"Moo Moo ......"

"Moo Moo ......"

A long howl of sorrow spread in the noisy streets, and a group of people gathered around the slaughterhouse, listening to the strange pitiful sound, and Yishan Xing, who went out to catch the market, pulled his steps and came up.

I saw a black bull tied to the crowd, and a man with five big and three thick men was sharpening his knife on the side, it seemed that he was going to kill the cow, and the black bull seemed to feel that the death was coming, and he let out a sad cry like human nature, as if he was pleading with someone.

"This cow looks very strong, how good the cultivated land is, why kill it!"

"yes! It's sturdy, and it can work. ”

"You see that its leg is injured and can't work, so the owner brought it to kill it!"

"Yes, look at the leg injury, it's a pity!"

"The cow knows that it is going to die, and its song is also sad!"

There was a lot of talk in the crowd.

Yi Shanxing looked at the big black cow tied to the head of the column to be slaughtered, and his heart was very uncomfortable, he was tired and tired from plowing the fields, and in the end he was injured and had to be slaughtered.

Thinking about it, Yishanxing stepped forward and touched the head of the black cow, the black cow seemed to feel something and stopped screaming, and rubbed Yishanxing's palm and looked at Yishanxing with blank eyes.

"Get out of the way, old man, and don't splash your blood when you slaughter the cow later. The man lifted the cattle slaughtering knife and prepared to slaughter the cow.

"Can you sell me this cow?" said Yi Shanxing, who said for the first time.

"What! you want to buy this lame cow, I heard you right!" the big man carried the cattle slaughtering knife and looked at Yishan in disbelief.

"Did you hear it right, how do you sell it?" Yi Shanxing touched the head of the black bull, his expression was very serious.

......

In this way, Yishan Xing bought the cow and took it away under the strange eyes of others, looking at the limping black cow, people laughed at this old man for being so stupid, buying a lame cow and not being able to plough the land to work!

But Yishan Xing didn't care, and happily took the cow away, he always felt that this black cow was worth buying.

Brought the cow home, the son and daughter-in-law were dumbfounded, originally today's market son was going to buy two calves, raise a good farmland, but did not expect the father to buy a lame cow back, the son even thought that the father was either deceived by someone, or stupid.

But the father insisted again and again, and the son and daughter-in-law could only accept it except for a few complaints.

The people in the village knew that Yishanxing had bought a lame cow, and they all laughed at him for being stupid, but Yishanxing didn't think so.

Time passed slowly like this, Yishan Xing led the lame cow to graze every day, and also treated the black cow's leg, the lame cow slowly rejuvenated under his care, although the lame leg could not be cured, but it was also much better, and it could also plow some land and pull some things, but it was slower.

In the face of this lame cow, the son complained more than once, and persuaded his father many times to sell it and buy another good cow, but Yishan Xing didn't want to refuse.

Looking at this old and lame combination, the people in the village couldn't help but laugh at it, Yishan Xing didn't care, but his son cared!

People want to face trees and bark, there is such a stupid father, he feels that he can't raise his head in the village, so he always wants to get the cow away, but the old father is inseparable from it, and he has never had a chance to start.

Until one day, the lame ox was finally gone, but he was not happy.

It was raining heavily that day, and the river rose all at once, and the half-human-high waves tore at the small wooden bridge on the river from time to time......

The son, who was sheltering from the rain in the house, suddenly remembered that his father seemed to be still on the other side of the river, so he ran to the river, and the small wooden bridge would be flooded after such a heavy rain.

Running to the river, the son was stunned by what he saw, the small wooden bridge had been half washed away, and only a few pillars were left to tremble in the water......

The son shouted in a hurry, and finally the most worrying scene appeared, on a bridge pillar in the center of the river, a black figure loomed in the waves, wasn't it his father!

My father must have been crossing the river when he happened to encounter a small wooden bridge that was washed away.

The son was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, and several times he wanted to rush into the river to save his father, but the raging river shook him like a beast.

Seeing that the father was almost unable to support it, the son gritted his teeth and planned to rush into the flood, but the accident happened.

I saw a black shadow floating up from under the water and carrying it to the mountain, slowly swimming towards the river, and the son was overjoyed and thought that the river god had appeared.

