I am a fairy

Chapter 22 Yun Zhongjun (I wish all the students taking the college entrance examination good luck)
Jia Guitian left the city before dawn and arrived at the foot of Ziyun Peak before noon. He could be said to be extremely eager.

He came to the foot of the mountain with a group of people following him. When they climbed up along the path, a group of Taoist priests and Taoist children came to the mountain gate and stood in rows, waiting for his arrival.

"Welcome to County Master Jia."

Jia Gui immediately spotted an old Taoist priest standing in the middle of the crowd, guarded by two fat and thin Taoist priests. The Taoist priest looked extraordinary and elegant, and in the eyes of ordinary people, he seemed to have the aura of an immortal.

But Jia Gui had seen a real "immortal" before, and when he looked at this Yin-Yang Taoist priest again, he felt that he was just an ordinary person.

But of course he couldn't say this to his face, and Jia Gui praised this Taoist who once served as an official.

"I have heard of the Taoist master's name for a long time. Today I see that he is truly an extraordinary person."

The Yin-Yang Taoist bowed his head slightly, folded his hands, bent slightly, then stood up straight before responding.

"Your Excellency Jia, thank you for your compliment."

"Your arrival this time has saved Xihe County from a great disaster, and you have the guidance of an immortal. It is fate that you have come to Xihe County. This is a blessing for the people of Xihe County. This is God's arrangement."

Everyone carried the fancy sedan, not to mention that the words of the Yin-Yang Taoist touched Jia Gui's heart. After experiencing all these things, at least he really felt that his coming to Xihe County was God's arrangement.

After the two of them flattered each other for a while, they entered the temple.

The Yin-Yang Taoist priest continued the previous topic and talked about Jia Gui's previous adventure with the immortal. At this point, there was no need for Jia Gui to hide anything, so he told the detailed process.

The three Taoists of Yun Zhen Dao also learned more details about the deity, and the Taoist Dan He at the side took a pen and wrote it down in detail.

First, there was the story about an immortal predicting that it would snow and hail at the beginning of the afternoon, and then there was the words that at 3:30 am the snow would be one finger deep, and then there was the story about a walking dragon.

While writing, I also recited silently.

"The mountain dragons that are stationed here are making unusual movements... one of the mud dragons will break free and become a running dragon... then the mountains will collapse and all the mud and rocks will fall down..."

As he was talking, Jia Gui also talked about what his two children saw and heard on the night of the dragon's escape.

"My son, you saw an immortal shining his divine light on the river. The divine light was like a full moon, which was plucked from the clouds by the immortal. Wind, rain, thunder and lightning moved as he wished. The dragon bowed its head and disappeared into the river."

The more Taoist Danhe wrote, the more frightened he became. He even looked up at Jia Gui repeatedly to make sure that what the county magistrate said was not false.

The scene was so bizarre that it was hard to believe, but when he thought about what he had experienced and the scene of the dragon walking, he felt that it was not a lie.

After Jia Gui finished speaking, the Yin-Yang Taoist stood up and immediately clasped his hands together and bowed deeply.

"Mr. Jia is indeed a man of great fortune and luck. Otherwise, how could he have such an opportunity?"

Having said that, the Yin-Yang Taoist looked at the two Taoists, Jin'ao and Danhe.

"Speaking of which, my two junior brothers also encountered some things on their way back from Zhangjia Village, and they wanted to confirm it with the county lord."

Jin Ao was not very confident about his words, so he asked Taoist Dan He to speak. He then told him about his experiences and described the appearance of the man in white in detail.

After hearing this, Jia Gui was also extremely surprised and exclaimed repeatedly.

"Yes, that is the immortal."
-
From then on, the three Taoists knew some characteristics of the nameless ancient Chu god.

First, this god can sense the changes in the wind and clouds of heaven and earth, know whether it will be sunny, cloudy, rainy or snowy, and can even cover the moon in the clouds and borrow the moonlight.

Second, this deity possesses the great magical power to ride dragons and control flooded creatures.

Third, this deity can communicate with the spirits of mountains and rivers. Whenever he goes out, clouds and mist follow him. It is also related to the cloud wall that originated from ancient times.

Taoist Danhe looked at the ink marks he had written on the pages of paper. He was an ancient god who walked between wind and cloud, an immortal being who rode dragons and was surrounded by mountain gods, earth gods, and river goddesses and was forever young. He was a god who had been playing around in the world for thousands of years since the barbaric era and had been worshipped and enshrined by generations of shamans in Chu.

At this moment it not only jumped out on the paper, but also appeared in his mind.

