Chapter 4 "Pupil Language"

Fang Dong, a scholar, is well-known in Chang'an City, but he is very frivolous and does not observe etiquette.Whenever I met a woman playing in the suburbs, I followed behind very impolitely. The day before the Ching Ming Festival, he happened to go to the outskirts of the city to play, and saw a small car, hung with scarlet curtains, surrounded by embroidered curtains, and several maidservants rode behind the car.One of the maidservants, riding a pony, was extremely beautiful.Fang Dong leaned forward a little, took a sneak peek, and saw that the curtains of the car were drawn, and there was a fifteen or six-year-old girl sitting in the car. She was very gorgeously dressed, never seen in her life.Fang Dong's eyes were dazzled and his mind was in a daze. He followed the car back and forth, reluctant to leave, and followed for several miles.Suddenly, the girl in the car called the maid to the side of the car and said, "Put down the curtain for me."Where did such an arrogant scholar come from, who came to take a peek frequently.The maid put down the curtain, turned her head and looked at Fang Dong angrily, and said: This is the bride of Qilang in Furong City returning to her natal home, not a country girl who just let the scholar peep at her.After finishing speaking, he picked up a handful of soil from the driveway and walked towards Fang Dongyang.

Fang Dong squinted and couldn't open his eyes. Just as he wiped his eyes with his hands, the girl's carriage had already gone away.He returned home in horror and bewilderment, always feeling uncomfortable in his eyes.Ask someone to open the eyelids to see that a film has grown on the eyeball.After a night, it became more and more serious, and the tears kept streaming down.The white nebula grew gradually, and after a few days, it was as thick as a copper coin.On the right eyeball, a thick, spiral-shaped opacity appeared. Various medicines were used to treat it, but nothing worked.At this time, Fang Dong was extremely remorseful, and regretted his inappropriate actions.He heard that the Buddhist "Guangming Sutra" can eliminate disasters, so he took a scroll and asked others to teach it to recite.At first, I felt irritable while reading, but after a long time, I gradually got used to it.One morning and evening, there was nothing else to do, but sitting cross-legged, twisting beads and chanting sutras.He went on like this for a year, and he didn't have any messy thoughts anymore.Suddenly, I heard a voice like a small fly in the left eye, saying: "It's as dark as paint, it's so uncomfortable to die."The voice in the right eye said: "We can go out for a while together, let's get out of this sulking."Fang Dong gradually felt that his nostrils were wriggling and itchy, as if something was crawling out of the nostrils.After a while, it came back again, and entered the eye socket from the nostril again.They also said: I haven't been able to see the pavilions in the garden for a long time, and the pearl orchid is about to die.

Fang Dong liked orchids very much all his life, and he planted many orchids in the garden. He used to irrigate them by himself, but since he lost his eyesight, he didn't ask for them for a long time.Hearing this all of a sudden, he hurriedly asked his wife: Why did the orchid almost dry out?His wife asked Fang Dong how he knew, and Fang Cho told his wife the truth.The wife went to the garden and saw that the orchid had withered.The wife was surprised, and quietly hid in the house to see what happened. She saw a villain coming out of Fang Dong's nose, the size of a bean, wandering around and going outside the door, walking farther and farther, and then saw I don't know.After a while, the two villains came back with their arms crossed and flew to Fang Dong's face, like bees and ants returning to their nests.It went on like this for two or three days.

Fang Dong also heard the villain in his left eye say: This tunnel is winding and inconvenient, it is very inconvenient to come and go, it is better to open another door by yourself.The villain in the right eye said: The wall of the cave here is too thick, it is not easy to open the door.The one on the left said: Let me try it out, if it works, we can live together.Fang Dong then felt a dull pain in his left eye socket, like scratching.After a while, I opened my eyes and saw the tables and chairs in the room clearly.Fang Dong happily told his wife.My wife inspected it carefully, and found a small hole in the small fatty membrane in the left eye, revealing a shiny black eyeball, only half the size of a peppercorn.After one night, the nebula completely faded away.Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be two pupils.And the thick nebula of the right eye is still the same, only then did I realize that the two pupils lived together in one eye socket.Although Fang Dong was blind in one eye, he could see things more clearly than when he had two eyes.Since then, he has been more disciplined and restrained in his behavior, and the villagers all praised him for his good moral character.

Yi Shi's comment: There is a scholar in my village who was walking on the road with two friends. He saw a young daughter-in-law riding a donkey in front of her from a distance, and said loudly in a teasing tone: "There is a beauty!"Then say to the two friends: "Catch up!"The three of them laughed and ran forward.After a while, he caught up, and the scholar saw that it was his daughter-in-law. He felt ashamed and frustrated in his heart, and silently stopped talking.The two friends pretended not to know, and began to comment on the work with frivolous words.The scholar was shy and uneasy, and stammered: This is my eldest daughter-in-law.The two friends each held back their laughter and stopped talking.It seems ridiculous that frivolous people often end up asking for insults.As for Fang Dong's squinting and blindness, this is the painful retribution given to him by ghosts and gods.I don't know where the owner of Furong City is sacred. Could it be the appearance of a Bodhisattva?However, the villain in the eye insisted on opening a door in the left eye!This shows that although ghosts and gods are strict, why don't they allow people to repent and reform themselves!

