1.Diet
During the Qianlong period, a heavy snow suddenly fell on Yandang Mountain. In the morning, Shen Decai opened the yard door, and a monkey was squatting outside the door, holding a baby, trembling with coldness. When the monkey saw Shen Decai, he picked up a small stick and wrote words on the snow. Shen Decai was curious and looked over, but it was a crooked word "save". So Shen Decai and his wife took in the child and the monkey, and the child was named Shen Tianjie.
Sixteen years have passed in the blink of an eye. On this day, the mother monkey took off a purse hanging around her neck and handed it to Shen Tianjiang. It was a handkerchief full of blood words: "The one who killed your parents in Tiantai Mountain Diao Shouyi." Shen Tianjiang hurriedly showed the handkerchief of Shen Decai and his wife, and Shen Decai told him about the story of the mother monkey brought to Shen Tianjiang sixteen years ago.
I didn’t expect that there would be such a twist in his life experience. Shen Tianzhao ignored the dissuasion of Shen Decai and his wife and took his mother to Tiantai Mountain to find Diao Shouyi to seek revenge. Under the guidance of the mother monkey, he came to a beautiful place at the foot of Tiantai Mountain. Behind the mountains and waters, a large area of overgrown ruins appeared in front of him. He guessed that this must be the manor where his biological parents lived during their lifetime.
At this time, a gray-haired old man came out of the thatched hut next to him and suddenly pointed at the mother monkey: "Like a flower, like a flower, you are like a flower!" The mother monkey also recognized the old man and pulled the old man to squeak again and again Jump and shout. The old man stared at Shen Tianjiang: "This must be the young master, he looks really similar to the old master." The mother monkey nodded repeatedly. The old man knelt in front of Shen Tianxing and cried, "The old servant kowtowed to the young master. God is really good at it. I bless the young master to grow up."
The old servant is named Xiang Niu, and this abandoned manor is called Fanjiazhuang The owner of the manor, Mr. Fan, only has a daughter, Fan Xiaoyu, who is good at literature and martial arts. Fan Xiaoyu adopted a monkey and named it Ruhua. She taught it to write in her spare time. Unexpectedly, the monkey was extremely smart. Not only did she learn a lot of words, but she also wrote it in a decent manner. Seeing that the monkey was smart, Fan Xiaoyu taught him to practice martial arts. Mr. Fan accepted two apprentices, the eldest apprentice Geng Tianyong and the younger apprentice Diao Shouyi. Geng Tianyong and Diao Shouyi both like beautiful junior sisters, especially Diao Shouyi, who have been stubborn and have been trying their best to please the junior sisters. However, what the junior sister really likes is the simple and upright Geng Tianyong. When Mr. Fan returned westward, he fulfilled his wish to love his daughter and promised her to Geng Tianyong. Diao Shouyi was sad and left Fanjiazhuang. Three years after marriage, Fan Xiaoyu gave birth to a son, nicknamed Fei'er.
Just when the snow was flying all over this winter, Diao Shouyi suddenly came back. The two brothers cooked wine and drank, and Diao Shouyi quietly put on the medicine, fascinated Geng Tianyong and killed him. Fan Xiaoyu's heart is cut by a knife, and he avenged his husband with a sword. Unfortunately, he was not Diao Shouyi's opponent, but was entangled in the room by Diao Shouyi, forcing her to marry him, and threatened that Fan Xiaoyuru would not agree, and he cut him with a sword. Death Geng Fei'er. Fan Xiaoyu used the excuse to consider it, so she hid in the room and bit her finger and wrote a bloody book. When she finished writing the last word, Diao Shouyi rushed in and forced her. Fan Xiaoyu hurriedly stuffed her handkerchief into her purse and hung it around Ruhua's neck. Ruhua picked up Geng Fei'er and ran away by snatching the window. After Fan Xiaoyu swung his sword and committed suicide, Diao Shouyi swept over his property, killed all the servants, and burned Fanjiazhuang. After listening to Xiang Niu’s story, Shen Tianjian had already cried into tears. He knelt down to the ruins, and secretly swore in his heart that he would seek revenge on Diao Shouyi!
