Chapter 550
Qingniu Mountain is located at the southern end of Xiushan. There is also a natural stone cave at the "Niu Head", which is called "Zhunji Rock"; "Niu Tai" has a rock in the north and south, just like two squatting cow legs, which is called "Lying Foot".
On the mountain, the plants and trees are lush and green all year round, so this mountain is named "Qingniu Mountain".
Less than a hundred meters east of "Niuto", there is another hanging water hill called "Daopeng Mountain". The shape of the mountain is also quite strange, just like the two "Raopeng" on the river ground, which is round and flat.
The soil on the mountain is soft and plump, and people call it "scent mud", which is best used to plant flowers and plants.
Speaking of these two mountains, there is such a myth and legend in the local area:
It is said that a long time ago, this place was the center of the East China Plain, with endless fertile land, and locals also make a living by farming.
At that time, a family had a big yellow cattle. The cattle was surprisingly large and powerful. It plowed the fields as fast as the wind, and it took more than a dozen people to take turns to drive.
Its appetite is amazing, and it requires eighteen strong men to take turns to 18 villages to grazing, so there is a song about "Eat all over the Shibaao Zhoushan, and there is a cattle breeder in Aoao."
This cow is not only capable, but also has a gentle temperament. Therefore, the owner loves and respects it like a god.
One year, the late autumn, the late rice was just harvested, and the climate suddenly became abnormal, and the heavy snow fell sharply. It fell for seven days and seven nights, and the cold land was frozen everywhere. The grass was frozen to death by the heavy snow, and the sacred cows were so edible that there was no grass to eat.
The eighteen cowherds were helpless, and the cow owner was even more anxious, as if waiting for the ice and snow to melt, the sacred cow must starve to death.
In desperation, the cattle owner ordered the two piles of rice porridges that had just been cut and had not had time to thresh for the divine cattle to eat.
This move was strongly opposed by the divine cow. It could not bear to destroy the rice that its owner and it had worked hard to plant. When the cowherd drove it to a distance from the rice buns, it stopped. Looking at the two piles of rice buns in front of it, it would not leave if anyone drove it.
The owner of the cow ordered the cowherd to pull, and one could not pull two, and two could not pull three, but it still didn't work. The owner of the cowherd simply asked the eighteen cowherds to pull together.
The sacred cow fell to the ground, kneeling on the ground with his front legs as if he wanted, and supported his hind legs with force.
The eighteen cowherds used all their strength to pull and pull out the bull's nose plug, which turned into a piercing nose, but the divine cow did not move at all, and roared towards the sky, shaking the earth and the mountains.
The owner of the cow pity the divine cow and ordered the shepherd to send it to feed it. However, the divine cow closed his eyes and shook his head to thank him, but he refused to open his mouth.
The cow owner had no choice but to watch the divine cow starve.
In this way, the divine cow was hungry for twenty-seven days and nights, and shed tears for twenty-seven days. The tears flowed out like a hot spring, and it became more and more rapid, rushing out of an abyss, separating the cow and rice puffs from the two places. The divine cow was also dying from then on.
After the death of the divine cow, the owner of the cow and the eighteen cowherds not only brought filial piety to mourn it, but also built a seven-day and seven-night temple for it, and offered two piles of rice canopies as sacrifices forever.
There is a hunter named Xun in Mingyu Mountain. His ancestors have been hunting for generations, so when he arrived at Xun Yun’s generation, after he took the hunting tools, his family was already so poor that he had no more than a second.
Is his archery good or bad? It is because he is not good at archery and cannot be eaten. On the contrary, in his archery skills, no animal can escape from his arrows.
Later, as long as Xun Yun took the arrow out, the animals several miles away ran far away, so he could not see the animals at all when he went out, and he could not catch them.
After his wife gave birth to a son, she gradually became blind and could not see it.
Xun Yun's son was fifteen years old and could not say a decent word, almost a mute.
Xun Yun felt uncomfortable. No one at home inherited his hunting profession, and no one at home had successors.
Although there is no way, I still have to live every day!
Later, an old lady said to him: "The sun rises to the highest point and is about to fall, so no matter how good your archery is, the animals will run away when they see you, so you can't hit you, are you also reaching the peak?"
