span12p Although it is very hard to study, it is not famous.

One day, friends in the cultural agency had a drink together. Someone joked with him and said: "You have always been bold. If you can go to Ten Kings Hall to bring back the image of the judge on the left corridor at night, we will all pool money to invite you to drink."

There is a ten in Lingyang. In the palace of the king, the statues of gods and ghosts in the hall are all made of wood sculptures, and they are decorated like life. There is a standing judge on the left side of the corridor. His face is blue and his beard is red, looking hideous and terrifying.

Others obviously embarrassed him, Zhu Erdan stood up with a smile and walked away. After waiting for a while, they shouted outside the door: "I have invited Master Beard!" Everyone stood up. After a while, Zhu Erdan really carried the judge's idol into the room, and then spilled the wine on the ground as a memorial service.

Everyone looked at the grim-faced magistrate idol. They were trembling with fright. They sat unsteadily, so they asked him to carry them back.

Zhu Erdan poured white wine on the ground again, praying and saying: "Students are arrogant and rash, and the master will not be offended. My home is not far away.You should come to me for a drink when you are happy. I hope you don't feel strange because of our yin and yang relationship.

finished speaking, and carried it back.

the next day, everyone really pooled money to buy him a drink. In the evening, Juerdan went home half drunk, because he had not had much fun, and turned on the lights again. Drinking by himself. Suddenly someone lifted the curtain and walked in. Zhu Erdan looked up and saw that the judge was here.

Zhu Erdan stood up and said, "Ah, I'm about to die! Offended you the night before, are you here to kill me now? "The judge lifted his bushy beard, smiled and said, "No, I thanked you for your kind appointment last night, and I was free by chance tonight, so I will fulfill your appointment as a bold person.

Zhu Erdan was very happy to hear it, and he pulled the judge’s clothes and said, sit down. Then, he got up to wash the wine utensils, and ran to tell his family to prepare the drinks and dishes.

The two began to change their cups. , Toast each other before asking for names. The judge said: "My last name is Lu, I don't have a name. "Talking about the poems, Judge Lu replied very quickly. Judge Lu had a lot of alcohol, and he drank ten big glasses at once. Zhu Erdan became drunk after drinking for a whole day, and lay on the table. He fell asleep drunk.

When he woke up, the house was dimly lit, and the ghost guest had already left.

From then on, Judge Lu came here every three or two days, and the two were feeling emotional. More and more harmonious, often sleeping together. Zhu Erdan showed the manuscript of the article to the judge. The judge often used red pen to paint, saying that the writing was not good.

One night, Zhu Erdan fell asleep early after being drunk. Judge Lu was still drinking for himself. In his sleep, Zhu Erdan suddenly felt a little pain in his internal organs. When he woke up, he saw Judge Lu sitting in front of the bed.Opened his abdominal cavity, took out his stomach and intestines, and organized them one by one.

Zhu Erdan was taken aback, and said, "We have never had any grudges, why did you kill me?" Judge Lu said with a smile, "Don't be afraid, I will give you a smart heart." Then, he put his intestines and stomach into the abdominal cavity without a hassle, closed the wound, and finally tied the foot wrap around Zhu Erdan's waist.

finished the operation. Seeing judge Lu put a piece of meat on the table, Zhu Erdan asked him what it was.

Judge Lu said: "This is your heart. You are not quick to write articles, knowing that your heart is blocked. Just now I was in the underworld. I picked a good one out of thousands of hearts and gave it to you. Replace it and leave this one to fill in the missing number." After speaking, he got up and took the door and walked away.

After dawn, Zhu Erdan unwrapped the foot wrap and saw that the incision had healed, leaving only a red line on his belly. Since then, Zhu Erdan's vincent has improved greatly, no matter what the article, you can't forget it at a glance.

A few days later, I wrote an article for judge Lu to read.

Judge Lu said: "It's okay. It's just that your blessings are superficial and you can't be a high official. You can only get the township examination and the scientific examination."

Soon, Zhu Erdan won the first place in the scientific examination. First place, and won the second place in the township examination.

Lu Judge's head change

One day,Zhu Erdan led judge Lu to his home to drink. When I was slightly drunk, Zhu Erdan said: "You have done a lot of good for me by washing my bowels and stomach. There is one more thing, I want to trouble you, can I do it?"

Judge Lu asked him to I made my request.

Zhu Erdan said: "You can change your heart, and you can change your face if you want. My wife, my wife with knotted hair, is also in good shape, but her face is not very beautiful. I want to ask you to use your knife, why? How?"

Judge Lu smiled and said, "Okay, let me figure out a solution slowly."

After a few days, at midnight, Judge Lu knocked on the door. Zhu Erdan hurriedly got up, invited him into the house, lighted the light, and watched him wrap something in his shirt.

asked what was wrapped in it. Judge Lu said: "You asked me a few days ago. I went back and looked for it hard. It was hard to find. I just happened to get a beauty head. Satisfy your wishes and requirements."

