Rebirth of the Great Desolation: I am Red Cloud

Chapter 97
In the human world, Shang Tang has been in charge of the human regime for more than 500 years. The human emperor Geng Ding won the ancestor Fuyin, and has been on the throne for more than ten years.On this day, in the early court of Geng Ding, a grand master on duty said: "On the bank of the Weishui River, it rained heavily for several days, and the river flowed backwards, rushing across countless fertile fields, and all around the river bank became river swamps, causing countless villagers to be displaced and homeless. You can return, and come to Chaoge in groups to avoid disasters, so please ask the court to open the granary to relieve the victims, to show the thoughts of the Celestial Dynasty, and then send craftsmen to clear the river to relieve the worries of the refugees."

Hearing that there were refugees who were displaced, Geng Ding poured into the court song, and immediately joined the courtiers, issued a royal order, opened the granary, cleared the river, and rescued the victims.Outside Chaoge City, countless refugees swarmed in groups, begging for food in order to survive.

However, it is said that there is a Songjiazhuang [-] miles outside Chaoge City. The owner of the village is surnamed Song Taigong and has a son in his sixties. The farmer opened the granary and took in countless refugees.Among the refugees taken in by Song Taigong, a pregnant woman, whose husband's family name was Jiang, lost her life when the flood broke out.Song Taigong saw that she was pitiful, so he took the pregnant woman in and arranged a side room for her to live in.

On this day, since the morning, it has been raining lightly in the sky, and the rain is getting bigger and bigger. By noon, it has become a pouring trend, and the sky is constantly flashing with thunder and lightning.Song Taigong sat in the courtyard after dinner, and a servant reported that the pregnant women he took in had been howling since noon, fearing that they were about to give birth.Song Taigong was kind, and hurriedly arranged for the farmer to invite Mrs. Wen to help her give birth. He took his wife to the outer room of the side room to wait for news.

Song Taigong was waiting outside, worried about this poor girl in his heart, he was irritable, he couldn't help looking up to the sky and sighed, but saw the stars twinkling in the sky, and there were countless stars shining in this small courtyard, which surprised Song Taigong No way, the pouring rain keeps falling, and the dark clouds should cover the sky. Why are these stars shining brightly in the sky and twinkling non-stop.

Just when I was feeling suspicious, I saw the stars in the sky move together, and red lights flashed from the top of the side room. The water vapor under the red light showed the image of a winged beast. I don't know its name, and it circled endlessly. He hurriedly greeted his wife and said, "Look at the red light on the roof." The wife looked up, but she saw nothing unusual, so she said to Song Taigong, "I'm afraid your eyes are dazzled, you look good, there is no red light." Hearing this, the grandfather became even more suspicious, and couldn't help but looked up again, but there was indeed no red light. While he was thinking about it, a flash of lightning flashed across the sky, accompanied by deafening thunder, illuminating the entire sky. After the thunder, there was a burst of crisp The cry of the baby came from the side room, and after a while, a steady woman came out to congratulate Song Taigong, saying that the woman had given birth to a son, but the woman had been hungry for a long time and her body was weak, so it might be difficult live.

When Song Taigong heard it, he didn't care about the suspicion of men and women, and took his wife into the side room. Seeing the pale face of the woman, she stared at Song Taigong, pointed to the baby beside her, and wanted to say What can't be said.Song Taigong knew that the woman was on the verge of exhaustion, but she couldn't let go of the baby, she still held her breath, her eyes followed the woman's hand and looked at the baby. The baby was very white and tender, with eyes Constantly looking at this strange world, the lanugo on the top of the head is not yet full, and there are constant red lights flashing. When Song Taigong saw the baby, combined with what he saw in the courtyard just now, he knew that the baby was born. The body, sent by thunder and lightning, is probably extraordinary and has a lot of background, so he said to the woman: "I take this child as my adopted son, and I will definitely raise him up. You can go with peace of mind." Song Taigong had just finished speaking. , the woman showed a faint smile, and when she dropped her arm, she was exhausted.

Song Taigong was holding the baby, and he was also happy in his heart. He quietly buried the abnormality of the baby in his heart. He named the baby Jiang Shang, named Ziya, and treated him like a parent. Come and nurse this baby.

