As far as the gods are concerned,
Who can get rid of the reins of fame?
Today, I even read the legend of Cloud Gate,
The breeze is cool through the body.
It is said that in the early years of Emperor Wen of Sui, there was a rich man, surnamed Li Mingqing, who lived in Qingzhou City and opened a dyeing workshop for generations. Although the broker's family, the clan is also prosperous, and there are a total of five or six thousand dings, all of whom have the ability to make money with their bare hands. Therefore, the family is rich, and it is called Li Banzhou far and near.
Among the clans, only Li Qingnian is the most respected and promoted as the patriarch. That Li Qing is benevolent by nature, no matter whether he is close to each other in the clan, he is affectionate, and he treats it as a general, and there is no difference in heart. For this matter, there is no one who does not respect him. Every year on his birthday, I go to buy gifts and renew my life with him. The clan is already big, but it is competitive, and they are each looking for different antiquities to play with and splendid silk to give.
He was frugal and blessed in his life, and refused to spend too much, and he would hide it in the earthen treasury in the future, and pile it up year by year, and countless of them.
There is only one thing, and I will not hesitate to do so. What kind of thing is your way? He has done good deeds since he was a child, benefiting people and things, and he has also admired the good way of immortals, and he has given a thousand yuan in charity. If you meet a wandering Taoist priest, you can stay at home to make offerings, learn some Danshu, and talk about internal cultivation. Who would have thought that group of people were all singles, blindly talking about cheating money, how could they have real knowledge. If you have paid for a few things in vain, you can't get one of them. However, despite this, his sincerity never changed, burning incense and meditating every day, cultivating his temperament and mind, and having the idea of being born.
He was exactly seventy years old, and those children and grandchildren had been there two months ago, and said: "Seventy years are rare in life, and they must be no more than ordinary birthdays, and each of them should find a few strange gifts for his longevity, and wish him a long and immortal." ”
Li Qing also expected that the children and grandchildren would inevitably be like this, so he set up a banquet in advance, divided them one by one, and invited them to the banquet one by one.
Because he said to the people, "Thanks to your diligence, each of you can live, and give me gifts every year, which accumulate to nearly 10,000 yuan, and my clothes and utensils are extremely luxurious! However, it has been stored in the earthen storehouse, and many of it has been decayed without being examined. Wouldn't it be a pity for you to wait for money and be my dung! Today, fortunately, Tiancao has not yet recorded my soul, and my birthday is approaching, so I expect you to inevitably manage the birthday celebration, which is not even my original intention. So tell me in advance, don't do it!"
Children and grandchildren all said: "The birthday celebration ceremony has been called longevity since ancient times." Besides, at the age of 70, how many times can I have a life of filial piety, if we don't celebrate, how can we show humility and filial piety? This is rare!"
Li Qingdao: "Since it is difficult for you to get the idea, how can you just give me what I want in the future?"
子孙辈欣然道：“愿闻尊命！”
Li Qingdao: "Ten days before my birthday, I will give me a hundred feet of hemp rope for each finger, which is about 50,000 or 60,000 zhang, so as to extend my life, wouldn't it be more long-term!"
When everyone heard this, they secretly called it strange, and asked in unison: "Taigong pays it, dare not obey the order, but I don't know what to do with him?"
Li Qing said with a smile: "And when you wait for all the things to be delivered, and then let you know about it, you can't say it lightly now." ”
After the sons and grandsons received Li Qing's payment, they really passed one to ten, ten to hundred, and all handed over a hundred feet of hemp rope, and paid it before their birthdays, and the ground was stacked high, and it became a rope mountain. But I don't know what use he wants with all these ropes.
Yuanlai is ten miles away from the south of Qingzhou City, there is a mountain called Yunmen Mountain, the top of the mountain is divided into two, like an axe split. People in Qingzhou City, but to the south, all see this mountain flying clouds and birds, passing by in the cave, all of them can be counted. The laity is also called the splitting mountain.
But in the middle of the top of the mountain, there was a big cave, and the hole was not much deep. There are also good things, who throw down large stones, and never hear any sound, so that there is no bottom in the way of the people.
I saw that after Li Qing received the hemp rope, he sent someone to the mountain close to the mouth of the cave, erected two big pegs, and put them on the wheel.
The family called for the bamboo family fire, made a sturdy bamboo basket, and went to the copper shop to buy hundreds of large and small copper bells, and I don't know what to do?
The children and grandchildren all came to ask, and Li Qingfang replied: "I said that I will finally make you know it, so I will hide it? I have been good since I was a child, and now I have gained nothing after more than 50 years. I am seventy years old, and I have lived in the world, but only two or three years, while my siblings are still strong, I want to borrow the hemp rope you have sent on my birthday, with four, hanging the four corners of the big bamboo basket, and the other one in the middle, tie the copper bell, and wait for me to sit in the basket, but slowly twist down. If there is some place where I am not going, and you see me shaking the rope in the middle, or hear the bell ringing, then you may put me still on the coil. In case there is a fate, you have to meet the gods, and you have to come back and report to you. ”
Before he finished speaking, he saw his children and grandchildren kowtow and admonish: "No, no! In this big cave, don't say how many mountain spirits, wood charms, poisonous snakes and monsters are hidden, but the black stench also kills people." How can an elderly person forbid this interest?"
Li Qingdao: "I have made up my mind, and I will die without regrets! If you don't allow me, you will definitely flee without permission and be dropped from the air." No hemp rope bamboo basket, never come out of the day. ”
There are also old people in it, who know that he is a stubborn person in his life, so he said: "It is better to be respectful than to obey your fate." It's just such a big thing, how can you go quietly, you have to tell your relatives and go to Yunmen Mountain to see each other off. It also spreads all over the world, and it is okay to have a good talk!"
Li Qingdao said: "This makes it." ”
The descendants of the Li family, who had five or six thousand, went to inform their relatives and came to pay their respects. It's only one person, but it's not tens of thousands of people. On the day of Li Qing's birthday, they all showed drum music, brought wine and food, and held Li Qing together, and went to Yunmen Mountain. With the people who went to see it, I don't know how many, almost all Qingzhou City was empty. After a while, they arrived at the top of Cloud Gate Mountain. Everyone raised their eyes and looked around, and sure enough, it was a good situation. But see:
The peaks are arched, and the columns are surrounded. The sound of the flowing spring is quiet, and the dense grass is blurred. The strange trees on the cliff side are towering, and the strange flowers on the rocks reflect the sun. The mountain trail is smoky, the wild color crosses the bridge and the green mist is near; the situation is far away, and the pine sound is separated from the water and the white clouds are connected. But hearing the dew falling from the forest, Xiao Xiao only listened to Ye Yinfeng.
那竹篮绳索等件，俱已整备停当。
All the relatives and relatives stepped forward to offer wine.
There is also a senior person in the middle of the said: "Old in-laws, your good heart is so decisive, you must be a person on the road of immortals, and you have no other worries, but I have to be old when I do things, and I have no regrets." I think that no one has ever gone down to this kind of black hole, so how can I throw the body of a thousand gold lightly? Today, if there is a bamboo basket rope, why not take a dog first, put it down and look at it. If this dog is fine, wouldn't it be perfect to send a clever family member down to see what miracles are there, and then send the old in-laws' house down when he comes up to tell him?"
Li Qing said with a smile: "Inherit the teaching, inherit the teaching! It's just that those who ask for the Tao will die for a long time before they can be pitied by the immortals, or they may be willing to accept them as disciples." In this cave, according to legend, it is the seventh cave of the immortals, and it is not as good as arsenic poison, how can I try his benefits? It does not eliminate the worries of high-ranking relatives. The old man has four slang words, leave here and don't laugh!"
众亲眷齐道：“愿闻珠玉。 ”
Li Qing recited a poem casually, and the poem said:
The long-term remnant of life is like nothing,
Wave your hand to open the door, and you will not be alone.
Laughing at the pot Gong once got the way,
There are hanging pots in the market.
After listening to this poem, everyone nodded and sighed, and reluctantly relieved: "The old in-laws are as strong as their hearts, and I hope that they will meet immortals once they go." ”
Li Qingdao: "Thank you for praying, and see what the old man's fate is." ”
Then he got up and bowed to the air twice, then went to sit in the bamboo basket, waved goodbye to all the relatives and grandchildren, and said no more, and put down the hemp rope one by one.
