Chapter 143 Tian Qilang

Wu Chengxiu, from Liaoyang. I like to travel, and my friends are all celebrities.

Ye Meng came alone and said, "The prince travels all over the world, and they are all harmful to their friends. Only one person can share difficulties, but he doesn't know it. Why? Wu Chengxiu asked, "Who is it?" He replied, "Tian Qilang." Oer woke up from a dream and was secretly surprised.

The next morning, I asked my friend: "Who is Tian Qilang?"

There is a humane: "East Village Hunter."

Wu Chengxiu asked for the path, visited the door, and knocked on the door with a horse whip.

Not many days, one person comes out, more than 20 years old, tiger-eyed bee waist, wearing a dirty hat, wearing red clothes, wearing small nose shorts, full of patches.

The man saluted and asked, "Where did the prince come from?" Wu Chengxiu reported his name and said, "I'm sick on the journey. Can I borrow a room and take a break?" The man nodded. Wu Chengxiu said, "By the way, who is Tian Qilang?" The man said, "I am. Come in."

There are several broken houses in the courtyard, entering a small room, the skin of tigers and wolves, hanging on the wall, and there are no tables and chairs on the floor. Qilang spread his skin on the ground and invited guests to take a seat. Wu Chengxiu talked to him. Seeing that the owner's words were simple, he was very happy and gave him gold. He said, "A little heart, please accept it and subsidize the family."

Qilang is not accepted. Wu Chengxiu insisted again and again. Qilang entered with gold and told his mother to ask her to make a final. The old lady said, "I just witnessed the prince. His face is bad luck, and he will suffer a strange disaster. It is difficult to be appreciated by others, and it is difficult to be favored by others. The rich repay with wealth, and the poor with righteousness. It's ominous to get a lot of money for no reason. If you receive it, you must repay it with death. It's better not to accept it.

Oer, the old lady came out and said harshly, "I don't want to serve the distinguished guests. Please come back." When Wu Chengxiu heard the words, he was ashamed and retreated.

The next day, Wu Chengxiu held a banquet to invite Qilang, but Qilang refused.

Wu Chengxiu came to the door in person, and Qilang entertained him with good wine and venison. The courtesy was thoughtful. The next day, Wu Chengxiu invited Qilang again. Give gold as a gift, but don't accept it. Wu Chengxiu excused to buy tiger skin and said, "This is the deposit." Qilang is willing to accept it. After going back, I count the tiger skin. The skin is less and more money. I thought, "If the animal skin is not enough, I must go to the mountain to hunt for it."

I entered the mountain for three days and got nothing. I caught up with my wife's illness, guarded the medicine, and had no time to hunt. More than ten days later, his wife died of illness, Qilang took care of the funeral, and the deposit was gradually spent. Wu Chengxiu came to express his condolences in person, and the etiquette was rich. After his wife entered the earth, Qilang was single-minded to return the favor, re-entered his old business, took the bow into the forest, and still returned empty-handed.

Wu Chengxiu advised: "Don't worry about the tiger skin. Take your time. If you are free, you can talk about it in your humble house. Qilang regretted the debt and refused to agree. Wu Chengxiu asked, "How many tiger skins are there in the virtuous brother's family?" Qilang checked the inventory, the leather was bitten by insects, and the tiger hair fell off. He was annoyed. Wu Chengxiu comforted: "It's better to have no hair. I used to like nothing. Woolen leather. Roll up the tiger's skin, lift it in the palm of your hand, and leave by yourself.

Qilang thought to himself, "The secondary price is high, and you can take advantage of all the advantages. What's the matter?" He was so sorry that he wrapped the grain into the mountain. After several nights, he captured a fierce tiger and gave it to Wu.

Wu Chengxiu was overjoyed, prepared the dishes, asked him to stay overnight, and said, "Let's stay for three days, and then let you go home." Qilang insisted on saying goodbye and had a resolute attitude. Wu Chengxiu was in a hurry and locked the doors and windows. Qilang was not allowed to go out and had no choice but to stay.

During the banquet, the guests saw Qilang dressed in simple clothes and whispered, and said, "Mr. Wu made friends carelessly." Wu Chengxiu didn't care. He treated Qilang well and changed his new clothes. Qilang refused to accept it.

