Walking on the road, Dakui sighed with regret when he recalled all the hardships. Until it was getting dark and there was no one around. Dakui wanted to test how fast he could run now that the burden was gone, so he couldn't help but run as fast as he could.
As I ran, I felt the wind in my ears, and the scenery on both sides seemed to be flying backwards. I saw a figure on the road, like an arrow from the string, disappearing in an instant. Don't mention how happy Dakui was. At this speed, Dakui could reach home in less than half a month.
Unknowingly, Da Kui ran from dusk to dawn. Da Kui had already reached the border of Lin'an. There were farmers working early in the farmland beside the road. Da Kui stopped and let out a long breath, feeling extremely comfortable all over his body after running so far.
, but I didn’t feel tired.
Da Kui didn't know that when he was a middle school student in Tiantai Mountain, he ate the fairy grass elixir as food for five years. Today, Da Kui is no longer what he used to be. Not only does he have great strength, but he also has extraordinary eyesight and hearing. Now is the time to go back to him.
It didn't matter if he ran all day and all night. He didn't know how far he had traveled that night. Da Kui looked for a farmer and asked, "Uncle, where is this place? I'm from out of town."
The farmer said: "This is Qingshan Au, and further north is Huangpo Ridge, which is the boundary of Lin'an."
When Da Kui heard this, he was filled with joy. He quickly thanked him and thought of visiting the kind-hearted old man Liu and his family in Huangpoling. Thinking of Da Kui, he quickened his pace and walked north, even though he could walk much faster than ordinary people. The farmer returned
He turned his head and asked in confusion: "Why is this man walking so fast?"
Da Kui walked for nearly twenty miles and found Xiaoling Village based on his memory. Da Kui entered the village and came to the door of Old Man Liu, but there was a lock on the door. Da Kui looked around and wanted to find someone to ask. It happened that
A twelve- or thirteen-year-old shepherd boy led an ox and came from a distance. Dakui walked over and asked, "Child, do you know where the old uncle Liu and his family have gone?"
The shepherd boy looked Dakui up and down and said, "You are from out of town, right? Mr. Liu and grandma Liu from this family died of illness a few years ago." After saying this, the shepherd boy took the ox and left.
Dakui felt so sad that he turned around and stood in front of the door for a long time. He thought to himself: 'Even if these two kind people passed away, I should go to the graves to pay homage.' Thinking of this, he found a villager and asked about the burial of the two old people.
Gu Zhizhi asked where he could buy paper money for incense and candles. The villager said that there was no money in the village, and to buy it he had to go to Huangling Town, fifty miles away to the west.
Da Kui agreed and turned around to leave. The village man shouted: "Little brother, the town is so far away from here."
Dakui said: "Thank you very much, brother." After saying this, Dakui walked out of the village.
Da Kui left the village and saw no one around, so he ran westward. When he arrived in the town, he found a restaurant and had a full meal. He went to a coffin shop to buy incense, candles, paper money and a few cakes as tributes. Da Kui held a pole in one hand and a bag of cakes in the other.
He rushed back with incense, candles, paper money and tributes in less than half an hour.
It happened that the villager was chatting with several fellow villagers at the entrance of the village. Da Kui walked up and said, "Brother, I would like to trouble you to take me to pay homage to Uncle Liu's grave." The villager was immediately dumbfounded. At first he just wanted to
If you play tricks on this outsider, you can sell incense, candles and paper money in the village. Who would have thought that this outsider would actually believe it.
The villager asked in disbelief: "Did you go to Huangling Town to buy it?"
Dakui nodded and said: "Yes, I came back after having a meal."
The villager laughed and said: "Don't try to trick me. Huangling Town is more than fifty miles away from here. How can you come back in a moment?"
Da Kui remembered what Wu Jie had said, don't reveal your wealth to others, and don't show off your skills to others, but he didn't know how to lie. He could only say, "Don't worry about how I come and go. If you don't tell me, I will go find someone else."
When the people next to him saw it, they persuaded him: "Hey, Liu Zi. Just take him there."
