Strange Tales of the Ghosts - Chapter 333
[Chapter 333 Old Master Dryad (3)]
The old master had been with the woodcutter for many days, and finally he knew the reason. It turned out that the woodcutter was also a lonely person. Every time he went to the mountains to cut trees, he would always say something to the felled trees before cutting them down. The situation at home is about how you feel. The more he listened, the more curious the old master became, so one day, when the woodcutter was not paying attention, it quietly transformed into a tree that was cut down, and the woodcutter tied herself and carried her back home.
The woodcutter’s house is at the foot of Wuhua Mountain, and there is only a small thatched hut. The firewood that has been cut is placed in front of the door.
“Dad, I’m back.”
“I’m back?”
“Well, I boiled medicine for my mother and went down the mountain to sell firewood, and come back to cook at night.”
“Let’s go again tomorrow, this mountain road is not easy to walk.”
“It’s fine . , I’m used to walking, so I’m not afraid.” The
woodcutter came out of the house, carrying a packet of medicine in her hand, and entered the kitchen. After a while, a smell of medicine came out from the kitchen. The old master jumped out of the kitchen to take a peek, and saw smoke burning in front of the stove, the woodcutter’s unbeautiful face was even more ugly because of the fire, but she still had a smile on her face.
At this moment, an old man walked out of the house. He was so thinly dressed that he had to lean against the wall when he walked. When the old man saw a piece of firewood jumping in front of the window, he was startled and shouted: “Demon… “Strange…” As soon as he finished speaking, the old master pretended to be dead, fell to the ground with a bang, the woodcutter girl came out and saw that it was a firewood, picked it up and said to the old man with a smile, “Father, this is just a firewood. Chai, it’s not a monster.” After speaking, he put the firewood he picked up on the pyre and went to help the old man.
“It’s windy outside, Dad, I’ll help you go back to your room to rest.”
“…” The old man looked at the firewood and thought it was his dazzling eyes, thinking, how can the firewood move? He murmured, “You’re old, and your eyes are useless.”
“Dad, don’t think too much. When I sell the firewood, I’ll go to the town and invite a gentleman to take a look.”
“I don’t want it anymore. I want to buy medicine for your mother.”
“Don’t worry, Dad, with me, I cut more firewood, sold the money, bought medicine for my mother, and then hired a husband for Dad.”
“Hey…” The
old master heard the father and daughter on the pyre. Dialogue, I feel that this family is really pitiful, when the woodcutter girl went to the street to sell firewood, he realized what is the warmth and warmth of human beings even more. Everyone looked at the woodcutter girl and avoided it. The woodcutter girl asked several families if they wanted firewood, but they were all scolded and left. Those people didn’t want firewood, but they couldn’t see the woodcutter girl’s appearance. They all thought that the woodcutter girl had some kind of disease. They were afraid that the woodcutter girl would infect them, so they didn’t buy the woodcutter girl’s firewood. When it was dark, the woodcutter girl had not yet sold the firewood.
The woodcutter girl walked down the street with the firewood on her back and shouted, “Sell firewood, sell firewood, cheap firewood.” The water from the feet splashed on the woodcutter’s body. The clothes were wet, the wood was also wet, and there was still a stench. “Ugly bastard, you are a soul at night!” After the water-splashing man scolded the woodcutter girl, he closed the door.
The old master smelled that smell and wanted to vomit. At this time, he heard the sobbing of the woodcutter girl… The woodcutter girl came to the end of the street with firewood on her back. There is a wonton shop here, and they sell some wontons in the evening. With the smell of the wontons, the woodcutter girl was so hungry that her stomach growled.
“Girl, do you want to eat wontons?” The little boss who sold wontons raised his head and greeted. When he saw it was a woodcutter girl, he said with disgust, “Girl, if you don’t eat wontons, don’t stop me from doing business.”
“Let me see, okay? “The woodcutter didn’t want to see it, she just wanted to smell it.
The little boss shook his head and waved his hand: “Don’t tell me, girl, just stop here, there are still people who come to me to eat wontons, I am also a small book business, girl, please don’t hurt me.
” Hearing this, he lowered his head and slowly walked out of the street…
It was so dark that he could not see the road, the woodcutter girl walked step by step, shedding tears, complaining: “Why do you do this to me… I just want to sell I bought firewood to buy medicine for my mother…” After speaking, she squatted on the ground and began to cry. The woodcutter girl cried very sadly, completely unaware that a piece of firewood had escaped from her back.
The old master ran back to Wuhua Mountain in one breath and found Brother Xiaosen. Brother Xiaosen saw the old master panting and asked: “Is your practice very difficult today? How did you become like this?”
“Brother Xiaosen, I think I want to ask you a question.”
“What’s the problem? You don’t ask the elders, you want to ask me?”
“Do you think the woodcutter girl is a good person?”
Brother Xiaosen glanced at the old master and replied with a smile: “Although she is ugly However, he is very filial and is a good person.”
“Didn’t you say that good people have good rewards? Why does the woodcutter girl have to live so hard?” This is what the old master didn’t understand.
“This…” Brother Xiaosen was a little embarrassed and didn’t know how to answer. After thinking for a long time, he said, “Maybe this is what the elder said. Evil is manifested in blessings, and goodness is obtained in poverty.”
“What do you mean?”
” It means that being spoiled will inevitably lead to bad habits, but it will be hardships and difficulties…”
“I don’t understand.” The old master ran away before Brother Xiaosen finished speaking.
All night, the old master was thinking about the woodcutter girl. The woodcutter girl is ugly and her family is poor, but the woodcutter girl is very filial. Is such a person worth helping? After thinking about it all night, the old master decided to have a deeper understanding of the woodcutter, because the elder said that if you don’t understand it thoroughly, you can’t distinguish between good and
evil , the woodcutter girl went up the mountain again, this time the old master did not become a tree to obstruct, but transformed into a person, a young book boy. While the woodcutter girl was chopping wood, the book boy walked over.
“Dare to ask girl, how do I get to Mount Wuhua?” The
woodcutter girl turned around and saw a stranger suddenly appearing in front of her. She seemed a little nervous, and hurriedly lowered her head: “This is Mount Wuhua.”
“Thank you girl.” The book boy pretended to leave.
The woodcutter girl suddenly shouted: “I don’t know what the little brother is doing in Wuhua Mountain?”
“I came to find my son, and my son came to Wuhua Mountain one step ahead of me.”
“Up and down Wuhua Mountain, there is no one else but my family. Who is your son looking for?” The woodcutter girl looked at the book boy curiously.
The boy shook his head and replied, “I don’t know either. My son ordered me to come.” Then, he wanted to continue walking up the mountain.
When the woodcutter heard this, she put down her axe and ran in front of the book boy. She stopped her, “Little brother, don’t go up the mountain any more, it won’t be good when it gets dark.”
“This…
” Brother, my family lives at the foot of the mountain, and I have never seen any young master come to Wuhua Mountain, I wonder if you heard it wrong?”
“Could it be that there are two Wuhua Mountains here?” The little book boy looked at the woodcutter girl suspiciously.
The woodcutter girl shook her head, seeing the book boy staring at her, she hurriedly lowered her head and replied, “Little brother, I’m ugly, don’t look at me, I’m afraid it will scare you.”
