People are among the Eight Immortals, starting from Painted Skin Ghost

Chapter 337 Zhang Guolaoyu transforms into an immortal and pays homage to the Jade Emperor, the seventh-level righteous god! 【Please subscribe】

His Majesty sent him to find Zhenren Tongxuan, but there was also a time limit.

Pei Hu and his party left Chang'an and traveled non-stop all the way. They rushed here day and night, spending five days in total.

Seeing this real mountain climbing, the mountain is steep and steep, there are many forests, and the peaks are like a cluster.

He thought that if he wanted to find Zhenren Tongxuan, it would be impossible without a few days of effort.

If we rush to Chang'an by then, we will inevitably be in a hurry.

Maybe the deadline agreed with His Majesty will be exceeded.

Thinking of this, Pei Mo had an idea, raised his head to look at the green mountains, and shouted in a deep voice:

"Master Tongxuan, young general Pei Hu, under the orders of His Majesty, are here to ask Master Tongxuan to return to the capital to save the Queen Mother!"

"I hope that the real person will be merciful and follow me."

The words fell.

The soldiers behind him also knelt down and prostrated:

"I hope the real person will have mercy!"

When the local magistrate and others saw this, they were stunned for a moment. When they recovered, they knelt down and shouted loudly:

"I hope the real person will have mercy!"

"I hope the real person will have mercy!"

"..."

Everyone shouted in unison, and the sound suddenly spread to all directions, frightening the birds in the forest and scattering.

……

……

Dengzhen Mountain, inside a cave.

As soon as Zhang Guolao calmed down, he heard shouts at the foot of the mountain, which seemed to be calling him.

He listened carefully and found out the whole story.

"It turns out that that group of people came to ask the Taoist priest to come to Beijing and treat the Queen Mother's illness."

"Rong Laodao will do some calculations first..."

Zhang Guolao stretched out his palm, pinched his fingers a few times, and secretly used the Supreme Divination Technique. In just a moment, he understood everything.

He opened his eyes and said in shock:

"The Queen Mother is about to die. She has less than a year left to live."

If you allow yourself to go and heal her, isn't it just to extend your life?

"Even if the old Taoist has the golden elixir and elixir, he cannot act against heaven..."

Zhang Guolao let out a long sigh.

I had already decided in my heart to ignore it.

Therefore, he stopped listening and continued to meditate and practice.

But this time he closed his eyes, he was stunned and couldn't calm down for a while.

The more he wanted to ignore the Queen Mother's affairs, the more depressed he became.

Zhang Guolao felt strange.

After all, he is also a Taoist master with five internal organs and one level, and he has never encountered such a situation.

"Could it be that what Senior Brother Han meant when he said that the old way still has a calamity to overcome?"

Suddenly, Zhang Guolao's mind moved and he suddenly figured it out.

Once this thought came together, I couldn't let it go.

Knowing in his heart that he was doomed to disaster, Zhang Guolao could not avoid it.

But you must not go to Chang'an.

The Queen Mother is destined to be like this, and no one can save her.

Once you go to the capital, it will be difficult to escape.

When the time comes, the opportunity to become an immortal will have to be delayed a lot.

Now I can only think of another way.

But at the foot of the mountain, the shouting was really disturbing.

Zhang Guolao couldn't stand it anymore, so he suddenly opened his eyes and stood up:

"Well, if you want to survive this disaster, it's better to just follow your heart..."

After muttering to himself, Zhang Guolao calmly took out a piece of paper donkey from his sleeve.

He blew a breath and waved his hand. The stone door of the cave opened suddenly, and a donkey came to life.

At that moment, Zhang Guolao walked out of the cave, rode backwards on the white donkey, and headed towards the foot of the mountain.

"Let's go."

Before leaving, Zhang Guolao hooked his hand, and a palm-sized white bat at the entrance of the cave flickered its wings, turned into an afterimage, and flew over to stand on his shoulder.

