"Hey, it's really hard to be on duty in the Heavenly Court."
Inside the Yuelao Hall, a thin old man in a scarlet wedding robe sat on his armchair, drank the tea brought by the boy, and wiped the hot sweat from his forehead.
No, I just dealt with a celestial general and insisted on asking us to help him connect with a fairy from Yaochi.
Can this line be pulled casually
Even if he is old, he can't change other people's fate randomly.
Although, there are indeed many ways to operate in the dark, but it also depends on who is being dragged!
It took a lot of effort for Yue Lao to fool that general, and he was sweating profusely from exhaustion.
If you want to refuse, you can't make the other party unhappy, and you can't offend the one you're looking for...
Yuelao's job is really too difficult.
Most of the marriages are self-made, and a small part of the marriage is a gift from God.
As the old man of the moon, he does have a part of the right to change it, but the golden scissors and those red strings are treasures of heavenly merit and virtue, so you really shouldn't move them at will!
Even if it is just a marriage between a mortal couple, if it is not handled well, not only will it damage the merits accumulated through hard work, but it will also be punished by the serious, responsible and energetic Jade Emperor...
What is a self-made marriage
In the apse there is a nearly endless mystical universe, in which there are countless small clay sculptures. All creatures from heaven and earth who need to marry, among the three marriages of heaven, earth, and human beings, have corresponding little clay figurines here.
Marriage is the foundation of etiquette and the foundation of outline.
The creatures corresponding to the clay figurines are mostly human races, and a small number of well-behaved monster races and witch races;
When they interact in the mortal world, the clay figurines here will get close to each other, and then each will give birth to a red rope of marriage, and the red thread will be entangled with each other, which is a marriage relationship.
The long-term love is the red rope of each other slowly shaking, slowly entangled;
It was love at first sight, just a light touch and the red string wrapped around it.
Occasionally, a clay figurine drifts in the wrong direction, and the red rope gets entangled in someone else's marriage red rope, which is naturally a meddling in marriage...
What is a god-given marriage
When a living being is born, a clay figurine is produced by induction here, and the red rope of marriage is entangled with one's destined partner. This is a marriage given by God.
In addition, there are some clay figurines who are "free and easy" in nature, and will break free from their marriage red rope, dragging half of the rope and flying around.
Occasionally encounter clay figurines in the same situation. When the red rope is put together, there is a fire with dry wood, and when the red rope is broken, there is a dewy love.
It is actually not difficult for Yuelao to fulfill the request of the heavenly general just now.
You only need to tie the red rope of the general to that fairy directly, and even if it becomes a marriage, generally speaking, there will be no karmic backlash.
But Yuelao had to consider the background of the fairy in Yaochi.
Hundreds of years ago, the Queen Mother sent people to reprimand us, but now, we must never dare to do such illegal things to the fairies of Yaochi...
In fact, Yuelao was originally just a celestial monk, but he was one of the first batch of immortal gods to defect to New Heaven.
Having served for ten thousand years, Yuelao has realized the many benefits of this immortal position, so he is also conscientious and does not dare to slack off in the slightest.
But the problem is, nowadays, more and more heavenly gods have learned the secret of the red line, and also know that he can change the red line as Yue Lao;
His small marriage hall, every now and then, someone sneaks in sneakily...
Some are officials in the same palace, and they really can't get rid of their feelings;
And some people think of getting married by giving gifts, Yuelao will never accept... What kind of gift is more important than the merit reward you get from serving in the heavenly court
But there is another situation, that is, Yuelao can't, and dare not refuse, that is, those old Taoists who are too powerful and have too strong background, their priesthood is just a little fairy in front of such big bosses, such as...
"Master!"
Outside the hall, two young boys with shofar braids and festive attire rushed in hastily, shouting:
"The Archmage is here! We are almost at the front of the palace!"
Yuelao's spirit was shaken, he got up quickly, and quickly walked towards the front of the hall.
This great mage is a remarkable figure, the only direct disciple of the leader of the human religion, the Taiqing sage, his own way is unfathomable, and behind him is Taiqing Laozi!
Because Lao Tzu is a brother of the Sanqing masters, although this great master entered the small courtyard of Kunlun Mountain a little later, he was the first disciple of the interpretation, Guang Chengzi who hit the golden bell in the Yuxu Palace, and many disciples of the Jiejiao. Taoist Bao, Qi Zun called out senior brother.
True Daoist elder brother.
