Ming Dynasty: Gain one supernatural power every day
Chapter 199 Interesting Stories of the Heavenly Court 3
"The fairy maiden wore red, gentle and dignified."
"The two fairy maidens, dressed in simple white robes, were elegant and ethereal."
"The three fairies, dressed in green, were lively and spirited;"
"The four fairy maidens wore black robes and were quiet and reserved."
"The five fairies, dressed in purple, were charming and alluring."
"The six fairies wore yellow dresses, and were charming and lovely."
"As for the Seven Fairy Maidens..."
Pigsy deliberately dragged out his words. "That's the most famous one, dressed in green, the most lively and spirited. She later descended to earth and married the Cowherd, the Weaver Girl from your human legend of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl."
"So it's the Weaver Girl!" Zhu Gaoxu's mouth dropped open.
"Hehe, I, Old Pig, also contributed a lot to the intricacies of this matter."
"Little Qi is the closest to me. She calls me 'Brother Tianpeng' all the time. When she secretly descended to the mortal world, I was the one who covered for her."
"Later, when the Queen Mother of the West created the Milky Way, it was I who secretly let the water flow. Every year on Qixi Festival, I would have magpies build a bridge, and I would tell the online army not to stop them."
"Otherwise, do you think those magpies could fly over so easily?"
Pigsy spoke with great conviction, even patting his chest, "Although I, Old Pig, may look rough and tough, I have a soft heart."
"Brother, you're so righteous!" Zhu Gaoxu gave a thumbs up.
"However, although the Seven Fairy Maidens are beautiful, they are not the most beautiful in Heaven." Pigsy changed the subject, his eyes suddenly becoming dreamy.
"The most beautiful woman in Heaven is Chang'e, the fairy in the Moon Palace."
"That's what you call true beauty, the most beautiful woman in the Three Realms. You haven't seen it. The fairy Chang'e has a face like a full moon, eyebrows like distant mountains, eyes like autumn water, and lips like cinnabar."
"Her black hair cascaded down like a waterfall, her skin was as white as snow, and when she walked, her skirts fluttered, filling the palace with fragrance."
"If she stood there without moving, she would be like a jade sculpture in the moon palace, so beautiful that people dared not look directly at her."
"Not to mention her Rainbow Feather Dance, with her long sleeves fluttering and her waist twirling, even the petals on the laurel tree seem to float up, and the clouds in the sky gather to watch."
"Every male immortal in Heaven, without exception, has a dream."
Zhu Gaoxu's eyes widened as he listened, his Adam's apple bobbing up and down several times, and he almost swallowed.
Zheng Heng, Xue Lu, and Qiu Fu, who were standing next to him, seemed to be bewitched, holding their wine glasses in their hands for a long time without moving them.
Although Zhang Fu still maintained a stern expression, his slightly forward-leaning posture betrayed him.
"Brother, then... does the Moon Goddess Chang'e like you too?" Zhu Gaoxu asked tentatively, his voice filled with barely suppressed excitement.
"Guess," Pigsy said, raising an eyebrow with a smug look on his face.
"Is there even a need to guess? It's definitely him!" Xue Lu blurted out. "With a marshal as valiant as he is, even the Seven Fairies are vying for his attention. How could Chang'e not like him?"
"Brother, you guessed right."
Pigsy chuckled and leaned back. "I, Old Pig, spend all day training the navy in the Milky Way, working myself to death. As a result, those seven fairies keep sending me all sorts of food, like fine wine, celestial fruits, and candied fruit. They're always chasing after me, Old Pig."
"The fairy Chang'e often invites me to the Moon Palace to enjoy osmanthus wine, admire the moon, and watch dances."
"You wouldn't believe it, every time I come out of the Moon Palace, the eyes of those male immortals in Heaven are as red as rabbits', as if they want to devour me alive."
"Brother, you're living the life! So carefree!" Zhu Gaoxu slapped his thigh, his face flushed with envy.
