In the eighth year of Tang Xianzong Yuanhe (8 13), Motian lived in Luoyang. On the evening of August 15, Mo Tian went out of Jianchun Gate in Luoyang City with a wine bottle and wanted to go to Deng Shao's villa to enjoy the moon. After walking two or three miles, I met Deng Shao and came from the east with a bottle. They parked their horses by the side of the road, but they didn't decide where to go. At this time, two scholars also rode chrysanthemum horses out of Jianchun Gate, bowed to Motian and Deng Shao and said, "Do you want to find a place to enjoy the moon at night with your wine bottles? There is a garden-like building in our village, which is famous all over Luoyang. It's only two or three miles southeast of here. If we can make a detour, I would like to see us meet by chance and become bosom friends. " Tian Wei and Deng Shao were also very happy and went together. Tian and Deng also wanted to find out their names, but they changed the subject with other words.
After walking for several miles, the moon has already risen. They came to a tall gatehouse, just entered a desolate place, and walked hundreds of steps, smelling fragrant and suddenly enlightened, as if they were in a fairyland. Seeing the spring water flowing here, the waterfalls flying down, the pine trees and osmanthus flowers came into being, and the exotic flowers and grasses were like the day in the moonlight. Birds flying up and down, dancing with the full moon, what a pleasant scene!
Tian Miao and Deng Shao wanted to gallop on horseback, so they handed each other drinks on horseback. The scholar asked, "Sir, how does the wine taste in the bottle?"
Tian Wei and Deng Shao said: "This is a dry five-brewed wine, and even immortal wine may not be able to catch up with this taste." The scholar said, "I have Lu Rui wine here, which is made of flowers. I wonder which of Mr. Tong's five wines is better? " So, the scholar told extremely: "You pick two candles and flowers at night, and I'll pour some wine for the two gentlemen to taste."
Soon, extremely picked flowers. This candle night flower has four petals, deep red, round like a small bottle, about three inches in diameter, and green leaves like wine glasses, which still make a sound when touched. The scholar poured the wine, and Tian and Deng walked around the bamboo forest and had a few drinks. That wine is sweet and fragrant, which is beyond description. After drinking, they walked to the southeast.
After walking a few more miles, they came to a door. The scholar dismounted two guests and gave the rest of the wine to the people who followed, but these people were all drunk after only one drink. The scholar led Tian and Deng into the door, and birds and cranes greeted him. Go further, there will be more flowers. All kinds of flowers are fragrant and intertwined, covering both sides of the road. All the pavilions passing by had banquets, as if waiting for some guests, but the scholar was in no hurry to let Tian Wei and Deng Shao sit down. Because Tian Wei and Deng Shao were drunk and tired, they asked to sit down and have a rest.
The scholar said, "Of course, there is no difficulty in finding a place to sit, but I'm afraid it's not good for you to sit here." Tian and Deng asked why.
A female scholar in Song Yue said, "Tonight, all the immortals will come to this mountain for a party. We have absorbed the souls of both of you, and hope that you can act as masters of ceremonies to guide people's behavior. This is the seat of the immortal, and the layman can't touch it. It's inconvenient for you to sit here. " As soon as the words were finished, I saw flames in the north, fairy songs flying, brocade chariots parked in the curtain, and crystal square plates placed in the treasure account. The fairy began to play with colorful feathers. The scholar stepped forward and asked Tian Wei and Deng Shao to visit a lady. The lady opened the curtain and said with a smile, "Ordinary people in the lower classes are seldom polite, but they still stink when eating. Don't let them near their delicate new uncle." But you can give everyone a glass of smoked pulp wine to wash away the worldly spirit. "
After Tian Wei and Deng Shao finished drinking, they felt warm and wet, different from ordinary people, and even their breathing was delicious.
At this time, someone asked, "Who are Tian and Deng?"
The lady replied, "It's Wei Fuqing and Li Babai." The lady ordered, "Let Tian and Deng receive them."
So, two scholars stood behind the immortal with Tian Wei and Deng Shao. At this time, Tian Wei asked, "Who is the best man at this wedding?" The scholar replied, "It's Liu Gang." Tian Wei asked again, "Who is the waiter?" The scholar replied, "It's my wife's niece Mao Ying." Tian Wei asked again, "Who are those two people flying kites in the east?" The scholar replied, "They are Ma Gu and Xie Ziran." Tian Wei finally asked, "Who is sitting in the tent?" The scholar replied, "It's the Queen Mother of the West."