The great mage does not have a clear dao name, because the sage of Taiqing did not give it to him, lest he be involved in great karma;
Because he was called the great mage in the [Xuandu] under the control of the Taiqing sage, over time, this master also accepted such a title——
Master Xuandu!
Since then, the word Xuandu can refer to the head disciple of the Renjiao, and it also has the meaning of "place name".
Yuelao's heart is very clear, this person is the first disciple, but he is not the same as the few registered disciples of the Taiqing sage!
Because the Heavenly Court has just risen and its strength is weak, the Grand Master Xuandu has also temporarily lived in the Tushita Palace during these days...
After all, if some small things like Daluo and Jinxian come to heaven to make trouble, it's not good for the saint to take action himself, and Xuandu will just take action to destroy them.
Before and after, this archmage also came to Yuelao's gate several times, of course Yuelao understood what he was doing.
Yuelao stepped out of the palace gate quickly, and when he looked up, he saw a young Taoist floating on the clouds not far away.
Look at this man, wearing a black Taoist robe, his face is unclear but very upright;
He is tall and tall, with Taoist robes dancing lightly, without any jade ornaments on his body, but it gives people a sense of innocence like uncut jade, which is the temperament that can only be possessed by extremely advanced Taoism.
Master Xuandu is said to be one of the first batch of human beings in the world. He has no father or mother. He was made of clay by Nuwa Empress.
Before reaching the front of the hall, the archmage bowed his hands to Yuelao and said with a smile, "How is Yuelao doing recently?"
"Well, well, well."
Yuelao nodded repeatedly, if other people didn't know, they would think that the righteous god of heaven was hunched.
"Master, please...or do you like last time?"
"Thank you, Yuelao," Master Xuandu said with a gentle smile, stepped straight into the Yuelao Hall, and followed Yuelao to the apse.
Entering the courtyard of the apse, the front is a mysterious starry sky.
Yuelao held a bonsai and shook it gently, a starlight flew from the starry sky, hovering in front of the two of them.
This bonsai is actually an acquired merit and virtue - the acacia tree.
The starlight faded, and they were divided into five piles of clay figurines. Each pile was of different sizes, and there were several words condensed by starlight on each pile, which were classified into different categories.
For example, the pile on the far left has three large characters written on it, Duxianmen.
The other few piles read 'Xiaoyao Xianzong', 'Zizaimen'... In fact, they are several Daoist schools of Renjiao.
Xuandu sighed lightly, and said with a smile, "How much have you accomplished in the past thousand years?"
Yue Lao bowed his head beside him and said: "According to your instructions, if you find a marriage, you will make it happen;
In the past thousand years, a total of 362 couples have been formed in these immortal sects. "
Master Xuandu nodded slightly, and said in a gentle voice, "Well, yes, how many new people were born?"
"This...you have to go to the underworld to check the roster, we only care about marriage here."
Xuandu couldn't help but laugh, he likes to squint his eyes when he smiles, and his smile is quite warm.
"I forgot about it, don't blame Yuelao.
Alas, the teacher really gave me a difficult problem. He wanted the teaching to flourish moderately, but he didn't let me accept students..."
Xuan Du sighed with his hands behind his back, and glanced over, "This is the only way to do it.
Whether Yuelao can bring out the marriage that is about to be completed recently, I see how many there are. "
"Yes, Archmage, please wait a moment."
The bonsai in Yuelao's hand shook again, and soon dozens of clay figurines flew forward for a while. The distance between the clay figurines was different according to their relationship and the probability of marriage.
Each clay figurine has one or two red strings on its body, and there may be three or four more, but not too many.
Some people have long love, so the red rope will be longer;
Some people have short relationships, so the red rope is shorter.
Soon, Master Xuandu's eyes were attracted by the four clay figurines leaning together, and he took two steps forward, looking at the four clay figurines under the word Duxianmen.
Yuelao laughed beside him and said, "This is the power of three stars to support the moon, good luck."
Master Xuandu nodded slightly and stared closely for a while.
Look at the great master, there are a little red threads on his wrists and ankles, but the red string just got a thread...
Some people are like this. It must be that this person teaches the virtuous to focus on cultivating the Tao and does not want to meddle in worldly affairs. "
"It's really a waste," Xuan Du looked at the three red ropes floating around the clay figurine, and said with a smile, "Can Yuelao help him to lengthen the red rope so that he can connect it to the other three red ropes?"
"This, of course, but Archmage, we can only help, it's not easy to force it..."
"Let's go with the flow, and at the same time, add a little help."
"Hey, my little god will do it."