When he fell asleep at night, Wu Chengxiu secretly replaced him and had no choice but to accept it. A few days later, Qilang left, and his son was ordered by his grandmother to return his new clothes and asked for his father's old robe by the way. Wu Chengxiu smiled and said, "Go back and tell the old lady that the old robe has been removed as a shoe lining." Since then, Qilang has often hunted rabbits and hunted deer and gave them to Wu. If he is invited to the banquet, he will refuse.

One day, Wu Chengxiu visited Qilang. It was worth hunting and didn't return. The old lady leaned against the door and said, "Don't attract my son again. It's not good intentions." When Wu Chengxiu heard the words, he was ashamed and retreated.

Half a year later, his family suddenly reported: "Qi Lang fought for the cheetah, beat him to death, and was caught by the government." Wu Chengxiu was shocked and galloped to visit him. Qilang had been put in prison. The two met and were silent for a long time. Qilang said, "Please take care of my mother for me in the future." Wu Chengxiu came out miserably. He urgently bribed the county magistrate with a lot of money and bribed the plaintiff with a hundred gold. Only then did he calm down the matter. After more than a month, Qilang was acquitted.

The old lady sighed and said, "Your hair and skin are not cherished by the old man. I just hope that the prince will be a hundred years old without disaster, which is my son's blessing. Qilang wanted to come to thank him. The old lady said, "If you go, you will go, but there is no need to thank you. Thank you for your kindness. Thank you for your kindness. When Qilang saw Wu, Wu Chengxiu said gentle comfort. Qilang only responded, and his family blamed him for being rude. Wu Chengxiu loved him with a sincere temperament and became more and more polite.

Since then, Qilang has often stayed in Wufu. If there is a gift, he will accept it calmly, no longer refuse, and will not say thank you. On the birthday of Wu Chengxiu, there were many guests, and there was no empty room in the house. Wu Chengxiu and Qilang lived in the fighting room. Three servants laid under the grass bed, and five people shared the same room.

At the end of the second update, all the servants fell asleep, and the two were still talking to themselves. Qilang wore a knife hanging between the wall, and suddenly the sharp blade came out of the sheath, and the light flashed like electricity.

Wu was shocked, and Qilang also got up and asked, "Who is lying under the bed?" Wu Chengxiu said, "They are all slaves in the house." Qilang said, "There must be evil people in this." Wu Chengxiu said, "How can I make a decision?" Qilang said, "This knife was bought from a foreign country, killing people without blood. So far, there have been three times, thousands of beheads, and they are unparalleled sharp. If you see a wicked person, the knife will tremble and want to drink blood. The prince should be a gentleman, a distant villain, who may be able to avoid disaster. Wu Chengxiu nodded and agreed.

Qi Lang was unhappy and toss the bed. Wu Chengxiu said, "Blessings and misfortunes are doomed. Why bother yourself?" Qilang said, "I'm not afraid of myself, but my mother is in the hall, and I can't rest assured."

Wu Cheng said, "Why is it so?" Qilang said, "I hope everything is fine."

It turned out that there were three people under the bed, one was Lin Er, who had been following his master for a long time and was quite favored; the other was a child servant, often sent by Wu; one surnamed Li, was stubborn, and every time he quarreled with his master about small things, he was the least favored. Wu Chengxiu secretly suspected that the villain must be Li. The next day, at dawn, good words sent him away and ordered him to leave.

Wu Chengxiu's eldest son was named Wu Shen and married Wang. One day, Wu Chengxiu went out and left Lin'er to look after the house. When Zhaizhong** was in full bloom, Wang thought to himself, "My father-in-law is not at home, and there is no one in the courtyard. It's better to pick flowers." When she came to the study alone, Lin Er suddenly jumped out and flirted. Wang turned around and wanted to leave. Lin Erqiang was caught in the room and was about to be rude. Wang shouted, and the gentry came to rescue her, and Lin'er escaped in a hurry. When Wu Chengxiu came home, he was furious when he heard about it. He looked around for Lin Er and disappeared. Two or three days later, Wu first heard the news that Lin Er had devoted himself to the imperial palace.

