A.D. 1340, the sixth year of the Yuan Dynasty. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoEmperor Yuan Shun exiled the Qin king Boyan and abolished the anti-Han legal policy.

It is said that on the east coast, there is a small fishing village with more than 100 households, called Baishitan. The name of White Rock Beach comes from the fact that there are many white sand and gravel on the coast here, and the second is also because there are many people with the surnames of white and stone in the village. Tracing back to the prosperity of the Northern Song Dynasty, the two tribes of Baishi moved here, and later generations continued to pass through here, lingering and never returning, and finally formed today's fishing village. After the fall of the Northern Song Dynasty, this realm was occupied by Dajin, and then it was ruled by Dayuan. Because the Jin Yuan people are not accustomed to water, although this place has been under the rule of the Yuan Dynasty for a long time, there are few Yuan people who intrude. The people here catch fish and exchange for grain and salt in the Laoshan area, which is peaceful and rich, and it is quite a paradise.

Less than ten miles to the south of Baishitan, that is where Laoshan Mountain, a Taoist resort in Shenzhou, is located. This Laoshan since the Western Han Dynasty Emperor Wu Emperor by the ancestor Zhang Lianfu opened the mountain and established the sect, through the Tang Dynasty Taoist Puji Zhenren Shou Zhongzi Li Zhexuan, Gaihua Zhenren Liu Ruozhuo lifelong management, and the former Dynasty Taoist Changchun Ziqiu Ji, the eldest son Liu Xuanguang Gate Court. In 1198, the third year of Jin Zhangzong, Jin Zhangzong heard that he had a way, and once "took the crane board pu wheel, received it from Zichen, treated him like a guest, and gave him Linyu". Its fame is not trivial, and countless Taoist believers worship the sages every year. Needless to say, the clan Taiqing Palace, the Tiger Nunnery is like the leader of the alliance, and there are many side temples under the mountain that are shaded by this, the incense is inexhaustible, and all the old Taoists are sincere in reciting virtue and weeping.

This mountain and a village are so close to each other, there are many contacts for many years, and the villagers often carry some firewood to send to the Taoist temple, and the Taoist temple is also a lot of convenience for the people in the village.

A few years ago, there was another family living in Baishitan, a mother and son. The woman Shen He, the young son's milk name is Bao, when he first came, his son was not yet ten years old, and Shen He spun cloth in exchange for some livelihood. It is not easy for the villagers to pity his mother and son, and they take care of it from time to time, but fortunately, there are abundant fish and shrimp in Baishitan, and Shen He's family exchanged cloth for fish and shrimp when there was a temple fair and mentioned it to sell at the temple fair, and the income was enough for the two of them to save their lives. After two years, Po grew older, and during the fishing season, he learned to catch shrimp on the shallow beach, and he gained some harvest. On weekdays, he goes up the mountain to collect firewood, and in addition to his family, he sells it to various Taoist temples at the foot of the mountain. This child is handsome and eloquent, and he gets along with the villagers and Taoist priests very well.

This year, Xiao Abao grew to 16 years old, although the family has no boat and can not go out to the sea to fish, but into Laoshan to hunt some birds and animals, pick some mountain fruits and firewood has its own skill, far better than others, inside and outside the work is done vividly, at a young age is already a pillar of the appearance.

Summer goes to autumn high, the annual Mid-Autumn Festival temple fair is imminent, Shen He rushed to make a batch of worsted fabrics, plus the mountain goods that Ah Bao has harvested these days, divided into two large baskets. Seeing that life is getting better every year, and his son is hardworking and capable, Shen He sees it in his eyes and is sweet in his heart, he just wants this time the temple will sell the goods at a good price, plus the savings of these years, and give Ah Bao a daughter-in-law, and fortunately, it is good to really take root in this white rock beach.

On the fifteenth day, Ah Bao picked up two large baskets of goods with a flat shoulder, and a few partners of the same age rushed to the foot of Laoshan Mountain early. Baishitan is very close to Laoshan Mountain, everyone goes out early, and when they come to the mountain gate, the sun has just gone up the mountain, and only a few pilgrims go up the mountain. A few people chose a good flat spot and spread out the goods, just waiting for a large number of pilgrims to arrive and sell him a lot of money.

After a while, I saw dust in the distance, and a team of horses came from afar. When they reached the mountain gate, the horses could no longer go up, so they turned over and tied the horses to the trees, leaving two servants to guard them, and the remaining five or six men went up the hill on foot.

