Gods and Immortals

Dozens of miles to the south of Xiqi, there is a land border with continuous mountains and shrouded in clouds and fog all the year round. Although the sun is rare, it is not as gloomy and gloomy as in the deep mountains and dense forests.

In this land, there is a legend that anyone who can climb the highest peak of this mountain range will be able to see the legendary gods. Perhaps if you have good morals, the gods may accept you as an apprentice.

The legend has been passed down from several villages and towns down the mountain for many generations, and even the people in Xiqili, a big city in the north, know it. Naturally, many brave men risk their lives to climb in spite of the danger.

But all those who had tried their guts came back and all marveled that the top of the peak was like a fairyland, and the Immortal Mansion was floating in the mist and light of the mountains, which made people awe-inspiring.

But when someone asked them if they had seen a god, they all shook their heads one by one, wondering what it looked like if they hadn't seen a god.

Many years have passed, and the legend has spread, but there are fewer people climbing the mountain to seek immortals, and many more people come to visit the mountain to enjoy the scenery, but these tourists are never allowed to go halfway up the mountain, and the road is only built to the foot of the mountain for convenience. The woodcutters of the surrounding farmers use it for their livelihood.

Anyone who planned to go up was caught by several Xi who guarded the mountain all the year round.vertex.Xiaoqi's soldiers stopped him and warned that the mountain was dangerous, and he was not allowed to go up again.

Today, as usual, two nobles from Xiqi and their families came to visit the mountain. The mighty guard of honor went all the way to the foot of the mountain. The fields in the distance were full of villagers watching the excitement. No one had ever seen such a big During the battle, I have never seen the silky and shiny robes on those nobles.

The soldiers guarding the mountain on Daluyuan Mountain saw these people, hurried down from the mountain, stopped before the battle, and stopped everyone.

"Hey, your majesty has stipulated that carriages and horses are not allowed to go up the mountain, and tourists can only go to the mountainside! The road at the foot of the mountain ends here. Which family are you from? If you want to visit the mountain, just come down and take two steps, and the guard of honor will not be allowed. Go up further." A soldier's clothes are a little worn out, and he looks very low compared to this glamorous aristocratic guard of honor, but he speaks neither humble nor overbearing, quite magnanimous.

Hearing this, a girl's head poked out from the carriage. She looked very ordinary, but there was a domineering look between her brows.

"Who is he?" The girl asked a fat woman beside her, who looked like a housekeeper.

"Master, don't be in a hurry. Wait for the slave to come forward and ask." After the fat woman finished speaking, she stepped forward and glanced at the soldier, "My lord is Xiqi Dabu, and the daughter of Master Dobu is in the car. Who are you? Dare to block the frame of an adult?"

"This subordinate is the guard of Zhongnan Mountain, which is under the jurisdiction of the Xiqi City Defense Army. He is here to watch the mountain!" The soldier smiled slightly, "This subordinate is also under the order of the king. If you don't mind tourists disturbing Zhongnan Mountain, please do so." Get out of the car and walk up the mountain!"

At this time, there are tourists and woodcutters going up and down one after another.Passing by the foot of this mountain, seeing the two guards of honor stopped, I couldn't help but feel a little fresh, and stopped to watch one after another.

Among the onlookers.There are two white Taoist robes, a man and a woman with jade-like complexions.He glanced at this place with a light smile, took a light step, and walked up the mountain.

The girl heard what the soldiers said in the car and knew the rules, so she opened the curtain and planned to get out of the car.

Unexpectedly, the girl hadn't poked her feet out yet, and the girl suddenly saw the two men in white smiling and sweeping past her. The man was gentle and elegant, with a handsome face, and at first glance, he was the kind of handsome that made the little girl's heart flutter.The woman is dignified and elegant, with a beautiful appearance. Although she is not considered overwhelming, it still makes people's hearts tremble.

For some reason, when this pair looked at her with a faint smile, the girl felt a sense of jealousy in her heart. The jealousy was unbearable and she couldn't do anything to other passers-by for no reason, so the girl lost her temper and said coldly to the woman: "Let him go away!" Open! I don't see any rules!"

The woman responded, and said to the soldier: "Get out of here quickly, my master didn't see you say that rule, today is going up the mountain!"

The soldier was not angry either, and moved his body away with a smile, revealing a huge stone with writing not far behind, and pointed, "Did you see the writing on that stone?"

The woman glanced at it, but she didn't know how to read, so she yelled at the soldier, "No words are useless! Get out of here and let my master go up the mountain!"

"Hmph, I'll read it to you!" The soldier approached the boulder and said in a loud voice, "Chong! Nan! Shan!"

