This nine-headed bird is too powerful. It has a big head in the middle and four small heads on the left and right. It can summon wind, rain and smoke. When I first came, I forced people to pay tribute to pigs and sheep on schedule, and later I forced people to send boys and girls to it on schedule. That doesn't count. Who has a young girl, as long as it finds out, it unconsciously takes her away. People can't stand its scourge, so they have to leave their homes and flee far away. Zhong Yi's father is a man full of hatred. Once the Nine-headed Bird robbed a neighbor's girl at night, and Zhong Yi's father found out. He picked up an axe and carried a bow and arrow on his back to fight with the nine-headed bird. He threw an axe and cut off a claw of the nine-headed bird. An arrow went off, injuring the left eye of the middle head of the nine-headed bird. The nine-headed bird shot an arrow and the girl was saved. The next day, Zhong Yi's father went up the mountain to get firewood as usual. As soon as he entered the valley, he heard a voice shouting, "Give me back my eyes!" " "He was busy taking out the bow and arrow. Before the arrow could be set up, the nine-headed bird swooped down, stretched out its claws like iron hooks, caught him in the air, spread its wings and disappeared.
At that time, Zhong Yi just turned one year old. Now another sixteen years have passed. Zhong Yichang is so old that he doesn't know his father's history, and he can't figure out why there are so few people in this area.
Zhong Yi is seventeen years old and burly. His mother said he was prettier than his father. Zhong Yi has good martial arts, but there is no place to show it.
On this day, Zhong Yi walked back with a bundle of firewood and saw a big bird and a small white snake fighting. The little white snake is about to be killed by a big bird. Zhong Yi hates bullying the weak. When he saw the little white snake being piteously caught by the big bird, he put down the firewood, drove away the big bird and rescued the little white snake. The little snake was saved, woke up, made a quick roll, and became a boy in white. He kowtowed to Zhong Yi and thanked him for saving his life.
Zhong Yi was surprised and asked the boy in white, "What is this?" The boy in white replied, "I am Xiaobailong, the son of the Dragon King of the East China Sea. My father instructed me to guard Liu Lihe. It was the nine-headed bird that I fought with just now. It's coming to grab my water bottle. " Zhong Yi asked, "What's the use of your water bottle? Why did it grab it? "
The little white dragon took out a shiny bottle from his arms and said, "This is a treasure bottle. With it, it can dominate the river. Fortunately, my brother saved me, otherwise the water bottle would have fallen into the hands of the nine-headed monster. It is trying to catch this bottle, and this area is in danger of being flooded. " Later, the boy in white gave Zhong Yi a gift and said, "I will repay you for saving my life. Now I have to hurry back to the river. " He'll flash and disappear.
Zhong Yi came home and told her mother what happened on the road. This reminds my mother of a sad heart. The mother told a pair of children about her father's struggle with the nine-headed bird when he gave his life to save others.
Zhong Yi comforted his mother and said, "Mom, don't worry, I must take revenge for this!" "
It was a dry year. The Liuli River dried up and the crops in this area withered. The boy in white is holding a water bottle and gently filling the river with water. A clear stream of water flows carefully in the river. The crops on both sides of the strait woke up and turned green. The boy in white is concentrating on water injection. At this moment, suddenly a black-faced man came and tried to rob the young man of the Aquarius. The boy in white has no time to collect water bottles. He protected the bottle with one hand and struggled with the black man with the other. This black man is the hydra.
The boy in white struggled with the man in black for two hours. The man in black was strong and the more he fought, the more fierce he became. The boy in white is weak and can only parry when he sees it, but he has no strength to fight back. He is desperate to keep Aquarius. Black Han lost his strength when he saw the boy in white, and kicked the Aquarius in his hand. The water bottle fell to the ground, and the water in the bottle gushed out from the mouth of the bottle. The boy in white tried to take back the Aquarius, but he was knocked down by the man in black. The boy in white couldn't beat the man in black, so he had to roll on the spot, turn into a little white dragon and jump into a huge stream. The man in black also showed his true colors and became a nine-headed bird. He stretched out his huge claws to catch it. The nine-headed bird didn't catch the little white dragon, circled in the air, swooped down, and flew away upside down with the water bottle. The water in the water bottle poured down like a waterfall. Heavy rain, flash floods. There is a piece of Wang Yang around here. The fields were flooded and the villages were flooded.
