During the Ming Dynasty, there was a mason named Zhang Tianbao in Kuizhou. He was abandoned by his biological parents since childhood. It was thanks to his adoptive father, Old Man Zhang, who saved his life.
Old man Zhang is a master of superb skills and knows some techniques. Zhang Tianbao learned skills from his adoptive father since he was a child and practiced the unique skills of making clay men.
When Zhang Tianbao was sixteen years old, the old man Zhang died of illness. Before his death, he called his son Zhang Tianbao to the bed and gave him a clay man. He also told him to take the clay man with him and not to show him. If he encounters something strange, he will take the clay man to find the old Taoist in the nearby Taoist temple. Zhang Tianbao replied to his adoptive father's words in tears.
In a blink of an eye, it has been four years since Old Man Zhang passed away, and Zhang Tianbao is also at the age to marry a wife. He is born tall, handsome, and skilled, and is a perfect man in the eyes of many women.
On this day, the famous wealthy family in the town suddenly sent a housekeeper to visit Zhang Tianbao, saying that their head Huanxue fell in love with him and wanted to get married with him.
Wang family moved to the town two years ago. The head of the family was an orphan named Huanxue. Huanxue is born as beautiful as a flower and has a huge family property. People in the town say that if anyone marrys Huanxue, he will no longer have to work hard for life.
Zhang Tianbao had seen Huanxue from afar and had been in love with her for a long time. He never thought that such a good thing would fall on him. He agreed to the marriage without thinking, and soon became a kinship with Huanxue and moved into the Wang family's house.
After marriage, Zhang Tianbao and Huanxue had a sweet time, but soon, Huanxue became tired of Zhang Tianbao. She forced Zhang Tianbao to sign Heli and swept him out.
Zhang Tianbao was kicked out and felt very sad. He was as wealthy as a passing cloud. He didn't care, but he was sincere to Huanxue, and Huanxue's indifference to him later completely hurt his heart. Instead of remarrying his wife, he practiced his skills hard, trying to forget the emotional pain.
Huanxue was very chic. After she divorced Zhang Tianbao, she went out for a trip. It was not until a year later that she returned to the town. It is said that when she came back, she had four or five men with her. Upon hearing this news, Zhang Tianbao couldn't help but feel ache.
Hanxue just returned to town a few days ago, the housekeeper of the Wang family sent an invitation to Zhang Tianbao, saying that Huanxue was about to remarry. She thought of her ex-husband, so she decided to invite Zhang Tianbao to the wedding banquet.
Zhang Tianbao felt suffocated when he received the invitation and immediately wanted to tear it to pieces, but he felt unwilling to accept it. He wanted to see what kind of person Huanxue remarried to, so he gritted his teeth and accepted the invitation and went to attend her wedding banquet on the day of Huanxue's wedding.
Huanxue's wedding banquet only invited one table of guests. Zhang Tianbao sat at the table with his head down, feeling secretly sad. He felt that all the guests at his deskmate had arrived, but he did not look up, but played with a ball of mud in his palm repeatedly. This is his habit. Whenever he feels upset, he will keep pinching clay figures to relieve his boredom.
Soon, the emcee's voice rang out and said that the bride and groom were about to enter the venue. Zhang Tianbao looked up suddenly, wanting to see what the groom looked like.
He stretched his neck and looked around, and from the corner of his eyes he accidentally glanced at the appearance of the guests at the same table, and couldn't help but feel shocked. He found that all the seven people sitting at the same table with him looked exactly the same as him.
Some of them are young Confucian scholars, some are old women with white hair, and a beautiful girl with light clothes. Whether they are men or women, old or young, they all have the same face as Zhang Tianbao.
Zhang Tianbao felt creepy when he saw this scene, but those people were unaware of it and were still talking and laughing.Zhang Tianbao became alert secretly. He thought of a magic he had learned from his adoptive father and had an idea.
He pinched the mud ball in his hand into a human shape and placed it on the stool. He himself squatted under the table when everyone was not paying attention, and then used magic to turn the mud man into his appearance and sit at the table.
After a while, the bride and groom entered the house. Zhang Tianbao quietly lifted the tablecloth and looked at them. He found that the groom had the same face as him.
Zhang Tianbao had not had time to be surprised, and saw the groom reach out and the seven people sitting on the table fell to the ground one after another, and white smoke flew out of their bodies. Then, the white smoke penetrated into the groom's body.
The groom saw "Zhang Tianbao" sitting at the table without moving, frowned and walked to the table. When he found out that Zhang Tianbao was a clay figure, he was furious.
Zhang Tianbao, who was hiding under the table, saw Huanxue coming to comfort the groom, and couldn't help but feel cold in his heart, knowing that they must be birds of a feather. At this time, he thought of what his adoptive father told him before his death, so after Huanxue and others left, he hurried to the nearby Taoist temple and found the old Taoist.
When the old Taoist saw Zhang Tianbao, he poured him a cup of tea without rushing, asking him not to worry and wait a little longer. Zhang Tianbao waited for a while and saw Huanxue and the groom also rushed to the Taoist temple.
Zhang Tianbao was about to question the old Taoist what was going on, but the old Taoist raised his hand to stop him and then told the reason.
It turns out that neither Huanxue nor the groom are humans, but Snake Demon with a thousand years of cultivation. They are originally a couple.
More than 20 years ago, when they were experiencing the heavenly tribulation, the male snake accidentally lost one soul and seven souls. When Zhang Tianbao was young, that soul merged into his body, allowing him to resurrect from the dead, and also changed his appearance. Old Man Zhang witnessed this scene with his own eyes and adopted Zhang Tianbao. And the Seven Souls became seven people, scattered everywhere, that is, the seven people Zhang Tianbao met at the wedding banquet this day.
So, it is not those people who look exactly the same as Zhang Tianbao, but Zhang Tianbao and the others look exactly the same as male snakes.
Before, Huanxue married Zhang Tianbao to test whether he was that soul. Then she went out to find the seven souls for her husband.
After the old Taoist said that, he asked Zhang Tianbao that he had passed the clay man that his adoptive father, Old Man Zhang, gave him before his death, and sighed, "Parents are far-reaching in their children. Your adoptive father had long anticipated this situation, so he pinched this special clay man for you to carry with you. Over the years, the clay man has absorbed enough energy from you and can replace that soul to support your life."
After the old Taoist said that, he waved his hand to draw a white mist from Zhang Tianbao's body, gave Huanxue, and then smashed the clay man and put a milky white gas from the clay man into Zhang Tianbao's body.
Huanxue and his wife thanked the old man repeatedly, and then left. Before leaving, Huanxue said to Zhang Tianbao, "You fell in love with me at the beginning, and were also influenced by my husband's soul. Now that you have completed your soul, you can find another person you like and live a good life."
Later, Zhang Tianbao gradually got out of his love for Huanxue. He married another girl he liked a few years later and lived a stable life.
