Folk tale: In the end, one person was left in the nunnery, but it was a happy ending in the end
In a small remote mountain village, there is a strange legend. It is said that in the quiet nunnery behind the village, every full moon night, there will always be a mysterious woman singing in a low voice in the nunnery, singing tactfully and melodiously, but with a little unspeakable grievance. The villagers said that it was the spirit of a nun who died early in the nunnery, and she wandered here night and night because of an unfinished relationship.
There is a young man in the village named Applejack, who is brave and curious, and is interested in the legend. One summer night, when the moon is bright and round, Applejack decides to go to the nunnery alone to find out what the legend is all about.
The nunnery is located in a dense bamboo forest, which is particularly quiet at night. Applejack walks through the bamboo forest to the front of the hermitage, only to see that the door of the hermitage is closed, and there is an indescribable strange atmosphere around her. He gently pushed open the door and walked inside.
It was pitch black inside the hermitage, and only the moonlight filtered in through the windows, illuminating some corners. Applejack walks cautiously, for fear of disturbing the spirits in the nunnery. Suddenly, a soft singing voice came, and the voice was like a cry and a chill.
Applejack follows the song and arrives in front of a side hall. He pushed open the door and saw a woman in white sitting in front of the window, singing in a low voice. The woman had a delicate face, long hair and a shawl, but there was a hint of sadness in her eyes. Applejack was shocked, could this be the legendary nun?
The woman doesn't seem to notice Applejack's arrival and continues to sing. Applejack stepped forward and asked softly, "Girl, are you a nun in this nunnery, and why are you singing here?"
Hearing this, the woman turned around and her eyes fell on Applejack. A flash of surprise flashed in her eyes, and then she regained her composure. She spoke slowly, with a tremor in her voice: "I...... I'm not a nun, I'm just a lost traveler. ”
Applejack is even more puzzled, and he looks at the woman in front of him and realizes that although she is dressed in white, she has not shaved her hair, and she does not look like a nun in the nunnery. He asked, "Girl, why are you here? ”
The woman sighed and slowly explained her background. It turned out that her name was Xiaofang, and she was a woman from other places. Because of the changes in her family, she was forced to run away from home and wandered all the way here. She wanted to spend the night in a nunnery, but she didn't expect to encounter the strange thing in the legend.
Fang tells Applejack that when she arrives, she feels that the atmosphere in the nunnery is strange, as if something is secretly peeking at her. Every full moon night, she would hear the strange singing, and her heart was terrified. She had tried to leave, but every time she reached the gate of the hermitage, she felt a strong wave of vertigo, as if something was preventing her from leaving.
Applejack was surprised when she heard this. He thought of the legend in the village, could it really be the spirit of the nun who died young, and he decided to help Xiaofang find out the truth and solve this strange mystery.
Applejack begins to search for clues in the nunnery. He found that some of the doors of some rooms in the nunnery were closed, as if they were hiding some secrets. He opened the doors one by one, and found strange objects in each room, some like magic weapons, some like relics.
Applejack examines the items closely, trying to find clues. Suddenly, he found a yellowed ancient book in the corner of a room. He opened the page and saw that there was a story about the nuns in the nunnery.
It turned out that the nun who died early was named Huixin, and she had been deeply in love with a man when she was young. However, for various reasons, the two ended up not being able to get together. Disheartened, Huixin chose to become a nun. But she never forgot that love in her heart, and every full moon night, she would sing here to express her thoughts.
Applejack couldn't help but feel emotional. He thought of what happened to Xiao Fang, maybe it was because she inadvertently broke into this forbidden place that she encountered these strange things. He decides to find Huixin's relics and help Xiaofang solve the mystery.
After some searching, Applejack finally finds Huixin's relic, a string of Buddhist beads, in a hidden room. He returns to Xiaofang with the beads and tells her that this is the key to solving the mystery.
After hearing this, a glimmer of hope flashed in Xiao Fang's eyes. She took the bead and held it tightly in her hand. Suddenly, a strange light emanated from the beads, illuminating the entire nunnery.
After the light dissipates, Applejack and Fang are surprised to find that the atmosphere in the nunnery has become peaceful and peaceful, and there is no longer the strange aura of the previous one. Xiao Fang also felt a lot more relaxed, as if some kind of power that bound her had been untied.
Applejack and Fang smiled at each other, knowing that this strange mystery had finally been solved. Fang, thanks to Applejack's help, decides to leave the place and start her life anew.
Applejack sent Fang out of the nunnery, and he stood at the door of the nunnery, looking at Fang's distant back, feeling a sense of relief in his heart. He thought that although he still left one person in the nunnery in the end, it could be regarded as a happy ending after all.
Since then, the strange thing in the nunnery has never happened again, and the villagers no longer talk about the legend. Applejack has become a hero in the village for this brave expedition, and has been respected and praised by everyone.
However, Applejack always has an indescribable feeling in her heart. He often thought of the woman singing in the nunnery, and the sadness and helplessness in her eyes. He knew that although the mystery had been solved, Huixin's knot would never be solved.
