Mondo Culture Updated on 2024-02-01

There is a Jixian village in Qinzhou, Guangxi, and there is an orphan named Li Long in the village. Originally, the folk customs here were very simple, the villagers were the villagers, and the people often helped each other, but it was only bad for this Li Long, everyone thought that he was an ominous person who would bring disaster to the village, and always wanted to drive him out of the village.

It turned out that this Li Long was picked up by villager Li Shoude outside. Li Shoude, who was in the tenth winter wax moon, went to the mountain to chop firewood, and found the child wrapped in a piece of cloth and thrown on the side of the road, with a jade pendant on his body, which was so cold that he was purple, and he was about to die.

Li Shoude took the child home, and the villagers came to see it. A villager accidentally saw that the child's left hand was actually a broken palm, so he told Li Shoude that the child was born with a broken palm, and it is estimated that his life will not be too smooth in the future. The broken palm is said to be the palm text, our palm pattern usually has two horizontal lines, generally called the emotional line, the wisdom line, these two lines do not intersect, but there are very few people two lines intersect, and even some people only have one line, which is called a broken palm.

From the palmistry, the person with the severed palm is either haunted by bad luck, or he is rich and rich, and the small village in the mountains is still a child picked up, who believes that he can be rich and rich? So everyone thinks this guy is ominous and doomous.

Li Shoude has no wife and no children, and seeing that this child likes it, he doesn't care about what the villagers say. When Li Long was eight years old, Li Shoude suddenly fell ill and died, and the village helped Li Long finish Li Shoude's funeral, and everyone discussed it, so they let him live with a blind craftsman in the village.

The craftsman suona blows very well, and Li Long also learns, Li Long is very smart, and he became a teacher in a few years. When Li Long was 12 years old, the craftsman choked to death while eating, choked to death by a date, and the two adoptive fathers died like this, and the people in the village began to talk about Li Long's severed palm, and they all felt that he was an ominous person, and since then, everyone has avoided Li Long, afraid that he will bring bad luck to themselves.

Li Long can only live alone, fortunately, Li Long can play suona, and people in villages near and far will invite him to do red and white ceremonies, although he doesn't earn much, it is enough for him to live. In addition to being able to play suona, Li Long's ears are also very smart, and he can hear sounds clearly from far away.

One day, on his way back to the village after blowing Suina, he saw a swarm of ants moving, Li Long hurriedly put his ear to the ground, listened to the movement, and heard a rumbling sound from the ground, as if a landslide and the ground cracked.

Li Long hurriedly ran back to the village and said to the village chief that he wanted to **, the village chief felt that this was a big deal, and immediately summoned the villagers and asked Li Long to tell everyone that the villagers would be suspicious of Li Long's words, and they all said that the village had never been **, besides, who could believe what a child with a broken palm said.

Li Long promised on the spot that if it didn't happen, I would leave the village, and I would never come back, and the village chief also helped to say, Li Long, this kid didn't lie, let's believe him once. So the people began to evacuate to the mountain. In the middle of the night, ** really came, the movement was really not small, and the house collapsed.

The next day, I heard that there were a lot of ** in the next village, which saved the lives of the whole village! The villagers were very grateful to Li Long, who had treated him badly in the past, but he did not hate them for this, but saved them, and the whole village treated him as his benefactor from then on, and everyone respected him very much, and never mentioned his broken palm again.

One day, Li Long went out to blow suona, and on the way back to the village, he accidentally bumped into a person, this person seemed to be in a hurry, and the force of the collision was very strong, and the jade pendant that Li Long hit fell to the ground. This jade pendant is the one he wore when Li Shoude picked him up, so it was naturally not partial. Li Shoude also instructed him to keep it properly and not to lose it, maybe one day he would be able to unravel his life experience.

The passer-by hurriedly picked up the jade pendant from the ground, and looked at it carefully, the jade pendant was engraved with a unicorn, which was very exquisitely carved. Seeing that this jade pendant is not cheap, no matter how good it is, it is someone else's, and this person returned the jade pendant and said sorry.

Li Long walked home, at the entrance of the village Li Long saw a monster lying on the side of the big stone, as soon as he saw Li Long, the monster immediately got up, respectfully bowed his head and bowed. Li Long was scared and wondered, what kind of animal is this? Why does it look so weird? Why are you still respectful to me? The monster said at this time, I am the unicorn of your jade perry.

When Li Long heard this, he quickly took out the jade pendant and looked at it, and sure enough, the unicorn on it was gone, which surprised him greatly, and the unicorn said, there will be a grandmother passing by here, if she asks to see your palm, you must not show her. After speaking, I was very worried and advised, you must remember what I said. Then the unicorn disappeared.

