During the Ming Dynasty period, there was a cowherd named Wu Yuchen in Xunyang . Before Wu Yuchen became a cowherd, he was a famous child prodigy in the village. He knew how to read at the age of three, chanted essays at the age of four, and was able to write poems at the age of six. Many people say that he is the reincarnation of Wenquxing and will achieve great success in the future. Unfortunately, his parents died early. In order to support himself, Wu Yuchen had to go to the home of a rich man named Zhao to herd cattle.
Since then, Wu Yuchen has become an ordinary person who is busy with life, and his literary talent is no longer there. Fortunately, Zhao Qianzhu is a good person, so he won’t be hungry.
In addition, Zhao Caizhu's son Changhao is about the same age as him and does not dislike his background. The two soon became good friends. When Wu Yuchen was idle, he would go to Changhao's study room to study with him.
But for some reason, Wu Yuchen, who originally had the ability to remember everything, could not remember the content in the book, and could not even read it at all. On the contrary, Changhao, with extraordinary literary talent and rapid progress, was awarded the title within a few years and was incredible for a moment. After
1, Changhao was very busy every day and he became less likely to play with Wu Yuchen. Wu Yuchen was depressed and could only accompany Lao Niu every day. Until this day, he met an old beggar, which completely changed his destiny.
Early this morning, Wu Yuchen pulled the cow to a stream in the back mountain as usual. After he settled the cow, he jumped into the water to catch fish, thinking of calling himself tooth sacrifice .
At this moment, he saw a figure appearing on the shore, squatting beside his clothes and flipping around. He was startled and thought someone was stealing something, so he rushed to the shore immediately. The one who turned over his clothes was an old beggar with a gray beard and a hunched figure. Wu Yuchen stepped forward and pushed it away. After checking for a long time, he realized that he had not lost anything before he felt relieved. The old beggar next to
was not annoyed, but sat down on the spot and started chatting with Wu Yuchen. What's amazing is that the strange old beggar in front of him actually knew everything about Wu Yuchen, and even his birth date and horoscope were fully expressed. Only then did Wu Yuchen realize that he had met an expert and immediately became respectful.
The old beggar saw this and smiled slightly: "Wu Yuchen, have you felt anything strange in your body recently? For example, something seems to have disappeared in your mind, or something missing in your body?" When he asked this, Wu Yuchen, who used to be careless, really felt a little abnormal. I don't know when he could vaguely feel something unknown in his body was constantly losing. The thing was a bit like water, circulating in his body, but now he can't feel it anymore.
The old beggar nodded after hearing this, but did not explain what it was. Instead, he took out three copper coins from his arms and handed them to him: "You go home tonight and bury these three copper coins under the threshold, and they will help you get your things back!"
Wu Yuchen reached out to take it and found that the three copper coins were actually cast from three different periods, which was very precious. He wanted to ask something else, but when he looked up, the old beggar had disappeared.
Wu Yuchen returned home half-believingly, and according to the old beggar, he buried the copper coins under the threshold, but he did not feel any changes. After more than half a month, he almost forgot about this.
On that day, Changhao went to the neighboring village for a social event and happened to pass by Wu Yuchen's doorstep. Thinking that he had not seen each other for many days, he decided to visit him. But as soon as he crossed the threshold and walked into the yard, he felt as if he was depressed and fell straight down. This scared Wu Yuchen and hurriedly sent him to the clinic in the town. Fortunately, it was not serious, but he was a little exhausted.
That night, Wu Yuchen was lying on the bed toss and turns and couldn't sleep. His whole body was hot, as if something was pouring into his body, and his head was swollen, as if it was about to explode. This feeling lasted until the early morning, and he fell asleep.
In his sleep, he saw the old beggar who gave him copper coins again. However, at this time, he was wearing gorgeous clothes and standing on the top of the mountain surrounded by mist, like an immortal as if he was as good as the earth. He smiled and looked at Wu Yuchen and said softly, "The thing has been taken back!" After saying that, a golden light burst out from Wu Yuchen's body. Wu Yuchen suddenly woke up from his dream, fortunately everything was a dream. But not long after, Wu Yuchen was surprised to find that the talent he had lost seemed to have come back, and he could not forget it all, and it was easy to write poems in front of him.
In contrast, Chang Hao, since he fainted at Wu Yuchen's house last time, he has become very decadent. He locked himself at home every day and has become very decadent.
Until that night, Wu Yuchen had just fallen asleep when a group of strong men rushed in and quickly controlled it. The next second, the rich master Liu and his son Chang Hao walked into the room, and behind him was a wise man in a sheepskin fur. It was only now that Wu Yuchen finally understood the truth of the matter.
It turns out that Wu Yuchen is not an ordinary person, but the reincarnation of Wenqu Star in the sky, with his own strong luck. The rich man Liu accidentally discovered this and planned to snatch Wu Yuchen's luck and impose it on his mediocre son, which made him achieve something. But for some reason, everything went smoothly until that day Changhao came to Wu Yuchen's house and all the luck he stolen disappeared.
Liu Caizhu and Changhao used many methods, but they were useless. The two of them had no choice but to do it, kill Wu Yuchen and completely take away all his luck.
Just as the two were about to take action, a loud rumbling sound suddenly came from all over the world. As a result of a swaying mountain, the three copper coins buried under Wu Yuchen's threshold actually broke out of the ground and knocked out the acquaintances in succession. The next second, the old beggar appeared in the room out of thin air. It turned out that he was not a mortal, but a mountain god here. After discovering that the fortune of Wenqu Star was taken away, he helped. After
, the mountain god took Wu Yuchen away. Before leaving, he said earnestly: "There is no shortcut to success in the world. You can only obtain it through your own efforts. It is not your own. No matter how hard you work, it cannot become your own thing!"
Unfortunately, Changhao did not understand this sentence. After this incident, he became depressed and died soon after. As for Wu Yuchen, he was sent thousands of miles away by the mountain god, and he did not let down the mountain god's painstaking efforts. He worked while studying, and eventually achieved fame and lived a happy life.
