There is a businessman in the south named Wan Jia, who often travels to Shandong, Hubei, Henan and other places, and made a fortune selling hibiscus ointment . At that time, the status of businessmen was low. Wan Jia made a lot of money, so he donated money to buy an official position and became a ninth-grade official. However, even after becoming an official, Wan Jia did not stop doing business.
Wanjia's wife is Yong's . She is young and beautiful, and often wears heavy makeup. Wanjia dotes on her very much.
After working as a ninth-grade official for a period of time, Wan Jia found that he was often manipulated by others, could not get money and was delayed in making money. In anger, he resigned and concentrated on business.
The business grew bigger and bigger, and Wanjia made a lot of money. He gradually lost interest in the Yong family, and began to frequent brothels and tile houses to hook up with women. Therefore, he rarely came back at night. Yong family was resentful, but Not spoken out.
One night, Mr. Yong looked at himself in the mirror under the lamp at home, feeling sorry for himself. Suddenly, he saw a man's figure behind him. He thought it was his husband who had returned and looked back happily. It turned out that the man was not her husband, but a handsome young man. She had never seen such a handsome young man before, so she couldn't help but look at him a few more times.
Before Yong could ask questions, the boy was already sitting close to her, touching her and saying: "I am Shiro from 五通神 (the legendary god, there are five people in total, they are five brothers) , Seeing that you are lonely, I came here to accompany you. I don’t know if you are as infatuated as me?"
Yongshi wanted to push him away, but she smelled a scent and Shiro had already started to move his hands, and she immediately lost it. Resistance, let Shiro do whatever he wants.
Afterwards, Yongshi was very satisfied, and Shiro slept with her until almost dawn. At that time, the Yong family had been conquered and felt that no man in the world was as good as Shiro.
From then on, Shiro came every night and left before dawn. Every time he came, he would drink and go to bed when he was drunk. After sleeping, he and Yong would have fun. Yong was suspicious of him at first, but later he felt that because he was so powerful every day, he might really be a god.
Once, Wanjia came back by chance and saw Shiro. He was furious, pulled out the knife on the wall, and slashed at Shiro. Shiro turned into white light and escaped through the window.
Wan Jia asked Yong who was that person, but Yong said that he didn't see anything, and asked Wan Jia, if there was a man, how could he escape with the doors and windows closed? Wan Jia was confused by the question and thought he was dazzled. However, when he tried to court Yong again, he was left out. Yong didn't say anything to him, and he didn't even smile.
The next night, Shiro came again.
Yongshi cried and said: "I thought we could always be so happy, but I didn't expect that it would end now."
Shiro asked her what was going on, and Yongshi said: "You said you were a god, why are you so scared? How about a mortal?"
Shiro said: "That's not the case. The reason why humans are different from animals is because they have a conscience. It was wrong for me to have an affair with you. Do I still want to insult your husband? Even humans can't do it, let alone a god? "
At this time, Wan Jia suddenly burst in with a knife. Shiro was not afraid at all, smiled and prepared to leave. At this time, he found that there were many people at the door, all holding knives, guns, swords, halberds, bows and arrows. Obviously, Wanjia came prepared. It turned out that he didn't believe Yong at all last night, so he pretended to be confused and actually laid an ambush in advance.
When Shiro saw it, he pulled Yongshi and started crying. He knelt on the ground and kowtowed, expressing his willingness to disappear and never come back again.
How can Wan Jia endure such a tone? He didn't say anything, just slashed Shiro with his sword. Although Shiro didn't get up, he already knew it, but he didn't hide and let Wan Jia's knife slash at him. As a result, the knife struck Shiro's back like a broken drum skin; the knife struck Shiro's head like a wood.
When people outside saw it, they all rushed in to help Wan Jia.
When Shiro saw it, he became a little anxious. He took out the money from his arms and threw it out. When everyone saw it, they all knelt down to pick up the money. Shiro took the opportunity to run out.Wan Jia stopped everyone and picked up all the money himself. He had more than a hundred taels of silver. He gave a dozen taels to everyone and kept the rest for his own use.
A month passed. Yongshi fell ill and felt dizzy every day without saying a word.