Li Long glanced at the jade pendant again, and when the unicorn was again, he felt like a dream, and he didn't know that his adventure had begun. In the afternoon, someone came over to ask Li Long to blow the suona, and Li Long rode a donkey over. On the way, I met a grandmother, saying that she was going to the next village, and she was too old to walk, Li Long saw that the old lady was indeed very old, so he helped her on the back of the donkey and led the donkey forward.

Grandma went up and said to Li Long, thank you, young man, I'm good at showing people, I look at you, you have an extraordinary temperament, I'll show you the palm, look at your future fate. This was originally a trivial matter, but Li Long remembered what Qilin had just told him, and no matter what Grandma said, he just wouldn't stretch out his hand.

This mother-in-law's face changed as she spoke, hurry up and put your palms up, otherwise don't want to leave today. As he spoke, the hooked nose of the eagle obviously became bigger, and in the blink of an eye, which was the hooked nose, it was directly an eagle's beak, Li Long saw that something was wrong, and the donkey didn't want it, so he ran away with his head in his hands.

Then he saw the grandmother swoop down into the sky, and turned into an eagle, and rushed towards him. At the last moment, the unicorn came out of the jade pendant and fought with the eagle, who retreated again and again, and finally ran away. Qilin said, hurry back to the village, they will chase after them immediately, Li Long said, who wants to chase after them? Qilin said, don't be afraid, it's just a team of soldiers, let the villagers help you resist.

Back in the village, Li Long asked the village chief to gather the villagers, it was Li Long who saved the lives of the whole village, but now he is in danger, and the villagers say that they can't ignore it and are willing to obey the order. In the evening, Jixian Village was quiet, and a group of soldiers wearing armor came on the road in the distance, and when they arrived at the entrance of the village, a white-bearded old man asked him, where does Li Long of your village live?

The old man said that he had gone to Xishan, and before he had returned, the group of people went straight to Xishan. There is a long valley in the West Mountain, which is an important road that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Soon after the soldiers entered the valley, it was getting dark, and nothing could be seen.

There was no light in the mountain, so there was a line above my head, and I basically couldn't see anything. Suddenly, a suona sounded on the hillside, and for a while, the entire valley was lit by fire as if it were daylight. The villagers, armed with torches, bows and arrows, kicked the rocks and rolling logs on the rocks, and rained down on the group of soldiers, and it was not long before the group of people who had beaten them threw off their armor and fled without a trace.

The villagers cheered, and at this time, Yu Perry flew out of the unicorn and told the truth of the matter, it turned out that the king of Guangping, who was stationed at the border pass, had two concubines, and they were pregnant at the same time. According to the ancestral system, the first born boy is the eldest son and will be made heir. Li Long's mother took the lead in giving birth, and Li Long deserved to be the heir of King Quang Binh.

When the child was born, the midwife saw the severed palm in his hand and held it to the king of Guangping, and the surrounding staff said that the child would do great things in the future. Do you think this severed palm is ominous? It depends on who it is, but unfortunately Li Long's mother died not long after.

The other concubine felt that the opportunity had come, and he secretly invited a mage, who brought an eagle, and while Li Long was playing alone in the garden, the eagle rushed over and took him away. The eagle originally wanted to kill Li Long, but Qilin appeared in time to save him and put him on the side of the road, which happened later.

Besides, the king of Guangping, the eldest son was missing and could not be found, so he had to set up the younger son as the heir, the concubine has also been looking for Li Long for many years, only when Li Long died, his son could sit on the throne, the person who hit him that day was the concubine's subordinate, and the old grandmother was the eagle brought by the mage.

Qilin said to Li Long, the people of the king of Guangping will come soon, they will take you back to the house, and sure enough, a large group of people rushed over here, and the general who led the team knelt down and respectfully asked the prince to return to the house when he saw Li Long. Li Long turned around and knelt down in front of the villagers and kowtowed three times.

The village chief hurriedly said, you are now a noble person, how can you kowtow to us? Li Long said, no matter how far I go, I can't forget the place where I was raised and my savior. The villagers present were all in tears, and Li Long was even more reluctant to say goodbye to the villagers.

Li Long returned to the royal palace, and King Quang Binh re-established him as his heir. In the following decades, Li Long inherited the throne and governed well, so that the people in his territory lived very prosperous and peaceful.

When Li Long was 60 years old, he passed the throne to his son, and then returned to Jixian Village, where he played chess and drank tea with a group of old friends every day.
