At the foot of the Southern Mountain, there was a long-cultivated Harad who wanted to become immortal. He inquired about the way to become immortal and refined many elixirs. Unfortunately, his appearance was not good and his behavior was not glorious, so Harad's dream of becoming immortal was put on hold.
Until a certain year, the Heavenly Court suddenly wanted to recruit a talented person to become immortal in the Heavenly Court, but the premise was that it must be approved by the immortals and the earth gods.
The announcement of the Heavenly Court caused panic on the ground. Thousands of people signed up. Who wouldn't want to be immortal?
How could this kind of news escape the ears of Harad, his eyes lit up, and a set of living treasures was born in his heart?
To say that these immortals and earth gods are like the back of his hand to Ha Toad, who has long wanted to become immortals, and he knows them blindfolded.
After a little inquiry, Harad kept in mind the important people in charge of recruiting this time. And visit one by one to see if there are any conditions and requirements.
Not far from the time announced by the Heavenly Court, the ground is very lively. Not to mention the toad, there is no one to see all day, that immortal string, that immortal walking away.
The big day has finally arrived, and Xianting is decorated with lanterns to celebrate.
"Finally," Taishang Laojun raised his voice, "In this recruitment, the Jade Emperor has also adopted the democratic election system of the people, and we will also have a vote for the Immortal Lord. Now...", Taishang Laojun opened a scroll and continued, "I announce the winner of the Immortal Lord's vote this time." The Heavenly Court Square was silent for a while, and his ears were elongated, and Harad's palms were sweating even more tightly. Taishang Laojun also elongated his voice. "The one who won the most votes is Toad." As soon as he said that, Toad dug his ears and jumped high with a "cackle" sound, the dream finally came true. But the audience began to make noise. " How can the toad accept this immortal? "cried the Frog Prince exclaimed in dissatisfaction," Our frog's behavior is more honorable than it is. " In terms of mana, it is not in the eyes of my old leopard at all. "The leopard also showed a dissatisfied tone. Peacock's face even changed:" This face can also be a god, not afraid of ruining the fairyland. "There was a" unfair "voice from the audience.
I know that everyone has their own advantages, but if it's unfair, then you are the prince of the frog, the leopard is the king of the forest, the peacock is the flower of the flock of birds, and his toad is a toad. This is already unfair, so what? And this is elected by the Immortal Lord, not personal will at all. "
Hearing this, the audience fell silent. "Now I have a few words from the heart of the toad to tell everyone." Taishang Laojun broke the silence.
The toad was really a mix of joy and sorrow, and climbed onto the Sendai, paused and said, "First of all, I thank the immortals and the earth gods for their support. What I want to say is that because I am a toad, I hope to get this immortal position more than anyone else." After saying that, he was already sobbing.
The Immortal Selection was over, and the Toad was picked up by the Supreme Lord to see the Jade Emperor, leaving behind a crowd full of hope but disappointed. Prince Frog angrily revealed an inside story: "Toad and I are neighbors, and the Supreme Lord is so biased because Toad has given all the medicinal pills he has cultivated for many years to the Supreme Lord. Everyone knows that the Supreme Lord is a pill fan." The leopard also said: "I have long heard that the toad runs to Li Tianwang all day long, and I don't know what benefits he gave Li Tianwang, so that all Li Tianwang's group voted for it. Peacock couldn't wait to say, "Yes, yes! When I flew over the Dragon King's residence, I also saw the toad and the Dragon King talking and laughing, I don't know what means it used with the Dragon King."
In short, toad becoming immortal was God's will, but not everyone's hope. Everyone agreed that the toad had played some tricks to bribe the immortals and the earth gods. They were all indignant by the toad's behavior.
After that, there was a bribe wind blowing on the ground, and during festivals, paper burned on the ground, incense lit incense, Buddha worshipped Buddha, and the temple offered sacrifices to the temple, the whole place was full of black smoke, and it was impossible to distinguish between east, west, and north.
Especially the people who sent pills at the residence of the Supreme Lord were all lined up. This Supreme Lord is annoying, accept it, say a little respect one by one, in fact, he wants to change the immortal position immediately, but the immortal position is not given! At that time, he said that I eat people and don't spit out bones. Don't accept it, and say that my Lao Jun is cold-blooded and does not know how to lift. Hey! Why bother? Don't you all hate toads for playing tricks? Why are you more skilled than toads? Old Jun can only keep shaking his head, I don't know what to do.
But did this toad really bribe the celestial and earth gods? Or did his sincerity really move them? The secret cannot be revealed. It's a pity that the heavenly court has also been dragged into the water since then, and some heavenly officials have really been demoted due to the bribery incident.
