Yangguan Avenue is full of people and lively. I sat in a roadside tavern, brush in hand, and concentrated on writing a legend. At this moment, a girl with a smile on her face walked slowly and beckoned to me: "Sir, what are you compiling?" Look at your pen walking the dragon and snake, write vividly. I put down my notes and looked up at her: "No, I'm just making up some folklore." I wonder if this girl is interested in the folklore of Fengyang? "I love hearing these old legends the most! The woman's eyes lit up and she sat down across from me. I cleared my throat and began to speak.
In a small mountain village on the border of Fengyang County, there is a young man named Du Chen in the village. His parents died young, and he was adopted and raised by the village chief. When the village chief saw that he was very intelligent, he passed on his carpenter's skills and made him a carpenter in the village. Du Chen's carpentry skills are superb, and the villagers often come to ask him to make furniture. One day, Du Chen was polishing a rosewood chair in the workshop. An old man with a dusty face walked in, panting, apparently walking for a long time. "The old man has inconvenient legs, can you let me rest here? The old man asked. "Please. Du Chen stepped aside a chair. The old man looked Du Chen up and down and nodded: "Good young man, I see that you are good-looking, serious and responsible, and you will definitely make great achievements." Du Chen blushed: "You won the award, I'm just doing some carpentry work." "This old man's surname is Zhou, and he is actually a martial arts master who has lived in seclusion for many years. He took a fancy to Du Chen's personality and decided to pass on his unique skills. "Little brother, you and I are destined, how about I pass on your unique martial arts? Zhou Xianweng said. "Thank you very much for the kindness of the immortal Weng, I will work hard to repay you. Du Chen was overjoyed. So, Zhou Xianweng began to teach Du Chen the secrets of martial arts. Du Chen was diligent and hardworking, and it didn't take long for him to develop an amazing skill. He began to act chivalrous in the rivers and lakes and rescued many good people. One day, Du Chen was walking on the street and met Xiao Rong, the daughter of the village chief. Xiao Rong was born extremely beautiful, and countless men in the village were fascinated by her. "It turned out to be Brother Du, I have admired your name for a long time! Xiao Rong said with a red face. Since then, Du Chen has often visited Xiao Rong. A year later, Du Chen proposed to the village chief and married Xiao Rong as his wife. At the beginning of their marriage, Du Chen and Xiao Rong's life was very sweet. Every morning, Xiao Rong will put a table full of breakfast food. When Du Chen came back from practice, Xiao Rong diligently massaged him to relax. The two are in love. One evening, Du Chen received a task from the government of a neighboring county and needed to leave for a while. On this day, he finished his busy work and returned home in the middle of the night. Just as he pushed the door in, a hand suddenly grabbed his arm and pulled him hard to the cellar behind the house. The cellar was dark and there were no fingers, and Du Chen couldn't see anything clearly. He was about to speak, but a hand suddenly covered his mouth. "Don't make a sound! I'm Li Sisi! A woman's voice came.
It turned out that it was Xiao Rong's cousin Li Sisi who pulled him. "Sister Li, what's going on? Du Chen was puzzled. Li Sisi whispered: "Today I went to Xiao Rong's house and bumped into her talking secretly with a strange Taoist priest in the house!" When they saw me coming, they hurriedly hid the poison in their hands! I think they're plotting against you! "What do you mean. Xiao Rong is planning to harm me? Du Chen was shocked. "That's right! I've heard them say they're going to poison you while you sleep. I come to warn you, don't go in! Li Sisi said nervously. Du Chen believed that his wife would harm him, and he decided to find out the truth himself. "Sister Li, you wait for me here. I'm going to go in and have a look. Li Si thought about stopping him, but Du Chen had already pushed the door in. The room was dark and dark, and Xiao Rong and the Taoist priest were nowhere to be found. Suddenly, the sound of breaking the sky behind Du Chen was loud! I only heard a loud sound of "dang", and a big knife slashed at the wall behind Du Chen, which was exactly the back of Du Chen's heart! Du Chen slammed to one side, able to avoid the fatal blow. I saw that the Taoist priest was holding a big knife and slashed at him again. Du Chen used his martial arts and fought fiercely with the Taoist priest in the house. The two fought for dozens of rounds, and the Taoist priest was defeated by Du Chen's deep internal strength, and he was shocked out of the house by a palm and fell heavily in the courtyard. At this time, Li Sisi also ran in. I saw Xiao Rong standing aside, surprised and panicked. "Xiao Rong, what are you plotting with this Taoist priest? Say it! Du Chen asked loudly. Xiao Rong cried and knelt on the ground begging for mercy. When the Taoist priest saw that the general trend had gone, he also quickly kowtowed and admitted his mistake. It turned out that this Taoist priest's name was Gong Changfeng, and he was instructed to steal Du Chen's martial arts secrets. He teamed up with Xiao Rong and prepared to poison Du Chen while he was sleeping. Who knew that Li Sisi came to make trouble, and the matter was revealed. Du Chen immediately handed over the two to the government. Under torture to extract a confession, Gong Changfeng confessed that Xiao Rong's father instructed him to steal Du Chen's martial arts method. Xiao Rong's father is a Jianghu man who has always coveted Du Chen's martial arts, so he instructed his daughter to join forces with Gong Changfeng to assassinate. After this incident, Du Chen was completely desperate for Xiao Rong and filed for divorce.
For many days after that, Du Chen's mood remained low. Fortunately, Li Sisi was on the side to take care of him and slowly comfort his injured heart. "Big brother, don't be sad. A woman like Xiao Rong is not worthy of a good man like you! Li Sisi comforted. Du Chen nodded: "Thanks to your timely rescue, I escaped the catastrophe." How can I repay your kindness? "Big brother, you're laughing, I'm just doing my best. Li Sisi blushed. "I think Sister Li is gentle and considerate, which is really rare. I'm going to love you so much that I'll never get bored. Du Chen said. Since then, Li Sisi has married Du Chen and taken care of housework. Du Chen's carpenter shop business is booming, and the family's wealth is accumulating. During the day, Du Chen was busy in the carpenter's shop. When she returns home in the evening, Li Sisi always puts a table full of steaming meals. After dinner, she will gently massage Du Chen, doing her best as a wife. A month later, Du Chen officially proposed to Li Sisi. Li Sisi readily agreed. The two had a lively wedding and have been married ever since. Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, the two have grown old together. Whenever descendants ask about the secret of their marriage, Du Chen always smiled and said, "Our encounter is destined to come together." There are never so many coincidences. After listening to my story, the girl couldn't help but clap her hands and exclaim: "What a wonderful story that Mr. told the story!" The plot is full of ups and downs and surprises. I was so fascinated that I couldn't have imagined that it would turn out to be like this! I clasped my fists and said, "I feel very honored to receive your compliment." Shall I tell you a few more legendary stories another day? The girl smiled and nodded, and got up to take her leave. I looked at her departing back, and thought to myself that this Fengyang story could be made up in a second part!
