There is a rich young man named Fang Muyun in Xiuning County, Huizhou. He has a handsome face and a talented face. He always attracts the affectionate eyes of young girls when he travels. However, this handsome young master had a very bad reputation in the local area because he liked women and had six beautiful concubines at the age of nineteen. Common people who like to gossip often talk about Fang Muyun's romantic affairs after dinner, talk about which of his concubines is beautiful, discuss whether his body can bear it, curse him for his cowardice, and envy him for his good fortune.

The romantic and handsome rich man

Fang Muyun raised a big dog. The dog was not only docile, but also intelligent and considerate. Fang Muyun loves this dog very much. Every time he eats, he always gives it his own delicacies and does not let it eat those miscellaneous things. Every time he falls asleep, he always lets it lie under his warm tent, never letting it eat. Let it sleep outside the house; every time you go out, you will take it with you and never let it leave you for a moment.

Once, Fang Muyun took his pet dog to visit Huangshan, and returned home after half a month. Before he even entered the house, a group of servants came over excitedly and said, "Master, we have bought a little beauty for you and temporarily placed her in the west wing. Please come and have a look." Is it what you want?"

When he learned that people catered to his own preferences, Fang Muyun first pretended to be angry and said, "You dare to take a concubine for me without my permission. How audacious!"

People Unexpectedly, Fang Muyun would suddenly turn against him, so everyone was frightened and did not dare to say anything. At this time, Fang Muyun changed the subject and said with a smile: "However, if that woman is really very beautiful, I will be rewarded heavily by this young master!" After hearing this sentence, people slowly breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly With a smile on his face, he said flatteringly: "Master, I guarantee your satisfaction." After saying that, the servants immediately led Fang Muyun to the west wing.

Sad Girl

Fang Muyun opened the door and saw a girl bowing her head and sobbing. The girl had a hibiscus face, willow-leaf eyebrows, eyes like stars, and lips like red pearls. She was really as beautiful as flowers and jade. In addition, her phoenix eyes were full of tears and she was crying like pear blossoms with rain, which made her look even more pitiful. This delicate and timid appearance can't help but cause ripples in the heart of even a long-time romantic like Fang Muyun.

Fang Muyun saw that the girl was full of sadness and crying, and asked quickly: "Little beauty, why are you crying so sadly? Do you dislike this place, or are the servants treating you badly?"

The girl wiped away her tears and tried her best to He calmed down a little and said with a cry: "Master, the little girl is the daughter of the farmer Chai Si. In addition to our father and daughter, there is also a five-year-old brother in the family. Originally, our family of three lived a happy life. There was a rogue named Li Qi who ran a casino in the village. A while ago, he pretended to be a good man and playfully lured my father into gambling, saying that gambling would make him rich. Unexpectedly, within two days, my father was in debt. He had a gambling debt of 300 taels. At this time, he threw away his usual good-natured pretense and viciously demanded that my father pay back the money immediately. Our family was not well off, how could we afford to pay back so much money? In desperation, My father could only ask him for a few months' grace, but he fell out on the spot and beat my father seriously with a few accomplices..." At this point, the girl stopped, as if she didn't want to think about the sadness again. past. Immediately afterwards, big tears fell down.

The bully committed crimes

After a long time, the girl continued with tears: "The next day, Li Qi and his accomplices came to my house to continue collecting debts. I knelt at their feet and begged for more grace. Unexpectedly, this grandson When the thieves saw me, they took me away without saying a word and wanted to sell me. The situation was urgent, so my five-year-old brother hurriedly ran over and hugged me, not wanting me to leave. When Li Qi saw this, he was furious. They lifted him up and threw him heavily on the stone mill. My brother's head was bleeding and he lost his breath soon. Then, these thieves took me to the market to sell him. My servants bought me for one hundred taels of silver, and my family still owes them two hundred taels.How could these ferocious and cruel thieves just give up? They will torture my father even more, and my father will definitely be tortured to death..."

At this point, the girl was so sad that she could not speak, and could only cry endlessly. After hearing the girl's tragic experience and looking at her extremely sad expression, Fang Muyun's eyes turned red and he thought in his heart: "This woman's situation is really pitiful. If I take her as my concubine, wouldn't I be fighting against those lawless villains?" Are you complicit?"

Thinking of this, Fang Muyun quickly prepared the silver and handed it to the crying girl. He comforted: "This is three hundred taels of silver. You can redeem your father with one hundred and fifty taels, and the rest will be left. Let’s consider the remaining half as compensation for household expenses. "

After saying that, Fang Muyun ordered people to help the girl onto the carriage and send her home.

After sending the girl home, Fang Muyun was filled with anger and resentment. He thought: "We must not let these evildoers continue. Lawless villains go unpunished. "So, he immediately rushed to the county government office to meet the county magistrate.

