Chapter 165 (3rd Update)
Le Xinxin was puzzled when he heard this, and immediately asked. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info "Ghost cha, don't all the stories I read say that they are bull-headed and horse-faced?"
Tang Wenyue also nodded when she heard this.
Wang Lingyun thought about it and then gave an explanation.
"There are only two people in the bull head and horse face, the world is so big, how many people have to die every day. ”
"How can there be only two bull-headed horses and noodles busy? There must be other ghosts. ”
"After all, so many people die every day in this world, it is impossible to always recruit cattle and horses to be ghosts. There's always going to be someone who does the. ”
After listening to the explanation, Le Xinxin and Tang Wenyue had a reasonable expression.
After Tang Wenyue finished talking about this, she immediately talked about it and told a legend about the carp bridge in Yicheng.
This legend was told to her by Tang Wenyue's grandmother,
In ancient times, Liyu Lake was originally a small river gully that flowed from south to north.
About 30 zhang below the Hunan dam, there is an ancient stone bridge.
Legend has it that a long time ago, it was originally a wooden bridge. In the village east of the river lived a scholar surnamed Guan, who lost his father at a young age and lived with his mother.
In the same village, there was a blind orphan Zhang Hu, who had no one to support, and he discussed with his mother to take her into his own home to support her.
The family was already very poor, and an elderly man who was blind was added, and life became more and more difficult.
In order to survive, his mother spun and weaved, he worked hard and studied, sometimes went to school hungry, and as he grew older, he gradually became yellow and thin.
One day, when he went to school, he walked to the bridge and saw a girl standing on the bridge with a large water chestnut in her hand.
He stepped forward shyly and said, "Childe, let's eat this water chestnut for you, you won't be hungry if you eat it." ”
The scholar didn't have time to ask for the reason, but the girl was gone.
After eating the water chestnut, his face was full of red light, his spirit was uplifted, and he made great progress in reading. Early one morning, he walked to the bridge.
The girl appeared in front of him again, holding a shiny red pill in her hand and said.
"Childe, the date for you to enter Beijing to take the exam is approaching, in order to help you seek fame, this cinnabar pill is brought to you by your side, and you can hold it in your mouth when you are hungry and thirsty. ”
"Not only will it help you quench your hunger and thirst, but it will also make you read tirelessly and write well. ”
The scholar took Bao Dan, and the girl told him: "On the fifth watch of the day of the 100th day, you come to the bridge, slap three times, and then call the carp girl three times." ”
"We will meet again, you return Bao Dan to me, don't miss the hour, if you miss it, I will be punished and turned into a lump of sludge. ”
The scholar hurriedly bowed and saluted, saying that he would never lose his trust. Then he asked the girl.
"The girl is so kind to me, if you ask of me, just tell me, I will definitely repay you. ”
The girl said, "I am a dead ghost, named Liyugu, and the only daughter surnamed Zhang Hu. ”
"When I was 16 years old, Hu Yuanwai's son Hu Lanzhuo came to my house with a few domestic slaves to rob my relatives, and my father was beaten to death by them. I also jumped into the river and drowned. ”
"Leaving my mother alone, thanks to my son's support for receiving your family. I met Childe to repay Childe's affection. ”
The scholar entered Beijing to take the exam, and sure enough, the title of the gold list. He remembered that the time for returning Bao Dan was approaching, and he hurried back to his hometown.
Unexpectedly, when I arrived at home, the return date had passed. He came to the bridge, slapped three times first, and then shouted three times to Aunt Carp.
Unexpectedly, the girl did not appear, only to see a cloud of sludge rising under the bridge. He wailed.
He cried for three days and three nights, and his tears merged with the water of the river and washed a small river into a large lake.
In order to commemorate Liyugu, he asked skilled craftsmen to tear down the wooden bridge and build a brick and stone arch bridge on the spot, with the head to the east and the tail to the west.
A tall stone monument was erected on the bridge, and three big characters of "Carp Bridge" were engraved on it.
After Wang Lingyun heard this story, she went to think about the appearance of the carp bridge.
That bridge has been built over the years, I don't know how many times.
I didn't see any big stone monuments at all, and the bridge looked very ordinary now.
If it weren't for hearing Tang Wenyue's story, she would probably have forgotten about the bridge.
Because the bridge is only from a few villages over there, and it is not the main road.
Even in her previous life, Wang Lingyun hadn't been there a few times.
And after listening to this story, Wang Lingyun pursed her lips. It must be another story made up by people.
Let's not talk about the carp girl's repayment.
Since that Zhang Hu and the scholar are from the same village, the scholar must also know this carp girl.
How could you not know what happened to Aunt Carp's family?
Just kidding, the male and female defense is not to prevent girls from poor families from going out.
How could Aunt Liyu be favored by Hu Yuanwai's son Hu Lanzhuo if she didn't go out?
When the scholar ignored the Hu family, people who were blind could live for such a long time, it must be that there was food or someone to take care of them.
Let's not talk about how long did the scholar take Zhang Hu after Liyugu died.
And why did you suddenly have to support Zhang Hu's family?
How unreasonable is it that in ancient times, how much money did it cost to study, and when there was no money to eat, it was still possible to study?
In order to survive after picking up Zhang Hu's family, he only weaved cloth and went to the field to do things. The family of daring scholars used to live for decades without doing anything.
A village carp girl came to find a scholar, and the scholar pretended not to know, obviously with bad intentions.
What Aunt Liyu gave him was unusual at first glance, and he immediately accepted it, just greedy for money.
I collected other people's treasures and went to the exam, and waited until it was almost time to go home. Traffic in ancient times was slow.
Of course, he couldn't catch up with the agreed time, so there would be an excuse to say that he didn't mean to.
That cinnabar pill makes people never hungry or thirsty. And it can also make people not tired and make their minds smarter.
The emperor probably hasn't seen such a baby, who doesn't want it?
As long as Liyugu dies, won't Cinnabar Baodan become a scholar's treasure forever?
It is clear that the scholar deliberately seeks money and kills.
All kinds of signs show that this scholar is not a good person, and his mind is too heavy.
No wonder it is said that most of ******** are readers.
Her grandfather always told all the grandchildren and granddaughters of the Wang family.
Let them read, and read more books, so that they can understand reason, so that they can understand more.
But it's not that they do things that are not moral after they understand things.
Grandpa still hates those who are in politics, saying that their hearts and eyes are like lotus roots, and there are so many.
But I hate politics, and I want her father to go to work in the government and serve an iron rice bowl.
likes soldiers, but she didn't let her second uncle go to the army at the beginning.
Until now, he hasn't fought much, and his grandfather no longer talks about his second uncle being a soldier.
