I am a fairy

Chapter 181 Not Like the Human World
Over the Yaohua Pond, the moonlight poured into the ten-mile clear water like a pillar, the water waves stirred up silver waves, and the painted boat seemed to be sailing on the Milky Way.

The royal palace was decorated with splendid ornaments everywhere, with golden lamps and silver cups shining brightly, and the air was filled with fragrance and music.

There was a singing girl on the pond singing the spring song from "Midnight Songs of the Four Seasons", her melodious voice reaching the sky.

"The spring breeze is full of love, blowing my silk dress open."

Everything shows a prosperous scene.

Yaohua Pool tonight.

Not like the human world.

But at this moment, all eyes were focused on Linghua Jun in the palace.

The figure wearing a cloud-patterned robe and the mask of a god waved his hand, and a dark shadow fell from the sky and poured into the palace.

It's extremely fast and fleeting.

"call out!"

Along with the sound, all the candles in the hall flickered together.

All of a sudden, everyone's heart tightened. The flickering lights seemed like some kind of foreshadowing and prelude, reminding everyone in the hall that something miraculous was about to happen, and that something that did not belong to this world would intrude into this prosperous feast.

Shake sleeves and raise hands.

Linghua Jun raised his sword and chanted a spell.

"The four directions, the earth mother and the earth god, now call on the land, and the divine power is revealed."

"Follow the order of Lord Yunzhong, hurry up and obey the command!"

As the first word of the curse sounded.

Then shadows were seen coming from all directions and sneaking into the hall.

The shadow passed through pillars and screens, then swam across the earth, gradually converging towards the center of the hall.

"what!"

"Something, something is coming in."

"Get out of the way, get out of the way, don't block it."

"I can't see anything but a shadow."

In the palace.

The emperor, princes, civil and military officials were seated in a row. Some nobles looked around expectantly, some officials looked up in astonishment, and some women in red makeup covered their mouths with round fans.

Some of the guards drew their swords, while others hurriedly dodged, causing chaos.

The eunuchs nervously surrounded the emperor and the prince, and the palace maids huddled in the corner in fear.

Finally, one could see figures, some tall, some short, appearing one after another throughout the hall, some projected on the screens, some projected on the pillars, or standing in front of the walls.

However, only the shadows of these figures can be seen, but not the real bodies.

The gods' gaze swept across the numerous figures, and it seemed that Lord Linghua was also a little surprised. He did not expect that so many ghosts and gods would come after chanting a spell.

"The capital is indeed different from other places. There are more earth gods from all four directions and mountain masters from all eight directions than in other places."

Linghua Jun finally stood up from the altar, looked at those figures and asked.

"Is Huajing Tubo here?"

Finally, amid everyone's horrified and incredible gazes.

Under the light and shadow, a figure on the wall gradually solidified in full view of everyone, and was dyed from dark black to various colors.

In a moment, a person who looked lifelike, like a real person, yet seemed hazy and unreal, appeared in front of everyone.

It is not standing on the ground, but floating in the air.

"Greetings to Lord Linghua!"

Everyone in the hall gasped in shock, and many of them turned pale with fright as they looked at the feet that had not yet touched the ground.

Looking at the ghost god carefully, he was wearing a bright red ghost god robe, with a ghost god mask that looked like jade but not jade on his face, and metal hat wings spread out behind his head.

It was really shocking that a person could appear out of thin air like this.

Linghua Jun asked the ghost: "What kind of wind will blow later?"

That ghost god is Huajing Tubo.

After the greeting, he stood up and replied, "In half an hour, there will be a southwest wind, with strong gusts, sand and dust blocking the eyes, and the trees shaking and the pond wrinkling."

Linghua Jun: "Is it raining?"

Huajing Tubo: "It will rain in an hour, and it will rain continuously for two hours and three quarters before it stops."

The words between Lord Linghua and the ghosts and gods echoed in the palace. Everyone was silent, with only the candlelight swaying, causing the shadows to sway.

But as the candlelight flickered, the two figures became more unpredictable.

The officials and dignitaries in Huajing had never seen such a scene.

For a moment, they couldn't tell whether they were in the underworld where gods, ghosts, demons and monsters were rampant, or in the world of the living illuminated by candlelight.

Until Linghua Jun nodded and said.

"In that case, there's no rush."

Done.

