Chapter 738 Legendary Story
When the foxes all rushed to Gong Mengbi's fox house, they realized that there were too many people coming.
Foxes gathered outside the fox house, wagging their tails. They were so huge that it looked like students were rebelling.
Now no one dared to go in first, otherwise the scene would look too much like breaking into the house and interrogating on the spot.
At the critical moment, the gentlemen still had the advantage. Even though they started later, they were ahead when they arrived at the fox house.
Seeing this scene, he comforted her, "I know you are curious, let's go in and ask."
Even gentlemen Ning Caichen, Ma Junji and Xu Boguang came along. Such legendary stories of gods inviting each other and performing exercises in Tianfu are events that have only been passed down since ancient times.
Several gentlemen entered the courtyard first. Mr. Hei was on duty today, so the gentlemen paid their respects to Mr. Hei first, and only after Mr. Hei gave permission did they go in.
Gong Mengbi was reading scriptures in front of the corridor. When he saw them, he asked them to sit down.
The scripture was placed upside down on the desk, with "Seven Revisions of Scripture Notes" written on the cover, which seemed to be a commentary.
Kang Wen took the lead with dignity, Ning Caichen and others stood on both sides, looking at Gong Mengbi with eyes that were half excited and half respectful.
"Master, what happened after you went to heaven?"
"The sky has cleared up today, but is the Master practicing in heaven?"
The gentlemen were all curious about Tianfu and the gods in heaven, and Gong Mengbi was no hesitation in answering their questions.
Then I discovered that the walls of the courtyard were covered with fox vines, the trees outside the courtyard were covered with fox flowers, and there were also fox fruits that had crawled out of the ground and hid among the flowers and plants. They were all very focused and interested.
Gong Mengbi laughed and said, "Speaking of yesterday, it was also a strange sight."
Gong Mengbi picked out and talked about a series of things including the Wind Department's cordial invitation, the green dragon pulling the carriage and the two gods accompanying it, the sky boat crossing the void and the eight winds maneuvering freely, the fragrant wind leading the way and the immortals and gods performing magic, the combing of the wind to regulate the qi, and the clarity of heaven and earth.
Everyone was fascinated by what they heard, as if they had followed Gong Mengbi to heaven and met the gods.
The little foxes and other creatures in the countryside are always full of imagination and yearning for these gods in the sky. If they were only imaginations before, now when the fox master who really travels with the gods is right in front of them, they feel as if the fantasy has become reality.
At this time, the foxes finally realized that their understanding of Gong Mengbi's value was still too low.
Gong Mengbi concluded by saying, "Now that we have finished the story, why don't you go eat?"
The foxes woke up as if from a dream. Some burrowed into the ground, some jumped over the wall, some climbed trees, and soon disappeared from Gong Mengbi's sight.
Several gentlemen could not stop praising him, saying with admiration: "Master, you are in harmony with the gods, and you are no longer an ordinary person."
"The gods in heaven are the gods in heaven, and I am still the fox master of the Fox Courtyard."
The gentlemen also stood up and said goodbye with a smile. They also had to hurry to eat, otherwise those foxes would not leave any food for them.
There are no secrets among foxes, and each of them has the potential to be a rumormonger.
Within a month, there was no fox in Wuning County who didn't know about Gong Mengbi's legendary story. And not only the foxes, but also the immortals and gods who were more well-informed knew about it.
Those who are further away will also know soon.
With such a golden sign hanging there, there will be very few foxes who will not listen to advice.
Gong Mengbi called on foxes to return to the wild, to spread the Dharma and establish the faith of the Goddess of Mount Tai in the countryside where the imperial power could not reach and the official sacrifices could not arrive.
These gray areas, or areas that have been disregarded or even neglected, are precisely where desires arise and need guidance.
If foxes don't go to these places, other demons and evil spirits will go there, and the common people will suffer.
