There is a scholar named Chen Jin in Guyuan Village. Speaking of Chen Jin, he is also a pitiful person because he is an orphan.
When Chen Jin was six years old, his parents went out to fish one day, but unexpectedly they both passed away unexpectedly, leaving Chen Jin alone.
The villagers saw Chen Jin feel pitiful, so they often brought rice and flour to help Chen Jin, and some often asked Chen Jin to have dinner at their own home.
Just like that, with the help of the villagers, Chen Jin grew up.
Although Chen Jin lacks the discipline of his parents since childhood, Chen Jin is a very good person. He is not only kind-hearted, but also very helpful.
Whenever someone in the village needs help, as long as he greets him, Chen Jin will go and help immediately.
Chen Jin had no money, so he could not go to a private school like others, but Chen Jin knew very well that if he wanted to make a name for himself, then he could only study.
So Chen Jin, who had no money, soon came up with a method, which was to go to the private school every day to eavesdrop on the teacher's lectures.
Since I had no money to buy paper and pen, Chen Jin used branches as pens and thick soil as paper, and then wrote and wrote poems on the ground.
But after a long time, Chen Jin also knew that this was not a solution, so the clever Chen Jin thought of another method.
After Chen Jin calculated the time that day, he waited early on the way Mr. Lin would go home. After a while, Mr. Lin walked slowly towards Chen Jin.
After hesitating for a moment, Chen Jin stopped Mr. Lin who was going home, and then respectfully said straight to the point: "Mr. Lin, I want to study and learn to read with you, but I don't have money, but I can help your family with herd cattle to compensate for my tuition. Do you think this is OK?"
Hearing Chen Jin's words, Mr. Lin looked at Chen Jin in front of him and smiled and said: "Okay, it's rare that you have such a eagerness to learn. Then you can go to the church to attend classes from tomorrow and go to herd cattle after returning home from school." After that, Mr. Lin continued to walk home.
After watching Mr. Lin leave, Chen Jin was very happy and jumped happily in the same place for a few times, then hummed a small song and walked home.
The next morning, Chen Jin arrived at the school early and sat down calmly, waiting for Mr. Lin to come to teach.
From then on, Chen Jin went to the private school to listen to Mr. Lin’s teaching every day, and then went to herd cattle for Mr. Lin’s house after school.
Chen Jin is very smart and easy to learn. Mr. Lin is also very happy to see this, so sometimes he teaches Chen Jin privately and gives Chen Jin a lot of books he has read.
Chen Jin himself is also very successful. As long as he has free time every day, he will study hard, and occasionally take some time to do some short work and earn some money to maintain his family income.
, and Chen Jin's efforts were not in vain. Chen Jin passed every exam successfully, and Mr. Lin was very proud of him.
But recently something has stumped Chen Jin because he should go to Beijing to take the exam, but he is penniless, so how can he have money to go to Beijing to take the exam?
That night, Chen Jin, who was depressed by the troubles, wanted to study hard to relieve his sorrow, but his family was poor and he had no money to buy oil lamps or candles, so his home was pitch black at night.
But after thinking for a while, Chen Jin seemed to have thought of something, and walked towards the Fox Fairy Temple outside the village with the book.
Using the oil lamp in the Fox Fairy Temple, Chen Jin began to study hard, but because he was too immersed, he gradually forgot the time.
When Chen Jin woke up, it was already the third update. At this time, Chen Jin suddenly felt cold. After a closer look, he found that a big hole had been broken in the window of the Fox Fairy Temple, and the cold wind kept pouring in from outside the house.
Seeing that it was getting late, Chen Jin walked home with the book and then started to go to bed.
The next night, when Chen Jin came to the Fox Fairy Temple to study hard, he was holding two wooden boards and some carpenter tools in his hand.
The carpenter's tools were borrowed from the old carpenter in the village in the evening. He wanted to fill in the broken window of the Fox Fairy Temple.
After arriving at the Fox Fairy Temple, Chen Jin put the books aside, then knelt on the cushion devoutly and clasped his hands together and said, "Fox Fairy Queen, I saw that your window was broken, so I dared to repair your window. If there is anything wrong, I hope you don't get used to it." After that, Chen Jin began to smash and repair the window.
Because Chen Jin had not learned carpenter skills, he worked hard for a while before repairing the broken window. Although it didn't look very beautiful, at least the cold wind would not blow in again.
After doing all this, Chen Jin began to hold the books and start studying hard. It was not until the third update that Chen Jin left with the books and tools.
After returning home, Chen Jin put down the books and tools in the dark and went to bed. Unexpectedly, Chen Jin, who had just fallen asleep, dreamed of a beautiful woman. She saw the beautiful woman wearing a phoenix crown, a rosy cloak, and auspicious clouds standing in the air.
