When I was a child, I often heard the old people in the village say that the true Three Kingdoms, the false fengshen gods, a journey to the west laughed at the dead, the mythological stories were just a pastime after tea and dinner, when they could not be true, the myths and stories of the "List of Fengshen Gods" were known to all ages, and the mythological stories of "Anti-Tang Yanyi" and "Saying Tang Later Biography" were not too colorful.
Xu Maogong was a military master of the early Tang Dynasty, Emperor Taizong gave the surname Li, Jinjue Yingwang, Xu Maogong had two sons, the eldest son Xu Jingye (in history and Luo Bin Wang rebelled against Wu Zetian, also written in the novel), the second son Xu Jingyou, the brothers Baozhenggong Crown Prince Li Dan raised an army in Yangzhou, hit Li Chengye's plan, the brothers were defeated and killed, and the crown prince Li Dan went into exile.
Xu Jingyou had two sons, the eldest son Xu Xiaode, when he was five years old, playing in the back garden, was blown away by a strange wind, and since then the family did not know whether he was alive or dead, it turned out that it was Yuding Zhenren, the lord of the Jinxia Cave in Yuquan Mountain, who took Xu Xiaode to the cave house to cultivate, and Yuding Zhenren calculated that Li Tangjiangshan had this disaster, and later let his apprentice Xu Xiaode assist Li Dan and restore Li Tangjiangshan.
Those who have seen the "List of Fengshen Gods" all know that this Yuding Zhenren is no one else, it is the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Illumination Sect, the master of the Erlang God Yang Jian, Yang Jian has learned eight or nine Xuangong, there are seventy-two changes, and among the brothers of his generation, he is the first person, even if the master's generation really fights, there are no two who can defeat him, Yuding Zhenren sent Yang Jian down the mountain to assist his uncle Jiang Ziya Xingzhou to destroy the shang.
In this way, this Xu Xiaode also became the disciple of Erlang Zhenjun, in the "Later Biography of tang", that is, "Xue Dingshan Zhengxi" Erlang Zhenjun also appeared, in Jinniuguan, the wild bear essence captured the two princesses of golden peach and ginkgo, and was about to marry the two princesses, and was greatly disturbed by Qin Han in his cave house, Qin Han was not the opponent of the wild bear essence, so he drove the cloud to the cave house of master Wang Chan Laozu, and Wang Chan Laozu used words to provoke the Erlang god to receive the black bear essence.
After Ma Zhou found the exiled crown prince Li Dan, he raised an army in Hanyang to attack Wu Zetian, and the Grand Marshal Li Chengye invited several side doors and left roads, and planted them according to the yin and yang two banners, causing The Tang King Li Dan and the people of Mancheng to suffer from headaches, and the fireworks in Hanyang City were extinguished, and Yuding Zhenren asked the boy next to him to call Xu Xiaode to come to him, inform Xu Xiaode of his identity, and ask Xu Xiaode to go down the mountain to assist Li Tangxing's troops to restore Tang.
Xu Xiaode had been practicing in Yuquan Mountain for twelve years, and he could calculate yin and yang, observe heaven and earth, know the Five Thunder Heavens and Heavenly Gang Method, and have the ability to move mountains and overturn the sea. Yuding Zhenren then handed a Taiyi sword to Xu Xiaode and said that this sword had been trained by the Dan Furnace, and with the five elements of yin and yang, it could kill demons and monsters, and after receiving the sword from the master, Xu Xiaode rode to Hanyang to assist Li Dan.
"Speaking of Tang" in the prequel, is to take the world by force, there are spells are not used on the battlefield, just Li Jingkeng Meng Haigong attacked the Golden Seal Pass once, in the sequel and three passes, several of the old ancestor's apprentices in the dust to protect Tang, the immortal demons also appeared together.
