The man tripped over a brick by the river and picked it up to sit on the table, so he made a marriage
In an ancient and quiet village, there lives a young man named Li Er. Li Er is burly and honest, and he is busy working in the fields all day long, and rarely has time to enjoy the pleasures of life. His family was poor, with only a shabby table and a few stools, but these simple furniture were all his belongings.
One evening, Li Er carried water home from the river, and the afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on the sparkling river, reflecting golden spots of light. He was walking intently when he suddenly slipped under his feet, and the whole person threw himself forward, almost falling. It turned out that it was a green brick half-buried in the dirt that tripped him. Li Er rubbed his sore knee, feeling a little unhappy in his heart, but when he looked down at the green brick, he found that it was not an ordinary thing.
This piece of blue brick is simple in color, and it is carved with strange patterns, which seems to contain some kind of mysterious power. Li Er's heart moved, thinking that maybe this brick could be worth a few dollars, so he picked it up and brought it home. When he got home, he washed the brick and found that it was a beautiful antique brick, with clear lines on it, as if telling an ancient story.
Li Er thought to himself that instead of selling this brick for some meager silver taels, it would be better to put it on the table, which could not only increase the height of the table, but also use it as an ornament. So, he placed the bricks under the table legs, flat and stable.
From that day on, Li Er noticed that something unusual seemed to be in his home. When night falls, there is always a bowl of steaming food on the table, and the aroma is mouth-watering. Li Er wondered in his heart, there was no one else at home, who made this meal? He looked around, but there was no one in sight.
As the days passed, the doubts in Li Er's heart became heavier and heavier. He was determined to find out the truth behind this. One night, he pretended to go out to work, but in fact he hid outside the door and secretly observed. Soon, he saw that the house was brightly lit, and a graceful figure appeared in his sight.
The woman was dressed in ancient costume, with long hair fluttering and a beautiful appearance, like a fairy walking out of a painting. She walked lightly to the table and began to set the dishes and chopsticks with skillful and graceful movements. Li Er was dumbfounded, and an inexplicable emotion surged in his heart.
At that moment, the woman seemed to sense something and looked up at the door. Li Er's heart tightened, for fear of being discovered by her, but he couldn't help but want to see this woman's face clearly. He took a deep breath and walked in boldly.
When the woman saw Li Er, she was stunned at first, and then showed a gentle smile. She whispered, "You're finally here." Li Er was confused and at a loss for what to do. When the woman saw this, she explained, "I am the river god of this river, and I have come to repay you because I am grateful to you for saving me from captivity among the bricks." ”
It turned out that this green brick was the seal of the river god, and she had been trapped in it for a long time, until Li Er picked it up and was able to regain her freedom. In order to thank Li Er for his kindness, the river god prepared meals for him every night to express his gratitude.
After listening to the river god's explanation, Li Er was full of emotion in his heart. He didn't expect that an unintentional move by himself would lead to such a wonderful fate. He looked at the gentle gaze of the river god, and an inexplicable feeling welled up in his heart.
Since then, Li Er has lived with the river god in this peaceful village. They support each other, work together, and live a simple and happy life. The river god not only brought a warm family atmosphere to Li Er, but also used his divine power to help the villagers solve many problems. The villagers were full of respect and gratitude for Li Er and the river god.
However, the good times were short-lived. One day, the sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds, lightning and thunder. A vicious youkai appears over the village and threatens to capture the river god and return to his captivity. Seeing this, Li Er stepped forward and vowed to protect the river god from harm.
The monster laughed and sneered at Li Er. It stretched out its huge claws and grabbed at Li Er. Although Li Er is brave, where is the opponent of the monster. Seeing that Li Er was about to die, the river god suddenly turned into a golden light and blocked in front of Li Er.
The golden light collided with the youkai's claws, making a deafening loud noise. The monster was shaken and retreated, and the river god also consumed a lot of divine power. She knows that she is no match for youkai, but in order to protect Li Er and the peace of the village, she decides to fight the youkai with all her might.
