The story takes place in the Song Dynasty Zhenzong period, Yangwu CountyThere was a woman named Ye Niang. Ye Niang's husband was named Yao Dasheng, and he was an honest woodcutter. Once when Yao Dasheng went up the mountain to cut firewood, he accidentally fell off the cliff, so Ye Niang became a widow. Ye Niang's beauty was well-known throughout the country. Many men were obsessed with her and asked matchmakers to propose marriage, but they were all kicked away by Ye Niang.
Ye Niang vowed to be loyal to Yao Dasheng for the rest of her life. Since then, no one has come to Ye Niang to propose marriage. Ye Niang weaves cloth at home on weekdays. She is clever and handy, and the money she sells for the cloth can not only support her own expenses, but sometimes she also uses part of her silver to help the poor people around her. Therefore, the neighbors respect Ye Niang very much.
The Yao family are not local aborigines, they were those who later fled to Yangwu County. Therefore, the Yao family's house was built in the wilderness. It looked lonely from a distance. However, there was a small road in front of the Yao family's house. Many merchants came and went to save money. Time often passes by the side of the road, so it is not too desolate. Ye Niang simply opened a noodle shop at the door. Firstly, she could feed the merchants, and secondly, she could increase her income.
One summer night, it started to rain heavily, and Ye Niang was about to close up for a rest. At this time, a wandering monk came from a distance. The monk put his hands together and asked Ye Niang for a meal. Ye Niang was usually the most kind-hearted, and she was especially respected by monks and Taoists, so she quickly cooked a bowl of noodles for the monk.
The monk saw that Ye Niang was beautiful, so he had evil thoughts and pretended to say: "The poor monk is a traveling monk. I want to stay in your house for a night. Is it possible?" Ye Niang wanted to refuse, but it was really windy and rainy outside. Ye Niang thought that the monk was a monk, and the world had already seen through it, so she thought it would be okay to stay with him for the night.
So Ye Niang vacated a room for the monk to live in, while she lived in a room next to the monk. At midnight, the monk stood up quietly, took out a stick of incense, lit it and threw it into Ye Niang's room. About a quarter of an hour later, the monk noticed that Ye Niang was unconscious, so he opened the door and walked in.
When the monk came to the bed in the dark, he just untied his clothes and was about to do it, but he didn't expect Ye Niang to pinch his neck. At this time, the oil lamp in the house was lit, and the monk saw that Ye Niang's face was covered with down, and she looked very scary. Then Ye Niang said: "You are the hundredth one!" The monk was choked so hard that he couldn't breathe and struggled and said: "Let me go, why are you the hundredth one!"
Ye Niang said: "Now you also want to Reported to the underworld, I simply let you die to understand that I was the royal cat in front of the Buddha, because I heard it. I took a nap during the period and let a mouse steal the lamp oil in front of the Buddha. The Buddha was so angry that he knocked me down to the mortal world and asked me to catch a hundred rapists, thieves and adulterers. Counting you, I can catch exactly one hundred. Returned to heaven to resume his life. "
It turns out that the monk's name was Hui Wan, who originally became a monk in Jiuhua Temple, but was later expelled from the temple for molesting female pilgrims. After monk Hui Nian came down from the mountain, he simply felt at home, dressed in monk's clothes and swindled around. Sometimes kind-hearted women would stay at their homes, and he would seize the opportunity. Those women were afraid of making a fool of themselves, so not only did they not dare to show off, they even gave Hui Nian money in the end. The monk kept silent, so the monk Hui Nian became more and more aggressive. Unexpectedly, he fell into the hands of Ye Niang today.
Monk Huiwan wanted to escape but it was too late. Ye Niang used both hands to twist his head off. Then Ye Niang turned into a white light and flew into the sky and disappeared. At that time, a passing businessman hid behind Mrs. Ye's house because of abdominal pain. He happened to see this scene clearly. The merchants quickly went to the government to report the crime, and found out that Monk Hui Nian had indeed committed many crimes, and the wounds on his body were also caused by cat claws, so they burned Monk Hui Wan and Ye Niang's house on fire.
The people were grateful that the imperial cat had eliminated harm to the people, so they built a temple on the original site of Ye's house to worship the imperial cat. Since then, there have been few cases of rape, robbery, and sexual immorality in the local area, and the people's customs have become positive.
