Classic story "White Snake and Xu Xian"

Dong Bin sells dumplings.

This day is the third day of March in spring. The willow branches by the West Lake are green and the peach blossoms are brilliant red. There are many people playing around. Lv Dongbin, a fairy with eight holes, turned into an old man with white hair and beard and came to the West Lake to sell jiaozi. Lv Dongbin put his burden under a big willow tree next to the broken bridge. He looked at jiaozi floating in the pot, then opened his voice and shouted:

"Eat jiaozi, eat jiaozi! A brass cymbal buys three big dumplings; Buy one of the three brass cymbals for the steamed buns! "

People laughed at Lv Dongbin's crying. Some people say:

"Old man, you shouted wrong! Change the price of big dumplings and small dumplings! "

Lv Dongbin listen to also don't listen to, just call it:

"Big dumplings a brass cymbal to buy three; Buy one of the three brass cymbals for the steamed buns! "

People gathered around him carrying jiaozi. You pay a sum of money, I pay a sum of money to buy him a big jiaozi to eat. As soon as we had a rest in Guang Chen, the big jiaozi in the pot was fished out.

At this time, an old man in his fifties, holding a baby, also squeezed into the crowd. When Xiao Ya saw others eating jiaozi, she clamoured for it. But the big jiaozi was sold out, so the man had to take out three brass cymbals and buy a small jiaozi from Lv Dongbin. Lv Dongbin took the money, scooped up a bowl of boiling water first, then scooped up a small glutinous rice ball in the bowl, squatted down with the bowl, blew a breath into the bowl with his lips, and the small glutinous rice ball rolled around the rim of the bowl.

Little Yaer was so happy that he scooped up jiaozi and wanted to eat. As if alive, he suddenly got into his mouth and slipped into his stomach.

After eating jiaozi, Xiao Ya didn't eat for three days and nights. Dad was so anxious that he carried him under the big willow tree next to the broken bridge to find someone who sold jiaozi.

Lv Dongbin smiled when he saw it, so he took smiles send us light to the broken bridge. Suddenly, he grabbed his foot, hung it upside down and drank, "Come out!" " The small glutinous rice balls swallowed three days ago were actually spit out from his small mouth. Small dumplings landed on the broken bridge and rolled into the West Lake.

Under the broken bridge, there is a white snake practicing. White snake has practiced for 500 years and is spiritual. She often sticks her head out to see the world. She saw the sunny West Lake with many tourists. There are men and women, old and young, three in a pile, five in a row, some watching the scenery, some boating on the lake, some planting trees, some planting flowers, some laughing, some busy making a living ... White snake envies the bustling scene of this world. One day, she emerged from the bottom of the lake, and it happened that the small dumplings rolled down from the broken bridge and then swallowed them in one gulp.

A fairy party in China mythology, where birthday peaches are presented.

One morning, white smoke rose from the broken bridge, and a girl in a white sparkling tulle shirt emerged from the bottom of the lake. It's so beautiful, just like a lotus just emerging from the water! It turns out that Lv Dongbin's little jiaozi is an elixir. If the white snake swallows it, it will add 500 years of practice. The white snake has been cultivated for thousands of years and is now an adult. She gave herself a name, White Snake.

On the birthday of the Queen Mother, all the immortals went to the flat peach party. With so many immortals attending the meeting, the big and big Lingxiao halls were crowded with people. On this day, White Snake also went to heaven to celebrate her birthday. This is her first time here. As a stranger, she sat quietly in the last seat.

After a while, the fairy held a red flat peach and everyone began to eat Shousa. The queen mother also came out to meet the guests. She looked at the white snake, left to see that she didn't know, left to see that she didn't know, so she asked the old fairy Antarctic Xianweng:

"Who is that beautiful girl?"

The Antarctic fairy smoothed her glistening beard, approached Lv Dongbin and said:

"It's your turn to say this!"

Lv Dongbin was puzzled. He didn't know why. Seeing Lv Dongbin standing by, the Antarctic fairy smiled for a while and told the story of selling jiaozi by the West Lake. Lv Dongbin, the gods and fairies all laughed.

