Chapter 108: Burying his mother alive in front of Jiuli Mountain

After Chen Sheng established the state of Zhang Chu, it caused a shock in the world, and some heroes couldn't wait to get ahead, especially the people in Chu, and there were countless people who gathered together to revolt. When Chen Sheng became king in Chen County, its neighboring Surabaya County was the most affected, which naturally alarmed many heroes. At that time, in the north of Pengcheng, there were nine-mile-long mountains and elephant mountains, which were collectively called Jiuli Mountain. At the foot of the mountain lived a family surnamed Han. The old man of the family has long since died, only the old woman with two sons. The eldest son had already married another wife and started a family, so he lived with the younger son and depended on each other for their lives. The youngest son's name is Han Xin, because he has not been disciplined by his father since he was a child, and he has no good virtues, plus he is poor, and no one recommends him to do any errand in the township, and he is twenty years old this year.

Because of a chance, Han Xin was given a look at him and said, "You kid is destined to be expensive!" When Han Xin heard this, he asked curiously, "Is what Mr. said true?" The minister said, "How can I tell a lie?" But you kid has to do three short things, or you'll be a poor old man with a long life. Han Shin asked what a short affair was. The minister said: "It's a lack of virtue!" Han Xin was puzzled and asked, "What are you talking about?" If you do something that lacks morality, you will damage your longevity, who will do that? The minister said: "Yes, if you do one thing that lacks virtue, your longevity will be reduced by eighteen years, and the three things add up to fifty-four years." If you don't do short things, you are destined to be mediocre in this life! Han Xin pondered for a long time and said, "After doing three short things, how expensive can it be?" The phase affirmed: "I will be able to seal the king and worship the general, and the general will enter the phase!" Han Xin listened to it smoothly, and thought to himself: Wu Qi killed his wife and begged for a general, and achieved great feats, this person is the big hero I admire the most. The eldest husband was born in heaven and earth, and he should be like him, and his name will go down in history.

But Han Xin's family was too poor, so in order to be able to eat enough, he went to herd sheep for others. One day, Han Xin drove a flock of sheep to Jiuli Mountain, and when he saw the sheep leisurely grazing grass on the hillside, he rested on the side and covered his face with a straw hat. After a while, he suddenly heard someone talking, and Han Xin lay there motionless and listened to others. It turned out that during the Qin period, there were many doctors in the Qin State who looked at the cloud qi dragon veins everywhere, so this work was also very popular among the people. At that time, there were Kanyu teachers passing by here, and one of them said, "Senior brother, what do you think of this place?" Another asked, "Where?" The man said, "It's the place where the sheep and the baby are lying." Another said: "It is indeed a treasure of feng shui, if the ancestors of whose family can be buried here, the descendants will be prosperous!" This place is truly an extraordinary treasure! Another said: "Senior brother, in my opinion, the sheep baby may not be lying on the right acupoint, if it can be moved up a little to the right, it is the right position of the treasure acupoint!" Saying unintentionally, the listener had a heart, so Han Xin pretended to turn over, and moved to the right. I just listened to the people above keep saying, "Quasi! Permit! Permit! It's completely in the right position of the treasure cave! After the two had finished speaking, they sighed and left, and as they went, they said, "Alas! Such a wonderful place, but the world does not know about it! Pity! Pity! Han Xinxin thought that it turned out that two feng shui gentlemen had passed by here. Han Xin estimated that Mr. Feng Shui had gone away, so he got up slowly, and when he saw that there was no one around, he marked the place where he had been lying, and then drove the sheep down the mountain.

When Han Xin returned home, he was happy in his heart, but when he thought about it, his father had died a long time ago, and now he only had his mother. Although my mother is old and sick, she said that she was going to die, but it was still early. Han Xin thought again, didn't the gentleman who looked at the appearance say that he would do three things that lacked morality? If the mother dies normally, it is not called a lack of virtue, and if such a good place is let others take advantage of it, wouldn't it be beneficial for others?

The next day, Han Xin drove the sheep to the mountain, and he sat in the marked place for a whole day, and he meditated on it, his head was about to explode, and his brain seemed to be thunder and lightning. Finally evil triumphed over justice, crime over conscience, and brutality over reason. Suddenly, a downpour fell from the sky, and Han Xin couldn't hide too late, so he drove the sheep down the mountain in the heavy rain.

