Do cattle and horses to repay
Many people have said "I will repay you by being a cow and a horse in my next life", Lord Yama does not take this sentence as a child's play, if a person does too many wrong things, he will really become a cow in the next life and pay off the debts owed in his previous life......
Zhang Fu is a responsible farmer, and he has a very good friend named Aman. Aman is addicted to gambling, he not only lost all his family property, but also borrowed money from relatives and friends in order to turn over the book, so that everyone avoided him when they saw him.
That night, as soon as Zhang Fu had eaten, Aman came to the door and offered to borrow money. In the past, Zhang Fu was embarrassed, and he also lent Aman money several times, but naturally there was no return. Zhang Fu said bitterly: "You better stop, if you quit gambling, you don't have to pay back the money I lent you in the past, and I will help you find a job to support yourself." ”
Aman stared at the red eyes and said, "That kind of life is too tiring, and it's not interesting to live, even if I fight for this life, I have to gamble again tonight." I know you have a deposit, lend it all to me, and if I win, pay you back double; If I lose, even if I become a cow or a horse in the next life, I will repay your debt. What do you think? ”
Ah Man looked like he was in a rage, Zhang Fu didn't dare to disagree, so he had to take out all his savings for many years. Aman counted the numbers, a total of twenty-eight, and he made an IOU and left.
The colorful banknotes turned into a note in a blink of an eye, and Zhang Fu wanted to cry without tears. And this note was only a day later, and it was completely scrapped: Aman lost all his money overnight, was desperate, and finally jumped off the building. Aman was crushed, and most of the day passed, only watching the excitement, but no one was willing to collect his body. In the end, Zhang Fu couldn't bear it and paid for him to do the funeral.
Two months have passed in the blink of an eye. On this day, Zhang Fu was doing farm work in the field, when suddenly a big black cow came running from a distance, but stopped in front of him. Zhang Fu, a cultivator in the village, recognized it, but this cow was very unfamiliar, and there was not even a leash on it, as if it was running from outside.
Hei Niu had a natural affinity for Zhang Fu, circled around him a few times, and lowered his head to rub his feet. Suddenly, Zhang Fu found that there was a crescent-like mark on the black bull's forehead, and he was stunned, because he thought that Ah Man also had such a birthmark on his head.
Zhang Fu stroked the cow's head and asked softly, "Aman, is it you?" ”
Hei Niu nodded a few times, shed two lines of tears, and actually said human words: "It's me, I did too many wrong things in my last life, Lord Yama punished me for turning into a cow to pay off my debts, and I can't be reincarnated as a man if I don't pay it back, and I can be regarded as keeping my promise!" It just so happens that Zhang Fu's farming cattle are old, and he is worried about how to save money to buy cattle these days, and the arrival of the black cattle can be described as timely rain. Zhang Fu set the plow for the black ox, and it immediately began to work like a happy man.
When he came home from work in the evening, Zhang Man fried a few good dishes, wanting to treat the black cow well. The black bull shook his head and said, "Now that I have become a cow, I can no longer eat human food. From now on I will only eat fodder, and you will only feed me with inferior fodder, and if you eat too well, you will not be able to pay off these debts in this life. The black bull also told Zhang Fu that because they were friends in their previous lives, it could only speak in front of him, but as long as outsiders were present, it could not speak, and it was only like an ordinary cow.
Zhang Fu was full of emotion, in fact, he still regarded the black cow as a friend in his heart, and still called it Aman in private, and he also carefully cleaned the cowshed and laid a thick layer of straw, so that Aman could sleep comfortably at night.
There is a second-rate man named Ada in the village, who specializes in stealing chickens and dogs, and secretly lending usury to make huge profits, and the village can't hide anything from his eyes. Ada saw that Zhang Fuping had a ploughing cow for nothing, so he was naturally hungry and drooled, and planned to wait for the dead of night to have a hand in the cow.
That night, Ada quietly jumped over the wall and jumped into the gate of Zhang's house. He glanced into the house, but there was no light, and then he gently pushed open the cowshed, and turned on the flashlight, and Aman was dozing off on his stomach, not asleep yet.
Ada threw out the rope noose that had been prepared earlier, just put it into Aman's neck, and then pulled it just right, Aman stood up in pain, wanted to scream but couldn't, wanted to struggle but couldn't exert his strength, so he could only follow Ada out.
Ada was proud, and suddenly there was a rapid sound of bells, and before he could react, Zhang Fu had already rushed to block him with a wooden stick. Zhang Fu couldn't say anything, and a random beating made Ada scream, and finally had to beg for mercy: "Don't fight, please let me go." ”
Only then did Zhang Fu see that the other party was Ada, and said angrily: "If it were someone else, it would be fine." You have done too many bad things, and this time it falls into my hands, I must send you to justice. He picked up the rope of Ada and tied Ada into a rice dumpling.