At night, the flower pushed Shen Tianjian to wake up the sleeping Shen Tianjian, pulled him to the window, and used his claws to dig out a gap. Under the moonlight, the neck of the cow was carrying firewood, and the thatched hut was already full of firewood. Xiang Niu wants to set fire to them to death! Ruhua brought the table and signaled Shen Tianjiang to stand up. It stood on Shen Tianjiang's shoulders, pulled the thatch on the roof with both hands, revealing a big hole. It jumped up first, and then hung the golden hook inverted to pull Shen Tianjiang up. Shen Tianjian and Ruhua quietly slipped into the woods. At this time, the cow lit a torch and threw it into the firewood. In an instant, the fire lit up and the thatched hut fell into the sea of fire. Shen Tianjie and the mother monkey sneaked to Xiang Niu and accidentally pushed him to the ground. When Xiang Niu saw them, he suddenly lost his soul and shouted to spare his life.It turned out that Diao Shouyi was worried that Geng Fei'er would come back to take revenge when he grew up, so he bribed Xiang Niu and waited for an opportunity to kill Shen Tianzhe. Diao Shouyi never showed up. He sent someone to send some money to Xiang Niu every year and asked for news.
Shen Tianzhao thought about it again and again, and decided to report to the official and pursue Diao Shouyi through the power of the government.
2. Complaint
Shen Tian fell to the county government until he beat the drum and complained about his grievances. County Magistrate Liu read the complaint and blood letter and slapped the awkward saying, "The bastard, dare to tease me with a beast!" Shen Tianjie hurriedly said, "There is still an old servant, Xiangniu, to prove it." County Magistrate Liu He was stunned: "Where is Xiang Niu?" Shen Tianjie said: "Living in the ruins of Fanjiazhuang." County Magistrate Liu hurriedly ordered Xiang Niu to be sent.
After an hour, the yamen runners came to report that Xiang Niu was dead. County Magistrate Liu slapped the auspicious tree and shouted to Shen Tianjiang: "What a bold and unruly man. It is clearly that you killed Xiang Niu and impersonated the descendants of the Geng family, intending to frame the loyal and kind. Let me go and fight for the forty years. "Then he put Xiang Niu's death on him, forcibly concealed him, sent him to the death penalty, waiting for the boss to be declared, and asked for the death penalty later. The mother monkey Ruhua was so anxious that she scratched her head. County Magistrate Liu ordered the constables to capture the mother monkey, and Ruhua ran away from the county government.
A few days later, Governor Yan inspected all prefectures and counties as usual. Almost reaching the boundary of Tiantai Mountain, a monkey suddenly jumped out of the roadside, alarming Lord Yan, and following the teacher, "Sir, it's a monkey blocking the middle of the road to ask for a rabbit." The officers around burst into laughter, and Lord Yan couldn't help but laugh. He laughed silently, curiosity suddenly arose, got out of the sedan chair and took the master forward. I saw a monkey kneeling in the middle of the road, holding a piece of white paper with his hands raised over his head, and the word "rabbit" was written on it. Although the strokes are loose and twisty, the font is still clearly recognized. Lord Yan frowned and said to the master, "This monkey is really here to ask for a rabbit. I don't know who is instructed to make things difficult for me." The master's eyes were sharp-eyed: "Sir, it's not the word "rabbit", it's the word "unfair". Feng Yi Blow, blow the upper half of the character, leaving only the word "rabbit". "Mr. Yan looked carefully and found that it was indeed a word "unfair". The master stepped forward and said, "Monkey, if you really have grievances, just nod it." Ruhua really nodded three times. Lord Yan snorted from his nostrils: "Monkey, I have decided to make the decision for you. You should lead the way, I will go with you."
