Chapter 26 Jiaona

Kong Xueli, a descendant of Kong Sage, is generous and elegant, proficient in poetry. At that time, a friend was an official in Tiantai County and wrote a letter to call Kong Sheng to go to a gathering. Kong Sheng happily set out. After arriving, his friend unfortunately passed away. He was in a foreign country and was not familiar with the place. Kong Sheng was poor and had no money to return home. I had no choice but to live in Bodhisattva Temple to make a living by transcribing scriptures.

A hundred steps to the west of the temple, there is a house, which is Mr. Shan's mansion. Mr. Shan was originally a son of the family. Because he was involved in a lawsuit, his family was ruined. He had no choice but to move to the countryside to live in. As a result, the house was idle and the decline was left unattended.

On this day, it snowed heavily, and there were no pedestrians on the road. Kong Sheng occasionally passed by the door of Shan's house and saw a teenager going out. Fengdu was elegant and polite. The two met and greeted each other. The teenager invited Kong Sheng to enter the house for a chat, and Kong Sheng agreed with emotion.

When I came to the house, the place I passed was not wide. There were brocade and walls hanging everywhere. When I came to a hall, there were many ancient calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall. There was a book on the desk, called "The Trivial Records of Lang". I read it slightly, and the records were all strange things that I had never heard of.

The two exchanged a greeting, and Kong Sheng was preconceived. Of course, he thought that the teenager was the owner of the house, and he did not inquire about the origin of the teenager's family. The teenager asked the east and the west and explained all the information about Kong Sheng in detail. Hearing that Kong Sheng was wandering and wandering outside, he was very sympathetic and advised, "My brother is very talented. Why don't you set up an account to accept apprentices and teach?"

Kong Sheng said, "I'm drifting out, and no one recommends it."

The teenager said, "If you don't mind the qualification of Yulu, I would like to worship you as a teacher."

Kong Sheng was overjoyed and said hurriedly, "Master, I dare not be a friend." Ask the teenager, "Why is the mansion always locked and the door is closed?"

The teenager said, "This is a single house, and it has been uninhabited for a long time. My surname is Huangfu, and I live in Shaanxi. Because my house was burned by wildfire, I had nowhere to settle down. I took advantage of this courtyard for the time being. Kong Sheng suddenly realized that the two of them talked and laughed happily that night, and the young man kept Kong Sheng to sleep in the same bed.

In the early morning of the second day, Kong Sheng got up. At that time, the weather was cold. The teenager had already arranged for the boy to set up a charcoal fire indoors.

In a while, the book boy came in and reported, "The master is here." Kong Sheng greeted him in a hurry. He saw an old man walk into the house, his temples were white, and he thanked him attentively. "Mr. doesn't dislike the stubbornness of children, and he teaches knowledge carefully. I am very grateful. However, when children learn graffiti for the first time, the etiquette of teachers and students should not be neglected. I hope that they will not be equal in the future. After saying that, he ordered his servants to send coats, hats, shoes and socks to Kong Sheng. On the one hand, he set up a banquet and invited Kong Sheng to drink together. The tables, chairs, cups and saucers were all luxurious and dazzling. Many items could not even be called by Kong Sheng.

After dinner, the old man left, and the teenager handed over the article and homework. The content was all ancient poems and words, and there was no way to talk about current art, and the format was not a popular eight-part article in society. Kong Sheng was puzzled and hurriedly asked the reason. The teenager smiled and said, "I'm studying literature, but in order to cultivate himself, I don't intend to participate in the imperial examination and seek fame."

At dusk, the teenager invited Kong Sheng to drink and said, "You can get drunk today, and you can't drink again tomorrow." He also said to the book boy, "Go out and see if the master has a good night's sleep?" If you go to bed, you can call Xiangnu to accompany the guests.

The book boy took the order. After a while, he took a pipa and entered the house. After a while, a woman came, with red makeup and beautiful.

The teenager said to the woman, "Prank a song to listen." The girl nodded and agreed, plucking the strings with ivory, and her voice was excited and sad. What she played was a song "Xiang Concubine Grievance", which was unique and unheard of.