Mo said that all the relatives and grandchildren were all pale one by one, and even the people who watched were stunned, shook their heads and said: "This old man is not good at home, but he is delusional, and he goes to the deep cave to seek immortals!
Li Qing went down this time, I don't know when he was born?
Immortals are made by mortals,
It's just that mortals refuse to cultivate.
But he said that Li Qing didn't know how many thousands of zhang he put down, and when he felt that he was at the bottom, he climbed out of the bamboo basket to see what immortal traces were there.
How do you know that the black hole at the bottom of the cave is no longer high, and there is water underground, which is slippery and rotten. I haven't taken a step yet, and I fell early.
The seventy-year-old man, who had a lot of strength to earn it, flashed down again. After only two exchanges, Li Qing fell into a faint streak.
The relatives and grandchildren above, looking at the evening of the sun, did not see the twine in the middle moving, and did not hear the brass bell ringing, they all guessed: "This old man is touched by the stench of dampness, and he is not guaranteed." ”
And when he put the roller on the bamboo basket to look at it, he saw an empty basket, and Li Qing was gone.
At that time, he was busy, so he had to put down the bamboo basket again. After holding it for a while, it was still an empty basket. The group of people who watched, some sighed and some laughed, and they all walked away.
The children and grandchildren just cried loudly into the cave, complaining: "We tried hard to dissuade us, but we refused to listen, and we wanted to go down." A man of seventy is not a man of life, but he dies when he dies, and he also leaves a skeleton for us to bury him in a coffin. Now that the corpse is gone, what is going on?"
There is also a master who said: "The life and death of a person is nothing more than a large number." Today's birthday, the day he has exhausted his count, he will remain at home, and he will not be dead. Besides, his ambition is so that he has fulfilled his will to die, and he should have no regrets. Although there is no corpse, he is well dressed, why don't you go back tonight and invite a few Taoist priests with mana to come here again tomorrow morning and summon his soul. Only burying the clothes is also a burial method for the ancients. I heard that Emperor Xuanyuan had gained the avenue and had ascended to heaven in Dinghu, leaving a sword and two shoes, which were packed in a coffin and buried in Qiaoshan. I also know that this old man is not a god, and he will teach us to make an empty mound with him. Just cry and cry at the mouth of the cave, won't you be confused!"
The children and grandchildren had no choice but to agree, wipe away their tears, and pack up and go home. Come back to the top of the mountain tomorrow and summon the spirits back. The general seating and coffin are rarely all relatives and relatives come to pay respects. After seven seven and forty-nine days, the grave was not buried, and it was not a problem.
Let's say that Li Qing was stunned by these two falls, and only then did he wake up and turn around, and he went to look carefully.
The bottom of the cave is not very big, only one zhang wide, surrounded by stone walls, there is nothing strange. Besides, the mud under his feet was so slippery that he could not walk, so he had to sit down on the bamboo basket, and think about dragging the rope and ringing the brass bell, and wait for them to hang it again. Stretching out his hand and touching it all over the place, the bamboo basket is gone, calling and shouting, flying and flying can't fly, there is really a way to come, there is no way to go to the day, teach Li Qing how to deal with it?
I had to sit cross-legged on the ground. I don't know how many days, but I feel hungry and thirsty, I feel sad for a while, thinking that the ancients chewed snow and swallowed felt, and saved their lives, there is no snow and no felt here, only mud at hand, so I grabbed a handful and swallowed it.
How do you know that the fairy cave house, every three thousand years before it opens, the bottom bursts out of the mud, called "green mud", it is specially cooked and eaten with the immortals, there is also some taste, can quench hunger and thirst.
After a few bites, I felt better in my spirits. But when I went to take a closer look, I saw that there was a small hole under the stone wall, which was not more than two feet high.
I thought to myself: "Just sit in the mud, what's the end! There are no people who are dead, and I don't care about any poisonous snakes and monsters in here, and I will crawl in to see the whereabouts." ”
Just because of this, the road of the black and boundless head is directly taught, and another realm is seen; Precisely:
Hades did not note that he was dying today,
Is there no other way to the cave?
Li Qing disregarded his life, burrowed into the pussy, climbed for about six or seven miles, and felt that the inside was gradually more than two feet taller, and he couldn't stand upright left and right, just crawling on the ground.
The old man didn't know that the day was dark, so he slept when he was tired, and ate a few bites of green mud when he was hungry.
After crawling for more than 20 miles, I saw that the stars in front of me seemed to be a little light, and I thought, "And joy has a way out." ”
Eat some more green mud, cheer up, and drill forward. Out of the hole, but see the green mountains, green trees, another realm.
Li Qing got up and stretched his waist, stood on his feet, straightened his clothes, and thanked him: "I'm ashamed!
Following the main road, walking for fourteen or fifteen miles, my stomach gradually became hungry, and there was no one on the road to sell food. I always have to buy it, and I don't have any money around my waist, and I haven't brought some of the green mud out of the hole, so I can't see if I can't walk.
I saw the indigo green water on the side of the road, covered with chrysanthemums on both sides, and went to hold some water to eat. How do you know that this water is not easy to eat, the fairy family is called "Juquan", which can prolong life but get sick. After Li Qingcai ate a few bites, he felt refreshed, and his hands and feet were brisk.
After walking for more than ten miles, I suddenly saw that the top of the tree was exposed to the roof ridge made of glazed tiles, and the gold was shining, and I didn't know where it was? There are nine floors, each layer is about a zhang high, and there is no slope, so you have to climb the vine and hang it up. The door was closed again, and he didn't dare to knock without permission, so he had to hold his breath.
It wasn't until the first Buddha was born and the second Buddha ascended to heaven that a boy in Tsing Yi opened the door and shouted, "Li Qing, why are you here?"
Li Qing hurriedly kowtowed to the ground and said: "Qingzhou dyer Li Qing is not a mortal, he knocks on the cave mansion, and begs to be accepted as a disciple, life and death are unforgettable!"
The boy laughed and said, "How can I take you in? ”
Not long after the boy in Tsing Yi entered, he came out to lure Li Qing in.
Under the jade pier, look up at the gorgeous wall like a heavenly palace, a good place to go. But see:
Zhu Yong is shining in the sun, and Biwa is in the sky. From the hundred-foot glazed treasure hall, the nine-layer white jade Yao platform. Faintly carved beams engraved with tortoiseshell, rows of embroidered columns inlaid with coral. Lin palace Beique, the eaves are long and the colorful clouds float; Yuyu Qiong Building, the painting building contains the fog every time. The curved fence is surrounded by agate, and the deep curtain is hung with pearls. Qingluan Xuanhe dances in pairs, and Bailu Danlin swims against each other. Thousands of flowers bloom in the wild, and the birds in the forest are quiet.
When Li Qing went to the hall to look, he saw an immortal chief sitting in the center, wearing a jasper lotus crown on his head, wearing a golden feather coat, wearing a yellow silk around his waist, wearing a vermilion on his feet, holding Ruyi in his hands, and having the appearance of the eight extremes of fugue. On both sides of the east and west, there are four people sitting on each side, all of them with different colors of clothing. The hall is full of auspicious clouds, the fragrance is dense, it is really silent, spotless, so serious. Li Qing stepped forward, kowtowed one by one, and still told the plot of risking death to see it.
I saw the immortal chief in the middle and said, "Li Qing, you shouldn't have come here, why did you go here without permission?" I don't have your seat here, go back quickly!"
Li Qing wept and said: "I, Li Qing, have a good way in my life, and I have never had some effect. Today, I am fortunate to have obtained the fairy palace, and when I meet the immortal chief, how can I go back empty-handed? I am already a seventy-year-old person, and I have not lived much longer when I go back to the left and right, can I still do it again? I would rather die at the foot of the stairs, and I will not go back. ”
The immortal chief just shook his head and refused to allow it.
But he had to say to him next to him: "Although Li Qing should not be here, he is pious, and he is pitiful! If I don't keep him now, I will only say that the immortals can't cultivate in the end." Besides, in my Dharma, I originally thought that saving people was the first merit, so if I took him in, if he couldn't be taught, it would not be too late to send him back!"