After a while, a man came riding a crane. Then a fairy asked, "Is the master of ceremonies there?"
Hearing this, the scholar took Tian Wei and Deng Shao to the front and let them stand on the left side of the Jasper Hall.
After a while, I heard music coming from the air. A man came to the front with a red one and said loudly, "Mu's son has arrived." Then, Yue Xian played everywhere, all the immortals stood up, and the Queen Mother left her seat to meet her. At this time, the queen mother said, "Why don't you bring the old Xuanyuan Huangdi?" An immortal replied, "He has been invited, but he can't come because he is having a banquet at the Moon Palace tonight."
The Queen Mother said with emotion, "Since the last farewell to Yaochi, things have changed several times, and the once visible Dongcheng in Luoyang is now in ruins. The area west of Dingdingmen suddenly became a new city street. It's just that the pursuit of fame and fortune in this world is still the same as in the past. Really amazing! " Mutianzi picked up the wine and sang with the Queen Mother. The queen mother then knocked on the plate with coral chopsticks and sang, "I advise you to drink and grieve for you." He also chanted: "Since I have seen many changes in the world, I am no longer in the mood to have fun at the Yaochi meeting." Later, the queen mother took the glass and drank it.
At this time, Mutianzi went on to sing: "Please have a drink. Don't sigh that the market is changing today. I know no one is interested in the Yaochi meeting. I really regret going back with my good horse. " After singing, I chatted with the queen mother about the past at the Yaochi meeting.
After a while, the Queen Mother said, "We should call Ye Jing and ask her to sing another ditty at that time." Later, when Ye Jing arrived, he sang, "After leaving Beijing in the northern war, there was no music in the palace where Yang Guifei bathed, and there was no ceremonial protection of the emperor in the middle of the night. The emperor's chariots and horses set off in a hurry, and Yu Pei put them in the dressing box. The jade hibiscus carved in the hot spring bath is still in the water. Thorns blocked the road leading to Yuan Chaoting at the top of Lishan Mountain, and only the wind that night whimpered and blew Gu Song. " After singing, many immortals were very sad.
After a while, the banquet was opened and dozens of dishes were placed on the table. At the same time, it was also given to Tian Wei and Deng Shao.
A fairy came to Motian and Deng Shao with a jade chest, red writing paper and inkstone, asked them to write poems and urged the bride to get on the sedan chair. So, they wrote: "The jade body is like a cicada, and the moth hair is like a cloud, so use powder to put rouge on it. Please come out early and stand lightly between the clouds." Mao Ying also chanted, "Open the crystal treasure account and light the wedding candle. The breeze blows the pearls and the clouds in Yu Pei, and you don't even need red powder to dress up your gorgeous face. Please catch the bus from Shuangluan earlier and arrive in Wonderland as soon as possible. " Tian Wei and Deng Shao wrote this poem and accepted it. Soon, came the voice of Pei Huan collision, dozens of women led the fairy lang into the account. And told Ueda Wei and Deng Shao to start the ceremony.
After the ceremony, two scholars took Tian Wei and Deng Shao to say goodbye to their wives. When the lady left, she said, "It's not that I didn't give you a good baby, but that I'm afraid you are too weak to hold it!" " "I had to give them a glass of longevity wine, respectively, and said," after you sing this wine, you can extend your life in the world for 30 years. "Then, let Wei Fuqing send them back to earth.
On the way home, they still pick flowers, drink and say goodbye. Wei Fuqing said to Mo Tian and Deng Shao, "It is because of people's usual practice that these people in the celestial world can ascend to heaven and become immortals and let the birds and cranes pull carts for them. If you can get rid of the shackles of earthly life, three years later, I will wait for you at the 36 th peak of Songshan Mountain. I hope you take care of yourself. "
When they arrived at the gatehouse, they shook hands and said goodbye to each other. After the farewell, Tian Wei and Deng Shaogang took four or five steps. When they looked back, everything was gone, only Songshan was towering. When they got home, they found that more than a year had passed on the ground. The family has already built a grave for them in Beimangshan and summoned them for burial. Now, grass grows on the grave. So Tian Yong and Deng Shao left their family and went to Songshan together. No one has seen them since.
Song Yue's daughter.