As the black eyes looked around, they seemed to swallow up the entire Denzhen Mountain.

It is true that thanks to Zhang Guolao's power, the white bat's strength has now greatly increased, and its strength is almost as strong as the half-step real person.

……

……

Another compartment.

Pei Hu and others were still kneeling and shouting. The county magistrate and others were no better than Lian Jiazi, who was born in the military. Their voices were hoarse and almost smoking, but there was no movement on the mountain.

I want to tell General Pei to forget it, but maybe the master Tongxuan has left.

But when I saw that he was still upright, with a determined look on his face, he shouted loudly, and had no choice but to swallow the words that came to his mouth.

"I still hope that the real person will have mercy!"

The county magistrate and others were weak and shouted intermittently.

I really can't resist it anymore.

At this moment, the white clouds in the sky dispersed, revealing the original clear blue sky.

Immediately, a gust of mountain wind came and almost blew people away.

Everyone looked up and saw an old Taoist riding a white donkey backwards on a cloud.

In just one breath, we reached the foot of the mountain.

"Pei, I'd like to pay my respects to Master Tongxuan!"

Looking at the old man riding a white donkey backwards in front of him, Pei Mo immediately bowed and bowed.

Although he did not recognize Zhenren Tongxuan, he also knew that Zhenren Tongxuan was a gray-haired old Taoist who loved to ride donkeys backwards and hold fishing drums in his arms.

at the same time.

Behind Pei Me, a group of soldiers, county magistrates and others also quickly leaned down and saluted him.

"No need to be polite."

Zhang Guolao raised his hand and signaled.

"Zhenzhen, the Queen Mother is in danger now. The Holy One has issued a decree and sent the general to ask Zhenren to return to the capital to save the Queen Mother."

Seeing Zhang Guolao's face, Pei Mo felt a little less worried, but he was afraid that he would not go, so he had to persuade him.

Unexpectedly, after Zhang Guolao heard this, he sighed bitterly and said sadly:

"Harmful!"

"General Pei doesn't know something. The old master's work went astray a few days ago, and he accidentally damaged his Dantian. I'm afraid he will die soon!"

"what?!"

Pei Mo's expression changed and he showed an incredible look:

"Is there such a thing?!"

After a while, he changed his mind and said hurriedly:

"The real person collects Qi, eats Xia, and refines elixirs to nourish his nature. How can his performance go astray and his life is not long? It would be better for the real person not to joke with the general..."

What Master Tongxuan said frightened Pei Me.

He was eager to send Master Tongxuan back to Beijing so that he could communicate with His Majesty.

But Master Tongxuan said that his life was in danger. Is this too ridiculous?

Pei Me could only take it as an excuse from Master Tongxuan.

Not really convinced.

After all, Pei Moke learned from some gossip that the old Taoist in front of him was the junior disciple of the former Heavenly Master Xiao Guangji of the Tang Dynasty!

How could he die for no reason?

"We monks, if we want to become immortals, we have to avoid three disasters and five declines. The old Taoist is inherently stupid and stupid. Even if we have a good teacher, rotten wood cannot be carved. What can we do?"

Zhang Guolao sighed heavily, his eyes already a bit gray.

"This……"

Pei Mei was stunned.

Hearing what Master Tongxuan said, he seemed to think it made sense.

But it is difficult to violate the imperial edict.

Pei Me was stunned for a moment, then coaxed Zhang Guolao:

"Master, there are several masters like Tongyin in Chang'an. We might as well get to Chang'an first."

"In case the masters Tongyin and others can come up with a good recipe to save them, the masters will definitely be able to refine Qi to solidify their essence and practice Taoism."

Pei Me's duty was only to bring Zhang Guolao back to Chang'an.

As for whether he can treat the Queen Mother after arriving in Chang'an, it is none of his business.

Therefore, whether it was through deception or sweet talk, Pei Me would try his best to get Zhang Guolao to agree to go to Chang'an.

