How did the Eight Immortals cross the ocean to become immortals?

1, Zhang

One day, while digging vegetable fields, a monk in Nvshan Temple accidentally dug up a fat and tender Polygonum multiflorum root, which looked like a human figure. After eating it, he can live forever. The old abbot immediately ordered the kitchen to be cleaned and boiled. So, the old abbot called all the monks in the temple to the main hall for a meeting to study how to share Polygonum multiflorum Thunb, who ate the head, who ate the body, who ate the arms, who ate the hands, legs and feet and who drank the soup.

All the monks are beaming. In order to prevent the kitchen from stealing vegetables, the monks also wanted to know how to distribute them, so they also attended the meeting. At this time, it happened that Zhang was driving a donkey back from the East to visit friends. He is travel-stained, hungry, thirsty and exhausted. You can smell the exotic fragrance in Nvshan Temple from a distance, which is refreshing and intoxicating.

He hurried into the temple, saw no one around, immediately got into the kitchen, opened the pot and saw that a pink Polygonum multiflorum had been cooked, sleeping peacefully like a newborn baby, so cute. Zhang's mouth is watering. He doesn't care so much. He fished it out and cut it open and ate it. In a short time, he reimbursed the whole Polygonum multiflorum root three times, five times and two times. I feel comfortable, calm and refreshed.

After eating and drinking enough, Zhang scraped the remaining Polygonum multiflorum soup for the donkey to drink, then lay in front of the stove to rest in the sun, and soon entered a sweet dream. After the meeting, monks flocked to share Polygonum multiflorum Thunb. When they entered the kitchen, they saw that the pot was empty and there was nothing left. So he decided that it belonged to Zhang Qian, and immediately reported it to the abbot. How could the abbot let it go?

After a moment of meditation, I think that the immortal thing has been eaten by this man. The urgent task now is to kill this man, share his meat, and get the immortal spirit. Then he ordered the monk to pick up sticks and instruments to kill the man. But because of the noise, I woke up Zhang. Seeing that the situation was not good, he turned to the donkey and fled in a hurry. I don't want to ride a donkey backwards. I fled to an open space in the east, but I was in a hurry and the donkey's head was facing west.

He grabbed the donkey's tail with one hand and hit it hard on the ass with the other. However, the more you hit the donkey, the more you run west. As a result, I crossed the mountain ridge and ran to the first lake in Shanxi. I saw that the lake was boundless and there was no way out. Seeing that he was going to die, at this critical moment, the donkey screamed and the hoof was born.

He crossed Nvshan Lake in a cloud and landed safely on a hill on the other side. It turned out that the donkey had magical power, so Zhang was saved. So Zhang Song took a breath, sat down to catch his breath, hung the donkey, rode the donkey backwards, and walked leisurely, and became immortal from then on.

2. Lan Caihe

One day, Cai and Qiu Xian came to a lotus pond. The lotus flowers in this pond are in full bloom. Looking around, the fresh lotus leaves are crystal clear and sparkling in the bright sunshine. When the breeze blows, the lotus leaves shake the green leaves, and the small water droplets left on the leaves flow with the swaying of the leaf surface. A column of lotus holds a lotus.

The flowers are pink, yellow or white, which contrast with the green lotus and present a perfect picture. Blue Cai He looked at the big green lotus leaf and seemed to realize something. So I quickly picked some wide leaves and put them under the basket. Then he took a basket of clear pool water and came to the old man to wash away the pus and blood from the wound. I didn't know that the old man's wound passed through this pool of water first.

I'll be fine soon. Blue Cai He stared at the strange water, speechless with his mouth open. Blue Cai He still become speechless. The old man scooped a handful of water for him to drink with both hands. Unexpectedly, after drinking this water, I immediately felt that my body became light and fluttering, and I flew leisurely.

He Xiangu,

He Xiangu, formerly known as He Qiong, was born in an ordinary peasant family in Lingling in the first year of Yao Kai, Tang Gaozong. At the age of fourteen, she met a white-haired old man with a long beard by the mica stream. The old man asked her about some local scenery, and He Qiong gave a clever answer. The old man is very happy. He took out a fresh flat peach from his backpack and handed it to He Qiong. He Qiong took it and thanked the old man.

Then he ate flat peaches three times, five times and twice. The old man watched her finish eating, smiled and nodded, turned around and disappeared. After returning home, He Qiong hasn't felt hungry for several days. He doesn't want to eat, but his spirit is stronger than before. A month later, He Qiong met Ling next to Mica Creek. This time, the old man took her to Mica Mountain.

Teach her how to collect mica and how to eat mica. He Qiong, according to his words, eats mica on mica mountain every day, and gradually feels as light as a swan, traveling to and from the top of the mountain and walking like a fly. Besides, she can identify and pick all kinds of herbs in the mountains, treat all kinds of diseases for people nearby and predict personnel, so people around her call her "He Xiangu".

4. Cao Guojiu,

One day, Cao Guojiu suddenly crossed the Yellow River. The ferryman wanted to kick him off the boat because he had no money. Cao Guojiu then took out the gold medal, and everyone present knelt down and shouted three times. Only one person shouted, "Since you are a monk, how can you scare others by the situation?" Cao Guojiu bowed down and asked, "How dare I bully others?" The man said, "Then can you throw the gold medal into the water?" Cao Guojiu threw away the gold medal casually, and everyone shouted injustice.

