Chapter 212: The Four Masterpieces (1)
On the plains, as far as the eye can see, dots of starlight sprinkle all over the land.
The people in the teahouse are all listening to one story after another with their ears sideways, telling their stories one after another, gradually unloading some of their past customs in the wind, and then letting it disperse with the wind.
Runzhi relied on the feeling in his heart, turned his feelings into these countless words with a little emotion, through the emotions between the lines, trying to move the audience little by little, to promote some beautiful things, when he thought in his heart about how many stories to tell, how to present these stories to the audience, his inner mind moved, he suddenly felt that he had countless things to express.
Runzhi made up some plots in his mind, and then combined with his own understanding of the traditional quintessence, he tried to show these things to the public in the form of stories, so that the public can get a very sincere emotional nourishment and love edification from the heart.
Naturally, among these quintessences of the country, Runzhi suddenly thought of why not combine the four famous novels with some stories, and convey some of the truth, goodness and beauty that he understands in his heart through many ghosts and gods with bull heads and horses and many demons and monsters?
After thinking of this in his heart, Runzhi seemed to have an enlightenment, so according to the framework of the story in his mind, he slowly came up with a very legendary ghost story, and only heard him tell me:
"Have you ever heard of the four famous Chinese novels, the so-called four famous novels are "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", "Water Margin", "Journey to the West" and "Dream of Red Mansions", in fact, these four famous books also have a story?"
When everyone heard this, they felt very fresh.
It turned out that these four famous works were first proposed by a scholar who loved the "Stone Records" written by Cao Xueqin very much, and was highly recognized by the Yongzheng Emperor, and in the imperial examination, a question was formulated to test a lot of knowledge in these four famous works.
Runzhi was indignant and began to tell the story of the past and present life of this "Four Famous Books":
It is said that at the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, a young man with great ambitions to save the common people, this person's surname is Luo, his name is in the book, and he loves to read very much.
He often told humanity that this meal could go a day without eating, but this book should never be read for a day. Since this person entered the year of the weak crown, he began to study behind closed doors, learning the way of governing the country from the famous Confucian masters at that time.
Because people who read books since ancient times have been lonely, when Luo Guanzhong finished reading the thirty-fourth book "Zizhi Tongjian" at the age of eighteen, it was already late at night.
Suddenly, the candlelight flickered, and a stunning beauty as beautiful as a flower came out.
This Luo Guanzhong didn't feel frightened at all, after all, he was open-minded, he had never had evil thoughts in his heart, and he had never done the slightest bad thing of adultery and fraud.
At the beginning, Luo Guanzhong thought that this woman was just a lonely ghost in the legend, and since he found himself, there must have been something or fate.
Luo Guanzhong thought that between this place, there is good and evil retribution, and what should come will always come, since this woman came to find herself, then she must have a fate with herself, whether it is an evil ghost or a good kind, she has good intentions, and she can naturally start and end well.
In Luo Guanzhong's opinion, this ghost will definitely not harm himself, after all, he has always maintained his own heroic righteousness, even if this evil ghost finds the wrong person and punishes the wrong person, then between this land, the six reincarnations, naturally there is a corresponding force that will settle accounts with her, so why should I worry?
Of course, Luo Guanzhong knew that his door was already locked, and this woman suddenly appeared in front of him like a cloud of smoke, presumably it must be a god or a demon, but in order to show basic respect and prevent misjudgment, this Luo Guanzhong also regarded him as an ordinary person, and asked frankly: "This girl, late at night, I don't know what the girl is going to be in the study, what is the so-called thing?" ”
I saw this woman smile slightly, and the beauty of this alluring country and city was even more moving.
This mysterious stunning woman gently put the crumpled waste paper on Luo Guanzhong's desk into the bamboo basket on the ground where the waste paper is placed, and said with a foolish smile:
"Lord Luo, the slave maid has no name or surname, but is assigned by God, specially refined from the latest technology of the underworld, among the many good and beautiful female ghosts, the most beautiful, best and most virtuous ghost beauty is selected, and is named "Freeze Frame Serving Immortals". This is the lower immortal, ranked at the end of the immortal class, and is specially used to serve the food and daily life of the husband. The imperial decree stipulates that the name of the slave and maid shall be named by the gentleman himself, and from now on, no matter where the gentleman is, the slave and maid will be with him. It's just that although the slave maid is in the immortal class, it is a special immortal in the last position that appears after the latest innovation of the immortal class. The slave and maid are humble, and all the things that mortals can do on weekdays, the slave and maid can do them one by one for the husband, and they are also familiar with some basic change techniques. However, due to the special mission of the slave and maid, only the husband can see it from the day she accompanies the husband, and has all the authority to touch the concubine's body. From now on, the concubine is not only the slave of Mr., but also the concubine of Mr., or the assistant who secretly helps Mr. solve the economic way, in short, the emperor has an order: all the fixed frame immortals must go all out to secretly assist many heroes of all generations in China, from the date of adulthood to his departure from the mortal world, always inseparable from it, sharing weal and woe, and fully assisting, helping it to realize the mission of Chinese rejuvenation, prosperity, good life, opening up Yuan Yu, and entering the universe, without the slightest slack, if violators will be stripped of their immortal titles, reclassified into the underworld sequence, and in the fifth room of the third layer of the eighteen layers of hell, he will receive the punishment of a thousand years of flame roasting souls, if he acts recklessly in the human world and endangers the human world, his soul will be wiped out in an instant."
This woman is dressed in white and dressed, with long hair fluttering, a graceful figure, a face like a peach blossom, skin as white as snow, and her appearance is thousands of times better than the concubines and beauties in the palace.
It turned out that this woman was from the five thousand years of the Chinese people, the appearance of various generations of beautiful and perfect virtue, very capable and outstanding and proficient in the way of waiting, many princes, generals, queens, concubines or princesses, and the mortal world's talented and noble people, such as Xi Shi, Diao Chan and other folk beautiful ghosts, and the most beautiful since ancient times, the most noble moral character of the man's soul, with the latest invention of the immortal mansion, melted together. Since then, although the soul of the new ghost has lost all its previous memories, it has the essence of all the beauty and character of all its owners, and those who are thus integrated into the strong spirit of the top ground become male ghosts, and those who are integrated into the warmth of the closed moon and shy flowers are female ghosts.
The new female ghost spirit refined in this way is naturally the most beautiful and the best character among all the female ghosts, and the freeze frame serving immortal is from the latest soul extracted from this, in case of picking one into the best soul, and then according to the order of the innovative immortal class, it will be promoted to the last immortal class, that is, "fixed frame serving immortals".