At this time, Jia Gui finally asked the question he had asked before.

"Jia wants to build a temple and a statue for the immortal, but unfortunately I still know nothing about the immortal who gave me guidance and saved the people of Xihe County. What should I do?"

"I wonder if the Lord can give me some pointers and tell me who the immortal I met is?"

The Yin-Yang Taoist and the two Taoists He and Ao already had some idea about it before, and now it was confirmed by Jia Gui's words, but the old Taoist did not say it directly.

Yin-Yang Taoist: "County Master, do you know what this Xihe County and Yunbi Mountain area were called in the past?"

Jia Gui: "This area belonged to the Chu State in ancient times."

The old Taoist said: "To be more precise, it should have belonged to Yunmengze in the past."

The Yin-Yang Taoist took out a rubbing of calligraphy and asked the Taoist boy to present it to Jia Gui.

Jia Gui identified it and said, "This seems to be the writing of the ancient Chu State. It should have been copied from a stone tablet!"

The Yin-Yang Taoist nodded: "This was left behind by the second generation leader of our Yunzhen Dao. It was copied from a site in Yunbi Mountain." The Yin-Yang Taoist stood up, rolled up his wide sleeves, and pointed to one of the rows.

"The above story is about one of the gods worshipped by the ancient Chu - Lord Yunzhong."

Jia Gui seemed to understand something: "You mean?"

Yin Yang Taoist: "Yun Zhongjun is said to be the God of Clouds. Clouds turn into rain, so he is also the God of Rain. But there are also rumors that he is the God of Yunmeng Lake."

"The ancients and the survivors in the mountains today all believe that it can control thunder and lightning, and call the wind and rain. Therefore, they pray to it in spring for good weather and a good harvest."

Jia Gui: "In the lands of Yan and Zhao, there is also the custom of offering sacrifices to Yunzhongjun."

Yin Yang Taoist: "What I know is the legend circulated in Chu, but it is too long ago since the ancient Chu, so it is always a bit biased."

The old Taoist did not refute, but directed his gaze to the rubbing and even recited it aloud himself.

"Bathe in orchid water and enjoy the fragrance, and dress in gorgeous clothes like a hero."

The old Taoist looked at Jia Gui and spoke.

"Mr. Jia, do you feel that this is confirmed?"

The first sentence describes the gods bathing and then putting on colorful robes.

Jia Gui immediately remembered the first time he saw that figure. The other person was wearing a single piece of clothing and a dazzlingly colorful blanket, sitting by the river, leisurely admiring the river view, as if he had just come out of a bath.

At that time, it was the laziness and comfort in the wilderness that made him feel strange, so he stopped to ask.

The old Taoist continued with the next two sentences.

"The spirit is curled up and stays, the bright light is endless."

"Jian Jiang is in the palace of longevity, shining as brightly as the sun and the moon."

The old Taoist said: "When the gods descend to the world, they will bring light like the sun and the moon. Isn't the scene seen by the county master and his wife a proof of these two sentences?"

Jia Gui also began to recite: "The dragon rides on the emperor's robes, and flies around in the world."

He suddenly realized: "Riding a dragon and controlling a dragon, a dragon also appeared!"

Finally: "The spirit has descended, and the beast has soared far into the clouds."

Coming from the sky with light and disappearing into the clouds, this is exactly what happened to Jin Ao and Dan He.

Taoist Danhe also said: "Yunzhongjun is not only the God of Clouds. Since ancient times, mortals have also prayed to him for good weather and good harvests, and Jiaxianzun has experienced it personally before."

Jia Gui was extremely excited. Of course he remembered that the other party had predicted the time and amount of snowfall to the exact minute.

"Right."

“Now it all fits together.”

Jia Gui came here for this purpose, and the answers given by the Taoists of Yunzhen Dao also made him very satisfied.

He stood up, walked to the window, and kept repeating the name.

"Yun Zhongjun!"

"Mr. Yunzhong..."

Jia Gui didn't think too much at this time. He just felt that the name was very descriptive and matched the sacred appearance in his eyes very well.

As I was reading it, I even felt that this name should have belonged to that person.

Jia Gui nodded and turned to look at the three Taoists.

"Since the appearance of the cloud wall is also related to the gods, then the temple should be built where the cloud wall is!"

"For related matters, we still need your help."

In this way, the site of the temple was decided.

The three Taoists had been busy for a long time just for this purpose, so they quickly put their hands together and bowed.

"I will do my best."

I wish all the students taking college entrance examination good luck in the examination and hope they can become the king among the clouds and the dragon among the clouds in the future.
