Chapter 423: Searching for Immortals, Wushan Goddess
Chapter 423 The plot of seeking immortals, the goddess of Wushan
The water of the Yuanjiang River surges here, and then merges with the Xiangshui River in Shaoyang County, and then merges into Dongting Lake.
The 800-mile Dongting Lake is vast and winding. As far as the eye can see, the blue waves are vast, and the mountains in the distance are abrupt. There is a lake outside the lake, and there are mountains in the lake. The scenery is beautiful.
It was dusk at this time, and the scenery was different from other times of the day.
Against the background of the setting sun, there are dots of returning fishing sails, the breeze blows, the green reed leaves are swaying, the river reflects the evening sunset, and the water and sky are one after another, which makes people feel emotional.
But in the midst of this beautiful and peaceful scenery, there was only a muffled sound of "boom, boom, boom" of iron hooves hitting the ground, which suddenly caused a group of gulls and herons to fly, disturbing the tranquility and tranquility.
More than ten thousand cavalrymen with bright armor, banners covering the sky, and dignified aura came from the shore of the lake on horseback. Tens of thousands of elite soldiers and horses followed closely behind.
The sound of horse hooves resounded through the Dongting Lake, and the sound of military boots and armor lock plates clashing could be heard all the time.
The military might was magnificent and the prestige was heaven-shaking. The animals in the surrounding dense forest were filled with anxiety and fear, and even the atmosphere above the entire Dongting Lake became solemn and compelling.
The mighty honor guard fleet sailed into Dongting Lake under the protection of tens of thousands of soldiers and horses.
After arriving at Wuling Mansion, the border army generals from Jiangzhou County who came to pick him up had already met up with the Yijia fleet. After the generals met with Xiao Cheng, these tens of thousands of elite border troops officially took over.
After passing the defense mission of escorting Xiao Cheng and the entire Yijia fleet, the entire Yijia fleet was completely guarded.
If there were another group of assassins like that at this time, in front of such a large army, they might not even be able to get in front of Xiao Cheng, and they would flee in confusion.
Among the fleet, on the extremely gorgeous and majestic dragon boat, Xiao Cheng stood with his hands clasped, letting the breeze blow his clothes, leaning on the railing and looking out.
In front of such vast scenery, Xiao Cheng should have been relaxed and happy. But Xiao Cheng looked at the Dongting Lake, the tens of thousands of troops guarding the ceremonial chariots, making the beautiful land tainted with a trace of murderous atmosphere, and he couldn't help but sigh with waning interest.
He groaned and said to himself:
"It's quite a bit unpleasant to the scenery..."
Feng Bao on the side noticed Xiao Cheng's expression, his eyes moved, and he quickly stepped forward and bowed:
"There is a small island in Dongting Lake, called Junshan Island. This island is surrounded by water. Although it is not big, it is small and exquisite, with tangled peaks, ravines, green bamboo and trees, and picturesque scenery..."
"If your Majesty is so willing, all the houses and temples on Junshan Island have been renovated. Although they are simple, they can barely be used as your Majesty's temporary residence. You might as well rest here for a day and enjoy the scenery of the 800-mile Dongting Lake.
Bar."
When Xiao Cheng heard this, he turned to look at Feng Bao and chuckled:
"When did you start preparing for this? Even Jun Shanxing has already prepared it."
When Feng Bao heard this, he smiled slightly and said quickly:
"My servant has been serving His Majesty all the time, and I really don't have the energy to prepare this... This is what Master Yan sent to prepare. He told this servant that if Your Majesty is interested in enjoying the scenery, he will let you know."
"It's Yan Song!"
Xiao Cheng nodded slightly, and then said loudly;
"In this case, we won't go to Yuezhou and will go to Junshan Island instead!"
It’s rare to come to Yuezhou and enjoy the 800-mile Dongting Lake scenery. If you don’t take the opportunity to visit it, I’m afraid you will regret it if you want to come in the future.
When Feng Bao heard this, he quickly bowed and responded.
Xiao Cheng gave the order, and the Imperial Guards General passed the order on. The Yijia fleet immediately changed its direction.
There were also several warships, fully loaded with Forbidden Army officers, stick guards, and Dongchang fans, all leaving the fleet and heading towards Junshan Island quickly. Before Xiao Chengsheng arrived, the entire Junshan Island must be completely taken over to ensure safety.
As the fleet sails deeper into Dongting Lake, the scenery on the lake becomes more and more impressive.
The sunset is reflected in the lake, and the lake surface is sparkling. Junshan Mountain in the distance is small and lively, with many colors, bright or dark, thick or light, just like a beautiful landscape painting.
And at this moment, on the dragon boat, Xiao Cheng looked at Junshan in the distance, suddenly showed a look of surprise, and couldn't help but say "Huh".
Then I saw that on Junshan Island not far away, clouds were gradually condensing, shaped like peaks, rising straight up, and suddenly changing their shapes. In an instant, they were changing in a thousand ways.
