In Zhaoyuan County, there was a scholar named Zhang Yudan, who had a bohemian temperament and studied in a deserted temple.At that time, the county magistrate of Zhaoyuan County was Lu Gong, who was born in Sanhan.He has a daughter who specializes in hunting.Once, Zhang Sheng met Lu Gongnv in the wild, and saw that she was charming and graceful, wearing a brocade mink fur jacket and riding a pony, just like the person in the painting.Back in the temple, every time I think of the beauty of this woman, I will never forget it.Later, when he heard that the woman had died suddenly, Zhang Sheng was very sad.Because Lu Gong was far away from his hometown, he temporarily deposited his daughter's coffin in the deserted temple where Zhang Sheng studied.

Because Zhang Sheng had a relationship with Lu Gongnv, he respected her very much, just like a god.He burns incense in front of the spirit of Lu Gongnv and daughter every morning, and pays homage when eating.Every time he held up his wine glass, he said to the coffin of Lu Gongnv and said: I just saw you, and I often think of you in my dreams. I didn't expect you, a jade-like person, to die.Although you are close by my side now, you are as far away as thousands of miles away, what a pity.I am bound by etiquette while I am alive, you should have no taboos when you are dead!If you have a spirit under the Nine Springs, you should come to Shanshan to comfort my admiration.

Prayer on Zhang's birthday, nearly half a month.One night, he was reading under the lamp, when he looked up suddenly, he saw Mrs. Lu standing under the lamp with a smile on her face.Zhang Sheng got up in surprise and asked, the woman said: I am grateful for your true love for me, and I can't forget it, so I came to meet you without avoiding the suspicion of elopement.Zhang Sheng was overjoyed, and the two had a good time together.From then on, Mrs. Lu did not miss a single night.She said to Zhang Sheng: "When I was alive, I liked to ride a horse and shoot arrows. I enjoyed shooting roe and killing deer. The crime is very serious. I have nowhere to go after I die."If you really love me, please recite the five thousand and forty-eight volumes of the Diamond Sutra for me, and I will never forget you from life to life.Zhang Sheng respectfully agreed to her entrustment, and from then on he often got up at night to read Buddhist scriptures in front of Lu Gongnv's coffin.Once, when a festival happened by chance, Zhang Sheng wanted to take Mr. Lu and his daughter home together for the festival.The woman worried that her legs and feet were weak and she couldn't walk.Zhang Sheng wanted to carry her on his back, but the woman agreed with a smile.Zhang Sheng is like carrying a child on his back, he doesn't feel heavy at all.Since then, walking with her on her back has become the norm.When Zhang Sheng took the exam, he also carried her on his back, but he had to go at night.

One year, when the provincial examination was held, Mr. Zhang was going to take the examination. The woman said: You are not lucky, and it is futile to go back and forth.After listening to her words, Zhang Sheng didn't take the exam.After another four or five years, Duke Lu resigned from office and was too poor to hire a car to transport his daughter's coffin away. He planned to bury her on the spot, but suffered from lack of a cemetery.After Zhang Sheng knew about this, he said to Lu Gong: I have a thin piece of land next to the temple, and I would like to bury your daughter.Duke Lu was overjoyed.Zhang Sheng tried to help with the funeral.Lu Gong was very grateful to Zhang Sheng, but he didn't know what Zhang Sheng was for.

Duke Lu dismissed him and went home. Zhang Sheng and Mrs. Lu were still as happy as before.One night, the woman was in Zhang Sheng's arms, weeping like rain, and said to Zhang Sheng: We have known each other for five years, and now we are going to part!I have received your kindness, and several lifetimes are not enough to repay it.Zhang Sheng asked her in surprise, and she said, "Thank you for your kindness to me, a person under the Nine Springs."Now you have recited all the sutras for me, so I was able to be reborn in Luhubu's house in Hebei.If you don't forget today, on August 16th, fifteen years from now, I invite you to meet at Luhubu's house.Zhang Sheng also cried sadly and said: I am over 30 years old now, and in another 15 years, I will soon enter the coffin, so what if we meet again?The woman said: I would like to serve you as a slave in return.After a while, she said again: You can send me six or seven miles.There are many thorns along the way, and it is difficult for me to walk in a long skirt.After all, holding Zhang Sheng's neck, Zhang Sheng sent her on the road.