The Taoist priest called Cao ashore and said, "Come with me." When they went ashore, the Taoist asked, "Do you know Lv Dongbin?" Cao Guojiu said: "I am just a little mortal. How can I know Lv Dongbin? " The Taoist said, "I am Lv Dongbin, and I have come to make you immortal." So Lv Dongbin professor Cao Guojiu formula, cultivate immortal fruit.

5. Han Xiangzi

One day, it was Han Yu's birthday, and relatives and friends came to congratulate him. Han Yu held a grand banquet for them. Xiangzi came unexpectedly to congratulate Han Yu on his birthday. Han Yu was happy and angry when he saw him. Xiangzi sat at the dining table. Han Yu asked him, "You have been traveling abroad for a long time. I wonder if your knowledge has improved. Please write a poem to express your ambition. " Han Xiangzi began to sing: Green hills are separated by clouds and flowing water. This is my home.

Holding Xia Yun liquid, Chen Bin sings the sunset. Jasper cave plays the piano and smelting white cinnabar in the furnace; Baoding keeps Hu Jin, Zhitian keeps white crow, a gourd ladle hides nature, and three feet of new evil spirits; Solve the problem of wandering wine and it will bloom in an instant. Someone can learn from me and watch Xianpa together. So Han Yu and Xiangzi went to Lan's house for the night. Han Yu believed Xiangzi's words were true. That night, Han Yu and Han Xiangzi talked about communication and ways to repair the truth.

Han Yu is completely convinced. The next day, before leaving, Han Xiangzi took out a gourd ladle of fairy medicine and said to Han Yu, "Take one pill to keep out the cold and clear away heat." Han Yu suddenly realized. Han Xiangzi said, "Come back quickly. Not only are you not ill, but you will be reused by the court. "

Han Yu asked, "Will we meet again?" Han Xiangzi replied, "I don't know." So he drifted away. Later, Han Xiangzi changed Han Yu, and Han Yu finally became an immortal.

6. Tie Guai Li,

As a teenager, he was a handsome and gentle scholar. He also took part in many imperial examinations, but he failed to pass because of his failure in the examination room. In the end, I stopped clinging to the imperial examination, saw through the world of mortals, ran away from home, and begged immortals to visit Taoism everywhere. Tie Guai Li's heart of seeking Tao is very eager. In order to achieve a positive result as soon as possible, he braved difficulties and obstacles and found a thatched cottage as a Taoist temple in the deep mountains and forests.

Concentrate on practicing here. Later, in order to improve his way more quickly, he left this Mao 'an and lived in a secluded cave after months of camping in the wind, wading deep beaches and climbing mountains. Tie Guai Li lived in this cave for more than ten years. However, he still feels that he has made little progress. At this rate, his immortal days will be quite long.

I don't know when I can live forever. Therefore, he really wants to get the guidance of a famous fairy, so that he can get twice the result with half the effort and finally achieve something. His first thought was the Taishang Laojun on Huashan Mountain, because Taishang Laojun Li Er had the same surname and was the ancestor of Taoism. If he can get the advice of the old gentleman, he believes that he can live forever.

7.han Zhongli

On this day, Lv Dongbin sat alone at home and suddenly saw countless grotesque ghosts and gods running. Some people want to catch him, others want to kill him. Dong Bin is not afraid. After a while, I saw dozens of witches holding a bloody prisoner. The crowd shouted: You killed me in my last life, so give me my money back! "Lv Dongbin replied," If you want to kill someone, what can you refuse? " He went to take out the knife and rope.

Prepare to commit suicide to pay off debts. Suddenly I heard a loud drink in the air, and the ghost prisoner disappeared, and one person applauded. It was Zhong Liquan. He said to Dong Bin, "It is difficult to extinguish dust, but it is difficult to seek immortality. I am more eager to seek an apprentice than others. If you are tested ten times, you can survive, and there is no doubt that you will succeed in the future. It's just that your merits are not perfect.

I will teach you how to turn iron into gold and silver. You can use it to help the world and benefit all sentient beings. Three thousand merits are completed, eight hundred good deeds are ready, and I will let you live forever.

8. Lv Dongbin?

One day, when Lv Dongbin came back from the outside and walked into the house, he found that the whole family had died for no reason. Seeing this scene, he was neither sad nor regretful, but silently arranged the funeral of his family. While he was sorting out his affairs, his family suddenly became active, but Lv Dongbin was still neither sad nor happy. The second time: Lv Dongbin went to the streets to sell goods. He had negotiated the price with the buyer, but in the end.

The buyer changed his mind. Dong Bin is still not angry or annoyed. The buyer pays as much money as he likes and takes it away. The third time I was herding sheep in Lv Dongbin, I met a fierce tiger chasing a lamb. Regardless of his life, Lv Dongbin blocked the old tiger with his body. The tiger saw it and had to leave angrily.

In this way, Lv Dongbin's ten consecutive tests on Han Zhongli were treated with a depressing mood. Han Zhongli said to Lv Dongbin, "I tried you ten times, and you all passed. It is obvious that you can achieve Tao, but you have to earn 3,000 merits and 800 virtues to become an immortal. "

From then on, Lv Dongbin learned Daoism and magic from Han Zhongli, and later learned fencing from the real dragon, constantly saving lives, ward off evil spirits and benefiting the people, and made many merits.