After playing the song, the maid silently served with wine, and drank until the third update before withdrawing the banquet.

The next day, I got up early to read. The young man was smart and never forgot it. After two or three months, he could write poems and lyrics. The writing style was not bad, and Kong Sheng repeatedly praised it. The two agreed to drink wine every five days, and anyone who drank would be accompanied by a slave.

This night's wine was so hot that Kong Sheng stared at Xiangnu and couldn't take his eyes off it. The teenager smiled and said, "Xiangnu has been adopted by his father since he was a child. Pu Liu's posture is not a beautiful woman. Brother Kong is single. I plan day and night to find a good spouse for you.

Kong Sheng said, "If you really have a partner, you must find someone like Xiangnu."

The teenager laughed and said, "Brother Kong is really rare and strange. There are countless beauties in the world. What is Xiangnu? There are more beautiful women than her.

Half a year later, Kong Sheng and the teenager made an appointment to travel. When he walked to the door, he saw that the door was closed and asked, "What door is closed in broad daylight?"

The teenager said, "My father was worried about traveling too much and distracting his energy, so he closed the door to thank the guests." Kong Sheng heard the explanation, nodded, and did not doubt it.

This summer, the weather was hot, the hole was occasionally infected with a disease, and the chest was swollen with honey. A peach-sized pus, after a night, the pus grew wildly, already the size of a bowl mouth, groaning in pain, very uncomfortable. Teenagers take care of them day and night, and their sleep and food are useless. Comforting Kong Sheng, "Don't worry, sir. I have a little sister named Jiaona, who is good at curing all diseases. I have sent someone to invite her to come. When my sister comes, I will take care of her until she gets sick.

While talking, Tong'er came to report, "Miss Jiaona is here, Aunt is here, Miss Song is here."

I only heard the sound of footsteps outside the door, and three women came in, and a girl in the middle, thirteen or fourteen years old, delicate and wise, thin willow posture, it was Jiao Na. On the left is a 30-year-old woman, mature and charming, who is a young aunt; on the right, a woman who is seventeen or seventeen or eight years old, is beautiful, but she is Miss Song.

The teenager led his sister Jiao Na to the bedside. As soon as Kong Sheng saw the girl's face, he was fascinated and even forgot the moan. The teenager told his sister, "This brother Kong is my teacher. He is like flesh and blood. You should treat him well. Don't neglect him."

Jiao Na nodded shyly, gently relaxed her long sleeves, stretched out her delicate jade hand to take Kong Sheng's pulse, and touched her palms. Kong Sheng only felt that the girl's breath was like orchid, and he couldn't help but be stunned.

Jiao Na smiled and said, "Brother, your friend's heart beats quickly and is very sick. But don't worry, although the condition is serious, there is still salvation. But his skin is condensed. If you want to treat it, you have to cut the skin and cut the meat. As he spoke, he took off the gold bracelet of his arm and slowly wrapped around the Confucius. The tip of the pus protruded inch, higher than the bracelet, and the rest was tightly bound by the gold bracelet.

Jiaona fixed the gold bracelet with her left hand, took out a paper-thin knife in her right hand, and gently cut it at the root of the pus. Just one time, the purple blood overflowed and stained the bed mat. Kong Sheng looked at the girl, coveted beauty, cut her skin with a knife, and didn't feel any pain at all.

Soon, the carrion was removed. Jiao Na ordered the servant to bring water, carefully cleaned the wound for Kong Sheng, and spit out a red pill from her mouth. It was the size of a glass bullet, and slowly rotated close to the wound. It only rotated once. Kong Sheng's arm's skin was like hot steaming, and then turned around. The wound was itchy. After the third circle was turned, and the whole body was cool. It enters the bone marrow.

Jona put away the red pills and said, "I'm cured." Turn around and go out. Kong Sheng jumped up from **. He only felt that he was light and healthy, and his spirit was better than before. He wanted to say thank you to Jiao Na, but the girl's trace was insignificant. Where did she look for it?

Since then, Kong missed Jiao Na on his birthday. He didn't think about tea and food. The teenager looked at it and said with a smile, "Brother, you don't have to miss one. My brother has already got a good match for you."