That night, Han Xin took the farm tools, and he went to the mountain alone, and found the place where the mark was made. After Han Xin determined that the location was accurate, he began to dig and dig, and dug until dawn, and dug a big hole. Han Xin was exhausted at this time, so in order to cover people's eyes and ears, he found some branches around to cover them. After Han Xin had prepared everything, he hid the farm tools and hurried down the mountain.

On this day, he still came to the mountain to graze the sheep, but he no longer had the heart to watch the sheep grazing grass, and only thought about what he did. Before it was dark, he drove the sheep down the mountain. In the evening, when he came home and finished eating, he stared at his mother and wept. When his mother saw this, she asked him what was the matter. Han Xin hesitated, so he had to say: "The child is not filial, and he didn't let his mother enjoy a day of wealth!" The mother said: "Good men are ambitious in all directions, don't cry and cry, now the world is in chaos, you should go out and have a career, you should also do a man's career, don't stay at home all day and sigh!" Han Xin was vague and noncommittal.

When it got dark, Han Xin quietly knocked on his mother's door. The mother opened the door, and when she saw that it was Han Xin, she asked what was the matter. Han Xin pretended to be surprised: "The child wants to tell his mother a good thing!" Then he went in and closed the door, and then said, "When the child came down from the mountain today, he found a great pit with many treasures, and I was afraid that someone else had kept them, so I kept there, but when it was dark, no one came to take them." Now tell your mother what you have decided. Mother said: "Your Han family is in decline, and the poor are indeed choked, and now you suddenly see treasures, I'm afraid it's a bad omen." Ill-gotten wealth is not advisable, so it is better for my son not to touch it? When Han Xin saw his mother say this, he said, "Ill-gotten wealth cannot be obtained, but no one has taken those treasures, so what does it matter if we take them?" Han's mother said: "I've been beating my eyes lately, I'm afraid of disasters!" When Han Xin heard this, he was secretly surprised, and repeatedly begged his mother to take a look. The mother couldn't be stubborn, so she had to follow Han Xin to Jiuli Mountain.

The two of them walked for half the night, and finally came to the place where Han Xin dug the pit. Han's mother walked very hard, and when she came to the destination, she asked where the treasure was. Han Xin pointed to the big pit and said, "It's in that pit." When the mother approached and looked down, it was dark, and she asked, "Son, my mother can't see anything." This pit seems to have been dug by someone else to bury people, I ......" Before his mother finished speaking, Han Xin said in a panic: "Mother, the child really can't stand your old man!" Once upon a time, a gentleman who looked at his face said that if the child can do three things that lack virtue in the future, he will definitely be able to be crowned a king and a general. The day before yesterday, the child met two feng shui gentlemen, saying that this place is a treasure cave, so invite the mother to come here, and you will fulfill the child, right? In the future, if the child can be crowned a king and worship a general, I will definitely build a tomb and a temple for you! He pushed his mother down from behind.

Han's mother was stunned all of a sudden, and before she could react to what was going on, she was buried alive by Han Xinxin's shovel of soil. Han Xin buried his mother, sweating profusely, he knelt next to him and cried, crying was really sad, because he was really guilty, and he was very sad. Suddenly, a flash of light swept across the sky, illuminating the surroundings as if it were daylight, followed by a downpour. Han Xin didn't see the changes in the sky at all, he saw the thunder and lightning, and thought that the heavens were coming to ask for his life, so he ran down the mountain with a rolling belt.

After dawn, Han Xin came to the house and told his brother and sister-in-law that he lost a sheep when she was herding sheep during the day, and she went up the mountain with her mother to look for sheep last night. Han Xin's elder brother was also an honest man, so he believed his brother's words, because he categorically would not expect his younger brother to do such a thing, so he could only cry and sacrifice to Han Xin, and regarded this place as an ancestral grave.

After his mother's death, Han Shin wanted to split up. My brother and sister-in-law said: "Each is his own home, and there is nothing to divide?" Han Xin said, "The well of your house should also be divided." My brother and sister-in-law said, "There is only one well, how can I divide it?" But Han Xin didn't agree, he had to divide the well into two. My brother and sister-in-law had no choice but to say, "How can a well be divided into two halves?" Han Xin said: "Just separate from the middle, I will use half of mine!" You use that half, and we don't interfere with each other. My brother and sister-in-law smiled and agreed. But a few days later, my brother found Han Xin squatting on his side, pooping and peeing in it. In a fit of rage, my brother fell ill. The sister-in-law publicized this matter everywhere, but the good things didn't go out, and the bad things spread thousands of miles, and people were condemning Han Xin for being too immoral, and some people also suspected that Han Xin's mother might have been murdered by Han Xin, but everyone had no conclusive evidence, and the matter was over.

