Xian Dao Shen couldn't believe his ears after hearing this. There are still people in this world who don't want benefits for themselves, but always think about doing good for others.
Xian Dao Shen didn't understand and didn't think much about it, and agreed wholeheartedly.
"Auntie, don't worry. At midnight tonight, I will do something to make all the people who were scared recover. I will also build a three-mile bluestone road from east to west in your village. From now on, your feet will not get wet in rainy days or slippery in snowy days. , and asked my aunt to release the little god."
When Xiu'er heard this, she nodded and loosened the foot wrap.
Suddenly, a gust of cold wind suddenly rose from the ground, and the Taoist God disappeared without a trace.
Early the next morning, people discovered that people who were frightened by Xian Dao Shen were miraculously healed overnight. Moreover, those who got up early to work also discovered that the mud road at the entrance of the village was gone, and instead there was a road made of bluestone slabs, which was clean without even a single pebble.
Later, in order to commemorate Xiu'er's bravery and kindness, people named the road Xiangxiu Road and erected a monument to commemorate it.
Okay, now that we’ve finished telling the folklore, let’s talk about the story of the Xiandao God in our village.
And this story just happened to me.
That was in the 1970s, before the distribution of property to each household. At that time, commune members still existed in the form of small teams, that is, a large team had several small teams, and then everyone worked together and worked together, and each team had its own production Captain and accountant.
Our village is divided into six teams. Each team has its own land that needs to be sown, as well as livestock and some working tools assigned to its team by the big team. In addition, each team also has its own yard, which is used for harvesting wheat in summer and stacking and drying corn, millet, beans, etc. in autumn. Each team has it, but the area is different.
That night, a projection team from the countryside came to our village to show the movie "Lin Hai Xue Yuan".
At that time, there was an extreme lack of cultural life in rural areas. Although electricity was already available in the village at that time, the electrodes were not used normally. Sometimes the electricity stopped several times a night, and sometimes there was no call for several days. Therefore, people who had worked all day had an early dinner. Then get ready to close the door and go to sleep.
At this time, the loudspeaker of the brigade suddenly announced that a projection team from the countryside would come to our village to show a movie tonight, and the small mountain village suddenly became excited.
The adults were busy preparing small benches, and the children cheered and rushed to tell each other that they would watch a movie together.
The place where the movie was played was the venue of the first team, at the southernmost part of the village, and my home was from the fifth team, and my home was in the northeast corner of the village, which was a bit far away. My father had already fallen asleep after a long day's work when he heard the announcement from the brigade. My brother Daliang was already the main labor force in the village at that time. When he was twenty years old, he was called by the captain to go to the team's livestock house to process and cut grass. He could earn three centimeters a night.
I was fourteen or fifteen years old at the time. After school, I often worked in the team with my father and brother.
That night, my mother and I finished cleaning up and got ready to go to bed.
At this time, the loudspeaker of the brigade was about to play a movie, "Lin Haixueyuan...it is located in the first team's field room."
This made me extremely happy. There are not many movies shown in the village a year. This time they also showed the forest and snowy fields. I must watch it carefully.
"Mom, Mom, I'm going to see a movie. Are you going?"
"I, I won't go. Your father is also asleep. I still have to wait for your brother to come back. You can go and see it. Remember to come back early after watching it. You have to get up early to go to work tomorrow."
"Hey, well, who are you going with? Go ahead and call Xiaoqiang so that you can have company."
I ran out of the yard amidst my mother's instructions, thinking in my heart that I had to go quickly, because if I got there late, I wouldn't be able to watch the opening.
The rural houses in the past were not like the rows of flat houses now. Halfway up the mountain in the ravine, they follow the slope. Above this house, above that house is another family's cave dwelling, and above your own house is someone else's yard. , but no one lives in a slightly flat place, because no one can afford to build a house, and digging cave dwellings saves a lot of money and time, and is warm in winter and cool in summer. Therefore, everyone in the entire village lives in cave dwellings. The few large Qingma tile-roofed houses in the village belonged to the landlords and rich peasants in the village before liberation. After liberation, they were also given to poor and lower-middle peasants who had no houses to live in.
While listening to my mother's instructions, I left the house without leaving a cigarette and ran towards Xiaoqiang's house. Xiaoqiang's family lives to the south of my home, and the two families are more than 30 meters apart.
"Xiaoqiang, Xiaoqiang, call Xiaoqiang's name loudly while running like this."
Hey, no one agreed. I called twice more, but no one responded. I stood outside the fence gate of Xiaoqiang's house and looked into the yard. It was dark and there was no light at all. There was no one in the house, and there was a stick pushing against the fence door from the inside. Xiaoqiang and his family should have all gone to watch a movie.
I had no company, so I could only walk to the screening room of Team 1 alone.
To go from my house to the No. 1 team screening place, we have to walk through the east bank where his family lives, go down a sloping slope, pass the No. 3 team's threshing floor, and then come to the center of the village, a relatively flat dirt road.
On the right side of the dirt road is the village's primary school, and further ahead is the village's oil shop. On the left is a blacksmith shop and scattered residents. At that time, there were no street lights in the village, and everything was dark. Occasionally, through the fences and low courtyard walls, faint lights could be seen, like stars twinkling, and from time to time, one or two dogs could be heard. The cry.
I was born and raised in the village and grew up in the village. Whether I was in school or working in the team, I ran all over the village. I am very familiar with the village. I can walk to the screening room of the first team with my eyes closed.
At this time, there was a faint moonlight in the sky, and I walked faster. Turning west, we stepped onto the roof of the cave dwelling of Wang Laocai, the landowner before liberation, and then went down a small slope in the winding area, and then passed the Machi in the village, which is the screening room of the First Team, another half mile away. The screening venue is within walking distance.
I walked quickly, and my ears seemed to hear the sounds coming from the movie screen.
Just as I was thinking excitedly, I turned west and suddenly found someone vaguely walking in front of me, about a hundred meters away.
Because it was night, I couldn't see clearly. This person seemed to be holding a lamp, and there was a weak light. When I looked at it, I saw someone running forward faster and shouting: "Hey Hey, who's in front of you? Wait for me, let's catch up."
"You're going to see a movie, I'm going too, let's go together." I shouted, speeding up and chasing after him. The people in front didn't seem to hear my shout, and they still walked leisurely with their lanterns.
Just like that, I chased behind me hurriedly and slowly, calling out to someone, wait for me, someone, wait for me, but the people in front didn't seem to hear it, and generally kept walking leisurely. He had no intention of stopping.
