In the early years, there was a member of Huangjia Town named Huang Yuanqing. He had a wealthy family. Although he had three wives and four concubines, he had only one son under his knees and was named Huang Lang. Although the Huang family has been rich in the town for several generations, no one has ever been an official in the past. Huang Yuanqing was determined to hope that Huang Lang would study hard and be able to get a job in one or two positions in the future, so that he could shine.
Who knew that Huang Lang had been stupid since he was a child and lacked spiritual energy. He forgot everything about the articles taught by his husband in the morning in the afternoon. Mr. Huang invited several gentlemen for this, but no matter how many methods the gentlemen tried, he could not make Huang Lang remember a little.
When Huang Lang was fifteen years old, a Mr. Yin and Yang came to the Huang family. The Yin and Yang Mr. Huang said to Yuanwai: "The reason why the noble master is so arrogant is that the two sycamore trees in the courtyard of the palace are on the eye of the earthly energy, suppressing the earthly energy of the palace. The noble master cannot be influenced by the earthly energy, so he naturally lacks spiritual energy. Only by digging out the two sycamore trees and clearing the earthly energy can the noble master become smart and aura.
Yuanwai Huang was overjoyed when he heard this and said, "Thank you for your advice." Where are you here, go and dig out the two sycamore trees in the yard. "
Huang Lang heard this and said hurriedly, "Dad, don't dig. "
Yuanwai Huang said: "What do you know at your child's house? Only by digging out the sycamore tree can you become smart and awesome, and you will have hope for becoming an official in the future. "
The two sycamore trees in the Huang family's yard have thick trunks and lush branches and leaves. No one knows how many years they have lived. Huang Lang climbs up and down the ground to play and has regarded them as partners. How could he bear to let someone dig them out? He said to Huang Yuanwai: "Dad, if you let someone dig them out, I will die for you to see. "
Huang Yuanwai has only such a son. He is spoiled on weekdays, so Huang Lang is naturally very willful. Seeing that his son said this, Huang Yuanwai had no choice but to sigh and say, "Oh, then don't dig, God will not be destined to be an official. "
A few years passed in a blink of an eye, and Huang Lang grew to nineteen years old. It was time to talk about marriage, but because of his stupidity, he had no hope of becoming an official. Although he was handsome, those officials and the ladies of wealthy families were unwilling to marry her. Huang Yuanwai looked down on her ordinary girls. For this matter, Huang Yuanwai sighed with worries all day long.
That morning, as soon as Huang Yuanwai got up, his family ran in panic and said, "Master, it's not good. The two sycamore trees in the yard suddenly died. "
Wen Huang quickly walked to the yard to see when he heard this. Sure enough, the two sycamore trees that were still prosperous yesterday suddenly turned yellow in branches and leaves overnight, and they were probably dead.
Wen Huang looked at it and thought: Does the sycamore tree die of dying from the dead water chestnut overnight, which indicates that our Huang family will lose?
Wen Huang was depressed all day. At night, he tossed and turned and couldn't sleep. At this time, a white-haired old woman suddenly appeared in front of him.
She said to Huang Yuanwai, "Sycamore, sycamore tree withering and dying from the withering is not an ominous sign, you don't have to worry. If you want to make Huang Lang smart and aura, you can leave him alone and go east all the time, and you will definitely encounter help from immortals on the way. "After saying that, the old lady disappeared.
Yuanwai Huang knew that this was meeting a god, and he was very happy. He called Huang Lang here early the next morning, told him about what happened last night and said to him: "My son, the gods guide you to keep walking east and you can become smart and aura. You might as well set off immediately. "
Huang Lang didn't care what could be smart and aura. He just thought it would be nice to have a chance to go out for fun, so he agreed. Huang Yuanwai immediately packed some luggage for Huang Lang and sent him on the way.
