Half of the people in the market came to watch "people calling cows their father".
The term "father" was first used by "Qiang people to call their father". Later, when the Qiang people entered the Han Dynasty and the ethnic groups merged, during the Han Dynasty, "Northerners called their father "father".
Coupled with the influence of players, everyone in this market basically knows the meaning of "Dad".
It was precisely because I knew that I was surprised.
Cow as a father?
Regarding [Fate], both players and aborigines have many conjectures, and they are basically related to "reincarnation".
The player screamed "Dad" very clearly and cried heartbreakingly. The scalper also shed tears and licked the "calf" affectionately.
For a time, most of the onlookers recognized this "father-son" relationship.
The cowherd said: "You strangers have only been here for more than a month, but I, the cow, have been more than three years old. How...how could it be your father?"
The matter involved the mystery of reincarnation. Some people were curious about the details and asked the player: "Brother, please don't cry yet. Tell me, how can you tell at a glance that it is your father's?"
The player was about forty years old, crying profusely, and was quite embarrassed.
When I saw the Cowherd, others had questions, so he cried and answered at the same time. However, because he was crying too much, he was breathless, and he stumbled over his answer, so that no one could hear clearly.
It seemed that before his father died, he said that if he could see him in the next life, he would put his hands on his hands to believe it. When he got up this morning, he felt uneasy until he saw the sick cow. For some reason, the cow looked exactly like the one he used to lie on the bed.
old father.
He was so excited that he couldn't control himself, so he rushed forward and called "Dad". Then, before he could touch his palm, the ox licked his palm first.
Therefore, this cow must be the reincarnation of its deceased father.
At this point, the player let go of the scalper, knelt down facing the cowherd, and begged: "Please, give me a chance to fulfill my filial piety!"
While praying, you kowtow.
The cowboy was speechless, not knowing what to say.
You fulfill your filial piety, but looking at this posture, if I agreed, would you just lead the cow and leave?
The man who held the cow wanted to refuse, but he couldn't. And when he asked him to agree, he was unwilling to do so.
His ox was nothing unusual in the past. It was only after the appearance of [The Stranger] that it became known as the [Unknown Ox], and it also had an aversion to eating grass.
At first, the ignorant cowherd was puzzled by the meaning of [Unknown]. Later, when he found out that his cow was actually a treasure, the cow had stopped eating grain and was getting thinner day by day.
He took care of it day and night, and only fed some twigs and green seedlings.
There was a rich man in the village. Hearing that he had a precious cow, he came to see it. What he saw was an "unknown sick cow" and he asked him for its price.
The cowherd man was greedy and asked for ten gold pieces. The rich man asked for the hardware, but the cowherd man refused to sell it.
Later, the oxen became so skinny that they refused to eat the young crops. The man who took care of the oxen looked for a rich man again, but the rich man refused to give out even a single piece of gold, let alone hardware.
The cowherd was helpless, so he went to the market to sell it. He was looking for two golds, so he sold half the gold. In the end, someone asked for the price, and he was called "Dad".
Is there not a single gold left in this battle?
The player kowtowed for a long time, but when he saw that the cowherd had no response, he suddenly felt sad, hugged the cow and cried bitterly: "Dad, the child is unfilial!"
The tears were pouring down, which was very moving.
People around were talking a lot. Some said that the player's "filial piety is not expensive, but his actions are commendable" and advised the Cowherd to fulfill his filial piety; some said that it was not easy for the Cowherd to raise cattle, so he had to subsidize him with some financial aid.
After talking a lot, someone asked the player how much money he had.
The player rummaged through his clothes and only found a pile of forty or fifty coins.
The Cowherd looked embarrassed, and the situation became tense.
Suddenly a player said: "I don't have much money, but I don't want others to make trouble for me. I am willing to give all the five baht I have to help my filial son fulfill his filial piety." After that, he took a dozen dollars and gave it to the cowherd.
The cowboy took it subconsciously.
After ten interest, another player handed over some money.
Then, the aboriginal people came forward one after another, praising the player loudly for "devoting filial piety to the player, making him valuable in gold and jade", and then helped him with money and gifts.