Ruhua kept bringing Lord Yan to the county government office, and the county magistrate Liu ordered the arrest Take Ruhua quickly, Lord Yan raised his hand to stop him. Lord Yan asked clearly the reason and ordered the case file to be retrieved. He wanted to investigate the case of Shen Tianzhe murder.
Lord Yan had read the case file and frowned. He said to Liu County Magistrate: "The case of Shen Tianxue murder of Xiang Niu was a hasty decision. The time when the coroner verified Xiang Niu's death, it happened that Shen Tianxue was shouting for justice in the yamen. How could he do that? Have time to commit the crime? Let’s take a look at the accidental fire in Fanjiazhuang 16 years ago. When a martial artist faced the fire, he died in the sea of fire. Isn’t that strange?” County Magistrate Liu was timid. Lord Yan denounced the order to let Shen Tianjiang go first, and the case of Xiang Niu being killed and Shen Tianjiang being wronged for his father were filed for investigation at the same time. The whereabouts of the murderer who murdered Xiang Niu and Diao Shouyi were investigated as soon as possible.
3.Cha Min
Three days later, the suspect was arrested and Lord Yan personally interrogated. The suspect claimed to be Diao Shouyi and confessed to all the criminal facts sixteen years ago. He said that after committing the crime, he hid his identity in the county town of Tiantai, and said that Xiang Niu was also killed by him because Xiang Niu did not complete the task and betrayed him. The time of the crime he admitted was consistent with the case. At this point, the truth seems to be revealed.
pondered for a while, and Lord Yan ordered the mother monkey Ruhua to come to the hall, because only Ruhua knew Diao Shouyi. Ruhua was taken to the hall. Lord Yan slapped the arbor and asked, "Mother Monkey Ruhua, please identify it carefully. Is this person a sly person?" Ruhua squeaked in her mouth. The master understood what it meant and handed her a brush. Hepai, Ruhua wrote a big word "fake".Diao Shouyi snorted coldly: "How can a monkey tell the truth and false!" Then he turned to Lord Yan and said sarcastically, "Sir, you actually believe in a monkey. This method of judging cases is a strange thing for all ages. ! "After the words, Ruhua suddenly rushed forward and grabbed Diao Shouyi's face, and a piece of skin on Diao Shouyi's face was caught. Diao Shouyi hurriedly dodged, Ruhua stepped forward and pulled the broken skin from his face, which shocked everyone. The man suddenly changed his face. It turned out that this man was wearing a mask and pretending to be Diao Shouyi. Seeing that the matter was exposed, he bit his tongue and committed suicide, and the case was filled with new fog.
Lord Yan sent an order to go to the provincial government to ask Chief Chief Huer to come and help solve the case. Huer came to , Tiantai County , and met with Lord Yan and County Magistrate Liu. Hur is nearly 50 years old, with gray hair and a scar on his face. He went out alone for three days, and after returning, he brought shocking news that Geng Tianyong was not dead, he was still alive, and he was abbot in Guoqing Temple and his Dharma name was Lichen. Tomorrow he will come to Tiantai County Government to assist in the capture of Diao Shouyi.
That night, Master Le Chen was sitting in meditation in Guoqing Temple, and a black shadow quietly slipped beside him. Master Le Chen opened his eyes and said, " Amitabha , junior brother, you are finally here!" The black shadow said coldly, "Senior brother, it's really you." Master Le Chen said in a deep voice: "Rebellious, you have done so many evil things, today it's time to be aware of it. It's time to finish!" After saying that, Master Lechen slowly clapped his palm. This palm contained his lifelong skills and sealed all the opponent's retreat. The black shadow had no choice but to come out to greet him. The two palms met, and the earth shook. In an instant, the two had fought more than a dozen moves, and Master Lechen obviously gained the upper hand. At this time, the black shadow stabilized his body, turned his right hand into a palm, and used the word "stick" technique to stick to Master Le Chen's palm, constantly stimulating internal strength. He forced Master Chen to compete for internal strength, intending to lose both sides. perish together. Master Lechen had no choice but to transport internal force to resist.
