Everyone didn't understand the old housekeeper's intention, but they still brought a piece of pond mud.

The old housekeeper asked someone to smash the pond mud, and several villagers swung their hammers and smashed them all in a mess.

The old butler approached, took a closer look, and then asked someone to call a basin of water, picked up a piece from the crushed mud and threw it into the basin.

After a while, the piece of mud started to move in the basin.

When everyone saw that there was no mud here, it was clearly an iron catfish, and it was still alive.

Now, everyone was surprised, but they didn't expect that there was a fish hidden in the mud.

The old butler slowly talked about the famine eighty years ago. At that time, most of the people in the village went out, but none of them could come back. Those who stayed in the village survived the fish.

They accidentally discovered fish hiding in the mud to avoid drought, and then they realized that this fish had such ability to pretend to die in the mud and would come back to life when there was water.

He deliberately refused to let the villagers go to the pond to catch fish, just to let more fish hide in the mud in order to help the villagers overcome the difficulties at the last moment.

After hearing this, the villagers were all surprised. With these fish, there was no need to escape from the famine.

The old butler said to the rich man Yun beside him: "Boss, these muds are all from the Yun family. You can tell me what to do?"

Everyone looked at Yun Qianzhu nervously. Yun Qianzhu shook his head with a wry smile and said, "It's now, why are you still divided into your family? Just divide it according to the population. If you can survive, everyone will live together."

Han Xiangzi is a romantic and handsome scholar among the Eight Immortals. The divine flute in his hand is called the purple gold flute, which is made of a divine bamboo in the purple bamboo forest in the South China Sea.

It is said that Han Xiangzi's divine bamboo was given to him by the Seventh Princess of the Dragon King of the East China Sea.

One year, Han Xiangzi wandered around famous mountains and rivers and arrived at the shore of the East China Sea. He heard that there was a dragon girl in the East China Sea, who was good at music and singing and dancing, and wanted to meet her for a while. Therefore, he went to the beach to play the flute every day.

This day is the third day of the March, and it is the day when the Dragon Girl of the East China Sea goes out for a spring outing.

At night, the dragon girl was shocked when she heard a melodious sound of a long flute from the beach.

Han Xiangzi's flute sound disturbed the dragon girl's heart. The wonderful songs hooked her soul away, and she couldn't help but walk towards the beach, turning into a silver eel to play the flute.

After Han Xiangzi finished playing the song, the tide retreated ten miles away.

At this time, he found a stranded silver eel on the beach that had been stumbled, and was looking up at him with tears in his eyes.

Seeing that her expression seemed to be intoxicated by the music, Han Xiangzi was both angry and funny and said, "Eel, eel, do you understand the mystery? If you are a soulmate, please pass my affection to the Crystal Dragon Palace!"

After hearing this, Eel nodded repeatedly.

Han Xiangzi was very surprised. Out of curiosity, he blew the jade screen flute again.

Unexpectedly, the silver eel was well versed in human nature, and in the bright moonlight, the mother-in-law danced and danced a magical dance.

The dance posture is so beautiful and the expression is so strange that it is rare in the world. Even Han Xiangzi, who has traveled all over the famous mountains, was stunned.

The silver eel kept flashing in the moonlight, dancing and spinning...

Its speed was getting faster and faster, and the rhythm became tighter and tighter. Suddenly, a silver light flashed and the eel disappeared.

I saw a fairy-like dragon girl with willow leaves, apricot blossom face, jade bamboo shoots, thin willow waist, golden gauze, lotus skirt. She relaxed her waist, like Chang'e dancing, started, and was as good as swallows plundering water, making Han Xiangzi confused.

The dragon girl danced and sang: "The blue sea is clear and flat, the moon is like a mirror, and the lonely dragon palace hears the sound of the flute. I pray for the phoenix and the phoenix. I wish to dance until dawn."

As the song and dance sounds, the moon gradually sets westward, the tide slowly rises, and it is almost dawn.

Suddenly, a wave rushed over, and the eel and the dragon girl disappeared.

This happened for three nights in a row.

On this day, Han Xiangzi came to the beach to play the flute again.

For some reason, after hyping for most of the day, the Dragon Girl just didn't go out to sea.

Did the Yuping Xiao fail?

He was so angry that he broke his beloved jade flute, but the dragon girl still didn't come up.

Han Xiangzi was walking back in frustration when suddenly he heard someone calling him behind him.

When I looked back, I saw a strange old fisherman.

The old fisherman said good fortune to Han Xiangzi and said, "My husband, the princess thanks for your kindness. She sent me out to pass the message. To be honest, the seventh princess of the Dragon King of the East China Sea sang and danced under the moon a few nights ago. Because the matter was leaked, she was locked in the deep palace by the Dragon King and could not come to meet."

