subvert the late Tang Dynasty

The old Taoist said with a smile: "I'm ashamed to be called Immortal Elder. The poor Taoist layman's surname is Lu Mingyan, his name is Dongbin, and his Taoist name is Chunyangzi!"

"Damn, the old guy turned out to be Lu Dongbin!" Zhu Wen exclaimed in his heart.

According to legend, Lu Dongbin is the head of the Eight Immortals, and he often went to the market to save people and save all living beings. His reputation can be called No. 1 in Taoism.Lu Dongbin of Taoism, Avalokitesvara of Buddhism, and Guandi of Shintoism are the gods who have received the most incense from the world for more than a thousand years, and are also the most famous.

According to historians, Lu Dongbin was a Taoist priest in the late Tang Dynasty and the Five Dynasties period. He was really famous in the Song Dynasty and was honored as one of the Five Northern Patriarchs by Wang Chongyang, the founder of Quanzhen Sect.Later, Qiu Chuji, Wang Chongyang's disciple and the Mongolian national teacher, started a large-scale construction project in Shanxi. It took more than ten years to build Yongli Palace to worship Lu Dongbin.Since then, Lu Dongbin has become famous all over the world.

Of course, Zhu Wen from the 21st century is clear about this, but seeing this "immortal" who is famous all over the world for real, still makes Zhu Wen's head a little overwhelmed.After all, this is the fairy who was said to be the year before last, and this is Zhu Wen. If it were someone else, it would be strange if he didn't immediately prostrate on the ground and shout "Lu Shangxian"!

Seeing that Zhu Wen was in a daze, Zhu Zhen felt a little puzzled, isn't he just a Taoist priest, even if he is Chunyangzi and Chunyinzi, how could he frighten the third brother when he reported his Taoist name?Could it be... the third brother's soul-leaving disorder has occurred again?But this time Zhu Zhen didn't dare to talk nonsense. Of course, she had a long memory after being beaten up just now.Quietly tugged on Zhu Wen's sleeve and gave him a wink.

Zhu Wen was startled, and also aware of his gaffe, he coughed twice to cover up, and asked tentatively, "I don't know where Lu Xianshi is going?"

Lu Dongbin said: "Poverty travels around the world, the four seas are my home, no fixed place to live, and I am at peace with whatever happens."

The more Zhu Wen looked at it, the more he felt that Lu Dongbin was a fairy, "Damn, if there is a fairy by his side, then..." Zhu Wen had already started to dream, but he knew that it was impossible for a real fairy to let himself stay. Be a staff member by your side.

But he still didn't give up, and said: "This place has been in disrepair for a long time, and the houses are simple. Now the younger generation just happens to be stationed in Luyi County, not far from here. Why don't you ask the immortal leader to move into the city for a few days, so that the younger generation can live here?" I have the opportunity to listen to the way of the master. What do you think of the master?"

Lu Dongbin twisted his beard and thought for a while, as if thinking seriously for a while, he said: "Alright, since you and I can meet each other, it can be regarded as a predestined relationship, so I won't bother you if you are so old."

Zhu Wenxi said: "The horses have been prepared outside Guanwai, please!" Zhu Wen is so happy, who is Lu Dongbin?That is a god admired by hundreds of millions of people. Although real people may not be as powerful as the legends say, but again, they can't go anywhere, right?Even if he is not a god, at least he should have practiced Dan, and the gunpowder problem should be solved.

But he didn't notice that there was a sneaky smile on the corner of Lu Dongbin's mouth, and a cunning flashed in his eyes inadvertently, but then he turned into a fairy image again.

When the group entered Luyi County, Zhu Wen hosted a banquet to welcome Lu Dongbin, the immortal in his mind. Considering that Lu Dongbin was a monk, Zhu Wen specially cooked some exquisite vegetarian dishes himself.

There was not a single meat dish in the large table, which showed how much Zhu Wen valued Lu Dongbin.

But he didn't hear that Lu Laoxian's stomach was already growling, and he hadn't eaten all day.Seeing how respectful General Zhu was to him, Lu Dongbin thought he could get a good meal, but he didn't expect to get a table of vegetarian dishes. He really thought I was a vegetarian.But it's enough, it's better than nothing.