Pei Mo was resolute, Zhang Guolao wanted to get away with it, but he was afraid it wouldn't work.

In desperation, he had no choice but to follow:

"Just follow General Pei's wishes."

"The old Taoist knows that it is hard to disobey the emperor's order, so he will come with you."

"Thank you for your understanding!"

Pei Mo was overjoyed and moved, and thanked him hurriedly.

Pei Mo wanted to set off immediately, but when he looked back, he saw that his brothers had been working day and night, and their faces were already full of exhaustion.

Just now I shouted again, but I didn't have much energy left in my body.

The county magistrate on the side saw Pei Mei frowning and looked at these soldiers with the intention of taking care of them.

His mind changed and he became interested in making friends.

The Pei family has a big surname.

This General Pei became the Huben Guards Lieutenant General at a young age, and was obviously a popular figure in front of His Majesty.

This time, he successfully found Zhenren Tongxuan, and when he returned to Chang'an, he was bound to be praised by the Holy Spirit.

If you can put in a few nice words for him, your career may be further improved.

When he thought of this, he laughed naively and said:

"General Pei, you have worked hard to find the real person all the way here."

"Now, since the real person is willing to follow you to Beijing, you might as well rest here for one night before leaving."

Afraid that Pei Mo would not agree, he added:

"To be honest, I have already ordered people to prepare a banquet to welcome you all!"

Pei Mo is a member of the family, he is well-mannered and tactful in dealing with things.

He heard the county magistrate's flattery and did not refuse.

He said to Zhang Guolao:

"I hope that the real person will be considerate of the soldiers under the general's command and rest here for one night before leaving tomorrow morning."

"It doesn't matter."

"General Pei will do whatever he wants." Zhang Guolao smiled and didn't care.

He was already planning how to escape on the way to Chang'an.

Staying one more night will give you more time to think.

"Thank you, Masato."

Pei Mo bowed his hands and thanked him.

He called his men and asked the county magistrate to lead the way back to the city.

……

……

Silent all night.

Early the next morning, the county magistrate, county magistrate and other people politely sent Pei Hu and others out of the city.

After resting in this county for a night, Pei Mo was treated comfortably by the county magistrate, and he naturally remembered this person.

Kuang Zhongye was born in Fuzhou.

Jinshi in the seventh year of Kaiyuan.

He once served as an official in Beijing, but was demoted to this place because he criticized the powerful and was hated by others.

According to what Pei Mo thought, he rushed from Chang'an to Dengzhen Mountain and spent five days.

Now, it should be faster to go back.

Maybe we can reach Chang'an in four and a half days.

However, it is counterproductive.

Previously, Zhang Guolao said that he was not going to die soon, but Pei Me only regarded the latter as a joke.

Who would have thought that he would actually do it for real!

On the first day with the mission, Zhang Guolao lost all his hair and even his teeth without warning.

The next day, his whole body was wrinkled and slumped, and his face was covered with weather, and he still had the childlike look he had before.

On the third day, when everyone arrived at the Wa Nu Temple, Zhang Guo was completely exhausted. He fell off the donkey and died with a whimper!

At this time, Pei Mo was frightened and quickly ordered his soldiers to station themselves at the Wa Nu Temple.

He himself carried Zhang Guolao's body, took it to the temple, and buried it.

"General, what should we do?"

"Unexpectedly, Master Tongxuan is really dead?"

At this time, a pair of men walked over and asked.

Pei met with a sad look on his face:

"Ugh……"

He shook his head helplessly and said:

"I don't know what to do about this matter?"    "Besides, it's still unclear whether the real person's death is true or false!"

"It seems we have to settle here today."

"Quickly order someone to go and clean up."

"Yes, General!"

The lieutenant replied.

After saying that, he retreated and directed the group of people to pick up some wood, otherwise it would be cold at night.

