Once upon a time, there was a scholar Zeng and his parents who lived in a small remote village. Because he always wore a blue cloak, the whole village called him Zeng Qing. The cloak was a gift from Zeng Qing's grandmother, and he especially liked her grandmother.
One day, Zeng Qing's grandmother brought a message. The grandmother, who has been living alone, contracted the cold and was bedridden, unable to move. Grandmother lived alone in the depths of the woods. Zeng Qing's mother prepared a large basket of delicious food and instructed Zeng Qing to walk along the path to her grandmother's house.
"Be careful when you're in the woods, Zeng Qing," my mother instructed. "Walk well, don't be playful, and don't talk to strangers." Zeng Qing carried a basket and walked to her grandmother's house along the path, thinking that she would be very happy to see her grandmother soon.
However, not long after Zeng Qing walked in the wilderness, he was distracted by a few little hares. "Oh my God, such a fat rabbit ." Zeng Qing thought. "If I make a pot of rabbit meat for my grandmother, grandma will recover quickly, and mother will not be angry. Rabbit meat can help people recover when is sick." Zeng Qing convinced himself to quickly Stop without wasting time and grab a few rabbits over there.
Zeng Qing caught three little rabbits, the biggest one was making soup for grandma, and the remaining two were brought home for mother to eat. Zeng Qing said. "I believe grandmother must be very happy to see the rabbit." Zeng Qing was back on the road again, but it didn't take long for him to see something new again.
This time, the wild Ganoderma caught his attention. "Oh my God, what a fresh Ganoderma lucidum." Zeng Qing said. "Of course Mom doesn't mind if I pick some for my grandma. When they're not feeling well, Lingzhi is always the best panacea." So Zeng Qing stopped and broke some Lingzhi for his grandmother. He also tasted
personally, and sure enough, was crisp and delicious.Each Lingzhi took a bite, and they were sweet and crisp. The Lingzhi was so delicious that Zeng Qing couldn't help nodding his head. Zeng Qing said. "I'm sure that grandma will get better after eating rabbit meat and ganoderma lucidum." Zeng Qing didn't want to waste any more time, so he decided to walk the rest of the way to grandma's house. When
was about to walk halfway into the woods, Zeng Qing suddenly stopped. On the path in front of him, stood a beautiful girl , petite and moving. " hello , little Zengqing," the girl said.
"Hello." Zeng Qing didn't want to be rude, but quickly covered his mouth. "Oops—I promised my mom I wouldn't talk to strangers." "Oh, but I'm not a stranger," the girl said with a smile. "I've noticed you from the moment you stepped into the woods. I watched you catching rabbits and breaking Ganoderma lucidum. You know I feed those rabbits!"
Zeng Qing smiled embarrassedly . "Oh, I'm so sorry. My grandmother was sick and caught your rabbit in a hurry," he said. "I really didn't mean it."
"Where are you going now? Xiao Zengqing." the girl asked.
"I just want to go to my grandmother's house," Zeng Qing said. "It was because my grandmother was sick that I caught the rabbit to make up for her." "You are such a filial child," said the girl. "Where does your grandmother live?"
"Walk a little along this path into the woods," Zeng Qing said. "Actually, if I want to get home before dark, I'd better go first."
Zeng Qing said goodbye to the girl and continued walking along the path. Unbeknownst to him, the girl turned into a golden fox and ran fast through the woods beside the path to his grandmother's house before he could.
Thanks to Zeng Qing's advice, this fox is going to enjoy two delicious meals today! It found the old woman sleeping on the bed and swallowed her.By the time Zeng Qing arrived, the fox had put on his grandmother's clothes and lay on her bed like a grandmother. "Grandma, I'm Zeng Qing." He knocked on the door.
"I brought you a lot of delicious food!" "Come in, my child," replied the fox pretending to be Zeng Qing's grandmother.
Zeng Qing felt that her grandmother's illness must be more serious than he thought, because her voice was a little strange.
He walked over to his grandmother's bed and gave her a good look. Grandma's face is a little young, as if she's seen it before. "My God, your eyes are so long." Zeng Qing said.
"Good grandson, it's great to meet you," said the fox. "My God, why is the hair black?" Zeng Qing said. "Grandma hasn't seen you for a long time, come here and let grandma take a good look at you." "My God, who are you?" "You can't run away."
The fox jumped out of the bed, Zeng Qingda call. After swallowing Xiao Zengqing in one bite, he and his grandmother got into the fox's belly . After eating two people just now, the fox was so full that he could barely move. She lay back on the bed, waiting for Zeng Qing and her grandmother to be digested.
Fortunately, when Zeng Qing and grandma were still breathing, a local old Taoist priest who had been beheading demons nearby heard Zeng Qing's screams. He found the room and, seeing that the front door was still open, let himself in. The old Taoist saw the fox lying on the bed, and its belly was the fullest he had ever seen on a beast. It didn't take long for him to realize what had happened. He slashed the fox's belly with an axe and rescued Zeng Qing and grandma from the fox's belly. "Thank you very much, Taoist priest," said the grandmother.
"Zeng Qing, did you meet anyone when you came here?" Zeng Qing didn't speak; he already knew that the girl he met just now was actually a fox, and he promised his mother to concentrate on the journey and not talk to strangers.
The old Taoist laughed, killed the fox and left.
