Section 1 Ploughing the wolf
Towering mountain peaks and mountains and forests always give people a sense of mystery. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info In ancient China, asking for immortals and cultivating immortals can not be separated from the shadow of the towering mountains, in addition to mysterious treasures, the life and death entanglements between humans and animals are also staged everywhere in the depths of the mountains, and the following story happened in a long time ago in the mountains and forests.
Once upon a time, there was a family surnamed Li who lived in the depths of the mountains, a family of four, father Li, mother Zhang, eldest son Li Housheng and second son Li Jinxi. The eldest son is loyal and honest and honors his parents, while the second son is greedy, selfish, and willful. When their parents were still alive, the family relied on the vast land deep in the mountains and the wild fruits and beasts in the mountains. But when their parents died, the second child's true nature was revealed, and he could not stand the loneliness and loneliness in the depths of the mountains, because their family's field had two parts, one on the mountain and one at the bottom of the mountain, and the land below the mountain was flat and fertile and close to the large village with many people. So the second child strongly asked to split up. The eldest thought that the second brother was still young, and it was normal for him to be lonely and lonely in the depths of the mountains, and he often longed for the outside world. So the eldest agreed to the second child's request and helped the second child build a beautiful house at the bottom of the mountain. When the family was divided, the eldest also gave most of the family property to the second child, including his family's most valuable ploughing cow.
The boss gave the cow to the second child, and his field was dug by his own hoe and hoe, although it was hard, but because of the boss's diligence and hard work, he would not miss the agricultural time. In his spare time, the boss also planted a lot of vegetables in front of and behind his house, raised pigs and chickens, and lived a prosperous life. But what about the second child, because he got most of the family property, he was idle, wandering around all day long, but because the second child was dignified, and he was good at stammering, and he also lived a very nourishing life, I don't know when he was born and the king butcher of the village was hot, and the king butcher had a daughter who was born with a beautiful face and a jade appearance, named Wang Yurong. Because Li Lao Er often corresponded with Wang Tu Hu, Li Lao Er and Wang Yurong slowly fell in love. As for the Wang butcher, he was also happy in his eyes, and soon after, Li Lao Er bought his own farming cattle and married Wang Yurong as his wife.
The eldest Li Housheng, is accompanied by green mountains all day long, dancing with hundreds of birds, making work at sunrise and resting at sunset. Although life is hard, Li Housheng, who has become accustomed to life in the mountains, still feels that life is very sweet. He planted a lot of land and had a lot of food, and he often took out the grain to feed some small birds and other small animals. As for the small animals, they are not afraid of him, there are always flocks of birds flying around his house, and the small animals are walking leisurely. One day, Li Housheng went to work in the fields, and as soon as he walked into the fields, he saw a tall and powerful brown-red wolf crawling in his field. Li Housheng was frightened, thinking that this is the end of the moment, is it possible that I am going to die in the belly of the wolf? But after waiting for a while, he found that the big wolf did not feel the slightest fear after seeing him, and still crawled there motionless, his eyes full of begging. Li Housheng plucked up the courage to walk over, clutching the hoe in his hand in case of accidents. But when he walked in, he found that the wolf had been seriously wounded in the abdomen and hind legs, and when he looked at the wolf closely, his eyes were full of excitement, and there was no fear or hostility. Seeing this, Li Housheng said to the wolf: "Do you want me to save you?" What Li Housheng didn't expect was that the wolf actually understood his words and nodded. So Li Housheng bravely took off his coat and covered the wolf's body, and carried it home.
Due to Li Housheng's careful care, the wolf healed after half a year, and the wolf looked more tall and mighty at this time, but its eyes were still full of gratitude and gentleness. Seeing that the wolf had recovered, Li Housheng gently stroked the wolf's head and said: "You have recovered, go back to the forest, where is your world" The wolf shook his head, no matter how Li Housheng persuaded it, it refused to leave. And Li Housheng was also full of reluctance to the wolf through getting along with it for half a year, and in this way, Li Housheng had more company. One day, Li Housheng went to work in the fields again, and the wolf was like a loyal guard, following Li Housheng every step of the way.
