56 Li Xuan Say goodbye to Laojun and come back to Maozhai to search for his soul and live in his body, but his hair has long been gone, and his apprentice Yang Zi has gone. I only see where the wages are accumulated. The heater was boiling and the smoke was silent, and I realized that my body had been burned. Li Xuan deeply complained that his disciples had to bear the alliance, and his wandering soul was helpless everywhere, and he shouted out of thin air day and night.
57 Li Xuan's soul walked to the side of the mountain and saw a beggar's body lying on the ground, and he must have starved to death. Li Xuan suddenly remembered the verse that Laojun gave him when he was leaving: "If you want to get the old body, you will meet a new face." Only then did he realize the meaning of it. It seemed that the beggar's corpse was his new face.
58 So Li Xuan's wandering soul attached to the beggar's body. Li Xuan stood up and looked at himself at this time, but he had a dirty face, his belly exposed, and his foot was limping, leaning against a purple bamboo crutch. Li Xuan turned the bamboo stick in his hand into an iron stick, and since then, people have called it "Iron Gun Li".
59 However, Tieguai Li knew the difficulties of his apprentice Yang Zishou's body but his death, and he also knew that his mother was dead, so he was afraid that he would regret it for the rest of his life. So, he carried the iron crutch in his hand and the gourd on his shoulders and walked straight to the Yang family. I saw Yang Zi choking and choking, stamping his feet and beating his chest, stroking the coffin for eternal regret; when he cried to the pain, he wanted to draw his sword and commit suicide.
60 Tieguai Li stepped forward to stop Yang Zi and deliberately asked him why he wanted to die. Yang Zi told him that he would commit suicide by guarding his master's body but his mother was not dead because of his illness. After that, he still wanted to commit suicide.
61 Tieguai Li stopped Yang Zi again and said that he had been taught the undead pill by Yi Ren, and might be able to save Yang Zi's mother. Upon hearing this, Yang Zi hurriedly knelt down and begged for medicine. Tieguai Li took a pill from the gourd and gave it to Yang Zi, and ordered him to mix it with water and pour it into his mother's mouth.
62 After a while, Yang Zi's mother began to breathe, her face turned red, and she sighed and sat up, as if she was not sick all the time. Yang Zi's family was extremely surprised and knelt down to thank Tieguai Li and asked for his name.
63 Tieguai Li smiled and said to Yang Zi: "I am your master. Because you burned my body, I attached it to someone else's body. This is not your fault. Your mother is back today. You can serve my mother at home and let her live a long life." As he said that, he gave Yang Zi another pill and said, "Take this to prolong your life. You and my master and disciple will still have a day to meet."
64 When Yang Zi wanted to ask again, Tieguai Li suddenly turned into a breeze and left. Yang Zi could only look at the sky and thank him.
65 Later, Yang Zi took the pills given by Tieguai Li to serve his mother for the rest of his life, so he went to the old place that year to look for Tieguai Li. Two hundred years later, Tieguai Li led Yang Zi to ascend together.
66 But after Tieguai Li got married, he returned to Laojun's place. Laojun smiled at him and said, "This time, you finally realized the truth." At that moment, a banquet was held to celebrate him and all the fun was over.
67 On this day, Laojun went out to travel, Tieguai Li joked with the fairy boys, saying, "The green cow is here, let's ride for a while and have fun, how about it?" The fairy boys all said yes. So Tieguai Li stepped forward and untied the reins of the green cow and was about to ride on it.
68 Unexpectedly, the green bull was shocked when he saw Tieguai Li's appearance was limp and evil, and suddenly broke free from the reins. Just a sound of sound like the sky collapsed and the earth cracked, and the green cow escaped from the sky.
69 Tieguai Li and Xiantong chased each other for half a day but didn't catch up with Qingniu. They came back to complain to each other. At this time, Laojun returned and asked them what they were quarreling about. A fairy boy told him about the incident.
