According to legend, Hei Wuchang is also a person with a name. Bai Wuchang's name is Xie Bi'an, known as "Seventh Master". Hei Wuchang's name is Fan Wujiu, known as "Eighth Master". The two have known each other since childhood and are like brothers.
They have different personalities but they are real brothers.
It is said that one day, the two of them walked together under the Nantai Bridge. It was about to rain. The seventh master felt that it was inappropriate to go out like this, so he asked the eighth master to wait for a while when he went home to get an umbrella in case the weather changed. Unexpectedly, after the seventh master left,
, thunderstorms and torrential rain poured down, and the river under the bridge surged up to its knees. Master Ba saw this
He was anxious, but he was dull and unwilling to break the promise, so the poor child waited hard under the bridge. He didn't come when he waited, and he didn't come when he waited. In the end, he was drowned alive by the swollen river because of his short stature.
Death is the first person in ancient and modern times to be so serious-minded.
After he died, it didn't take long for Master Qi to rush over with an umbrella in the heavy rain, but the road was slippery and difficult to walk on, which delayed a lot of time. By the time he arrived, Master Eight had been washed away by the flood and died. See Master Qi
He was so miserable that he thought he had harmed his brother. He was so ashamed and angry that he hung himself on a bridge pillar.
After going down to the underworld, Lord Hell was very moved. He felt that these two people had deep faith and good character, so he ordered them to catch the lawless people in front of the City God. Because of this, Hei Wuchang, who was holding the hook, always looked like a criminal.
Bai Wuchang, who hanged himself to death, often stuck out his long red tongue.
Of course, there are many similar legends. Some people say that this name is probably made up. The seventh master Xie Bian means that if you reward the gods, you will have peace of mind. The eighth master Fan Wujiu means that people who break the law are incurable.
Metaphors. No matter how credible these statements are, at least one thing is consistent among the various legends.
They are two completely different personalities. It is said that Bai Wuchang has a wife, and he and his wife can be seen enjoying incense together in some Chenghuang temples. As for Hei Wuchang, it’s hard to say. According to Master Jiu, it’s very
It's rare to see him bring his wife out. From this point of view, it really fits the saying that character determines destiny.
There is a typical story about Bai Wuchang. It is said that one year during the Qingming Festival, Bai Wuchang passed by a place on business and saw a woman with two children crying in front of a grave. She was very sad. As she walked,
Then I saw an old man shaking his head and sighing not far away, feeling sympathy for the woman.
Bai Wuchang transformed into a farmer and asked the old man why he was like this. After asking, he realized that this woman had been greatly wronged.
It turned out that this woman's surname was Chen, and she was the third daughter of a wealthy businessman. The wealthy businessman had quite a fortune, but had bad luck and only gave birth to three daughters. The third daughter still had a pock-marked face. The mother saw that the third daughter had contracted this condition due to smallpox.
I blamed myself very much for my illness, so I loved my third daughter very much.
Last year, the old lady died of a serious illness, leaving behind a large family fortune. Many people made up their minds. Among these people, there was a clerk from the Chen family named Ao Da. He was honest on the surface, but actually very scheming. He made plans.
, Miss Chen San is a pockmark, and the young master from a rich family will definitely not want her. Why not seduce her and make her his wife, and when his father dies, won’t the tens of thousands of dollars of wealth belong to him?
In fact, he was right about it. Miss Chen San had been involved in many marriages, but because of her pockmarked face, she refused to marry anyone. Seeing that Ao Da was strong and strong, Miss Chen also made her father like her.
Years ago, one of them had already made a small plan, so the two of them flirted with each other, and within a few days they hooked up and began to have an affair.
The contraceptive measures in ancient times were not particularly good. How could she endure the night after night? In addition, Ao Da also did it deliberately. It didn't take long for Miss Chen San's belly to get bigger.
In those days, it was not a trivial matter for such things to spread, so Miss Chen San's father had no choice but to invite Ao Da, who had resorted to trickery, to be his son-in-law.
After Ao Da really became a son-in-law, he couldn't continue to be a clerk. After some consideration, his father-in-law proposed that he should be the general manager, and he would take care of all the household affairs. As people become more developed, their mentality changes. Gradually, Ao Da
Big to him
The father-in-law was no longer so submissive. He drank heavily and visited women outside, and acted like a playboy. When he came home, Miss Chen San persuaded him, and he even humiliated Miss Chen San.
There is no shortage of cynicism.
After Mr. Chen found out about this, he fell ill and became very angry not long after. From then on, Ao Da, who inherited such a big business, became more and more serious about whoring and gambling at night.
After hearing what the old man said, Bai Wuchang became angry and decided to teach Ao Da a lesson, and by the way, show Miss Chen San a way to survive.
He quietly followed Miss Chen San home, and happened to meet a gambler who came to collect gambling debts. When she saw that this was Ao's big deal, she had to pay him one hundred taels of silver. But when the gambler saw that there was no one at home, he unexpectedly
Being lustful, he was about to do something obscene while holding Miss Chen San. When Bai Wuchang who was following him saw her, he immediately rushed over and slapped her three times. The boy was confused and ran out in a panic.
Taking advantage of this moment, Miss Chen San pushed away the gambler and fled into the back room. After unlocking the door, she couldn't think of anything and even took the rope to hang herself.
Unexpectedly, she broke a rope every time she hung it, and she could not die no matter what. She felt strange in her heart that Bai Wuchang had revealed his true form, opened the door, and carried her two children into her house.
Miss Chen San saw Bai Wuchang smiling very kindly, and was not too afraid. Bai Wuchang handed the two children to her and then said: "Girl, why do you commit suicide? Why don't you pack up the remaining money at home and go to another place? The two children are still alive."
I want you to raise me!"
After hearing Bai Wuchang's words, Miss Chen San felt it made sense. After thanking her profusely, she took her two children and left. After Miss Chen San left, four shops in the Chen family caught fire at the same time. At this time, Ao Da was
He hugged prostitutes and smoked cigarettes in Chunxiang Courtyard. When he rushed home, all his family property was burned down.
At this time, he was deeply in debt and had no money to repay, and he should feel regretful, but he had to accept his fate while crying and fighting. As the saying goes, God's retribution is clear.
Judging from this story, Bai Wuchang's image is relatively benign. In contrast, Hei Wuchang Fan Wujiu is much more serious. There are also many legends about Hei Wuchang, and one of them, "Hei Wuchang Changes Evil and Becomes Good" is also quite typical.
Legend has it that once upon a time there were two father and son,
The son has been indolent since he was a child, smoking and gambling. His father disciplined him, but he refused to listen. Once, the son came back from gambling and lost everything. The father accidentally beat his son to death. After his death, his bad habits did not change, and his ghost continued to do evil in the world.