Linghua Jun sat down and waved his hand.

As he waved his hands, layers of spiritual light spread out from his hands, like the sun sweeping away the haze.

For an instant.

Layer upon layer of shadows dissipated, the underworld of gods, ghosts, demons and monsters retreated, and everything returned to the world of the living.

Capture the gods and send away the ghosts, they will come when you call them and leave when you wave them away.

Linghua Jun sat down gently, leaned back on the couch, and listened quietly to the "Midnight Songs of the Four Seasons" outside.

It seemed as if he was really just summoning the ghosts and gods to ask when it would rain.

The purpose is to watch the various performances for a while longer and listen to the songs of the four seasons that are filled with the prosperous atmosphere of the world.

Everyone then came to their senses, as if time had started to flow again, and they exclaimed in surprise.
-
the other side.

During the whole process, the emperor witnessed this scene of summoning gods and sending away ghosts.

Although he did not speak a word from beginning to end, he was perhaps the most excited and eager person in the hall.

The hands beneath the robe could be seen shaking unconsciously.

He even wanted to pick up the wine glass involuntarily, but his eyes were fixed on the place where the ghost appeared.

however.

As soon as he took a sip, he saw the eunuch next to him come over in fear, kneel on the ground and hold his hands high and said.

"Your Majesty, no!"

"Don't touch this wine."

The emperor then realized that his illness could not be cured by alcohol.

The emperor put down his wine glass and suddenly asked a question.

"Tell me, will there really be wind and rain later?"

The eunuch said, "Since Lord Linghua said there is, there must be."

The emperor smiled and said, "That's right, that's right. Lord Linghua has already said that there will be something later. I am also looking forward to it!"

Although the emperor said this, in fact he did not care from beginning to end whether it would be windy or whether it would rain in an hour, and this was not what he was expecting.

Predicting whether it will be sunny or rainy and knowing the changes in celestial phenomena are no longer very attractive to an emperor who is already old and seriously ill.

But with a spell, Linghua Jun can really summon ghosts and gods.

Or.

It allowed him to see that people could become gods after death, and that they could use magic to reverse yin and yang, life and death.

Nothing could shock an emperor who was terrified of life and death more than this.

Hundreds of operas were performed one after another.

"Midnight Song of the Four Seasons" appears every few intervals, gradually moving from spring to summer.

At the banquet, everyone drank the fairy wine that Lord Linghua brought down from heaven, watched the whirling dance on the "Ming Yue Pool" where the moonlight was leaking to the ground, and listened to the loud singing coming from the moonlight.

As the wine was gradually finished, I became more and more drunk, and I felt more and more as if I had flown from the earth to heaven.

An old man shook his head and said, "Today, today, I really know what the palace in heaven is, and what it means to be different from the human world."

The official with a long beard raised his glass and said: "This immortal wine is indeed extraordinary. It goes down my throat like flying into the clouds, and I don't know where it is."

People who knew each other knelt in front of the table and chatted with each other: "Before coming here, I was still wondering what Linghua Jun looked like, and worried that he was just an ordinary person pretending to be a god. Today, I finally saw what a god is."

Someone nodded: "Linghua Jun is indeed an immortal, a living god or Buddha."

Someone raised his hand: "He is half a god."

Others said: "If you wear the divine image of Yunzhongjun, it means that Yunzhongjun has come to the world."

The female relatives and noble ladies frequently looked in the direction of Linghua Jun and whispered to each other.

"What a pity, it's blocked by the divine mask."

"Have you looked carefully? Linghua Jun's appearance is really unbelievable. Can a person really look like this?"

"I saw it today. It really is a celestial being descending to the mortal world."

"I don't even dare to look at Linghua-jun."

Today's banquet is generally no different from usual banquets.

The only difference is the addition of Linghua Jun.

With the addition of the immortal wine bestowed by Linghua Jun, he raised his hand to draw down the bright moon in the sky, and waved his hand to summon the ghosts and gods on earth. But it was precisely because of these additions that this banquet on earth seemed to have turned into a fairy banquet in Yaochi in an instant, and this palace on earth also turned into a fairy palace in heaven. The strong sense of impact was deeply imprinted in the minds of all the participants.

Not only the people in the palace, but also the people in the pond and the people on the north bank.

Just as the singing and dancing at the "Yao Chi Fairy Banquet" continued, as if the magnificent night of silver moon and golden wind that came into the dream would spread endlessly.

