1. Cattle herders and mountain demons

A long time ago, a cattle herder was about to go to the mountain village to sell it with salted herring, but he ran into a mountain demon on the way. The mountain demon said to the cattle driver, "Cattle driver, give me a salted herring!" The cattle driver had no choice but to take out a herring from the cow's back and give it to the mountain demon, and then fled in a hurry.

But the mountain demon quickly ate the herring, and the cow walked slowly, so the cattle driver was soon chased by the mountain demon. The mountain demon and the cattle driver asked for fish to eat. In this way, the salted herring on the cow's back was quickly eaten by the mountain demon.

But the mountain demon did not stop there, but said to the cattle driver, "There are no more fish, give me the cow to eat!" Or I'll eat you!" ”

The cattle herder was so frightened that he threw the cattle aside and fled in a hurry.

The mountain demon finished eating the cow by dividing it by two, but it was still not satisfied, and caught up with the cattle herder, and said to the cow herder, "I will eat you!" ”

The cattle herder would not agree to its request in any way, so he ran away with all his might, and finally escaped to a house. But when I entered the house, I found that this was actually the home of the mountain demon. The cattle driver wanted to leave, but he heard heavy footsteps outside the door, and the cattle driver panicked, thinking, it must be the mountain demon chasing him, so he climbed to the beam of the house and hid. A black shadow appeared in the doorway, and the cattle herder glared down from the beam of the house, and saw that it was indeed a mountain demon. The mountain demon lit a fire in the house, and took out the rice cakes, it seemed that he wanted to bake the rice cakes and eat them, and he muttered in his mouth while roasting: "Today, this cattle driver is tired to death." ”

The rice cakes were baked yellow, and the fragrance filled the room, and the cattle herds on the beams of the house were spoiled, and he looked at the mountain demon, who sat there motionless, and snored from his mouth, and seemed to be asleep. The cattle driver was overjoyed, and he took out a thatched stick from the roof and poked the rice cakes one by one to eat.

The mountain demon opened his eyes and was shocked to find that the rice cake was gone, so he shouted, "Who ate my rice cake!" ”

The cattle driver was so frightened that he hugged the beams of the house and did not dare to move, and said cautiously: "It's your neighbor!" ”

The mountain demon roared angrily when he heard this, and ran out, and the cattle driver wondered, he just said casually, how can the mountain demon have any neighbors, when he came, he didn't see that it had neighbors? Just when he was puzzled, the mountain demon came back, holding a big mountain stone in his hand, and the mountain stone turned red, only to hear the mountain demon say to the stone, "Okay! Before you have even cultivated and formed, you have learned to steal things first, and watch me smash your bad things! With that, he put the stone on the ground, and with a burst of punches and kicks, the stone was smashed to pieces.

After venting his anger, the mountain demon suddenly touched the back of his head, and his mouth let out a questioning snort, probably suddenly realizing how there was a sound of talking in the house, but it did not pursue it, sat down and continued to sleep. Soon, the snoring sounded again.

The cattle driver wanted to wait for the mountain demon to go out and then escape, but it seemed that the mountain demon was not out for a while, and the cattle driver did not dare to stay here longer, he quietly climbed down the beam, and walked out against the root of the wall, when he was about to walk to the door, he did not notice the pile of broken red stones under his feet, and was tripped down at once, and made a dull "plop" sound, which woke up the mountain demon, and the mountain demon saw that it was a cattle driver, and he was happy, and said: "Oops! You've figured it out, and finally agreed to let me eat it, come to the fire, come and roast, and I'll add some more firewood. After saying that, he got up and went to a large haystack next to him to pick up firewood. The cattle herder was so frightened that he jumped up and strode out.

The cattle driver ran and ran, he had never run so fast in his life. The mountain demon roared and chased after it, its eyes red with rage. The cattle herder quickened again, and his legs were about to fly off the ground, and by this time, having reached the foot of the mountain, he ran towards the village, but from here there was still a long way to go from the village, and the cattle herder was so tired that he turned a corner, and climbed up to the big tree by the pond.

The mountain demon soon chased after him, and he stood by the pond, looking around for the shadow of the cattle herder, who held on to the trunk of the tree and did not dare to breathe. At this time, I only heard the mountain demon smile at the water surface and said, "Even if you hide in the water, you can't escape from the palm of my hand." After saying that, he jumped into the water at once, making a loud "plop" and making a huge splash. The cattle driver wondered that he was not in the water, but when he thought about it, the mountain demon must have taken his reflection in the water for him.

As soon as the mountain demon jumped in, it stopped moving, and lay flat on the bottom of the water without a sound. Because he was made of a stone, the stone sank into the water and naturally remained motionless. In this way, the stupid mountain demon was drowned, and gradually returned to its original form, becoming a red mountain stone.

Second, people with good faces

Once upon a time, there was a good man who loved face very much and was reckless. One day, he went to another city to meet friends, and after walking late, he stayed at a farmer's house.

That night, when the weather was a little cold, the farmer's master gave him a mat for him to sleep on, but he said, "We who practice martial arts have won a hundred battles, and we never cover anything when we sleep, and I don't need this mat." "The owner had to take it back.