The words of the Antarctic fairy Weng aroused the anxiety of the white snake for many years. She thought, I have been practicing at the bottom of the lake for 500 years, and it has always been deserted! Seeing such a beautiful world on the lake, I can't live with people because I am a snake; Now that I have swallowed the elixir and can be an adult, I should go for a walk on earth! She also remembered the little girl who vomited on jiaozi and took her to see him.

Flat peach is about to break up, the white snake went to a worse place, saw the Antarctic fairy in front, just catch up and pull his big sleeve and ask:

"Old fairy, old fairy, tell me who is that vomit jiaozi smiles send us light? I want to meet him. "

Asked the Antarctic fairy Weng, who couldn't help laughing and saying:

"You when he is a duck! Travel to the sky. Eighteen years have passed on the earth, and that little girl has grown into a girl now! "

Hearing this, the white snake felt his heart move and asked again:

"Then how can I find him?"

"You go down to the west lake and look for it now. The tallest and shortest person is him. "

With that, the Antarctic fairy walked away through the clouds.

The tallest and shortest people

The white snake left the worse gate and landed on the Su Causeway of the West Lake. She walked along the Su Causeway. Walking to Yingbo Bridge, I saw an old beggar with a small green snake in his hand. When the little green snake saw the white snake, she shook her head and tail, and tears rolled down her eyes. The white snake felt sorry for him and asked the old beggar:

"Grandpa, grandpa, what are you doing with this snake?"

The old beggar said:

"Dig snake gall and sell money!"

Hearing this, the white snake looked at the little green snake again, feeling very sad, and said:

"Grandpa, I'll give you some money and sell it to me!"

The old beggar nodded in agreement.

The white snake bought a green snake, took it to the lake and put it into the water. Suddenly, there was a puff of smoke on the lake, and a little girl in a green dress in Tsing Yi emerged from the smoke. The White Snake happily grabbed her hand and said:

"Little girl, little girl, what is your name?"

"My name is Xiaoqing."

"Xiaoqing, Xiaoqing, please be my partner."

So Xiaoqing recognized the white snake as her sister and went with her.

Go, go, two people walk from the inner lake to the outer lake, and from the outer lake around the inner lake. The white snake took a few steps, stopped and looked around. Xiaoqing don't know why, she asked:

"Sister, sister, what are you looking for?"

White snake smiled and told Xiaoqing the mystery of the Antarctic fairy Weng, and let green gang guess.

This is a beautiful day in Tomb-Sweeping Day. Those who go up the mountain to sweep the grave, those who go for an outing by the lake and those who walk east and west are all here. There are more tourists near the broken bridge. White Snake and Xiaoqing walked through the crowd, looking for the tallest and shortest person. However, no tall man is short, and no short man is tall. Well, this person is really hard to find!

At noon, White Snake and Xiaoqing found the broken bridge again.

In this Guang Chen, under the big willow near the broken bridge, there is a circus performing acrobatics, and a large group of people are watching. Xiaoqing look here, look there, suddenly call way:

"Sister, sister, I found the tallest and shortest person!"

"Where is it? Where is it? "

"Well, look!" Xiaoqing pointed to the big willow tree. There was a little boy sitting in the tree.

The white lady looked at the young man and said,

"He is not tall!"

"He squatted on a tall tree, and people came and went from his crotch. Isn't this the tallest person! "

"He is not short!"

"His figure fell to the ground and people came and went from his head. Isn't this the shortest person! "

"Yes, yes, it must be him!" Mrs. Bai said to herself, "Old fairy, old fairy, your riddle is really difficult to guess!" " The tallest and shortest is actually a young man who is neither tall nor short! "

The white lady looked at the young man carefully. She is handsome and kind, which is surprising. It's just a young man squatting on a big willow tree, unknown, and I don't know his last name. How can he teach? Xiaoqing thought of a clever way to let the white lady do her work in secret. After a while, the sky was overcast, thunder rumbled and it rained heavily.

The circus team ended and the jugglers dispersed. The young man climbed down from the willow tree and ran to the West Lake. He called a boat and told the boatman to row to Qingbo Gate.

The boat just rolled away, and before the boatman put on the oars, the white snake cried on the shore:

"Grandpa rowing, give us a ride!"

Looking out from the cabin, the young man saw two girls standing on the shore, soaked to the skin, and told the boatman to dock and let them get on board.