In the evening, Mr. Yong suddenly got up, put on bright makeup, and said, "Silang is here to marry me."
Wan Jia was furious and said: "Since he is a god, why would he forcefully marry you, a married woman? Besides, last time he cried and kowtowed, and said he would never come again, how could he marry you? ?"
Mr. Yong smiled and said, "Hehe, you are so stupid. Why do you think Shiro gave away the money that day? Was he afraid of you? It was the money he bought me. You have also accepted the money, indicating that you are willing to sell me to him! Also, let me tell you, Shiro will not come if he doesn’t want to, and he will send someone to pick me up this time!"
After finishing speaking, , Yongshi smiled evilly and disappeared immediately!
At this time, Wanjia heard the sound of gongs and drums in the air, the sound of horses neighing, and people leading the way, mumbling words, but couldn't understand what they were... He quickly went out to take a look, and found that there were other things in the air. There was nothing but the moon and a few stars.
At this time, people from the neighbors also came out and looked at the sky.
Wan Jia asked angrily: "What are you doing when you stay up in the middle of the night and come out to look at the sky? Is it possible that there are still silver copper plates in the sky?"
Someone said: "No, we heard a sound, like Someone has a bride, so I came out to take a look."
Another person said: "There are really copper coins in the sky!"
Everyone squatted down to pick up the money, and some took off their clothes and opened their clothes to receive the coins. When Wan Jia saw it, money was really scattered from the sky. They were all copper coins and fell in a large area on the ground.
Wan Jia suddenly clapped and laughed, saying: "Okay, okay, I want to do something big. Zhuojing (a modest name for his wife) is already a burden. You can take her away, and I can free my hands and do big things in the future." It's over!"
Before dawn, Wan Jia woke up the servants and maids at home, paid them severance pay and travel expenses, and sent them home.
Later, Wanjia traveled around with money. Later, he met a Taoist priest who taught him how to use golden needles, locust horns and pig skins. When he used it in business, the effect was very good. Wan Jia earned tens of thousands of taels of silver.
There was a magistrate in Hanzhong who had a tricky and eccentric personality. After Wanjia fell in love with him, he became good at observing words and emotions, so he became very interested in knowing the magistrate.
If someone offends the prefect and the prefect doesn’t say anything, Wan Jia will make things difficult for him and insult him; if someone flatters the prefect, the prefect still won’t say anything, but Wan Jia will get close to that person and hint him to give more money, like It's like a middleman working in it. If the prefect makes a mistake, Wan Jia will also blame him.
The prefect admired Wanjia very much, and always said: "I have lived a long life in vain. I really regret not getting to know Wanjia earlier!"
The prefect was also lustful. He once gave Wanjia a thousand taels of silver to ask Wanjia to help him. Buy yourself a beautiful concubine. Wan Jia embezzled half of the money and used 500 taels of silver to buy a beautiful girl from a poor family who was only sixteen years old.
Just when he was about to dedicate the girl to the prefect, he heard that the prefect's greed for money was exposed, so he refused to dedicate the girl to him. After waiting for a while, it turns out that the prefect's house was ransacked.
Wan Jia was overjoyed and took possession of the girl and made her his concubine. This concubine's name is Chunhua. Chunhua became the first concubine, but not the last.
Wan Jia has a friend named Wang Qi who likes antiques and often collects scraps of copper, jade, ancient books and paintings. Wan Jia knew that everyone who plays antiques has money, so she fawned over them in every way.
Sometimes, Wan Jia would help Wang Qi search for antiques. If he got a treasure, he would buy it with money and tell Wang Qi at half the price. Wang Qi also knows the goods and the real price, so he also knows Wan Jia's intentions, so he trusts him very much.
Later, Wang Qi was going on a long trip and asked Wanjia to take care of his daughter Xia Yun. He also said: "My daughter is already seventeen years old. If I don't come back in three years, brother, please help me find a good in-law for her." Let her get married."
Wan Jia knew that Xia Yun was very beautiful, so she pretended to agree. As soon as Wang Qi left, he said that he had found a good husband and wanted to marry Xia Yun off.
