According to legend, In the late Song Dynasty, there was a vicious criminal named Jiang Meng. He was eight feet tall and had a strong back and a bear-back. He was unruly in his work and only did what he thought was right. He even killed the imperial officials in the street, and the imperial court spent a lot of money to arrest him, but he never succeeded for many years.
Time flies in a flash, and gradually people have forgotten the character Jiang Meng. At this moment, the court suddenly issued a notice:
criminal Jiang Meng has been arrested and was beheaded in the street to serve as a warning to You.
At this time, the people were talking about this matter again. Logically speaking, Jiang Meng has been forgotten after escaping for so many years, and he just needs to continue hiding and not committing any trouble to spend the second half of his life safely, but why was he caught again? This has to be said back a year ago.
Jiang Meng, who had been on the road for a few days that day, was already hungry, so he planned to find a place to fill his stomach first. I don’t know how long I walked, and finally arrived at a county town. Jiang Meng casually found an inn and sat on the bench and slapped the table and shouted:
"The shopkeeper brought me all your best food and drinks. The old man is very hungry now."
Looking at the burly man in front of him, the shopkeeper hurriedly ordered and did not dare to neglect at all. I was afraid of making him unhappy.
Soon the food and drinks came on. Jiang Meng, who was so hungry, suddenly became energetic. Then a storm swept away the rest of the clouds and processed the food on the table and then burped.
After eating and drinking, Jiang Meng asked the shopkeeper to arrange a room for him, and then went upstairs and fell asleep.
Jiang Meng just fell asleep not long after he was suddenly awakened by a beating and scolding outside. Jiang Meng got up from the bed and was angry and prepared to go downstairs to teach the person who disturbed his dreams.
When I got downstairs, I found out that it was a little beggar who ran in secretly and took the leftover steamed buns from the customer. He was discovered by the shopkeeper and then grabbed and beaten and scolded. At this time, Jiang Meng said impatiently:
"What a quarrel! Isn't it just that I took a steamed bun for you? Why are you so old and you are still calculating with a little beggar? You can set him up a table to make him eat enough. After I settle the money for the meal, I will pay you together."
Seeing someone standing up for the little beggar, the shopkeeper could only be obedient, let alone Jiang Meng was not an easy-to-dispute person.
The next day, Jiang Meng woke up and planned to go to the street, but as soon as he left the inn gate, he saw the little beggar standing opposite him yesterday looking at him with anticipation.
Jiang Mengben didn't want to pay attention to him, so he turned around and left as if he didn't see him. But the little beggar followed not far away, making Jiang Meng feel very distorted. So he turned his head and scolded the little beggar:
"Get out, please give me a meal, are you still dependent on me? If you dare to follow me again, let you taste grandpa's fist."
After saying that, Jiang Meng clenched his fists and scared him.
The little beggar was scared by this and it turned out that he stopped following him, so Jiang Meng continued to wander around the street leisurely.
In the evening, Jiang Meng returned to the inn, but found that the little beggar was still opposite the inn. When he saw Jiang Meng coming back, his eyes looked straight at Jiang Meng and acted very pitiful.
So Jiang Meng waved his hand and signaled him to come over and ask for the reason.
The little beggar walked up to Jiang Meng and thrust, kneeling on the ground, looking at Jiang Meng with a firm look, and said:
"Master, please accept me as your disciple."
But Jiang Meng is used to being alone and doesn't want to bring a bottle of oil in the future. But then I thought that if I refused directly, this little beggar would definitely not leave. So Jiang Meng thought of a way to say to him:
"Since you want to worship me as your teacher, you have to put life and death aside. A few days ago, I passed by Heifengling and saw an Ganoderma lucidum . Because the terrain was dangerous and I hadn't eaten for a few days, I didn't pick it up. You just need to bring that Ganoderma lucidum and accept you as your disciple."
After Jiang Meng finished speaking, he looked at the little beggar in front of him. After thinking for a while, the little beggar stood up and lowered his head and left. Jiang Meng thought that this kid must be scared. Not to mention a little brat, even the local hunters dared to wander around the periphery. Because in addition to the dangerous terrain, he heard that there were wild animals in it. Many brave hunters had never come out after entering.