Zhong Yi rode on a big piece of wood, carrying his mother and drifting with the water. In front, a drowning man, with his head down in the flood, shouted, "Help, help!" " Zhong Yi rode through the Woods to save the man, and then went on drifting. The wood floated to a high ground and landed on the shore. The man kowtowed to Zhong Yi and thanked him for saving his life. Because there is nowhere to go, he wants to become sworn brothers with Zhong Yi. This man's name is Wang En.
From then on, Zhong Yi and Wang En became Bai Xu's brothers. Zhong Yi goes up the mountain to chop wood and sell it every day. Wang En took the money to buy firewood and went to the market to buy rice.
On this day, Zhong Yi was chopping wood in the deep mountain when a sudden gust of wind blew, flying sand and stones, and it was dark. When the wind began to blow, a big bird flew in the air. The big bird's paw caught a woman with long hair.
Zhong Yi knew that this bird was a nine-headed monster. He didn't have time to take the bow and arrow, so he threw the axe at the big bird. I only heard the big bird "wow", rolled in the air, raised its wings and flew towards the deep mountains. When the big bird rolled, something fell. Zhong Yi picked it up and saw that it was an embroidered shoe inlaid with jewels. He picked up the axe and saw blood on it. Look at the ground again, there are drops of blood, dripping along its flight route.
Zhong Yi followed the blood. Blood led him to the depths of the ravine, and behind a big stone, the blood disappeared. Look carefully, there is a deep hole under the big stone. He tried to move the big stone. He moved twice, but the stone did not move. It seems that the Hydra is in this hole. He left a mark and went back.
Wang En bought rice in the market and then went back. He heard people say to each other, "There is a royal map on the city gate. Come and see! " Wang En was curious and followed everyone to see it. He saw on the yellow sheet: "The fairy robbed the princess, and whoever can save the princess is called Xu."
It was dark, so Wang En ate alone. Zhong Yi's mother didn't eat. She is waiting for her son. Late at night, Wang En slept, Zhong Yi's mother didn't sleep, and her son hasn't come back yet. She is eager to sit or stand. Mother whispered to Wang En, "Wang En, Zhong Yi is afraid of an accident. Go and meet him. " Wang En turned over and put his head into the quilt.
Mother is worried that Zhong Yi will come back. Zhong Yi comforted his mother and told the story of the nine-headed monster catching a woman and what happened to him and the nine-headed monster. Say that finish, and took out Hong Xiuxie from the bosom to his mother, and said, tomorrow must go to catch the nine-headed bird monster.
Wang En listened to Zhong Yi, stole a look at Hong Xiuxie, thinking that this woman is probably the princess mentioned on the royal tour. He stood up sideways and said, "Mom, I will catch monsters with Brother Zhong Yige tomorrow."
Mother didn't expect Wang En to have such courage. She was glad that he said, "OK, OK."
Zhong Yi found a horse and rode it with Wang En to catch the monster. They walked along the rugged mountain road into the mountains. The road is getting more and more dangerous, and from time to time there are wolves, tigers and leopards roaring. Wang En was afraid and wanted to go back. Zhong Yi advised him: "Hold on a little longer, the front is not far away." Wang En didn't listen, so he turned his horse's head and walked back. Seeing that he could not be persuaded, Zhong Yi said, "If you want to go back, leave me the horse." Wang En had no choice but to leave in a fit of pique.
Zhong Yi was alone and rode on.