The river god turned into a golden light and engaged in a fierce battle with the youkai. Li Er was stunned by the side, and his heart was full of respect and gratitude for the river god. He prayed that the river gods would defeat the yokai and protect their peaceful home.
After a thrilling battle, the river god finally defeated the vicious youkai with his firm faith and endless love. The monster turned into a puff of black smoke and dissipated into the air. And the river god also became weak because he consumed too much divine power.
Li Er hurriedly stepped forward to support the river god, his eyes full of worry. The river god smiled and comforted him, "Don't worry, I'm fine." It just takes a while to regain divine power. Li Er held the hand of the river god tightly, his heart full of gratitude and happiness.
Brew a decoction for her to condition her body. And the river god also gradually regained his divine power during this time. She felt Li Er's meticulous care, and her heart was full of warmth and happiness.
As the days passed, the river god's body finally fully recovered. She decided to do something for Li Er and the villagers again to repay their kindness. So, she used her magic power to bring clear water to the village, giving life to the parched land.
The villagers cheered and thanked the river god for his gifts. They knew that it was all because Li Er saved the river god that they had a happy life today. Li Er also won the respect and love of the villagers because of his good deeds.
The river god looked at the happy smiles of Li Er and the villagers, and his heart was also full of satisfaction and joy. She decides to stay in this village forever and spend the rest of her life with Li Er. They ploughed the fields, farmed the land, and lived a simple and happy life.
Over time, the story of Li Er and the river god spread throughout the countryside. People say that kind people will always get good rewards, just like Li Er. And the river god also proved the mercy and kindness of the gods with his actions.
With the joint efforts of Li Er and the river god, the village became more and more prosperous. Their love has also become a good story in people's mouths and has been sung through the ages. The miraculous green brick is also regarded as a mascot by the villagers, and is enshrined in the village temple to pray for peace and happiness.
Time flies, and the days of Li Er and the river god go by quickly. Their love is like the clear river at the edge of the village, calm and deep. The river god not only used her divine power to help the villagers improve their lives, but also taught Li Er many truths about how to behave in the world, making him more mature and stable.
One day, the river god suddenly said to Li Er: "I am a heavenly god, although I stayed here because I am grateful to you, but one day I need to return to the heavenly realm." Now that the heavenly summons has arrived, I have to leave. When Li Er heard this, although he was reluctant to give up in his heart, he still endured his grief and said: "You are a god, and you have your own mission and place. I'll be here for you, no matter how long it takes. ”
When the river god heard this, he was moved to tears. She hugged Li Er tightly and said, "I will finish dealing with the affairs of the Heavenly Realm as soon as possible, and then come back to you." In the meantime, you have to take good care of yourself and wait for me to come back. With that, the river god turned into a golden light, soared into the sky, and disappeared into the sky.
Li Er looked at the direction in which the river god had left, his heart full of longing and expectation. He knew that the love between them had transcended the boundaries of mortals and had become a legend between heaven and earth.
In the days when the river god left, Li Er guarded the village alone and continued to live a plain and fulfilling life. He often stood by the river, looking into the distance, looking forward to the return of the river god.
Finally, one day, the familiar golden light appeared in the sky again. The river god is back, and a happy smile is on her face. She told Li Er that she had completed the mission of the Heavenly Realm and could now stay by his side forever.
After Li Er heard this, he was so excited that he burst into tears. He hugged the river god tightly, as if to merge her into his own blood. From then on, they never had to be separated, and they could live happily ever after in this peaceful village.
Their story spread throughout the countryside and became a good story. Whenever someone mentions the love story of Li Er and the river god, they will sigh and be moved by their steadfastness and perseverance.
And that magical blue brick also continues to be enshrined in the village temple, witnessing the love legend between Li Er and the river god.