Xia Yun was puzzled, but he still agreed. As a result, during the wedding ceremony, , Xia Yun discovered that the groom was Wan Jia. She said: "I suspected it was you early on, but I didn't expect it to be true! My father regards you as a good friend, and I regard you as my uncle, but I didn’t expect that you are greedy for my body! "
Wan Jia saw that Xia Yun was not angry, and laughed loudly and said, "I am a Jia'er and you are a Jia'er. Wouldn't it be nice for us to have children together? "
Xia Yun saw that the matter was done, so he could only agree. In this way, Xia Yun became Wanjia's second concubine.
One day, Wanjia took a boat, and the boatman was Mr. Jiao, going to Poyang. Wanjia Jia likes to drink, and would drag Mr. Jiao with him every time he drinks. After eating a few times, Mr. Jiao felt embarrassed and wanted to return the invitation, but Wan Jia disagreed.
Sometimes, Mr. Jiao would bring fish, shrimps and other goods. Others sent it to make some small money. Ordinarily, Wanjia hired his ship, so he couldn't do this. However, Wanjia never cared about it and would even buy his goods at a high price.
Wanjia did this out of kindness. Instead, he got close to her because he knew that Mr. Jiao's daughter was rowing in the stern and she was very beautiful.
After getting to know each other, Wan Jia deliberately asked Mr. Jiao: "Why is your wife so beautiful and not married?" "
Mr. Jiao said: "This little girl has always been lazy and refused to marry a trend-setter (referring to the son of the Shuishui family). She wanted to marry those big businessmen and officials, but she couldn't get it, so she quickly married her. I’m twenty years old and I’m not married yet!
Wan Jia was overjoyed and said: "I am a big businessman . I have been an official before, but I just thought it was a waste of money, so I quit. Now I have a lot of money and no wives. I don't know if I can be worthy of it." Where is Ling Qianjin?
Mr. Jiao didn't believe it and said, "I know you are Wan Kezhu (Wan Jia, also known as Wan Kezhu) and a big businessman, but you are already forty years old. Who would believe you if you say that you have never married or had any concubines?" ? "
Wan Jia swore to heaven that he really would not marry again after his wife died. Now, Mr. Jiao believed it and married his daughter Qiuyue to him.
However, three days after the marriage, Mr. Jiao found out Wan Jia's wife was indeed gone, but he had two concubines. Master Jiao was furious and went to the government to accuse Wan Jia of cheating on his daughter. However, Qiu Yue stopped her father and said, "Now that the matter is over, what else can be done." What to do? "
When Wan Jia saw this, he took the opportunity to kneel down and ask his father-in-law to punish him. He kept kowtowing until his head was broken. Master Jiao sighed and left.
In this way, Qiuyue became Wan Jia's third concubine.
Not long after, Wan Jia went to Chuzhou to do business, and when she had nothing to do, she went to a brothel. The old madam was called Zhang Meiniang, who was not yet thirty years old, but her charm was still there. Zhang Meiniang had a daughter (a woman from the brothel) named Ting. Ting, she was very beautiful, and she was only eighteen years old.
Wan Jia often stayed with Tingting and gave her a lot of money. The two of them had a private life.
When Zhang Meiniang found out, she was a little jealous and envious, so she said: " If you marry Tingting, you have to give her a lot of money, and you have to give me a lot of money to redeem her. This will cost you a lot of money, right? Why don't you marry me too? In that case, the money will still be yours, and so will our mother and daughter. "
Wan Jia was a little excited and said: "Although you are not biological mother and daughter, you are still mother and daughter in name. If I marry you mother and daughter, I am afraid that I will be reviled by everyone in the world, right? Are there any such examples in ancient times? "
Zhang Meiniang made up historical legends and told him that there were such examples. So Wanjia married Zhang Meiniang and Tingting. As a result, after they got married, the mother and daughter found out that Wanjia already had three concubines. The two were older. It was noisy, but Wanjia gave them a lot of money and bought a lot of clothes and jewelry to coax them. They were already contented with being brothel girls.
That's it, Wanjia suddenly got two more concubines. .
According to the previous example, Wanjia changed Zhang Meiniang's name to Dongsong and Tingting to Four Seasons. From then on, Wanjia played happily in the room with Chunhua, Xia Yun, Qiuyue, Dongsong and Four Seasons. .Under Wan Jia's half-majestic, half-coaxing training, these five women got along well with each other and never became jealous.
