Riding the wind of rebirth

Chapter 710 Legend
The Taoist said: "My surname is Bai, and I live in the plantain forest halfway up Dingshan Mountain. Please come and play when you are free."

Liu Zhen loves to travel all her life, and she likes quiet places the most. Hearing what the Taoist said, she wanted to go to Dingshan for a visit.

It was Ching Ming Festival, and the library was on holiday. After breakfast, Liu Zhen remembered the Taoist appointment, so she walked towards Dingshan.

Walking to the middle of the mountain, I really saw a plantain forest, but I couldn't see the house.Just as he was wondering, he saw a large bluestone under the largest plantain tree in front of him, and a white-haired ape leaned against the bluestone and fell asleep.

The mouth of the white ape was slightly opened, and when it exhaled, a red bead spit out from the mouth for a distance of a foot without landing, and when the ape inhaled, the bead went into its nostril again.As soon as the bead came in and out, Liu Zhen was fascinated.

He walked towards the white ape lightly, and when he saw the pearl running out of the white ape's mouth again, he took it with one hand.At this time, the white ape woke up with a start and turned into a white bearded Taoist.

When the Taoist saw that it was Liu Zhen, he said, "Mr. Liu, return the pearl to me quickly." '

Seeing that the white ape had turned into a white-bearded Taoist, Liu Zhen was not surprised when the two had known each other for a long time, but said, "I want to take a look at your bead." '

But the Taoist said, "This bead is very important and must not be seen." 'After speaking, come to snatch it.

Liu Zhen hurriedly hid the bead behind her back, and the Taoist went behind her to grab the bead again.Liu Zhen hurriedly put the beads into her mouth.Seeing this, the Taoist hurriedly grabbed Liu Zhen's throat with his hands and asked Liu Zhen to spit out the beads.

Liu Zhen thought to herself, I'm just playing with you, but you are so mean, you can't help but smile.

It didn't matter that he smiled, but the pearl was swallowed down his throat.

When the Taoist saw this, he was so angry that he beat his chest and stomped his feet. He let out a long sigh and said, "The Taoism that I have cultivated for hundreds of years was originally for you, Liu Zhen!" 'After speaking, he fell to the ground and turned into a white ape again, rolled a few times and died.

When Liu Zhen saw it, she was very regretful, but she couldn't save the white ape, so she had to bury the white ape, and piled up a grave with rubble.I bowed deeply to the grave three times, and then went back.

Back at the library, Liu Zhen was very sad and had no intention of teaching anymore, so she quit the library and wandered around.

Then he discovered a miracle. After swallowing the beads of the white ape, his body became lighter and he no longer felt hungry.

Later, when he wandered to Baimi Cave, there was a sudden heavy rain, and Liu Zhen ran into the cave to hide from the rain.

Feeling sleepy, Liu Zhen fell asleep leaning on the stone.When I woke up in the afternoon, I saw green mountains and green waters outside the cave, and a rainbow appeared in the east.

Liu Zhen felt that this was an omen from the immortal, so she stayed in the cave to practice. "

At this time Yang He said: "The Baimi Cave is in Baimi Township. I heard that Liu Zhen took a bowl of rice from this cave every day to worship her mother. That's how our Baimi Township got its name."

"Yes." Zhou Zhi went on to say, "Liu Zhen went to Baimi Cave to practice for a year, and the nearby villagers and children often invited them to come and watch Liu Laodao. Inscribed a poem: "The bamboo stick is long and you don't see the scene, and you will turn back nine times after ten steps. In the cave, you will get the real news, and a little spiritual light will shoot the bullfight." This poem is still engraved in the Baimi Cave."

"In the end, Liu Zhen traveled to the west of Jiachuan City, and found that the mountains here are high and handsome, and the peaks look like lotus flowers. She was very happy, applauded and laughed, and said, 'Where else do I need to find, this is a good place!'

So Liu Zhen dug two holes under the highest peak on the top of the mountain to take his old mother in. The upper hole is where he meditates and the lower hole is his old mother's residence.It is said that to this day, the kitchen, bedroom, stone bed and water tank can still be seen clearly in the lower cave.It is the Jiulian Cave we have just been to.