The beautiful woman looked at Chen Jin with a smile and said, "Chen Jin, I am the Fox Fairy Queen. I think you are studying hard and want to have a day to make a comeback, but you are penniless and cannot go to Beijing to take the exam. So I will give you the silver you need. I hope that after you become famous on the list, you can be kind-hearted and serve the people. Otherwise, the laws of nature will be clear and you will be retribution."
After these words, the Fox Fairy Queen disappeared, and Chen Jin also woke up.
Thinking of the very real dream just now, Chen Jin was very confused, but suddenly felt his arms sore, so he wanted to turn over and lie on his side.
Unexpectedly, I suddenly felt a foreign object beside me, so Chen Jin touched it with his hand and it turned out to be a package.
Curious, Chen Jin walked out of the house with the package, and checked the items in the package in the moonlight, and saw that it was full of silver.
Looking at the silver in the package, Chen Jin couldn't bear the excitement in his heart, because with these silver, he could go to Beijing to take the exam.
Thinking of this, Chen Jin immediately went into the house to pack his belongings, intending to start rushing to Beijing to take the exam tomorrow morning.
Early in the morning, Chen Jin walked towards the Fox Fairy Temple with two bags on his back. After putting down his bags, Chen Jin knelt on the cushion, then put his hands together and looked at the statue of the Fox Fairy Demon and said respectfully: "Fox Fairy Demon, I have received the silver you gave you. I will remember your kindness for the rest of my life. When I succeed in the future, I will reshape your golden body to repay your grace today. I will also remember what you told me in your dream. If I can really be on the list this time, I will do my best to do my best to serve the people, be a good official and an honest official, and die for the people and the country."
After saying that, Chen Jin bowed respectfully three times, and then set off again with the bag on his back and started rushing.
A month later, Chen Jin came to a place called Black Eagle Mountain. Seeing that it was already noon and there were many big trees covering the shade here, Chen Jin leaned on a big tree and began to eat the dry food he brought.
, just as he was eating, Chen Jin heard the moans of animals nearby, but when Chen Jin listened carefully, the sound disappeared again.
But Chen Jin was very curious, so he checked around. Unexpectedly, after checking for a while, Chen Jin saw a little fox covered in snow-white body lying not far away, his left leg was covered in blood, and there were traces of being clipped by a clip on his legs.
At this time, the little fox also saw Chen Jin, so he hurriedly thought of getting up and running, but because of the injury on his leg, it couldn't run away at all. As soon as it stood up, it fell down staggeringly.
Chen Jin saw this and waved his hand softly and said, "You don't have to be afraid of the little fox. I won't hurt you. Your leg injury is very serious. I'll show you." After that, he walked slowly towards the little fox.
And the little fox seemed to understand Chen Jin's words and believed Chen Jin, so he continued to lie on the ground safely.
Chen Jin touched the injured area with his hand, and after touching it several times, he breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately your bones are fine, don't worry, I'll put a medicine on you, your legs will be healed in a few days." After that, he ran back to the place where he put his bags.
After searching for a while, Chen Jin found a pack of medicine powder from the bag.
It turned out that Chen Jin was worried that he might be injured on the way before leaving, so just in case, Chen Jin brought a pack of golden sore medicine from home in case of emergency.
Chen Jin took the medicine and went back to sprinkle medicine on the little fox's injured area, then tore off a piece of cloth from his clothes and gently wrapped it on the little fox.
After doing all this, Chen Jin put some dry food in front of the little fox and said, "Little fox, I still have to go to Beijing to take the exam, so I can't accompany you anymore. Be careful in the future, I'll leave first." After that, Chen Jin set out again with his baggage on his back.
After walking for a long time, looking at the blocked mountains in front of him, Chen Jin sorted out his bags and continued to walk forward.
But before I could walk a few steps, Chen Jin saw an old man sitting on the side of the road. Seeing this, Chen Jin stepped forward and asked, "Old man, why are you sitting here?"
"Hey, I'm old and useless. My family is behind this mountain. I wanted to do something early this morning, but I sprained my ankle as soon as I got here. Now I can't move at all." The old man looked at Chen Jin and replied.
It is said that life is rare in seventy years, but the old man in front of him seems to be in his nineties, and it is really pitiful to sit here alone.
Thinking of this, Chen Jin said, "Old man, why don't I carry you home? I will climb this mountain now."
When I heard Chen Jin's words, the old man expressed his gratitude repeatedly and said that Chen Jin was a good person and would definitely be rewarded in the future. Chen Jin just smiled and did not answer after hearing the old man's words.
