During the Song Ningzong period, there was a scholar named Zhuo Fucheng, who was very flexible in his mind, good at drilling and cunning, and his mouth was also very sharp, and his speech was pleasing to people. He has always held the dream of entering the imperial examination, studied hard, helplessly stopped at lifting people, and participated in the examination many times, all of which were famous for sun mountains.
This year, Zhuo Fucheng went to the capital to take the imperial examination, and once again fell to Sun Shan. His heart was filled with frustration and he set off home sullenly. When passing a high mountain, he had an impulse in his heart, wanting to climb the mountain, climb high and look far away, and soothe his depressed mood.
Zhuo Fucheng turned and walked up the mountain road, climbing all the way to the top of the mountain. As he looked around, he could see the rolling hills and mountains, and his mood couldn't help but improve.
At this time, the sky was suddenly cloudy, followed by lightning and thunder. Lightning and thunder exploded around Zhuo Fucheng from far and near, shaking the mountain. Zhuo Fucheng did not dodge either, looked up at the sky, stretched out his arms, and shouted loudly: "The eldest husband cannot get his wish, although he regrets his death!" Readers can't be recruited, it's better to live than to die! Come on, thunder and lightning, more fiercely, chop me to death. ”
Lightning surrounded his arms, thunder exploded above his head, and the grass and trees around him were blown up and scattered to the ground. Zhuo Fucheng had no fear, like a madman, roaring at the heavens. After about half an hour, the thunder and lightning disappeared, the dark clouds dispersed, and the sun showed a smiling face.
Zhuo Fucheng suddenly felt that the hem of his pants had been touched by something, and when he looked down, there was a fox curled up under his crotch. He suddenly realized, picked up the fox and said, "The thunder and lightning just now didn't come at me, it came at you, right?" ”
The fox said, "Yes, today is the day I crossed the river, but fortunately I met you and let me escape the disaster." You have grace for me, I want to repay you, I can fulfill your wish, say, what do you want? ”
Zhuo Fucheng was overjoyed and said, "I don't want anything, I just want to go to high school and become an official of the imperial court." The fox laughed scornfully and said, "What's so good about being an official?" Zhuo Fucheng said: "When the official is more powerful, he hugs before and after, and the shock is eight sides." ”
The fox broke free from Zhuo Fucheng's arms, jumped to the ground, looked up, and said, "Don't envy the official, the key is that you are destined not to be an official." Zhuo Fucheng laughed and said, "That's why I want you to fulfill my wish." The fox hesitated again and again, and said, "This is a change of fate against the sky, and if you don't get it right, you will be punished, and the gain will not be worth the loss." If you don't belong, even if you force it, you will eventually lose more. You change your wish. ”
Zhuo Fucheng said, "If I don't change, I will be admitted to the army." The fox said, "It's not impossible, but I'm going to say something ugly ahead of you, and don't regret it when the time comes." Zhuo Fucheng swore to heaven that he would never regret it. The fox said, "After three years, I am waiting here to make your mind come true." Zhuo Fucheng was overjoyed and resigned.
In the blink of an eye, three years have passed, and Zhuo Fucheng has embarked on the road to catch the exam. When I walked to the foot of this mountain, I saw an old man crouching at the intersection. The old man saw him, stood up, and said, "I've been waiting for you for a long time." He was the fox, and asked Zhuo Fucheng to call him Old Qin and follow him to the capital.
When he arrived at the capital, Old Qin asked Zhuo Fucheng to hide in the inn and not go out, and he disguised himself as Zhuo Fucheng to take the exam. Later, the imperial list was announced, and Zhuo Fucheng really won the jinshi. Before leaving, Old Qin told Zhuo Fucheng that he must be honest and honest as an official, and cherish this hard-won opportunity.
Zhuo Fucheng was allowed to serve as a county commander in a county town, and he took his family to his post, so that he could not be proud of the spring breeze. Zhuo Fucheng was good at greeting each other, clever words, and was very successful in the official field, and in less than ten years, he had been transferred to the capital city. He became more and more unscrupulous, wantonly plundering money, forming parties for personal gain, and engaging in favoritism and fraud. He not only opened up manors and robbed the women of the people, but also recruited outlaws as wings for misdeeds. When you enter the door, you spend a lot of time and wine, singing and dancing, and when you go out, there are groups of slaves, and the car and horse procession is huge and very pompous. For a time, his power was overwhelming, and he had the potential to cover the sky with one hand.
The so-called thing must be reversed. In this year, a new yushi surnamed Liu was newly appointed, who was not accustomed to Zhuo Fucheng's arrogant and arrogant style, collected Zhuo Fucheng's dirty tricks over the years, listed ten crimes, and impeached him on the table.
Song Ningzong had already heard about it, and after receiving the recital, he handed Zhuo Fucheng over to the Third Division for trial, sat down on the charges, threw himself into a big prison, and cut off the door. Poor Zhuo Fucheng had been operating for more than a decade, and it was wiped out. In the big prison, he saw that his wife and children were wearing shackles, and he couldn't help but burst into tears, looking up at the sky and sighing: "If I had known this, I might as well have been a person who cultivates long mu, reunited with my wife and children every day, and enjoyed the joy of heaven." ”
The night before the execution, the lights flashed, and Old Qin appeared in front of Zhuo Fucheng, sighed, and said, "I said earlier that if you change your life against the heavens, you will be punished, and you just don't believe it." You used to live idly in the mountains and die at the age of seventy-eight, but now you are less than fifty years old, and you have lost nearly thirty years of life. ”
Zhuo Fucheng knelt on the ground and cried, "The fox fairy saved me." Old Qin shook his head and said, "This is the end of the matter, I can't save you." Remember that you once helped me, I will leave you with a bloodline. After saying that, he took Zhuo Fucheng's little grandson in his arms, threw the crutch in his hand to the ground, and the crutch became Zhuo Fucheng's little grandson. In the blink of an eye, Old Qin was holding the child and disappeared.
More than twenty years later, a young man from Zhuo Fucheng's hometown, claiming to be Zhuo Fucheng's grandson, settled in the village, married and had children, and continued to have offspring. Occasionally, an old man with a white beard would come to visit him. This person is Old Qin.
There are many things in the world that cannot be demanded. Even if the demand comes, it will not be saved after all. If you want to change your destiny, there is nothing wrong with it, but you must be down-to-earth, start from reality, and don't be ambitious and delusional. This story adopts an absurd penmanship, which lies in borrowing things to persuade the world, and has nothing to do with feudal superstition.