The two of them were in stalemate, and their internal strength became weaker and weaker. At this time, an pine cone suddenly shot out from the darkness, hitting the black shadow's head, and the black shadow spit out a few mouthfuls of blood and fled. The female monkey Ruhua rushed out of the darkness and stopped the black shadow. In the battle, a piece of flesh was torn off by Ruhua. Shen Tianjiang hurriedly helped Master Chen up. It turned out that Shen Tianzhan learned that Master Chen was his father Geng Tianyong, and took Ruhua to Guoqing Temple to recognize his father overnight. At this time, he heard the sound of "Amitabha" and another Master Lechen came out from behind the palace. Shen Tian was confused! Which of the two Masters Lechen is his father? The injured Master Le Chen reached out and whipped his face, revealing his true face, and it was Captain Hu. Captain Hu stroked Shen Tianjiang's head and said kindly: "Child, I am your father Geng Tianyong!"
Captain Hu slowly recalled. Sixteen years ago, Diao Shouyi burned Fanjiazhuang, and the rolling smoke woke Geng Tianyong up. Although Geng Tianyong was hit by a sword in his chest, the sword edge was one inch away and was not fatal. With his perseverance in survival, he crawled out of the thick smoke of fire. He was burned by the fire, especially his face was almost inhuman, without a single piece of complete skin. He staggered to Guoqing Temple and found his cousin, Monk Lechen. Although Monk Lechen knows martial arts, he understands medical skills. Under the careful care of Monk Chen, Geng Tianyong gradually recovered, but his face was covered with uneven scars from then on.
Geng Tianyong bid farewell to Monk Chen and wandered alone in the world, searching for Diao Shouyi's whereabouts. As soon as the provincial government office recruited a constable, Geng Tianyong changed his name to Huer and signed up for the constable. Because Geng Tianyong is good at skill and smart and capable, he has solved many major cases and gradually promoted to the position of chief inspector. However, in the past sixteen years, he has not found any information about Diao Shouyi. When Lord Yan sent someone to invite Geng Tianyong, the Chief Hu, to Tiantai County to assist in solving the case of Shen Tianjiang complaining about his parents, he couldn't help but burst into tears. One was that his son Geng Fei'er was not buried in the fire, and the other was that he finally heard that News that Diao Shouyi is still alive. Since someone has settled the case by pretending to be Diao Shouyi, the mastermind behind it must be the mastermind Diao Shouyi.
He thought hard and came up with a plan to alert the enemy: he first pretended to call Master Chen, the abbot of Guoqing Temple, Geng Tianyong, and then disguised himself as Master Chen, waiting for the arrival of Diao Shouyi, waiting for the opportunity to capture him. But what Geng Tianyong did not expect was that Diao Shouyi was in a defeat and suddenly led him to compete for his internal strength, and he almost became a dead soul. Shen Tianjiang also told all his experiences, and Geng Tianyong was crying when he heard them.
4. Catch the evil
After dawn, the father and son bid farewell to Master Lechen and rushed to Tiantai County Government with Ruhua.
