During the period of Emperor Xiaowu of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, a Taoist priest came from abroad, and this Taoist priest shouted a few times in Jiankang City, saying that he knew how to spell, so that everyone came around to see.
The people on the street were curious, so they gathered around.
I saw that the Taoist priest opened his mouth wide, first spit out small jade beads, and then began to spit out silver and gold, and kept spitting up.
When people saw this, they applauded. The Taoist priest seemed to work harder and began to spit fire again. Seeing that everyone was applauding, he took another knife and slashed it on the ground a few times, and then swallowed it directly into his stomach.
It's amazing, who did you learn this ability from? Someone in the crowd asked loudly.
The Taoist priest only said that he didn't learn from the old monk, and then said goodbye and left, and did not accept any money from everyone.
There was a person who carried the burden and also watched the Taoist priest's performance, and felt that it was not enjoyable, so he continued to follow the Taoist priest.
After leaving the city gate, the Taoist priest continued to the south. After walking less than two miles, the Taoist priest turned around and said to the man who carried the burden, "I'm tired of walking, let me rest in your cage." ”
Master, you didn't drink too much, did you? On my burden, there are two cages, each of which is not big, and can only hold about ten liters of things, how can you rest in it? ”
I didn't drink, so I asked you, okay? The Taoist priest got impatient.
Okay, okay, as long as you can come in, you are a man of God, and I will carry you away. The man was rejoiced, and immediately laid down his burden and opened a cage.
Look at it. After the Taoist priest finished speaking, he bent down and entered the cage. Strange to say, the Taoist priest looks very tall, but when he enters that small cage, it is just right!
You're really a master! The bearer of the burden was taken aback, did not dare to speak again, gritted his teeth, and tried to pick up the burden.
As a result, the burden was not heavy at all, and the man was even more surprised, only thinking that the Taoist priest was a great immortal, so he quickened his pace and left.
After walking for more than ten miles in one go, the man who carried the burden was hungry, found a tree, put down the burden, sat down in the shade, and took out the rice balls to eat.
God-man, do you eat? "The person who carried the burden asked, you are not delicious, I have delicious food, I can share it with you. The Taoist priest said, but did not come out, but took out a lot of plates and basins from his arms, all of which contained delicacies, including chicken, fish, meat, vegetables, and rice.
When the person who carried the burden saw it, he was no longer surprised, and sat down to eat. He thought that these things were all tricks, but when he ate it in his mouth, he found that they were all true.
After eating for a while, the Taoist priest said, "I have a wife who is a beauty, so it is better to let her come out to eat together." ”
After speaking, the Taoist priest spit out a beauty. The beauty is about twenty years old, very beautiful, and well-dressed. Namei also sat in the cage and sat with the Taoist priest. Both seem to be the same size, and they don't feel cramped in their cages.
After the person who carried the burden saw it, he continued to admire the Taoist priest while continuing to eat while looking at the beauty.
After a while, the Taoist priest went to sleep. The beautiful woman said to the burden-bearer, "I have taken my husband behind my back, and I have found another man, and he has not eaten, so I must ask him to come out and eat with me." If my husband wakes up, you can't tell him. ”
The person who carried the burden thought: "It's amazing, but what about you two putting this set of babies aside?" You spit one, he spits one. But he didn't say that, he just said, "Okay, don't worry, lady." ”
So, the beauty spit out another young man, who was very handsome, and when he came out, he still sat in the cage and ate the food when he saw it.
The three of them were in a cage, and each of them did not get any smaller, but the cage was still spacious, just like when there were only Taoist priests.
Soon, the Taoist priest woke up. The beauty panicked and quickly swallowed the boy into her stomach. The Taoist priest didn't notice it, but when he got up, he saw that the food was finished, and he swallowed the beauty in his stomach.
When you're done eating, let's go. The Taoist priest also put away the utensils and continued in the cage.
When he passed by a house, the burden-bearer took a sip, and the Taoist priest asked him why. The man who carried the burden said that the family was very rich and rich, but it was very bad, and there was no one around him who did not hate him.
Don't worry, I'm here to help you out. ”
After a short rest, the Taoist priest came out of the cage, and with the man who carried the burden, he went to the rich man's house and said to the gatekeeper: "Your master has a good white horse, is he trapped in a big urn?" ”
When the gatekeeper heard this, he was taken aback and quickly asked how the Taoist priest knew.
Tell your master to call a hundred cooks and prepare a meal for a thousand people, which must be good and eaten by the people around him. In this way, his horse will come from the big urn. ”
After speaking, the Taoist priest pointed to a big tree at the door, and the big tree directly became smaller, only the size of a palm. When the gatekeeper saw this, his eyes widened in shock.
When the family heard about it, they hurriedly invited the cook to cook overnight, and sure enough, they invited the people to eat and drink.
When the bearer saw it, he clapped his hands.
Don't worry, there's more. The Taoist priest said.
The Taoist priest went to the rich man's house again and said to the gatekeeper, "Your master's mother is gone, right?" Tell him his mother was in the kitchen kettle. If he wants his mother to come out, let him invite a hundred cooks to cook, and invite the people around him to eat and drink for ten days before his mother can come out. ”
When the family found out, they didn't dare not do it, so they invited the surrounding people to eat for ten days in a row, and gave everyone a lot of money.
On the morning of the eleventh day, the master of the rich family found that his mother was already sitting in his bed. He hurriedly asked his mother about the past ten days, and his mother said: "I don't know, it seems that I have been in prison, although I don't worry about eating and drinking, but I just can't get out." ”
The person who carried the burden saw this scene and admired the Taoist priest even more.
However, when the bearer went to look for the Taoist priest again, the Taoist priest was gone.