Huang Lang traveled all the way and felt very happy. It was noon this day, and Huang Lang was already dry and wanted to find some water to drink. After looking around, he realized that he had already walked into a large wilderness where there was no village or shop behind him. He had no choice but to endure the hunger and continue walking forward.
After walking for a while, Huang Lang saw a woman in front of him being fetched water on the well platform, and couldn't help but be overjoyed. He hurriedly walked a few steps and wanted to go forward to ask for some water to drink.When I got closer, I realized that the woman was 28 years old, with a slim figure and beautiful eyebrows. She was such a handsome beauty. Huang Lang was so anxious that Wu was so thirsty that he was very thirsty.
The woman saw a strange man looking at him with good eyes, and couldn't help but feel shy, and said, "I'm stupid, what are you looking at?"
Huang Lang recovered and hurriedly said, "I'm a road man. I'm thirsty when I walk. I want to ask for some water from the lady."
The woman smiled and said, "You drink it."
Huang Lang hurriedly leaned over and slapped on the bucket, drank half of the bucket in one go. After drinking, Huang Lang felt a little dissatisfied, so he said, "Miss, I'll make another bucket for you." As he said that, he took the bucket and put it down the well.
Huang Lang had never done such a thing at home. He accidentally dropped the bucket into the well in a hurry, and then quickly picked up a stick to catch the bucket. Unexpectedly, it was as if someone was pulling it down the well, and the stick also fell into the well.
Huang Lang was sweating anxiously, and looked at the woman and said, "Miss, what should I do?"
The woman still smiled and said, "Young master, it doesn't matter. Just walk your way. I have a way to catch it. But you have to remember that when you move forward, don't look back."
Huang Lang had to walk forward when he heard the woman say this. After walking for a while, Huang Lang thought to himself: Where did such a handsome woman come from in this wilderness? Could it be that she is...
The more Huang Lang thought about it, the more scared she became. She couldn't help but turn around and look. It doesn't matter if she doesn't look, but she scared Huang Lang's soul away. The place where the woman fetched water just now had turned into a large tomb mound with weeds. Huang Lang was so scared that he broke out in cold sweat and hurriedly ran forward desperately.
In the evening, Huang Lang came to a big river. The river is wide and the water is fierce. Huang Lang looked left and right and saw that there was no river bridge or ferry. I thought to myself: How can I get through this? Suddenly I saw a small thatched house by the river. Huang Lang thought: Let’s spend one night here tonight, let’s talk about it tomorrow.
Huang Lang walked to the small thatched house, pushed the door open and saw an old lady with white hair inside, so he stepped forward and bowed, "Old lady, the young actor Huang Lang is a person who is walking on the road. Now it's too late, and I want to stay here for a night, don't you know if it's okay?"
The old lady said, "It's convenient to be with others, accumulate kindness and virtue, but the house is simple, and I feel wronged by Mr. Huang." As he said that, the old lady cleaned up the east room so that Huang Lang could live there.
Huang Lang asked the old lady again: "This big river is so wide, how can we pass it?"
The old lady said: "Young Master Huang, don't worry, you will pass it naturally."
After a while, the old lady prepared the meal for Huang Lang to eat. Huang Lang sat down and was about to eat when the door opened with a creak, and a young woman walked in. With the dark light, Huang Lang recognized that the woman was the one who was fetching water by the well during the day.
Huang Lang was so scared that he pointed at the woman and shouted: "She, she is a ghost."
The old lady said, "This is my goddaughter Tong'er, how could it be a ghost?"
The woman also smiled and said, "Young Master, ghosts have no shadows. Look at whether I have any shadows, and you will know if I am a ghost."
Huang Lang hurriedly looked down and saw that the woman had a shadow. Then he relaxed a little, but he still asked in confusion, "What's the matter during the day..."
The old lady stopped him and said, "Young Master Huang, don't ask, you will understand everything at that time."
The woman stayed for a while and said, "Young Master Huang, don't ask anything."
