In ancient times, there was a man who was big and thick, with dark skin all over his body, and his family was the second, so that his neighbors called him Erheizi.
Erheizi has a son who is less than three years old and named Tiedan. He doesn't look as dark as Erheizi, with fair skin, clever and cute, and very adorable.
One day, Erheizi went to the field to work, and his wife was working at home, so she let Tiedan play in the backyard by herself. Tiedan felt bored in the yard for a while, so she ran out of the yard and came to the side of the road. Tiedan was very smart and had a good memory. He knew that his father was working in the field not far ahead, so he wanted to follow the road to find his father.
At this time, an old man Liu who was driving a ox cart passed by the side of the road. He saw Tiedan and a little kid walking, so he stopped the ox cart and asked: What are you going to do, baby? Tiedan said obediently: I want to find my dad. Old Man Liu's eyes rolled and said: I'll take you to find your father.
After saying that, he jumped out of the car and carried Tiedan into the ox cart. Tiedan believed that he was tilted his head and sat obediently on the ox cart. Old Man Liu shouted and raised his whip to drive the ox cart quickly.
The reason why Old Man Liu wanted to take Tiedan away was because he had evil intentions. He and his wife had no children all their lives, so he wanted to bring Tiedan home as a son to raise. After walking on the road for a long time, Tiedan saw that the road became more and more unfamiliar and felt something was wrong, so he started to cry. Old Man Liu was also very panicked when he saw this and hurriedly stopped the car to coax him, but the child could not coax his relatives at all, and the more he coaxed his relatives, the more he cried, the more he cried.
More than a dozen people who fled came over. They saw Tiedan crying and asking for his father, while the old man Liu next to him was scaring him with a stern face. Someone came forward to persuade Old Man Liu and said: How can you, a grandfather, just scare your grandson? When Tiedan heard this, she burst into tears and said: He is not my grandfather, I don’t know him. When everyone heard suspicion, they surrounded and questioned Old Man Liu. Seeing that there were many people, Old Man Liu was guilty of being a thief, so he hurriedly threw down the iron ball and fled in panic.
Erheizi came back from work in the field and asked his busy wife in the kitchen before she saw Tiedan: Where did Tiedan go? When the wife heard this, she panicked. Didn’t he play in the yard? The two of them searched in front of and behind the house several times, but there was still Tiedan's figure. The wife immediately collapsed on the ground and cried. Erheizi was so anxious that she didn't know what to do.
At this moment, a group of people came from the road, and Tiedan's voice came from the crowd: Dad, Mom. The couple was overjoyed and ran out of the door to see Tiedan, so they pounced on him and hugged him tightly. Erheizi found the child and thanked the group of people who fled. He was very grateful to him and asked them to stay at home for dinner, but there were too many people. There were not so many dishes at home for a while. His wife was very worried. Erheizi slapped his forehead and said: There is a small donkey in the backyard of our house, so we can slaughter it.
Erheizi bought a small donkey before. Because he was sick for a long time, he couldn't cure it. He kept tying it in the backyard and didn't work. Erhei had long wanted to slaughter it and eat meat. When people heard that they wanted to slaughter the donkey, they clapped their hands and said: OK, the dragon meat in the sky, the donkey meat underground, this donkey meat is a good thing. Now we can play teeth and sacrifice .
So Erheizi took everyone to the backyard to drive the donkey. The little donkey was pulled out tremblingly. People said: The donkeys are so sick, as thin as bamboo poles, and their meat shrinks, and they will definitely not taste good. Erheizi said: I have a way. I saw him throw the donkey on the stump and beat him with a whip, forcing him to run. The donkey's blood flows rapidly on his body, so that the flesh will live.
If you want to say that this method is just a folk superstition, it is not worth taking it seriously. Erheizi really believed it. He kept beating the donkey. The donkey couldn't run because he was sick. Erheizi saw that the whip was useless and he picked up the knife and stabbed it on the donkey's butt. The donkey screamed and ran wildly.
Because it was tied to a rope, it could only circle around the tree. The rope was wrapped to the end, and the donkey turned around again. Once the donkey stopped, Erhei stepped forward and stabbed it again, and tossed back and forth. The donkey finally foamed at the burden and fell to the ground, leaving only the sound of breathing.
Seeing this, Erhei started to slaughter the donkey and bleed. A group of people gathered together to barbecue donkey meat and eat and drink, and they ate until midnight. Only then did everyone lie down under the eaves and rest. The next day, it was noon and everyone bowed to Erhei and continued to go south.
Erheizi said goodbye to everyone and slowly went to work in the fields. When he walked to his neighbor's house, an unexpected scene appeared. The neighbor's female donkey suddenly broke free from the reins and rushed towards Erheizi. Suddenly, Erheizi could not dodge and was hit on the wall. Her head was broken and her ribs were broken.
female donkey obviously did not intend to give up. It was panting and lying on the donkey's hooves to attack again. Erhei shouted help in panic. The neighbors rushed over and several people rushed to stop the female donkey. The female donkey was restrained and furious. She raised her head and screamed at the sky, and tears even shed in her eyes.
It turned out that Erheizi tortured and beat the little donkey in the yard yesterday and died. The female donkey was always seen by the female donkey. The little donkey was originally the mother donkey's biological child, and Erhei bought it from his neighbor's house. He witnessed his child being tortured and died with his own eyes. He was heartbroken and hated Erhei to the core.
Seeing Erhei passing by, he tried his best to break free and wanted to avenge his children. After the villagers knew the truth, they accused Erhei of being cruel and ruthless, and it was a blessing that the female donkey did not kill him.