Ah Bao and the others saw that this group of people were dressed luxuriously, how could they miss the opportunity? Tear their throats together and shout loudly. Thinking that those people are either rich or expensive, how can they pay attention to the things sold by roadside vendors? Coincidentally, there was a scholar dressed up after the fall, and when his eyes swept left and right, he suddenly made a "huh".

As soon as he spoke, the people in front of him stopped, and a young man in Tsing Yi turned around and asked, "Fourth brother, what's the matter?" ”

The scholar said: "Big brother takes care of himself to climb the mountain, but I didn't expect that the village vendors would also have high-quality goods, right?" As he spoke, he came to Bao's stall, bent down, and picked up a fox fur.

Po was overjoyed when he saw the business coming to his door. This fox skin was beaten in the mountains by him a month ago, he didn't know the quality of the fur, but when he saw that the scholar said that it was "the best quality", it was expected to be sold at a high price, and he said: "This son has a good eye, this fox skin is the thousand-year-old fairy fox of Laoshan, the son has been passed down from generation to generation, and it can really be called a priceless treasure......

The scholar smiled and said, "Nonsense, what thousand-year-old fairy fox?" Teach you a good job, this is called the silver fox, born in the bitter cold outside the plug, although it is a treasure, but you are an old twilight silver fox fur, the skin has decayed, between the gray and yellow color, at most worth a tael of silver. If it is a pure white silver fox fur in the prime of life, this son will ask for ten taels of silver, and he will ask for as much as he wants. ”

When the children heard that this fox fur was worth one tael of silver, they were all surprised, and when they heard that the pure silver fox fur was worth ten taels of silver, they looked at each other. After staying for a long time, Ah Bao said to the scholar: "Childe, this fox was caught by the little one in this mountain." Even if there is an old fox, there must be a silver fox in the prime of life, if I catch a silver fox in the prime of life, is the son really willing to give ten taels of silver? ”

The scholar said, "If you can catch the silver fox alive, I will buy it for thirty taels." If it is the fur of a dead fox, I will only give ten taels of silver. ”

Ah Bao was overjoyed and said, "A word is a certainty!" ”

At this time, the few people who walked in front had turned back, and the boy in Tsing Yi saw that the scholar was very interested in the silver fox fur, so he took out a few pieces of loose silver and threw them to Bao, saying: "One or two silver here is only a lot more, we want this fur." Tomorrow at noon we will still descend from here, and if you catch the silver fox, you will wait here. With that, he waved his hand, and the people went up the mountain with him.

Seeing that group of people walking away, other children came over, and sighed that Ah Bao was so lucky, just opened the market, and made a big deal, this two silver straight up to two large baskets of mountain goods, even if you pat your ass and go home to sleep now, it is a sure profit.

But when Bao listened to what the scholar said, his mind was full of the shadow of the silver fox, and his partner's words were not half in his ears. Dou suddenly jumped up and said to his companions: "I will go into the mountains to catch the silver fox now, but will anyone go with me?" ”

Everyone looked at each other silently, thinking that the price of the silver fox was indeed expensive, but the Taoist priests who had lived in the mountains for a long time said that this thing had a great immortal spirit, and it was rare to encounter, let alone catch it. Ah Bao asked three times in a row, but no one answered. There was a little fat man who had always been good friends with Ah Bao, and said, "Ah Bao, the last time you caught this fox, it was also a coincidence. If you deliberately catch it, you are afraid of a thousand difficulties...... Why don't we sell the mountain goods well, and you have enough silver for more than one or two......" Everyone even claimed to be.

Ah Bao knew that everyone was afraid that they would sell the goods by mistake, and they would not be able to catch the silver fox when they turned around, so they would make a bamboo basket and draw water. But he had made up his mind, and when he saw that there was no one to accompany him, he said: "I have sold these two baskets of mountain goods, and everyone has divided the silver, so I just bothered to send the baskets back to my house, and I will squeak with my mother, saying that I will sell the silver fox tomorrow, and I will go home." ”

Seeing that persuasion was useless, everyone had no choice but to occupy their stalls and continue to sell. Po took two pieces of jerky from the basket, picked a few watery duck pears, and put them in his arms. Don't walk into the incense road, take a shortcut, and climb to the depths.