"Due to the terrain of Zhongqing City, the changes in the clouds and clouds at four seasons of the year will produce strange phenomena, which are quite strange and mysterious. I never expected that the clouds on Dongting Lake and Junshan Island would look so strange.
!”
Just now, such a scene had not appeared on Junshan Island. But as the Yijia fleet approached, such a wonderful scene gradually condensed, and Xiao Cheng couldn't help but marvel.
When Feng Bao heard this, he was slightly startled, and he couldn't help but murmur in his heart.
Yan Song had previously mentioned the "Eight Views" and "Ten Shadows" of Dongting Lake to himself. But he remembered that he had never mentioned that there was such a cloud scene on Junshan Island...
But seeing the happy look on Xiao Cheng's face at this time, Feng Bao didn't speak out of his wits. He could only laugh a few times in agreement without saying anything more.
When the sun sets and the sky becomes dark, the Yijia fleet stops at Junshan Island in Dongting Lake.
This Junshan Island only covers an area of more than a thousand acres, and there are mountains and jungles on it, so it is not really that big.
Yan Song had previously sent people to search for a pavilion on Junshan Mountain, and after some repairs, it was used as a place for his departure.
It has not been repaired on a large scale, and although it is still a bit crude, to Xiao Cheng, it does not have a wild charm.
The moonlight is like water, scattered on the lake surface. The lake surface is calm, just like a jade plate. The gentle breeze caresses, and the sound of waves can be heard.
Xiao Cheng was quite satisfied with this and even called Yan Song over to praise him.
But just as the people accompanying the driver were settling in batches for the temporary trip, Liu Bowen, who was accompanying the driver, raised his head slightly and looked at the sky, seemingly puzzled.
Yuan Tiangang, who was walking beside him, followed Liu Bowen's gaze.
Then I saw the strange clouds in the sky. Under the moonlight, they looked even more beautiful, and people couldn't help but take a few more glances.
Yuan Tiangang looked around, couldn't help but move closer to Liu Bowen, and whispered:
"Uncle, do you think it's a little strange?"
Liu Bowen frowned slightly and said in a deep voice:
"Such a strange condensation of clouds should have been caused by the natural clouds, winds, and rains of the heaven and earth. But from the weather changes on this island, I see that such clouds should not have appeared..."
When Yuan Tiangang heard this, he nodded repeatedly and said in a deep voice:
"I also feel that the condensed clouds in front of me are floating and full of immortal energy, which is really not like the creation of heaven and earth!"
The two knew each other's abilities well, and when they heard that the other party noticed something was wrong, they immediately no longer thought it was their own illusion. Without saying anything, the two squatted down on the spot and began to use their methods to deduce.
Liu Bowen took stones at random, played with them in the open space, and carefully arranged them according to the islands around Dongting Lake to check the topography.
Yuan Tiangang's eyes flickered with divine light as he kept looking at the mysterious clouds in the sky, hoping to discover something from them.
But no matter how much they probed and deduced, they still found nothing wrong.
After a long time, until someone from the palace came to arrange a house for them and urged them to go back to rest, they gave up reluctantly.
Liu Bowen frowned, stood up slowly, and said in a deep voice:
"It's strange. The 800-mile Dongting Lake is indeed one of the most precious places in the world. Although Junshan Island is located in the lake, its terrain is not strange. Why is there such a concentration of clouds?"
The light in Yuan Tiangang's eyes slowly converged, he also slowly shook his head and sighed softly:
"I wonder if I can see something... I have an old friend named Li Chunfeng. He is better at the way of nature. If he were here, he might be able to see something."
When Liu Bowen heard this, he pondered for a moment and then said:
"You have mentioned him several times...I heard that he is currently assisting Li Bing, a foreign minister from the Ministry of Industry, in building the Jianchangfu Bridge. Such a person should be transferred to Beijing to work!"
Hearing this, Yuan Tiangang nodded slightly.
Liu Bowen looked up again at the strange clouds in the sky, shook his head slightly, and said with emotion:
"The natural principles of heaven and earth are vast and infinite. Even if we go a few steps deeper than ordinary people, we still cannot understand them all..."
Speaking of this, Liu Bowen's eyes suddenly moved and he said with a smile:
"When His Majesty returns from his tour to the capital in the future and Li Chunfeng is transferred to the capital, we can find an opportunity and invite ourselves to come together so that we can study the strangeness of the clouds!"
Today, Liu Bowen, because he serves as the master of Yun Tower and studies the fortune of the country for Xiao Cheng, he is rewarded as "Uncle Sincerity" for his merits. He is ranked in the third class of honors and nobles, comparable to the second-rank officials of the imperial court, and his status is extremely valuable.
At this time, Liu Bowen also proposed that the three of them should come to Junshan Island together again in the future, just to study this strange cloud. He also had to praise him for not forgetting his original intention!
When Yuan Tiangang heard Liu Bowen's words, he couldn't help but smile, nodded and said:
"I am a poor Taoist, I am willing to follow it happily!"
The two of them looked at each other and smiled, got up and left with the palace attendant who arranged food and lodging.