Zhang Guolao died suddenly and suddenly, which made Pei Mo unbelievable.

He felt uneasy, wondering whether Zhang Guolao had used magic to deceive him and others, or whether it was true, as he said, that due to a mistake in his performance, his Dantian was damaged and his life was in danger.

But now, with him lying on the ground lifeless like this, Pei Mo couldn't do anything.

He wandered around the temple and saw that the temple had a long table with statues of gods.

Then he knelt on the ground, burned incense and prayed for a while.

Pei Mo just asked Zhang Guolao to wake up quickly, even if he was really going to die, he would have to die in Chang'an.

Now, he died on the way to pick him up.

If Pei Hu returns to Beijing to deliver an order, the Holy Emperor will definitely feel that he is in a disadvantageous position and cannot be used.

He burned incense anxiously for a while. When he walked out of the temple, it was already dark outside. Fortunately, the soldiers had set up a bonfire and he didn't feel cold.

However, the sudden death of Master Tongxuan made everyone's eyes seem to be filled with dark clouds and they felt depressed.

Pei Hu and the soldiers ate dry food and took turns keeping watch.

Before resting, he glanced towards the temple, hoping that the previous prayer would be effective and Zhang Guolao could wake up.

However, it is counterproductive.

Zhang Guolao's body was lying on the ground so coldly. The frosty white moonlight shone on his body, showing how there was no life left.

Spent the whole night here.

At dawn the next day, after Pei Mo woke up, he took the lead in taking another look at Zhang Guolao.

However, when he came closer, his eyes suddenly lost color and he became completely stunned.

On the ground, Zhang Guolao's body had almost turned into bones, leaving only a cloak covering his body.

At this time, Pei Mo was completely desperate!

Who would have thought that Master Tongxuan was really dead!

This practice is too dangerous!

If you move, your body will die and your soul will disappear!

The morning sun is about to rise in the mountains, and the vast light and shadow come through the forest, like gold and orange falling, bringing warmth.

The soldiers gradually woke up one by one.

At this time, Pei Me walked outside the temple gate, looked at everyone in despair, and said in a solemn tone:

"The real person is dead. Let's carry his body to Beijing for business!"

"General..." the deputy general heard the words and said anxiously.

At present, the Queen Mother is seriously ill, and there are even rumors of death in the capital.

At this time, when they carried the body back, those who didn't know the inside story thought they were cursing the Queen Mother!

"The general knows what he's doing, so just do it."

Pei met.

Say it.

The lieutenant general remained silent and had no choice but to agree.

……

……

Three days later, Pei Hu and others returned to Chang'an.

A corpse was also brought.

Do not!

It's ashes!

Zhang Guolao's body had completely weathered into powder before they could carry them into the city.

Pei met alone and entered the palace to submit his decree to the Holy One.

He didn't dare to say that he had brought Zhang Guolao's ashes. Of course, if Emperor Tang asked, he would definitely have to give an explanation!

……

……

Changan.

royal palace.

When Emperor Tang heard Pei Hu's report, his jaw almost dropped and he was shocked and said:

"Then Master Tongxuan is really dead?"

"Isn't he a true Taoist, a junior fellow of the National Master?"

After coming back to his senses, Tang Huang's tone became serious and he asked again in a scolding voice:

"Pei Hui, I ask you, have you seen it clearly?"

Pei Me suddenly fell to his knees and said firmly:

"Your Majesty, I would like to inform you that I, together with dozens of soldiers, saw with my own eyes that Zhang Guolao fell under a donkey and died. His body stinked that night, and when he woke up the next day, he was reduced to a withered skeleton!"

"If I conceal it, I will die late!"

Seeing this, Emperor Tang believed it. Soon he slumped down on the dragon chair and murmured:

"Dead, actually dead..."

Pei Mo knelt on the ground, not daring to look at His Majesty.

