Chapter 079, Mei Gongzi held a banquet in the middle of the mountain, and the spirit of the divine tree appeared in public

In three days, Mei Zhenyi had to solve the trouble in front of him. Even in modern times, it was very troublesome to demolish a temple, let alone the Tang Dynasty. Fortunately, there was no need to demolish the temple and rebuild it. Qingfeng agreed to help him cast a spell to move it away. The first thing was to find another place. This was easy to deal with. The Mei family’s land in Wuzhou was too difficult to deal with. How to explain it to the people of Wuzhou and the Master Xingyun in the temple?

Moving the Bodhisattva for no reason is another special temple, which will cause great public opinion among the people, especially the current Empress Wu is celebrating Buddhism. If someone takes the opportunity to study a book, even the local government may be affected. Zhang Guo, an old fairy who has lived for hundreds of years, scratched his head, and couldn't think of any good way for the young master.

On the way down the mountain, Zhang Guo sighed: "When I met the fairy boy that day, the young master wanted to say that there were eight mountains in my house, so I just wanted to let them choose one of them."

Ti Liuzhuo interrupted, "It should be said that it is seven mountains. I will also cut out the Qiyun Peak where Qiyun Temple is located. No, it is better to say that it is six mountains. I will also cut out the Miaomen Mountain where I live."

Mei Yi frowned and said, "You are buying vegetables and bargaining? The young master was in a hurry at the time. Can you think of what happened today? The fairy boy picked Jingting Mountain, which means that they wanted this place. If the immortal family's mysterious tale was discussed like this, what if the young master was not saved that day?"

Mei Zhenyi nodded and said, "Uncle Yi is right, but he doesn't owe us what he said. He said it well. As long as I help me get out, I will give them a temple. As long as it is the place of the Mei family, they will choose. It is our own business to move away from Cuiting Temple, let alone Qingfeng promised to help."

Zhang Guo asked worriedly: "In three days, can the young master really have a solution?"

Mei Zhenyi: "Go to Cuiting Temple to meet Master Xingyun first. As long as she nods, I can handle the rest of the matter... Mr. Zhang, go with me... Let's go around, you are not suitable for entering the temple gate. Stay outside."

When he saw Master Xingyun, he ordered other nuns to avoid it. Zhang Guo and Mei Zhenyi explained the whole story with Master Xingyun alone, and finally said: "I want to choose another place to settle Cuiting Temple. I wonder what the Master has to say?"

Master Xingyun did not make things difficult for him and pondered for a moment, saying, "It is actually the same for me. I can worship Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva in the temple, and I can worship him anywhere. As for the nuns in the temple, if you move the temple to Wuzhou city and make it more convenient for the people of Wuzhou to offer incense, they will naturally be happy. I don't know how the young master explained this matter. It's hard to say that someone forced the Bodhisattva to move, right?"

Mei Zhenyi: "Master Master nodded, I have my own way. Zhang Guo, now you should accompany Master Master to Wuzhou City and ask Master Master to choose a blessed land. If it is the land of my Mei family, demolish the house. If there is a house, level the land. If there is no house, level the land."

Zhang Guo: "What if it weren't for the Mei family land?"

Mei Zhenyi: "Then buy it. You can buy it with a lot of money, or you can exchange it for another land or house in Wuzhou City. In short, don't let the original owner suffer a loss."

Master Xingyun: "Please rest assured, Mr. Mei. The place I chose will definitely not make Butler Zhang too embarrassed. I wonder what the young master has to do?"

"I think so, Master, can you please listen..." Mei Zhenyi said a way. Zhang Guo applauded after hearing this, "How did the young master think of such a wonderful idea? I just scraped my stomach and couldn't think of any way. The young master turned his eyes and thought of it. It was really an eye-opener."

Mei Zhenyi smiled and said, "It's just a trick for the people of the Jianghu. I was forced to do it without any choice, which made the master laugh."

Master Xingyun was too amused and laughed: "The tricks in the world depend on how to use them, and how can you laugh at me. I can only praise Mr. Mei for his intelligence and think of what others dare not think about. It's just that Luxue needs to agree to do this."

When he heard Master Xingyun say this, Zhang Guo scratched his head there again: "Yes, Luxue needs to come forward for this matter, but Luxue only has kindness to the Mei family and does not owe the Mei family affection. With her personality, she will not agree to such a thing."