——
Junshan Island was temporarily walking in the middle. Feng Bao looked at Xiao Cheng who was yawning. He handed over the memorial in his hand and said carefully:
"Your Majesty, you are tired from traveling and traveling, so you might as well take a rest today!"
Xiao Cheng roughly opened the memorial in his hand and marked "read" with a large ink pen in his hand. He couldn't help but yawned again and said:
"It's strange, I don't feel very tired after this journey, so I feel so sleepy today..."
"Your Majesty may have been on the river for a few days. It's not surprising that you feel tired when you go ashore today!" Feng Bao answered.
Xiao Cheng's eyelids were really sleepy, so he immediately folded his hands to write the memorial, stood up and said:
"Okay, that's it for today!"
"yes!"
Although the night was not yet deep, perhaps it was because they had been on the river for many days that all the accompanying officials were feeling tired. Except for the officers on duty on the island and the navy warships patrolling and garrisoning around Junshan Island, the entire Junshan Island at this time
Above, everyone fell into a deep sleep.
Above the sky, the bright moon shines brightly.
Above Junshan Island, the clouds are rising high, accompanied by auspicious aura. There are more changes, which are full of strangeness...
——
While he was sleeping, Xiao Cheng suddenly felt strange and subconsciously opened his eyes. The hazy feeling in front of his eyes made him immediately stunned.
What comes into view is a crocodile gauze curtain, covered with scattered beads and silver threads of begonia flowers. The curtain gently moves and surges, and it is like falling into the phantom sea of falling cloud mountains, which makes Xiao Cheng's vision feel hazy.
He stood up subconsciously and looked around in confusion.
Then he saw that in the palace, crystal jade bis were used as lamps, pearls were used as curtains, and gold carvings and jade ornaments were used. Everything was extremely gorgeous.
Smell lightly with the tip of your nose, and there is a more fragrant fragrance in the bedroom, which is unforgettable.
The next moment, the sound of another bead curtain being lifted up and colliding was heard.
A woman wearing gorgeous palace attire, with a graceful figure, with fairy aura floating around her body, radiant, but whose appearance could not be clearly seen, slowly walked up to Xiao Cheng, leaned down and bowed, and said in a very beautiful voice.
:
"I am the daughter of Yunmeng Wushan. I heard that Your Majesty is visiting here and I would like to sleep with you tonight."
Xiao Cheng sat beside the fragrant soft bed, with a confused expression on his face, as if he still hadn't realized why he was here.
Seeing that Xiao Cheng was silent, the slim figure suddenly pursed his lips and smiled. He came towards Xiao Cheng and raised his hand to take off the jade belt around his waist.
Xiao Cheng blinked his eyes, raised his hand suddenly, and said:
"Wait, don't take it off yet!"
The slim figure suddenly froze slightly and froze on the spot.
Xiao Cheng stood up and looked at her with squinted eyes. After he couldn't see her face clearly, he said helplessly:
"I'm not the kind of person who won't eat any meat that comes to my mouth... It's just that you look hazy, so I really can't do it!"
Xiao Cheng is not a man with a seductive mind. Before he can figure out what is going on, even if he really pulls out a fairy, he won't be able to kill him... Uh, um, ah!
Xiao Cheng forced himself to calm down. After a moment of silence, he suddenly came to his senses and asked immediately:
"By the way, who did you just say about you?"
Hearing Xiao Cheng's inquiry, the graceful figure seemed a little unable to react, and said at a loss:
"I am the goddess Yunmeng Wushan."
When Xiao Cheng heard this, he slapped his forehead suddenly.
King Xiang is interested, but the goddess is unintentional!
Could it be that King Chu Xiang came to Yunmengze and listened to a story told by his minister Song Yu?
Of course, the Wushan here is not the Wushan in the Three Gorges, but Yangtang Mountain near Dongting Lake.
Thinking of this, Xiao Cheng's heart suddenly moved.
In the sight that only he could see, the golden finger panel suddenly appeared.
[The plot of seeking immortals has been triggered, dreaming of meeting the Wushan goddess...]
Seeing this line of small words, Xiao Cheng suddenly relaxed.
Hey, it turns out to be a plot about seeking immortality...
Seeing Xiao Cheng relax, his slim figure covered his mouth and smiled, and his slender hands continued to stretch to his waist, as if he really wanted to come and sleep with him.
When Xiao Cheng saw this, his expression froze at first, then he waved his hands repeatedly, forced out a smile, and said:
"I don't like this going straight to the point! Why don't we talk first?"
The goddess of Wushan, the daughter of the Red Emperor, was named Yao Ji. She died unmarried and was buried in the sun of Wushan. Her spirit was based on the grass, which was actually Ganoderma lucidum.
Yao Ji, the daughter of the Red Emperor, died without marrying and was buried in the south of Wushan Mountain. At the burial place, spiritual grass grew on the body, and she finally transformed into the goddess of Wushan Mountain.
How should I put it, the origin of this, um...
I revised one draft, so I couldn’t finish it all.
The original plot of sleeping with a goddess and then getting a life-extending pill is a bit inconsistent. It feels like the goddess has won over the male protagonist...