He hoped that your majesty would no longer question him, so he originally wanted to raise his head and advise his majesty to ask Mr. Jian Zheng of Qin Tian Prison to perform a divination to verify whether Zhang Guolao's death was true or not?

But when he raised his head, he found that the Holy Spirit had already left.

Pei Mo felt sad for a long time and sighed helplessly.

I secretly thought that this time I went to summon Master Tongxuan to the capital, and I rushed back and forth. In the end, I failed to draw water from a bamboo basket, and I let the Holy One down for no reason and lost the Holy Heart.

In fact.

Whether Zhang Guolao is alive or dead is irrelevant.

What Emperor Tang cared about was whether Zhang Guolao could save the Queen Mother.

The result is obvious. Master Tongxuan died on the way and passed away suddenly. He could no longer enter the palace to save the Queen Mother.

Even if he is still alive, I'm afraid he won't be very willing.

Instead of going to all the trouble to bring him back from the dead, it would be better to show your filial piety at the queen mother's bedside.

As for Zhang Guolao's ashes, Pei Mo brought them to Chang'an, but they were of no use.

He couldn't just throw it away.

I can only ask someone to send it to the hands of Master Tongyin of Chunhe Immortal Mansion.

Master Tongyin was very surprised when he received the ashes of Master Tongxuan.

That Zhang Guolao was the younger brother of Dongxiao Guangji Celestial Master Han Xiangzi and a member of the Taishang lineage. How could he die so easily and suddenly?

But after thinking about it, he was relieved.

His Majesty wanted to ask Master Tongxuan to refine the elixir and order the elixir for the Queen Mother. Master Tongyin had also heard about it.

In his view, the Queen Mother's fate was over.

That Master Tongxuan, even if he is a disciple of Taishang lineage, would not dare to do such a heaven-defying act?

Therefore, I had no choice but to fake death to avoid this trouble!

At first, Master Tongyin was doubtful about the altar of ashes. He suspected that Zhang Guolao had found a corpse at random and Li Daitao was dead. Unexpectedly, he sensed that it was really Zhang Guolao's body!

At that moment, Master Tongyin was stunned, and he clicked his tongue and said:

"Fellow Daoist Zhang really fought hard. I wonder what kind of magic he used to kill himself?"

But one thing, Master Tongyin understood, Zhang Guolao was definitely not dead!

Unable to figure it out, Master Tongyin simply placed Zhang Guolao's ashes on the incense table of the Sanqing God statue enshrined in Chunhe Immortal Mansion.

About three days passed.

When Master Tongyin was meditating in the Immortal Mansion, he suddenly heard a crisp sound of cracking porcelain. Soon, the entire Immortal Mansion was surrounded by golden light and filled with purple energy.

He felt something in his heart and hurriedly came to the statue of Sanqing God. As expected, he saw Zhang Guolao standing in front of him safe and sound.

"Brother Taoist, please help me protect this dust."

Zhang Guo came back from the dead and smiled casually at Master Tongyin.

"Don't!"

"If you want to thank Fellow Daoist Zhang, you should thank General Pei Yu, who sent you your ashes intact."

Master Tongyin pushed his hand and said.

"The old Taoist understands in his heart." Zhang Guolao nodded slightly.

Although this Pei Mo was a bit tainted with the aristocratic family style, he was still quite kind-hearted.

Have awe of immortals and gods.

Master Tongyin came to Zhang Guolaoji and said:

"Zhang Daoyou's body is covered with immortal flowers like mist and auspicious colors. It seems that he is about to become an immortal and fly away."

"Here, I would like to congratulate you first."

"Brother Dao, you're welcome..."

Zhang Guolao smiled modestly.

Now, the last calamity has been overcome, so the chance for him to become an immortal has arrived.

He just finished speaking.

Tieguai Li's voice seemed to come from the sky, lingering in his ears:

"Disciple, come to Zhongnan Mountain quickly!"