At that moment, Yuelao lifted up the potted acacia tree and tapped it lightly on the clay figurine.
At the same time, Dongsheng Shenzhou Du Xianmen, in the alchemy room of Little Qiongfeng.
Li Changshou, who had just taken a bath and was worrying about the new alchemy stove, suddenly had some unsuitable images in his heart.
"Um?"
Li Changshou chuckled, and instantly expelled the image in his heart.
In the back hall of Yuelao Temple, the acacia tree slowly climbed up, and the clay figurine came out of thin air...
Take a step back.
"Eh?"
Yuelao frowned, changed direction, and continued poking with the small bonsai acacia tree.
In the alchemy room of Little Qiongfeng, Li Changshou had pictures in his heart, all of which were a combination of past and future, such as the junior uncle in sailor uniform, the junior junior sister in school uniform, and...
Uh, how could I fantasize about being poisonous and wearing a mecha
"The heart of the Tao can be solidified, but the illusion is indestructible!"
The image in his heart was instantly shattered, Li Changshou shook his head, and continued to think about the new alchemy furnace.
In the Yuelao Palace, the acacia tree struck, and the clay figurine slightly twisted to the left.
"Hi! I will!"
Yuelao stared, grabbed the acacia tree and changed direction again, pointing at the clay figurine, this time... the clay figurine... did a backflip, and dodged nimbly.
"Hahaha!"
The great mage Xuandu next to him couldn't help laughing out loud.
Yue Lao's complexion suddenly turned ugly, he actually made a fool of himself in front of the archmage, it was such a trivial matter!
"big!"
Yuelao touched the acacia tree, and the acacia tree swelled instantly, and its branches and leaves rushed towards the clay figurine.
Li Changshou on the ground frowned, and a beautiful alchemy stove appeared in his heart. When the alchemy stove was opened, several beautiful figures flew over...
Li Changshou sat down cross-legged directly, and simply began to recite the meditation mantra;
Just kidding, he never saw anything in his previous life
Maybe, after becoming a fairy, my mood is unstable, so that I always think about these things.
What's the use of being happy for a while
At least live long before thinking about these things! That is a long time without shame and shame!
No, longevity doesn't necessarily guarantee self-protection... It's better not to mess with dispensable karma like marriage.
Li Changshou shouted in a low voice: "Quiet!"
The clay figurines in the Yuelao Hall instantly made a series of responses.
step back...
dodge...
jump...
Jump left and right...
Thomas spins...
Let the branches of the acacia tree come whipping all over the sky, and naturally not a single leaf touches the body.
Yuelao was so anxious that he was sweating profusely, and was almost so angry that his breath surged against him;
The archmage beside him smiled and said, "I'll help Yuelao."
At that moment, starlight glowed in his left hand, with yin and yang in his palm, and he grabbed at the clay figurine from a distance.
Yuelao stared, and was about to yell 'no', but it was half a moment late, the archmage had already pinched the clay figurine's left arm.
but…
Click!
The clay figurine's left arm was broken in an instant, and its body jumped out nimbly. After coming to a stop, it made a pose of "come here".
There was a dead silence on the whole screen.
"Archmaster... can't, don't force it..."
"Hey, can this thing be made up?"
"It is possible, but it is very time-consuming. Fortunately, there is no red string on his left arm, so it is easier to repair it..."
"Then Lao Yue is old.
Well, Yuelao, you are busy, I will come back after a while, and bring you some elixir refined by Laojun...
This kid pays attention, please, please, please! "
After saying that, the Great Master Xuandu hurriedly made a salute, turned around and left, and disappeared after two steps, leaving Yuelao alone in a mess for a while.
A moment ago, Du Xianmen Pill Room.
Li Changshou frowned tightly, his heart was full of chaos.
He shook his head helplessly, stretched his hand into his bosom, and took out one of the hole cards for him to calm down in the No. 6 treasure bag.
A scroll was slowly opened, and inside was a row of delicately painted, heavily powdered makeup, dressed in neon clothes... old women...
Li Changshou watched carefully, and muttered in his mouth: "True feelings are not only to envy her youthful appearance, but also to accept her nagging when she gets old."
In an instant, the pictures in my heart were shattered one by one, and I felt at ease for a while.
"However, how old is Xiuxian?"
With a contented smile, he put away the precious "Picture of the Empress Baimei", and his mind immediately became much more peaceful.
Men, you should be tough on yourself.
In other words, it's fine for me to think of my junior sister and junior martial uncle occasionally, why would I think of poison
Tsk, poisonous.
