Liaozhai Ghost Story

Chapter 142 Luoshahai City 2

Not many times, Ma Ji and the villagers loaded the goods on the ship and went to sea for trade. The boat has dozens of people, with a high hurdle, ten people rocking, and the water is like an arrow. After three days, I saw the clouds and water rippling in the distance, the pavilions were stacked, and the sailboats gathered under the city, as many as ants. When he arrived at the city, Ma Ji looked carefully. The green bricks on the wall were huge, and each piece was seven feet long. The city tower is high into the sky, the abandoned boat goes ashore, the goods are displayed in the market, rare treasures, dazzling, rare in the world.

A young man came on a steed, and all the people in the city avoided it. The villagers said, "This is the third son of Dongyang." The son shuttled through the streets, looked at Ma Ji, and said, "This man is extraordinary in appearance, and he is by no means a foreign barbarian." Before he finished his words, a servant came forward to ask about his origin. Ma Ji said one by one, and the son of the world said happily, "The prince is here, and the fate is not shallow." So he gave the mount and asked him to go with him. The two galloped side by side, out of the west gate to the shore of the island. The mount jumped into the water, and the horse was stunned. Suddenly, they saw the middle of the sea, and the left and right waves stood still, like a wall. From Orr to a palace, the tortoiseur is a beam, the scales are made into tiles, the four walls are crystal clear, and the light can be seen.

He disared and entered the hall and looked up. He saw that Long Jun was high above him. The son of the world said, "I travel to the downtown, get the Chinese sage, and introduce the king." Ma Ji came forward and knelt down. Long Jun said, "Mr. Literature, you are as talented as Qu Yuan and Song Yu. Please write a song 'Haishi Fu', and don't hesitate to teach me. Ma Ji happily took the order, and the Dragon King gave him a crystal inkstone, a dragon's pen, white paper like snow, and ink like orchid. Ma Ji worked hard to write a book, wrote down thousands of words, and dedicated them to the hall. Long Jun hit the festival praised, "Mr. Xiongcai, all the water country is glorified." So they gathered the dragon clan and held a banquet in the Caixia Palace. After several rounds of drinking, Long Jun held the cup and said, "I have a beloved daughter. If I'm single and unmarried, I will give it to my husband as my wife. What do you think?"

Ma Ji left Xie En, and promised to agree. Long Jun looked left and right and whispered a few words. There was nothing. Several maids of honor gathered around a girl and came out, ringing and playing drumming music. After worshipping the world, Ma Ji secretly looked at the girl, as gorgeous as a fairy. A few years after the girl left, and the banquet was over, the two maids picked up the painting lamp and sent the horse into the bridal chamber. The girl waited with heavy makeup, the coral bed, the eight-treasure decoration, the fringe outside the tent, decorated with pearls, as big as a rice bucket, ** beautiful bedding, incense four legends.

The next day, the couple got up early, and the maids and maids competed to serve each other. Ma Ji went up to worship and thank him. Long Jun appointed him as the captain of the emperor's son-in-law. While transmitting "Haishi Fu" all over the world, the four sea dragon kings sent messengers to congratulate each other and took the opportunity to invite the emperor's son-in-law to the banquet. Ma Ji was dressed in brocade, drove a green dragon car, and shouted out. Dozens of entourage warriors, iron horses bent bows, white flags fluttering; playing the piano immediately, playing jade in the car, majestic. In three days, he traveled all over the world, and the name of "Dragon Media" is known all over the world.

There is a jade tree in the palace. One person hugs thickly, and the trunk is like white glazed, crystal clear. A tree heart in the middle, light yellow, with a thin arm. The leaves are as jade, as thick as copper coins, and the shade is fine. Ma Ji often sings poems with girls under the tree. The flowers are all over the tree, and the shape is similar to that of gardenia. Every petal falls and makes a sound. Picking it up and examining it, the petals are bright and lovely, and seem to be carved from agate.

The treetops often have strange birds singing, golden feathers, and a longer tail than the body. The voice is sad and touching. Every time Ma Ji hears the call of birds, he can't help but miss his hometown. Therefore, he said to the girl, "For three years, I have been away from my parents. Every time I think about it, I burst into tears. Will you go back with me?" The dragon girl said, "Xianfan is separated from each other and can't rely on each other. My concubine can't bear to take away the joy of her knees with the love of fish and water. Let me find a way to find a way to return home. When Ma Ji heard this, he couldn't help crying. The dragon girl sighed, "The love between husband and wife, the love between father and son, is difficult to have both."

The next day, Ma Ji returned from outside. Long Jun said, "The lieutenant misses his hometown. How about sending you home tomorrow morning?" Ma Ji thanked him and said, "Weichen wandered away, spoiled by His Majesty, and never dare to forget his kindness. After visiting the family, let's get together again.

