradually full, which will save me at least three hundred years of hard work."
"Thank you so much, fellow Taoist Zhenyuan."
He saluted.
Although his cultivation level is not as good as that of Zhen Yuanzi, they have different training backgrounds and are both friends of the Dao. It is not too much to call him a Taoist friend. If we talk about his brothers in the same discipline, they should also be considered to be Golden Immortals.
Calling himself a junior has ruined the reputation of Master Guan Yinzi's lineage.
Guanyin Bodhisattva also took a ginseng fruit, but she only tasted it and did not reveal any magical effects.
The higher the cultivation level of a person, the less effective the ginseng fruit and other elixirs will be.
"You're welcome, Fellow Daoist Bai."
Zhen Yuanzi nodded and got down to business: "In three days, we will go to Yuqing Tianmiluo Palace to listen to the sermon. In these three days, Taoist Bai will walk around Wuzhuang Temple..."
After explaining Bai Gui's arrangements, he said again: "Bodhisattva, how do you and I discuss the Tao?"