The immortal chief nodded and said, "Okay, let him stay in the west ear room for a while." ”
Li Qing hurriedly thanked him.
One end walked into the ear room, and the other thought to himself: "If I don't have some Dao qi, how can I be a disciple of the immortal family?" It's just that I made an appointment with my children and grandchildren, and when I met an immortal, I had to give a leave to go back and report to you and others. Now I have repeatedly mourned, and I have to be persuaded by these immortals next to me to take me in, why should I please go back again? If I touch him and scold me for not being clean, how can I do it? And sit quietly with peace of mind, and after a while, I will make another district. ”
That Li Qing walked to the west ear room, and before he sat down, he saw an old man come in from outside the door, and said: "Penglai Mountain Luming Guan Ding Zunshi has just arrived, and the Queen Mother of the West has specially opened the Yaochi banquet, please go with Qunzhen." ”
There is no one furnishings, and there are already nine cranes driving the car, neatly and neatly, and arranging His Highness.
At that time, the immortals in the middle were in front, and the eight on both sides were behind, and they stepped out of the hall.
Then Li Qing inevitably waited in the Danqi with the group of boys in Tsing Yi.
I saw the immortal chief looking at Li Qing and said: "You are here, if you want to watch the mountains and play in the water, you can be free and unrestrained;
With that, each stepped on the crane and rose into the air. Naturally, there are Yunxia supporting, and the pipe is noisy, which cannot be explained.
How do you know that Li Qing looked out of the window under the ear room and saw the scenery on three sides. Phantom birds and strange birds, there is an endless sound at four o'clock, different grass and strange flowers, and the color of Changchun in eight sections. It's not enough to really watch, but it's more than enough to play. Gradually, when I turned around, I saw the north window obliquely hidden, and thought: "Since it is beautiful on three sides, why can't you see it with a north window?" There must be something very strange, so you don't look at me." Now that the Immortal Chief has gone to the meeting, I don't know how many journeys there are, so I may not be able to return, and when I quietly open to take a look, the Immortal Chief will know?"
He stepped forward and gently pushed his hand, and with a bang, the window had already opened. If you look closely, you can see that there is something strange going on! A Qingzhou city is under the north window. Seeing the people in the state, I remember it vividly. When he saw that the tall house where he lived was gradually ruined, and the neighboring branches of the clan were gradually scattered, he sighed with emotion: "Why is it that my family is like this when I have been out for a few days?" As the saying goes: 'If there is no owner in the house, the pillar of the house will fall.' If I had known this, I would not have been here, for why should I have made my children so unsuccessful that I would have ruined my doorway. ”
I didn't feel that I was suddenly in my heart.
Before the sigh was over, the immortal elders had already returned, and they could only hear the palace shouting: "Li Qing!
Li Qing hurriedly closed the north window and walked to the bottom of the stairs.
The immortal in the middle said angrily: "I will pay you not to steal the north window, why did you disobey the order and open it without authorization?" Therefore I refuse to take him in, because your heart is constantly in the dust. How can I still tolerate you here today, so that I can go back quickly, and I won't have to go to my cave!"
Li Qing had no words to answer, just kowtowed and pleaded guilty, and lamented: "I don't know how much suffering I suffered when I came, and my true life was earned by the slightest slightest. Now that I go back, Hugh said that the bamboo basket rope has been twisted by the family, and how can my old man still climb in these more than 30 miles of small tunnels?"
The immortal chief smiled: "Don't worry about this, I have another path to teach someone to guide you out." ”
Then Li Qingfang put down this belly, got up and thanked him and went out.
I saw the first one in the east, and he didn't know what to say to the immortal chief.
The immortal chief called Li Qing: "You come here." ”
Li Qing thought: "It must be like the previous persuasion and took me in." ”
Overwhelmingly pleased. Hurriedly walked around and knelt down and listened to the decree.
You said that the immortal chief called Li Qing back, what did he say? said: "I will send you back, but you have no physiology, how can you live? I have books on the shelf, you can take one at will, if you want to find food and clothing, just look at this book, naturally there is it." ”
Li Qing agreed, and thought in his heart: "Yuanlai Immortal Elder only knows about the things here, not about the things in my Qingzhou County. I had a family of 10,000 dollars, that is, birthday gifts from my children and grandchildren year after year, and there were thousands of them, why did I just come out and have no food to eat when I went back for two days?"
The immortal chief asked, "Do you have a book?"
Li Qingdao: "There is." ”
仙长道:"既有了书,去罢! ”
Li Qingzheng was about to go out, only to see the first one in the west, and he didn't know what to say to the immortal chief.
The immortal chief nodded his head and shouted, "Li Qing, you come here." ”
Li Qing thought, "Didn't you persuade him to take me in this time?"
I still don't.
I saw the immortal chief say: "When you go back, you have to walk a long way before you get home." When you get home, you can't just eat, you can eat enough. ”
There was already a boy, so he took out two big taro and handed them to Li Qing to eat.
Yuanlai is a boiled pebble, just like taro, soft, tender, fragrant and sweet, compared to the green mud at the bottom of the cloud gate, the more delicious.
Then walk over and thank you.
The immortal said: "Li Qing, if you go, it will only be more than seventy years, and you should still be here." But in Qingzhou County, how many children's lives are still on you! You can travel widely and conveniently, and you will be degenerate. I have four verses that will be useful for your life, and you will remember them!"
Verse Cloud:
See the "stone" and walk,
Listen to "Jane" and ask.
Living next to "gold",
"Pei" first and escaped.
Li Qing bowed to this verse again, but taught the boy introduced by Shiyuan to send him back.
I don't know how much path I have walked out of, and I will not lose all the hemp rope, and there will be some danger?
The path guided by the boy of Yuanlai was not the place where he came and went in the old days, but he went around this immortal courtyard and turned upside down the hillside behind him.
And he saw one place, and there was a good white stone, and there many men were striking him.
Li Qing asked, "What is the use of this stone from the Immortal Family?"
The boy said: "This is white jade, because sooner or later there is another respected teacher who should come, so I sent someone to call and be the tenth chair." ”
Li Qing asked, "What is the name and surname of this Venerable Master?"
The boy said: "Even we only hear such things, how do we know? ”
One end said, one head walked, and it also traveled fourteen or fifteen miles, all of which were turtle back roads, towering ancient trees on both sides, with strange flowers and flowers, and endless scenery, so I walked two miles again, and I didn't feel it.
Walking through a high mountain, the path gradually became smaller, and the boy pointed his finger and said: "This is not more than ten miles, it is the north gate of Qingzhou." ”
Li Qingdao: "When I came here the day before yesterday, I went out of the south gate, but why did I enter the north gate today? I grew up in Qingzhou and am 70 years old, so I know that this Yunmen Mountain is surrounded by the state city. But I knew that when I opened the north window, I saw the city of Qingzhou. But I don't know which side is the front road, and the other side is the back road, can you instruct me, wait for me to come back to see the immortal chief in the future, and only hit this road, but don't save a lot of hemp rope to hang it into the cloud gate cave?"
Before he could ask questions, he didn't know that a gust of wind rose, and a big insect jumped out of the ground, pounced on Li Qing, which shocked Li Qing's soul and shouted: "Bitter!" Wretched:
The name has not been ascended to the immortal mansion,
The branch first returns to the tiger's belly.
Speak, let me ask you: taste and smell the ancient legend, the green mud and white stone, is the grain of the immortal family, mortals are eager to meet, if there is a fate to taste it, the disease can not invade, the monster can not approach, the tiger and wolf can not be injured; this Li Qing has been full, and has lived in the cave, although the Taoist heart is not strong, sent back, but he promised him seventy years later, back to the cave, it is clearly a fairy, how to send it in the mouth of the big worm?
The officials should not be in a hurry, stay in the middle and slowly confess.
The big insect is not a tiger that usually eats people, but a divine tiger, who specializes in guarding the mountain with the immortals, and it was the boy who deliberately sent him to frighten Li Qing, only to teach him to get lost, and Yuan Fei hurt his life.