Song Taigong paid great attention to moral cultivation. When Jiang Shang was three or four years old, he let him and his son Song Yiren learn all kinds of knowledge from Mr. Zhuangzhong. , and often asked my husband some weird questions, just like that, Jiang Shang spent ten years in the school with his elder brother, growing up from a baby with no lanugo to a handsome young man, but this Jiang Shang didn't know what to do, he was able to read and write Ten years later, no matter how much Song Taigong and Song Yiren persuaded him, they would stop going to the school. In desperation, Song Taigong arranged for the farmer to take Jiang Shang to work in farming, which can be regarded as self-sufficient.

Spring is coming and autumn is coming, Jiang Shang left the school, and has been farming in Songjiazhuang for five years. At this time, Song Taigong is nearly eighty years old. He can be regarded as a long-lived man among the human race, but the old body is not as good as one year. , and finally reached the point where he was bedridden by the wind and rain, and within a month, he died.After Jiang Shang sent Song Taigong along with his elder brother Yiren, his whole person seemed to have changed. He didn't say a few words all day, while keeping his filial piety for Song Taigong, while helping Yiren organize the household.

Perhaps it was Song Taigong's blessing in the sky. After Yiren and Jiang Shang took over the Songjiazhuang, the weather was smooth, the harvest was bumper year after year, the rent was affordable, and the loan was receivable. However, the Songjiazhuang became more and more prosperous, and Song Yiren also accumulated a lot of money.I don’t think the three-year deadline for keeping filial piety for Song Taigong has passed. Song Yiren married a woman from a neighboring village, but whenever he wanted to match Jiang Shang, he was rejected by Jiang Shang. Sometimes Song Yiren chased him closely. Jiang Shang So he went to live in the farmer's house on the grounds of checking the farmer's house, which made Song Yiren helpless, so he had to let him be alone.

On this day, Jiang Shang came to Song Yiren's door early. Song Yiren was surprised. He didn't know why Jiang Shang came here so early in the morning. After straightening his clothes, he knelt down and bowed to Song Yiren three times: "Brother, I have been greatly favored by my adoptive father since I was born, and was raised by my adoptive father. I feel ashamed, and because my adoptive father passed away, I deeply feel the pain of life. Today, my adoptive father's filial piety has expired, so I plan to travel outside to find a moral person, so as to liberate myself in the immortal way."

Song Yiren knew that Jiang Shang was born with visions, now he was silent when he heard what Jiang Shang said, and he sighed after a long while: "I heard from my father in the early years that when my brother was born, his body was full of visions. , not something in the pool, even if my virtuous brother has the intention of seeking immortality, I can't stop it, but you and I grew up together since we were young, brothers, this time you go on a long journey, I don't know when you will Gui, no matter what, I have to let my brother serve the food and drink, and bid farewell to my virtuous brother."

Jiang Shang was determined to leave early, but after drinking a glass of farewell wine, he took the package and luggage from Song Yiren, bowed deeply to Song Yiren, and drifted away.

Jiang Shang left Songjiazhuang, traveled all the way west, traveled all over the mountains, and wanted to find a virtuous person to learn art from a teacher, but the strange mountains and dangerous peaks, how could he climb to the top as an ordinary person, in desperation, he had to wander among the mountains. fruit.This Jiang Shang is also really persevering, regardless of how many tigers, leopards, snakes and insects there are in the mountains, he searched from mountain to mountain, and he was determined not to worship famous teachers and never turn back. After several years, Jiang Shang wasted his time on the road , but still not discouraged, I keep encouraging myself, and I will definitely find a famous teacher.

On this day, Jiang Shang came to Yishan, went through all kinds of dangers, and finally climbed to the top of the mountain, but he searched for more than half a month, let alone a virtuous person, but there was not even a human figure. The bloodshot blisters made me sigh involuntarily. I found a huge stone, put my luggage under it, and lay down. I kept thinking about my experiences over the years. When I was tired and hungry, I became fascinated. I fell asleep vaguely, and in my sleep I seemed to hear two people talking on the boulder above my head, saying that the Taoism on Kunlun Mountain is mysterious, and I was lucky enough to hear the wonderful sound of heaven and earth this time, but it was a rare opportunity, so I took a break to hurry on my way wait.