Kong Sheng asked, "Which girl is it?"

The teenager said, "Speaking of which, you have seen this girl. She is my relative."

Kong Sheng thought for a long time and sighed, "No need. Once upon a time, the sea was difficult for water, but Wushan was not a cloud.

The teenager laughed and said, "My father admires my brother's talent and is hearty to marry you. But I only have one younger sister, who is too young. My aunt has a beloved daughter, named A Song, who is 18 years old and has a unique appearance. If you don't believe it, Cousin Song is enjoying flowers in the garden pavilion now. You can go and find out.

Kong Sheng muttered, "I remember that the last time I saw a doctor for me, a total of three women came. This cousin Song must be Miss Song."

The teenager said, "That's right, it's her."

Kong Sheng frowned and smiled: "Okay, I'm going to see Cousin Song." When I walked to the garden pavilion, I really saw A Song and Jiao Na talking and laughing together, staring carefully. Miss Song's Emei was beautiful, and her appearance was not under Jiao Na, and she was at a young age. Compared with Jiao Na, who was still developing, she had a little more mature charm.

Kong Sheng was overjoyed and was busy with the teenager. The teenager agreed and came to reply the next day, "It's done, and we will get married tonight."

It was night, the drums and music were played together. Kong Sheng married Miss Song and went through the door. His wife floated out of the dust, like Chang'e in the moon. She couldn't help but be numb. The clouds and rain in the bridal chamber were even more harmonious and wonderful.

On this day, the teenager said to Kong Sheng, "Brother Meng teaches knowledge, this kindness and virtue, and there is no day to forget. Recently, I heard that Mr. Shan returned from the countryside and should return the house to the original owner. In the future, you and I will go our separate ways. I don't know when we will see each other again.

Kong Sheng asked, "Where does the virtuous brother want to go?"

The teenager said, "All the way to the west, where to go."

Kong Sheng said, "I'll go with you."

The teenager laughed and said, "My brother is a man with a family and a wife. How can he wander around with my younger brother? Moreover, there is still an old mother in my brother's family that needs to be taken care of. Don't act righteously.

Kong Sheng thought that the teenager was reasonable, so he stopped talking.

After a while, Mr. Huangfu led Miss Song to come. The young man held Kong Sheng's right hand and held Miss Song with the other hand and said, "Brother, my cousin will leave it to you. Treat her well."

Mr. Huangfu didn't like to talk too much. He took out a hundred taels of gold and gave it to Kong Sheng and said, "Go ahead."

The teenager said, "I'll send the eldest brother." Looking at Kong Sheng, he told him, "Please close your eyes and don't move. I'll send the eldest brother and his wife home."

Kong Sheng closed his eyes and felt that his body rose and floated into the air. The wind sounded in his ears. After half a cup of tea, his feet were down-to-earth, and his ears heard a young voice: "It's here."

Kong Sheng opened his eyes and returned to his hometown. Only then did he understand that the young man's family were all equipped with strange skills and were by no means ordinary mortals.

Kong Sheng pushed the door and entered the house. His mother was overjoyed. She saw that her daughter-in-law was very beautiful, and she was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth. Kong Sheng looked back and watched, and the teenager had already gone.

Miss Song lives and settles down with her husband. She is virtuous and filial. She is well-known and praised by everyone.

Later, Kong Sheng took the entrance examination to Yan'an to be an official and took office with his wife. Soon, Miss Song gave birth to a boy and named him a little eunuch.

Later, Kong Sheng offended the imperial history platform and was dismissed at home because of his righteous words. On this day, when I went out to hunt in the suburbs, I met a beautiful young man with a familiar face. If you look carefully, it turned out to be Mr. Huangfu.

When old friends meet, they can't help but be happy. The teenager invited Kong Sheng to his home to talk about it. He went to a village with trees and thick shaded the sun. Pushing open the house, it is magnificent, like a rich aristocrat. Kong Sheng asked about Jiao Na's recent situation. The teenager said, "The girl has been married."