Mei Zhenyi blinked: "We are going to ask Luxue for help. I really can't open my mouth, but Qingfeng can tell her. As long as Qingfeng speaks, Luxue will definitely agree."

Zhang Guo: "You still want to find that Qingfeng?"

Mei Zhenyi: "This matter is caused by him. If you don't ask him to discuss it, who will you ask him to discuss it? I'm just asking him to say something!...I'll go alone. Zhang Guo, you should accompany the Master to the city now. This temple will be moved in three days."

Just as I got off the Jingting and went up the Jingting, not far from the top of the Jingting, a huge rock stretched out to the sky, shaped like a giant palm facing upwards of the palm of the hand, called the Wangtian Stone. Qingfeng was standing on the Wangtian Stone with his hands behind his back, looking at Wuzhou City from afar and thinking, not knowing what he was thinking. Seeing Mei Zhenyi going up the mountain, he asked from a distance: "Why are you leaving and returning?"

Mei Zhenyi: "If you have something to do, I want to discuss it with Fairy Child. Well, where has Mingyue gone?"

Qingfeng: "She took Luxue to the mountains for a long time and hasn't been so happy. Thank you for sending us this temple. Just tell me if you have anything to do."

Seeing Mingyue happy, Qingfeng became easier to talk. Mei Zhenyi jumped onto the Sky-Looking Stone and stood beside Qingfeng and said something. After hearing this, Qingfeng asked curiously: "Why told me, don't you go to find Luxue by yourself?"

Mei Zhenyi smiled and said, "One of the time, the Mingyue Fairy Child and Luxue are having fun in the mountains. I don't want to disturb me. Secondly, my family owes Luxue love, so I'm a little bit hard to speak for her."

Qingfeng waved his hand: "I know, I will tell Luxue that if she agrees, even if I owe her a favor, I will pay it back in the future."

The dealings were simple this time, and it was settled in just a few words. Mei Zhenyi immediately went down the mountain and returned to Qiyunguan to discuss tomorrow with Mei Yi. The next day, Mei Yi represented the Mei family in Wuzhou and sent greetings and gifts to local officials such as the governor, chief, Sima, and local gentry, as well as the well-known local gentry. Thanks to Wuzhou Prefecture for helping to find Mei Zhenyi some time ago, and also thanked the parents and fellow villagers for their care and care.

There is another thing at the same time, that is, the eldest son of the Southern Lu Duke, Mei Zhenyi, and Yunqiwei, will invite everyone to Jingting Mountain to enjoy the cool air in two days, and enjoy vegetarian food in Cuiting Temple. This matter is a bit sudden, but who can not give Mr. Mei face? Moreover, the matter in the Northwest Army has already spread to Wuzhou at this time. It is said that Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva appeared in front of the formation to save Mr. Mei, so Mei Zhenyi held a vegetarian banquet in Cuiting Temple to thank the elders of Wuzhou.

Coincidentally, the news of the imperial court's reward of Mei Zhenyi came the next day. Although the official documents had not been delivered, the news had already been transmitted to Wuzhou in advance. Mei Zhenyi went to the northwest and was arrowed by his father. If he survived the disaster, he would be blessed. The matter spread to the court. The emperor heard about the shooting of Zi in front of the Southern Lu Gong Fortress, which was a great commendation. He also heard rumors that Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva showed his spirit and saved Mr. Mei's life. Empress Wu was also very happy.

Before the army returned, the military achievements of the generals had not yet been discussed in court. A royal edict was first given to Mei Xiaolang's son Mei Zhenyi as the Duqiwei. Although he was only an honorary official, he was also from the upper level of the fifth rank. He was quite young for children of this age. On the one hand, he was moved by his deeds, and on the other hand, he was also comforting Mei Xiaolang's heart. Everyone knew in their hearts that they were not happy after all, after all, they were not happy to shoot themselves.

At the same time as the imperial edict was delivered, several other special edicts were sent in a hurry. Mei Xiaolang rushed back to Luoyang immediately and handed over the military affairs of the northwest to Wang Fangyi for handling. In addition, Wang Fangyi was transferred to Xiazhou as the governor, and handled the post-war comfort matters of Northwest as soon as possible, and led a large army back to Suizhou. He worked with another army led by Cheng Wuting to wipe out the Baitiyu rebellion.