One day, Wan Jia became interested and invited the painter He Liulai to draw portraits of the five concubines. He also asked him to draw the pavilions, garden rockeries, etc. at home.
Finally, Wan Jia asked He Liu to draw a collection of five concubines in one picture. They were either fishing, drinking, chatting, or playing chess, and Wan Jia deliberately dressed as a servant. clothes, making tea and serving the five of them. This picture is called "Five Beautiful Pictures".
He He showed his true skills and painted for seven days. After finishing the painting, he almost collapsed. After Wan Jia and Wu Meiren saw it, they were very satisfied and it was so lifelike.
He Liu originally thought that Wanjia would give him a lot of money, and the Five Beauties would also reward him with money. As a result, the Five Beauties didn't give him any money, and Wanjia only gave him a copper plate, which was very humiliating! He Liu was furious and said he was going to sue Wan Jia.
Wan Jia smiled and said: "People from the government have taken my money, you go and sue! When the time comes, I will say a few words, I am afraid that your hands will be useless, your legs will be broken, and even the guy who eats will be I can't keep it!"
He Liu dared not speak out, and indeed he did not dare to file a complaint. He just went to Wutong Temple to pray.
A few days later, Wanjia went home after drinking at night. The servant held the lamp. When he was halfway through the yard, the servant went back. This was Wanjia's rule. He was afraid that the servants and concubines would mess around, so he didn't allow the servants to go inside. He only allowed the servants to go halfway into the courtyard, and then there would be maids and old women.
After arriving in the inner courtyard, I heard five beauties laughing in the room, and the lights were lit in the room. There seems to be someone in Shiki's room, and it's a man!
Wan Jia waved her hand and the maid left, and she quietly approached. When she looked inside the room, she saw a man in fox fur, leaning against Si Ji, wiping her oil off. Si Ji let him touch her, smiling crazily. Several mothers-in-law and maids were watching from the side, as if they were used to such things.
Wan Jia was furious, rushed into the room and yelled.
The man turned around, and Wan Jia was shocked to see that the man was just like herself!
Wan Jiazheng was wondering when the man spoke and said: "Hey, what kind of monster are you? How dare you turn into me? Why are you here to confuse the four seasons? My married wife has been five years old. Tongshen killed me, now you want to take away my concubine?"
said, the man drew the knife and pointed it at Wan Jia. When Si Ji heard this, he also took the scissors and pointed it at Wan Jia.
After looking at it, Wan Jia shouted: "Siji, don't believe him. Although he and I look the same, our clothes are different. I am wearing a sheep fur, and he is wearing a fox fur!"
As soon as he finished speaking, That man's body has changed, the fox fur has turned into a sheep fur, and on Wan Jia's body, the sheep fur has turned into a fox fur. As a result, everyone believed that Wan Jia was a monster and came to beat Wan Jia with brooms and mops. The man also came over and kicked Wanjia violently. Even Siji took the opportunity to kick Wanjia.
Wan Jia couldn't stop him and couldn't explain, so he had to run away and came to Dongsong's room.
Unexpectedly, there was also a man in fox fur here, holding a pine tree and drinking wine with each other. As soon as he saw Wan Jia coming in, the man turned around, and he was like Wan Jia.
The man looked at Wan Jia and said, "Hey, what kind of monster are you? How dare you turn into me? Why are you here? Are you trying to confuse Dongsong? My married wife was killed by the Wutong God. Now, are you coming to take away my concubine?" After
finished speaking, the man also pulled out the knife and pointed it at Wan Jia.
Wan Jia was confused, and when she was worried, she quickly said: "Dongsong, don't believe him. Although he and I look the same, our clothes are different. I'm wearing a sheep... No, I'm serious, I'm wearing a fox fur. !"
The man snorted and said, "Yes, the real person is wearing a sheep fur. Look, what are you wearing?"
Wan Jia looked down and saw that the fox fur on her body had turned into a mink fur!
Dongsong took a look and called his maid and mother-in-law, then took a bench and a broom and beat Wanjia hard. Wan Jia was beaten severely again and could only continue running away.
