Qingfeng Town is a market town in the south, 5 miles away from Qingfeng Town, there is a village, the village is called Phoenix Village. There is an old single stick on the phoenix village, and the old single stick is 42 years old. The reason why the old bachelor did not marry his wife was because when he was young, his family was too poor. At that time, his father liked to gamble, selling grain when he lost all the money in the family, and his mother was lazy and lazy. At the age of 32, his father fell ill and died. Three years after his father's death, his mother also died. Since then, he has been the only one left in his family.
Old Guanggun began to raise sheep at the age of 36, and as a result, he made a fortune after raising sheep for a few years. One day at noon, the old bachelor was eating lunch at home, when suddenly a man came. This man was from the town, his name was Li Damao. This Li Damao is not a good man, but a human trafficker. After Li Damao arrived at the old Guanggun's house, he opened the door and said to the old Guanggun: "I have a 19-year-old woman in my hand, can you buy it?" The old Guanggun thought about it after listening to Li Damao's words, and then said, "How much do you want?" Li Damao said: "I don't want much money, that is, 200 taels of silver." ”
The old single stick said, "200 taels of silver is too much, and besides, I can't take out 200 taels of silver." After listening to the old Guanggun's words, Li Damao said, "Then how much silver are you going to give?" The old bachelor said, "I can only give you 80 taels of silver." Li Damao said: "80 taels of silver is too little." As a result, the two bargained and finally sold for 120 taels of silver. The next morning, Li Damao took a young woman to the home of the old Guanggun, who kept his promise and gave Li Damao 120 taels of silver. After the old bachelor bought the young woman, he was afraid that the young woman would escape and tied the young woman to the room. Time passed, unconsciously, and half a year passed. The old bachelor, seeing that the young woman showed no sign of escape, let his guard down, and he allowed the young woman to play around his house.
One morning, the old bachelor was chopping firewood at home, and the young woman was playing outside the courtyard door. Suddenly, the young woman ran away. Old Guanggun's neighbor was a big aunt, and the aunt was just coming home, and when she saw the young woman running away, she quickly shouted: "Wang Laowu, your wife has run away." "It turned out that the name of the old guanggun was Wang Laowu. After the old bachelor heard the cry of the aunt, he quickly ran out of the courtyard and began to chase the young woman.
When the young woman ran to the east end of the village, several villagers appeared in front of her, and the young woman did not dare to run forward, so she ran into the courtyard of a family. The owner of the family was named Wang Qingshan, a young hunter. When Wang Qingshan saw the young woman running into his yard, he immediately understood what was going on. He hurriedly said to the young woman, "Come with me." As a result, Wang Qingshan took the young woman to the backyard. In the backyard, after Wang Qingshan fiddled with one wall for a moment, a hole appeared in the wall. He said to the young woman, "Hurry in." After the young woman entered the cave, Wang Qingshan pounded on the wall for a moment, and the hole in the wall disappeared. When Wang Qingshan walked to the front yard, the old single stick was already in the front yard of his house.
The old bachelor said to him, "My wife has run to your house, and I will look for her at your house." Wang Qingshan said, "Look for it!" As a result, the old guanggun searched all over Wang Qingshan's home, but did not find the young woman, and finally the old guanggun had to leave sadly.
Late at night, Wang Qingshan took the meal into the hole in the wall, which turned out to be a sandwich wall. In the middle of the wall, Wang Qingshan lit a candle and then said to the young woman, "You hurry up and eat!" The young woman was probably hungry, and after taking the meal, she devoured it. When the young woman had finished eating, Wang Qingshan said to her, "I plan to send you away before dawn." After listening to Wang Qingshan's words, the young woman said, "Trouble you to send me to the county court, I will report the case." Wang Qingshan said, "Good." ”
When it was almost dawn, Wang Qingshan led the woman out of the clamp wall. After they walked to the front yard, Wang Qingshan said to the young woman, "Let me first see if there is anyone outside?" Wang Qingshan finished speaking, climbed up the courtyard wall, and found the old single stick hiding behind a large tree three meters away from his house. After Wang Qingshan got off the courtyard wall, he said to the young woman, "You can't leave, what about the old bare stick guarding outside?" Next, Wang Qingshan led the young woman into the sandwich wall.
Late one night a month later, Wang Qingshan found that the old guanggun was no longer guarding outside his house, so he took the young woman out of the village and then took her to the town. In the town, Wang Qingshan knocked on the door of a friend's house, who was driving a carriage. Wang Qingshan said to this friend, "I want to ask you for help, and you will quickly send us to the county seat." This friend of his said, "Good. ”
The next morning, the carriage stopped at the gate of the county court. Next, Wang Qingshan took the young woman into the county court to report the case. However, this Zhixian was a fainting official, and he said to Wang Qingshan and the young woman, "I can't take care of this matter." Wang Qingshan saw that the county did not care about this matter, so he had to leave the county with the young woman. Outside the county court, he said to the young woman, "Since zhixian doesn't care about this, then I will send you home!" After listening to Wang Qingshan's words, the young woman said, "My home is in a foreign county, so please send me home!" ”
After Wang Qingshan sent the young woman home, the young woman's parents first thanked Wang Qingshan and then asked About Wang Qingshan. When they learned that Wang Qingshan was a hunter, they persuaded Wang Qingshan to go to the border pass to join the army, because there was now a war. The young woman's father said to Wang Qingshan: "One of my relatives is a general at Border Pass, and if you want to join the army, I can write a letter of recommendation." Wang Qingshan thought for a moment, then said, "Well, I'll go to the border pass and join the army." ”
A month later, Wang Qingshan arrived at the border pass and quickly found the general. After reading the recommendation letter, the general said to Wang Qingshan, "From today onwards, you will be my soldier." Since then, Wang Qingshan has begun to live in a military camp. Because of his bravery in battle, he soon became a petty officer. Five years later, the war was over. After the war, Wang Qingshan became a general. One day, he returned to Phoenix Village with his guards. After he returned to Phoenix Village, he came to the old Guanggun's house, and then said to the old Guanggun, "Go, follow me to the county court." ”
After Wang Qingshan arrived at the county with the old bare stick and the guards, he met Zhi County, which was no longer the Zhi County of that year, but a young Zhi County. He told Zhixian about the old guanggun who bought the young woman and saved the young woman himself. Zhixian said to the old Guanggun, "You quickly tell me about the trafficker." Old Guanggun was very frightened, and quickly told ZhiXian about Li Damao's situation, and Zhixian immediately ordered the servants to arrest Li Damao. Because Li Damao did not know that the servants had arrested him, he had no defenses, and as a result, the servants easily caught him. In the end, Li Damao was sentenced to death, and Lao Guanggun was sentenced to 8 years in prison.
