Westward Journey to Zhou Muwang
At that time, from a distant country in the west, there came a man who was very good at juggling. He was called "Hua Ren". This is very talented. He jumped into the fire without hurting his hair. He will jump into the sky and stand in the clouds. He can move a city from the east to the west, and he can easily walk through the wall. King Mu regarded him as a god, obedient and meticulous to him.
One day, Hua invited him to visit him, pulled his sleeve, rose in the air, entered the clouds for a long time, and entered the palace where Hua lived. This shows that King Mu is really an eye-opener. The palaces here are resplendent and magnificent, inlaid with pearls and jewels everywhere. The hospitality King Mu received here, no matter what he saw in his eyes, heard in his ears or tasted in his mouth, is by no means human nature. Later, Hua Ren invited Mu Wang to another place and saw all kinds of beautiful shadows and dazzling colors showing off his eyes. I heard all kinds of sweet music again, which shocked my soul and intoxicated me. King Mu was disturbed by what he saw and heard, so he dared not stay long and asked someone to take him back. King Mu was gently pushed by his hand, and he fell from mid-air and woke up suddenly. Oh, it turns out that Mu Wang is still sitting in the temple, controlling everything as usual. King Mu was surprised and asked the people around him: Where did you go just now? People around me said, "I didn't go anywhere, but I was confused." At this time, the chemical man sitting next to him said, "I just went wandering with the king." You don't need to move your body at all! "This time, Mu Wang tasted the benefits of fugue, and he couldn't help feeling excited. He thinks fugue is so interesting, and the real play is more interesting! As a result, King Mu has no state affairs in his heart and doesn't care about the people. He is bent on driving his eight horses around the world.
Speaking of eight horses in Mu Wang, this is really an extraordinary story. The domesticated wild horse, which was obtained from Kuafu by the famous charioteer Zaofu, was dedicated to King Mu. These wild horses are descendants of horses scattered in Kuafu Mountain after Mu Wang's grandfather settled in the world, and still retain the heroic spirit of their ancestors in the wilderness. Moreover, Zhao Fu can not only drive horses, but also raise horses. These eight good horses are fed by him. Some of them can run without practicing soil, some are faster than birds, some can travel thousands of miles at night, and some have wings on their backs ... It's amazing. Zhao Fu gave these eight horses to Queen Mu, and King Mu kept them near Longchuan on the East Island. There is a kind of grass called "Gracilaria lemaneiformis", and people say that "a Gracilaria lemaneiformis becomes a pony." After those horses were eaten, it was even more amazing, a Chinese odyssey.
Zhou Muwang set out to travel around the world. He asked Zhao Fu to drive him eight good horses. The car, carrying a large group of entourage, chose a good day to start. From north to west, he met Hebo, the water god, in Yangshan. I saw a peaceful and gentle platform in Hugh Mountain. Visited the Huangdi Palace in Kunlun Mountain; Accepted the beauty offered by the Chiwu people of the Chiwu nationality; In Heishui, he was rewarded by a hospitable long-arm China man ... Finally, he went to the empty mountain, the west pole of the earth, and met his usual longing for the Queen Mother of the West.
Jiazi was a good day, so Zhou Muwang brought white laurel, jet and some colors to the Queen Mother of the West. The next day was ugly and auspicious. King Mu hosted a banquet in Yaochi, the Queen Mother of the West. The queen mother is very happy. Before the banquet, she sang a song without musical instruments, which said:
White clouds are high in the sky,
The shadow of the ridge naturally appeared.
You and I are far apart, and it's a long way to go in Xiu Yuan.
It also blocked the thick rivers and mountains.
May you live a long and healthy life,
There is still one day in the future.
Out of respect and joy, Mu Wang also sang and replied:
I returned to the land of the East,
We will manage the summer well.
When all men are equal,
I can see you again.
In less than three years,
Will return to your country again.
After the banquet, King Mu drove to the top of Kong Yi and asked someone to set up a big stone tablet on the mountain, which simply wrote the story of meeting the Queen Mother of the West. There are also several big characters engraved on his forehead, which are called "Mountain of the Queen Mother of the West". Several locust trees were planted on both sides of the stone tablet, and Mu Wang planted one himself as a souvenir of friendship with the Queen Mother of the West. On the occasion of parting, the Queen Mother of the West also wrote a poem sadly to express her farewell and expectation for Zhou Muwang. Poetry cloud:
Ever since I came to the west,
Living in the wilderness of the west;
Tigers and leopards are with me.
Crows and magpies and me.
I stayed on this land,
Because I am the daughter of the ancient emperor of China;
It's a pity that my kind people,
They will be separated from you again and cannot follow you.
Musicians play the sheng spring,
Soul soars in music;
Ah, the monarch of all nationalities,
Only you are the hope of heaven.
After that, everyone loved each other and reluctantly separated. Zhou Muwang returned to China directly from Kaner Mountain.
Zhou Muwang traveled around the world, his eyes were wide open and his mind was comfortable. The nutritional treasures donated by various countries made him lead an absurd life, but he didn't die until he was 105. This is quite unexpected.