Li Qing died for a long time, and gradually woke up, and only shouted: "Help, help!"
When he slowly struggled to sit up and look, the big worm was gone, and even the boy in Tsing Yi didn't know where to go, so he stumbled and said, "That's it, that's it! This boy must have been eaten by the big worm." Poor, pitiful!"
But he thought again: "That boy is an attendant immortal, and he must also have some immortal energy, how dare the big insect hurt him?" Why didn't you send me home, and left me halfway?"
I was so puzzled that I got up, put my clothes in order, and suddenly looked back, and was surprised again: Why is it that the road from which it came is full of mountains and steep walls, and there is no path at all?
said in his mouth, he was afraid that another big worm would jump out of his heart, but he would not lose this old life.
And run with your own life. I walked about four or five miles, but it was a three-way intersection, and there was no pedestrian to come and go, so I could ask for a letter.
Look at the evening of the day, what will happen if you go on an errand! I was at the wrong place, and suddenly I saw a big stone on a road, and I realized it: "The immortal chief taught me a verse, and there is a saying: 'See the stone and walk.'" "But didn't you teach me to go this way?" Sure enough, I walked four or five miles, and it was already the north gate of Qingzhou.
When I entered the city gate, I felt that the street was still slightly recognizable, but the houses on both sides were all different from the past, and I was unpredictable. It was getting dark again, so I had to rush home. The houses in the Zhijia family have also been changed, but a new gate building has been erected, and the eight-character walls on both sides are not majestic! Li Qing said secretly: "Could it be that you came to the state by mistake?"
Look carefully: "It's like a yamen, and it's just my home." I don't recognize these changes? I want to leave home, only in the Cloud Gate Cave, I don't know how many days I have been in the pavilion, and there are counts. The pussy drilled out of the back, it's always this day, how can there be so many differences? Could it be that when the governor saw that I was not there, he occupied my house for nothing? But he didn't ask the master about everything. It's a pity that it's late today, and I will struggle until tomorrow, enter the pleadings, and deal with him. With your official government, you will have to pay me back the official price. ”
I had to find an inn to rest, and I didn't have any money around Zhengnai, so I couldn't help but take off a piece of clothing and change it for the usual money. I felt that my stomach was full, so I only bought a dime of wine to eat. I went to sleep, and I wondered for a long time, how could I sleep this night?
Li Qing tossed and turned on the bed, sighed to himself, and regretted: "Why should I complain about the immortal elder? He clearly said that I would spend my life when I went back? Teach me to take a book, don't do physiology." And he said that when I returned, I had no food to eat: did not I foresee that the two boiled stones and I had this day? ”
So he went to his sleeve and touched the book, and he was still happy, but now he didn't have time to read it.
When the morning dawn and the house money were repaid, they walked all over the streets of Qingzhou, not to mention that there was no one of the relatives and descendants, not even the dyeing shop, there was no one left. I have to be careful, and I will ask when I meet people.
How do you know that everyone shook their heads, everyone said: "We don't know anything about Li Qing, and we haven't seen anyone in the cave of Yunmen Mountain go down." ”
Only teach Li Qing to be at a loss, I don't know why.
Looking at the evening, I had to rest in the inn again.
On the second day, he went back and forth into the alleys, and did not meet a single one.
But when I asked people, they were all talking on the street, and Li Qing was stunned, and thought: "I also blame the path that came out the day before yesterday, there are some differences, could it be that this Qingzhou city is newly built, not my old Qingzhou? There is only one Yunmen Mountain in the world, and there are no two. Why don't I go out of the south gate, go to Yunmen Mountain to see, if Yunmen Mountain is no different, this is my old Qingzhou, and then visit slowly, so as to find out the reason. ”
Hurriedly ran out of the south gate and went to Yunmen Mountain.
When I was about to reach the top of the mountain, I saw a pavilion early and thought: "This path is obviously from Yunmen Mountain, when is there a pavilion here?
Yuan Lai inscribed: "Rotten Rope Pavilion." The emperor was established in four years. ”
Li Qingdao: "Yes! In the past, the woodcutter once met an immortal playing chess, and he watched a game of chess, and he didn't know how many years had passed, and the handle of the axe sat under him, and it was rotten, and the story of the rotten Ke is still told in the world." Many points are my descendants, I hung this hemp rope down the bottom of the cloud gate cave, and also went to meet the gods, and the rope was rotten on the mountain, so this pavilion was established, called the rotten rope pavilion. It's nothing more than to spread it in all directions and make a beautiful talk. Look at the words 'the fourth year of the emperor' written on the back of him, but it is not still the sun and moon of this year, why is it that the people in the city have changed like this? ”
I saw that in front of the acupoint, a stele was erected, and the inscription said: "Li Qing's soul summoning place." ”
Li Qing was startled and said, "I am alive here now, and I have never died, what are you going to do to recruit my soul?"
I thought about it again and said, "Yes, yes! I went down to such a dangerous place, lifted the bamboo basket up, and disappeared me, and I was suspiciously dead, so I summoned my soul back here." ”
He thought about it again and said, "Hey, could it be that I'm really dead, and it's the soul here today?"
I couldn't make a decision in my heart, and thought: "If it is a conjuring spirit, there must be a burial place, and if it is buried, it must be around the ancestral grave, although there is a day when people change it, the ancestral grave has not been changed for thousands of years, why not go to the ancestral grave to see, or have an understanding." ”
Descended Yunmen Mountain, turned the east gate in a way, and saw the ancestral tomb from afar, the mountain is like a green dragon, flying down from the sky. I remembered: "There is a cloud on the "Funeral Sutra": 'The mountain is like a phoenix, or like a dragon, and after a thousand years, it will be an immortal official.'" 'Look at my ancestral tomb has such feng shui, how can I just get out of it!) I met an immortal and was driven home, how can I ascend to heaven?
When I arrived at the ancestral tomb, I couldn't help but bow twice.
I saw many green pines and poplars hugging each other, all of them were cut down, and the steles on the grave were also knocked down and interrupted, all of them did not look like the old times, and they were very sad, and sighed: "All the descendants of my family are really dead, and none of them have come to the grave to take care of them?"
There is only one stele, but it is still erect, and the handwriting on the stele seems to be recognizable, which is the seven words of "the tomb of the late Taoist priest Li Qing".
Li Qingdao: "Since it is a soul burial, there is no fault of burying some clothes in it, and it must be an empty grave." It's just that the stele has been eroded by moss, and it must not have been erected in the fourth year of the emperor's reign, so it can be seen that I have been dead for a long time. It must be my soul that comes home today, so that all relatives and children are not allowed to see me. Otherwise, why aren't there any of these thousands of people?"
That Li Qing was full of suspicion: "Just as the blue sky and the day, like a dream." I don't know if it's life, and I don't know if it's death, teach me to ask for clarification?"
When I was wandering, I suddenly heard the faint sound of the fishing drum, and when I went to look, it was a blind old man in front of the Dongyue Temple, where he sang the Tao and gathered people to plunder money, and then he remembered: "When I came out of the mountain, the second sentence of the verse taught to me by the immortal chief: 'Listen to the simple and ask. 'Isn't this a fishing drum Jane?' I should have asked him. And he stood aside, and when the crowd had dispersed, he went over and asked him. ”
I saw that the blind old man stopped plundering more than ten dollars, but no one was willing to pay.
One of them said: "Sir, you should rap and wait for us to gather enough with you." ”
The blind man said, "No, no, I am a blind man, if I finish speaking, I will slip away and go away, where will I come to seek it?"
The crowd said, "How can this be justified! You are a disabled person, and you will not be a son of man even if you are coaxed." ”
The blind man listened to the people, and then beat the fishing drum and slammed the four lines of the poem:
Summer to cold, spring to autumn,
The water flows eastward under the sunset bridge.
Where is the general's war horse now?
Wild grass and flowers are full of sorrow.
After reading these four poems, the first perfunctory transmission is a passage of "Zhuangzi sighs for the skeleton", and it is a Taoist story, which is in line with Li Qing's meaning.