When I got to the main road, I saw many chariots and horses by the side of the road. Some rode one person, some rode two people;There is only one carriage decorated with golden flowers and hung with vermilion embroidered curtains, and only an old woman is sitting in it.When the old woman saw Mrs. Lu coming, she called out: Are you here?The woman promised: here we come.The woman turned her head and said to Zhang Sheng: "Just send it here, you go back!"Don't forget what I just said.Zhang Sheng agreed.The woman walked to the car, and the old woman stretched out her hand to pull her into the car. As soon as the bell rang, the car and horse drove away to a distant place.

Zhang Sheng returned to the temple listlessly and wrote down the date of meeting fifteen years later on the wall.Thinking that chanting sutras still has such a great effect, I chanted sutras more sincerely.He had a dream at night, and dreamed that a man of God told him: You have a good ambition, but you need to go to the South China Sea.Ask God: How far is the South China Sea?The man of God said: Far away in the sky, close to an inch in front of you.After waking up, he understood the meaning of the god and man, so he recited the Bodhi Sutra and practiced more sincerely. Three years later, Zhang Sheng's eldest son, Zhang Zheng, and second son, Zhang Ming, went to high school one after another.Although Zhang Sheng suddenly became famous, he still insisted on practicing.Once, he dreamed that a man in Tsing Yi invited him. When he arrived at a palace, he saw a god sitting in the palace, like a Bodhisattva. He greeted him and said, "It's a joy for you to do good deeds, but it's a pity that you can't live long. Fortunately, you asked God for advice, which can prolong your life."Zhang Sheng knelt down and kowtowed. The Bodhisattva asked him to sit down and invited him to drink tea. The tea smelled like orchids.He also asked the boy to lead him to a pool to take a bath.The water in the pool is very clear, and the fish in it can be seen clearly.Entering the pool, the water is very warm, hold it up and smell it, it has the fragrance of lotus leaves.After a while, he gradually reached the depths, slipped his footing and fell into the bottom of the water. The water was as deep as his head, and he woke up suddenly, greatly surprised.Since then, Zhang Sheng's body has become stronger and his eyes have become clearer. He stroked his beard by himself, and the white beard fell off.After a while, the black beard also fell off, and the wrinkles on the face disappeared; after a few months, the face looked like a child, the same as fifteen or sixteen years old.I also like games, like a child, I don't pay much attention to clothing accessories and etiquette.When something went wrong, the two sons went to rescue him.Soon his wife died of old illness, and Zhang Sheng's sons wanted to marry him the daughter of a rich family as his successor.He said: Wait until I go to Hebei and come back.Zhang Sheng calculated that it was time to meet Lu Gongnv, so he ordered his men to prepare horses and lead his servants to Hebei.As soon as I inquired, there was indeed a Luhu Department.

Earlier, Duke Lu gave birth to a daughter who could speak at birth and became smarter and more beautiful when she grew up. Her parents loved her the most.Some rich and noble families came to propose marriage, but their daughters were unwilling.The parents felt strange, so they asked her, and the daughter gave a detailed account of her marriage before her death.Everyone calculated the time for her, laughed and said: Silly girl!Zhang Lang is now over half a hundred years old, and his personnel has changed. I'm afraid his bones will be rotten; even if he is still alive, he will be old.The daughter didn't listen, but waited.Seeing that she was determined not to waver, her mother conspired with Duke Lu to tell the gatekeeper not to inform the guests. After the appointment, she would despair.

Sure enough, Zhang Sheng came to visit in a short time, but the gatekeeper did not inform him.Zhang Sheng had no choice but to go back to the hotel, feeling unhappy and unable to do anything, so he went to the countryside to relax, and also took this opportunity to secretly inquire about the woman. After entrusting the birth, the Duke and daughter of Lu thought that Zhang Sheng had failed the contract, so she cried all day long and refused to eat.The mother said to her: If Zhang was not born, he must have passed away.Even if you live and break the covenant, it's not your fault.The woman did not speak, and lay on the bed all day long.Lu Gong was very worried and wanted to know what kind of person Zhang Sheng was, so he went on an outing with excuses and happened to meet Zhang Sheng.Seeing that he was a young man, they were very surprised, and they exchanged a few words with each other. Seeing that Zhang Sheng was handsome and unrestrained, Duke Lu liked him very much, so he invited him to his home.Just as Zhang Sheng was about to ask a question, Duke Lu suddenly stood up and told the guest to wait a moment, then hurried into the inner room and told his daughter.The daughter was very happy and struggled to get up by herself. When she came out, she saw that she didn't look much like Zhang Sheng, so she went back to the room crying, blaming her father for cheating her.Lu Gong tried his best to show that this person was Zhang Sheng, and his daughter didn't speak, but just cried.When Lu Gong came out, he was depressed and did not give Zhang Sheng a warm welcome.Zhang Sheng asked: Is there any household department in your house?Lu Gong casually replied yes, and looked away, as if he didn't feel that there was a guest.Zhang Sheng felt that he was being treated poorly, so he said goodbye and left.