After a walk, I saw a white-haired old woman looking at Taoyuan. Zhong Yi walked, hot and thirsty. He dismounted and saluted, asking his grandmother to give him some water to drink. Grandma said, "There is no water. Let me pick a peach for you. " Grandma went into the garden, picked two peaches and gave them to Zhong Yi. Zhong Yi picked up the peach and put it in his mouth. The old woman quickly stopped and said, "Young man, eat that. This is for your enemy. "
Zhong Yi ate grandma's peaches, neither thirsty nor hungry, and gained thousands of pounds of strength. He said goodbye to his grandmother and walked on.
Wang En went back for a ride. Seeing that it was difficult to go back, he turned his head to catch up with Zhong Yi. When he saw that Zhong Yi had left, he accelerated his pursuit.
Zhong Yi came to the mouth of the cave, and then moved the big stone stuck in the mouth of the cave. This time, he moved the big stone effortlessly. Then Wang En also arrived. He was surprised to see Zhong Yiyou moving stones with such great strength. He was afraid that the monster would run out of the hole and watch from a distance. Zhong Yi tied a bronze bell and a laundry list at one end of the rope and slowly fell to the bottom of the hole. Tie the end left outside the hole to a big tree with two bells. A pulley is tied to the big tree, and the big rope passes through the pulley and is tied to the pole of the horse. As soon as the bell rang and the horse pulled forward, the laundry list was brought up. When everything is ready, he will go down the hole. Seeing that the monster didn't run out, Wang En came out to help Zhong Yi prepare. He pulled the rope that fell into the hole and whispered, "The hole is so deep!" " "Looking at the darkness rumbling again, it scared him to stumble back. Zhong Yi encouraged him and said, "Brother Wang En, you are here. Don't be afraid. You wait on it and let the horse pull the rope out when you hear the bell ring. " Wang En didn't look up, "hmm".
Zhong Yi grabbed the rope with both hands, hooked his legs on the rope, and slowly slid down the rope to the bottom of the hole. He took out Song Mingdian and found a passage on one side of the cave wall. He took an axe from his waist, held it in his hand and walked along the passage. Walking, suddenly enlightened, a strange world appeared: there is a huge square, opposite the square is a high fence, and the door on the fence is tall and big. There is a small river outside the fence, and a girl is pumping water by the river. The water pump in her hand looks like a little white dragon's water bottle. The girl, with a sad face and without looking up, struggled to fetch water.
Zhong Yi is afraid that this girl is the monster of the nine-headed bird. He was afraid to go forward and observe in the dark. When he saw that his aunt had no shoes on one foot, he decided that it was the princess snatched by the nine-headed bird. Zhong Yi took out embroidered shoes from her arms and looked at them. They happen to be a pair of girls' feet. Zhong Yi decided to return the shoes to the princess. The princess found the water bearer and saw that the man was holding his shoes in his hand. She understood most of it. She quickly stood up and waved her hand to stop: "Don't go forward, don't go forward!"
Zhong Yi, stop. The princess came over and said, "You are the one who cut the monster!" " You can't go any further, or you will fall into the monster's net. "Zhong Yi asked," where is the monster? "God said," You cut off one paw of that monster, and now he is lying in it to recuperate. He took me away from me and forced me to be his wife. I would rather die than follow, so he gave me this bottle to fetch water. But this bottle is never full, and the old monster tortures me like this. "
Zhong Yi picked up the bottle and looked at it. He said, "Isn't this the little white dragon's water bottle? Do you know where the little white dragon is? " The princess shook her head. Zhong Yi asked again, "Can you take me to see the Hydra?" The princess nodded.
The princess led Zhong Yi, bypassed the net set by the nine-headed bird, and went in carefully. Zhong Yi took a peach out of his arms and gave it to the princess. He said, "Go in first and try to make the Hydra eat it." The princess nodded and went in first with the peach. Zhong Yi is hiding outside with an axe in his hand.
When the princess went in, the man in black lying on the bed suddenly sat up and cried, "Is the water full?"
The princess replied softly, "It's full."
"I don't believe it! What about the bottle? "
"I can't take it to the river." The princess answered more and more feminine.
"I won't listen, you are lying to me!" Black people are angry.