As soon as they got on the boat, they thanked the younger generation. Xiaoqing asked the little epigenetic what his name was. Little epigenetic said:

"My name is xu. When I was a child, I met a fairy by the broken bridge, and my father named me Xu Xian. "

White snake and Xiaoqing looked at each other, and they nodded and smiled.

The white snake asked where Xu Xian lived. Xu Xian said:

"Since my father died, I have lived alone in Qingbomen with my sister."

Xiaoqing listened to, clap slap laughed.

"What a coincidence! Like you, my sister is a helpless and wandering person! In that case, you two are made for each other! "

Xu Xian blushed and the white snake bowed its head. The two of them were talking in high spirits when they suddenly heard a savage singing a folk song on the boat.

"The old ancestral temple is in sight,

A thousand miles of marriage is a thread.

Rowing the same boat on a stormy lake,

Tianya find a pillow to sleep! "

Dragon Boat Festival

After the White Snake and Xu Xian met on the boat in the West Lake, you liked me and I liked you. A few days later, they got married.

Now that Xu Xian has a wife, it is not convenient to stay at her sister's house. It's time for her to build an entrance. The young couple discussed it and moved to Zhenjiang with Xiaoqing to open a "Baohetang" pharmacy.

The pharmacy opened, White Snake prescribed medicine, and Xu Xian took medicine. They prepared many pills, powder, ointment and pills. There is a sign hanging in front of the shopkeeper's door: "poor medicine, nothing." The news spread from you to me, and "Baohetang" soon became famous. Every day, people come to ask for medicine when they are sick, and thank them when they are in good health. From morning till night, people come and go, almost crossing the threshold.

On the Dragon Boat Festival, calamus leaves are hung in front of every household, and realgar medicinal liquor is sprinkled on the ground. There are also dragon boat races on the Yangtze River below the Jinshan Mountain. The road was crowded with people and very lively.

Early in the morning, the white snake called Xiaoqing to her and said to her:

"Xiaoqing, Xiaoqing, today is the Dragon Boat Festival in May, do you still remember?"

"Sister, I remember."

"Three o'clock in the afternoon is the most difficult time. Go to the mountain to avoid it! "

"What about you?"

"I have a thousand years of practice, no better than you!"

"I think it's better to go together."

"We're both gone, so you should be in a hurry!"

Xiaoqing felt right and said, "Sister, be careful." I jumped out of the window and disappeared into the mountains.

Xiaoqing had just left when Xu Xian went upstairs. As he walked, he called:

"Xiaoqing, pack your things quickly. We all go to the river to see the dragon boat."

Hear Xu Xian called Xiaoqing, white snake turned to the stair head and said:

"My name is Xiaoqing to buy flowers! Go and see for yourself, and don't forget to bring some cakes as snacks. "

Xu Xian went upstairs, approached the white snake and said:

"We moved to Zhenjiang. Today is the first time to see a dragon boat. Please come with me! "

"I feel uncomfortable about myself. You'd better go by yourself and come back early after reading it. "

Hearing the white snake say that she was not feeling well, Xu Xian quickly brought a small square pillow, put it on the table, and moved the white snake's hand to feel the pulse. Take the right hand, get the left hand, Xu Xian call way:

"There is no disease! You coax me. "

"I didn't say I was sick, I was pregnant!"

When Xu Xian heard that he was going to be a father, he jumped three feet for joy. I don't even go to see the dragon boat race, but I have to spend the Dragon Boat Festival with White Snake at home.

At lunch time, Xu Xian asked Xiaoqing to go to the kitchen by herself before he came back, heated a pot of old wine, mixed it with realgar and took it upstairs. He sifted two sips of yellow rice wine and handed it to the white lady. The white lady took the wine lamp, smelled realgar, and rushed to her forehead, feeling unspeakable. He said:

"I don't drink. I'll have two cakes with you."

Xu Xian pestering said:

"Today is the Dragon Boat Festival. Have a drink whether you can drink it or not. "

"There is realgar in the wine, I'm afraid pregnant women can't eat it!"