Yushi is an official in Beijing, and the housework is entrusted to his younger brother. Wu Chengxiu, as a fellow villager, wrote a letter to ask for Lin Er, but his younger brother ignored it. Wu Chengxiu became more and more angry. A complaint was filed to the government. Although the official document of arrest had been issued, the government officials refused to execute it, and the county magistrate did not care.

Wu Cheng corrected himself in anger, and Qilang suddenly came. Wu Chengxiu sighed, "The words of the virtuous brother have been fulfilled now." When Qilang heard the story, he changed his color and went without saying a word.

Wu Chengxiu secretly ordered the servant to search for Lin'er. Lin'er returned at night, captured the servant, and grabbed him to meet Wu. Wu Chengxiu tortured him with torture. Lin Er was arrogant and abused in all kinds of words. Wu Heng, Wu's uncle, persuaded him, "It's better to send the first evil to the government and deal with it according to law, so as not to cause trouble."

Wu Chengxiu nodded and agreed, and took Lin'er to the court. The imperial history had already sent a letter and ordered the county magistrate to show mercy. Therefore, Lin Er was acquitted and became more and more proud. She shouted loudly in the crowd and falsely accused Wang of having an affair with herself. Wu Chengxiu had no choice but to die of resentment. In anger, he ran to the imperial gate and bowed down and shouted. The neighbor talked or bad, so he persuaded him away.

After one night, the family suddenly came to report: "Lin'er was cut into pieces and abandoned in the wilderness." Wu Chengxiu was surprised, but he was not happy for long. His uncle and nephew were sued by the brother of the imperial history and taken to the government for trial.

The county magistrate could not argue. If he wanted to impose a punishment, Wu Chengxiu shouted, "There is no need to kill people!" As for insulting the official gentry, it's all done by me, and it has nothing to do with my uncle. The county magistrate turned a deaf ear. Wu Chengxiu's eyes were about to crack, and he wanted to come forward to argue. The government officials rushed up and pressed him to the ground. The county magistrate waved his wrist and said, "Use punishment." The officials were in a mess. Wu Heng was old and weak, with only seven or eight sticks, and he died.

When the county magistrate saw that the person was killed, he was no longer investigated and ordered to leave the court. Wu Chengxiu cried and scolded. The county magistrate turned a deaf ear and left. Wu Chengxiu carried his uncle's body back, angry and there was nothing he could do. He wanted to find Qilang to plan, but Qilang had no trace, let alone came to mourn. I thought to myself, "I treat Qilang well. How can I be like a stranger? Is it him who killed Lin'er? If so, why don't you discuss it with me?" So he sent people to inquire. When he came to Qilang's house, the door was closed and the family did not know where to go.

One day, the younger brother of the imperial historian was in the county government, talking and laughing with the county magistrate. A woodcutter broke in, holding a firewood knife in his hand, and fighting. The younger brother of the imperial history raised his hand to block the grid, and the knife broke his wrist. With another knife, the xiao died.

The county magistrate was shocked and fled in all sides, calling for help. The woodcutter Zhang Huang looked around, and the government officials heard the news, danced guns and sticks, and surrounded them one after another. The woodcutter knew that he was outnumbered and killed himself. Everyone came forward to identify him. It turned out that he was Tian Qilang. The county magistrate was shocked and came out for an autopsy. He saw Qilang lying in a pool of blood, still holding the firewood knife in his hand. The county magistrate squatted down and looked at it. The body suddenly jumped up, cut off his head with a knife, and then fell to the ground.

The government ordered the arrest of Qilang's mother and son, and the two grandchildren had already fled. When Wu Chengxiu heard that Qilang was dead, he cried bitterly. The enemies said that he instructed Qilang to commit murder. Wu Chengxiu changed the seller's property, dredged left and right, and was finally spared.

Qilang abandoned his body in the field. For more than 30 days, birds and beasts were around the side to guard the body. Wu Chengxiu took the corpse and buried it. Qilang's son was exiled to Dengzhou and changed his surname to Tong. He devoted himself to the army, accumulated military achievements, and was promoted to General Tongzhi. When he returned to Liaoyang, Wu Chengxiu was 80 years old and instructed Qilang to go to the tomb together.