Li Qing took a step closer, listened attentively, and saw the blind man say once, sing once, and sigh until the skin of the skeleton was raw, and he returned to the sun, and jumped straight up in the ground. Some of those people laughed and some sighed. But fortunately, it was a half-book, and the blind man stopped drumming Jane, and when the money was enough, he said that this was the routine of speaking plainly.
Who knew that everyone was happy when they were obedient, and when it came time to pay the money, they looked at each other and refused to make a move.
There are also people who have no money around, so they pretend to say a few cold words and walk away in a feigned manner.
Just now, I only got five cents. The man who plundered the money was anxious in his heart, and he started a throat rush and scolded the people.
One of them gave birth to a sharp matter, and he quarreled with the one who plundered the money. One sentence at a time, if you are not humble, I will not let you, so you will hand over the fight, and scatter the fifteen cents that have been swept back and forth into a place.
The crowd shouted, and they all left.
There were a few who didn't leave, and they went to persuade them to fight, leaving the blind ones alone.
Li Qing was moved by compassion, picked up the fifteen coins on the ground, handed them over to the blind person, and sighed in his mouth: "The world is so thin, and money is so precious!"
The blind man took the money in his hand, heard his sigh, and asked, "Who are you?"
Li Qingdao: "The old man is asking for letters, if you know some roots, I will send you dozens of wine money." ”
The blind man said, "What kind of letter do you ask?"
Li Qingdao: "In this Qingzhou City, there is a Li family who is a dyer, do you know?"
The blind man said: "Under the surname Li, dare to ask the old man Gao's surname?"
Li Qingdao: "My name is Li Qing, and I am seventy years old this year. ”
The blind man laughed and said, "How do you deceive me blindly, you have to take advantage of me." I'm not a young man, I'm older than you, I'm seventy-six years old. Only my uncle's great-ancestor is called Li Qing, why are you also called Li Qing?"
Li Qing saw that he had some origin in what he said, so he changed his tone and said: "There are all the people in the world with the same name and surname, how dare they take advantage of you? Let me ask you, where is the great-uncle of Ling now?"
The blind man said, "This is a long talk. In the fourth year of Emperor Wen of Sui, my uncle's great-grandfather was also seventy years old, and he wanted to go to the cave of Yunmen Mountain to visit the immortal cave mansion, and prepared a lot of hemp ropes, and hung them down. You said that in this cave, but you can go down? Yuan came to my family and his family, all thanks to his blessings. Since his death, the family affairs have been scattered, and the war has wiped out all the children and grandchildren of my clan, leaving me alone with a living newspaper and still here, but there are no men or women, and I live by singing and preaching. ”
Li Qing secretly thought: "Yuan Lai mistakenly thought that I died in the Cloud Gate Cave. ”
He asked again: "He has only been hanging down the Yunmen Cave for a year, why is the family matter so scattered and so fast?
The blind man said: "Oh! dare you old man say a dream." Now it must not be the fourth year of the emperor's reign, but the fifth year of Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty. Emperor Wen of Sui sat in the world for twenty-four years, passed on to Emperor Yang, and also did it for fourteen years, but was murdered by Yu Wenhua, so the world was in chaos. But it was Tang Taizong who fought the world, and let his father be the emperor, called Gaozu, and sat for nine years. Taizong sat at home for twenty-three years. Now the emperor is the crown prince of Taizong, and he has been on the throne for another five years. Counting from the fourth year of the emperor's reign, it is a total of seventy-two years. When my great-grandfather died, I was only five years old, and now I am seventy-six years old. ”
Li Qing said again: "I heard that there are five or six thousand ding in the Li family, and it will be seventy-three years apart, and they shouldn't all be dead, only you are left." ”
The blind man said: "How do you know the reason for this, old man? It's just because the people in my clan also have some skills, and they can make money with their bare hands." Unexpectedly, after the death of Emperor Yang of Sui, a Wang Shichong rebelled, came to my Qingzhou, and saw that all the people in my family were strong and strong, and they were all used as soldiers. That Wang Shichong was very poor, and he was defeated repeatedly, so he wiped out all his troops and horses. If I hadn't been a disabled person at that time, I wouldn't be here today. ”
Li Qing listened to this speech, like a dream for the first time, like a drunk party waking up, and only then did he understand.
There were only thirty or forty Wen money around him, and he gave all of them to the blind person, and he didn't explain these reasons to him, so he turned around and entered Qingzhou City again.
I thought all the way: "There is an ancient poem: 'Seven days in the mountains, a thousand years in the world.'" I went down to the Yunmen Cave from the fourth year of the emperor's reign, and I could still get a few days, but I didn't know that it was the fifth year of Tang Gaozong's Yonghui, and there was a gap of 72 years. If I live in it for a few more hours, I won't even have this Qingzhou City. Now that my children and grandchildren are deceased, and the high-rise houses I live in belong to other surnames, there is no need to mention it. It's just that I don't have half a penny by my side, and I don't have any other acquaintance in front of me to borrow it, teach me how to spend my life?
Sighed a few times, thought for a while, and suddenly said: "I, Li Qing, am so ignorant, how can I think about being an immortal? When I was about to go out, the immortal chief clearly said that I would come home, and I was afraid that I would not have anything to eat, so he taught me to go to his bookshelf to get a book, and now that I am in my sleeve, why don't you take out the book and see what other business the Tao does?"
What kind of book is this book? Yuanlai is a medical book, which specializes in treating children's diseases, and there are not many prescriptions on it.
When Li Qing saw it, he realized: "The immortal chief once said to me, after more than seventy years, I will still be allowed to come there." I think that these seventy years are not easier than being under the Cloud Gate Cave, and it has been in the world for several hours. Besides, my old man has never been in the medicine shop, so how can he be reckless and want to practice medicine, and I don't have the capital to buy medicinal materials, so it is better to find an old adult in the pharmacy and discuss with him, so that I can take care of it. ”
Just after walking more than 300 steps, there is a white powder signboard, which reads: Jizu Jinpu sells raw and cooked medicinal materials in Sichuan and Guangzhou.
At that moment, Li Qing was overjoyed when he saw it and said: "The third verse that the immortal chief taught me said: 'Live in gold. "Isn't this surnamed Jin?" The world is known as the prophet of the unknown immortals, don't you believe it! Don't you believe it!"
I saw that the person sitting in the shop was not in his twenties, and his name was Jin Dalang.
Li Qing hurriedly stepped forward, sang with him, and asked, "Do you still sell this medicinal herb now, or are you willing to sell it on credit?"
Jin Dalang said: "Other people's families buy medicine, they have to sell it in cash; only those who practice medicine and open a shop are long-term customers, but they only need medicine to be taken from the account book, or once a quarter or a month, and the total amount is repaid, which is called half credit and half cash." ”
Li Qing lied and said: "I used to be a young doctor, I have always walked along the village with a bag on my back, but now that I am old, I also want to open a shop and sit on the ground to practice medicine. ”
Jin Dalang said: "It's next door to my house, there is a vacant room, don't you see the word 'rent' posted on the door? ”
Li Qingdao said: "I have no other home in my old body, so I have all of them." It's just that there is a vertical signboard in front of the shop, and there is a medicine box and medicine knives in the shop, and all kinds of family fires, so that it looks like a doctor. Where are these things to be purchased? I don't know if you can get them on credit?"
Jin Dalang said: "I have all the surplus in my shop, and I borrowed it from you." When the business is prosperous, won't it be convenient for me to finally return the medicine account to me?"
That Li Qing lost Jin Dalang's strength, and he stayed in the wall of his pharmacy, remembering: "When I said goodbye to my relatives on Yunmen Mountain, there was a poem: 'Laughing at the pot Gong once got the way, I was still annoyed that there was a hanging pot in the market. 'I don't want to come back today, and I want to practice medicine again, but I shouldn't have two proverbs. ”
Then in front of the door, a big sign was hung horizontally, and the words "hanging pot" were written.
A big sign was erected, and the words "Li's Specialist Pediatric Incurable Diseases" were written.
There are all kinds of things in the shop, all of which are complete. A real makeup, a Buddha like a Buddha, naturally like a special doctor.
It just so happened that in Qingzhou City this year, no matter how big or small, all of them were harmful to the weather, called children's plague, but those who were stained died. The kindergarten department didn't ask for a place, and even the big one was invited. How do you know that this disease is biased, and the medicine given by your famous gentleman should only be thrown into the water, and he will die before his eyes.