Mrs. Lu just cried, and died crying in a few days.Zhang Sheng had a dream at night, and saw Lu Nu came to him and said to him: "Is it really you who came to see me?"Your age and appearance have changed, and you didn't recognize me when I met you.Now that I have died of sorrow, I trouble you to go to the Temple of the Land to bring back my soul, and I can be resurrected, if it is too late, it will be too late.Zhang Sheng woke up and hurried to call the door of Luhu Department. Sure enough, his daughter had been dead for two days.Zhang Sheng was distraught, went into the house to mourn, and told Lu Gong what happened in his dream.Lu Gong obeyed his words and hurried to the Earth Temple to retrieve his daughter's soul.He lifted the quilt again, stroked his daughter's body, and prayed while calling his daughter's name.Not long after, I heard my daughter gurgling in her throat, saw her red lips parting, spit out a mouthful of ice-like phlegm, and gradually moaned.Lu Gong was very happy, and invited Zhang Sheng to sit in the living room, ordered someone to put on a banquet, and asked Zhang Sheng's family status carefully, only to know that his family was a wealthy family, and he was even more happy.So she chose a good day and an auspicious day, and ordered her daughter to marry Zhang Sheng.Zhang Sheng lived in Lu Gong's mansion for half a month, and then took his wife home. Lu Gong personally escorted his daughter, and lived in Zhang's mansion for half a year before returning home.

Zhang Sheng and his wife live together, really like a young couple.Many people think that Lu Nu's daughter-in-law is her mother-in-law, because her daughter-in-law is nearly forty.After Lu Gong returned home, he died a year later.The son was very young and was bullied by powerful people, and almost all the family property was taken over by others.Zhang Sheng and his wife took him in and raised him, and they became a family. 【original】 Zhaoyuan Zhang Yudan is wild and unruly.Study Xiaosi.Shi Yi Ling Lu Gong, a native of Sanhan.There are women who are good hunters.When I happened to meet Zhuye, I saw her graceful and graceful, wearing a brocade sable fur, straddling a small Liju, as graceful as a painting.Recalling Ronghua, I really want to.Later, when I heard that the woman died violently, I was deeply mourned.Lu Yi's family is far away, and he lives in Jiling Temple, where he lives and studies.Life and worship are like gods, worship must be fragrant, and food must be sacrificed.Every time I drink, I wish and say: Seeing Qing half-faced, I will always be a dream soul;It's so close at hand, but it's as long as rivers and mountains, so how can I hate it!However, there are constraints in life, and there are no taboos in death. There is a spirit in Jiuquan. When Shanshan comes, comfort me and admire her.I wish it day and night, for a few months. One night, when I lit the lamp to read at night, I suddenly raised my head, and the woman stood under the lamp with a smile on her face.Surprised and asked.The woman said: "I feel the love of the king, and I can't help myself, so I don't avoid the suspicion of elopement."I am overjoyed.So we had a good time together.Since then, there has been no empty night.Said Sheng said: A concubine is good at bow and horse, and shoots roe and kills deer as quickly as possible. The crime is serious, and death has no return.If you love your concubine sincerely, you will recite a collection of "Diamond Sutra" from generation to generation, and you will never forget it from generation to generation.Sheng Jing was taught, and every night he got up, twirled beads in front of the coffin and recited satire.In the sequence of even values, I want to go home with you.Women worry about weak feet and cannot walk on foot.If you are a student, please follow your ambitions, and if you are a girl, follow it with a smile.Such as holding a baby, not heavy tired.So take it for granted.Exams are also included.However, it must be at night.The student will go to Qiuwei, and the woman said: "Your fortune is poor, and you are running in vain."So he listened to his words and stopped.After four or five years, Lu was dismissed from office, and the poor could not meet his coffins.The birth is from Chen: A certain man has thin soil near the temple, and he is willing to bury his daughter and son.Lu Gongxi.Live and work hard for burial.Lu Dezhi, but don't understand why.Lu went, the two of them prepared as usual.

