Su Jiu stopped moving forward. Judging from the loudness of the sound, the source of the sound in front of her was probably only three or four miles away from her. ↗,
The reason that made Su Jiu stop was not that there was a sound coming from the underworld, but that the content of the sound was howling.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"..."
There were also bursts of roaring sounds that sounded like some monsters.
"This sounds like the sound of the terrain changing! It also sounds like the sound of a mountain collapsing!" Su Jiu was slightly startled. When this kind of sound came, Su Jiu immediately judged it.
Are there actually mountains in the underworld?
Or is it that the changes in the mountains in the underworld are so obvious?
Could it be an earthquake? That’s not right! Are there earthquakes in the underworld? Even if there are, the scope of the earthquake shouldn’t be so small?
Is there someone fighting?
An idea suddenly popped into Su Jiu's mind.
"Just go up and take a look and you will know!" Su Jiu's heart moved and an idea suddenly came to her mind.
This gray mist has the effect of blocking spiritual consciousness. In this gray mist, my spiritual consciousness can only detect a distance of thirty to forty meters, which is nearly half shorter than usual.
The sound came from a distance of three or four miles. As long as he was careful, he would not be discovered.
Su Jiu knew very well how capable the monk Feng Shui Master was! It was obviously not a small person who caused such a loud noise.
The reason why I dare to have such bold ideas is because I can leave the underworld at any time.
There is an ancient secret technique on the golden compass in my mind. I have mentioned before that as long as I use the secret technique, I can return to the original road at any time and return to the Jiang family's old residence and villa.
Just do it if you think of it.
After making a decision in her heart, Su Jiu began to approach slowly.
Gray fog is the best cover.
For Su Jiu, the distance of three or four miles was not very far.
Su Jiu began to slowly approach the place where the sound came from.
In the gray mist, the distance that Su Jiu could see was only more than ten meters away. He walked step by step. Just as he was about to see what the rumbling sound was, something suddenly changed in front of his eyes.
This scene stunned Su Jiu.
The black mist is gone!
The sight in front of me was wide. Although the sky was still gray, the gray mist in the air was gone.
"Uh! This is..."
Su Jiu looked at the scene in front of her in surprise. The imagined fight between strong men did not appear.
Instead, the scene that appeared in front of him was an open plain with mountain peaks gradually rising up.
Yes, the mountains are rising slowly.
Just like a tall building rising from the flat ground, and like time accelerating, the changes that have occurred in the mountains for millions of years were formed in this short moment.
Su Jiu was stunned.
He didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
This underworld actually encounters such a scene. What is going on?
Su Jiu was stunned for a moment, looking at the slowly rising mountains in a daze. The scene in front of him was really too shocking. Even watching a science fiction movie was not so shocking.
Su Jiu looked at it stupidly, and suddenly something clicked in her mind. She seemed to have thought of something, and she was surprised and exclaimed.
"The dragon raises its head?"
Su Jiu's whole expression changed, and his face was filled with disbelief. It was as if he had seen a ghost! No! It should be said that it was as if a ghost had seen Su Jiu.
Terror, doubt, fear!
What does it mean when the dragon raises its head? Speaking of this, there is actually another allusion. There is such a legend among the people about the allusion of the dragon raising its head.
The Jade Emperor is in the Heavenly Palace and has to go to court every day. After going to court, he takes care of not only the affairs of heaven, but also the affairs of the world, the ghost affairs of the underworld, and the good deeds of the Western Buddhist country! People say that the Jade Emperor
Be lenient. Don’t be too tired or bored.
It is said that during the Tang Dynasty, for several days in a row, the Jade Emperor discovered that a woman actually became the emperor in the lower world. This woman was Wu Zetian. Look at her name. She did not take the Jade Emperor seriously. Not only that, Wu Zetian also raised
Is it okay for a few faces to be in the palace, eating, drinking, having fun, and being wanton and happy all day long? If one day, the female immortals in the upper world also imitate Wu Zetian, why don't they also overthrow the throne of the Jade Emperor?
flipped?
According to legend, when Wu Zetian was in power, she somehow angered the Jade Emperor. In fact, this was how she angered the Jade Emperor. So God became furious and ordered Taibai Jinxing to tell the Dragon King of the Four Seas not to rain on earth for three years as punishment.
The Jade Emperor is not fair sometimes. Since it is Wu Zetian who has annoyed you, just talk to Wu Zetian. You shorten her life, make her sick, remove her from office, and take her life. Why not? Why?
Do you want to have trouble with everyone in the world? It seems that the Jade Emperor also bullies the weak and fears the strong, or else he was afraid of his wife when he was in mortal form, so he did not dare to punish Wu Zetian directly.
The Jade Emperor did not allow rainfall, which caused great hardship to the common people.
The green crops that used to be all over the mountains and fields withered, and the farmers knelt on the land and cried and howled; the rivers that used to be flowing and clear dried up, and the fishermen sat on the edge of the rivers and sighed. Seeing that people's livelihood was cut off, people cried dryly.
He shed tears and his voice became hoarse from crying, but the Jade Emperor remained indifferent.
The rain gods listened to the people's cries, quietly gathered together, considered and studied, and held more than a dozen committee meetings and enlarged meetings, but no one dared to disobey the Jade Emperor's will.
The meeting still came to nothing.
But, in fact, things did not continue like this. On this day, a cloud suddenly floated from a distance. It was white cloud at first, and then turned into a dark cloud. After a while, the dark cloud filled the entire sky. A cool breeze started blowing.