Kong Sheng was sad. He stayed for a night and left. The next day, she came to visit again with her wife and children. Jiaona had received a message and came to greet her. When cousins meet, it's inevitable to make a fuss. Jiao Na picked up Miss Song's son, the eunuch, teased her gently, and said with a smile, "Sister is messing me up." It messed up the family's blood relationship.)

Kong Sheng came forward to thank him for his treatment. Jiao Na smiled and said, "I haven't seen you for a few years. My brother-in-law is very noble. The wound heals. Didn't you forget the pain? While talking, Jiaona's husband Wu Lang also came out to see her.

After staying all night, Kong Sheng said goodbye and went home.

On this day, the teenager was full of sadness and said to Kong Sheng, "There is a disaster from the sky. Please help me."

Kong Sheng changed his color and said, "What's going on?"

The teenager didn't say a word and went out. Soon after, he took his sister Jiaona and other families into the hall and fell on his knees. Kong Sheng was terrmented and asked why.

The teenager said, "This is the point. You can't hide it anymore. I'm not a human, but a fox demon. There is a thunderstorm today. If the eldest brother is willing to go to the disaster, his life will be saved. Otherwise, please hug your son and leave to avoid being involved.

Kong Sheng sighed, "Who do you think I am? Needless to say, I vow to live and die with my virtuous brother. How can you ask me to help you?"

The teenager took out a sabre and said, "Please hold this sword and stand in the courtyard. Don't move it at the thunder."

Kong Sheng nodded and stood upright with his sword when he went out. When he saw the black clouds rolling in the sky, he looked back at the mansion where he lived. There were no bricks and tiles left, only a fox cave. The hole was huge and bottomless. In a consternation, there was a huge earthquake, the ground shook, the heavy rain and strong wind blew, and the old tree was uprooted and broken.

Kong Sheng was dizzy and deaf, but he was not afraid. He stood upright and did not move. Suddenly, a ferocious fairy appeared in the dark clouds and thick fog, with sharp mouths and sharp claws, reached into the hole, grabbed a woman and laughed.

Kong Sheng saw that the woman was very familiar with her figure. He stared at it. It was Jiao Na. She jumped up in a hurry. She waved the sword in her hand and stabbed the key point of the ghost fairy. The ghost fairy was in pain and had no choice but to let go of Jiaona and hate her.

At this moment, the thunder roared in the sky, and a flash of lightning fell quickly. It hit Kong Sheng and immediately killed him.

The rain stopped and dispersed, and the weather cleared up. Jiao Na woke up leisurely. Seeing Kong Sheng's death, she cried, "Kong Lang died for me. I can't live alone."

At this time, Miss Song, the teenager and others all climbed out of the cave. Jiao Na asked her cousin to hold her husband's head in her hand, open Kongsheng's teeth with a golden hairpin, pinch his cheeks with her hands, send a red pill into Kongsheng's mouth with her tongue, and breathe from mouth to mouth.

After blowing a few breaths, the red pill fell into the belly and rattled. After a while, Kong Sheng moaned and opened his eyes, as if he woke up from a dream.

For the rest of your life, a family will be reunited. Kong Sheng thought that the cave was not suitable for living in the depth of the cave, so he asked everyone to go home with him. Everyone praised it in unison and said it was a good idea. Only Jiao Na is unhappy.

Kong Sheng invited Jiao Na to go to his hometown with her husband Wu Lang, but he was worried that Wu Lang's parents would not be willing to let him go. During the debate, a servant of the Wu family came to report, "The big thing is not good, and there is a thunderstorm from the sky. Mr. Wu, a family of old and young, are all killed." Jiao Na's face changed greatly when she heard the words. She was suddenly sad and cried. Everyone persuaded her for a long time before she gradually calmed down.

When her husband died, Jiao Na was lonely and helpless, so she had to go to Kong Sheng's hometown with her brother. From then on, Kong Sheng and his wife lived in seclusion with Jiaona's brother and sister in their hometown, drinking and playing chess in their spare time, and living a comfortable life.

After a few years, the eunuch grew into a teenager, with a handsome appearance, but there was a fox demon hidden in his body. He wandered on the street. Everyone knew that he was a descendant of the fox demon.
