On Swallow Street during the Tang Dynasty, there lived a clay craftsman named Fang Menglong. He is past his prime, but he is still single. Next door to him lives a thug named Ma San, who spends his days loitering around and not doing his job, always doing some things like stealing chickens and dogs.
One night, Ma San got drunk and staggered home in the middle of the night. He was just about to change his clothes when he suddenly heard the cry of a doll next door. Ma San felt very strange, so late, where is the doll that comes**?
He couldn't help but be curious, and walked to Fang Menglong's residence. When he reached the door, he found that the door was hidden and the intermittent cry of a doll could be heard inside. He pushed the door and went in, and saw a clay doll in the room, which was crying with tears streaming down its face.
Ma San thought to himself, this might be some child's toy, accidentally left here. He was going to pick it up and give it to its owner. However, when he reached out to touch the doll, he felt a cold touch, as if it was really a real person.
Suddenly, he remembered the legendary "clay fairy". It is said that this magical clay figure can transform back into a human form at night and revert back to a clay doll during the day. They are often highly skilled, can foresee the future, and can help people achieve their wishes.
Ma San's heart moved, he thought to himself, if this mud doll is really a "mud fairy", then he may be able to make a windfall because of it. With a fluke mentality, he tried to pick up the mud doll, but found that its body was unusually heavy, like a stone.
Ma San used his best strength and finally picked up the mud doll. Suddenly, he felt a lightness in his hand, and the doll really changed back into a human form, into a beautiful woman.
The woman looked at Ma San and said with teary eyes: "I am a 'clay fairy', thank you for saving me." Now, let me grant your wish. ”
Ma San's heart is full of greedy thoughts, wanting wealth, power, and beauty. However, before he could finish speaking, the woman's face suddenly changed and said, "Shut up!" I'm telling you, the 'Clay Fairy' only helps people who are kind-hearted and upright. You greedy, ** villain, how can I fulfill your wishes? ”
Ma San was stunned, he didn't expect that he would be scolded by the "Clay Man Fairy". He hurriedly explained: "Girl, I'm just greedy for a while, please believe me, I will really change my ways." ”
The woman sneered: "Hmph, I can't trust your words." In that case, I'll let you see the power of the 'Clay Man Fairy'. ”
With that, the woman stretched out her hand, and a bolt of lightning suddenly struck Ma San. Ma San was so frightened that he was instantly struck by lightning and turned into a pile of black ash.
Fang Menglong was awakened by the sound and rushed to see what was going on. He saw Ma San turn into black ashes, and his face turned pale with fright. He looked at the woman and said in awe, "'Clay Man Fairy', are you here to save me?" ”
The woman smiled slightly: "Yes, Fang Menglong, you are kind-hearted and upright, so I will help you." That greedy ** Ma San, he suffered by himself, and he deserved it. ”
Fang Menglong looked at the woman gratefully and said, "Thank you, 'Clay Man Fairy'." I will definitely remember your kindness and do more good deeds in the future to repay the society. ”
The woman nodded and smiled, then turned into a puff of green smoke and disappeared into thin air. Since then, Fang Menglong has worked harder and harder to pinch clay figures, spread beauty with his skills, and educate people to cherish kindness and stay away from **. And the greedy Ma San has become a topic of conversation after tea and dinner, warning people not to go to evil.