Jiang Meng, who had sent the little beggar, returned to the inn and fell asleep, throwing all the little beggar's affairs behind him.
The next day, Jiang Meng slept until early in the morning before going downstairs. He first ordered the shopkeeper to serve him some wine and food. Then he started to feast. While he was having a good time, he heard someone chatting at the next table. One of them said:
"Have you heard of it? This morning, a hunter went to hunt near Black Wind Ridge to find a pile of blood, with some fragments of clothes scattered beside him. I guess someone was taken away by wild beasts in the mountains. "
Jiang Meng felt something was wrong when he heard this, so he put down his bowl and chopsticks and ran towards Heifengling.
Soon he arrived at Heifengling, and Jiang Meng looked for the little beggar everywhere. But no trace was found until the depths of the forest.
At this moment, the grass in front suddenly moved, and a strong black bear jumped out from it.
Looking at the black bear in front of him, if an ordinary person was afraid, his legs would become weak or even faint, but Jiang Meng was not afraid at all, but pointed at the black bear with anger and cursed:
'It must be that you ate the little beggar, and today my grandfather asked you to eat it. "
After saying that, he rushed towards the black bear, and the black bear also roared and ran towards Jiang.
Suddenly, Jiang Meng turned around and jumped on the back of the black bear, and then his fist hit the black bear's nose, eyes and other weak parts like raindrops.
After a fight, the black bear was finally beaten away by Jiang Meng's desperate fighting style, and Jiang Meng was also scratched by the black bear.
Jiang Meng walked out of the forest and looked at the sky outside. Kong Xin was full of self-blame, but he didn't expect that a joke from him killed a boy.
When he was sad and was about to go home, a person came over on the path next to him. Jiang Meng looked closely and saw that it was a little beggar.
The little beggar in the distance also saw Jiang Meng, and ran over and looked at Jiang Meng with a puzzled look and said:
"Master, why are you here? ah! Why are you still injured? "
Jiang Meng looked at the little beggar with a simple look and said angrily:
"Stupid brat, I'm here to fight to avenge you, but you boy didn't go at all. "
But Jiang Meng said this, but he was very happy.
After returning to the inn, the little beggar was busy taking care of Jiang Meng, and Jiang Meng also saw the little beggar's sincerity. Although he didn't say it, he had already agreed to this apprentice in his heart.
From then on, the master and apprentice wandered around the world together.
One day, the master and apprentice passed a county town. A dilapidated notice was posted at the gate of the city, and it was Jiang Meng's wanted order. The little beggar looked over and took a look. After years of destruction, the wanted order was blurred, but the general content could still be seen clearly.
The little beggar asked in confusion:
"The master seems to be painting you on this wanted order. Say you killed the imperial officials. A reward of a large sum of money to arrest you. "
Jiang Meng picked up the little beggar and said:
"What? Are you scared?"
The little beggar broke free from Jiang Meng and said angrily:
"Who said I was afraid? I believe that the master will definitely not kill innocent people by chance. This person must be a bad person. ”
After saying that, he ran over and pulled off the wanted order and tore it to pieces in front of Jiang Meng.
Jiang Meng was also very moved when he looked at it. It seems that no one in this world has ever chosen to believe him unconditionally like a little beggar.
But I didn’t know that the scene of the little beggar just now had been targeted by a local thug.
After the master and apprentice entered the city, they found an inn, and then drove a room to the room, Jiang Meng planned to lie on the bed and rest. The little beggar ran out carefully to get Jiang Meng a basin of foot washing water. After washing Jiang Meng's feet, the little beggar asked him to rest and wanted to go out for a walk. Jiang Meng also nodded in agreement and told him not to play with it and come back early.
Time flies tonight, and Jiang Meng wakes up and wants to go downstairs to eat. But I found that the little beggar had not come back yet. Jiang Meng thought to himself that this kid would not be found stealing other people's things again.
So Jiang Meng put on his clothes and hurried downstairs to look for it.
I searched several streets in a row but found no trace of the little beggar. Later, he found someone on the street holding a bag of money while counting while walking. So he grabbed the man and asked if he had ever seen a little beggar.
The ruffian was frightened by Jiang Meng's momentum and said tremblingly:
"No, I haven't seen it before."
So Jiang Meng pushed him away and knocked on the door to inquire, but in the end he still found nothing.