At the time of gathering, the man who held the cow got 6,000 yuan. Although it was not what he wanted, it was better than having someone take it away in vain.
The player who cried the cow bowed to everyone and led the cow away.
When the crowd dispersed, everyone was still discussing today's "acts of filial piety" and "deeds of righteousness".
I think it won't take more than two or three days for the street talk in [Dongxiang] to come up with a beautiful story about "a stranger's filial son recognizes his deceased father and thanks his fellow villagers for their righteous deeds."
Li Yu rode a donkey and walked behind the sick cow and the player. He walked and stopped until dusk fell.
The player left the official road, led the cow, and walked on a small path. He walked until he reached a mass grave, and finally turned around.
Tears and dust intertwined with each other, like a "ghost painting" painted on the face. In front of this mass grave in the wilderness, it looked especially eerie and terrifying.
The player grinned: "Little brother, stop following me."
Eight people jumped out from the wild grass next to them, some with short halberds, some with sharp knives, and some with ground knives, and they rushed towards him.
Li Yu slapped [Green Donkey Paper] on the head, turning it into a piece of fluttering colored paper. When the player saw it, his eyes lit up.
Holding the fallen bronze spear, Li Yu turned around and swiped it away, knocking away the short halberd and cracking open the sharp knife. Then he bullied him and knocked him unconscious with a kick from the knife.
The rest were startled, and the offensive immediately slowed down.
Li Yu put away his copper spear, pointed his halberd out, and caught the flying colored paper.
"Hey, he's still a master." The leading player waved his hand towards the seven people, "Brothers, please stop first."
The seven people stopped, some went to pick up the short halberd-pointed sword, and some went to check the swordsman. The remaining ones did not put away their swords, but still pointed at Li Yu from a distance.
One of them looked familiar, he was clearly the one who said at the market, "I am willing to give all my five baht to help filial sons fulfill their filial piety."
"Why are you following me, little brother?" the leader of the players asked.
Putting the colored paper into his arms, Li Yu said bluntly: "I'm buying a cow."
"Buy a cow?" The player smiled, "This is the reincarnation of my deceased father, how can I sell it to you?"
Li Yu shook his head: "Your deception method is not new, so there is no need to trick me."
There is no such thing as "cow father and man son".
This man put salt on his hands and coaxed the cow's tongue to lick it. Whenever the cow licked the salt, water would flow from its eyes.
"The Monk Recognizes the Cow as His Mother" in "The New Book of Du Lie" and "The Magistrate of Andong Trialed the Case of Killing His Father for Living" in "The Scholars" are all about this kind of scam.
Do not care.
The player was not annoyed and said with a smile: "How much do you want to pay?"
"One gold." Li Yu said.
"That won't work, this is my late father." The player shook his head, "You have to add money."
"How much more?"
"Ten gold, plus the colored paper that can turn into a donkey."
"I still want to ride the paper donkey, but I can't add more."
"Can't add it?" The player looked hard, "Then don't add it!"
Four players who bent down to pick up short halberds and knives suddenly took out thick rope knots from the grass and pulled hard.
A huge "□" shaped lasso, with Li Yu as the center, tightened violently.
The rope was studded with sharp knives, spikes, and pear, which stirred up floating soil, swept over the tops of the grass, and struck directly.
At the same time, seven or eight short halberds, accompanied by the whistling of the wind, were thrown at Li Yu one after another.
Li Yu rolled and dodged most of the short halberd. Then he pressed his body forward and jumped up suddenly, facing the side of the "□" rope.
At the moment when the man and the rope were connected, he raised up with his spear and jumped out of the rope.
The lasso swept past, and Li Yu landed firmly, pressing and lifting the tail of his spear, knocking down several short halberds.
The leader of the players looked ugly. Just as he was about to say something, Li Yu came to kill him with a spear.
"Go together!"
After he finished saying this and called the others to gather, Li Yucai pierced his throat with a spear.
The remaining people were either fierce, timid, begging for mercy, or fainted. Li Yu ignored them all and killed them all with his spear in hand.
After everything was done, Li Yu rummaged through the corpse.
I did it casually, but I didn't expect to gain anything.
