Anecdote

Li Liuzhe, the son of a farmer in Xiajiang Village, is a handsome young man with a gentle personality.

There were several cows in his home. One day, he grazed the mountains and became sleepy, so he leaned against a tree and fell asleep. He dreamed that a man in Tsing Yi was fighting with a mountain monster at the foot of the slope.The man in Tsing Yi has a jade appearance and snow skin, looks like a woman, and is squandering like the wind with a sharp sword.However, the monster's body is pitch-black, its head is as big as a urn, its teeth are exposed like blades on its lips, and it also has a pair of giant feet sunken deep in the soil, which is extremely fierce.Li Liu was shocked, he hid behind a tree and peeped at it, he saw that the man in Tsing Yi was gradually exhausted, bleeding from all seven orifices.

"Haha, you immortals, let me die today!" The mountain monster was very happy and shouted.

The man in Tsing Yi spat and said: "The mountain monster is arrogant and creates all kinds of evil karma. It cannot be stopped unless it perishes!"The mountain monster couldn't avoid it, blood flowed from his cavity, and he wailed miserably, the sound shook the forest valley.

Not long after, he fell to the ground and died after being surprised, and the man in Tsing Yi was also fainted, panting loudly.Li Liu hesitated again and again, and wanted to go forward to save him, when he saw a stream of light, rushing straight to the door, approaching suddenly, but there was no trace of the man in Tsing Yi.

"Hey! What's entangled me!" Throbbing and losing my soul, I didn't feel dizzy.

When his parents found out that he hadn't returned for a long time, they called the villagers to search for him. When they reached the shaded place in the deep mountain, Li stayed lying on the ground unconscious.He rushed home and poured several bowls of ginger soup, Su, and asked what happened.

Li Liushang was young, he didn't dare to speak, and felt pain on his face, so he just wept.When asked again, Zeyun said, "I had a strange dream." So he didn't answer.

Helpless, the parents sighed, but only after repeated reassurance.However, most of the villagers whispered: "There are so many strange things in the mountains, I'm afraid I will be lost."

After a few days of peace, the pain on his face gradually disappeared, so he let go of his doubts and forgot about it.On the sixth day of June, on his birthday, food and wine were prepared at home. Li Liu first tasted strong wine, and when he saw the redness on his face, he changed it.His mother was shocked: "Who is attached to my son!" Gai's face is different, sometimes it is the same, and sometimes it turns into another handsome person.Li Liu was also sweating and stained his clothes, he rushed to the well to look at the water, and there was a faint face floating on his body, just like the man in Tsing Yi he saw that day.

Seek medical attention quickly, check his pulse, or say: "It's not a disease." No decoction is left.

His parents hid their faces and wept bitterly. In the middle of the night, when the villagers heard about it, they also came to the door to ask questions.

He also invited the Taoist from the city to come, still shaking his head and saying nothing, but with a note in the book, it said: "There are many faces, and the number of days is long." Then he waved his sleeves and left.The crowd didn't understand what it meant, they couldn't help it, so they all dispersed.The medicine stone didn't work, and the method of exorcising evil spirits didn't work. The Li family was in panic, so they kowtowed in the surrounding temples, begging for mercy from heaven.

However, since then, others have seen Li Liu's facial features, he looks like a young man during the day, but changes suddenly and erratically at night, and they don't know if one person or two are gathered together.

Some urchins jokingly said: "Li Jiazi's face is double, and day and night alternate like a demon."

After more than half a year like this, because of being entangled with this thing, he gradually lost weight and went out of the house all day.Every time I look at myself in the mirror, I seem to meet a man in Tsing Yi in a trance: "The immortal is here!" I love his handsomeness, and I don't know how to sit for a long time.

In the middle of a certain summer night, a thief sneaked in with a knife, coveted Li Liu's beauty, evil thoughts suddenly arose, and tied him up with his parents.Laughing and wanting to touch his cheek with his hand, he suddenly saw a person's face floating up, bleeding from seven orifices, like an evil ghost seeking his life.The thief was so frightened that he fell to the ground and died on the spot.

However, the human face is immortal, and after it fades away, it turns into a man in Tsing Yi, with no blood stains, just like what he saw in a dream.Rescuing Li Liu and his parents, he sighed and said: "I have to take advantage of your flesh and blood to recuperate for many days. I am really ashamed." its body.

Li's parents were suspicious at first, but later they were relieved. Although there were criticisms, they were still grateful for their kindness.The man in Tsing Yi was not polite, but he nodded and went away, holding the corner of his clothes in Li Liu's hand.When he frowned and asked, his face was flushed and he looked like a shy person.Ask again, tears dripping down like rain again, unwilling to let go.But suddenly realized: "Your heart pleases me?"

The more you bow your head, the more you can't speak.

"Fool!" His parents stepped forward angrily, pulling Li Liu back with both hands.Seeing this, the man in Tsing Yi seemed to be smiling but not smiling: "My son and I are destined, but in the world, it is better to marry a wife and continue to have future generations... No, no!" Then he walked away.

From then on, Li Liu was obsessed with it, and sometimes lay in bed and sighed, or touched his face in the mirror, and burst into tears.Parents comforted him, and began to remember what the Taoist said that day, not knowing that the destiny was playing tricks like this, and there was no trace.However, he refused to marry a wife in the end, and laughed like crazy during the day, but remained silent in the middle of the night.

"Go! If there is a long-term fate, it is not for us to understand." Forced to go to the mountain, he begged the man in Tsing Yi to come back.

At that time, the moon is as bright as the day, the birds in the forest sing suddenly, the wind blows, and the fragrance is fragrant.Hearing the sound of flutes and drums in the air, a man in Tsing Yi, beautiful and graceful, came from the clouds and left slowly hand in hand with Li Liu. "The fate of the world is broken, so don't worry about it all the time. If you are destined to have many children, you can achieve fame." After speaking, his body disappeared in the clouds, and he will never reappear.

There is a saying: "Don't say that clouds and mud are different, immortals are also deeply emotional."

Some people in the back village lost their way and saw two immortals passing by in the clouds and mist.When he came back, he told everyone that he looked like Li Liu.And his mother was pregnant, fifteen months pregnant, and gave birth to three sons, all of whom were intelligent.