Jiang Shang seemed to be thinking in a daze, jumped up, and hurriedly climbed onto the boulder, but he couldn't help but feel a sense of loss when he saw no one, but he firmly remembered Kunlun Mountain in his heart. This place, with a goal in mind, naturally gave rise to hope again, hurriedly packed up, and continued to go down the mountain.

When he came down to the mountain, Jiang Shang inquired about the location of Kunlun Mountain when he met everyone, but he was not discouraged by all ordinary people, who knew the holy place of the immortal family, and he kept inquiring, and his hard work paid off. Cang Cang's old man found out the location of Kunlun Mountain, but it was in the far west. Jiang Shang set foot on the road to the west again, and after several years, he finally came to the foot of Kunlun Mountain.

In a grass pavilion at the foot of Kunlun Mountain, Jiang Shang saw a young man with a tiger body, his complexion was scorched yellow, and he was carrying a Xingxiang behind him, his eyes were shining brightly.Seeing Jiang Shang enter the pavilion, the man kept looking at Jiang Shang.Jiang Shang has been walking on the road for more than ten years, and the clothes on his body have long been torn, like a beggar. Seeing this young man staring at him, he felt very embarrassed, and he couldn't help but raised his hand and said: "Brother, you are polite." , my next one is Chaoge Jiang Shang, who has been away from home to visit famous teachers for more than ten years, and his clothes are dilapidated, which made my brother laugh at me."

Seeing Jiang Shang's polite words, the young man's eyes flashed away, and he also raised his hand to return the salute: "My name is Shen Gongbao, and I came to Kunlun Mountain to find a famous teacher. Since you and I have the same purpose, let's take a short rest. You can go together." The two of them took a rest between the grass pavilions.

On the Kunlun Mountains, in Yuxu Palace, Yuanshi was about to start a catastrophe due to the heaven and earth, and the disciples of the sect had to go through the catastrophe before they could achieve the immortal way. Therefore, after signing the list of gods, they stopped preaching and let the disciples go back to the mountain to practice day and night. In the Yuxu Palace, he realized the way of heaven. He was wandering through the emptiness and comprehended the way of heaven. His mind moved slightly, causing Yuanshi to turn around from the sedation. Yuanshi couldn't help but feel strange. The person who has been through the calamity has come to my Kunlun Mountains. It can be seen that I have a long luck in teaching and teaching, and the way of heaven favors me, so I will send this person who should be calamity into my door. , My explanation and teaching can be preserved." Yuan Shi thought about it, and called the white crane boy who served beside him and said: "There are apprentices at the foot of the mountain, you can go and bring them to see me."

The white crane boy came down to the mountain, and saw two apprentices and seekers in the grass pavilion, but he didn't know who Yuanshi was talking about, so he had no choice but to bring them both to Yuxu Palace.

Yuan Shi looked through the past and the future with his spiritual thoughts from above the futon, slowly opened his eyes, and glanced at the two apprentices who were kneeling on the ground, but they were the ones who should be robbed. Although the clothes were tattered, one was righteous , showing the momentum of a flying bear behind him, wearing a red light body shield, but his life is thin, the immortal way is difficult to achieve, and the divine way does not exist, so he can only receive the blessings of the world, but it is a pity.The other was neatly dressed, but with leopard eyes and a sinister and cunning look on his face, which faintly divided the luck of the seeker next to him. Thinking that under the Dao of Heaven, Wuji generates Tai Chi, and Tai Chi divides yin and yang. The two happened to be one yin and one yang, one positive and the other negative, one was upright and shining, the other was full of sinister, sweet-mouthed and sword-like, a person who would use any means to achieve his goals, but they were both people who came out of the sky to respond to disasters. It's ridiculous.In this way, it should be included in the sect, and it will be used for killing and robbery.

Yuan Shi made up his mind, so he accepted Jiang Shang and Shen Gongbao into De Chanjiao's sect, and did not teach them Taoism or fairy art. He just let them have the name of Chanjiao's disciples, and carried water with many monks in the mountain. Pine, grow peaches, light a fire, fan a tree, make alchemy, chat to pass the day, and wait for the time of killing and robbery.