Why are you so angry? The princess said coquetry, "Look, I found a peach by the river. Look, how fresh it is! I don't want to eat. I don't think your injury has healed. You should eat this food to nourish it. You ate this peach and healed the wound. At that time, I listened to you. "
After listening to the princess, Heihan felt comfortable in every pore and said, "My baby, you finally understand." Okay, I'll eat, I'll eat. "He took the peach from the princess and gulped it down. While eating, I said, "Good peach, good peach, it tastes so sweet." Heihan swallowed the last bite of the peach and quietly came in. Seeing someone coming, Heihan jumped out of bed and went to the wall to get his trident. Hardly had he taken the fork off the wall when it fell to the ground. He bent down to get a fork, which seemed to weigh thousands of kilograms. He ate three, but didn't move.
At this moment, Zhong Yi jumped up with a step, cut down with an axe, and Heihan hid to one side. Zhong Yi's axe was cut too hard, and he cut into the wooden pier behind, but he couldn't pull it out. Black Han stretched out his claws to catch Zhong Yi. Step aside, pick up three forks, turn around and stab the black man. Heihan suddenly became a bird with nine heads and spread his wings to fly, but he was too weak to fly. Knowing that he had eaten the princess's peach, the monster was cheated and turned around to chase the princess. The princess turned and fled to the door. The nine-headed bird was about to go out when Zhong Yi's fork suddenly pricked, and three heads of the nine-headed bird fell to the ground. When the bird with nine heads came back, Zhong Yi picked up another fork and dropped its three heads. At this time, the nine-headed bird has only three heads left, and there is no strength on it. Knowing that it couldn't bear it, it ran away desperately. Zhong Yi took the bow and arrow, and the arrow shot out. The monster should fall to the ground. Zhong Yi went to mend a fork again, and the last three heads fell off.
Zhong Yi saw that the nine-headed bird was dead, so he plucked a feather from its wing, put it in his hat, and went out to meet the princess. When the princess saw Zhong Yi coming out, she breathed a sigh of relief and asked with concern, "Strong man, aren't you hurt?" Zhong Yi replied, "I'm not hurt. Go, I'll take you back to the palace. "
Seeing that Zhong Yi was honest, brave and handsome, the princess fell in love with the young man deeply. She said to Zhong Yi, "When you were fighting with the nine-headed bird just now, I secretly prayed for you. I also secretly made a wish. " She looked at Zhong Yi, bowed her head and didn't have the courage to go on.
"What oath have you taken?" Zhong Yi asked. "
I swear, if you can beat the nine-headed bird, I will marry you if you want me. "
Zhong Yi doesn't know how to express it. When the princess saw that he agreed, she took a gold hairpin from her head and handed it to Zhong Yi. Zhong Yi took the gold hairpin and thought there was nothing to return, so she broke it in half, one for the princess and the other for her collection.
Zhong Yi led the princess out of the passage, came to the bottom of the cave, and found the laundry list already prepared. Zhong Yi let the princess go first, and the princess also let Zhong Yi go first. After some concessions, the princess said, "Otherwise, let's go together." Zhong Yi said: "No, the laundry list can't be opened, and the rope can't stand it." He couldn't help the princess, so he arranged the princess in a laundry basket and pulled the copper bell tied to the rope himself.
Wang En has been waiting outside the cave for a long time. He is both anxious and afraid. Suddenly I heard the bell, asked, and led the horse to a laundry list. As soon as the laundry basket came out of the hole, Wang En saw that it was not Zhong Yi sitting inside, but a beautiful princess. He moved in his heart, put away the rope and stopped putting it down. Instead, he picked up some big stones and threw them down. Then he said, "Let's go, the goblin is coming, let's go!" "
The princess has just been pulled out of the hole, and the strong sunshine outside blinded her. When she heard Wang En say begin, she said, "Wait, Zhong Yi is still in there." Wang En didn't listen to her, so he put her on horseback, jumped on it, whipped her ass a few times and ran away. Zhong Yi is waiting for Wang En to put down the laundry list at the bottom of the cave. Except for a few stones, there is no sign of laundry list or rope. Zhong Yi tried to climb the stone, but it was steep and slippery. He'll look inside later. Walking, I suddenly heard a voice calling for help: "Brother Zhong Yi, help me." Zhong Yi recognized the cry of the little white dragon and immediately ran towards it.