Li Housheng was in the prime of life, and he waved a hoe up and down, but despite this, he was still sweating profusely after a while, and he had no strength at all. Looking at the land where there are still a few mountain bays, Li Housheng felt a little sad in his heart. He looked up at the sky, his heart was full of loneliness, he was lonely, he also longed for the outside world, and he wanted to find someone to talk to. However, there are few people in the mountains, so he can only tell Huzi what is on his mind, and Huzi is the name he gave to the wolf. "Huzi, Huzi、、、" He shouted a few times, but Huzi was nowhere to be seen. "This tiger doesn't know where to run, it's crazy," he thought to himself. After a while, he saw Huzi come to the field with a ploughing tool that he hadn't used for a long time, and he wondered, "What is Huzi doing with a ploughing tool?" Huzi came to him and motioned Li Housheng to put the tillage tool on it. Li Housheng was puzzled and put the tillage tool on the tiger's body, just after the set, the tiger ploughed the ground like the wind, Li Housheng looked at the tiger in surprise, his eyes were full of incredulity. He was afraid that he would tire Huzi and asked Huzi to slow down, but when he saw Huzi's relaxed appearance, he was relieved. After returning home in the afternoon, he made a delicious big pot of rice for Huzi, and Li Housheng smiled happily when he saw Huzi eating happily.
The second Li Jinxi, since he bought the cow, many of his fields have begun to become barren, let him dig the land with a hoe and hoe, he will not do it. On the one hand, he is afraid of hardship and tiredness, and on the other hand, he thinks that he is a decent person, and to turn over the land like that would be degrading his identity and not dignified. I saw that others had turned over the ground several times, but his field was still overgrown with weeds. If he had something to eat, he would rather not farm, but he had not much food at home, and he was very sad and refused to work, so what should he do? Finally, his wife said to him: "Your brother is not a good farmer, you go and ask him for help!" "Oh, yes! What a word to wake up a dreamer, how can I forget my brother?" Early the next morning, Li Jinxi hurriedly went straight to his brother's house in the mountains.
Li Jinxi thought as he walked, "I don't know how my brother is doing now, I took away the ploughing cattle, how did he farm the land? If his own land is not finished, will he help me?" He was very worried, after all, since he broke up, he has never visited his eldest brother again, but his brother often comes to visit him. When he entered the mountain, he saw Li Housheng ploughing the land with a big wolf from a distance. Li Jinxi was stunned, he couldn't believe what he saw. "Oh my God! Brother is actually ploughing the ground with a wolf!" Li Jinxi exclaimed in his heart! When he looked closer, he did see that it was a wolf plowing the field. At this time, Li Housheng also saw his younger brother Li Jinxi, so he happily greeted: "Jinxi, why do you have time to visit me today?" Li Jinxi pretended to smile and said: "I miss you, by the way, see how your ground is turning, hey, brother, how do you use wolves to plough the land? It's simply amazing" Li Housheng smiled proudly: "This is a tiger, I saved it when it was injured, and now it is my good brother, you see how fast it ploughs the land! As long as you hit it with a stick, you can plow a row of land, and if you beat it with a whip, you can plough a bay of land." Li Jinxi couldn't help but think when he heard it, "My brother is really lucky, if I have a tiger, I won't be afraid of arriving, and I can rent it out to make money." Thinking of this, he actually had a strong jealousy of Li Housheng. But he didn't show it in the slightest, and he was thinking about how to get the tiger again.
At noon, he went to Li Housheng's house to eat together, and the more he looked at Huzi on the road, the more he wanted to have Huzi, and he kept thinking in his heart, "If I ask my brother to go down the mountain with Huzi to help me, then my brother will still take Huzi away when he leaves, and then I won't be able to make money." But if you don't call my brother to go, the ploughing is too hard and tiring. In the end, the desire to make money prevailed, and he decided to borrow Huzi and not let Li Housheng go to his house, so that he could do whatever he wanted. After eating, Li Jinxi asked Li Housheng to borrow Huzi to cultivate the land, although Li Housheng was very reluctant, but his younger brother spoke, and he couldn't bear to decide, so he agreed. But Li Housheng demanded that his younger brother must give Huzi a big pot of rice in the morning, noon, and evening. Li Jinxi didn't want to think about it, so he happily agreed.