As the days passed, Applejack's life returned to peace. He no longer goes to the nunnery, nor does he talk about the strange past. However, on a full moon night, he would always stand in front of the window, looking at the nunnery in the distance, silently praying in his heart that Huixin would rest in peace.
Time flies, and a few years have passed. One day, Applejack meets a strange nun at the entrance of the village. The nun's face was kind, and there was a light of wisdom in her eyes. When she saw Applejack, she smiled and said hello.
Applejack is surprised that he doesn't know the nun. But he still politely replied and asked, "Mrs. Shi, are you here to make a fortune in the village?"
The nun shook her head, smiled and said, "I came here to find an old friend. ”
"Old man?" Applejack's heart moved, could it be that this nun has anything to do with Huixin?
The nun nodded and continued, "Yes, the old man I am looking for is named Huixin. She used to be a nun here, but she was nowhere to be found. I've heard that something strange has happened here, so I've come to look for clues about her. ”
Applejack listens to this, and her heart is excited. He didn't expect that after many years, there would still be people who remembered Huixin and came to look for her. He decided to tell the nun about Huixin's past and how he solved the strange mystery.
After listening to Applejack's story, a relieved smile appeared on the nun's face. She tells Applejack that she is actually Huixin's older sister and has been searching for Huixin's whereabouts for years. She thanks Applejack for solving the mystery and allowing Huixin to rest in peace.
Applejack felt a pang of relief in her heart. He knew that Huixin's wish had finally been fulfilled and she could rest in peace.
The nuns stayed in the village for a few days to exchange Dharma and impart wisdom to the villagers. Her arrival has brought a breath of fresh air to this remote mountain village. The villagers expressed that they wanted to learn from the wisdom and compassion of the nuns and contribute to the development of the village.
On the day the nun leaves, Applejack takes her to the entrance of the village. He looked at the back of the nun in the distance, and his heart was full of gratitude and respect. He knew that although he was still left alone in the nunnery in the end, it was a happy ending after all. Because in the process, he not only solved the strange mystery, but also helped Huixin and her senior sister fulfill their wishes.
From then on, Applejack cherishes the life in front of him even more, and he strives to be a brave, kind, and wise person. And the legend about the nunnery has gradually faded out of people's memories with the passage of time. However, in Applejack's heart, that experience will forever be etched in her heart and become one of the most precious memories of her life. The days went on like this, plain and fulfilling. Applejack has earned the respect of the villagers for his bravery and kindness, and has gradually become the backbone of the village. He often helps the villagers solve their problems, imparts some practical skills and knowledge, and gives the small mountain village a new life and vitality.
One spring, the hillside near the nunnery is filled with flowers, attracting many tourists. Applejack also takes the villagers up the mountain to pick wildflowers in preparation for a spring celebration.
As they approached the nunnery, they suddenly heard a soft singing. The song is tactful and melodious, like the sound of heaven, which makes people feel refreshed. Applejack and the villagers are captivated by the song and stop to listen.
They followed the song and came to the door of the nunnery. I saw that the door of the nunnery was wide open, and a woman in white was standing in front of the door, singing the familiar song in a low voice. Her face is delicate, her long hair is shawl, and she looks like a fairy descending to earth.
Applejack and the villagers are attracted by the woman's beauty and temperament, and they all come up to greet her. The woman smiled in response, her voice as melodious as a clear spring. She tells Applejack and the villagers that she is the new nun in the nunnery, named Jinghui. She came here to pass on Huixin's legacy, continue to practice Buddhism, and benefit all sentient beings.
Applejack listens to this, and her heart is excited. He knew that Huixin's wish had finally been truly inherited. He pays his respects to Jinghui and invites her to join in the village's festivities.
Jinghui happily agrees, and joins Applejack and the villagers to go up the mountain to pick wildflowers and celebrate the arrival of spring. They frolicked and played in the sea of flowers, laughing and laughing one after another. At that moment, the whole mountain village was filled with joy and peace.
After the celebration, Jinghui stayed in the nunnery and continued her spiritual life. Applejack also often visits her at the nunnery to exchange ideas with her. Their friendship grew deeper and deeper and became an integral part of each other's lives.
With the passage of time, the nunnery gradually regained its former tranquility and serenity under the leadership of Jing Hui. Many tourists come here to catch a glimpse of Jing Hui and listen to her teachings. The nunnery has also become an important place for cultural exchange, attracting more and more people to visit and study.
Applejack also grows and improves along the way. He learned more skills and knowledge and became a leader in the village. He led the villagers to develop agriculture and improve their living conditions, giving this small mountain village new vitality and hope.
Eventually, with the support and encouragement of the villagers, Ajay was elected as the head of the village. He continues to lead the villagers on the path to prosperity and happiness, filling the entire village with hopes and dreams.
And the legend about the nunnery was gradually forgotten by people with the arrival of Jinghui and the development of the village. However, in Applejack and Jinghui's hearts, that experience will forever be etched in their hearts and become one of the most precious memories of their lives.
They often think of the once strange and mysterious nunnery, the story and wish of Huixin. They knew that although they were still left alone in the nunnery, it was a happy ending after all. Because in the process, they not only solved that strange mystery, but also found their true selves and achieved inner growth and transformation.
