The emperor has come to Nanyang, so there must be spiritual energy here. Don’t harm the living beings to avoid disaster.” Zongbi was displeased: “Nanyang

People are pedantic and cowardly, and their nonsense is so absurd. Wenhua's words are old news! Taizu started out riding and shooting, and he was good at reciting poems and books.

Is it the North? I am a wolf, born to be the king, and the South is a rabbit, born to be the slave, why do I get used to it?" The people around him nodded and dared not

Word.

There is a majestic mountain with lush forests in Nanyang, called Funiushan Mountain, where the goddess Chang'e worshipped the divine bull. It is spring-like all year round and filled with fairy air.

There was a snake in the body, which turned into a dragon after 500 years. After practicing for 1,000 years, it could not achieve the right result.

After gaining enlightenment, he was able to walk on a dragon and rise up in a month, intending to transform into a dragon. However, to walk on a dragon and transform into a dragon, he needed the help of others. He looked at the crowd in the air, and everyone

If someone points and says, "This is a dragon," then it will become a dragon. Madam is the spirit of all things. Everything she says contains cause and effect. Respect others as you would respect

Bad words will backfire on you, so the folks spread the saying of walking away with a dragon - it is also said to be a way to ask for good luck.

At that time, Zongbi was discussing military affairs in Pingdi. He had been attacking Nanyang for a long time but failed to capture it, and he was getting more and more upset. Suddenly, a golden light flashed, and auspicious clouds gathered.

Suddenly, the stallion knelt down and neighed, the strong mule lay on the ground and whimpered, the hawks cried and ran away, and a huge boa constrictor appeared and hovered in the sky. Zongbi was shocked.

He drew his sword and pointed it angrily, shouting:

"Who is this monster? Why is it disturbing our army's morale?

The dragon was furious and said, "I am a dragon! Everyone in the world knows the fortune of running away from a dragon. Why don't you know it? How dare you insult me ​​with a monster?

I? You barbarians, uneducated and unskilled, have entered China, why don't you know Chinese characters and inherit Chinese traditions?

Teaching is for everyone, and I never look down on you because of blood ties. All three thousand great ways can be learned. If you receive teachings, you will become a descendant of the Chinese nation!

You are beasts in human form, and you refuse to be taught. How can you butcher one person? I think you are nothing more than the end of winter.

The remaining ice, I think it is comparable to Baoyu, but it is still okay in cold weather, but it disappears in warm weather! It is a pity that Qin Hui, the sons and daughters of China,

Seeking momentary enjoyment, offering poisonous plots to murder the emperor and father, willing to be a barbarian, not ashamed, but proud of it, truly a scum of civilization.

Now that the world is getting warmer, I will try to see where the remaining ice of you can go!"

After he finished speaking, a dragon roared, shaking the sky. One roar sent sand and rocks flying, covering the sky and blocking the sun. The second roar brought torrential rain and thunder on the flat ground. The third roar sent thunder and lightning.

The sound shook the earth and mountains, and mud bombs fell from the sky. After three sounds, the sky gradually cleared, the wind was light and the clouds were thin, and there was no trace of the dragon.

Many of Bi's officers and soldiers died from the power of mud bullets.

Temple of the Martyrs

In the fourth year of Jianyan, Yaoshan won a great victory and the Jin army was driven away. People gathered by the water and built villages, some cutting wood and some farming.

In the spring of the fifth year, the population gradually increased, smoke from cooking fires rose, the sixty-year-olds were shaded and had a happy ending, the young children played with each other and had a happy life.

A young and clever woman dreams and works hard, her face glowing.

Sometimes there were three or five children, playing with plum blossoms on bamboo horses, holding sticks or catching kites. Suddenly, a cold wind blew, and the kites flew away on paper.

The children were in great confusion, calling out to the kite and chasing it away. They stumbled and stumbled, and ran with tears in their eyes, but could not find it. Soon, the kite disappeared.

The kite, as if it had lost a treasure, would roll on the ground, weep, stamp its feet and beat its chest, or hold its head in silence.

I was hungry and wanted to go home, but I couldn't find the way.

As the sky darkened, a wild beast roared in the forest. The children ran away in panic, unable to see and unable to walk in their rags. The roar became louder,

The children were incontinent and crying, and there was a rustling sound behind the other children. As the night went on, the children became weaker and the roars became louder.

A green light appeared, shaped like two eyes, like a wolf or a tiger. The children were horrified, screaming and calling for their parents, trying to hide in the bushes but failing.

Green eyes approached, the roar was full of greed, and the fishy wind blew up.

Suddenly, something came from the air, struck Green Eye dead, and the beast screamed miserably. A large man appeared in the air, his voice like a huge bell,

He shouted: "Who is this dog that wants to hurt my children?" The beast was frightened and ran away. The smell of blood died down and the roar stopped. The big man called his friends

He called his friends and carried the children away. If the children were in the arms of their fathers and brothers, they would feel at peace, feel hungry and tired, and fall into a sweet sleep.

Several officers and soldiers looked at the child and laughed, some stroked the child's head to cheer him up, and some played with him by holding fruits and chicken breasts. The officers, soldiers and children were all very happy.

Bi, - the Han refers to the road back home, and the officers and soldiers dispersed.

The next day, the children gradually woke up and found themselves in a temple. The children chose a way back to the village, and the villagers were delighted.

At home, the father scolded but the mother loved him. The child told the story of all the things that had happened before. The parents were shocked and led the villagers to visit the temple.

His common name was Li Xiuyuan. He traveled here and accompanied the villagers to the temple. They bowed and said, "This temple was built after the great battle at Yaoshan.

It was built by the government to honor the heroic spirits of the Chinese nation. Without these heroic spirits, there would be no peace in the present.

There are many dark winds and ghost fires in the place, but this temple, although there are tens of thousands of tombs, has no dark winds, and it has a great spirit! The emperor is the one who receives the mandate of heaven.

The god of law. The heroic spirit is conferred by the emperor, and he will surely benefit all people. You must worship him well.

The villagers looked at it and found that the warm breeze was indeed pleasant, as if caressing their flesh and bones. They admired it and bowed down.

The temple became more and more popular, with sacrifices and offerings throughout the four seasons, and children playing

Outside, the villagers bowed inside. They were not seeking fame, wealth or official positions, but only looking after their children, fathers and brothers.
