The door god stared at the scene on the screen - two bearers, one fat and one thin, carrying the official sedan of Fuzhi County, led by a squire to Liyuan Village for a rest.
Fuzhixian got down from the official sedan and sat on the doorpost in front of a house. For some reason, pieces of tiles slid down from the corner of the house and fell to pieces on the ground. The squire quickly raised his hands and said respectfully, "Master Magistrate, this house cannot accommodate a wealthy and noble person." You see, as soon as you sit down, a large piece of the tiles in the corner of the house slides down.
Fuzhixian quickly got up and left his seat, and walked to the field in front of the door. He saw that the water in the smoke pond in front of the field was constantly turbulent, and it was turbulent greatly. The fish in the pond kept jumping one by one, and It is a large leap out of the water, and there are all kinds of fish of different sizes such as carp, silver carp, grass carp, etc.
Fuzhi County understood that it was his hurried arrival that disturbed the fish in the pond. He looked at the fish that were still jumping in the pond and said calmly to the two bearers, "We can't stop here when we get up."
The squire waved his hand and persuaded politely, "Master magistrate, why do you need to get up in a hurry?" This just witnesses your blessing. Look, the fish in the pond jump up to welcome you. The fat bearer of the sedan chair also spoke up. What the squire said was true. The presence of the magistrate not only made the pear blossoms in Lihua Village shine, but also made the fish in the pond very excited.
When Fuzhi County heard this, he laughed as if his grudge was relieved, and then said, since the fish in the pond are excited because of my arrival, then I will walk around the pond bank to let the big and small fish in the pond They were all excited. As he said that, he walked towards the smoke pond. The water in the pond splashed about ten feet high, and several big fish jumped to the shore.
The thin sedan bearer walked over and picked them up one by one and strung them with a rope. He brought them to Fuzhixian and said flatteringly, "Mr. Magistrate, I will use this string of fresh fish to cook for you today."
Unexpectedly, Fuzhi County frowned and said, no, no, these fish are particularly spiritual and cannot be eaten. It is best to put them back into the pond while they are still alive. Otherwise, the feng shui of Liyuan Village will be ruined.
The thin sedan bearer panicked when he heard this, and quickly untied the fish from the bunches. However, some of them were put back into the pond with their belly turning white, and they were already dead. The squire who was accompanying Fuzhi County for a walk on the shore was from Liyuan Village. When he saw that the spiritual fish was dead and then looked at the thin sedan bearer, he felt very unhappy and muttered, "Let's see how I deal with you."
After the magistrate Fuxian returned to the county office after handling the case, the squire pulled the fat sedan bearer aside and said, I must kill that thin man.
The fat sedan bearer was shocked when he heard this. He usually had a very good relationship with the thin sedan chair bearer, so he in turn persuaded the squire, no, no. The squire said nothing and kept a straight face.
Four days later, he and a group of tribesmen controlled the thin bearer and the fat bearer, and tied a stone to each of their backs to sink them into the water. The reason for executing the two men was simple: they killed the spiritual fish in the Yanshui Pond in Liyuan Village and destroyed the Feng Shui here.
When the door god saw this, the house god took away the magic mirror. The door god asked, I still didn't see any clue. What does this have to do with hiding a knife in the calf's mouth to save the mother?
The family god said, it’s a big deal! The thin bearer and the fat bearer you saw in the magic mirror were reincarnated as cows one after another because they were angry and did not do any good deeds during their lives. The fat chair bearer became the cow mother, and the thin chair bearer became the calf of the cow mother. Because of the past life, the squire wanted to kill the thin chair bearer. The fat chair bearer interceded and dissuaded, although he did not save the life of the thin chair bearer. But the thin bearer was very grateful, and the fat bearer even risked his own life to save him.
For this reason, the calf who was reincarnated by the thin sedan bearer in this world waits for an opportunity to rescue the mother cow who was reincarnated by the fat sedan bearer. Even if it holds a knife in its mouth and the tip of its tongue is cut by the blade, it will still be willing to bleed.