Chen Jin hung his bag around his neck, then bent down and carried the old man on his back and started climbing the mountain.
Because the two bags hanging around the neck are very heavy, and there is a person on their backs, and it is difficult to walk on the mountain road, Chen Jin almost fell down several times, but fortunately, Chen Jin could stabilize his body in time and continue walking forward.
After walking for a long time, Chen Jin finally carried the old man across the mountain and saw a house made of stone not far away.
The old man pointed to the house and said that it was his home, and he also asked Chen Jin to carry it into the house for him.
Chen Jin was already out of breath after carrying the old man into the house, and his clothes were already soaked in sweat. Chen Jin, who was too tired, stood beside him, gasping heavily.
After a long time, Chen Jin calmed down and corrected the bones of the old man's sprained ankle.
Because Chen Jin had learned some medical skills from Huang Langzhong in the village, the little thing about bone correction is easy for Chen Jin.
Considering that the old man was old and it was inconvenient for him to live alone, Chen Jin left half of the dry food he had left for the old man.
The old man expressed his gratitude again after seeing this, and said that he would give it to Chen Jin for his life-saving grace.
Although Chen Jin repeatedly refused to refuse, he still couldn't resist the old man's stubbornness.
After a while, the old man took out a piece of red silk from the bottom of the box, but it was obvious that the red silk was still wrapped in it.
The old man untied the red silk and said, "Benefactor, this is my family heirloom. I will give it to you now to express my gratitude to you."
But when Chen Jin saw the wrapped thing in the red silk, Chen Jin's eyes were full of confusion and confusion. After hesitating for a moment, Chen Jin asked in disbelief: "Old man, are you sure, are you sure this is your family heirloom? Isn’t this just a piece of dried shit? ”
After hearing Chen Jin's words, the old man was not angry, but replied with a smile: "Well, yes, this is a piece of dried shit, but it is indeed my family heirloom. I tell you that if you bring it with you, you can save your life at a critical moment. "After saying that, he wrapped the shit again and handed it to Chen Jin.
Chen Jin saw that the old man didn't look like he was joking, and he thought that a piece of shit was not a valuable thing, so he took the shit from the old man and in order to show respect, Chen Jin also put the shit in his arms.
After thanking the old man, Chen Jin began to continue his journey again because he could not miss the exam time.
Early the next morning, Chen Jin came to the Black Tiger Cliff. Chen Jin had heard Mr. Lin say that the Black Tiger Cliff is very dangerous. Bandits often block the road and rob. Sometimes if they grab valuable items, the bandits will let go when they are happy and will not kill them.
But if the person robbed has no valuable items, the bandits will kill the robbed on the spot to relieve their hatred.
So the bandits on the Black Tiger Cliff can be said to be It is notorious, and everyone is afraid of talking.
I heard that the court had sent troops to suppress bandits, but because the terrain of the Black Tiger Cliff is easy to defend and difficult to attack, the court sent troops to suppress bandits several times and returned home, so in the end he could only let it go.
Although he knew that the Black Tiger Cliff was dangerous, Chen Jin still had to take the risk, because if he had a detour, he would have to take two or three months more.
After he gave himself courage in his heart, Chen Jin walked forward with a tough bullet, hoping that he could safely cross the Black Tiger Cliff this time.
But things were not as good as others wished. Chen Jin had just walked for a while, and several people jumped out from the side to stop him, and surrounded Chen Jin from the front, back and left and right.
Chen Jin could only hold back the fear in his heart and said, "Several heroes, I am just a scholar, and there are no valuable items on my body. I also asked several heroes to let me go. I will never forget the grace of the heroes today in the future. ”
When he heard Chen Jin's words, several bandits laughed. The leading bandit walked up and said, "I don't care whether you have money or not. If you have money, you must pay for the money to buy a road. If you don't have money, then you will leave your life behind. "After saying that, he waved his hand to search for Chen Jin's bag.
But after searching for a while, he found that Chen Jin's bag was nothing but dry food, clothes and books.
The bandit leader was very angry when he saw this, and raised his machete to Chen Jin's neck and said viciously: "Since you have no money, then you can save your life. "
" Hey, what is hiding in your chest? How come it is bulging? "Just when the bandit leader wanted to bear Chen Jin's fruit, he suddenly saw Chen Jin's chest bulging. After saying that, he reached out to take things out of Chen Jin's arms.
The bandit leader took out the "family heirloom" given by the old man from Chen Jin's arms and smiled happily: "You kid are not honest. You don't take out any good things, but you wrap them in three layers of red silk inside and three layers of outer layers. I think it must be a good thing. If there are good things inside, I will spare your life, but if you put something worthless, then you go to hell. "After saying that, he started to uncover the red silk.