【original】 Fangdong, a scholar in Chang'an, was quite famous for his talent, but he did not hold ceremonies.Every time you see a wandering girl on the street, you will always suffix it with frivolous suffixes.On the day before Qingming, I even walked in the suburbs.Seeing a small car, Zhu Fu [In ancient times, women rode in a car without showing themselves to the world, and set up barriers in front and back of the car to hide themselves. 】Embroidered, several generations of Tsing Yi have followed.A servant girl rides on a small Si, with a beautiful face.A little closer, I saw that the curtain of the car was opened, and there were twenty-eight girls sitting inside, with gorgeous red makeup, which I had never seen in my life.Dazzling, looking forward to Fushe, or first or later, from galloping for several miles.Suddenly I heard the girl calling the maidservant to come to the side of the car, saying: "Hang down the curtain for me."Where is the wind and madness, come to peep frequently!The servant girl lowered the curtain, and Gu Sheng said angrily: "The bride of Qilangzi in Furong City, Gui Ning, is not the same as the wife of the farmhouse. She is ignored by the educated scholars!"Having said that, I will raise my life by skimming the soil.

Sheng can't open his eyes.Just a glance, but the chariots and horses are gone.Returning in amazement, I feel that my eyes are finally unhappy. Qianren opens his eyelids and looks away, and there is a small cloud on the eye. After Su Yiju, the tears will not stop; the cloud gradually grows, and it is as thick as money in a few days;Hundreds of medicines are ineffective, and I am so depressed that I really want to repent.Hearing that the "Guangming Jing" can solve the problem, I hold a scroll [ㄇㄟ'; sincerely entrust. 】 People teach and recite.At the beginning, I was irritable, but after a long time, I gradually calmed down.In the evening, there is nothing to do, but sit and twist beads.Hold it for a year, and everything will be clean.

Suddenly, I heard small words in my left eye like flies, saying: "Like black paint, it is evil to kill people!"The answer in the right eye said: "You can swim with Xiao Ao, and get out of this sulking."Gradually, he felt that his nose was wriggling and itching, as if something had come out and left the hole.After a long time, it will return, and it will enter the orbit from the nose.He also said: If you don't look at the garden pavilion for a long time, the pearl orchid will wither and die!I like pandan orchids as a raw material, and I plant many kinds of them in the garden, irrigate them on a daily basis, self-blind, and leave them alone for a long time.Hearing this, he suddenly asked his wife Lanhua why she withered to death?His wife questioned what he knew.Because of the notice.The wife tends to test it, and the flowers and fruits are withered, which is very different.Hiding quietly in the room to wait for it, I saw a villain coming out of his nose, which was not as big as a bean, and went out unexpectedly.As you get further away, you become lost.Going back with arms attached, he flew above, like a bee and ant throwing their nests.So two or three days.I also heard Zuo Yan saying: "The tunnel is circuitous, and it is not convenient to go back. It is better to open the door yourself."You Ying said: "My wall is thick, so it's not easy."Zuo said: I tried to open it up, and I got it all.Then I felt that there was a crack in the left orbit.Open your eyes for a while, and see a few things.If you tell your wife when you are happy, if the wife examines it, the lipid membrane will be broken and the small openings will be broken, and the black eyes will be shining, just like splitting peppers.After a night, the curtain disappears completely; if you look closely, you will see double pupils.But the right eye spiral remains the same.It is known that people with two pupils live together in one orbit.Although life is one-eyed, it is different from binoculars.Since it is beneficial to self-examination, it is called Shengdeyan in the village.

Yi Shi said: "There is a scholar in the village. He and his two friends were on the way together. They saw a young woman leading a donkey out of the front. They played and chanted: "There is a beauty!Gu Eryou said: Drive it away!Xianghe laughed, and Russia caught up with her, who was his son-in-law, embarrassed and frustrated, and kept silent.Friends are hypocritical people who don't know, and comment on the stallion.Scholars were shy and said, "This is a long man and a woman."Everyone just smiles.Those who are frivolous often insult themselves, which is ridiculous.As for squinting and blindness, it is the tragic retribution of ghosts and gods.The owner of Hibiscus City doesn't know what kind of god is there. Did a Bodhisattva appear?However, Mr. Xiaolang was born to open up a door. Although ghosts and gods are evil, why don't they allow people to renew themselves!