Only Li Qing, an old man, is eccentric, he doesn't have to go to the patient's home to cut his pulse to see a doctor, as long as he says a symptom and how he looks like, he will pick up a post of medicine, regardless of the material, whether it is expensive or cheap, and whether it works or not, but a post costs a hundred dollars.
If he asks him for two posts, he will say, "Why do you still use two posts for my medicine?"
I was willing to return the money, and I didn't even post this post.
The people who begged for medicine also half-believed and half-believed, but they were in critical condition, so they had to redeem a post and go back to eat.
Do you have such a miracle medicine? When you reach the mouth of a child, the illness is half cured, and as soon as you swallow it, you will be completely cured. There is also the medicine to go back, the child is already dead, but the fragrance of the medicine to be fried is rushed in the nostrils of the child, and it will wake up. This name spread all over the city, and they all called him "Li Yiti".
Since then, I don't know how many children have been cured, and I don't know how much money I have earned.
I think Li Qing is a single person, and his daily consumption is limited, except for the repayment of the house money, medicine money and the fire money of the family, is the surplus like the usual accumulation of birthday gifts, all rotten at home?
After all, there is a place to come from, and there is a place to go. Yuan came back to Li Qing this time, and it was very different from the original temperament, and there was no dispersion. In addition to repaying the money for all kinds of family fires and cooked medicinal materials on credit in Jin Dalang's shop, the rest only hooked up the daily use, and all the future relief for the poor, leaving no difficulty. This is called the convenience of extensive travel, immeasurable merit. With this fame, it spreads more and more.
Don't say that Qingzhou is a county, all over Qilu place, but if you want to be a doctor, you can smell Li Yiti's name, and that one doesn't come to worship under the door, I want to learn some magic!
I saw that Li Qing didn't read the medical books anymore, and he didn't go to the patient's home to diagnose the pulse. There are also those who say that the symptoms are the same, and who pour out all kinds of medicines, and there are also those who say that the diseases are all kinds of medicines, and they are the same as his medicines. But when I saw that I took the medicine and took it, it didn't work.
Everyone was at a loss, and they had to find a space and ask for advice carefully.
Li Qingdao: "You suspect that I haven't looked at the pulse, so I have to take medicine, I don't know that in the way of medicine, it is a sacred skill to look at the pulse and ask the eye, so it can be seen that looking at the pulse is the fourth class of doctors, not the first-class." In addition, pediatrics is different from Dafang pulse, he is not full of qi and blood, what kind of pulse can be seen? There is no fault to be clear in the heart, to point to the bottom, and to figure out a meaning in the future. How can you rely on a dead prescription to cure the disease? You wait but look at my medicine, and you should think about what I mean. The book "Daguan Materia Medica" is not published in my Shandong, you wait until you are familiar with "Materia Medica", and you know the medicinal properties before you can use medicine. The upper one wants to see what the year is, so he will share it with him, and the two will see that it is the people of that place who are sick, whether it is near the mountains or near the water, and they will share it with him; the three will see that it is a very similar family, rich people, more soft and brittle, poor and lowly people, more strong, so they will share a supplement with him: carefully ask the symptoms, what kind of medicine should be used, and then come up with some ingenuity, according to the king's ministers, add or subtract into a prescription, natural medicine and disease are combined, and the disease goes with the medicine. Therefore, the ancients compared the use of medicine to the use of soldiers, all in the use of medicine, not in the medicine. Zhao Kuo's disciples read his father's book, and eventually he was defeated, which is also a lesson for him!"
Everyone bowed down and retreated. How do you know that Li Qing has a thin immortal book by his side, how can he easily leak it?
Children have to be saved,
Lao Tzu has no books to read.
Li Qing since Tang Gaozong Yonghui five years, the practice of medicine began to pave, really a time passed, unconsciously passed the sixth year, and it was five years of Xianqing, three years of Longshuo, two years of Linde, two years of Ganfeng, two years of Zongzhang, four years of Xianheng, two years of Shangyuan, three years of Yifeng, one year of Tiaolu, one year of Yonglong, one year of Kaiyao, a total of twenty-seven years.
This year is the first year of Yongchun, and suddenly there is an edict down, saying that the royal driver is fortunate to be Taishan, and he wants to repair the story of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to seal Zen.
How can you call it Feng Chan? It is only for the five famous mountains in the world, which are called the five mountains. Among the five mountains, there is no such as Mount Tai, especially Lingxiu, leading to the sky, and the clouds and rain are all out of this. Therefore, there is an emperor who has attained the Tao, encountering the peace of the world, the wind and rain are smooth, and he personally went to the top of Mount Tai to worship the god Yue, and carved a song of merit and merit, and became heaven and earth. The words engraved on the stele were all filled in red gold, and they were called golden books. There is a white jade sleeve outside the stele, which is called the jade inspection. It is the most grand event of the imperial court. That day, the emperor was not easy to deceive, and the ode was slightly untrue, so there was a strange storm and rain, and it couldn't be finished. This is not a creation of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, straight from before Dayu, there are seventy-nine generations, all of which have been enshrined in Zen. Later, there were only two emperors, Qin Shi Huang and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, how could they be called kings of the Tao? It was nothing more than to whitewash the peace and extravagantly watch and listen. After all, Qin Shi Huang had to take refuge under the pine trees in heavy rain, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty also injured his left foot when he went down the mountain. Therefore, after Emperor Wu, no one dared to go to Zen.
This is the third time that Tang Gaozong has issued an edict.
Qingzhou place, is the only place to go to Mount Tai, the assassin historian received the edict, inevitably lit up the doorman, filled the streets and built roads, and waited for the holy car.
那李清既有铺面，便也编在人夫数内，催去着役。
At that time, Qingzhou had Li Qing practicing medicine, and he was so ashamed that Mr. Juvenile closed the shop, and no one dared to come forward. If he is taught to be a husband and build roads, if the children are suddenly ill, how can they invite him to come and ask for medicine?
He had to push a few eloquent people and said forward: "Li Qing, who is now practicing medicine, is already 97 years old and nearly 100 years old, what strength does he have to be a husband? We are willing to pay for him and hire another strong young man to serve in the service, and keep him in the shop, so as to save the lives of the children in my state." "In the year when Li Qing opened the shop, he was still said to be seventy years old, so people only recognized him as ninety-seven years old, and then knew that he was one hundred and sixty-eight years old.
Whoever is over seventy is considered to be old and exempt from servitude.
Therefore, the people of Hejun, by virtue of this name, wanted to work with him as a substitute, and still kept him in the shop to practice medicine.
How do you know that Zhou Thorn Shi is a native of Lingnan, and he believes in witches and doctors the most in that place, and said: "Although Li Qing is ninety-seven years old, I want him to be strong and strong, and do his best to work, how can he get medicine in his hand, and he can't repair the road? I don't see that Jiang Taigong is eighty-two years old and still has to assist King Wu of Zhou and raise troops into battle. Since he became a citizen of the imperial court, he also asked to do it when he died, and hid there? In general, he can heal children, is it that he is the only one who sits in Qingzhou when he is a young man? Since he opened his shop, it has only been 27 years, and the children of the previous Qingzhou family have never seen all of them die. How can you get rid of him by one name, and how can you serve the people?"
The people who joined the county with him repeatedly complained, but they did not listen.
There were so many people who were in a hurry that there was no one to deal with them.
They all walked to Li Qingpu to discuss, asked the central government to divide it urgently, and then went to talk to the state official.
Li Qingdao said: "Thank you for your kindness! In my old opinion, I don't want to say it." You say something trivial, what's so unpleasant. The state official is so stubborn, and he has no worries about the holy driver's personal coming, which is not an ordinary boss ratio. It is the sin of cutting off the head. Therefore, as long as you are in service, I am afraid that Gu Gong's deeds will not be investigated in the future. The stomach of the official, probably, resolutely refuses to listen to anyone again. But I wonder about the situation, and this edict will have to be stopped. Once in the second year of Linde, and again in the first year of the dew. Now it's the third time. If you didn't come the first two times, will you succeed this time? Within five days, there will be a break. If you don't let go of your guts, how can you do it with him!"