When he returned home that day, Li Jinxi happily told his wife everything he saw and told him his idea of making money with tigers. The next day, they got up early, and according to Li Housheng, they made a big pot of rice for Huzi, but when they saw the amazing amount of food for Huzi, they were distressed again, because his family did not have much food. But when they thought of the magic of money and the tiger's ploughing, they were happy again. When he got to the field, Huzi was really a good hand at cultivating the land, and he only had to plough a line with a stick and plough a bay of land with a whip. When the neighbors saw that the wolf was plowing the land, everyone came to watch. Li Jinxi was very proud at once, and at this time he felt that he was living so happily and happily! In this way, Li Jinxi dragged Huzi everywhere to plough the land and transferred a lot of money, but he was reluctant to give Huzi food, and Huzi had no strength to plough the fields, so he beat him hard and tortured Huzi to death in a few days. At this time, Li Jinxi also felt regretful, and he also felt that it was difficult to explain to his brother. So he discussed with his wife, planned to bury Huzi quietly, and told his brother Li Housheng that Huzi had run away. But just when they were about to bury the tiger, his brother Li Housheng suddenly came to his house. When Li Housheng saw Huzi's dead body, Li Housheng was heartbroken, and he didn't scold Li Jinxi, but only went home with Huzi's body. It turned out that on the night of Huzi's death, Li Housheng had a strange dream, in which he saw Huzi say to Li Housheng, "I can't accompany you anymore, I'm leaving, you go down the mountain tomorrow and bring my body back and bury it in the field where you saw me, and then you plant pumpkins in the field." After saying that, Huzi disappeared. The next day, Li Housheng got up early, carefully recalled last night's dream, and always felt very strange, thinking that nothing would happen to Huzi. So he went to his brother's house to have a look, but his tiger son really had an accident and had left him.
After Li Housheng returned home, he sadly buried Huzi in the field where he first saw Huzi, and planted pumpkins as Huzi said in his dream. It didn't take long for the pumpkin in the field to grow, and it was strange to say that the pumpkin in this field grew big and fast, and the big melon had to be held by one person. However, these large pumpkins attracted the attention of the monkeys in the mountains, and when the monkeys saw that the pumpkins were big and good, they smuggled them to their own holes and kept them. One night Li Housheng went to the field to pick melons, and suddenly a group of monkeys broke in, Li Housheng saw that the monkeys were coming, and in a hurry, he put himself in the cloth bag he carried, but unfortunately Huzi moved Li Housheng back to the cave as a melon. When they got to the cave, the monkey threw Li Housheng down and went out again, Li Housheng was also frightened, he waited for a long time, and when he heard that there was no sound outside, he secretly crawled out. When he came out, he was stunned by the scene before him, only to see that the cave was full of gold, silver and jewelry. Li Housheng was afraid that the monkey would come back, so he hurriedly packed a bag of gold and silver and hurried home.
Li Housheng is loyal and honest. He knew that his brother was lazy and didn't have a good life, so he gave his brother some of his gold and silver. Li Jinxi suddenly saw that Li Housheng gave him so much gold, silver and jewelry, so he kept interrogating his brother about the origin of these jewels. Li Housheng thought it was his brother, so he told his brother everything. That night, Li Jinxi and his wife secretly went to his brother's field, put themselves in a bag and waited for the monkeys. When it was dawn, the monkeys came and brought them back to the cave. When Li Jinxi and his wife heard that there was no sound outside, they happily crawled out, who knew that because of the loss of gold and silver last time, the monkeys were very angry, and they left a few monkeys to guard the cave this time. When they found Mr. and Mrs. Lee, the monkeys killed them in anger and threw them off a cliff.