Since his daughter was caught by the monster, the emperor has been very anxious and can't eat any food. Every day, he urges people to look for her. Then the eunuch came in and reported that the princess had come. Hearing this, the emperor was overjoyed and immediately sent someone to see the Lord and the demon slayer.
After a while, the eunuch took the princess into the temple, and Wang En waited outside. Seeing that the princess was safe and sound, the emperor immediately ordered: "Send it back to the palace to rest." The princess cried and said, "Father, the demon slayer hasn't come yet …" The emperor didn't pay attention to what his daughter said, so he asked the eunuch to send her back to the harem.
Wang En entered the temple, knelt down and shouted, "See you later!" The emperor asked, "Who are you?" Wang En said: "The courtiers are Wang En who saved the princess by killing the devil." The emperor said, "Didn't you say the exorcism hasn't come yet? Now that I'm here, I'll take you to Chengen Palace to rest. " Then pass the imperial edict, let the eunuch take a thank-you gift first and send it to Chengen Palace to wait for the imperial edict.
In addition, Zhong Yi followed the sound and came to a steep cliff. When he looked up, he saw the little white dragon locked on a big stone on a steep cliff. Zhong Yi has become stronger since he ate the peaches given by his grandmother. He pushed down the big stone, broke the chain and saved the little white dragon. When the little white dragon touched the ground, it rolled on the spot and became a white boy. Zhong Yi handed him the water bottle, and he thanked Zhong Yi again and again. Zhong Yi said, "The monster has been beheaded, but this hole can't get out." Xiao Bailong said, "It's not difficult to get out of the hole. I can carry you out. " The white boy crouched down and let Zhong Yi fall on his back and closed his eyes. As soon as the clock closed its eyes, the boy in white turned into a little white dragon, jumped into the air and flew away. When he opened Zhong Yi's eyes, he had returned to the Dragon Palace.
The old dragon king was very happy when he heard that his son was saved and returned to the palace. He ordered wine for the strong man. The next day, Zhong Yi wanted to say goodbye and go home. Xiao Bailong said, "I'm not busy. I took my brother home. " The old dragon king thanked him for saving the child, and ordered him to take many treasures from the palace from Zhong Yi. Zhong Yi doesn't want anything. The old dragon king felt guilty. Xiao Bailong said, "I want one for my brother Zhong Yi, so please ask my father to take the gourd off his chest and let me take it away."
Xiao Bailong sent Zhong Yi home, and Zhong Yi's mother cried her eyes out for her son. Zhong Yi was very sad. Xiaobailong comforted: "Brother Zhong Yige, don't be sad. We will cure my mother's eyes. With the gourd, we can overcome any difficulties. " With that, he took out a treasure gourd and taught Zhong Yi a trick. As soon as Zhong Yi read the recipe, a small flower with dew appeared in the gourd. They dropped dew into their mother's eyes, and they immediately saw the light again. Mother told them to save the princess quickly, and then she told Wang En that she pretended to be a demon killer and wanted to possess the princess. Xiao Bailong said, "Don't worry, Mom, we're leaving." The little white dragon turned into a horse, carrying Zhong Yi, and headed for the palace.
Wang En bribed a eunuch to speak in the Temple of Grace. Wang En asked, "What's the new news?"
The eunuch said, "The princess said you didn't kill the demon."
Wang En said: "The princess was delirious at that time, and she may not know for a while."
After a while, Wang En was flattered and said, "Grandpa, I just came to the palace, and I hope you can teach me the rules of the palace."
Then he handed over a pair of brocade boxes: "This is a gift from the Holy One. Give it to your grandfather and share the favor of the emperor. "
The eunuch pretended to be polite: "How dare you? Since Xu loves me, the villain will ... "He said and put away the brocade box.