"It was carefree, but it also sowed the seeds of my later misfortune." Pigsy sighed and took another swig of wine.
"Those seven fairies all said they would only marry me. Although the Jade Emperor has seven daughters, it's impossible for him to marry all seven of them to me, Old Pig."
"Besides, even the Jade Emperor himself has his doubts. I, Old Pig, am so popular, my civil and military officials all submit to me, my daughters all have their eyes on me, and on top of that, I'm handsome. How can the Jade Emperor be comfortable with that?"
"This...it can't be that serious, can it? The Jade Emperor would be jealous of you?" Zheng Heng was a little skeptical.
"Of course I'm jealous! I, Old Pig, haven't finished yet."
Pigsy lowered his voice and said mysteriously, "The Jade Emperor has a mirror called the Haotian Mirror, which can illuminate the entire Three Realms. There is a spirit inside that mirror that knows everything."
"Once, I went to report military affairs to the Jade Emperor. When I got to the door, I heard the Jade Emperor inside asking the spirit of the artifact, 'Tell me, between me and Marshal Tianpeng, who is the most handsome?'"
Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes widened in surprise.
"Guess what the spirit said?" Pigsy looked around, deliberately keeping everyone in suspense.
"What did you say? Marshal, tell me quickly!" Zhu Gaoxu slammed his fist on the table in his anxiety.
"The spirit said, 'In terms of handsomeness, Marshal Tianpeng is naturally superior.'" Pigsy slapped his thigh and burst into laughter.
"Hahahaha! Good! What a wonderful spirit! You're absolutely right!" Zhu Gaoxu laughed so hard he almost fell over, spilling his wine.
"The Jade Emperor was so angry that he grabbed the Haotian Mirror and smashed it on the ground with a loud crash," Pigsy said, mimicking the action of smashing something.
"I, Old Pig, was listening outside the door, and I couldn't help but burst out laughing. But that laugh had a catch; the Jade Emperor inside heard it."
"That's it, they've added another one to my list."
"Dude, your laugh couldn't be more at a worse time!"
Zhu Gaoxu laughed until tears almost streamed down his face, patting Zhu Bajie on the shoulder, "But if it were me, I'd laugh too!"
"Hey, this isn't over yet."
Pigsy picked up his wine cup again, took a sip, and struck a storyteller's pose: "Later, at the Queen Mother's Peach Banquet, I drank a couple more cups. After the banquet, I was returning to the Milky Way alone when I passed by the entrance of the Moon Palace and heard someone inside shouting for help."
"No way, how come there are people in Heaven crying for help?" Zhu Gaoxu's eyes widened.
"Yes! Even the Heavenly Court has such dirty dealings?" Xue Lu perked up as well.
"Sigh, you're all too young. The Heavenly Court is a very complex place."
Pigsy waved his hand.
"I went in to take a look."
"Guess what? It's Wu Gang! The Wu Gang who chops down the cassia tree in the moon palace every day! He's drunk and talking nonsense to Chang'e, and he's even trying to touch her."
"Wu Gang? Who's that?" Zheng Heng scratched his head.
"That's the stinky tree cutter, the lumberjack!" Qiu Fu seemed to have some recollection of him.
The story of Wu Gang chopping down the cassia tree was recorded in the Tang Dynasty book "Youyang Zazu," and these people had heard of it to some extent.
"Yes, yes, that's the guy who cuts down trees."
Pigsy nodded repeatedly, "That man was big and burly, with a round face, a thick beard, and shifty eyes. I didn't think he was a good person at all, but I never expected him to do something like this!"
"Round face and beard? Good thing we're not." Zhu Gaoxu subconsciously touched his beard, and exchanged glances with the people next to him, their expressions somewhat subtle.
"Brother, what happened next? Did the Moon Goddess Chang'e not let him succeed?" Zheng Heng leaned forward anxiously.