One morning, Liu Zhen's mother said: "Zhen'er, it's okay for you to practice immortality and Taoism like you, but it's okay if you don't eat oil or meat. My mother is old and hasn't eaten meat for a long time. It's good to eat a meal." '

Liu Zhen said: "Mother, why didn't you say it earlier."It's not difficult to eat meat. In this way, you cook first, and I'll go to Jiachuan City right away, cut a piece of meat and give it to your old man. '

'Son, Jiachuan City is so far away from us, isn't this coaxing my old lady? ' His mother didn't believe it at all.

Liu Zhen said: "Mother, how can I coax you, when I cut the meat back, the water for steaming your rice has not yet boiled." '

When Liu's mother was happy, she said a word: "So soon, my son has become a fairy?" '

After hearing this, Liu Zhen immediately knelt down in front of her mother: "Thanks to the gift from my mother." '

After saying that, he got up and walked out of the cave, using the magic power of the gods, stepped on his left foot, and saw a footprint beside the cave, which was the footpad field at the foot of the mountain seen in the Chuanfeng cave; Leshan stepped on two gaps and turned into a pen holder shape, then flew lightly to Hejiang City, and cut a piece of pork.

After buying the meat, Liu Zhen rode the auspicious cloud into the sky again, and looked back at Dingshan Mountain in the distance, only to find that the mountain was much higher than before.

Liu Zhen knew in her heart that it was because the white ape practiced Taoism in Dingshan for many years, which gave Dingshan some immortality, and now he relied on me to become an immortal, so he kept growing upwards regardless of everything.

That's not bad, if it keeps growing upwards, won't it break through the sky? !At that time, Liu Zhen couldn't afford to blame the immortals? !
Thinking of this, Liu Zhen chanted a mantra, and with a flick of her finger, the rock she cultivated flew out of the Jiulian Cave in Anle Mountain, and became bigger and bigger in the air.

Liu Zhen pointed again, this rock was not deviated or crooked, it just flew up and landed on the top of Dingshan Mountain.Since then, Dingshan has never grown upwards.

Carrying the meat, Liu Zhen drove Xiangyun back to the Xianding cave, and placed the piece of fresh pork in front of her mother.When his mother saw it, she was overjoyed and said repeatedly: "My son has really become a fairy! My son has really become a fairy!" '

From then on, Liu Zhen took care of her mother, and only after her mother passed away did she hide her belongings in Bailu Cave, leaving her last words to Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty and flying to immortality. "

"Here, we've arrived at the Sunning Pill Stone. Legend has it that this is the place where Liu Zhen dried the elixir."

This is a two-person-high boulder, which is located on the side of the mountain road. From the mountain road, you can see some thumb-sized holes distributed on it, which can almost fit the hawthorn pills for children. It is said to be sun-dried stone. It's kind of apt.

"There is also a name here called 'Yanying Daochang', because it is said that there is still Liu Zhen's spiritual energy left on this stone, and Yanying likes to fly and gather, so it got its name."

The combination of fiction and reality, and the comparison between legends and ruins, the friends heard something fresh and interesting.

"Li Mingke, the instructor of Jiachuan in the Ming Dynasty, left a short essay on the history of Anle Mountain, saying: 'This mountain was formerly named Anle, the former residence of Liu Zhen in the Sui Dynasty, with three peaks standing on the wall, stretching for dozens of miles, and many stone tablets are relics of the Tang and Song Dynasties.' He also left a poem saying:
The steles of the Tang Dynasty and the pavilions of the Song Dynasty are hidden at the end of the rock, and the weeds and flying flowers are not damaged.

The blue bird has turned into pellets, and the white ape faces the cold of Zitai.

The fairies of the good mountains are here in spring, and the old traces come to see them with old eyes.

Xiaojue's futon is clear and dreamy, as if visiting Ananda from heaven. "

"That's the story."

After passing Sundan Stone, even if everyone entered the back mountain, the bamboo forest in the back mountain was shaded by trees, and even though it was noon, it was still very cool.

All the way through Bailongchi, Daerwo, Zhou Zhi also explained the legend here.

Da'erwo is a cliff stone carving, facing Jiachuan, and there is a small Maitreya Buddha among the inscriptions.

It is rumored that when a woman comes here to play, she picks up a lump of mud and throws it backhanded onto the cliff. If the mud ball hits the belly button of the Maitreya Buddha statue, the woman will give birth to a son.