The six men thought that they had nothing to do anyway, so they said: "Let's go then." After saying that, he led Dakui to the back mountain, walking all the way: "Hey, old Liu Tou and his wife are also pitiful, childless.
"A few years ago, there was a famine here, and many people died of starvation. Then there was a plague, and the old couple died of illness." Liu Zi walked all the way and lamented: "Now that the world is in chaos, the lives of the people are miserable."
Dakui listened and felt extremely sad. The two of them arrived at a lonely grave on the mountain, only to see that the grave was covered with weeds and looked desolate.
Liuzi said: "That's it. At that time, everyone in the village fled to famine. The old man did not leave because he was old. When everyone came back, they found that the old couple had died of illness at home. It was the villagers who collaborated to bury the two old people here.
When Liu Zi saw that someone had arrived, he said, "Okay, if there's nothing else to do, I'll go." After saying that, he turned around and went down the mountain.
Dakui felt so sad at this moment that he started to pull out all the weeds on the grave and spread some soil. Then he knelt in front of the grave and silently found a piece of gray homespun clothes from the bag and wrapped it around his head. He offered sacrificial incense and candles in front of the grave and took the
The fire sickle turned the paper money. Then he shed tears and said: "Old man Liu, I, Dakui, came back late and didn't have time to see you off. If I hadn't taken him in, I would have starved to death on the road. Today I'm back, but you and my aunt are...
No more..." My old friend has passed away, so I can only cry and express my heartfelt feelings to the thick soil of the emperor's sky. Finally, Dakui lay on the grave and let out a loud cry of sorrow. The more he cried, the sadder he became, and the sadder he became, the more he cried, and finally he fainted in front of the grave.
When Da Kui woke up, it was already dusk and he kowtowed three times to the solitary grave. Da Kui took off the clothes on his head and stuffed them into his baggage. He put the bag on his back, picked up the pole and went back down the mountain. Da Kui didn't stop in the village and went straight to the main road.
Keep walking north until there is no one around, then start running quickly again.
After that, Da Kui stayed in an inn or found someone to sleep in during the day, and traveled at night. On the morning of the fourth day, he arrived at the south bank of the Yangtze River. However, there was only one merchant ship unloading goods at the dock. Da Kui waited until about four o'clock before boarding the ship to cross the river. Seeing the majesty of the Yangtze River again,
Dakui couldn't help but sigh again: "The Yangtze River is so wide and long"...
It was almost noon when the merchant ship docked. Da Kui found a restaurant and ordered a stewed chicken, some pig's trotters, four large bowls of meat and egg noodles, and had a delicious meal. In the past few days, he only ate one meal every day.
In addition to sleeping, Da Kui would rush on the road every night. Da Kui was really hungry. Da Kui was rushing to go home early to visit his mother. Her mother didn't know how she was doing at home. She didn't know who would carry water for her.
She chops firewood and there are no animals at home. Who will pull the plow for her when farming?
After dinner, Da Kui paid the bill, picked up his baggage and left. As long as there was no one around, he would run wildly, and even more unscrupulously at night. After three days of this, he finally arrived at the border of Jeju. Da Kui looked forward to seeing him soon.
Mother. She didn’t stop on the way and rushed straight home.
Dusk is approaching, the wind is sad and the leaves are yellow.
Da Kui was approaching the entrance of the village and saw an old woman standing at the entrance of the village looking out from a distance. Now Da Kui's eyesight was so sharp. He saw it was his mother. Da Kui quickened his steps and kept shouting: "Mom, Da Kui is back.
." In the end, I ran with all my strength like wind and lightning. When I ran to my mother, I stopped. I knelt down in front of my mother and hugged my mother's legs and broke down in tears.
Da Kui's mother was stunned for a while before saying, "Isn't this a dream?"
Dakui cried: "Mom, your son Dakui is back."
Only then did the mother believe it. She hugged Da Kui and cried: "You said you would come back in three years. I look forward to it every day. Every day when it gets dark, I wait at the entrance of the village. I have been waiting for two years. My son, you have come back."