Ada couldn't struggle, gritted his teeth and scolded: "Who is afraid of whom?" The origin of this cow is unknown, and you stole it eighty percent. If you're smart, let me go, and if things get bigger, you won't have any good fruit to eat!" ”
Zhang Fu was too lazy to theorize, he went back to the house and lay on the bed, secretly applauding Aman's wit in his heart. It turned out that this was Aman's idea, and he was worried that someone would have bad intentions, so he asked Zhang Fu to buy some bells and hide them under the straw in the cowshed. The location of the bell is well remembered, and it usually doesn't touch it when it walks around, but as soon as there is an abnormality, it will ring the bell to report to its owner.
After a while, Zhang Fu felt sleepy, and he had just closed his eyelids, but he heard another bell ringing outside, mixed with the sound of "moo" cows.
Could it be that Ada guy broke free? Zhang Fu jumped out of bed and rushed to the cowshed, where he saw Ada pulling Aman's horns outward, and Aman desperately used his four hooves to hold the ground, refusing to give in. Zhang Fu was furious, and he threw down Ada at once, seeing that he was going to subdue him again.
At this time, Aman seemed to be very frightened, and rushed out the door with a strange cry of "moo". Zhang Fusheng was afraid that Aman would lose something, so he didn't care about catching the thief, so he hurriedly chased after him. Fortunately, Aman didn't run too far, and Zhang Fu caught up with it, brushing its fur to calm it down. But when Zhang Fu came back with Aman, Ada was long gone, and there were only two broken ropes on the ground.
"Cheap that guy," Zhang Fu sighed, picked up the rope and looked at it, "I didn't expect him to really break the rope twice." ”
The days that followed were calm, Zhang Fu and Aman were one person and one cow, sunrise and sunset, and no one had a bad idea. Eight years have passed in the blink of an eye, and Aman is dying of old age and can no longer work in the fields. Zhang Fu secretly calculated, with the value that Aman has created over the years, he has almost paid off the 20,000 long-cherished debt with interest, and it seems that Aman's mission in this life has been completed and he can die right.
After a few more days, Aman's body became weaker and weaker, and there was only a little gossamer breath left, but it still refused to take its last breath. Zhang Fu was very heartbroken, he saw that Aman still had unfulfilled wishes, so he approached it and asked, "Aman, do you still have something on your mind?" ”
It took a long time for Aman to open his mouth and ask in a weak voice, "What is the market price of beef now?" ”
Zhang Fu told him truthfully: "Twenty yuan a catty." ”
Aman lay down, but still breathing stubbornly.
In this way, another month passed, and the price of beef became Aman's only concern, and as long as he had the strength to speak, he asked Zhang Fu this question. Zhang Fu gradually discovered that if the price of beef went up, Aman would be excited; If the price is reduced, Aman will be frustrated. He really couldn't understand why Aman cared about such a problem.
On this day, the price of beef rose to 25 yuan a catty, the highest peak in more than a month, and Zhang Fu intuitively thought that Aman would be happy about it. Sure enough, after hearing the news, Aman actually had the strength to sit up and said loudly: "Great, now I can go with peace of mind." When I die, please take me to Ada's disposal. ”
Zhang Fu was taken aback and couldn't help asking, "Why do you want to be cheap that guy?" You forgot that he was planning to steal you? ”
Of course I didn't forget, and it wasn't him who broke free, I broke it with my horns. If he hadn't been greedy to take me away, he wouldn't have alarmed you at all, and he could have easily escaped. ”
Aman paused and took a few breaths, looked at Zhang Fu with a surprised face, and said, "Do you think I came here in this life to pay off your debts?" In fact, I lost all your 20,000 in the middle of the night, but I still didn't give up, and I went to Ada to borrow usury with the last glimmer of hope. That guy's heart is so dark, he only gave me 3,000 yuan, and he asked me to pay back 20,000 yuan. Now that the price of beef has risen to this level, my body of meat plus the time I saved him once, should be able to cover the debt of 20,000 yuan, and I can be debt-free and light in the next life. ”
After speaking, Aman finally showed a smile on his face and slowly closed his eyes.
So there are some words, don't say them easily, think twice before you act, make promises, do what you say, a word you say casually may be the shackles that determine your fate,
In this world, kindness is the most difficult thing to pay off, and if you receive kindness, you must have a grass ring, and you will repay your kindness.