At that time, there were people who knew feng shui, and when they went to the tomb of Han Xin's mother, they saw that the cemetery was high and open, and the Ming Hall could accommodate 10,000 households, which was indeed a good place. Only the person who gave Han Xin a face showed Han's mother's grave, and he understood in his heart: buried his mother alive in front of Jiuli Mountain, and the two brothers divided the well. These two things are absolutely true, so he sighed: "Bai Qi killed his wife and begged for a general, and Han Xin buried his mother and begged for an official today." This person is so femme fatale, he has lost his conscience, and he will not die well in the future, but a military genius will be born in the world! ”

Han Shin, who was morally degraded, was more and more condemned and spurned by people, and it seemed that he couldn't stay here anymore, so Han Shin decided to leave. He came to live in Huaiyin County, which was under the jurisdiction of Donghai County, a town in the middle of Donghai County. When Han Xin first arrived, people didn't know about his past, so no one told him any more gossip, not only that, but some people also took the initiative to call him. It just so happened that there was a pavilion in the countryside of Huaiyin County, called Nanchang Pavilion, and the pavilion chief of this pavilion met Han Xin by chance. After a while, the two became very acquainted, and the pavilion chief invited Han Xin to his house as a guest. When Han Xin came to the pavilion chief's house, he talked about the art of war and some classic wars in ancient times. The pavilion chief also liked to hear these stories, and when he saw that Han Xin had studied the art of war, he thought he was a strange man, so he let him stay at home for a long time to eat. After a while, the pavilion chief's wife couldn't stand it anymore and spoke ill of Han Shin to her husband. The pavilion chief said to his wife: "Han Xin is a strange person, don't look at him poor, he will definitely come out again in the future!" You girl, you really have long hair and short knowledge, once such a person breaks off the relationship, it will be too late to regret it in the future! The wife was very angry and said, "Han Xin can't even eat, what can he do?" I think he's just a slacker who cheats on eating and drinking! The pavilion chief had no choice but to let it go.

Two days later, in order to drive away Han Xin, the pavilion chief's wife got up early to cook, and when Han Xin went to eat, the pavilion chief's wife stopped greeting him. For three days in a row, Han Xin came to say goodbye to the pavilion chief: "You have a beginning and an end, you are not a hero, I don't feel sorry to lose a friend like you!" After saying that, he walked away without looking back.

But Han Xin still couldn't eat, and he was still hungry and wandering around. One day, he went fishing on the edge of the Huai River in the west of the city, but unfortunately he didn't catch a single fish for the whole day. At dusk, he fainted by the river. It just so happened that there was an old lady who rinsed silk cotton, known as the bleaching mother. When the drifting mother saw Han Xin fainting, she took out her own food for him to eat. Han Xin ate before slowly waking up. In this way, the drifting mother washed the silk cotton by the river for more than ten days, and Han Xin also followed her to eat ready-made cotton for more than ten days.

When Drifting Mother gave Han Xin a meal for the last time, she said to him: "You are young, you should also learn a craft to earn money to support yourself." Han Xin was grateful and happy when he heard this, so he said: "I will definitely listen to you, but you have helped me a lot these days, if I Han Xin is rich in the future, I must repay your old man heavily!" After hearing this, Piao's mother said angrily: "A man can't support himself, I just pity you and give you food, who wants you to repay?" Bastard, you remember, 'The big husband can't be without power for a day, and the little husband can't be without money for a day'! Your Han Xin's husband is not counted, but as a young husband, you should earn money to support yourself. Now that the world is in chaos, and the men have gone out to fight as soldiers, you don't want to be so unproductive! After saying that, he pulled his face and left.

Han Xin stared blankly at the back of the drifting mother, and he really didn't know what it was like. With the passage of time, the image of this amiable and respectable drifting mother has left an indelible memory in his heart, especially the words she said before leaving, which have also become a motto that spurs and motivates Han Xin to strive for self-improvement, hard work, and ambition.