When everyone heard this, they all said strangely: "Seeing that sooner or later in Texas will be a card, the number of roads has been divided, and the husband is in service, like a hurry, the old man said that it was cold and cold." If the edict doesn't stop for a day, I'm afraid that you won't be a husband for a day? I want to collect money in the shop, as long as I go to the state to get him two cents a day's work and food. ”
They all sneered and dispersed.
How do you know that Emperor Gaozong is determined to go to Mount Tai this time to enshrine Zen, edict the officials of the Ministry of Rites, draft a note of etiquette, just to choose an auspicious day of the zodiac, and set off on the royal car; suddenly suffering from a symptom of paralysis, unable to stand up on both feet, how can he still perform such a great gift?
Therefore, the boss of Qingzhou could not transfer the document within three days and stop the former edict.
The people of Nahe County, Fang Xin Li Qingshen saw it, and he was more and more impressed.
Yuan came to the ground of Shandong, the most magicians, since Qin Shi Huang was good, sent Xu Fu to carry five hundred boys and girls to Penglai Mountain, to collect the medicine of immortality. That Xu Fu is Qi people. Later, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty also had a good way, worshiped Li Shaojun as the general of Wencheng, Luan Dawei as the general of Wuli, and prayed for the gods to descend in Tongtiantai, Bamboo Palace, and Guiguan. That Shaojun and Luan Da are also Qi people. Therefore, it has been passed down from generation to generation, and there is often this generation.
I have always seen Li Qing open a medical shop at the age of 70, and after 27 years, he is already nearly a hundred people.
Now that he sees that he foresees the past and the future, he must be a person who has attained enlightenment, just like Dong Feng and Han Kang, selling medicine incognito. Therefore, those monks came to worship the disciples one after another, and visited the Tao, hoping to get a glimpse of his background. repeatedly asked Li Qing and asked for the avenue.
Li Qing only pushed the old decay, Yuan didn't feel very conscious, only since the age of thirty, he gave up his desires, he didn't care about everything, and just wanted to recuperate, so he has never been sick or painless, or here.
The monks suspected him of concealment and refused to vent it lightly, but they asked: "Longevity can be raised, and the past and future things must not be easy to know." I don't know what kind of spell the teacher has, but I expect that there will be news of the cessation of the edict within five days?"
Li Qingdao: "I am really a living immortal there, a person who can predict the prophet? Don't you know the story of Confucius Ziping's real business sheep! It's just that I hear nursery rhymes on weekdays, and I guess that I will go, and I meet them by chance." Guy because the nursery rhyme is out of inadvertentness, and it is the most spiritual opportunity between heaven and earth, so he has the heart to try him, and everything is unsuccessful. I started from the fifth year of Yonghui to open a medical shop here, and I heard that there was a nursery rhyme in the Longshuo period, and you should remember it. The nursery rhyme says:
"Mount Tai is high, how many floors high? Three times to recruit horses, the bypass road is soaring. I went three times, but I couldn't get on it.
"Sure enough, the first two times have been tested, so I know that this time there is no reason. Most of the old people have heard a lot and have a lot of experience, and they don't know each other because of this, so what kind of spells can't be done!"
When the priests saw that he refused to speak, they often collected money and medicines, and they were busy and had no leisure, and the gang who wanted relief came to disturb them, so they gradually dispersed.
Next year, Emperor Gaozong Yan Jia, but it was Empress Wu Zetian who came to the dynasty and sat for twenty-one years, and he was the crown prince Emperor Zhongzong, who sat for six years, and was plotted by Empress Wei, but it was Emperor Ruizong who sat for six years in addition to Empress Wei, and passed on the throne Emperor Xuanzong, which was called Kaiyuan in the early years, and unconsciously passed another nine years, a total of forty-three years.
The city of Qingzhou knew that Li Qing was already one hundred and forty years old. First, I saw that his medicine was as effective as before, and secondly, his face was not old, and he was also like the old days, although he was not a god, he was also a senior man. Therefore those who studied medicine, those who learned the Tao, and those who believed in him were only under the door and refused to disperse. Precisely:
The immortals were originally in the Yanfu realm,
Flesh and blood still have to be made in the world.
The words are divided into two ends, but it is said that the Son of Heaven of Xuanzong also admires the immortals, respects Taoism, worships two heavenly masters, one Ye Fashan, and one Xing Hepu, all of whom are enlightened.
This year is the ninth year of Kaiyuan, and Master Xing and Ye Ertian played: "There are three true immortals in the world. One is named Zhang Guo, a native of Tiaoshan, Hengzhou, the other is called Luo Gongyuan, a native of Ezhou, and the other is called Li Qing, a native of Beihai. Although he has no intention of glory in the world outside the haze, it is unknown if the court religiously sent an envoy to hire him, or if he was willing to descend to come. ”
Therefore, Xuanzong Tianzi sent Xu Qiao, a scholar from Zhongshushe, to hire Zhang Guo, Dr. Cui Zhongfang, a doctor of Taichang, to hire Luo Gongyuan, and Pei Xian, a general secretary, to hire Li Qing.
The three envoys said goodbye to the saint, held the seal book, and went to recruit without a title.
Yuan came to Li Qing's earthly limit, his deeds have been completed, and his natural divinity is well-informed, and he has long known that the Pei She people will arrive sooner or later, and he has saved the words of the former immortals: "The fourth sentence says: 'Pei first escapes. The word 'escape' means escape, is it impossible for me to escape? Obviously, it should be dismembered. ”
How can your Tao be called autopsy? From the day of the immortal family's enlightenment, there is a rare need to leave the world, there is a day of soaring is called feathering, and there is also a death like the world, but there is no corpse in the coffin, this is the autopsy. Only autopsy is the most different. With his five elements, they can all be solved. In this way, everyone in the world does not know that he is an immortal.
Let's say that Li Qing got up early and taught his protégés to wait for the rest of the table, and said: "I don't sell medicine today, only at noon, I have to say goodbye to you." ”
All the disciples were taken aback, and said, "Master is so dignified, how can he say such unserious words? Besides, the disciples have been serving the disciples for a long time, and they have never taught the master a single mental method, so why did they go? Or stay for a while, and talk about the mystery with the disciples in detail, at that time, the master will always go to the immortals, and the Tao will be spread, so that future generations will also know that the master is a man of the Tao." ”
Li Qing smiled: "I don't have any mysteries to pass on, and I don't need future generations to know." It's just that Jin Dalang next door is not here, but I can bother you to buy a ready-made coffin for me, and when I am exhausted, even if I get off the coffin and nail it, I must not stop until tomorrow. All the things in my shop will be given to Jin Dalang, and I can also see the meaning of me and his seventy-year-old neighbor Lao She as customers. ”
All the protégés received their orders one by one, and the flowing water went to the comprador coffin and other pieces, and it was all over in an instant.
That Jin Dalang is also eighty-nine years old, his muscles and bones are also very strong, his steps are like flying, he has earned the old family's business, his children and grandchildren are full, and everyone calls him Jin Ah Gong.
Only Li Qing watched him grow old when he was a teenager, so he originally called him Dalang.
On that day, the fifth watch went to the countryside, so he was not there.
When Li Qing arrived at noon, he bathed in fragrant soup, changed into new clothes, and walked into the room. Those protégés followed closely.
Li Qingdao: "You go to the door, and when I sit quietly for a while, I will clear my mind and make sure that the advent period is not chaotic." Asked Jin Dalang to return, please come goodbye, and it is not in vain that you have always gotten along. ”
All the protégés followed the words, and when they walked out of the door, they asked Jin Dalang, but they still hadn't returned.
After a while, when I entered the room to watch Li Qing, he was already dead.
Among the protégés, there are also those who have been with each other for a long time, and there are also those who are not handsome, who only look for things and search for possessions.
If it's messed up, he will pay according to him, even if it goes into the coffin.
Yuanlai's corpse also has a lot of differences. But I saw that he had both hands and two feet on his chest, like a dragon. How can I put it down? When I want to pull him straight, I don't know that it is a zombie, like a piece of pig iron, and I can't move. He had to be carried into the coffin, nailed the lid and parked in the bunk.