Zhu Zhen and Zhu Cun were not happy, they had to have some meat no matter what.Zhu Zhen got angry when she saw this table of vegetarian dishes, can she be full with this kind of food?Okay, let me have some more bowls of rice.However, this kid was still a bit unwilling to give up, and said: "Really Lu, are you always afraid of meat?"

This question touched Lu Dongbin's heart, I saw that he plucked off his long white beard very gracefully, and said: "Wine and meat have passed through the intestines, and the road is in the heart. We don't shy away from meat when we get home."

When Zhu Zhen heard this, she was overjoyed, blinked at Zhu Wen, and said, "Third brother, may I trouble you again... It's best to get more sweet and sour pork ribs. I haven't eaten them for a long time. It's hard When the third brother cooks next time, he will still be honored by Master Lu."

After a while, several steaming meat dishes were served, and the banquet officially began.Huang Ying heard that Zhu Wen had invited a Taoist priest, so she also came to have a look, just in time for the banquet.He smiled and said, "Third brother didn't even say a word when he was cooking today. I don't know that my junior sister hasn't eaten your cooking for two days?"

Zhu Zhen hurriedly yelled: "Sister Ying, you can be content, but I haven't eaten for half a month, do you think I've lost weight?"

Zhu Wen glared at him, and shouted: "Stop talking nonsense!" Turning to Lu Dongbin, he said, "I've heard about Lu Zhenren's name for a long time, and it's like a thunderbolt. I just wish I didn't have the chance to meet him. Today, I am lucky enough to meet a real person. I hope that Lu Zhenren is here. Hang around for a few more days."

Lu Dongbin said: "It's rare that General Zhu is so hospitable, the old man will bother you for a few more days." He thought, it's not bad to eat and drink here, after so many years of running in the rivers and lakes, I'm tired, so it's good to have a rest.

After drinking for three rounds, Zhu Wen said: "I've heard for a long time that Master Lu's swordsmanship is profound, and his supernatural powers are great. He can take the head of a person with a flying sword and go thousands of miles away. I don't know if it's true or not?" Zhu Wen really wanted to know if this Lu Dongbin was real. Are the immortals really as amazing as the legends say?

Lu Dongbin thought to himself: Is there something wrong with you kid?I don’t know where I heard this mess. Although I am an old man, my swordsmanship is good, and although I dare not say that I am number one in the world, I can still be ranked in the top three, but no matter what, I can’t take the head of someone with a flying sword, let alone a thousand miles away. Outside!About ten paces away.

But thinking about it, he said in his mouth: "The rumors in the rivers and lakes are mostly nonsense. People in the world even rumor that I can take heads with flying swords. I think it is very funny. In fact, I have three swords. One sword breaks ignorance and troubles, and the second sword Cutting off ignorance and anger, the three swords cut off ignorance and greed. Only with these three swords can one achieve great success..."

What Zhu Zhen and others heard was cloudy and foggy, but Zhu Wen was really touched, knowing that what Lu Dongbin said was the truth of life, so he hurriedly accepted the teaching with an open mind.Huang Ying was originally from Jianghu, so of course she had heard of Lu Dongbin a little bit, knew that he was a master of swordsmanship, and wanted to ask for advice on two moves, but seeing that Zhu Wen was discussing speculation with Lu Dongbin, she was too embarrassed to interrupt.

Zhu Wen took a chance and asked tentatively, "I wonder if Master Lu knows the way of alchemy?"

Lu Dongbin was taken aback, and thought: This kid is so kind to me, doesn't it mean that he wants me to help him make some medicine for immortality?If I knew how to practice that thing, I wouldn't be living in the rivers and lakes.Feeling a little unhappy, he said: "Life and death are destiny, wealth and honor are in the sky, you can't force it, how majestic was the Emperor Qin and Han Wu back then? In his later years, he worked hard to achieve longevity, but in the end, he still ended up with a pile of loess?"

Zhu Wen said with a smile: "Really Lu has misunderstood, this junior is not looking for some kind of elixir, I just want to ask if you have ever practiced gunpowder when you were always making alchemy? It is the kind of medicine that is easy to catch fire..."