The woman stayed for a while and said goodbye and left. The old lady said to Huang Lang: "Young Master Huang, this woman was my goddaughter Tong'er just now, and she lived in the mountain in front. She is already seventeen years old this year and has not yet betrothed by others. If the young master doesn't dislike her, how about you promise her to her?"
Huang Lang heard that there were such good things, so he hurriedly kowtowed and thanked her: "Then thank you, old lady."
The old lady helped Huang Lang up and said, "Since Mr. Huang agreed, Tong'er will come to ask you to her place for dinner tomorrow at noon, but I want to tell you that no matter how delicious her food is, you should not eat it."
At noon the next day, Tong'er indeed came to ask Huang Lang to go to her place for dinner.Huang Lang naturally went there happily. When I arrived at Tonger's house, the rich dishes had already been arranged. Tong'er smiled and let Huang Lang take his seat. Huang Lang remembered the old lady's words and didn't even dare to move the chopsticks.
Tong'er smiled and said, "Why don't Mr. Huang eat it? Did my godmother tell you something? Since that's the case, then you can eat a bowl of noodles." As he said that, Tong'er brought a bowl of noodles to Huang'er.
Huang Lang thought that it would be too much for people to eat without eating, so he took the noodles and ate them.
Back in the old lady's thatched house, the old lady asked him, "Young Master Huang, what did you eat with my goddaughter?"
Huang Lang said, "I only ate one bowl of noodles."
The old lady said, "It's not good." Then she tied Huang Lang's feet and turned around and hung it down on the beam.
The old lady said, "Young Master Huang, close your eyes and I will rub your stomach."
Huang Lang closed his eyes, and the old lady started rubbing his stomach.
Huang Lang felt something long was rubbed out of his mouth. He secretly opened his eyes and found that it was a big long worm more than three feet long. Huang Lang was so scared that he fainted. When he woke up, more than a dozen long insects were already lying on the ground.
Huang Lang asked the old lady with lingering fear: "This, what's going on?"
The old lady said: "This is all the weird things made by Tong'er. She turned these long insects into noodles for you to eat, just to scare you."
was just talking, when Tong'er pushed the door in and saw Huang Lang, "Young Master Huang was frightened. It was helpless to let the young master frighten out of helplessness. Please forgive me. In order to apologize to the young master, please come to my place for a meal tomorrow."
At noon the next day, Tong'er came to ask Huang Lang to have a meal again. There was no dish this time, only a plate of dumplings. Huang Lang was still thinking about what happened yesterday and never dared to put down his chopsticks.
Tong'er smiled and said, "Young Master Huang, I'm still scared, so I'll eat it for you first." As he said that, he took a dumpling and put it in his mouth to chew it, and the fragrance of the dumplings immediately emanated.
Huang Lang couldn't help but pick up the chopsticks when he smelled the fragrance, picked up a dumpling, put it in his mouth, chewed it, and swallowed it when he felt it was very fragrant, and then took the second one. The more I ate, the better it was. Huang Lang ate all the dumplings in anger.
Back to the old lady, the old lady asked him again, "Young Master Huang, what did you eat this time?"
Huang Lang said, "I ate a plate of dumplings."
The old lady said, "You are fooled again, let me rub your stomach again." As he said that, Huang Lang was hung on the beam and rub his stomach again.
I saw toads popping out of Huang Lang's mouth. Huang Lang fainted again in fear.
After waking up, the old lady said, "Okay, Tong'er won't scare you anymore, she will send you across the river tomorrow."
The next day, Tong'er came with an umbrella, and she said to Huang Lang, "Young Master Huang, now I will put you in this umbrella and take you across the river."
Tong'er opened the umbrella and closed it, and Huang Lang went into the umbrella. Tong'er walked out the door with the umbrella and flew up.
