Legend of the Great Desolation

Chapter 69 Jiang Ziya

Fifty miles away from Chaoge City, the capital of the Shang Dynasty, there is a small village surrounded by green water, with beautiful green scenery, called Songjiazhuang.A few years ago, a family named Jiang Heng came to Songjiazhuang. Jiang Heng was originally the descendant of Shennong, the emperor of the Three Emperors. Because of the decline of his family, he settled down in Songjiazhuang.Later, he married a woman named Song from Songjiazhuang, and gave birth to a son named Jiang Shang, whose name was Ziya. Before Jiang Shang was born, the Song family had a dream of a flying bear in his arms, so Jiang Shang was also named Feixiong.After Jiang Shang was born, he was very different from ordinary children. He usually just sat on a big rock beside the village in a daze.Because of Jiang Huan's dream of the Song family before Jiang Shang was born, he only thought that Jiang Shang was born with extraordinary talents, so he let him.The children in the village only thought that Jiang Shang was weird, and often made fun of him. Only Jiang Shang's cousin, Song Yiren, defended this withdrawn cousin at all times.When Jiang Shang was in his teens, both Jiang Huan and the Song family passed away, and Jiang Shang also heard about cultivating immortals from somewhere, so he came to bid farewell to his cousin Song Yiren.Song Yiren heard Jiang Shang's words, sighed and said: "My cousin is born extraordinary, maybe seeking immortals is the right way for you!" So he didn't stop him.

Jiang Shang is only hearsay about the matter of cultivating immortals, how does he know where to look for it?Fortunately, on the road, I met a fellow Taoist named Shen Gongbao. Shen Gongbao is a straightforward person who also wholeheartedly seeks the way.Jiang Shang and Shen Gongbao hit it off right away, and they made an appointment to pray together.Shen Gongbao had traveled in the wild for a long time and had seen a lot, so he said: "These days, I heard the sage Yuqing from the Yuxu Palace in Kunlun Mountains expounding on the teachings of Yuan Tianzun, announcing that the gate of the prehistoric would be opened, and that he would recruit those who are destined to be disciples. Waiting for Mo Ruo to go to Kunlun Mountain to seek Taoism, maybe he will be attracted by a sage." Jiang Shang had no choice but to turn around with Shen Gongbao and run towards Kunlun Mountain!

Inside the Yuxu Palace in Kunlun Mountains.Yuan Tianzun, a sage of Yuqing, knows that 3000 years have passed, and the deification of the gods discussed by the saints is coming, and the person who will replace the gods will also be born.The person who conferred the gods was attracted by the list of innate spiritual treasures and the whipping of the gods. Since then, he has come to Kunlun Mountain to learn from a teacher, but he has to do something himself.So there was a matter of announcing the flood and opening the mountain gate.This night, Yuan Tianzun was meditating in retreat.Suddenly, a golden light flashed on the Xiantian Lingbao Conferred God List and God Whip next to him, and the original thought moved, but with a smile on his face, he called the Baihe boy beside him to have a face-to-face conversation. "Tong'er, go to the foot of the mountain to meet the two who came to apprentice!" Yuan Yuan Tianzun said to Baihe Tongzi.yes sir! "Baihe Tongzi responded, and went down the mountain under the command.

Boy Baihe came down to the mountain, but he saw two people walking in the mountain in the moonlit night, he thought to himself: Master asked me to come and pick up the man who made the God of Heaven, but now there are two people, what should I do?Boy Baihe secretly thought that it would be better to take both of them up the mountain and let the master identify them himself.So, he showed up and wanted to pick up the two of them up the mountain.Jiang Shang and Shen Gongbao also came this time, it was a fluke, but they really alarmed the saint.Immediately, I was so excited that I followed Boy Baihe up the mountain.Seeing that the Baihe Boy had brought two of them, Yuanyuan was also taken aback, but he thought about the matter thoroughly at the moment.So he said to Jiang Shang and Shen Gongbao who were kneeling on the ground: "You two are considered to be destined to explain the teachings of my Yuxu Palace, so come into my sect together. Jiang Shang is older, so he is a senior brother!" The two were flattered and hurriedly knelt down three times Knock nine times, and do the great ceremony of worshiping the teacher.After Yuanyuan accepted the two as apprentices, he ordered his disciple Nanji Xianweng to pass on the art on his behalf.Nanji Xianweng tried his best to teach the two of them with kindness in his heart. The strange thing is that Jiang Shang's comprehension of Yuqing's Immortal Art is extremely low, but he has a lot of insights into some military tactics and maneuvers; Shen Gongbao is just the opposite. , rose to the early stage of Earth Immortal in a short time.The Antarctic fairy reported this matter to Yuanyuan, why didn't Yuanyuan understand the reason?So he told the Antarctic fairy to let Jiang Ziya choose on his own, stop teaching Shen Gongbao Yuqing's immortal method, and order him to travel around the prehistoric world!

