Not mentioning all the affairs of Xiqi, Feiyun Cave in Jialong Mountain was afraid of leaving his grandson behind. After returning to the cave, he saw his disciples doing nothing in the mountains.
I also remembered the situation of my junior disciple Jiang Ziya in Xiqi. Now that all the Twelve Golden Immortals have returned, although the four third-generation disciples remain in Xiqi, they are still in the stage of recovering their cultivation.
Afraid of leaving Sun Xin, he said: "Jiang Shang is in Xiqi now, and I'm afraid there will be no one available. Although my disciple doesn't look very good, he has been practicing Taoism for many years and has some skills. It would be better to let him go down the mountain to help Ziya.
To get through this stage where no one is available."
Fearful Sun made a decision in his heart, so he called out: "Tu Xingsun, come see me quickly!"
Tu Xingsun, who was playing in the mountains, suddenly heard the teacher's shout in his ears. He knew that the teacher had returned to the mountain and was calling him.
Tu Xingsun hurriedly used the "Earth Movement Technique" and walked towards the mountain gate. Within a moment, Tu Xingsun appeared at the entrance of the cave.
Tu Xingsun quickly entered the cave and bowed to Horhenliu Sun: "I have seen the teacher. I am late. I hope the teacher will forgive me!"
Seeing that Tu Xingsun was very polite, Wei Liusun nodded and said, "Get up!"
Tu Xingsun asked: "I wonder what the teacher has to say when recruiting disciples?"
Fearing to stay, Sun Dao said: "I have returned from Xiqi as my master. Now, your Uncle Jiang is temporarily short of manpower. You go down the mountain to find your Uncle. Listen to his orders and don't act rashly!"
Tu Xingsun said: "Disciple, please obey the teacher's teachings!"
Fearful Sun thought for a while and then said: "Come down the mountain now, and I will give you the 'Immortal Binding Rope' again." He said that three golden ropes flew out of his sleeves.
Tu Xingsun took the "Immortal Binding Rope" and was about to say goodbye and go down the mountain. Afraid of leaving, Sun said again: "Bring a few more pots of elixirs."
Tu Xingsun received the teacher's decree, packed up and headed to Xiqi. Halfway through, he met a Taoist riding a black panther.
The Taoist was Shen Gongbao who was making friends everywhere and causing trouble for Jiang Ziya. Although this man was only four feet tall before Shen Gongbao met, he didn't care as he was a Taoist.
There are so many strange people and strange things in this world. As long as you have the ability, who cares how weird you look.
Shen Gongbao said hello and asked: "Tong'er, where are you going?"
Tu Xingsun saw a Taoist priest riding a black panther talking to him and asked hurriedly: "Who is the Taoist priest and where did he come from?"
Shen Gongbao got off his mount and said, "I am Chantiao Shen Gongbao, and I came from the East China Sea."
When Tu Xingsun heard that he was the one who was teaching, he immediately put down his guard and bowed and said: "Uncle Master, I am afraid of staying in Feiyun Cave in Jialong Mountain. Now, on the order of the teacher, I am going to Xiqi to help Uncle Jiang Ziya."
.”
When Shen Gongbao heard that he was going to help Jiang Ziya, what could he do? His mind changed and he said: "It turns out that he is a disciple of Senior Brother Sun who is afraid to stay. Uncle, I just came from Xiqi, and there is nothing going on with Ziya. You must go there as well."
If you have nothing to do, why don't you follow me to Chaoge to have a look? Chaoge is a royal city, and the weather must be extraordinary."
This Tu Xingsun has been practicing Taoism for hundreds of years, and now he has just received his master's order to go down the mountain. Although he also wants to travel around, after all, the master's majesty is too great and he dare not disobey his master's orders.
So he said to Shen Gongbao: "Thank you for your kindness, uncle, but the teacher asked me to go to Xiqi quickly. I don't dare to disobey."
Shen Gongbao saw that Tu Xingsun was a little tempted, but he didn't dare to go against his master's orders. He couldn't help laughing and said: "What's the difficulty? When the time comes, my uncle will intercede for you. If senior brother Sun is aware of it, he won't blame him!"
When Tu Xingsun heard this, although he was moved, he still shook his head and said: "If it's not that I don't want to, I really can't. Thank you so much, uncle, for your kindness!"