Geng Tianyong told Lord Yan that the case had been solved and asked Lord Yan to catch the real murderer together. Lord Yan brought his entourage, Geng Tianyong and Shen Tian to the inner yard of Liu County Magistrate, and Liu County Magistrate hurriedly came out to greet him. Geng Tianyong said bluntly: "Dare you ask County Magistrate Liu, do you dare to pull up the sleeve of your left hand to let everyone see if you are injured?" County Magistrate Liu blushed and asked, "Who are you?" Geng Tianyong opened his eyes wide open: "I am Geng Tianyong! The first time I talked to you, I have concluded from the sound quality and tone that you are Diao Shouyi. To further prove, I set up a plan to lead you to Guoqing Temple and recognize you as Liu County. ”
County Magistrate Liu frowned and said fiercely: "Since you have seen through it, you might as well say it out loud, so that you can die with peace of mind. Sixteen years ago, I fled from Fanjiazhuang and went north to Beijing, changed my appearance, hid my name, and flower I entrusted an acquaintance to donate an official position in the Ministry of Personnel for more than ten years. I was appointed as an official in another place for more than ten years. The year before yesterday, I was transferred to Tiantai County to serve. Because the mother Hou Ruhua took your son away, I dare not take it lightly, so I specially arranged Xiang Niu Guarding in Fanjiazhuang On the ruins, act according to the opportunity. Who knew that Xiang Niu was useless. Your son went to the county government to complain and hit me. So I randomly convicted him and sent him to death, and forever to avoid future troubles. In fact, Xiang Niu is me The detective Kong Wu killed. But unexpectedly, Ruhua, a beast, ruined my big deal and stopped me and shouted for justice, which attracted the attention of Lord Yan. In desperation, I bribed a death row prisoner and asked him to disguise himself as me, with the intention of The case was settled and missed. But he was Ruhua accidentally exposes it, which leads to the situation today. "
Governor Yan shouted: "Why don't you take down Diao Shouyi!" Diao Shouyi laughed: "You are dead to the forefront! Senior brother, you turn your head Look at the incense stick in the middle of the table. It is the unique incense I have developed over the past decade. It is colorless and tasteless. Why don’t you fall down quickly?” As soon as he finished speaking, Lord Yan and others fell down one after another. Geng Tianyong was furious and wanted to say something, but couldn't say anything, and fell to the ground with a bang. Diao Shouyi pulled out a knife from the constable and chopped off Geng Tianyong's head. When Diao Shouyi went to find Shen Tianshen, he could not find Shen Tianshen. At this time, several constables rushed into the outside, arched their bows and shot arrows. Diao Shouyi was in charge of internal injuries and dared not fight, so he grabbed the window and fled.
It turned out that the mother monkey caught the odor in the air like a flower and quietly wrote the word "avoid" in Shen Tianjian's hand. Shen Tianzhao wanted to tell his father, but Ruhua pulled him away anxiously. As soon as he walked out of the inner yard, Shen Tianjian was dizzy. Ruhua hurriedly washed his face with cold water before he woke up.
Shen Tianjiang and Ruhua met several constables outside the county government office and hurriedly asked them to go and save the person, but they were still one step late. Geng Tianyong had been killed by Diao Shouyi. Shen Tianjiang hugged Geng Tianyong's body and cried loudly. After 16 years of separation, the father and son had just recognized each other, but now they have become a farewell forever!
detectives chased Diao Shouyi and chased him all the way to the mountains and forests on the outskirts of the city. Diao Shouyi was running wildly among the woods. Suddenly, like a flower fell from the sky and blocked Diao Shouyi's way. Diao Shou turned his head and ran away. Shen Tianjie jumped off the branch and blocked his way. Diao Shou slashed with a knife, and Shen Tianxiao quickly climbed onto the branch and swung it ten feet away. After half an hour of fighting, Diao Shouyi finally got exhausted and fell to the ground. Ruhua picked up the knife and handed it to Shen Tianjiang. Shen Tianjiang raised his sword and fell, and Diao Shou fell to the ground with his head.
Governor Yan hangs Diao Shouyi's head on the city gate to show his public, convict Kong Wu of the punishment, and report to the court to handle all the funerals. Shen Tianjiang buried Geng Tianyong in the ruins of Fanjiazhuang and built a tomb for his mother Fan Xiaoyu next to him.Then, Shen Tianjie took his mother Monkey Ruhua back to Yandang Mountain, married a wife, worked with peace of mind, served Shen Decai and his wife in their old age, and respected Ruhua as the "monkey mother".