He ran to Xia Yun's room. This time he learned his lesson and did not rush in and peek outside.As expected, there was another person inside, wearing a wolf fur just like him. He was holding Xia Yun in his arms and practicing calligraphy in front of the table.
After hearing the noise outside, the man pretended to be surprised and said: "Don't be afraid, he must be the God of Five Powers. I heard that he can change and become exactly like others. Let's make an appointment first. I will wear a wolf fur coat." , if someone turns into me, just look at his clothes. If it's not a wolf fur, then it's the Wutong God. Don't be afraid, trick him in, and then I'll cut off his head with a sharp sword. It's safe, can you help me?" After
finished speaking, Xia Yun nodded and gave him the sword on the bedside. When Wan Jia saw it, she was so frightened that she stuck out her tongue and ran directly to Qiuyue's room instead of going in.
Arriving at Qiuyue's room, there were still people inside like Wan Jia, wearing lynx fur, holding Qiuyue, and eating chestnuts.
When he saw Wan Jia coming, the man laughed and said, "Who are you? How dare you come to my room?"
Then he seemed to suddenly realize and said, "Yes, yes, you will kill me if you come here." My wife's five-power god? Why did you become like me again? Are you here to deceive Qiuyue? You've gone too far. I can't bear it. Come on, I'll burn you with a hunting net! ! "
Qiuyue went to get the hunting net and wanted to deal with Wan Jia.
Wan Jia almost cried and said: "Qiuyue, why are you so confused? I am your husband! Look at my clothes, I am wearing a mink fur! He is wearing a lynx fur!"
The man laughed loudly and said, "Yes, the real person is wearing mink fur, Qiuyue, look carefully."
Qiuyue saw that Wanjia was wearing lynx fur, and immediately wanted to deal with Wanjia again. Wanjia took a look The clothes on my body were miserable, so I could only keep running.
When I first arrived at the Chunhua House, I could only hear the sound of sharpening knives.
Chunhua said in it: "I can't compare with your wife. She can be defiled by the Wutong God, but I can't. Even if I die, I won't let the Wutong God get me! If he dares to become yours If you come to confuse me, I will kill him with one knife!"
Wan Jia took a peek and saw someone lying on the bed, wearing a squirrel fur just like him, smoking. The man smiled and said: "Don't be afraid of him. I once beat him up and chopped his back and head with a knife. I noticed that he likes to wear lynx fur. If you see him, catch him. That's it!"
Wan Jia was furious and rushed in and said, "Chun Hua, the person on your bed is a monster, he is the God of Five Powers, and I am the real Wan Jia!"
Unexpectedly, Chun Hua was very angry and cursed: "Wan Jia! Jia once served as a ninth-level official, how could the Five-Tong God look like him? I think you are a fake wearing a lynx fur!"
The man on the bed didn't even get up, but continued to smoke and said, "If I were a fifth-level person, you would be a fake! Tongshen, why bother pretending to be Wan Jia like you? Besides, I have been with Chunhua, how can I be fake? I understand, aren’t you just greedy for money? I have a lot of money, and you want me to give it to you? "That's right, why do you have to pretend to be me?" When Chunhua heard this, she stabbed Wan Jia with a knife, but Wan Jia dodged and ran out again. After
came out, he looked at himself and found that he was still wearing a sheep fur. It seems that just now it was all a deception trick used by the God of Five Powers. No wonder the five beauties were deceived by him.
The next day, Wanjia went to the yard to eavesdrop, and as expected, the five beauties were all talking.
Some beauties said: "Don't go out. Those four sisters have been occupied and defiled by the God of Five Tongs. If you go out again and be harmed by the God of Five Tongs, what will I do? Just stay, and the two of us will be happy. Isn't it great?"
Some beauties said: "You can't even recognize your own husband, and let the Wutong God come to defile it. Those four sisters are really stupid!"
Others are not warning the old woman. and the maids, telling them not to talk nonsense, lest they offend the five-tong gods of other families.
Dongsong lay on her "husband", smiled and cursed: "How is it? Even Tingting is possessed by the Wutong God, and she is still so willing. I am the only one who treats you well, right?"
Then an obscene sound came from , very bold.