A strong wind suddenly arose.

A strong wind came from the southwest, rippling the waves of the Yaohua Pool.

The wind caused the ships, pleasure boats and colorfully flagged boats to sway constantly, forcing the people on the north bank to shield their eyes from the wind and sand. The wind also blew into the palace, dispelling the drunkenness of the guests.

At this moment, "Midnight Songs of the Four Seasons" also happened to sing the song of autumn.

"A cool breeze blows in the autumn night, and the sky is high with bright stars and moon."

at this time.

The singer on the boat used his wide sleeves to block the distant autumn wind, and Linghua Jun in the palace raised his cup to look at the stars and the moon in the sky.

After drinking the last cup, Linghua Jun looked at everyone.

"The wind blows in the autumn night, and the weather turns cooler."

"Danggui."

The emperor stood up and spoke.

"Lord Linghua is truly a man of great powers. I have really broadened my horizons today."

Linghua Jun: "It is Yunzhong Jun's magical power and might, not mine."

With Lord Linghua's words, "The autumn night wind blows and the weather is cool," the banquet at Yaohua Pool tonight came to an end.

Under the watchful eyes and welcoming farewell of civil and military officials and the worship of the people, Linghua Jun's throne and the emperor's carriage left Yaohua Pool and Bishui Garden.

As Linghua Jun's magic frame moved away, the bright moonlight that fell from high above also returned to the height little by little.

"The moonlight is gone."

"What did they say was scattered? They were received into heaven."

"The light that Linghua Jun borrowed from the sky will naturally disappear when Linghua Jun is gone."

After seeing this scene, hundreds of officials, nobles, common people and merchants who stayed around Yaohua Pool started another wave of cheers, looking up at the sky for a long time and refusing to disperse.

It was as if he wanted to see where the moonlight came from and see clearly what was in the sky.

After a while.

The civil and military officials finally began to disperse and return to their mansions.

The people on the north bank also dispersed one after another, and the stalls surrounding the gate of Bishuiyuan were finally closed.

Some people were returning home in carriages surrounded by servants, some were walking home with their families holding lanterns, and some merchants were carrying their loads on their shoulders and hurrying on their way in the wind.

Halfway.

Along with the west wind that night, a drizzle suddenly came and fell in Huajing City.

"Clatter!"

Raindrops fell in the city, on the water, and on the people on the road.

Those who walk slowly or whose homes are farther away.

He was immediately soaked like a drowned rat.

But the crowd didn't take it seriously, instead they all burst into laughter.

People did not feel that the rain was unexpected at all, but seemed to think it came at the right time, just as they had expected.

"Look, it's raining. I knew it was coming." Someone stuck his head out of the carriage and kept nodding his head, with a smile on his face and an excited expression as if he said it was going to rain.

"Stop, stop, stop quickly, I want to look at the rain." Someone immediately ordered the carriage to stop, then walked out of it, looked up at the rain in the sky, letting it wet his gorgeous clothes.

"Today I am only a hundred feet away from Lord Linghua, which means I have been infected with the immortal spirit." Although he drank a lot of wine, he felt energetic at this moment. Thinking back on what he saw and heard today, he was afraid that he would never forget it in his life.

The emperor's carriage had already entered the imperial city, but before it reached the bedroom, the rain began to fall.

The emperor also stopped on the steps and looked up at the sky.

"Does even the heavens have to respond to Yunzhongjun?"

The eunuchs, temple servants and palace maids around him all knelt down at this time, and the leading eunuch shouted.

"Congratulations to your majesty, congratulations to your majesty."

"With the Imperial Master Linghua, our Wu Dynasty will flourish."

And at the same time.

Linghua Jun's carriage also arrived at the Yunzhong Palace Temple.

This is where she will stay for a long time.

Lord Linghua looked at the Yunzhong Palace Temple that occupied half of the block, and at the servants with lanterns that lined up from the outside to the inside, and then he stepped down from the royal carriage.

As she walked inside, she felt that many of the people and decorations here looked familiar, as if she had returned to Chu.

But she didn't return to the Chu state where she was before, but dreamed of returning to the ancient Chu State.

Linghua Jun looked at the women standing at the entrance of the alley. They were wearing straight-hem robes that were connected from top to bottom, with overlapping hems in bright colors and intricate patterns.