70 Laojun was very angry and scolded them. He ordered two boys involved to blame, exiled and surrendered to Tiekui Li Xiafan, and was punished for his merits before he could return. Then, people were sent to the world to find the green cow.
71 But he said that green bull spirit had to break off the reins, like a dragon returning to the sea, like a tiger returning to the mountain, and even went to the Western Regions. Suddenly, I heard the joy and the sound of the sky, and the music and singing were pleasant. When the green bull spirit looked back, it turned out to be the place of the Great Qin State. I saw the lights there, the smoke curled up, the dancing sleeves were graceful, and the singing was melodious. It is indeed the bliss of the Wang family and the great joy of the world.
72 The green bull spirit saw this scene and suddenly felt stubborn and said to himself: "I am so happy here. If I don't live here, where else can I go?" So he used his magical powers, first took out the king, and placed it under the pine rock twenty miles away. For a moment, the palace was in full swing, and the queen gave an order, saying that the king was missing.
73Russ, the king flew down from the air, his appearance was just like a lewd harem, no one could tell the truth or false. Only the queen observed his actions and spoke, and recognized his posture as not the real king.
74 The next morning court, the Qingniu Jing was so proud that he was in the court, and no one of the ministers could see it was fake. Only the queen decided that it was not the true king and issued an imperial edict saying that there was something strange in the palace. Another official at the Imperial Heaven reported that the demon star was extremely urgent infringing on the main star. The ministers had no choice but to doubt it, although they were suspicious, they did not dare to say that the king is now a stranger, so they had to go out to find Allah.
75 Soon, a woodcutter reported that under the pine rock twenty miles away, there was a man with a crown and clothes, calling him the ministers to rescue him. When the ministers heard this, they all rushed to welcome the carriage.
76 The green bull spirit was furious in the palace and actually drove the queen into the cold palace. When the other concubines saw that the green bull was brave, they could only let him be impolite and humiliate him. No one dared to say that it was a fake king again.
77 And the ministers rescued the emperor, but they saw the king standing on a high steep on the rock and could not come down. So, someone was sent to set up a shelf and reach Shanyan, and ordered several powerful soldiers to tie the basket with ropes. The king sat in the basket before slowly putting it down.
78 The ministers bowed and apologized, how did the king get here? The king said that there was a monster who came to the office and carried him here in the second update last night. When asked about the situation in the palace, the ministers reported that the monster is now pretending to be the king and is now in the official position. The queen was imprisoned in the cold palace for criticizing the monster. After hearing this, the king sent the Yulin Army to the palace to capture the monster.
79 With an order, the soldiers of the Yulin City were shaking the sky, and the flags shone brightly on the sun. The officials were looking for the officials to advance. The king and ministers then supervised the formation.
80 As soon as he arrived in front of the palace, he suddenly heard a loud shout from the palace. The green bull spirit released a fire, burning the soldiers in the Yulin, fled in all directions, trampling on each other, and countless dead. The ministers hurriedly protected the king and retreated into the Taimiao.
81 The king saw that the monster had no boundaries and was at a loss. A minister came out to report: "There is a temple of Xuannv ten miles away. Its god is the most spiritual. Your Majesty can fast and pray with all his heart. The goddess of the Xuannv will be able to show his traces and drive away the monsters." The king heard the news and took a bath, wrote a manifesto, and came to the Xuannv Temple in person. Pray for a while and burn the manifesto. The king returned to Taimiao and discussed with his ministers the plan to defeat the demon.
83 However, Xuannv received the manifesto. When he pinched his fingers, he realized that it was the green bull that caused the disaster. He said to himself: "Why did Laojun ignore Yu? This weird thing is to be punished, but it is inconvenient for Laojun." So he sent someone to hand in a letter to tell Laojun, and at the same time he dreamed of the king: "You can attack tomorrow, and I have my own way to control monsters.""