"Brother Taoist, Master has called me, so I'll say goodbye."

"Let's meet again next year."

Hearing this, Zhang Guolao's expression tightened, and he immediately said something to Master Tongyin, then moved his body and turned into a bright light and went away.

"See you in the next year?"

"Could it be that Fellow Daoist Zhang will come to the mortal world after becoming an immortal?" Regarding Zhang Guolao's words before leaving, Master Tongyin lowered his head and thought.

……

……

Let’s talk.

Zhongnan Mountain, Heling.

Tieguai Li, Han Zhongli, and Han Xiangzi are all here.

Zhang Guolao had already passed his final calamity, so Heavenly Court had already sent immortals and twelve red-turbaned warriors to greet him.

If Lu Dongbin were here, he would definitely be familiar with the immortal man at the head.

It was the Changsong Immortal who wanted to take him to heaven.

When Zhang Guolao came to Zhongnan Mountain on a cloud, the sky and the earth were already filled with petals, colorful brocades, and auspiciousness descending from the sky.

From time to time, there are flying goddesses, dancing with their sleeves spread out, each wearing Xia Pei and looking beautiful.

Behind the twelve red-turbaned warriors, an immortal chariot was parked in the air.

Zhang Guo originally thought that becoming an ascension was nothing, but when he arrived here and saw the battle, he was still unavoidably surprised.

"Disciple, pay homage to Master and Uncle Master!"

"I've met Senior Brother Han!"

Zhang Guolao stepped on the auspicious clouds, came to Tieguai Li and others, and saluted one by one.

"Disciple, this is Changsong Immortal. He is ordered by the Jade Emperor to take you to heaven."

Tieguai Li nodded slightly and introduced the old man next to him who was wearing a purple robe and holding a fairy staff.

"Old Taoist, I have met the Changsong Immortal."

"There is a troublemaker."

Zhang Guolao said hello to Changsong Immortal Weng Jishou.

Changsong Immortal smiled kindly and said:

"Zhenzhen Zhang, you're welcome."

"Now that you are here, sit on the immortal chariot and follow me to heaven."

After speaking, he stretched out his hand to signal.

Seeing this, Zhang Guolao understood and got on the immortal chariot.

Not long after, twelve red-turbaned warriors carried the chariot and flew away, accompanied by goddesses and fairies, scattering flowers and blooming clouds, and playing music.

In an instant, the entire Zhongnan Mountain was shrouded in auspicious clouds, and the formation was so large that it could be seen from thousands of miles away.

at the same time.

Han Xiangzi and three other people also rode the wind and clouds, and went to heaven with Zhang Guolao, Changsong Xianweng and others.

……

……

After passing Bi Fengyun Lei, everyone went straight to Nantianmen.

The person on duty today is the King of Western Guangmu.

The arms are wrapped with red dragons, and the waist is wrapped with indigo.

Seeing Tieguai Li, Han Zhongli, Han Xiangzi and others arriving, the solemn expression on his face turned into a smile, and he said hello:

"I have seen the two true kings, as well as the Miaodao Star Lord and the Changsong Immortal Lord!"

Changsong Xianweng said:

"The king's words are serious."

"I am in a hurry to go to heaven to deliver my order, so I won't talk more about it."

After saying that, he took the lead in passing through Nantianmen.

Zhang Guolao was inevitably a little nervous when he came to Heaven for the first time.

The Nantian Gate is bright and green, which makes people feel respectful.

Following Changsong Immortal, he walked into the Nantian Gate step by step.

This room.

When Guangmu Tianwang and others saw the old face of Zhang Guo, they knew that it was Changsong Immortal who guided him to become an immortal.

Then he saw Tieguai Li and others seeing him off, and he immediately had some guesses:

"Is this old Taoist one of the Eight Immortals in Shangdong?"

"If this were not the case, why would we need three disciples of the Supreme Being to accompany us?"

……

　Happy New Year to all readers!