It turned out that the war in the northwest was fixed, and rebellion broke out in Suizhou again. There was a demon named Bai Tieyu in the local area who showed his supernatural powers and had countless believers. He once publicly recruited a Dharma assembly. He cast a spell to make a golden Buddha pour out of the plain. It was probably buried by him in advance, and he claimed that "those who can see the holy Buddha will be cured all diseases." This made him famous and many local people who converted to him.

Just as the rebellion in the northwest occurred, after Mei Xiaolang led a large army to leave Guanzhong, Bai Tieyu rebelled and led his people to occupy Chengping County. He killed local officials and seized the gold and silver houses of wealthy gentry, called himself the "Saint Emperor of Light", and rewarded his "officials" with great rewards. After Bai Tieyu became emperor, he marched to the surrounding prefectures and counties, burned the houses wherever he went, killed officials, and threatened the people to join the rebels. The Luoyang court was shocked.

The rebellion occurred not far from Chang'an, so the court attached great importance to it. Not only did Cheng Wuting lead the army, but also ordered the Northwest army to return to attack. It was at such a checkpoint that Mei Xiaolang ordered to hand over military affairs. He rushed back to Luoyang immediately. Mei Xiaolang also felt surprised. What is more important than quelling the rebellion?

As he thought about it, Mei Xiaolang suddenly felt a stern. Could it be that the emperor general was about to be reborn soon and wanted to call him, the prime minister, to return to Beijing to explain his funeral and become a minister in charge of the new emperor? This must be the case, only this is possible! Mei Xiaolang dared not delay and handed over the military talisman and rushed back to Luoyang with his personal guards.

The major events in the central and local areas of the court seem to have nothing to do with Wuzhou, which is far away in the south of the Yangtze River. The major events that happened in Wuzhou recently were that Mr. Mei was promoted. At this time, we were going to invite all the local nobles. Who would not come after receiving the post? And we could not come empty-handed. We ordered the servant to send all the gifts to Jingwu Villa and bring the gift list to Jingting Mountain.

It is midsummer July, and the south of the Yangtze River is very hot, but the cool breeze in the mountains is pleasant and the scenery is pleasant. It is really a good place for a summer outing. Dear guests get off the horse in the foot of the mountain, shaking fans in groups of three or two and laughing along the mountain road, and they come to Cuiting Temple. From time to time, there are sounds of greeting each other.

It was said that it was a banquet in Cuiting Temple, but in fact it was not in the temple to disturb the masters. The table was placed on the clearings in the middle of the mountain in front of the temple, with a good view, and it looked like an outing banquet. There were not many guests, and all the local guests were well-known in Wuzhou, with more than 20 in total, and three tables were set up. As for the servants accompanying them, they were all guarding the mountains and forests in the distance.

Mei Zhenyi was wearing a light shirt and accompanied by the butler Zhang Guodi, thanked the guests one by one. She performed in a normal manner, just like a well-educated noble child. During the meal, everyone chatted and laughed, chanted poems and toasted, and they were both elegant and talented. Mei Zhenyi only said that she was young and did not drink well, and Zhang Guo responded to everyone's toast.

The atmosphere of drinking was so easy that the conversation became much easier. Jiang Hua, the governor of Wuzhou, sat next to Mei Zhenyi, and mentioned the Mei family erecting a temple in Jingting Mountain. Almost all the people of Wuzhou heard that the Mei family had set up a temple in Jingting Mountain. However, they did not know why. It was a very important thing to build a temple in that era, but it was unclear.

Based on this topic, Mei Zhenyi told a story, the plot is very simple-

Last year, he had a dream. In the dream, he saw a fairy and told him that he was named Luxue. I remember that because Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva showed his holy presence on this mountain, a drop of dew dripped on the roots of an ancient tree, so this sacred tree also practiced and became a spirit, which was her. Luxue also told Mei Zhenyi in his dream. Because they had worshipped Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva for many years, the Bodhisattva would bless him to survive a disaster.

After Mei Zhenyi woke up, she told her father who was far away in Chang'an that the Southern Lu Gong would rather believe that he had it, so she ordered people to build the Green Snow Temple on Jingting Mountain.

The matter is very bizarre, because a temple was built in a dream? But it was difficult for everyone to question it when Mr. Mei said it. Because there was a real rumor, Mr. Mei was able to escape from the army of thousands of horses because of the appearance of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva. It happened to be the case that what Lu Xue said in the dream could be linked to the ground. So the topic shifted to the appearance of the Bodhisattva, and Jiang Hua asked Mr. Mei, was the real or false?