" Haha, it was actually a piece of gold. Such a large piece of gold is really rare. "The bandit leader held the shit in his hand and laughed while watching. At this time, the bandits beside him laughed happily after seeing the shit.
But Chen Jin was puzzled because what he saw was indeed just a piece of shit, but why do these bandits regard shit as gold?
But seeing the bandits so happy, Chen Jin didn't think much, so he said, "Several heroes, this piece of gold is a treasure of my family's ancestral treasure. I forgot to take it out to honor you just now. I think this gold is also very destined to you, so I will treat this piece of gold as my filial piety to you, so you can let me go, that's good?"
Hearing Chen Jin's words, the bandit leader looked at the shit in his hand, then looked at Chen Jin and smiled, "Haha, you're more sensible, okay, I'm in a good mood today, so I'll spare your life, let's go." After that, he shook his hand and signaled Chen Jin to leave.
Chen Jin didn't dare to stop any longer when he saw this, so he took his burden and left.
Half a year later, Chen Jin passed the imperial examination and became the top scorer in high school.
The emperor originally wanted to recruit Chen Jin into the Hanlin Academy, but Chen Jin refused. Chen Jin always remembered the kindness of the villagers to him and always remembered what the Fox Fairy Queen said to him. So he asked the emperor to send him to his hometown, saying that he wanted to contribute to the people in his hometown and benefit the people in his hometown.
Faced with Chen Jin's request, and after learning about Chen Jin's life experience, the emperor agreed to Chen Jin's request and allowed Chen Jin to start from the grassroots level and become a county magistrate.
When he returned home, Chen Jin remembered the last time he passed by the Black Tiger Cliff. He always felt that something must be strange about this, so he returned to the old man's house and wanted to visit the old man.
Unexpectedly, when Chen Jin came to the old man's house again, he could not find the old man's stone house. He saw that there was only a mountain temple made of stones nearby.
Looking at the statue of the mountain god in the temple, Chen Jin seemed to understand something. After saluting respectfully to the statue of the mountain god, he said, "Master of the Mountain God, Chen Jin already knows your grace of giving treasures and helping each other last time. Don't worry, I am now a county magistrate. In the future, I will be a good official and be a good official for the country and the people. I will never let you down my life-saving grace."
After taking office, Chen Jin has always strictly demanded himself. During his tenure, he was honest and clear.
And he did not forget the promise he made to the Fox Fairy Empress. After accumulating some savings, Chen Jin reshaped the golden body for the Fox Fairy Empress.
Later, because Chen Jin was very popular with the people, and he was also proud of his career during his tenure, and he always adhered to the spirit of serving the people. Therefore, Chen Jin was transferred to the prefect after nine years of his tenure.
Thinking of the bandits on the Black Tiger Cliff. In order for the people to pass the Black Tiger Cliff smoothly in the future and no longer be persecuted by the bandits, Chen Jin personally led the troops to suppress the bandits.
and successfully caught the bandit leader who had the knife on his neck. At the same time, he also captured many bandits. The remaining bandits who ran away were already scared and would never dare to come back to Heihu Cliff and continue to be bandits.
At this time, Chen Jin finally knew one thing, that is, after he left, the gold held in the bandit's hand turned into a piece of dried shit.
The angry bandits knew that they were fooled by Chen Jin when they saw this, so they chased after Chen Jin in the direction they were walking, but Chen Jin was gone.
Two years later, Chen Jin married the daughter of an adult in the court and gave birth to a son, named Chen Kaiyi.
After that, Chen Jin was also smooth sailing in the officialdom and was highly valued by the emperor.
Chen Jin, who had been an official for many years, did not resign until he was in his twilight years and returned to his hometown to retire, and the Chen family gradually became a prominent family.
Conclusion: "A good person has good hearts and good results, and the heavenly way will bring good results." It is precisely because Chen Jin planted good causes that he finally produced good results one after another.
If Chen Jin did not help the fox fairy repair the broken window, he would not have the money to go to Beijing to take the exam as a burden.If Chen Jin had no intention of saving the fox, he would not have been appreciated by the mountain god.
If Chen Jin did not bring back the old man because of his kindness, he would not have gotten shit, and he would eventually escape from the bandits.
Although Chen Jin's final success and fame are related to his hard study, if he did not have good results again and again, I am afraid that Chen Jin could not even go to Beijing to take the exam, so how could he talk about his final success and fame?
Although this is a short story, it allows us to remember this sentence: "People in the world with kindness, but they can't move in a short time with maliciousness."
