Chapter 599: Charlatans

Xiao Tianshu smiled: "Okay, that's not as good as these charlatans, it's better to be careful, you can't say it so slowly, some things can't be promoted vigorously, just like all people go to eat mung beans, in fact, which food is not nutritious, just like all people say that apples are nutritious, then our ancient gods still eat peaches, don't peaches have nutrition?" ”

  Nian Fu smiled: "Hehe, don't say that he is really strange, we all believed in ancient times, peaches are fairy peaches, and I haven't heard of any messy fruits yet."

  Xiao Tianshu said with a smile: "At that time, the main apples were not the place of origin, at the beginning of Xinjiang, Europe, and later the Han Dynasty came over and popularized, but there are also apples that have been cultivated in China for more than 2,000 years, and it is said that Xia Yu ate the "purple pimple", which is a red apple, which shows that the history of apples in China has been very long. Guo Yigong of the Jin Dynasty said in his book "Guangzhi": "There are many cases in the West, and every family harvests and cuts and exposes dry as preserved food, and tens of hundreds of Hu are accumulated, which is called frequent grain." ”

  Nian Fu smiled and said: "Anyway, peaches are eaten by immortals, and they are in line with the aesthetic ...... of our ancient Chinese."

  Xiao Tianshu said with a smile: "Not to mention Xiantao, of course, there are some interesting folk legends that before Li Chengxian was abducted, he had a wife and a son. Tie Li is lame, his family is surrounded by walls, it is Chinese New Year's Eve, but there is not even an oil lamp at home. ”

  Nian Fu smiled and said: "Yes, it's still interesting ......."

  His wife cried: "My neighbor's house is cold for the New Year, and my neighbor's house is bright, but my house has no lights." Tie Guan Li listened, but closed his eyes and didn't speak. After a while, he made a dummy out of wood and wanted to steal oil. When I arrived at the neighbor's house in the middle of the night, I was afraid that people would notice, so I used the wooden man to enter the door to test, and the neighbor really noticed it, and slashed with a knife, and the wooden man fell to the ground in response, and Tie Guan Li ran away. Since then, Tie Guan Li has been bent on seeking immortals, traveling all over the world to find immortals, and finally detached from the body and became immortals. His wife worked hard to raise a son to adulthood. On the day of the wedding, Tie Guan Li went down to visit, but saw the courtyard of the deep house, the courtyard was like a city, and his wife was brightly dressed, busy in the courtyard, entertaining guests. When Tie Guan Li saw it, he sighed nonstop, so he turned Tie Guan into a pen and inscribed a poem on the wall: "Stealing lamp oil at thirty nights, cutting off the head of a wooden man with a steel knife, children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, who will make horses and cattle for their children and grandchildren!" After writing, he took the crutch and left. When a guest saw him, he disappeared from the inscription, and in his bewilderment, shouted at the wall. His wife was shocked to hear that her husband was coming, and went out to look for him, and saw his back outside the village, with white hair like a broom, lame and hunchbacked. Tie Guan Li waved and split the ground, only to hear a thunderclap, the earth cracked, became a canyon, his wife was helpless, crawled on the ground and cried, suddenly saw Tie Guan Li throwing crutches, turning into a dragon, and riding the dragon away.

  Nian Fu said: "I think this story is a product of the feudal era, this woman is working hard to raise children at home, she still has to go out to earn money, and the things in her own family can't be solved, how can he hold on to the mountain?" I think this is also an excuse for men to cheat and abandon their families and children. If that's the case, it's impossible, but this story is educating people not to work too hard for their children and grandchildren, and grandchildren have the blessings of their children and grandchildren, and they still want to be, don't be too painful because of these things, and they are also persuading people to think about it......"

  Xiao Tianshu said with a smile: "That's what I'm talking about, if it's the current society, I'm afraid those feminists won't be happy when they hear this story, for sure, Tie Guan Li is a scumbag, these stories are just legends, who knows if it's true or false......"

  Nian Fu smiled and said: "The benevolent see the benevolent and the wise see the wise, it depends on how to understand it, anyway, the understanding of this story is that the gods can also steal oil, although they can become immortals by abandoning their families and children, but you said that this has been a monk and a Taoist priest from ancient times to the present, it is not all abandonment, how can there be so many responsibilities, it has to be completed, if it is completed, he will not have time to cultivate immortals and gain Taoism......"

  Xiao Tianshu smiled: "Hehe, it's also ......"

  Nian Fu smiled: "I think he met his wife, and after a while, he drew a deep canyon between the two people, you say it's a canyon, won't it make people too indifferent to the city and the countryside, no matter how people have given him responsibility, if this wife doesn't take responsibility for him, whether he has the qualifications to become an immortal is still a thing, the ancient people made up stories It seems that men are making up." There is really more than one place to favor men, if Yi Chu stands on the other side of the canyon and scolds him for being a charlatan, you can sell your dog skin plaster......

  Xiao Tianshu said with a smile: "Hehe, according to legend, there is a traveling doctor in the rivers and lakes, and his specialty is to use herbal medicine to treat small injuries such as bruises, stings, sores and so on. The effect is average, but it is very troublesome, but he is kind-hearted and quite virtuous, as long as it comes to the door, no matter whether it is high or low, he will treat it carefully. If the patient is poor and has no money to pay for the medicine, he will not charge a penny. After Tie Guan Li learned about it, he wanted to bring the traveling doctor, so he turned into a beggar and went to deliberately test it. Tie Guan Li came to the door of the traveling doctor, asked him to treat his lameness, and declared that he had no money to pay for the medical bills. Seeing that Tie Guan Li was really pitiful, the doctor didn't say a word, and changed the dressing for his leg every day, and he didn't get tired of it. Who knows, the worse the leg gets, the more Li scolds. Doctor You felt guilty, let him stay in a hotel, and bought dog meat for him to nourish his body. After eating the dog meat, Tie Guan Li scolded his medicine for being fake, poured the medicine of the tour doctor into the dog meat soup and stirred, and then put the medicine that had been boiled into a paste and threw it on the dog skin on the wall. When the doctor was stunned, Tie Guan Li disappeared incognito. Only then did the traveling doctor understand that it was the gods who were dialing him. Later, he used Professor Li's method to treat his injuries, which was very effective. This may be the origin of "dog skin plaster", but because some Jianghu traveling doctors have improper intentions, ignorance of conscience, and concentrate on cheating, and ruined the reputation of "dog skin plaster", so that when people hear "dog skin plaster", they will be equated with deception. ”

  Nian Fu said with a smile: "Hehe, it can be seen that although Shenshan did not deceive the majority of the people, he still failed his family, this is still a charlatan, if in modern times, he will make people's stomachs bigger, and he will be angry with others, and his children will run away by himself, isn't he a liar?" The reputation of charlatans seems to be not small, but the ancient people were very tolerant of men, and they became immortals after running for so many years, and after coming back, the wife can still be said to be the husband, which is also the beginning, if it were now, this wife would have married someone else......"