Hearing this, the Xu Xian burst out laughing:

"Three generations of my ancestors all worked as drug stores. You treat me like a layman! This realgar wine can ward off evil spirits and soothe the nerves. You should eat two more! "

Afraid of Xu Xian's suspicion, Bai Niangzi dared to bite the bullet and drink realgar wine, because she was a real fairy for thousands of years. I didn't know that the wine broke out as soon as it fell into my stomach. He only felt headache, brain swelling, limp and unable to sit still.

The white lady climbed into bed. Xu Xian didn't know what had happened, so he rushed to the bed and lifted the curtain. When he saw that the white snake had disappeared, he saw a white snake on the bed, which scared him to shout, "Oh!" " I leaned back and fell to the ground.

Immortal grass

Xiaoqing hid in the mountains, thinking about the white snake. Looking at the sun hanging obliquely in the middle of the sky, it has been three minutes since noon, and I borrowed a cigarette to go home. She went upstairs and looked, alas! Xu Xian died in front of the bed, and the white snake was still sleepy in bed! Xiaoqing quickly woke up the white snake: "Sister, sister, get up and have a look. What's wrong? "

The White Snake burst into tears when she saw that Xu Xian was dead:

"It's all my fault. I accidentally revealed my true colors and scared the police officer to death!"

Xiaoqing said:

"Don't just cry, try to save him!"

The White Snake touched Xu Xian's heart, and with a little heat, she said:

"Earthly herbs can't be saved. I will go to Kunlun to steal the fairy grass! " As he spoke, he stamped his foot and drove a white cloud out of the window and flew to Kunlun Mountain.

Fly, fly, just for a moment, and fly to the top of Kunlun Mountain. Kunlun Mountain is a fairy mountain, full of fairy trees and flowers. There are several purple and gloomy grasses growing on the top of the mountain, which are Ganoderma lucidum and fairy grass that can bring back the dead. The woman in white bent down with a tree quietly in her mouth. She was about to drive away when she heard "Luo!" In the air. With a cry, the white crane guarding Ganoderma lucidum and Xiancao flew from the horizon. When it saw the white snake stealing the fairy grass, it spread its wings and stretched out its long beak. Just as it was about to peck at the white snake, it suddenly stretched out an elbow stick from behind and hooked the long neck of the white crane. The white snake turned around and saw an old man with a shiny beard. It turned out to be an Antarctic fairy. She cried and begged the Antarctic fairy Weng:

"Old fairy, old fairy, give me a ganoderma lucidum fairy grass and save my officer!"

The Antarctic fairy stroked his shiny beard and nodded in agreement.

The white snake thanked the Antarctic fairy Weng, took the ganoderma lucidum and fairy grass in his mouth, and quickly drove Bai Yunfei home. She boiled Ganoderma lucidum and Xiancao into medicinal juice and poured it into Xu Xian's mouth. After a while, Xu Xian came alive.

Mr. Xu Chao looked at the white snake and looked at it again and again. He turned and ran downstairs in fright and hid in the tent.

One day, two days, three days, three whole days and three nights, Xu Xian dared not set foot on the stairs. On the third night, White Snake and Xiaoqing came to the tent room and asked him:

"Officer, why didn't you come upstairs for three days and nights?"

Xu Xian don't know how to answer, just faltered out:

"The business in the store is good, and I am too busy to check out."

Xiaoqing couldn't help laughing:

""xianggong ",what is your account? Look, what's that in your hand? "

Xu Xian looked at his hand. It turned out that he was flustered and took the wrong old almanac! He couldn't get over it and had to tell the truth.

Hearing this, the white snake frowned and said:

"I am a good man, how can I become a white snake? You must be dazzled. "

Xiaoqing chimed in:

""xianggong "is not wrong, I also saw it. That day, I bought a flower thread. I heard "xianggong" shouting. By the time I ran upstairs, Xianggong had fainted on the ground. I saw a shiny white thing, like a snake and a dragon, flying out of the window and disappearing. "

White snake also said with a smile:

"Oh, so that's it! I'm sure the black dragon is in the sky, which coincides with our family's prosperous business and full house of children and grandchildren. It's a pity that my Guang Chen is sleepy, otherwise, I must light incense sticks to worship it! "

Xu Xian listened carefully to their words, and it was good to think about it carefully, and the doubts in his heart suddenly melted away.