When he flew to the middle of the river, Tong'er suddenly opened the umbrella, and Huang Lang fell into the river with a "thump". Huang Lang was frightened by the sudden incident and screamed in fear: "Tong'er, help me!"
didn't know that a mouth of water was poured into his mouth. Huang Lang struggled in a hurry in the water, but Tong'er ignored him and flew to the other side of the river, looking at Huang Lang struggling desperately in the water with a smile. It was not until he saw that Huang Lang couldn't support him anymore that Tong'er flew over and fished him up and put him on the shore. Huang Lang was already scared to death at this time, and his whole body was as limp as a pool of mud.
At this time, the old lady suddenly appeared. She stroked Huang Lang's head with her hands, and Huang Lang suddenly became like a good person again.
The old lady said, "Young Master Huang, it's really out of helplessness that I'll scare you four times, because only in this way can you become smart and aura."
Huang Lang asked, "Who are you?"
The old lady said, "We were the two sycamore trees in your yard. I have lived for more than 700 years, and Tonger has lived for six hundred years.We were just right in the eyes of the earthly energy of your Huang family. We were influenced by the earthly energy every year, and with the essence of picking the sun and the moon, we gradually gained energy. But we do not understand the method of becoming an immortal and enlightened, so we cannot transform into human form for a long time.
Later one night, two drunk immortals passed by Huangjia Town. When they were tired of walking, they descended from the clouds to our branches to rest. The two of them used the excitement of drinking to brag about the secrets of becoming immortals and becoming immortals. They didn't want us to listen to them, so we practiced according to what they said, and finally became immortals and turned into human form. Our Genshin Impact leaves the branches and trunks, so the branches and leaves turn yellow overnight.
The reason why we try to make you smart and aura is because you saved our lives when you were fifteen. If your father had digged the tree as Mr. Yin and Yang said, we would not have survived because we had not yet practiced to become immortals. Fortunately, you tried your best to dissuade your dad. We survived, so we want to repay you. You have been foolish since childhood, not because we suppressed the earthly energy of your family, but because the seven spiritual orifices in your mind only have three orifices, and there are still four of them. The spiritual orifice can only be opened through scaring. If you are spoiled at home, you will not be frightened, so we want to let you come out and try to frighten you. After four frightened times, the seven spiritual orifices in your mind have been cleared, and you have drunk the water from the Linghe River. Not only have you become smart and aura, but you have the magical power that you can never forget. "
Huang Lang heard this and bowed and said, "Thank you two for saying this. "
The old lady pulled Tong'er over and said to Huang Lang: "Now I will entrust Tong'er to you. After you get married, she can teach you articles, and you can go to Beijing to take the exam and will win the top scorer in the future. Now that the matter has been done, I am going to travel around. "After saying that, the old lady disappeared suddenly.
Huang Lang turned around and looked at Tong'er who was as beautiful as a flower, and was extremely happy. He said to Tong'er, "Tong'er, let's go too. "
Tong'er said embarrassedly: "Young Master Huang, it's not convenient for us to walk together. Why don't you let me get into the umbrella and take me away. Also, if you walk not far away, you will arrive at a town by the sea. There is a Mr. Liu in the town. He wants to sell his house. I will give you a square scarf. Then you go to the roadside to pick a few big stones and wrap it up and give it to Mr. Liu. He will sell the house to you, and then we will get married there. "After saying that, Tong'er suddenly got into the umbrella, Huang Lang walked forward with an umbrella.
After walking for a long time, Huang Lang really came to a town. He asked the people in the town about Liu Yuanwai's residence, and someone pointed it out to him. Huang Lang picked up a few big stones on the side of the road, wrapped them in a square scarf, and walked into Liu Yuanwai's house.
Liu Yuanwai was bargaining for the price of a house with a few people at home. Huang Lang handed over the square scarf and said, "Mr. Liu, I bought this house. "
Mr. Liu took it and opened it. He saw that there were several large pieces of yellow gold inside. He couldn't help but be overjoyed, "Okay, okay, I'll sell the house to you, and my maid and servant are also for your use. "
entered the house, and Tong'er came out of the umbrella. That night, the two of them got married. After
got married, Tong'er began to teach Huang Lang to read imperial examination articles. Huang Lang had the magical power to remember everything he should learn in a few days.