Wan Jiaxin was tired. After coming out, she lay on her back in the yard and started smoking.
At this time, a girl came over, touched Wanjia's cigarette pole, and said with a smile: "I am destined to you, so I recommended myself. I hope you can accept me."
Wanjia saw that the door was closed, but she could actually directly When he came in, he was so frightened that he hit the girl with a cigarette pole.
A voice immediately came from the air: "Wan Jia, you are so presumptuous! I, Kunzhong, are all Wutong gods, and I am having fun with your concubine. I see you are lonely here. Let me accompany you, why are you like this? To her?"
Wan Jia was a little scared, but still said boldly: "You are gods, you should know the truth. Why did you steal my wife before and now take my concubine?"
laughed alone? , said: "You have been wearing the green turban for so long, and you still don't know who the real adulterer is? That Shiro before was not the real Wutong Shen, but our brothers are."
Wan Jia didn't believe it, and told the story of that day said.
The God of Five Powers smiled and said: "If he is really the God of Five Powers, will he be afraid that there are so many of you, and will he be afraid that everyone will chop him down? If you don't believe it, you can try to chop me with a knife. Not to mention you alone, it will cost you a thousand." Ten thousand people can attack me together, and I won’t be hurt, let alone scared!”
Wan Jia suddenly understood and immediately kowtowed and begged for forgiveness.
The God of Wutong said again: "Wanjia, if you can support us, we will not care about this, and we will bless you and make you rich!"
After hearing this, Wanjia worshiped the God of Wutong every day. Sure enough, his business was getting better and better and he made a lot of money, but the five concubines were all occupied by those five people, and Wan Jia was left out in the cold.
One night, Wanjia had a dream. In the dream, the Yong family came. She was wearing pearls on her head, wearing brocade clothes, and many guards behind her.
Master Yong took Wan Jia's hand and cried, "Ms. sir, you are so pitiful! The Shiro I married is the real God of Five Powers. His four brothers were killed by Guo Zhenren because of their greed. He is the only one left. However, he is still in charge of the southeast area, commanding thousands of wandering souls, and his soldiers are like clouds. The five people who occupied your concubine are fake Wutong gods. When I learned about this, I told Shiro. Yes, he said that he is willing to help you, which can be regarded as atonement. Tomorrow, Shiro will bring his troops to get rid of those five fake Wutong gods. You should stay away for a while at night to avoid getting hurt."
Wan Jia glanced at Yongshi. , and wanted to be gentle with her, but Yongshi refused.
In the evening, Wanjia went to her neighbor's house and listened attentively.
Soon, the sound of swords and halberds clashing, the sound of Shiro screaming, the sound of five concubines crying, and the sound of maidservants running around came from the yard... Then I heard Shiro summoning his subordinates and saying: "They are pretending to be Wutong gods and defiling other people's concubines. It's so shameless. If anyone can catch them, I will reward you heavily!"
Soon, Shiro said: "Oh, why did one escape? You go back and report to the wife, and we will continue to arrest the other one."
Wan Jia went to the yard and saw four big snakes with their heads cut off. It seemed that these four big snakes were pretending to be the Five Gods and humiliating Wan Jia's concubine. Looking at those concubines, each of them looked haggard, as if their bodies had been hollowed out, and they were still crying that their husbands were dead!
Wan Jia suddenly thought of the money at home, and immediately went to look in the box. Sure enough, the money was basically gone. The family has hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, but now there is less than a thousand taels left.
Wan Jia was very frustrated and didn't know what to do for a while.
At this moment, a huge monster suddenly flew into the air. His hairy hands were as big as cattail leaf fans. The monster landed in front of Wan Jia, grabbed Wan Jia's neck, and cursed: "Although our brothers pretended to be five-tong gods and defiled your concubine, you deserved it. Look at which of your five beauties is Did you marry me seriously? You either lied, coaxed, or had no ethics. How dare you, the evil businessman, to find someone to deal with us? I will avenge my brothers today!" After
said this, the monster said With the other hand, he slapped Wan Jia hard. Wan Jiafan screamed and died.
The monster roared, then turned into a big snake, flew into the air and disappeared. The five beauties were frightened when they saw it. After dividing Wanjia's money, they went their separate ways.