When Shen Gongbao saw that this earthly grandson couldn't talk, he changed his strategy and said: "Since you don't want to, then forget it. Originally, I had to go to Sanshan Pass on this trip. I heard that Deng Jiugong, the commander-in-chief of Sanshan Pass, wanted to give his daughter to him.
Find a good son-in-law. Deng Chanyu was born with beautiful face and handsome appearance, and there is an endless stream of people asking for marriage. I see that you are a disciple of Senior Brother Sun, so I must have some ability, so I want to introduce you to Deng Jiugong. But you are not free.
Then forget it, it’s such a pity.”
When Tu Xingsun heard this, it was okay. He was born short and was not liked by others. His dream was to marry a beautiful wife. Now that he heard that the daughter of the commander of Sanshanguan Pass was beautiful, he was still tempted.
I thought to myself, it’s okay if I go to Xiqi later, and the teacher won’t know. If Deng Chanyu married someone else, wouldn’t she have missed out on her whole life?
Tu Xingsun couldn't help but said: "Is what Uncle Master said true?"
When Shen Gongbao saw that Tu Xingsun was attracted, he couldn't help but said: "Am I going to lie to you again? That Deng Chanyu is really beautiful. Now she has reached the age where she should get married!"
When Tu Xingsun heard this, he was extremely happy, and he quickly bowed and said: "My disciple is willing to go, I am willing to go!"
Seeing this, Shen Gongbao couldn't help but smile softly and thought to himself: "Since you have entered my shell, how can you escape from my grasp?"
Shen Gongbao said deliberately: "Have you thought about it? Don't you still have to deal with the teacher's instructions?"
Tu Xingsun said sarcastically: "Disciple, I have thought about it. The teacher's instructions will be handled after the disciple marries Deng Chanyu. I don't think the teacher will blame me."
Shen Gongbao nodded, and then led Tu Xingsun to Sanshan Pass.
Deng Jiugong, the commander-in-chief of Sanshan Pass, has been extremely anxious since he heard the general order from the Grand Master. However, Sanshan Pass is the gateway to the south.
Nan Bohou had been rebelling for a long time, and Deng Jiugong did not dare to leave him lightly. He had to wait for the court to send a new general officer before he could lead his troops to rescue Grand Master Wen.
However, before the new commander-in-chief of the imperial court arrived, he received the news that Master Wen had died in battle. Deng Jiugong was also filled with emotion. The efficiency of the imperial court was getting lower and lower, and now most of the eight hundred princes in the world had rebelled.
The Chengtang world was already on the verge of collapse, and King Zhou was still neglecting state affairs. If he had sent people to guard Sanshan Pass earlier, he might have been able to rescue Master Wen, and the Yin Shang would not have lost another pillar of the country.
After King Zhou received the news of Taishi's death, he ordered him to lead troops to attack Xiqi. He reorganized his troops at Sanshan Pass and waited until Kong Xuan, the new commander-in-chief of the imperial court, came to lead troops and took over the defense before he would lead the troops to the expedition.
So much so that I have been so busy lately.
At this time, Chen Jiugong was in the palace, and a soldier reported: "General Qi, a Taoist who calls himself Shen Gongbao is outside the door asking for an audience."
When Deng Jiugong heard that it was Shen Gongbao, he cheered up and said, "Invite him in!"
After a while, Shen Gongbao led Tu Xingsun into the mansion. Deng Jiugong said: "Taoist Master Shen, why are you free to come to my place today?"
It is said that Shen Gongbao really has a wide circle of friends. He can talk to everyone from Jiejiao Jinxian to Yin Shang generals. I have to say that this is also a skill.
Shen Gongbao said: "I heard that Marshal has been in some difficulties recently, so I am here to help!"
When Deng Jiugong heard this, he couldn't help but be overjoyed: "The Taoist priest helped me as he wished, so it's absolutely foolproof!"
Shen Gongbao shook his head and said: "It is not convenient for a poor Taoist to take action, but I have a nephew who has practiced Taoism for hundreds of years and has some Taoist skills. I think he should be able to help the marshal."
Deng Jiugong was already a little disappointed when he heard that it was not Shen Gongbao. However, he heard that his nephew had been practicing Taoism for hundreds of years and he had some skills. He couldn't help but have some hope.
