There is no peace in the clouds and mists, and the strange sounds of ghosts and wolves crying and howling are often heard. Over the years, more than a dozen people who entered the mountain have disappeared.
Hong Fengyi is a carpenter and has always been brave.
This day, he was entrusted by his employer to enter the deep mountains of Yunwu Mountain and find a large fir tree suitable for making the beam .
was wandering around looking for fir trees, and suddenly stepped on a round thing in the pile of fallen leaves, and one fell to a stumble.
"Ouch! What the hell is it that tripping me!"
used the branch to pick the fallen leaves and looked at it: "Oh! Skeleton bone!"
Hong Fengyi was shocked and looked carefully. He looked at it carefully and found that it was a wooden skeleton, which was a little decayed and covered with moss.
"Unfortunate! I encountered this thing for no reason!"
was about to cover it with fallen leaves, but I saw small characters engraved on the forehead of the wooden skull, and moss was used to pick up the clean forehead with branches, and the words "General Protecting the People" were engraved on it.
"It turns out that it is the head of a general who protects the country and the people. I don't know where his real body is. Why is this wooden skeleton scattered in the deep mountains and forests?"
saw the small words. At this time, Hong Fengyi no longer had disgust and fear. He carefully picked it up, wiped the moss, and put it in his own cloth bag.
After returning home, he used some remaining wood to carve the torso and limbs, put them together, and installed them with wooden skeletons. His craftsmanship was good and he was tightly slit.
Another trip, transported the wooden skeleton and torso to the foot of Yunwu Mountain to bury it, lit candles and burn incense, and said, "General, I have equipped your torso, and I am buried in peace, please bless me to be rich and noble!"
On the night of that day, Hong Fengyi dreamed of an iron-armed general holding his fists and saying, "Thank you, my husband, and I have to restrain my head and equip me torso, and I can go to fight against the mountain ghost king again!"
Hong Fengyi asked in his dream, "General, don't thank you, it's just a little effort. Who is that mountain ghost king?"
Iron-armed general then told Hong Fengyi a past event.
It turned out that when he was alive hundreds of years ago, he was named a guerrilla general because of his military achievements.
One day, he encountered the son of the Grand Tutor Pang, the son of the current dynasty, bullied the civilian girl, so he took action to hurt Pang, rescued the woman, and offended the Pang family.
Later, the Pang family weaved the charges and sent him to death. They were killed soon after, and sent someone to throw his head into a cliff, hoping to separate his head and not be reborn.
The people knew about this and quietly buried his torso. Because they had no head, they asked someone to carve a wooden skeleton in hardwood, wrapped it with thick paper, and then bury it together.
Hundreds of years later, the torso has long been corrupted, leaving only a wooden skeleton, which was later dug out by a tomb robber and discarded.
After telling the past, the iron-armored general suddenly opened his eyes widened: "The young master Pang later passed away, and the evil man turned into evil ghosts, and actually hid in the clouds and mist mountains. In the past ten years, his soul has grown stronger and stronger, and he occupied the forests, gathered lonely ghosts in the mountains, and called himself the king of mountain ghosts. He has killed more than a dozen people who entered the mountain! I have fought with him several times in the past, but he was defeated by him because of his weak soul. Now that I have a new torso, I must avenge my previous revenge and eliminate evil ghosts for the people!"
Hong Fengyi admired him: "So that's it, the general is righteous!"
"But, I don't have weapons and horses now, so I'm sorry for my kindness!"
"But I don't have weapons and horses now, so I'm sorry for my kindness!"
"It's just that, I don't have any weapons and horses now, so I'm sorry for my kindness!" After that, I bowed my hands.
Early the next morning, Hong Fengyi woke up and remembered his dream last night, and said movedly, "What a loyal and righteous man, I'll help you with this!"
Then he went out, found the paper fire shop, bought a few paper horses, and found that he did not sell paper knives and swords, so he bought hard paper and made himself, and made a pair of golden armor and a silver spear for the general.
The next day, he used a cart to pull a pile of paper products to the foot of the mountain and burned it in front of the general's grave.
"General, please accept it. I wish you success and revenge!"
It was just his kindness that attracted revenge.
A few days later, in the first half of the night, Hong Fengyi dreamed that a person with disheveled hair and blood was scattered into the dream, gritting his teeth and saying, "Okay, Hong Fengyi! You actually carved the torso for him, and burned troops to deal with me! I can't spare you!" After that, he cursed and left.
In the second half of the night, the general came to his dream again, covered in golden armor, holding silver spear and said, "Thank you, my benefactor! My combat power has increased greatly and I have injured the Mountain Ghost King. This person will definitely avenge him and will definitely come back to take revenge. Even my benefactor cannot be spared. It is me who implicates my benefactor, and I hope to forgive my crime!"
Hong Fengyi said indignantly: "General, don't blame yourself. You are not only for revenge, but also for the safety of the people. I will help you with the responsibility!"
" Benefactor's righteousness! The mountain Ghost King went west after being injured and went to the west after going to revenge!
" Benefactor's righteousness! The mountain Ghost King went west after being injured. There is a group of plague ghosts in the west, tall, white skin and yellow hair, birds singing, good face and evil hearts. He must have gone to bring in plague ghosts to deal with me. "
" Then how do we deal with it?"
" Please be kind, be kind, be kind, be kind, I have informed the old soldiers of that year that anyone who is still in the world will gather from all directions soon, and be kind, be kind, prepare more weapons and paper horses, and fight to the death with the King of Mountain Ghosts! "
"Okay! Don't worry!"
The next day, he woke up and invited relatives, friends and neighbors to tell them about their recent experiences.
Everyone was indignant and said, "It's really abominable. We will help the general!"
Then everyone bought paper, cut and pasted, and emptied several paper fire shops.
The bosses of several paper fire shops knew the whole story and returned the money and said, "Since it is for the sake of the people's righteousness, how can we collect money? Let's do our part too!"
The crowd worked hard for three days, made hundreds of sets of armor, weapons and paper horses, loaded several large carts, and transported them to the foot of the mountain, piled them up and burned them, and set up an altar to pay tribute to the heroes.
On the evening of that day, everyone heard the sound of killing in the clouds and mists and mountains shook the sky! It was accompanied by the attacks of weapons and the neighing of horses, which lasted for a whole night.
The next day, Hong Fengyi and more than a dozen brave people went up the mountain to check, and saw that the mountain was covered with falling paper ashes.
Someone checked carefully and said, "Isn't this the weapon and horse we burned?"
"That's right! It seems that the general led his old troops and horses, and fought against the white-skinned ghosts in the mountains. I don't know whether it was a loss or a win or a win?"
After that, there was no more strange sounds in the clouds and mist mountains, and those who entered the mountains were no longer easily lost and were as peaceful as before.
The following year, Hong Fengyi's wife gave birth to a fat son for him. Later, the son grew up, was strong and had a strong martial arts skills, and was extremely filial to Hong Fengyi and his wife.
Hong Fengyi often stares at his son in a daze.
The son asked curiously, "Father, why do you always stare at me?"
Hong Fengyi smiled and said, "I look at your figure and look very much like a friend."
"Which friend of you looks like?"
"General protecting the people."