Li Qing has been known for a long time, and it spread all over half of Qingzhou City in an instant, and the main customers came to investigate.
All the protégés ushered in and sent them away, and one by one they made their mouths bitter and their backs bent. There is a poem as proof:
A hundred years of traces mixed with wind and dust,
Once he resigned to the white clouds.
Where is the feather cover,
Leave the medicine mortar to pay the doorman.
However, it was said that Pei Ming, a general servant, came all the way and arrived in Qingzhou as early as possible. The assassin already knew it, and he greeted him with incense candles from the elders of Hejun. Until the state hall opened to read the edict, it was the recruitment of the immortal Li Qing.
The assassin was ignorant, so he asked the fathers.
The fathers and elders said: "Qingzhou place, but there is a pediatrics Li Qing, he is one hundred and forty years old this year, yesterday afternoon, died without illness, in addition, I have never heard of a very immortal Li Qing there. ”
When Pei Sheren saw this, he was taken aback, and sighed: "How many treks have the lower officials suffered, and the edict has come here, and Li Qing, an immortal who is hiring a doctor, is counting on being invited to enter the court, which is also called not dishonoring the king's life." It's not a coincidence, the one just now didn't go first, he died yesterday, and he didn't even see each other. When I thought of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, I once heard that someone had cultivated the medicine of immortality, and he sent a doctor to ask him for a prescription. Emperor Wu blamed him for being late, and he never asked for a prescription to kill this doctor. Thanks to Dongfang Shuo, he said: 'Since that person has the medicine of immortality, he must have taken it himself, and he should not die; 'Emperor Wu Fangwu. Fortunately, my Son of Heaven is a god, better than the Han Dynasty, even if there is no advice from Dongfang Shuo, there will be no fear of the middle doctor. However, since Xing and Ye Ertian Masters called him an immortal, he was not old since he was acquired, how could he die? If he died, he would not be an immortal. Even so, a person who is one hundred and forty years old and dies without illness is not an immortal, but it is also rare. ”
Even if he was paid to the state officials, and the left and right neighbors did not support the knot, seeing what kind of friendship Li Qing had on weekdays, how he practiced, he had already died on a certain day, and he could recover his life.
The assassin did not dare to slack off, so he called Li Qingzuo's neighbor You and ordered the knot to come so that the angel could get up.
Those neighbors were ordered to go out, and one of them said: "We are all descendants, and we don't know the details of his original origins, and how to settle the knot?" I heard that he started to get along with Ah Gong Jin, and he must know the root cause of his beginning. I went to the countryside yesterday, and I had to return only today and tomorrow morning, and I would write a note and submit it to him at his discretion, so that he could answer. ”
And they all said that they were right, and they went home together.
It happened that Jin Lao'er returned from the countryside, and he followed with a large bag of grass on his back, and met him.
Everyone greeted them and said, "Okay, Ah Gong Jin is back! You didn't go to the countryside yesterday, so you can say goodbye to your old friend Imperial Doctor Li." ”
Jin Lao'er said: "Where is he going, do you want to say goodbye?"
The crowd said: "He passed away yesterday afternoon. ”
Jin Lao'er said: "Sin, sin! I met him at the south gate yesterday, how can I curse him with such words?"
Everyone was taken aback and said, "Dead and dead, why do you see it again? I think it's his soul." ”
Jin Lao'er also exclaimed: "I don't believe there is such a miracle!"
I didn't go home, I ran to Li Qing's shop, only to see a coffin, all the protégés were white, and many people were there to ask.
Jin Lao'er just shook his head and said, "Strange! Strange!"
The protégés stepped forward and said, "My master returned to heaven at noon yesterday, because your old man is not there, and this coffin is still here. ”
He handed over a slip and said, "There is a family fire in the shop, and I will send it to you as a testament." ”
Jin Lao'er took the order, but did not watch it, but shouted: "Is it really dead!" ”
The neighbors asked, "Ah Gong Jin, why did you see him yesterday?"
Jin Lao'er said: "Although I went out early yesterday, before I went out of the south gate, I met a relative, and I stayed back to eat until it was late. Walking to the foot of Yunmen Mountain, it was already noon. Because I saw several good herbs, I was harvesting there, and I bumped into a boy in Tsing Yi who walked forward with an incense burner, and I didn't care. Not more than sixty or seventy steps, your master came, and somehow his left foot was wearing shoes, but his right foot was bare. I asked him where he was going, and he said, 'I have not been able to come back for several days because there are nine masters and brothers waiting for me to speak in the rotten rope pavilion on Yunmen Mountain. Then he took out a book and a bag of wisdom in his sleeve, and handed it to me as if it were a wish, and taught him to take it to the state. Now that the book and the bag are in my place, how can I die?"
So he reached out of his sleeve and looked at it.
At first, the protégés were suspicious of Jin Lao's troublemaker, and they refused to believe it, until they saw the things sent, and then believed: "Don't talk about noon or noon, it's just that my master never goes out of the shop, how can this thing be sent?"
The neighbors also said: "It's really a thing to see! He is dead, how can he send things? But he first knew that the Pei Sheren would hire him, so he made a Dao spirit appear, and it was not as obvious as it was! It must be a true immortal. ”
Jin Lao'er asked, "What Pei She hired him?"
The neighbors recruited the people sent by the imperial court, and the governor knew that he was dead, and ordered the matter of the knot to be spoken.
Jin Lao'er said: "Yuan is like this. Now that he has a token, why should he have to bear it again? I will go with you to the governor and convey it to the angels. ”
Everyone spoke according to Jin Lao'er and followed together.
Jin Lao'er took the book and the bag, and went to the state to tell Li Qing what he met yesterday to send the book.
The governor also said strangely, that is, he brought a group of people with him to reply to the angel.
That Pei Sheren was not interested in this trip, and he was about to get up if he urged the state to get up.
I saw that the state official led everyone to hold the book ceremony, and it was Li Qing who entrusted his neighbor Youjin Lao'er to send an angel at noon yesterday, please take a look at it.
Pei Sheren taught to open the book, but it was a thank you. Table says:
His Majesty's jade book has been simplified in Jiuqing. The real person is degraded, and the world is safe, but when the law is Tang and Yu's inaction, the text and the scenery are frugal. Waiting for the extreme number of luck, you will go to the court of Penglang. No matter what the ministers have just glimpsed the avenue, they have not yet entered the immortal class, that is, Zhang Guo Xianzun and Luo Gongyuan's friends will also be returned to the Qing Dynasty, and those who are wise and rational will also be able to serve the Qing Dynasty for a long time. The former Qin Shi Huang was born in the East China Sea in the East China Sea, and he did not go to the peace period, because the envoy returned to offer a pair of red jade. Although the minister is not talented, dare to forget to answer? I would like to use a green jade Ruyi to talk about my contempt, and I hope that Your Majesty will accept it.
When Pei Sheren saw it, he sighed and said, "I heard that the immortals are immortal, and the dead will be autopsied." If it is empty, it will be a fairy. But when I go back to the court, so that I can restore the saints, even the others will solve the infinite confusion?"
The officials and people of Hezhou all thought so. Even if they went to the shop together, when the coffin lid was opened, there was a green bamboo cane and a shoe in the coffin, but I didn't know where the body was yesterday.
It's okay not to open it, but after watching it, it's even more bizarre: but I saw a cloud of green smoke, rising into the sky, and even the coffin flew into the air without a trace. Only smell five kinds of aromas, all over Qingzhou, about 300 miles inside and outside, all touching the nose.
The Peishe people and the officials and people of Hezhou all looked at the sky and prayed. It is necessary to thank the table for the treasures, wrap it well, and send the angel to the court.
By next year, the whole world will be plagued, only Qingzhou but smell this fragrance, it will not be contaminated, only after Li Qing's death, for the sake of his hometown, he still left this fruit. So far, the ancestral hall has been set up on Yunmen Mountain, and the spring and autumn sacrifices are endless. Poetry Cloud:
Guanqi once said that it was rotten Keting,
Today, the cloud gate sees a rotten rope.
A hundred years of earthly life,
Fools are still fighting for fame.