Mei Zhenyi did not say whether it was true or false, but replied: "The situation was very strange at that time. I only felt a force to protect myself. Therefore, although my father's arrow shot extremely powerfully, I was safe and sound. If you think about it carefully, it was really possible that the Bodhisattva had appeared."

When everyone heard this, they all sighed that Mr. Mei had a deep blessing and great compassion. The Bodhisattva was very sympathetic. He talked about it all. The Bodhisattva in Cuiting Temple is so effective that he should reshape his golden body. In the future, he would bring his children from his family to burn incense, and the people of Wuzhou should also often serve incense, etc. Zhang Guo interrupted: "This temple is too far in the mountains, and this is the Mei family's private place. It is not convenient for too many people to disturb him."

Zhang Guo had just finished speaking, a gust of wind blew, and the shadows of trees around him swayed, but everything sounded silent. For a moment, the mountains and fields in front of him seemed like picturesque, but they added a sense of vitality and agility. Everyone couldn't help but talk. Looking at the wind, they saw a woman in green with tall hair like a heavenly man, floating with the wind and standing on the treetops not far away.

"Greetings to the Immortal Green Snow!" Mei Zhenyi was the first to react, left her seat and stepped forward and bowed to the ground. When everyone saw his behavior, they left her seat and bowed one after another.

"Mei Zhenyi, you will survive the disaster and be promoted to the title. Don't forget the protection of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva! Cuiting Temple is far away in the mountains, and it is your Mei family's private place. Do you only plan to enjoy the kindness of the Bodhisattva alone? Then go to Wuzhou City to choose a blessed land. After a night, the gods will help you and move this temple to the city. The Bodhisattva is merciful and protects all people. This move can also be worshipped by the people of Wuzhou to avoid the suffering of climbing the mountain and traveling far away."

After Lu Xue said this, when everyone looked up again, she had already floated away and disappeared into the mountains, as if a geek appeared. Then it became lively. What he saw and heard just now was incredible, and everyone was amazed. When he went down the mountain to see the Lu Xue Temple, he saw the statue on the altar. The statue on the altar was really the Lu Xue Immortal I saw with his own eyes! Everyone had no doubt about what Mei Zhenyi said, but they were skeptical about what Lu Xue said. Is there really a help from the gods that could move Cuiting Temple to the city overnight?

At the request of Qingfeng, Luxue appeared and said what Mei Zhenyi told her, and then left alone. Mei Zhenyi wanted this effect. She immediately acted like she was afraid to be negligent and ordered the butler Zhang Guo to quickly go to Wuzhou City to select a "blessed land", which is the place where Master Xingyun chose the day before yesterday.

Wuzhou is an ancient city in the south of the Yangtze River. It is not small in scale. There is a small stream flowing through the west side of the city. The houses are scattered on both sides, including an open space and surrounded by a small wood. It is a rare quiet place in the city. Its area is just the same size as Cuiting Temple. This is the place chosen by Master Xingyun.

The place where Lu Xue "appeared" was seen on Jingting Mountain, which was full of prominent figures in Wuzhou. That night, the news spread throughout the city. The governor Jiang Hua even mobilized local yamen runners to put martial law on the place designated by Mei Zhenyi, and no idle people were allowed to approach the gods to prevent them from colliding with the gods. Many people didn't sleep well that night, and everyone was waiting. Will there really be a miracle?

In that era, such things were the biggest gossip topic in the folk entertainment. The people of Wuzhou were very excited and were looking forward to it. They never thought that this play was created by Mei Zhenyi being forced to ask the Bodhisattva to move. Since ancient times, Mei Zhenyi was of course proficient in the methods of Jianghu sorcerers. He was much more skillful than ordinary Jianghu sorcerers.

All obstacles were settled, and Qingfeng was waiting for the magical powers to display his magical powers. Those who knew the inside story could miss this kind of eye-opening opportunity. At night, they all ran to the mountain to watch the fun. Zhang Guo, Mei Yi, and Master Xingyun were all a lot. Mei Zhenyi ordered people to seal the road up the mountain in advance, and no one was allowed to approach the foot of Jingting Mountain at night. The other nuns in the temple had already arrived in the city, and there was only an empty temple left in Cuiting Temple.
Chapter completed!