In the middle of the night, the temperature dropped again and again, and the hero couldn't stand the cold, and in the end, he couldn't sleep. So, he woke up his master and said, "Fellow, have your rats washed their feet?" ”

The master was puzzled, and said with a confused face: "Strong man, we have never washed the feet of rats here." ”

The good man said, "In this case, in order to prevent the rats from trampling on my clothes, you should give me the mat!" ”

3. Little fox

In the past, many people believed that foxes were evil, that they lived near graves, that they were ominous symbols, that they would take on human form and play tricks on the villagers. But not all of them are like people, they are also good and bad like people.

Once upon a time, an elderly couple ran a tea shop, which was built on a major road in the mountains.

One day at noon, a man who was dressed very carefully came to the tea shop to drink tea. In fact, as long as it is not blind, it is not difficult to see that this good man is actually a fox, the clothes on its body and the saber on its waist are all items used by people, but it does not know that it still has hair on its body, its triangular ears are still straight and straight, and even its face is still pointed, obviously, this is a little fox who is not sophisticated enough. It deliberately put on a majestic appearance, which made the old couple in the tea shop laugh.

The old couple did not serve tea to the little fox, but brought a basin of water and put it in front of it.

The little fox didn't know why, thinking that this was drinking tea, so he put his head into the basin, and when he saw his own shadow in the water, he couldn't help but be surprised, only to find that he had not completely transformed at all. It quickly rushed out of the tea shop and ran away.

The next day, the old couple went to buy tea, and when they passed the mountain path, they heard someone calling to them in the depths of the forest, "Old grandfather, old grandmother!" '

Although they didn't know who was calling, the old couple still responded. The voice said, "I made you laugh yesterday at noon!" ”

In this way, the old couple knew that it was the little fox who was still shallow yesterday who was talking in front of them.

Fourth, greedy people

In the old days, there was an old woman who was very greedy, and no matter what other people had, she would say, "If you don't need it, give it to me." "Then, take the things away.

One day, the neighbor's cat caught a mouse, which was eaten down to a tail. When the neighbor went to throw his tail, he joked with the person who was enjoying the cool in the alley: "I guess even the old grandmother won't want this thing, right?" ”

As she was talking, the old woman suddenly came, saw the rat's tail in the neighbor's hand, and said, "If you don't want this tail, give it to me." ”

The people around her were very surprised and asked her, "What do you want this for?" ”

The old woman replied, "My awl is missing a cover." ”

5. The fox's revenge

Once upon a time, there was an old monk named Vajra, and people honored him as Master. He wandered outside for a long time, and then returned to the village safely. As he walked past the entrance of the village, he noticed a fox taking a nap behind the hill. King Kong cautiously approached the fox, picked up the screw and put it to the fox's ear, and blew it vigorously. The sleeping fox jumped up in fright and ran in a panic to hide in the grass in the distance.

The fox was furious, and decided to seek revenge. At noon the next day, Master Vajra, who had just returned, was going to attend a spiritual gathering in the village. The monks of the surrounding villages gathered together from all over the world and hurried together, but they encountered a strange thing on the way———— so many people came and went on the road, a fox sat by the pool as if no one was there, dressed up and used the water as a mirror, and the fox's head and shoulders were covered with grass and leaves.

Everyone didn't know what the fox was going to do, and they all came up to observe. After a while, the fox turned into the appearance of Master King Kong, and then swaggered forward. Everyone was taken aback and discussed: "This fox is so bold and rude, it has turned into the appearance of Master Vajra, what is it doing here?" Going to a party? We've got to catch it and burn the pine leaves and smoke it. ”

So everyone rushed up, and the fox-turned-Vajra Master really walked into the door of the meeting place.

At this time, the real Vajra Master is sitting at the banquet table and tasting delicious tea. But when he saw the crowd pouring into the courtyard, he shouted, "Catch this stinky fox!" ”

At the call, everyone pounced, caught Master Vajra, and pushed him to the middle of the courtyard. The young monk touched his hands and feet at Master Vajra, pulling his ears and touching his head. Before Master Vajra could figure out the situation, he was tied up with a rope and beaten up, and no matter how much Master King Kong shouted, it didn't work, and then everyone brought iron chains to tie Master Vajra to the pillar, and set a lot of pine branches on fire, intending to smoke him out of his original form. Master Vajra was so dizzy from the smoke that he was about to suffocate. Everyone worked together and shouted: "Manifest your true form!" Manifest itself! Master King Kong seemed to understand something, and cried, "I'm not a fox!" As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a noise in the flowers in the courtyard, and a fox sprang out, with its front paws erect, squinting with a smile, and said mockingly: "The bald asses have been fooled!" Ha ha! I'm here! After saying that, he ran away.

Everyone exclaimed, suddenly realized, seven hands and eight feet tied to the pillar of the King Kong master down, Master King Kong's face was blackened, everyone brought him face wash water, but, no matter how to wash, the black ash on Master King Kong's face could not fall.

Since then, Master Vajra's face has become black, and the villagers who burn incense and worship Buddha call him "Master Black Vajra." ”

Master King Kong didn't dare to provoke the fox anymore, and several times, the fox deliberately took a nap in front of him, and he recited "Amitabha", and then walked away silently, at this time, there was always a string of fox laughter behind him.
