首阳芳躅日争光,欲树千秋臣道防;
凛凛数言垂世宇,寥寥片语立纲常。
求仁自是求仁得,义士还从义士扬;
读罢史文犹自泪,至今齿颊有馀香。
话说(shuo)清虚道德真君(jun),见黄(huang)天(tian)化来问前程归(gui)着,欲(yu)说(shuo)出所以,恐他(ta)不服,欲(yu)不说(shuo)明自,又(you)恐他(ta)误遭陷害;真君(jun)没奈何,只得将前去机关(guan),作一偈,听凭天(tian)命。真君(jun)作偈曰:
"逢高(gao)不可战,遇能(neng)急(ji)速回;金头(tou)鸡上看(kan),蜂拥(yong)便知机。止为(wei)功为(wei)首(shou),千载姓名题;若(ruo)不知时务,防身(shen)有难危。"
道(dao)人作罢偈, 黄天(tian)化年少英堆(dui),那 放在心上。只(zhi)(zhi)见土行孙也(ye)来问(wen)惧留孙,惧留孙也(ye)知土行孙不好(hao);他还进(jin)得关,死於张奎之手。也(ye)只(zhi)(zhi)得作一偈,与(yu)土行孙存验。偈曰:
"地行(xing)道(dao)术说(shuo)能通,莫为贪嗔错用功;撺(cuan)出一(yi)獐咬一(yi)口,崖(ya)前猛兽带长红。"
惧留孙(sun)作罢偈,土行孙(sun)谢过师尊。且说众仙(xian)与子(zi)牙作别(bie),各回山岳(yue)去了(le)。子(zi)牙同(tong)武(wu)王(wang)众将(jiang)进(jin)西岐城,武(wu)王(wang)回宫,子(zi)牙赶帅府;大小(xiao)众将(jiang),俟侯(hou)三日後下教场听(ting)点。子(zi)牙次日作本谢恩,上殿来见武(wu)王(wang)。子(zi)牙金□头大红袍玉带(dai),将(jiang)本呈上。只见上大夫散宜生接(jie)本,展(zhan)於御案上。子(zi)牙俯伏奏曰:"姜尚(shang)何幸蒙(meng)先王(wang)顾聘,未效(xiao)(xiao)涓埃之(zhi)(zhi)报(bao),又蒙(meng)大王(wang)拜尚(shang)为将(jiang),知遇(yu)之(zhi)(zhi)隆,古今罕及,尚(shang)敢不效(xiao)(xiao)犬马之(zhi)(zhi)劳,以报(bao)深思(si)也。今特去请大驾亲征,以顺天(tian)(tian)人之(zhi)(zhi)愿。"武(wu)王(wang)曰:"相父此举,正合(he)天(tian)(tian)心。"忙展(zhan)表览之(zhi)(zhi),略云:

话(hua)说子(zi)牙点(dian)将已(yi)毕,传令黄(huang)飞虎上台。子(zi)牙曰:"纣王虽(sui)是气(qi)数已(yi)尽,五关(guan)之内,必有精奇之士(shi),不(bu)可不(bu)防备(bei)。当(dang)(dang)战者(zhe)战,当(dang)(dang)攻者(zhe)攻,其间军(jun)(jun)士(shi)须(xu)要演习阵(zhen)图,方知进退之法(fa),然後可破敌人。"随令军(jun)(jun)政官:"抬十阵(zhen)牌,放在台上。"

"征云蔽日隐旌 , 战士横戈纵铁骑;
飞剑有光来紫电,流星斜落挂金黎。
将军猛烈堪图画,天子威仪异所施;
漫道吊民来伐(fa)罪,方知天地果无(wu)私。"