After Jiang Ziya didn't make much progress in cultivating Taoism, he turned his attention to the art of war and formation.In the blink of an eye, 40 years passed quickly.One day, Jiang Ziya Jiang Ziya was practicing the method of arranging the formation, and suddenly Baihe boy came to say that the original Tianzun wanted to see Jiang Ziya.Hearing Yuan Tianzun summoned him, Jiang Ziya didn't dare to neglect, so he quickly put down what he was doing and went to Yuxu Palace to meet Yuan Yuan Tianzun.After entering the main hall, "Disciple Jiang Shang pays respects to Master, may Master live forever." Jiang Shang knelt down and said respectfully.The original Tianzun said: "You are born with a low life, and it is difficult to achieve immortality. You can only enjoy the wealth and honor in the world. Shangtang is exhausted, and Fengming Xiqi Zhou Dynasty should be prosperous. You go down the mountain to help the Ming Lord. As a general, you will not It is in vain that you practiced on the mountain for 40 years, and Yuxu Palace is not the place where you live for a long time, so you can clean it up early and go down the mountain.

"Jiang Ziya's complexion changed drastically when he heard the words, and he knelt down and begged: "Master, this disciple is dedicated to the Tao, but the wealth and honor in the world is not what I think.Years of hard work, this disciple can be regarded as somewhat successful today, I hope the master will show mercy and take back his life.The disciples are willing to practice asceticism in the mountains, but they will not dare to covet the wealth and honor in the world of mortals. I hope the master will record it. "Yuan Tianzun shook his head and said: "You have such a destiny, but you can't go against it? " Then he took out the magic whip and handed it to Jiang Ziya and said: "Take this treasure first and use it later. " Seeing Jiang Ziya's reluctance to leave, the Antarctic fairy stepped forward and said: "Ziya!The opportunity is rare, and the time must not be lost. Moreover, the number of days has been fixed, and it is difficult to escape.Although you are going down the mountain, when you are successful, you will have the day to go up the mountain. Jiang Ziya had no choice but to pack up his things and prepare to go down the mountain. Jiang Ziya bid farewell to his master, knelt down on the tunnel and said, "I will take the teacher's decree to go down the mountain. I don't know what the future will be when I go. I still hope that the master will give me some pointers." "Yuan Tianzun said: "You can go at ease, if you have difficulties in the future, as a teacher, you should send someone to help, and you can also go up the mountain to ask for help. "After reassuring, he kowtowed three times in a row to Yuan Tianzun and went down the mountain.

After Jiang Ziya went down the mountain, he went to Chaoge. After all, there was nowhere to go now, and his righteous brother Song Yiren was still there.Soon Jiang Ziya came to the boundary of Songjiazhuang. Following the route in his memory, Jiang Ziya found the home of his friend Song Yiren.After all, we haven't seen each other for 40 years. Looking at Nuo Da's mansion in a blink of an eye, Jiang Ziya hesitated. Is this Song Yiren's home? When I came to open it, it seemed that Song Yiren was not very rich!At this time, a man dressed as a servant came out of the gate.After Jiang Ziya asked for a while, he was sure that this was the queen, and if there was any trouble, the boy would let him know.After a while, Jiang Ziya heard a voice saying: "Where is Brother Ziya, take me to see him!" Not long after the voice landed, an old man about 75 years old came out with an excited face.
