It is said that the Taoist priest Yunyou solved the serious problem of the old turtle's nest in the village. Everyone in the village, old and young, was grateful and grateful. Mr. Hu Deshen, the squire, was recommended by the public to represent the whole village, and offered a large sum of money to the Taoist priest, but the Taoist priest refused to refuse.

Accept without taking a penny.

Everyone felt deeply sorry and insisted on inviting the Taoist priest to stay in the village for a few more days. Squire Hu Deshen also said that he could not pay a heavy fee, but it must not go against the people's will. If the Taoist priest did not stay for a few days, the villagers would not feel sorry...

Seeing that the Taoist priest had reached this point, he agreed and stayed in the village. After tea and dinner, the Taoist priest told the villagers many past events, which could be regarded as advising people to do good and preaching to save people. For the convenience of narration, the first person is used below, "

"I" is the Taoist priest's self-proclaimed name.

My family name is Chen, and I was born in troubled times. When I was a child, I was very naughty. I climbed trees to catch birds and poke their honeycombs, went into the water to catch fish and shrimps, burned and boiled the edible ones, and treated the inedible ones as toys. I killed countless creatures and never

If you consider releasing animals, you will create bad relationships and cause bad consequences.

In the summer when I was about ten years old, there was a chaos of war. There was a lack of food and drink at home. Small fish and shrimps in the water were rarely eaten. I had no choice but to go to the riverside to catch frogs and burn them.

Eat the legs.

Eating frogs is very cruel. The heads and bodies of frogs are not eaten. It is troublesome to handle and there is no meat. I took the caught frogs one by one and cut off their hind legs with a knife.

Cut them off, throw away their bodies, peel off only the frog legs, and roast them over the fire to eat...

Those frogs with their hind legs cut off were left aside by me. Although they bled a lot, they would not die immediately. They opened their eyes wide in pain and looked at me eating their legs angrily and helplessly...

In this way, I don’t know how many frog legs I have eaten, and I don’t know how many frogs I have made worse than death. I have been tortured and died of blood! In short, I catch and eat whenever I can, and slowly the frogs become more and more numerous.

If there are too few, it will be difficult to catch them.

One evening, when the weather got a little cooler, I went to the small river where frogs are often roasted, ready to indulge in meat again. Strangely enough, after searching for a long time, I didn't find a single frog.

Just when I was about to return disappointed, I found a huge frog not far away from me. If I looked carefully, I saw that the frog was as big as a sea bowl, with a green and yellow frog's back and a white belly, which looked very special in the setting sun.

Strong and plump. I was very happy. Such a fat frog is really uncommon. Looking at it, I seemed to see two frog legs that I had cut off and roasted until they were plump and delicious...

I swallowed, bent down, and slowly walked towards the big frog, preparing to catch it when the distance was about the same. Just when I was about to get close to it, it jumped suddenly and pulled away.

, it squatted there motionless again. I slowly approached it again, and it jumped up again, making me miss again...

Just like this, if I don't move forward, it won't run away; if I jump forward, it jumps forward, always keeping a distance of about ten feet from me. The more this happens, the more my desire to catch it increases, and I stand straight

He rubbed his waist, rubbed his hands, and decided not to give up until he caught it.

Unconsciously, I chased the big frog until the sun went down. I didn’t know how far I had gone. I just felt that I was covered in sweat. I stopped and looked around. I was so surprised that I almost screamed!

I have been to this place before. It's called "Laogui Slope", which is a mass grave. Usually adults don't allow children to come to this place. I heard that this Laogui Slope is very evil. Adults who don't have a hard life can come here.

After that, it’s easy to have nightmares and narcolepsy when you go back.

Just when I was about to turn around and run away, I found two frogs appearing next to me. The two frogs were as big as a basin. Their eyes were very bright, but their eyes were full of anger and weirdness.

The eyes of a frog I usually see are quite different. The moment I looked into it, I felt my hair stand up, and the sweat on my body flowed down my back like cold water. At that time, what I was thinking about was no longer fresh and plump.

Frog meat, but how I can escape!

The sky slowly turned dark, and the surrounding scenery was no longer clear. Just when I turned around and ran, the two frogs the size of a washbasin rushed towards me, one on the left and one on the right, and landed on my thighs.

The bite was not very painful, but it scared me enough to scream and run away...

After not running far, I met my eldest brother who came to look for me. It turned out that my father saw that I was still not home so late, so he asked my eldest brother to look for me by the riverside where I often played. When he heard my cry, my eldest brother came to greet me.

Come to me, take me back...

That night, I developed a high fever and kept having nightmares. In the dream, the two frogs the size of washbasins led countless little frogs without hind legs to surround me, and they all shouted, "Give me my legs, give me my legs."

…”

My family found several doctors for me and took several medicines. The high fever gradually subsided. But I was still groggy, my legs were becoming more and more painful, and then the pain turned to numbness, making it difficult to walk.

Later, I went to countless doctors and doctors, and I didn’t know how many internal and external medicines were used. My legs were still unable to get out of bed and walk. My family became more and more anxious, and I became more and more frightened and desperate!

About half a month after my illness, a "half-immortal" from the same sect told my family that what I had was not an ordinary disease, but that he could not resolve it because of his shallow spiritual practice. He persuaded my family to take me to Ziyun Taoist Temple, dozens of miles away.

Please ask the Taoist Master Shaoyang to take a look, maybe he can be saved!

My family took me to the Ziyun Taoist Temple, and two Taoist boys led the way. I saw the famous Shaoyang Master. I saw that he had long hair and white beard, a slender face, bright eyes, and a fluttering white beard.

Taoist Immortal Wind...

The Taoist Master looked at me slightly, without checking the injury on my leg, and said slowly: "Although it is difficult to live in troubled times and famine years, you have committed a lot of sins at a young age! Although it is the way of heaven for all living things to eat each other, but all

He should never have been allowed to live without the hope of death, and died after suffering so much pain and suffering. He had killed countless people. His crimes were too serious and he might not be cured!"

I quickly asked the Taoist Priest for help, and my parents also begged the Taoist Priest for me.

"Unless you become a monk, how can the Frog King and countless wronged souls spare you? Your legs will become necrotic in a few days, and you will die wailing in pain..." The Taoist priest shook his head, sighed, and stopped talking.

Naturally, we didn't believe it was so serious and decided to go home and see a famous doctor again.

The next day, we went to the county town dozens of miles away to find a foreign doctor. The foreign doctor performed various examinations on me, but found nothing. My painful and numb legs were indeed neither green nor red.

There was no external injury, and the foreign doctor also spread his hands, saying that there was nothing he could do!

Later, I went to many doctors and took a lot of medicine. Not only did I not get better, my legs became worse and worse. I couldn't walk at all. The pain made me moan day and night...

I was really helpless, so I had no choice but to follow the advice of Taoist Master Shaoyang and become a monk to avoid disaster! It was also a blessing in disguise. I was lucky enough to meet my mentor, Master Shaoyang. Later, I learned Taoism and practices from him, traveled far and wide, and helped people in trouble, and that’s how I am today!

The Taoist priest's story made the villagers sigh with admiration, and they expressed their willingness to listen to his teachings and do good deeds!