After a while, the exhausted Yishan Xing slowly approached the shore, but the accident happened, a piece of wood floating upstream hit it, and only a scream of "whoop" was heard. The son was quick-eyed, grabbed Yishanxing's collar and dragged him to the shore.

But the black shadow carrying the mountain was not so lucky, and was hit by the piece of wood, rolling and submerging with the flood......

At that moment, the son saw clearly which was the river god, and it was clearly the lame cow he wanted to sell.

Yishanxing was carried home by his son, and it didn't take long for him to wake up, and when he learned that it was the lame cow who saved him, he felt very uncomfortable, what a good cow was gone.

A year later, the river has already become calm, the small wooden bridge on the river has been repaired, Yishan Xing sat at the head of the bridge, holding a cigarette bag in his hand, looking at the middle of the river in a daze, every time he walked across the small wooden bridge he had to sit for a while, his muddy eyes tried to search the river, but he found nothing except the calm river.

"Whoa......"

The familiar cry suddenly brought the daze Yishan Xing back to reality.

He squinted and followed the sound to look at the middle of the river, with an expression of disbelief.

I saw a black cow limping towards him, followed by a chubby calf......

The villagers speculated that the lame ox should have been brought into the mountains by the flood, and it was not dead, and it mated with the bison to give birth to the calf, but everyone could not guess how it came back.

Since then, the old and lame combination has reappeared in Murakami, but no one has laughed at them anymore.

Meng Po, the owner of Meng Po Soup, studied and read Jane since she was a child, and when she grew up, she began to teach the Taoist Xuanjing.

When she was still alive, she never remembered the past, nor did she think about the future, but only wholeheartedly persuaded people not to kill and to do more good.

Until she was eighty-one years old, she was still a virgin. She didn't know what her surname was, so she changed it to 'Meng', so people called her "Grandma Meng".

Later, Mrs. Meng went to the mountains to practice until she died of old age.

Because at that time, people in the world knew the causes of their past lives, and they often leaked the secrets of heaven, so the Emperor of Heaven specially appointed Grandma Meng Po as the god of the underworld and built a platform for her.

In the Hades Sutra, it is said that after the ghosts have been punished in each hall, they are sent to the next hall in order, and finally transferred to the tenth hall and delivered to the wheel king. The tenth hall is in charge of ghost reincarnation, and all ghosts who are sent here to prepare for reincarnation will first be escorted to the altar under the control of the god Meng Po to drink Meng Po soup, so that the ghosts can forget their previous lives.

According to legend, the practice of Meng Po soup is first taken from the ghosts who are judged to be sent to various places in the ten halls, and then added medicinal materials collected from the world to make a soup like wine, which is divided into five flavors: sweet, bitter, pungent, sour and salty.

All ghosts that are ready to be reincarnated have to drink Meng Po's Meng Po soup, and if there is a cunning ghost who refuses to drink, a hook knife will immediately appear under its feet to stumble its feet, and a sharp copper pipe will pierce its throat, forcing it down, and no ghost will be spared.

Meng Po has a Meng Po shop in the underworld, and the place where she lives is called Meng Po Village.

About Meng Po, there is a story about Yi Sheng not drinking Meng Po soup.

Once upon a time there was a courtesan named Lan Rui, and she had a younger sister Yu Rui who was like a flower. Yurui and Yisheng fell in love with each other deeply, but because Yisheng was very poor, he couldn't afford to marry Yurui, and later Lan Rui died of illness, and Yisheng was martyred because he couldn't stay with Yurui for a lifetime.

After his death, he came to the underworld, and when the king of Yama saw that he had died innocently, he sentenced him to be reincarnated as a human being.

After hearing the order, he was ready to reincarnate again.

Yisheng walked alone in a daze, and suddenly came to the bottom of a shed covered with vines.

I saw hundreds of men and women, scrambling to grab the ladle and hurriedly scoop water from the stove to drink.

Yisheng felt that his mouth was dry because he was tired from walking, so he also wanted to go up and drink the water in the scoop.

At this time, a woman came out from behind the shed, and when Yisheng took a closer look, it turned out to be Lan Rui.
