There are some legends about "Tears of the Heroines of the Rivers and Lakes" - Yongle swept the north and the Wenqu star sued

The eighth time: the sad soul held the form to the heavenly court Li Congsheng saw that he could not hang himself, so he thought of going to the river to drown in the river, in order to die quickly, the next day he went to the river and chose the highest river cliff, ready to jump down at once so that he could drown and there was no reason to survive.

When he opened his eyes, he saw that he was rescued by an old man in his sixties and an eldest brother in his forties. When the old man and the eldest brother saw him wake up and open his eyes, the old man looked at him happily and said, "You finally woke up, just now you fell off the river cliff and scared me, I don't know what you were chased and jumped off?"

Li Congsheng said that he was not dead, so he said to the two: "Uncle, eldest brother, thank you for saving me from the water, but you don't know, what am I being chased by here? I don't want to live." ”

The old man was surprised: "Young man, how do you want to live well? I don't know what I can't think of? Do you have to take this road?"

Li Congsheng sighed, and told his uncle about his experience and the fact that he didn't want to live and wanted to commit suicide in the heavenly court to sue the emperor, and the old man was moved by Li Congsheng's experience and actions: "It turns out that there is such a thing, it's really unbelievable, then Liu Zhong I know, although he didn't kill so many ordinary people like Liu Sheng when he swept the North Slaughter Village in Yongle, but it is not a good thing." In the First Battle of Qingzhou, he killed countless rebels, but he didn't expect that after he was shot to death by Tang Sai'er's army in Qingzhou, he did evil in the underworld, what a wicked man. Hearing you say this, Shen Shi was always afraid of the sword that Xing Ruiyu killed him, and Liu Zhong must have been afraid of the arrow that killed him at that time. ”

Li Congsheng was inspired by what his husband said, and said: "Old man, you are right, in the past, I once heard that after Hou Yi was beaten to death by Bangmeng with peach wood, he became a ghost male and was afraid of peach wood, and since then peach wood has been said to ward off evil spirits and exorcise ghosts, and Liu Zhong must be afraid of that arrow now, but that arrow has passed for an unknown number of years, and now where can it be found? How can it be found again?"

The old man said: "At that time, I heard that after Liu Zhong was shot to death, even the arrows were transported back to Nanjing, and I heard that there were still a lot of arrows that killed him, and they must be scattered in many places in Nanjing. ”

Li Congsheng was very happy when he heard this, and hurriedly jumped up and said to the old man: "Thank you for the old man's advice." ”

As he spoke, he asked to get off the boat and go to Nanjing to look for arrows, but he had just set off and walked a few miles, and he suddenly thought in his heart: "Jiaodong is so far away from Nanjing, I have no money and no horses, how long will it take to go? Even if I come back, with these arrows in my hand, I still can't go to the underworld, so what's the use? Besides, after a long delay like this, Ruiyu and the elders have fallen into Liu Zhong's hands, won't this miss the time to save them? In such a long time, I'm afraid that Ruiyu and the elders will suffer accidents, it seems that I still committed suicide and went to Heaven to sue the emperor quickly, only in this way can I rescue Ruiyu's family and the elders as soon as possible. ”

Thinking of this, Li Congsheng said with tears in his eyes: "It seems that in this life, I can only stop Liu Zhong from saving Ruiyu's family by dying, since I can't hang myself and throw myself into the river, I can only go to buy poison and take medicine and die, only in this way can I sue Liu Zhong with the whole corpse." ”

As he spoke, he wiped away his tears and said, "Miss Ruiyu, I must save you, I said I would save you, I will stop Liu Zhong and these evil ghosts." ”

After speaking, he went to buy a pen and paper and arsenic, and after writing the form, he died of arsenic with tears, holding the pen in one hand and holding the form tightly in his hand with the other hand, and standing with hatred without falling.

When people saw him standing on the ground and dying, holding a pen in one hand and a few pages in the other, they recognized that this was Li Congsheng, a scholar who had been rescued by them several times a few days ago, but when they saw that he still hadn't saved him, they didn't cry and wept. Some of them look forward to it, some of the literate read it to others, and those who do not know it all burst into tears.

The old man who rescued Li Congsheng on the boat also came to watch when he heard about it, and he was also sad to cry when he saw it, so he came out to raise money and bury Li Congsheng with money and goods with those poor people who had been relieved by Li Congsheng, and copied a copy of the form in his hand and kept it, and since then, this story has been spread to the people.

Li Congsheng's soul left the yang world and went straight to the underworld to find Xing Ruiyu. When he went to the underworld, he heard that Aunt Liu said that Ruiyu and the elders had indeed been arrested by Liu Zhong a long time ago, and he knew that he had become a ghost, and the ghost body went to Liu Zhong to not only save Ruiyu, but also difficult to get out, so he had to go straight to heaven to sue the emperor.

His soul rushed up to the sky, only to see the vast sea of clouds, as far as the eye could see, but he didn't know where the heavenly court was, and he didn't know where he had to go to find the heavenly palace. He vaguely remembered the three words Nantianmen, and he thought that Nantianmen must be in the south, and he must go south, so he went south.

But he walked south for I don't know how many days, but he still saw a sea of clouds in front of him. In the boundless sea of clouds, there was still no shadow of Nantianmen, and he was anxious in his heart, fearing that something would happen to Ruiyu and the elders, so he shouted in pain in a hurry: "Nantianmen, since I am a Wenqu star, how can I not even find Nantianmen???????"