"Today she asked me to offer the branch of Putuo sacred bamboo in the South China Sea for the purpose of making the fairy flute. I hope the brother will make the fairy flute and compose the divine song to save the dragon girl from the sea of ​​suffering!" After that, the old fisherman handed over the branch of the sacred bamboo, and it turned into a breeze and disappeared.

Han Xiangzi made the sacred bamboo into a purple gold flute, and from then on he stopped his thoughts of hanging around in the world, entered the ancient cave in the deep mountains, played the flute day and night to compose music, and indeed developed extraordinary skills.

Later, the Eight Immortals crossed the sea, Han Xiangzi's divine flute collected snake demons, and Miaoqu controlled the turtle and fish, showing off the magical powers of the immortals.

But the Dragon Girl of the East China Sea was punished by the Dragon King as a maid in order to steal a divine bamboo and would never escape.

Legend has it that fishermen in the East China Sea still often hear deep flute sounds on the sea. It is Han Xiangzi missing Long Nu, and he is irritated and playing the flute in the sky.

Once upon a time, there was a scholar who fell in love with a young lady who often dated in an ancient temple.

This day was another date for them. The scholar was very excited all the way, and he was playing small songs with leaves while walking, and he felt very happy.

As I walked, I met a Taoist priest who was walking in a hurry and looked around.

When he saw him, he looked a little cunning and called him and said, "Where is the donor going?"

The scholar smiled and said, "Hello, Taoist priest! I want to see my sweetheart, she is waiting for me in the ancient temple in front of me."

"What?" the Taoist priest exclaimed: "You said the girl in the ancient temple is your sweetheart. Oh my god! Oh my goodness, she was caught by a strange bird. Go and save her!"

When the scholar heard this, he was anxious and asked loudly: "Master, where do you see the strange bird flying?"

"I was accustomed to the strange bird holding the girl in her mouth and flew towards the Black Forest." The Taoist priest pointed to the direction of the Black Forest and said.

The scholar ran away after hearing this, and he had only one thought in his mind to save his sweetheart quickly.

As I was running, I heard a chirping bird crying from above my head. When I looked up, I saw a strange bird using its beak and claws to rub against the tree.

When the scholar saw that it was his lover's shoes, he thought to himself, was he already eaten by a strange bird?

The scholar was shocked and angry. He climbed up the tree a few times and grabbed the monster bird and strangled it to death. The monster bird begged: "Don't kill me! Don't kill me, it's not me who captured your sweetheart. If you let me go, I will help you find it."

"Ha, it's so strange!" said the scholar.

"You are a bird, how can I believe your words?"

"Believe me, only I can help you find your sweetheart." The strange bird said, struggling.

The scholar thought about it and thought it might be useful to keep it, so he let it go and took it on the road with him.

They walked and walked until dark, but they could not find any trace of the strange bird.

The scholar was tired and hungry again. After eating some wild fruits, he leaned against the tree for a while, but unexpectedly fell asleep soon.

When he woke up the next morning, the scholar remembered the strange bird and found it sleeping beside him. He was very happy and thought that the strange bird had not deceived him and decided to treat it like a friend in the future. So he gently woke the strange bird and set off together.

They spent a whole day passing through the dense black forest and came to another forest. The strange bird said: "At the end of the forest, there is a mountain, and a cave under the mountain, where is your sweetheart possible."

When the scholar heard this, he couldn't wait to walk deep into the forest. Sure enough, he saw a high mountain at the end of the forest. There was a big cave at the foot of the mountain. Looking inside, there was a beautiful girl standing next to the cave, crying.

The scholar asked strangely: "Little girl, why are you crying here?"

The girl replied: "I was caught by a strange bird. Can you save me and go home?"

The scholar immediately replied: "Of course I will save you back, but I want to find my sweetheart first, and she was also caught by the strange bird." As he said that, he stepped into the cave, and the girl followed him tightly.

The strange bird said, "Here, I feel that the big bird is not in the cave."

The girl said, "Yes! It may be on the top of the mountain."

After hearing this, the scholar walked out of the cave and looked at the high mountain and said, "Then let's go up the mountain to find it!"

The strange bird flapped its wings and said, "Okay! I'll take you up."

After saying that, he squatted beside the scholar. The scholar jumped and stepped onto the strange bird, pulling the girl in front of him. The strange bird soared into the sky, and in the blink of an eye, he reached the top of the mountain.

They saw the top of the mountain covered with shiny gems and shiny gold.

The scholar looked at these gems and gold only once, and went everywhere to search for his sweetheart. He searched all the places on the mountain, but he couldn't find her.

The scholar sighed and was worried, sitting on the top of the mountain with unbearable pain. (To be continued)
