There was a man named Lu Daoyi in Taishan, Shandong, whose parents died since he was a child, so he went to Xuandiguan to become a Taoist child. Emperor Xuan had a Daoist leader named Qingxu Daochang, and seeing that he was wise and wise, he accepted him as a disciple. The Taoist priest gave him two volumes of the Heavenly Book, the first volume talking about driving away foxes, and the lower volume talking about driving away ghosts.
Lu Daoyi had been studying for ten years, and he had a little success in the tricks of the ghosts, and he had not yet studied the art of driving foxes. But he did not have a common fate, thinking that he had the art of ghosting, eating and wearing and finding a wife would not be a problem, so he resigned from his master and went down the mountain to return to the customs.
After descending the mountain, because Lu Daoyi was proficient in spells and became famous, there was an endless stream of people who came to ask him to cast spells on ghosts.
One day, an old man came, carrying a generous gift, saying that his daughter was entangled in a ghost and was in danger, and pleaded with Lu Daoyi to personally go and eliminate the disaster for his daughter. When Lu Daoyi heard that he was critically ill, he refused to accept the gift, so he immediately went with the old man, walked about ten miles, entered a mountain village, and arrived at the old man's house. Only to see green bricks and green tiles, gorgeous houses.
After entering the house, I saw a young girl lying in a yarn tent, the girl was about fourteen or fifteen years old, with only breath, described as withered. Lu Daoyi leaned up to take a closer look, and she suddenly opened her eyes and said, "Good doctor is coming?" "The family saw great joy because she had not spoken for seven days and seven nights.
Lu Daoyi walked out of the boudoir and inquired about his condition. The old man said, "In the daytime, there is often a teenager who comes and sleeps with my daughter. When we went to catch him, he was gone. After a while it came again, and I guessed he must be ghostly. ”
Lu Daoyi said, "If it is really a ghost, it is not difficult to exorcise him; I am afraid that he is a fox spirit, and if that is the case, I will have no way." ”
The old man said affirmatively, "Not a fox spirit, not a fox spirit." ”
Lu Daoyi handed him a charm and stayed at the old man's house that night. In the middle of the night, a beautiful boy dressed in a neat dress walked in, and Lu Daoyi saw that he was a ghost, so he picked up the demon sword and asked the teenager what was going on. The ghost replied, "Lu Dao is angry, I am a good ghost, but the old man's family is a fox spirit, and I like the old man's daughter Cai Xia, so I came here." The combination of ghosts and fox spirits does not harm yin morality, so why do you break up other people's marriages and protect fox spirits? Cai Xia's sister is called Hongxia, born beautiful, I do not touch him, but left it for you. If the old man is willing to give him to you, and you give him treatment, I will naturally leave. ”
Lu Daoyi was very happy after hearing this, and he agreed. After the teenager finished speaking, Cai Xia soon woke up. After dawn, Cai Xia looked clear, spoke and ate. The family was happy to come and visit. Lu Daoyi sat in front of Cai Xia's bed for medical examination. When I accidentally looked up and saw a beautiful woman standing behind the embroidered tent, the sky was gorgeous, like a fairy, and I thought that it must be Hongxia.
After the examination, Lu Daoyi offered to marry Hongxia, but the old man refused because Hongxia was young. Lu Daoyi left angrily, and the old man's house was even more haunted, and except for Hongxia, all the women and women in the family were seduced by the ghosts.
After a few days, the old man had no choice but to ask Lu Daoyi again, saying, "If sir can exorcise the ghosts of my family and make the whole family peaceful, the little girl Hongxia is fifteen years old, and she is willing to marry her to mr. Lu Daoyi was overjoyed, prostrated his head in thanks, and immediately went to Hongxia's house with the old man.
That night, Lu Daoyi sprinkled the Fa water, and there were words in his mouth, and the ghosts did not come to disturb him again, and the whole house was particularly peaceful. Lu Daoyi saw that Cai Xia was getting better, so he wanted to quit and go home. The old man repeatedly retained, and Lu Daoyi had to stay for another day. In the evening, the old man prepared meals and warmly entertained Lu Daoyi. At the second time, the old man got up and left. Lu Daoyi was about to fall asleep when he suddenly heard a rapid knock at the door, and when he opened the door, it was Hongxia. Hongxia looked frightened and said to Lu Daoyi breathlessly, "My family is going to poison you, so run away!" After saying that, he turned around hurriedly.
When Lu Daoyi heard this, he trembled with fear and no blood, and hurriedly jumped off the wall and ran. Fleeing home, the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, so he went to ask Master.
The Qingxu Daoist leader came to the old man's house with Lu Daoyi, called out to the gods, called the ghost, beat the old man to the prototype, and sure enough, it was an old fox, so he tied it up.
Seeing that her father was caught, Hongxia begged Lu Daoyi bitterly, and Lu Daoyi agreed to ask Master, and Master interrogated the old fox who he was, and Lu Daoyi said that he was his father-in-law, and told The master the truth one by one, Lu Daoyi, because of the cunning of the fox, refused to let him go easily, and could not stop Lu Daoyi's bitter request, so he agreed.
Lu Daoyi told Master about the cunning of the old fox, and the old fox listened and hid in the stove, with a look of shame. Qing Xuan Dao smiled and said, "That old fox's shame has not yet been lost!" So he cast a spell to release the old fox, and the old fox was saved, wagging his tail and sneaking out of the view. Lu Daoyi also bid farewell to Master and went home.
Lu Daoyi went home, and Hongxia came up and bowed to the ground. Lu Daoyi lifted Hongxia up. Hongxia told him to go back to see his father and would come back in three days. Lu Daoyi had to go by her, not wanting Hongxia to leave, and then returning two days later. Lu Daoyi was surprised and asked, "Why did you come back so quickly?" ”
Hongxia said: "Because you teased him, my father never forgot his heart, nagged all day, I didn't want to listen anymore, so I came back early." ”
Since then, Hongxia and Lu Daoyi have been married and have frequent contacts with their mother-in-law, but Lu Daoyi and his father-in-law have no longer paid attention.