The young county magistrate

The 25-year-old county magistrate Zhao Liangcai was Fang Muyun's close friend. The two had similar spirits and often visited Fireworks Willow Alley together. When Zhao Liangcai saw his friend coming angrily, he hurriedly asked why. Fang Muyun said: "There is a group of unruly people under your rule who are rampant in lawlessness, oppressing good people, and doing all kinds of evil. I am indignant about this. "

Fang Muyunliang and Li Qi's gang's evil deeds in persecuting the Chai family were explained to Zhao Liangcai one by one. After hearing this, Zhao Liangcai was also very angry and cursed: "These evil thieves are really lawless!" After saying that, he immediately ordered the Yamen to general. Li Qi and his gang were arrested and Chai Si was summoned to court. After the people involved in the case arrived, Zhao Liangcai immediately asked Li Qi to confront Chai Si. , especially when he learned that the county magistrate already knew the entire truth of the matter, he could only plead guilty on the spot. The county magistrate sentenced Li Qi to death in accordance with the law, and his accomplices were sentenced to exile.

After punishing the bully

, Zhao Liangcai withdrew. He praised Fang Muyun and said, "Brother Fang, I originally thought you were just a wanderer. Until today, I didn't know that you are a righteous man who sees injustice on the road. You have accumulated so much evil, and you will definitely be rewarded in the future!"

The next day, the Chai family came to thank them, saying that they would tie a grass ring in this life to repay their kindness. Fang Muyun said that this was just a small matter. Don't keep it in mind.

Half a month later, when Fang Muyun was traveling through a mountain with his dog, he accidentally got lost after walking like a headless fly for a long time. , he found an ancient temple in the dense forest, and hurriedly walked up and knocked on the door, wanting to stay here for a night.

After a while, a kind-hearted old monk opened the door and exchanged a few words with Fang Muyun. He took him into the mountain gate. However, when the old monk saw the dog, his expression immediately changed. He first counted his fingers, then immediately pulled Fang Muyun aside and asked, "Where did the layman get this dog?" Canine? "

dog

Fang Muyun answered truthfully: "I was raised since childhood.

The old monk sighed and said, "Why do lay people raise this beast?" Alas, there is really no way to escape this injustice. "

Fang Muyun was extremely shocked when he heard this. He noticed that there was something wrong in the old monk's words and hurriedly asked: "I am a vulgar person. I don't know what this injustice in my past life is. Please clarify it, Master. "

After the old monk glanced at the dog in the distance, he hurriedly pulled Fang Muyun into the monk's room. After closing the door tightly, he said to Fang Muyun: "This dog and the layman had a deep hatred in the previous life. It will kill you in a month. "

Fang Muyun was horrified and asked hurriedly: "What happened between me and this dog in the previous life, so that it still wants to seek revenge on me after reincarnation? "

The old monk sighed and said, "Oh, there is great grievance in this. In its first two lives, this dog was a filial and chaste woman named Huang Sanfeng. When Huang Sanfeng was seventeen years old, his father, who had been widowed for many years, married a woman named Luo as his second wife. Luo Shi was dissolute and vicious by nature, and he often had secret meetings with men before getting married.After getting married, Luo Shi could not forget his old lover and wanted to seize the family property, so she poisoned her husband. Afterwards, Luo went to the county government to file a complaint, saying that Huang Sanfeng had an affair with a rogue in the market, and that she was aware of the adultery. Huang Sanfeng wanted to poison her to hide her from others, but unexpectedly, she poisoned her own father. "

A loyal woman

Hearing this, Fang Muyun said: "This Luo Shi is really hateful. Was I this shameless woman in my previous life?

The old monk shook his head and said, "No, layman, in your previous life, you were the county magistrate who tried the case." The county magistrate was stupid and incompetent and believed Luo's lies without careful investigation. He arrested Huang Sanfeng in court and sentenced her to death without allowing her to plead. It's pitiful that a filial and chaste woman died like this with the crime of being unfilial and unchaste. The matter was also recorded in the county annals. Her stigma will not only be impossible to wash away, but will also be passed down for a long time. "

Fang Muyun felt ashamed after hearing this.

Hear the old monk continue: "After Huang Sanfeng's soul returned to the underworld, she complained to the King of Hell. The King of Hell took pity on her and allowed her to take revenge in the future. In her previous life, she was reincarnated as a tiger, and while Luo was going up the mountain to offer incense, she bit this wanton and vicious woman to death. In this life, she will be reincarnated as this dog and let you raise it with your own hands. Then on the night of your twentieth birthday, tear you into pieces.