84 The king had the dream of Xuannv, and did not dare to neglect him. He ordered 500,000 troops to surround the harem. The Qingniu Jing was doing the trick in the official position. He heard that the soldiers were surrounded on all sides, and he sprayed a mouthful of magic water and turned into a fire wheel rocket. Just as he was about to burn the Qin soldiers, a woman suddenly held a water bottle in her hand and sprinkled nectar from the air, and the fire was extinguished.
85 The Qingniu Jing looked up and saw that it was Xuannv, and hurriedly wanted to change and escape, but Xuannv pointed the sword and showed his true form. He could not escape."
86 And it was said that Laojun was checking the matter of Qingniu in the hall, and suddenly a Xuannv envoy passed a letter. After Laojun read the letter, the educated youth ox was in trouble in Qin State, so he asked the envoy to worship Xuannv, saying that he would send someone to clean up the green ox immediately. Then Xu Jia held the talisman with a lock, and quickly went to Daqin to collect the green cow.
87 Xu Jia took the order and went to Daqin, when Qingniu and Xuannv fought. Xu Jia stepped forward and shouted loudly, threw the talisman on the back of the cow, tied it out of the palace gate, threw it eastward, and the palace was all calm. The king returned to the palace to rectify the matter, welcomed the queen, and appointed Xuannv to hold a banquet to celebrate the achievements without a detailed description.
88 However, it was said that because of the Qingniu, Li, was denounced to the mortal world to make meritorious service and atone for his sins. He turned into an old man, carrying a gourd, and applied medicine in Runan City. If the sick ask for it, they will be immediately tested.
89 Tieguai Li hung a pot every day at the market. When the market was stopped, he jumped into the pot. No one in the market found it.
90 There is a person named Feichangfang , who is a small official who manages the market. That day he was sitting upstairs quietly and suddenly saw the strangeness of the old man Shi Yao. So he worshiped wine again and asked him why he was in the invisible pot. The old man said, "You come again tomorrow."
91 The next day, Fei Changfang came to visit again. The old man led him into the pot together. But there is a main hall inside, with fine wine and delicacies in it. After the two of them finished drinking, the old man told the eldest wife not to tell others.
92 From then on, the two people often dated. One day, the old man was a guest on the building of Fei Chang's house. He told the Changfang, "I am an immortal and was punished to go down from the realm for making a mistake. Now I am going back. I have good wine downstairs, please bring it up and say goodbye to you."
93 Fee Changfang sent someone to get the wine, but he couldn't take it and asked ten people to carry it, but it still couldn't. The old man went downstairs with a smile and lifted it up with one hand. Looking at the wine-holding utensil, it was only more than one liter in size. After drinking it for a long time, the wine-holding utensil still couldn't see the bottom.
94 Fei Changfang wanted to follow the old man to ask for advice, but he was worried that his family would not let him go. The old man knew his intention, so he folded a bamboo pole, which was as long as the long house, and hung it behind the long house. When the family saw him, he was obviously the eldest son, so they thought he had hanged himself to death. So, the family cried and sent the bamboo pole to the funeral. The eldest wife stood next to her family, but no one could see him.
95 So Fei Changfang followed the old man into the deep mountains and covered with thorny valleys. The old man left the eldest room alone among the tigers. The eldest room was not afraid, and sat upright on the stone and meditated, nourished his energy and cultivated his true nature.
96 The old man asked the Changfang to stay indoors again, and hung a ten thousand pound stone on his head with a rotten rope. There was also a group of mice to bite the rope and was about to break. The Changfang was not panicked, calm and calm, sitting on the ground. The old man said: "You can teach me."
97 Finally, the old man ordered his long room to go to the toilet to drown for food. The dung was everywhere and the smell was very bad. This time, the eldest house felt disgusting and failed to do it. The old man sighed, "You should have achieved the truth, but unfortunately it is only a little bit."
98 Fei Changfang wanted to go home, so the old man gave him a crutch and said, "Ride it and you can get home in an instant. When you arrive, just throw it in the grass." He also gave him a talisman, saying that using it can drive ghosts and gods.