Sun Wenyuan understood the reason and agreed with the Master's philosophy. Besides, it would be better to give the incense to the foxes rather than to the demons and evil spirits. At least the foxes follow the way of Taishan Goddess and will not harm people.
He was a fox with some knowledge, which he stole from an old scholar in Shiqiao Village School. However, after studying in the Fox Academy, he was given new ideas.
Sun Wenyuan was not young anymore, even if he transformed into a human form, he was still half an old man. It was not that he did not like young and beautiful bodies, but his talent was limited, his body and mind were old, and when he entered the practice, he could not change, and it became an obstacle.
He didn't get into Tianhu Academy, but he was still willing to do something. One was to prepare for old age, and the other was to accumulate virtue. If he didn't consider this life, he would consider the next life.
There is no community god in Shiqiao Township, but there is a shaman. People usually ask this shaman for help in weddings, funerals, and exorcisms.
Sun Wenyuan was originally unwilling to deal with them. The fox was not some powerful old monster in the mountains, so it would retreat if it met a powerful character.
This family of sorcerers had very dirty hands and knew two kinds of witchcraft passed down from their ancestors, so Sun Wenyuan would not have the upper hand in a fight. Moreover, their family also had some prestige in the village. If a fight broke out and they called the villagers over, they might be beaten to death with a hoe.
Sun Wenyuan had lived in Shiqiao Township for a long time and dug a hole under the wall of the old scholar to become his neighbor. The old scholar looked down on those sorcerers, who were so powerful that they could only deceive fools.
But Sun Wenyuan himself was a man of supernatural powers, and he did not dare to look down on the sorcerer. He knew that it was better to be prepared, so he always had to find out the news first.
The old scholar's eyesight had been bad for a long time, and he was usually supported by the clan members. Sun Wenyuan waited until it was dark, climbed out from the wall, and when he saw the farmer delivering food, he blew a breath and performed a magic.
The farmer was thinking about delivering food to the old scholar. The wind blew and his eyes were dazzled. He blinked and saw the old scholar standing at the door. He took the bamboo basket and said to him, "Give it to me."
He didn't think about it, handed the basket over, and said, "Uncle, I'm going home first. I'll come back to deliver food tomorrow morning."
Sun Wenyuan held up a bamboo basket covered with coarse cloth. Inside the basket was a dish of pickled vegetables mixed with lard and a bowl of porridge. He knocked on the door and called out, "Uncle, I'm here to deliver the food."
The old scholar's voice came from inside: "Come in."
After entering the door, there was only a bean-sized lamp on. An old scholar buried his head in pondering the words in a book. His hair was completely gray, and it was sparse in the light of the lamp.
Sun Wenyuan put down the bamboo basket, placed the food on the dining table, and said, "Uncle, let's eat first."
The old scholar walked over slowly with a lamp in his hand and ate the porridge with pickles.
"busy?"
"I am a little confused, I wonder if Uncle can answer it for me."
The old scholar looked up, but the light from the lamp was limited, and Sun Wenyuan was standing far away, so although the old scholar looked a little confused, he didn't take it seriously and asked, "What's the confusion?"
"Uncle, do you dislike that sorcerer in the west?"
"They pretend to be ghosts, try to steal money and kill people, none of them are good people at all." The old scholar put down his chopsticks and cursed, "Don't associate with them."
"Killing for money?"
"If a sick person says he is possessed by evil spirits, can talisman water save his life? Can incense ash save his life?" The old scholar got angry and spoke in a very stern tone, but suddenly he paused.
He looked at Sun Wenyuan and warned him, "Don't go and recruit them."
Sun Wenyuan knew that the old scholar couldn't see clearly, but he was still frightened by his eyes and said hesitantly, "I know."
The old scholar waved his hand and said, "Go back."
He didn't want to speak, so Sun Wenyuan had to bow and leave.
The old scholar sat at the table in a trance. After a while, the door was suddenly pushed open and the nephew shouted at the door: "Uncle, I forgot to take the basket."
The old scholar waved his hand impatiently and said, "Take it away."