Fang Muyun was horrified and asked: "Since it turned into a tiger, why didn't it kill me in my previous life?" Why do debts owed in previous lives have to be repaid by future generations? "

The incompetent county magistrate

old monk said: "Before Luo Shi was bitten to death, you contracted an illness and died in your previous life. Huang Sanfeng failed to take revenge with his own hands. He was extremely unwilling and vowed to let future generations repay the blood debt. If you are a gentleman of high moral character, you will be protected by God and Huang Sanfeng cannot harm you. However, you have been fond of women since you were a child and have repeatedly done some inappropriate things. You have lost the protection of God and given Huang Sanfeng an opportunity. . "

Fang Muyun was so frightened that his liver and gallbladder split. He hurriedly knelt on the ground, worshiped the old monk, and asked for a way to escape.

The old monk sighed: "Bulk, originally you could not escape death. However, you rescued a poor father and daughter half a month ago and punished a group of evildoers. You have accumulated merit, and God is willing to give you a chance to escape. "

Fang Muyun heard the words and breathed a long sigh of relief and asked: "Master, what should I do?"

Young Master and the Old Monk

The old monk said earnestly: "Bulk, after you go home, you will go about your daily routine. The clothes he wears are bundled into a human shape. On the night of your twentieth birthday, after the dog is asleep, you put those clothes under the quilt and sneak away quietly. Then, you just let it run wild and ignore it. After the dog knows that he cannot take revenge, he will definitely commit suicide in anger. After it dies, you hang its body in a tree in the mountains and let it decay naturally. This way, you can get away with it. Remember, don't make any mistakes. "

Fang Muyun clasped his hands together and expressed his heartfelt thanks to the old monk. After returning home, he acted according to the old monk's instructions. The big dog couldn't find Fang Muyun and was extremely angry. It tore the tent, quilt and clothes After being smashed into pieces, he hit the wall and committed suicide.

Looking at the messy bedroom and the big dog's body, Fang Muyun was convinced that what the old monk said was true. He followed the old monk's instructions and hung the dog's body on a tree in the mountains. Months later, he went to the mountains to check and found that the dog's flesh had long since rotted away, leaving only a withered skeleton.

Go to the ancient temple

Fang Muyun, who had escaped, immediately went to the ancient temple to pay tribute to the old monk who saved his life. Thank you. The old monk said: "It is really gratifying that the layman followed the old monk's instructions and made proper arrangements to escape the disaster. However, Huang Sanfeng still refused to give up, and her resentment turned into a big snake. The snake learned that you were visiting Han Temple and followed you looking for your scent. It will arrive in an hour, vowing to eat you alive. What can we do in this situation?"

Fang Muyun's face turned pale when he heard this, his legs kept shaking, and he begged the old monk to save his life.The old monk said, "Don't worry, layman. Since I have a predestined relationship with the layman, I will help the layman completely get rid of the disaster."

After saying that, the old monk asked Fang Muyun to bend down and lie down in a big urn. Then, he moved an identical large urn to cover it, and pasted eighteen yellow talismans on the joints of the two urns.

An hour later, a giant snake several feet long and as thick as a beam crawled into the temple and ran straight towards the big urn. It wound around several times, twisting the big urn until it vibrated. However, the big urn was still tightly closed, and no matter how hard it tried, it remained motionless.

Giant Snake

The snake knew that it still could not take revenge. It was so angry that its huge body exploded into dozens of pieces and lost its life.

After confirming that the disaster was over, the old monk hurriedly opened the big urn. Fang Muyun looked at the remains of the big snake and saluted the old monk. The old monk helped him up and said: "Bulk, your grievances have been completely removed. From now on, you will no longer be entangled by the grievance ghost. However, this grievance ghost already knows that it is Lao Na who is causing trouble, and will definitely come to harass Lao Na."

Fang Muyun asked with concern: "Master, what should we do?"

The old monk replied: "Folks, don't worry, the ghost of injustice can't do anything to me."

Fang Muyun felt relieved after hearing what the old monk said. He gave the old monk three hundred taels of silver as a reward, but the old monk refused. Before leaving, the old monk gave a message: "It is not the right way for a layman to be too greedy for beauty. From now on, he should try his best to restrain his mind and avoid girls. Otherwise, he may lose his family and property in the future."

Fang Muyun clasped his hands together and expressed his willingness. Follow the instructions.

Leaving the temple

Later, Fang Muyun came to this ancient temple to visit the old monk. However, the old monk has disappeared.

After that, Fang Muyun followed the old monk's teachings and cultivated his moral integrity. He lived to be ninety years old without any illness or disaster, and died in his sleep.

Postscript: When you do evil, you are haunted by resentment, but when you do good, your injustice is resolved. In life, one should abandon evil and promote good.