99 Fei Changfang rode on the crutch and returned home in a blink of an eye. He threw the crutch into the grass, and saw the wooden stick turn into a dragon and flew into the air.
100 Changfang thought he had only been away from home for a few days, but who knew that it had been more than ten years. The family members only said that he had been dead for a long time, and they were very surprised to see him suddenly return. The eldest wife said, "The one who buried that day was a bamboo stick." So the family dug up the grave and saw that the bamboo stick was still inside.
101 From then on, Fei Changfang can treat all diseases, whip all ghosts, and drive the community. Someone saw him sitting there alone and asked him why he was angry. He said, "I'm scolding the evil spirit."
102 Once, Fei Chang's house invited him and said he was going to Song City, thousands of miles away to buy fish. He left for a moment and then came back with the fresh fish. On the same day, someone saw the long house in Song City, thousands of miles away.
103 A man named Huan Jing once asked Fei Changfang for learning. One day, Fei Changfang said to Hengjing: "On September 9th, if there is a major disaster in your home, you can make a bag, put the dogwood inside and tie it on your arm, climb the mountain and drink chrysanthemum wine, and you can eliminate this disaster."
104 Hengjing acted as Fei Changfang's instructions, and put the dogwood on his body, climbing the mountain to look far away. The family returned home at night and saw that all the cattle, sheep, chickens and dogs at home died suddenly on the ground.
105 One day, Fei Changfang lost the immortal talisman sent by Tieguai Li, and was killed by all the ghosts.
106 Besides, after Tieguai Li surrendered to the poor and weak, saved all living beings, and had fulfilled his merits, he was able to return to the place of Laojun and resolve the cause and effect. Later, he became the leader of the immortals in the upper eight caves, often riding on Yunqiong Island and crossing the He Yaotian. Every time he comes to the mortal world, he becomes accustomed to beggars and visits the sufferings of the people.
107 There is a large family in Nanzhong County who holds a great merit ritual. The two boys holding the license in the Qiao Tower suddenly talked: "In front of the house where the merits will be established tomorrow, there is a beggar with a rotten feet, Tieyang and Li Laoxian. Let's go and see him." This happened to be heard by an updater and felt very strange.
108 The next day, the updater carefully investigated and saw a rotten beggar who was roasting the fire by the stove. The husband asked the beggar to beggar for his salvation and said in every respect: "I heard the two boys from Qiaolou say yesterday, so I know that the great immortal is here." The beggar thought for a moment and told him to follow him to save him.
109 The beggar crawled straight into the stove, sparks shining everywhere, and disappeared in the stove fire. The husband was full of doubts and feared that he would be burned to his body by fire, so he did not dare to follow.
110 On the way back, the updater saw the beggar walking in front of him, hurriedly chased him and asked for help again. The beggar said: "You go back first and nail the second boy in the watchtower tower for me. I will come to meet me on the bridge tomorrow. At that time, I have a boat to pick you up. You jump on the boat to save you. But don't be afraid anymore."
111 The updater returned to the watchtower and nailed the second boy. The two children screamed in pain at night, and kept shouting and scolding the husband, all over their faces full of resentment.
112 The next day, the updater ran to the bridge early in the morning and waited for the beggar to pick him up. From Chen to noon, there were no beggars. The updater was secretly complaining, but a small boat floated from upstream to under the bridge, leaving no one.
113 At this time, the beggar also came to the shore, pointed at the boat, and asked the updater: "Why haven't you boarded the boat yet?" The updater looked at the boat carefully and said, "How can such a small boat be able to bear people?"
114 The beggar was Tieguai Li, and sighed, "You have to think too much, you can't stop it." After that, he jumped into the boat, rushed through the wind and waves, and jumped into the clouds. I saw the seven immortals including Han Zhongli, Lu Dongbin, Zhang Guolao, etc., waiting in the clouds. All the immortals drove the clouds straight up into the sky, and disappeared in an instant.