At dusk, the dragon girl said goodbye to the wine, and Ma Ji booked the next date. The dragon girl said, "The love is over." Ma Ji was very sad. The dragon girl said, "If you raise your parents, you can see the prince and even the filial piety. Life is scattered, and a hundred years are more than day and night. Why should we follow the attitude of children and mourn and cry? After that, my concubine keeps chastity for the king, and the king keeps righteousness for my concubine. The two places are of one mind, that is, a couple. Why should we stay together sooner or later? If you back on the covenant, the marriage is unuspicious. If no one does housework, you are allowed to take a concubine. At the time of parting, there is one more thing to ask: I married my son, and I seem to be pregnant. Please name it. Ma Ji said, "If you give birth to a daughter, it will be named Dragon Palace. If you give birth to a man, it will be named Fuhai." The dragon girl begged for a token. Ma Ji got a pair of red jade lotus flowers in Rasha and took them out to give them.

The dragon girl said, "On the eighth day of April three years later, you will be boating on the South Island and return your flesh and blood." While talking, he made a bag of fish skin, filled it with jewelry, gave it to his husband, and said, "Take good care of it, and then you don't have to worry about eating and wearing it." The sky is slightly bright, and the Dragon King sets up a tent and gives generous gifts. Ma Ji said goodbye to the palace, and the dragon girl took the Aries cart and sent her to the seaside. Ma Ji got ashore and got off the horse. The dragon girl urged to cherish it and drove back. In an instant, the sea water compounded and disappeared. Ma Ji is back.

When Ma Ji came home, his family was surprised. After many years, his wife had already remarried. Fortunately, his parents were alive and in good health. Only then did I understand the words of the dragon girl's "keeping righteousness", and it was also a prophet. Ma's father wanted to remarry his son, but Ma Ji didn't allow it. Remember that the dragon girl asked him to take his maidservant as his concubine. Three years have passed in a blink of an eye. In Ma Ji's boating island, he saw two people sitting on the surface of the water, playing in the water, motionless and not sinking. Close to the front, he laughed dumbly, grabbed his arm and jumped into his arms. The other child cried loudly, as if he was being scolded: Why are you biased and only hug him, not me? Ma Ji smiled and hurriedly hugged her. Looking at it carefully, a man and a woman, with a graceful appearance and a brocade hat decorated with jade on her forehead, are exactly the pair of red jade lotus flowers.

The child carried a pair of tips on his back and opened it to read. There was a letter in it. The content said: Is your parents-in-law all right? Suddenly, three years later, the red dust is separated forever, full of water, and the blue birds are difficult to pass through. Thinking of you day and night, waiting for your return, the vast sea, increasing hatred. Gu Nian ran to the moon Chang'e and guarded Guifu; threw the weaver girl and lived alone in the Milky Way. Who am I to stay together for a long time? When you think about this, you will burst into tears and laugh. In the next two months, I will have a twin. In your arms, you can distinguish laughter; touch dates and catch pears, and there is no mother to live. I would like to return it to you. The gift of red jade lotus is decorated with a hat. When I hugged my child on my knees, I still had a concubine on the left and right. I heard that you keep the covenant and feel happy. The concubine is the best in this life, until she dies. Treasures in the cabinet, do not hide orchid cream; new makeup in the mirror, long-term goodbye powder. You seem to be looking for people, and my concubine is **. Although the ends of the earth are separated, this situation is unswerving. However, although the parents-in-law held their grandchildren and did not see the bride, it was reasonable and it was also a defect. After the end of the year, my mother-in-law was buried and came to the grave in person to fulfill her filial piety. Since then, if the "Dragon Palace" is sound, there may be a period of meeting; "Fuhai" can still interact with each other. Fu Wei cherishes it and can't say anything. ( Chirping, the sound of birds, this refers to the child's coquettishness.)

Ma Ji read the letter repeatedly and burst into tears. He hugged his neck and said, "Go back." Ma Ji became more and more sad. He stroked the baby and asked, "Where is the child's home?" The two didn't answer, just cried. Ma Ji looked at the sea from afar, looking around in the wilderness, boundless, the fog was hazy, and the road was poor. He fell off the boat and came back in a melancholy.

After returning home, Ma Ji knew that his mother's life was not long, so he bought a coffin to build a grave, and planted a hundred pine trees in front of the tomb. A year later, the old lady really died of illness. On the day of the funeral, the dragon girl came and cried at the acupuncture point. Everyone was surprised, suddenly the wind and thunder roared, and the rain was heavy, and the dragon girl disappeared in an instant. Most of the pine trees in front of the tomb died because they were newly planted. After the heavy rain, they sprouted and all resurrected.

After Fuhai grew up, he missed his biological mother and returned from the sea for a few days. Because the Dragon Palace is a woman, she can't go there. She often closes the door and cries. One day after taking a nap, the dragon girl rushed in and comforted her daughter and said, "Why should the child cry when he grows up and has a family?" Give an eight-foot coral tree, a dragon brain fragrance, a hundred pearls, and a pair of eight-treasure inlaid gold boxes to make a dowry for the woman. When Ma Ji heard the news, he entered the house. The husband and wife met and sobbed. Suddenly, the thunder broke the house, and the dragon girl had already disappeared.