Pei Shi'en was filled with emotion when he saw a calf hiding a knife to save its mother. Inspired by the animal's loyalty and filial piety, Pei Shi'en reported to the Ming Dynasty to resign and returned to his hometown of Peizhuang, a remote place in the country, to support his seventy-year-old mother. , and do one good deed every day, such as building bridges and roads, buying things to release animals, or carrying rice to the forest to feed the birds.
Many years after his mother passed away, he dreamed one night that the City God said to him, Governor Pei, congratulations. In the thirty years since your resignation, you have done ten thousand good deeds. The Emperor of Heaven, in recognition of your unparalleled good deeds, has issued an edict to confer you the title of Immortal of the Central Plains.
Pei Shien said, I do a little good deeds, why does it matter? The Emperor of Heaven has given me such grace and promotion, thank you, Emperor of Heaven. He raised his head to the sky and bowed his hands three times before stopping.
The City God then took out a few notebooks from a satchel and told him that you have done a lot of good deeds. These notebooks were recorded by the Road God. Every time you repair a bridge or a road, the Road God will give you a credit.
That book was recorded by the River God. Every time you buy something and release it into the river, the River God will mark it for you. There is also the book with a blue cover, which is recorded by the Mountain God. Every time you give rice to the forest, Bird, the mountain god will record your good deeds for you... In short, this pile of books records your good deeds. In total, there are exactly 10,000 of them.
I summarized these 10,000 good deeds and reported them to Heaven. The Heavenly Emperor was very pleased and praised you very much. He also issued an edict to confer you the title of Earthly Immortal. Congratulations! Congratulations!
Pei Shi'en shook his head slightly and said that Pei was really ashamed. How could a common man like me hold this holy position? I am really afraid of living up to the Emperor of Heaven’s ardent expectations.
You are kind-hearted and capable, so why should you let me down? The City God stuffed those notebooks back into his bag and said, not to mention that before you become an Earth Immortal, the Underworld will send you to the Charity Hall for training for half a year. After graduation, you will return to the Central Plains to take over the post of Earth Immortal. The original Earth Immortal will be promoted to Heaven. Go to the official. Let me tell you, within three days, you can take care of your funeral affairs, and I will pick you up at noon on the fourth day.
Pei Shien said, I am also in my seventies, so of course I can leave. It's just that I'm not sick... The city god smiled and said, are you still reluctant to let go of this stinky skinny? do you know? Your body is a false combination of earth, fire, water and wind. It will not last long and will become an illusion. Why bother? You will die without any illness. Before you leave, you can say this, I, Pei, seldom do bad things in my life, and do more good deeds, so I will die a good death. This can also educate a group of people.
Sure enough, at noon on the fourth day, Pei Shi'en sat on a stool in front of the door and told all the villagers who came to watch after hearing the news what the city god taught him to say. He just added one sentence, after I left, Pei Shi'en All the houses, land and property owned by our family will be distributed to poor households. These are my last words, Pei, and I ask all fellow villagers to follow them!
After finishing speaking, Pei Shien smiled with his eyes slightly closed. For a moment, it was quiet, and only his body was left on the chair. His expression was still so peaceful, but his soul drifted away.
There is a Jinse city in the Central Plains. Seven kilometers away from the outskirts of the city is a series of rolling hills running east-west. They are shaped like a saddle, so the locals call it Ma'anshan.
There is a tile-roofed house at the exit of the jungle in Shannan. There lives a young man, whose surname is Dong, a famous brand. Because Dong is a homophonic sound for shield, people nearby are used to calling him shield. When you imagine again, he is tall and thick, very burly, and he really has The majesty of the shield.
Dong Pai was alone and learned how to blacksmith in his early years from his father. Unfortunately, his father was hit in the left eye by a piece of hot iron that bounced off the anvil while blacksmithing. He bled and died because he was not rescued in time. This became a painful shadow in Dong Pai's heart, and he simply gave up his blacksmithing skills and returned home to support his mother.
However, the family was not well-off. Within a year and a half, all the savings his father had made from blacksmithing were almost spent. Fortunately, he was full of energy and had a lot of strength, so he went to the forest behind the house every day to cut firewood, bundle it and carry it to Jinse City. Selling money on the street, but also getting some pocket money.
