"The Origin of the Cuckoo", "The Complete Works".
Cuckoo.
A long, long time ago, at the foot of Yanshan Mountain, lived a young man named Bugoo who made a living by collecting firewood. His father and mother went ~ early, and he was lonely since he was a child, often starving and cold. On this day, Bucoo came to the mid-level mountain to collect firewood, and suddenly heard a chirping of birds, the sound was crisp, looking for birdsong. Cuckoo came to a big tree, and suddenly a drop of blood fell on Cuckoo's shoulder. Looking up, it turned out to be a wounded bird curled up on a branch. The young man cuckoo climbed up the tree in two or three strokes, gently held the bird, ripped off the rags on his body, and carefully bandaged the bird.
Only then did Cuckoo notice the bird's hair, which was bright and colorful. When the cuckoo finished collecting firewood, he dragged the bird home with the bird. When he got home, he made an elaborate birdcage out of twigs and let the birds live in it. The cuckoo family was very poor, and often he could not exchange half a liter of rice after a day's firewood, but he would rather eat wild vegetables himself than starve the birds. The bird's wings gradually grow and become more radiant. A few crisp chirping of the cuckoo by the bird wakes the cuckoo from his sleep. Cuckoo got up happily.
Seeing the cuckoo in and out of the busy, the bird jumped up and down happily in the cage. Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, winter came, and he wondered if this little bird in the north could adapt? It may need to go to warm ground. On this day, Cuckoo was absent-minded and restless. Thinking about it, he decided that he would rather continue to be lonely by himself than let the bird be wronged.
When Cuckoo returned home in the evening, he slowly opened the birdcage, to the beautiful bird, my relative, you fly to a warm place for the winter. Cuckoo was sad and desperate, and the bird was silent. Before dawn the next day, Cuckoo hurried out the door, not daring to look at the cage when he went out.
On this day, Cuckoo had been waiting in the mountains, he didn't want to watch the birds fly away, and he walked home listlessly until it was dark. The familiar cry of the cuckoo sounded again, and he hurried to the cage under the eaves. Cuckoo stared blankly at the open birdcage, listening to the charming song of the birds, unable to say a word, until the bird stopped singing. Cuckoo went to cook happily.
As soon as he arrived at the stove to open the pot, a cloud of hot air poured out, and the yellow millet porridge and the big steamed bun with white flowers had already been prepared. Although Cuckoo was already hungry, he couldn't help but ponder for a long time. It's really strange about this, who cooks it? Where are these rice noodles? This strange thing happened every day for three days in a row. Cuckoo went out early in the morning, and after not taking a few steps, he turned back quietly, wanting to see what happened. At noon, he gently pushed open the courtyard door and walked to the window, popped the window paper and looked in, oh my God, there was a beautiful girl washing pots and dishes in the house. He turned his head again, and the birdcage under the eaves was empty, and a small multicolored raincoat lay in it. Cuckoo seemed to understand, he gently picked up the rain, he gently picked up the raincoat and put it in his arms. Hearing a noise outside the house, the girl hurriedly ran out of the house. Seeing that the raincoat in the cage was gone, I had to stand with a red face. Cuckoo was surprised and delighted, and he stammered no: Who are you, you are so good to me, I will marry. If you are willing to nod your head or not, I will return the raincoat to you. The girl raised her head with a pair of big eyes affectionately, and the big eyes looked at Cuckoo affectionately and nodded gently. Cuckoo was overjoyed when he saw the girl agree. He took out his raincoat and threw it into the fire. The girl's face turned white at once. He hurriedly snatched his raincoat from the fire. The multicolored raincoat had been burned black and gray, and the girl sobbed and cried. I was originally a pearl fairy, stole a multicolored raincoat, and unfortunately was shot in the wings by a bad guy, which is your salvation, and I should repay it. I am willing to cook for you and marry you.
But why did you burn my raincoat, don't you believe me? Cuckoo really didn't expect the girl to be angry and sad about this. He was scared and sorry girl, I'm really sorry, I was happy and confused, I didn't think about it and did something stupid, girl, don't you get angry, okay? The girl's sincerity in listening to Cuckoo stopped.
It is also strange that the teardrops that rolled down the girl's face turned into pearls as soon as they landed. The girl bent down to pick them up and give them to the cuckoo. Cuckoo sold pearls, bought acres of land, and built a few houses. The two of them have lived happily ever after. But a few days later, bad luck happened. On this day, the emperor was hunting and passing here, and happened to see the pearl girl washing clothes by the stream. The emperor was stunned, no woman could compare to her. The entourage had long guessed that the emperor had come up with a method. The next day, the door of Qingbu Cuckoo's house was knocked open, and a group of people rushed in without saying a word. Before Cuckoo had time to shout, he was already blocked and dragged out of the house. And the pearl girl was blocked in the house.
A palace-like man reads the holy decree. Two attendants drove the pearl girl and forced her to kneel to receive the order. The emperor wants to take the pearl girl into the palace. The pearl girl knew that the day had come for him to return to the Immortal Pearl Palace, and he wanted to see her again. The pearl girl said coldly to the entourage in the palace: Please wait for me to freshen up and freshen up, please adults. Waiting outside the house for the pearl girl to cover the door, a large group of entourage waited left and right in the courtyard to see the pearl girl, the paper official was suspicious. He kicked open the door and entered to find that the room was empty, and half of the figure was gone. It turned out that the pearl girl came to the house and immediately put on the raincoat and flew away from the rear window.
She was going to fly out in search of her husband, Cuckoo. But where did she know where Cuckoo was being held? The pearl girl called Cuckoo while flying. To this day, Pearl Girl is still looking for her husband, Cuckoo. When the people heard his voice calling her, they called him him.