There are many thorns and thorns here, and it is difficult for the concubine to wear long clothes."It is a birth item.Send students to Tongqu, see a group of chariots and horses by the roadside, there may be one person, or two people on the horse; there may be three, four, or dozens of people in the car; there is only one tin car, embroidered with tassels and Zhu Xi [ㄒㄧㄢ'; Car curtain], only one old lady is there.When he saw the girl, he called out, "Come here?"The woman responded, "Come on."But looking back, Shengyun said: "End of this, let's go; don't forget what you said."Sheng Nuo.The woman approached the chariot, and she held it in her hand, stretched out her legs [ㄌㄧㄥ; wheels] and immediately set off, and the chariot and horse swallowed and drove away. I returned home in a state of disappointment, and my ambition is on the wall every day.Because of the effect of thinking about the mantra, reciting it will benefit you.Mengshen said: "You Zhiliangjia."But we need to go to the South China Sea.Question: How far is the South China Sea?Said: It's close to a square inch.Wake up and understand its purpose, read and cut Bodhi, and practice double cleanliness.Three years later, the second son Ming and the eldest son Zheng were promoted to high-tech one after another.Although life is expensive, good deeds never replace it.Yemeng invited the man in Tsing Yi to go, and saw a person sitting in the palace, who looked like a Bodhisattva, and said against him: "My son is good and gratifying."It's a pity that I don't have a good age, but I am lucky to ask God.He fell to the ground to check his head.Arouse, sit down; drink tea, the taste is like orchid.He also ordered the boy to lead him away to bathe in the pool.The water in the pool is clean, and the swimming fish can be counted.

Qu Zhi had reached the appointment date, so he ordered his servants to go to Hebei.If you visit, there is Lu Hubu.First of all, Mr. Lu gave birth to a daughter, who was able to speak, grew up to be beautiful, and was loved by his parents the most.Your family is a poultry, and women don't want to.It's a strange question, and it's about the appointment before his death.For a total of years, he laughed and said: "Idiot maid!"Zhang Langji is half a hundred years old this year, his personnel have changed, and his bones have rotted;Women don't listen.Seeing that his ambition was unshakable, his mother conspired with Lu Gong, admonishing the people of the market not to pass by, and hopeless for him after the expiration date.Not long after, when the birth arrived, the Yan people refused.Returning to the hostel, regretting that there is nothing to do.I wandered around the suburbs and visited them unannounced.The woman said that she failed to make a promise, and she couldn't eat when she shed tears.The mother said: If he doesn't come, he must have died; even if he doesn't, the crime of breaking the alliance is not your fault.The woman does not speak, but lies down all day long.Lu Zhezhi also thought that when he saw a living being a human being, he was entrusted to travel and meet a living being in the wild.Seeing it, the young man is also surprised.Ban Jing briefly talked, very suave.Gongxi, invited to his home.Fang will inquire, Lu immediately gets up, asks the guest to sit alone for a while, and rushes in to tell his daughter.Girl Xi, start on your own.Peeping at the discrepancy, he returned with zero tears, complaining about his father's bullying.Public power is nothing.The woman was speechless, but could not stop weeping.On a business trip, I feel depressed, and I don't listen to the guests.Sheng asked: Is there any nobleman who is a householder?The public comics should.He looked at him first, but he didn't seem to be a guest.Feeling slow, he resigned.The girl died after crying for several days.The girl who gave birth to Yemeng came and said, "Your servant, Guojun?"The age and appearance are different, and the face-to-face will cause a violation.The concubine died of worry and anger.If you go to the temple of the earth to summon my soul quickly, you can live, but if you are too late, you will not be able to catch up.After waking up, I hurriedly explored Lu's gate, and it turned out that a woman died within two days.He mourned greatly, and then hanged himself in his room.I told Lu with my dream.According to his words, Lu recalled his soul.Open his quilt, caress his corpse, and congratulate him.He heard a gurgling sound in his throat, and suddenly saw Zhu Ying suddenly opened, and phlegm fell like ice.Moved to the couch, gradually moaning again.Lu Gongyue, suke out, set up wine and banquet.It is a pleasure to show the officials in detail and know their great masters.Choose auspiciousness and become a gift.Living for half a month, he returned with his daughter.Lu sent him home and left in half a year.The couple's room is like a couple.Those who don't know often mistake their children and wives for their aunts.Lu Gong died in over a year.The youngest son, was slandered by the powerful, and his family property was almost wiped out.Born to welcome and raise it, so the family Yan.