On that day, Tong'er said to Huang Lang: "The Beijing exam is about to be held, so you can go to Beijing to take the exam quickly. ”
Huang Lang said: “Okay, I just don’t know what the result will be. "
Tonger said: "You don't have to worry, you will definitely win the top scorer. "
After Huang Lang left, Tong'er felt a little lonely at home. That day she asked her maid to accompany her to the beach to relax. Besides, there was a pirate in the sea, who was a lustful person. When he saw Tong'er, he became evil and ordered his subordinates to steal Tong'er.
How could he know that Tong'er was not a mortal. The thugs he sent to steal people were beaten by Tong'er and rolled back with a blue face. The pirate was angry when he saw it and went to steal Tong'er himself, but was defeated by Tong'er. The pirate was good at using hidden weapons, and he hit every 72 silver needles.The silver needle is as thin as a cow's hair, and it cannot be taken out when it hits the human body. When the seventy-two days have passed, the human will die of bleeding from the seven orifices.
Besides, the pirate was defeated by Tong'er, and he couldn't help but have evil thoughts. While Tong'er was unprepared, he secretly sent out the silver needle, and seventy-two silver needles were not falling into Tong'er's body.
The pirate laughed wildly and said, "Haha, if you don't follow me, I will let you die. Now you have been hit by my seventy-two silver needles. After 72 days, you will die of blood in your seven orifices. Even if Hua Tuo is reborn, you will not be able to save you."
Tong'er was very angry when she saw that the pirate was so vicious, so she cast a spell to beat him to death.
When I got home, Tong'er said to the maid, "I was hit by a silver needle and could not be taken out. Only by boiling it with water can I cook the silver needle. Now you fill the pot with water. I enter it. You have to cover the pot tightly, not leave a gap, and then burn it day and night. You can cook a silver needle every day. When the silver needle is melted, I will come out. But you must remember that within these 72 days, you must not open the lid of the pot, as soon as I open it, I will die."
The maid filled the pot with water, and Tong'er entered it. The maid covered the lid of the pot, fearing that it was not strict, so she found a large cauldron to press the lid down. Then, the maids and servants took turns to burn the fire. On the 71st day of the burn, Huang Lang came back. Huang Lang went to Beijing to take the exam this time and was the top student in the high school list of Jinban. He was named the top scholar by the emperor's imperial pen and was officially named the Grand Secretary of Longtu Pavilion. This time I came back to take my family to Beijing to take up my job.
Huang Lang returned home and did not see Tong'er's face, so he asked the maid: "Where did the young lady go?"
The maid said: "The young lady was hit by a pirate with 72 silver needles. She told us to put her in the pot and cook for 72 days. She would be fine. Now it has been 71 days. One day she will be able to come out."
Huang Lang said: "How can this work? Let me see what it is like to cook."
As he said, he was about to lift the lid of the pot. The maid hurriedly stopped him: "Young master cannot do it. The young lady has ordered that you must not open the lid of the pot within these 72 days. Once she opened it, she will die."
Huang Lang waved his hand and said: "You all go down, I'll set the fire." The maids all retreated.
Huang Lang hurriedly lay on the lid of the pot and shouted: "Tong'er, Tong'er, how are you?" After calling for a long time, he could not hear Tong'er's voice inside, and only the "gurgling" sound of water boiling.
Huang Lang thought to himself, it’s over, Tonger must have been cooked to death. He hurriedly moved the tripod pressed on it and lifted the lid of the pot. He heard Tong'er screaming "ah" and turned into a pool of yellow water in an instant.
When Huang Lang saw this scene, he felt heartbroken and cried, "Tong'er, Tong'er, I killed you."
From then on, Huang Lang lost all his thoughts and soon became a monk. He planted sycamore trees around the temple to commemorate his beloved Tonger.