Zhu Erdan took a look at his shirt, and the blood on his neck was still wet. Judge Lu urged him to enter the bedroom quickly, not to disturb the dogs. Zhu Erdan led judge Lu into the bedroom and saw his wife asleep on her side.

Judge Lu performed the head exchange technique. Zhu Erdan's wife woke up, feeling a little numb in her neck and wrinkled feeling on her chest; she rubbed her hands and rubbed some dry blood, she was very surprised. Ask the maid to fetch water and wash her face.

The maid was surprised to see her face smeared with blood. When washing his face, a basin of water was all dyed red. After washing, I looked up and looked completely different, even more surprised. The lady took a look in the mirror,Suddenly, he didn't understand what happened.

Zhu Erdan came in and told his wife about the change of head. His wife then repeatedly looked at the front end of the mirror, only to see the slender eyebrows stretched out to the sideburns, and the smiling dimples supported the cheekbones, really like the beauty in the painting. When I untied the collar, there was a circle of red lines around my neck, and the skin colors on the upper and lower sides were completely different.

Before this, Wu Yushi had a very beautiful girl. He went to visit the Palace of Ten Kings during the Lantern Festival. A rogue took a fancy to her and raped and killed the lady.

The whole family got up and parked the corpse in the hall, put their heads next to their necks, weeping and tossing all night. I waited until dawn and found that the body was still lying on the spiritual bed, but the head was nowhere to be seen.

The head mystery case

After three months of chasing, no murderer was caught. Later, the strange thing about Zhu Erdan changing his wife's head slowly spread to Wu Yushi's ears.

Wu Yushi was very puzzled, and sent an old lady to Zhu Erdan's house to check the situation, and found that Mrs. Zhu had the same face as Miss Wu. Yu Shi guessed that Zhu Erdan killed his daughter with a sorcerer, so he went to interrogate Zhu Erdan.

Zhu Erdan said: "My wife changed her head in a dream. I really don't know why. It is really wrong to say that I killed someone."

Wu Yushi didn't believe it.He went to Lingyang Mansion to sue Zhu Erdan. The prefect arrested Zhu Erdan's family for interrogation, and the confession was the same as Zhu Erdan said. The prefect has no way to make a judgment.

Zhu Erdan returned home and asked judge Lu for help. Judge Lu said: "This is not difficult, so let his daughter go back and explain the situation by herself."

That night, Wu Yushi dreamed that his daughter told him, "The daughter is by Su Xi." The Yang Danian killed by Yang Danian had nothing to do with Zhu Erdan. Zhu Erdan thought that his wife's appearance was not beautiful, and judge Lu replaced her with her daughter's head. This is the reason why her daughter's body is dead and her head is still alive in the world. I hope I don't make enemies with him."

Wu Yushi woke up and told his wife that his wife had the same dream.

They told the prefect about this situation. The prefect sent someone to investigate, and Su Xi really had Yang Danian. When he was arrested for torture, Yang Danian pleaded guilty.

Wu Yushi arrived at Zhu Erdan's house and asked to see Zhu Erdan's wife. From then on, the two became known as father-in-law and son-in-law. The two families put the head of Zhu Erdan's wife on the body of Wu Yushi's daughter, and then buried them.

Later, Zhu Erdan passed away. After his death, the ghost often returned home to bring Judge Lu to drink with him. By the way, he took care of family affairs and taught his son Zhu Wei to study.

His son is also very smart. He could write articles when he was nine years old. He was admitted as a scholar at the age of fifteen. He didn't even know about his father's death. When his son became an adult, Zhu Erdan would not go home anymore.

Zhu Wei passed the Jinshi examination at the age of twenty-five and was ordered to go to worship Xiyue Huashan,When passing by Huayin , I suddenly met an official, sitting in a gorgeous car, and the attendants rushed to the guard of honor. Zhu Wei was very surprised. Looking closely at the person in the car, it turned out that it was father Zhu Erdan.

When the father and the son met halfway, Zhu Erdan left a saber for his son, saying that wearing it would make him rich. A line of words was engraved on the knife: "Courageous desires and small desires, wisdom and desires are round and action desires."

Later, Zhu Wei's official position achieved the position of Shangshu of the Ministry of War. She gave birth to five sons, named Zhu Shen, Zhu Qian, Zhu Qi, Zhu Hun, and Zhu Shen.

One night, I dreamed that my father said to him: "The saber should be given to Zhu Hun." Zhu Wei obeyed his father's instructions and gave the sabre to Zhu Hun. Later, Zhu Hun made Zuodu Yushi, which was very famous in the court.

author Pu Songling said: “Cut off the long legs of the crane and connect the short legs of the wild ducks. People who correct them are considered absurd. People who make the first move are considered bizarre. What's more. What about opening your heart and wiping your neck and head?