However, the belt around the waist was tied exceptionally tight, as if to show off the slenderness of the waist and the grace of the figure.

"Why do they tie their belts so tightly? Aren't they afraid of suffocating?"

The person next to him stepped forward to respond, and immediately wiped the sweat from his forehead after hearing it.

"This this……"

"Because we think Chu Feng is like this, because..."

However, a Taoist who was following behind said, "Because the King of Chu has a very thin waist!"

Taoist Ao had not dared to speak the whole day after arriving in Beijing today, and he couldn't find a place to speak. At this moment, he finally found a place to speak, and he couldn't help but shout out loud.

I thought, what’s so hard to understand? Isn’t it obvious?

But as soon as he opened his mouth, the two fellow disciples beside him immediately looked at him, staring at him and wishing they could cover his mouth.

"You are the only one who talks a lot."
-
When he woke up, Linghua Jun realized that he was already in the capital.

Although there are a large number of slaves and maids in the Yunzhong Palace Temple, the divine witch brought with her many witches who were born in the Yunbi Mountain.

These people are still serving, and the slaves and maids are arranged on the outer level.

Linghua Jun put on a divine robe with cloud patterns, walked into the main hall, and stood under the several-meter-long scroll of the divine Yunzhong Jun that was painted based on her.

Inside and outside, there was a sea of ​​people kneeling.

"Go, let them come to me."

Yesterday was already a good start.

And next she finally had to do what she should do. She still remembered the purpose of her coming to Huajing.

In the empty hall.

Lord Linghua summoned Jia Gui, the three Taoists Yin Yang, Ao and He of Yun Zhendao, and also summoned the monk Picking Flowers.

Linghua Jun, with the appearance of a god, stood under Yunzhong Jun's painting in the hall. The first person he met was Jia Gui, and he asked him a question.

Linghua Jun: "If I want the Wu Dynasty to redefine the genealogy of gods and determine the status of the four earth gods and eight mountain masters, what should I do?"

Jia Gui: "Honglu Temple!"

"The Honglu Temple not only oversees the affairs of the imperial court, suburban temples, and sacrifices, but also manages temples, shrines, and Taoist and Buddhist records throughout the country."

"All the gods and shrines in the world must be listed in the Honglu Temple register. If not, they will be regarded as obscene, and the local officials will have the responsibility to destroy their incense and sacrifices."

"If Lord Linghua wants to redefine the genealogy and status of the gods, the Sitian Office of the Honglu Temple is the key. The person in charge of the Sitian Office is one of the Shaoqing of the Honglu Temple. Someone should be sent to take charge of this important position."

Linghua Jun: "Honglu Temple, Sitian Office."

At this time, Jia Gui knelt on the ground and said, "Jia Gui is not talented, but I am willing to do something for Lord Linghua."

I have to say that this attitude is a bit ugly, but Jia Gui is very calm about it, and he may even be so straightforward on purpose.

It seemed as if Jia Gui knew what the wizard was going to do a long time ago, and he had even thought about what he could do before coming to the capital.

Linghua Jun neither agreed nor said no.

Just let Jia Gui retreat.

The next to come in were Yin Yang, Ao and He Taoists, and Linghua Jun asked them the same question.

"If I want to redefine the genealogy of gods and determine the status of the four earth gods and eight mountain masters, what should I do?"

Lu Yinyang, Jin Ao and Dan He seemed to have already made plans. They knelt in front of Linghua Jun and spoke.

"Please set up a map of mountains, rivers and the state, depicting the mountains and rivers of the nine states, the four earth gods and the eight mountain masters!"

Finally, the monk picking flowers also came in.

The three parties also represent three different directions in the human world and three different groups of people. Linghua Jun summoned them all in to ask questions.

When the Monk Picking Flower heard Linghua Jun's question, he understood that this was a great opportunity, or that a great change in the world of Kyushu was about to happen.

He had so much to say, so many thoughts, but he hadn't gotten around to saying them yet.

At this time, someone outside hurriedly entered the Yunzhong Palace Temple.

Afterwards, a priestess was seen entering the temple gate and only entered the temple after being allowed to pass.

Linghua Jun: "What's wrong?"

The witch bowed and then stood up and said.

"Divine witch!"

"The emperor's old illness has relapsed and the situation is critical."