"Those who climb this mountain should piously seek the blessings of the gods. They are not allowed to ride horses and mounts. When they return to the middle of the mountain, they must not violate it!" The soldier said, "This is the rule set by King Wen and King Jichang. Do you want to violate it?"

At this moment, under a big pine tree next to the boulder, two old men were playing chess. Beside him, a woodcutter who had unloaded his burden to watch the fun yelled, "Yes, even if you don't want to see some god, the mountain road is not wide. There are still pedestrians coming and going, you see there are old people playing chess here, it is not appropriate to touch them if they are hurt!"

The two old chess players heard what the woodcutter said, stroked their beards and looked up at him with a smile. At this time, a man and a woman were walking down the pine tree. The four of them looked at each other and smiled, but no one spoke.

The old chess player with his back against the pine tree suddenly said: "Miss, come to enjoy the mountain scenery. If you don't feel calm, what's the point of enjoying the scenery?"

"What the old man said is..." Before the woodman could finish his words of agreement, the girl in the car said coldly and angrily, "You want to teach me a lesson? Blow them away!"

"Yes!" Four guards immediately walked out of the guard of honor, raised their hands and grabbed the soldiers. Their movements were nimble and swift, and they looked like warriors with some cultivation.

At this time, under the pine tree, the old man who had just spoken shook his head and smiled lightly. The moment he opened his mouth to speak, the time and space around him froze instantly.

The mist on the mountain road, the pine needles blown down by the wind, the woodcutter who got up to try to persuade him to fight, and the guards who started the fight, seemed to be frozen in time and space, even time stopped.

Only the other old man who sat opposite him and played chess, has nothing to do with the pair of jade-faced men and women.

"The poor Taoist has practiced for many years, but he is still unwilling to give up the practice of persuading good people." The old man waved his hand, and two more wooden stakes appeared under the tree, and a man and a woman sat down on them respectively. Dao knows how to test people's hearts."

The woman sat down slowly, and said with a smile: "Where is Senior Brother Yun Zhongzi, Cihang's move is the worst policy."

The man beside Cihang glanced at the old man who was sitting opposite Yun Zhongzi playing chess, and asked suspiciously: "Brother Taiyi, what kind of riddle are they playing?"

The old man who hadn't spoken all this time was still staring at the chessboard and pondering, when he heard the man's question, he looked annoyed that he was disturbed, "Junior Brother Puxian, you practice with the teacher every day, and you can't even see this thing? "

"how?"

"The girl from Xiqi has hostility in her temper, this matter has nothing to do with you or me." The old man named Taiyi said: "Junior Sister Cihang has seen her, she must help this girl get rid of the hostility Yes, but there are two ways to help her, one is persuasion, that is, Senior Brother Yun Zhongzi said a few more words."

"The other way is to let her suffer a little bit for this hostility, and then she will know how to restrain herself." Taiyi said: "When she came, Junior Sister took a look at her and made her jealous, and someone suppressed her , Let her know it's so bad!"

Puxian glanced at the soldier guarding the mountain suddenly, "This man also has three rounds of cultivation, which is more than enough to deal with those four people, but the method of junior sister seems to be more hostile than that girl..."

Yun Zhongzi chuckled, "Tianzun accepted you as the twelve immortals as his direct disciples, and what he valued was that your celestial origins are strong and powerful, so that you can maintain the prosperity of Yuxu's lineage. My teaching methods are really gentle. A little bit."

"Don't talk nonsense with them." Taiyi said: "Come on, let's finish this game quickly, I have to go to Kongsang Mountain with them, it's really troublesome..."

Yun Zhongzi nodded and said: "So today we won't be able to play chess. I have a disciple who should be going to the mountain today. When you come back from Kongsang Mountain, come find me."

"Alright!" Taiyi stood up, straightened his robe, and twirled his beard, "Let's go now."

Yun Zhongzi nodded with a smile. In an instant, everything around him moved, and time continued to flow. The fists of the four guards were almost about to hit the soldier's face.

Hearing an angry shout, the soldier directly swept back, and the four guards who were only in their early two rounds were instantly slammed back by a huge force, directly hitting the girl's frame. The shocked girl couldn't sit still, He slammed into the car door hard.

"Hmph, if you want to do something, don't blame me for being rude!" the soldier shouted angrily.

The woodcutter, who got up to help, immediately shrank back when he saw this posture, and said embarrassingly: "I still think I can't beat this soldier..."

The woodcutter glanced behind him from the corner of his eye, turned his head abruptly, and scratched his head, "Hey, where is he? He was playing chess here just now, why is he gone?"

No one noticed how many people disappeared under the pine tree, and no one cared about the woodcutter's doubts. Everyone only saw the domineering noble girl. He got off the frame, a little scared, and glared at the soldier angrily before heading up to Zhongnan Mountain... (to be continued...)