, the raindrops fell, and then, there was a heavy downpour.
After a long drought, sweet rain came, and people were happy. Everyone knelt on the ground and thanked the sky. It turned out that people didn't know that this was the rain from the Jade Dragon in charge of the Tianhe River. People offered incense, kowtowed, and kept chanting,
Thank you to the God of Wind and Rain Master and the Jade Emperor!
In fact, the common people are very familiar with this Jade Dragon. Last time, it was to save the suffering of the people by going through the rain privately, and was beaten by the Jade Emperor to the mortal world to suffer. The Jade Dragon was later enlightened by Guanshiyin and turned into a white horse, following
Tang Monk went to the West to obtain scriptures. He suffered many hardships and hardships along the way, and finally obtained the true scriptures. Because he had performed well in obtaining the scriptures, the Jade Emperor recalled him to heaven and resumed his original position as the ruler of the Tianhe River.
These days, Yulong heard people's miserable cries and felt very uneasy. He once traveled through mountains and rivers in the world, followed Monk Tang to learn Buddhist scriptures from the West, and witnessed the hardship of people's survival, so he drank enough regardless of the danger of being knocked down to the mortal world again.
The water of the Tianhe River ran out of the Nantian Gate, opened its huge mouth and sprayed rain.
When the Jade Emperor learned that Jade Dragon had secretly rained rain again, he was furious and immediately ordered the heavenly soldiers and generals to arrest him. He also ordered Taibai Jinxing to use a whisk to turn him into a towering mountain, press him under the mountain to suffer, and set up a stone tablet on the mountain.
, the stele is engraved with: The Jade Dragon's rainfall violates the rules of heaven, and it will be punished by the human world for eternity. If you want to return to the Lingxiao Palace, you will have to wait until the golden beans bloom.
People saw a mountain suddenly appeared in the wilderness, and there were stone inscriptions on the mountain. Then they realized that the Jade Dragon secretly rained rain again for the sake of the people's survival, which offended the Jade Emperor.
People were moved by the Jade Dragon, so they placed an incense table in front of the mountain that suppressed him, and worshiped it day and night. In order to save the Jade Dragon and repay the Jade Dragon for saving his life, and in the hope that the Jade Dragon would ascend to the sky again and rain would fall again, the common people looked for the blooming golden beans everywhere.
But they searched all over the world and could not find it. So people knelt in front of the Jade Dragon Mountain and said, "Jade Dragon, where are the golden beans that bloom? Can you tell us?"
Jade Dragon said: "Where in the world can there be golden beans with flowers? Not even in the Heavenly Palace! I'm afraid I won't have the time to return to Heaven!"
But people did not give up and continued to look for the blooming golden beans. On the first day of February of the next year, it happened to be a market on the street. An old woman was carrying a bag of grain to sell. Because it was not tied properly, the mouth of the bag came loose and the golden beans were lost.
Yellow corn seeds were scattered all over the ground.
When people saw this scene, their hearts lit up: "Isn't this bag of grain seeds just like golden beans?"
Won't it bloom if you stir-fry it?" So everyone agreed that everyone would fry the corn beans.
On February 2nd, every household put the fried corn-cured bean curds in a dustpan and offered them in the courtyard, and some even brought them to the Jade Dragon. The golden bean curd flowers everywhere made the white clouds stand out brilliantly.
Seeing that people treated him so sincerely, Yulong couldn't bear it anymore and shouted loudly: "Taibai Jinxing! You confused old man, listen, the golden beans have bloomed, why don't you let me out quickly!"
The Taibai Jinxing people were so dazzled that they couldn't tell whether the golden beans were blooming or the corn flowers were blooming, so they collected the whisks in one move. The mountain that suppressed the Jade Dragon also rose into the sky.
As the whisks rose, the Jade Dragon roared loudly, leaped above the clouds, and with all its strength, faced the dry and smoking earth, and sprayed rain again. In the blink of an eye, the sky and the earth were completely transformed.
The sky is white, the rain has filled the ditches and rivers, and the wilderness has regained its vitality.
Besides, the Jade Emperor was singing and dancing in the Lingxiao Palace, eating flat peaches, drinking royal wine, and admiring the graceful dancing of the fairies! At this time, the meritorious officials on duty came to report that the Jade Dragon was raining again against the order.
The Jade Emperor immediately blamed Taibai Jinxing, and Taibai Jinxing realized that he had done something wrong, but he said perfunctorily: "Jade Emperor! Didn't you say that you would release the Jade Dragon when the golden beans bloom? This morning I saw the golden beans in the lower world.
After opening it, I collected the whisk!"
The Jade Emperor was so angry that he trembled all over: "Is that the golden bean flower? Open your eyes and look, those golden things everywhere are the golden bean flowers!"
Taibai Jinxing saw that the Jade Emperor was really angry, so he stood there without saying a word. It was not until the Jade Emperor's anger subsided that he tried to say: "Jade Emperor! I thought... the incense in the sky depends entirely on the common people.
If they all starve to death, what will we do in the future?"
The Jade Emperor thought for a while, but had no choice but to say: "What you said makes sense, so let's go to the next level, recruit Jade Dragon back, and continue to manage Tianhe!"
Although the Jade Dragon has returned to heaven, people have formed a habit. Every February 2nd, people get up early to fry rice balls and chant: "On February 2nd, the dragon raises its head. The big warehouse is full and the small warehouse is flowing."
This is a folk allusion and legend. Of course, the point is not here, but... (To be continued.)