Helpless Jiang Meng planned to turn around and go back to the inn, thinking whether it was the little beggar who had gone too far and got lost, so he came back late.
Just as he was about to arrive at the inn, he found more than a dozen officers and soldiers standing outside, and one of them was escorting the little beggar to wait at the door.
Jiang Meng knew that these people must be here to find him, but in order to save the little beggar, he walked directly towards the officers and soldiers without thinking much.
One of the officers and soldiers discovered Jiang Meng who was walking towards him and then loudly signaled to the people around him. Everyone directly aimed the weapons in their hands at Jiang Meng vigilantly.
Then one person walked out of the officers and soldiers. It was the local county magistrate. The man looked at Jiang Meng with a fat head and big ears and said, "I am Li Wei, I will capture the criminal Jiang Meng at the order of the court."
After saying that, all the officers and soldiers waved their hands and rushed towards Jiang Meng. Jiang Meng was not afraid at all, and raised his fists and beat the officers and soldiers at the miscellaneous fish.
In less than half a stick of incense, all the officers and soldiers were beaten to the ground and screamed in pain. Jiang Meng looked at the ground and walked towards the county magistrate.
The county magistrate was also scared by Jiang Meng's strength. The good guys usually have the best skills in the county government office and almost all of them were solved with one move.
So the county magistrate hurriedly took out a dagger from his arms and threatened Jiang Meng to surrender or he would have killed the little beggar. Seeing this, Jiang Meng stopped and let the officers and soldiers who had climbed up from the ground tie him up and take him away. After
, the county magistrate reported the news to the court, and Jiang Meng was also escorted to the capital. So the beginning scene came.
On the day of the execution, Jiang Meng, who was disheveled in his head, was taken to the execution platform by knife and axe , and there were many people talking in the audience.
At this time, the prison officer looked at the weather and pulled out the token and shouted majestically:
"Noon has arrived, kill!"
As the token landed, the knife and axeman also cut off Jiang Meng's head with one knife...
A few months later, a little beggar was tremblingly climbing above the cliff. Because there was a Ganoderma lucidum growing on the cliff, he promised someone to pick it and hand it over to him.
After unremitting efforts, the little beggar finally picked the Ganoderma lucidum, so he happily climbed down the cliff.
Just as the little beggar was about to climb to the bottom of the cliff, he suddenly slipped down, and at this moment a strong man stepped forward and caught the little beggar who was about to fall.
The strong man put down the little beggar and cursed:
"With your ability, how can you go around the world alone in the future? Do you have to ask the master to sacrifice your life to save me?"
The little beggar handed the Ganoderma lucidum to the strong man and said with a smile:
"I know the master, I will definitely learn from you and respect you in the future.I will be with you until the day you leave. "
The strong man touched the little beggar's head and turned around and walked out of the mountain.
Time back a few months ago...
Jiang Meng was escorted to the capital, and the prefect personally tried the case. During the interrogation, the prefect found that Jiang Meng was upright and did not speak or act like he could kill innocent evil people, so he planned to thoroughly investigate the matter again.
Because things were very big at that time, many people on the street saw what happened. So the prefect found out the reason.
The reason was that the official fell in love with the daughter of a local vendor, so the dog official relied on his rights to steal it in the street. Jiang Meng couldn't see it and stepped forward to stand up. After dealing with the constable around the dog official in a few seconds, he punched the dog official several times. Unexpectedly, the dog official was so indifferent that he was beaten on the ground and was directly beaten on the ground after several punches. It took a breath. It was not long before he died.
After the investigation, the prefect also admired Jiang Meng's chivalrous behavior. But then again, after all, he killed the imperial officials in the street. So many people also saw it. If Jiang Meng was released directly, it would be difficult to explain, and the imperial court had no place to put his face.
So the prefect came up with a plan. First, he went to the prison to find a death row prisoner of similar size to Jiang Meng, and dressed him up specifically to be undressed. It is difficult to identify and then let him replace Jiang Meng. Fortunately, no one remembers what Jiang Meng looks like after so many years, so the people and the court did not doubt it. The master and apprentice after
continued to wander around the world for heroism, but this time the hero who stood up for trouble is not Jiang Meng, it is not just Jiang Meng.