Water overflows Jinshan

At that time, there was a turtle in the west, hiding under the Tathagata lotus to listen to the scriptures. After listening to the scriptures for several years, the tortoise also learned some spells. After listening to the Tathagata's words, he slept, stole his three treasures-the golden bowl, the cassock and the Qinglong mord, and ran to the world.

The tortoise turned a somersault on the ground and became a stout black monk. He thought he had powerful magic and superb skills, so he named him Fahai.

Fahai, a monk, took three stolen treasures with him: a cassock on his body, a golden bowl in his hand, and a Qinglong mord straddling his shoulders and wandering around. One day, he came to the Jinshan Temple in Zhenjiang and saw that the Yangtze River was magnificent, and the two mountains, Jin and Jiao, were magnificent. He settled down in the temple, practiced secretly, killed the old monk in charge and became an abbot himself.

Fahai monk suspected that the incense in Jinshan was not prosperous, so he spread the plague in Zhenjiang city and asked people to come to the temple to burn incense and make a wish. However, the "Piwendan" and "Quyi San" of Baohetang were very effective, so the plague could not spread. The monk Fahai was so angry that he pretended to be a monk, and there was a big wooden fish hanging on his chest. He took three steps, knocked and knocked, and found the Baohetang drugstore with a shake.

Fahai monk went to the front of Baohetang drugstore and looked inside. He saw that the husband and wife were busy writing prescriptions. At first, they were full of anger. When they asked around, they realized that all the panaceas of Baohetang were opened by white snakes. He carefully looked at his daughter-in-law in white gauze. Oh, dear! It turns out that this is not a mortal, but a white snake! Fahai monk ruthlessly bullet, silently sitting in Baohetang medicine to close the door, he saw the white snake has gone upstairs, naughty wooden fish, grandly walked into the store, took a Xu Xian together, and said:

"Donor, the business in your store is so prosperous, make a fortune for me."

Xu Xian asked about his fate. Fahai said:

"On July 15, Jinshan Temple will hold the Orchid Festival. Please get married and burn incense again, and ask the Bodhisattva to bless you with longevity and peace in the four seasons. "

After listening to his kind words, Xu Xian gave him a string of copper coins and wrote his name on the handout. Fahai monk walked out of the door and came back to take care of:

"July 15th, benefactor, you must come!"

How time flies! In a blink of an eye, July 15 is coming. On this day, Xu Xian got up early, put on clean clothes and said to the white snake:

"Dear, Jinshan will hold a bonsai festival today. Shall we burn incense together? "

The white snake replied:

"I'm pregnant, can't climb the mountain, you go. Come back early after burning incense. "

Xu Xian came to Jinshan Temple alone. As soon as he stepped into the gate, he was dragged into the meditation room by the monk Fahai. Fahai Monk said to Xu Xian:

"Donor, you're just in time. I will tell you honestly today: your woman is a demon! " Xu Xian a listen to angry:

"My wife is a good man, how can she be a demon! Don't talk nonsense. "

Fahai monk hypocritically smiled and said:

"No wonder benefactor, you have been fascinated by there. The old monk saw that she was a white snake! "

At this time, Xu Xian remembered what happened during the Dragon Boat Festival and was shocked. Fahai monk saw him become speechless and said:

"Don't go home, worship me as a teacher. With my Buddhist protection, I am not afraid of her harm! "

Xu Xian thought: My wife has deeper feelings for me than the sea. Even if she is a white snake, she can't hurt me. Now that I am pregnant, how can I leave her and become a monk! At this thought, he refused to become a monk anyway. The monk Fahai saw that Xu Xian refused, so he locked him up willy-nilly.

White snake waited for Xu Xian at home, but left and didn't come. One day, two days, three days, and on the fourth day, she couldn't help it any longer, so she and Xiaoqing rowed a boat to Jinshan Temple to find it.

The boat stopped at the foot of Jinshan, and White Snake and Xiaoqing climbed it. They met a young monk at the gate of the temple, and the white snake asked:

Fahai, a monk, was locked in the belly of a crab and could never get out again. Crabs used to walk straight. Since they got into the belly of the overbearing monk Fahai, they can no longer walk straight, so they can only crawl sideways. Until today, when we eat crabs, we can uncover its back shell and find this bald monk hidden inside!