Xun Yun wanted to listen, but the old lady stopped talking. He thought: It seems that God asked him to change his career, so he smashed the bow and arrow and threw it away.
But what should I do if my family has no land? I can only go out to mine and work as a coolie.
If your wife and children really don’t have food, then go out to beg for food, just ask the children to lead the way and go out to beg for food.
When he doesn't hunt, some nearby animals will come back 66, and sometimes some small animals spend the night at his house. This is very interesting. If he is determined not to hunt, he will really stop fighting.
Some little rabbits, foxes, and some small animals came, sometimes they secretly feed some things and began to have a little compassion for the animals.
One day, Xun Yun's son Xun Sheng ran to the bottom of the Eagle Rock and saw the old lady sitting by the road to rest. He wanted to go over and rest for a while, so he sat down.
The old lady asked, "Are you the son of Xun Yun's family? Are you Xiao Xunsheng?"
Xun Sheng said, "Yes, my name is Xun Sheng. How do you know? I have never seen you."
The old lady said, "Although you have never seen it, your father has seen it. Your father has good archery skills and good character. I told him not to hunt, and he would not fight. If he continues to hunt now, he might be able to do me a favor."
The old lady was a little sad as she spoke, saying, "It doesn't matter. If your father doesn't hunt anymore, there are indeed many animals that can be avoided being shot by him, so it's also a good thing."
"I want to have a desperate battle in a few days. If I have a few more things, you should take good care of my son, can you?"
Xun Sheng said without thinking, "Don't worry, just cover it with me."
The old lady said, "I have nothing to thank you. There is water in this cave. You can take it back and wash your mother's eyes. After 49 days, she will be able to see her eyes back."
At this time, Xun Sheng was very happy. He said happily: "Oh, my mother's eyes finally have a rule of law!" He kept yelling and screaming, and then suddenly woke up.
When Xun Sheng’s mother heard this, she said, “Why did this child speak? It turned out to be a dream.”
This is something in a dream. After he woke up, he told his parents about the things in the dream.
The old couple had a surprise, were overjoyed, hugged their heads and cried bitterly.
The son was able to speak because he was sixteen years old and could not speak. The old lady must be a fairy doctor. Then the water in the Eagle Rock would definitely cure her eyes, and they believed it unswervingly.
As soon as the sky was dawn, Xun Yun stopped mining, Xun Sheng stopped begging for food, and the father and son went to the Eagle Rock.
As a result, when we first arrived at Eagle Rock, two animals were fighting in front of us. The heart-wrenching screams kept ringing, and then we saw a little white fox running desperately.
Xun Sheng roared at it, and the fox was stunned for a moment, then whimpered beside him.
When Xun Sheng saw that it was covered in blood and had many injuries on his body, he picked it up.
At this time, Xun Yun saw a golden leopard and a fox fighting in the forest ahead. How could the fox fight?
As a result, he ran over and saw that the golden leopard was biting the neck of a white fox. In order to delay time, the white fox bit the leopard's ears and kept not letting go, and biting them tightly. It was obvious that the fox was about to be bitten to death.
He had chased this leopard for several years, but it bit many pigs and dogs from the mountain villagers' homes, which was considered a lot of evil.
Xun Yun and the leopard have been fighting for several years but still can't fight. It is very cunning and has been run away many times.
When Xun Yun saw the leopard today, he would definitely not let it go. He picked up a stone and rushed forward to join the fight.
The leopard wanted to run away when he saw someone coming, but the fox bit its ears and it couldn't run away at all.
After Xun Yun arrived, he smashed the leopard with a stone and finally killed him.
Although the fox was saved, it was too serious and was already dying.
When Xun Sheng saw that the white old lady wasn't this fox? Because he made a promise to the old lady in his dream, he was very sure now because he promised to treat the little white fox well.
They carried the little white fox home and carried the dead leopard back.
Xun Sheng wanted to raise the fox and he should feed it something, but the little fox didn't eat anything. How could he survive if he didn't eat it?
They saw the little fox whimpering at the leopard, thinking that the little fox wanted to eat leopard meat, so they cut the leopard and cooked it for the little fox to eat.
The little fox really started eating. After eating a leopard for many days, the injury was healed.