Wang En asked, "Grandpa, what do you think should be done next?"
The prefect said, "The princess is still thinking about killing demons. However, it doesn't matter, as long as you make arrangements quickly, once you get married. "
Wang En said, "It all depends on your grandfather."
The emperor ordered permission to enter the temple. The princess stopped crying and said, "He is not, he is not!" " "Once the emperor's words are spoken, they cannot be changed. He is helpless. He said, "Daughter, don't you want to? He sent you back to the palace! " The princess was too sad to speak.
The eunuch made a prelude: "Long live the wise! This is the list of emperors! "
It is difficult for the emperor to change his mind.
The princess said, "He is not a demon hunter. I am engaged to slay the demon for life, and we each have half a gold hairpin. "
The emperor said, "If you have a golden hairpin, bring it."
The eunuch went to Wang En to get Jin Chai, and Wang En said a few words to him.
The eunuch came back and said, "Your Majesty, you said that you were only interested in saving the princess, and Jin Chai lost half of it."
At this time, someone outside came in and reported, "There is a demon slayer named Zhong Yi who wants to go into the temple to see the emperor."
Wang En turned pale with fear. The eunuch didn't know what to do. The emperor heard that another demon killer had come, fearing to make a fool of himself in the palace. He ordered him to stay in an inn for the time being, and announced his retirement from the DPRK. We will discuss it tomorrow. sequence
The next day, Emperor Xuandi took Wang En and Zhong Yitong to the kitchens. The emperor ordered Zhong Yi to hand over half of the confrontation between Chai Jin and the princess. The eunuch tampered with it, but it couldn't be fixed. The emperor was furious and ordered Zhong Yi to be taken.
Zhong Yi said, "Wait a minute, I still have proof." Say, take out the feather of the nine-headed bird.
The emperor asked, "What's so strange about this feather?" Zhong Yi said, "This is the feather of the bird with nine heads. It is not afraid of fire. "
The emperor asked people to do experiments on the spot and put them in a vigorous charcoal fire basin. Sure enough, it burned for a long time, and the feathers didn't change at all.
The emperor had no choice but to announce, "It's up to God to catch the sedan chair tomorrow."
The next day, the palace prepared 20 sedan chairs, the decoration of which was exactly the same, and the clothes of the bearers were exactly the same. Wang En bribed the eunuch and secretly inserted a flower as a symbol behind the princess sedan chair. Wang En clearly remembers.
Sedan chairs were carried out in turn and passed in front of Taiji Hall. Wang En and Zhong Yi were waiting there to catch the sedan chair, and many people were watching. Xiaobailong turned into a white boy, mixed in the crowd and squeezed in front of Zhong Yi to remind him: "Treasure gourd!" "Zhong Yi secretly read the formula to treasure gourd. In an instant, countless bees flew out of the gourd. They flew behind the princess's sedan chair, separated the flowers one by one, moved them to another sedan chair and put them together again. Then fly to the princess's sedan chair door. Sedan chairs were carried one by one. Wang En remembered what the eunuch told him and only picked a sedan chair with flowers.
Zhong Yi stood there and saw a sedan chair carried up. There were bees flying around the door of a sedan chair. He went to the sedan chair, grabbed the handle of the sedan chair, shouted "Princess, you stay" and the sedan chair stopped.
Zhong Yi and Wang En each led the "Princess" out and headed for the main hall. When he came to the main hall, the emperor issued a decree: "Uncover the hijab!" The veil was lifted at the same time. In front of Zhong Yi stood a beautiful princess, and in front of Wang En happened to be the old eunuch he bought.
When the emperor found out the reason, he knew that he was an ungrateful man, and it was unforgivable for him to attempt to assassinate the strong man who cut off demons and remove demons and pretend to be Xu. Immediately issued the imperial edict: "Push out and behead!"
The princess married Zhong Yi and went back to the village in Zhong Yi to live with Zhong Yi's mother. The family lived a happy and harmonious life.
