Lijia Village is a village at the foot of the mountain, there is an old man in the village, the old man is called Li Changgen. Li Changgen is an old bachelor who is 49 years old.
One afternoon, Li Changgen went up the mountain to cut firewood. When he reached a hillside, he suddenly found a beautiful woman of eighteen or nineteen years old, a beautiful woman who was crazy. Li Changgen hurriedly walked toward the mad woman. When the mad woman saw Li Changgen walking toward her, she turned around and ran, talking nonsense as she ran. Li Changgen said in his heart, this crazy woman is very pitiful, if she encounters a wolf alone in the mountains, she will be in trouble, I will still take her home, then she will be safe. Li Changgen finished speaking in his heart and chased after the crazy woman.
Li Changgen has been up the mountain for many years, so although he is 49 years old, he is agile, so he quickly catches up with the crazy woman and then catches the crazy woman. After the crazy woman was caught by Li Changgen, she struggled desperately, but she was a woman after all, and her strength was not as big as Li Changgen's, so no matter how she struggled, she couldn't escape.
After Li Changgen brought the crazy woman home, the villagers came to see the crazy woman, and they talked about it after seeing the crazy woman. A big aunt said to Li Changgen: "Long root, you brought this crazy woman to the house, do you want to raise her?" After listening to his aunt's words, Li Changgen said: "I saw her pitiful and brought her home from the mountain, and my plan is to find a way to cure her." ”
The next morning, Li Changgen took the crazy woman to the home of the old man in the town. After examining the mad woman's body, Lao Langzhong said to Li Changgen, "This woman became crazy because she was stimulated, but I can't cure her, you should take her to the big medical hall in the county town for treatment." ”
In the afternoon, Li Changgen hired a carriage and took the crazy woman to the county seat. After they arrived at the county seat, Li Changgen found the largest medical center in the county, but Langzhong checked the mad woman's body and told Li Changgen that he could not cure the crazy woman, and suggested that Li Changgen take the crazy woman to the big medical hall in the provincial city for treatment, but it would take about 200 taels of silver to the provincial city for treatment.
After Li Changgen brought the crazy woman home, he calculated in his heart that if he sold an old mansion in his family, he could sell more than 200 taels of silver. Half a year ago, a middle-aged man in the antique business once looked for him to buy his family's old house, and the price of the middle-aged man was more than 200 taels of silver, but he did not sell it. When the middle-aged man was leaving, he told him his home address and said to him: "In the future, if you want to sell your old house, you can find me." ”
Three days later, Li Changgen sold the old mansion for 250 taels of silver, and then took the crazy woman to the provincial city. After they arrived in the provincial capital, they found a large medical center in the provincial city. As a result, the mad woman was treated in the great medical hall for three months and returned to normal. After the mad woman returned to normal, she told Li Changgen that she was the daughter of a rich man in a small town in a county outside the county, and one day, she and a young man were playing by the river outside the town, and suddenly two middle-aged men ran out of the woods not far from the river. After two middle-aged men ran out of the woods, they ran to her and the beard. Frightened, she and the mane turned and ran, only to slip into the river and drown, and she was caught by two middle-aged men. Soon she and three other young women were taken to a mountain by two middle-aged men. While walking up the hill, she took advantage of the fact that the two middle-aged men were not paying attention and escaped. Because she panicked and fell off a cliff, she woke up and went crazy, and later she was caught by Li Changgen. After Listening to her, Li Changgen said to her, "Well, I'll send you home." ”
After Li Changgen sent the crazy woman home, the crazy woman's parents thanked Li Changgen, and when the crazy woman's parents learned that Li Changgen was an old bachelor, they gave a beautiful lady from the family to Li Changgen as a wife. In addition, the mad woman's parents also gave Li Changgen 5,000 taels of silver.
As for the two middle-aged men, they were later captured by the local county servants. It turned out that after Li Changgen left with a beautiful girl, the mad woman's parents took the crazy woman to the county court to report the case. After Zhixian received the report, he found a beautiful 18-year-old woman as bait and lured the two middle-aged men out, and after the two middle-aged men were lured out, they were caught by the servants. In the public court of the county court, two middle-aged men confessed to the crime, and it turned out that they had been traffickers for more than 20 years, abducting and trafficking a total of 357 young women. Zhixian said to them, "You have committed a terrible crime, and I will sentence you to death, and after half a month, you will be beheaded." Half a month later, two middle-aged men were asked to be beheaded.
Moreover, after Li Changgen returned to Lijia Village with a beautiful beard, the villagers said one after another that Li Changgen had a good conscience and received a blessing.
