Legend of three generals

? The Spring Festival is coming soon. When I was young, it was time to listen to the stories told by my predecessors. This story is one of the stories I heard when I was a child. It is said that a long time ago, at the foot of the Three Generals Mountain in Conghua, there was a strong man in Zhangjiacun. 16 or 17 years old, he was 8 feet tall and weighed more than 200 kilograms. He has a big appetite and great strength, and he can do any farm work. He is a tenant farmer and lives by renting big landlords or ancestral halls. Half of the hard-harvested rice every year should be picked to the landlord's house or ancestral temple in the county for rent.

On this day, it is time to pay the rent again. Near noon, Popeye picked more than ten loads of rice and sent it to the landlord's barn. According to the usual practice, the tenant farmers take the rented grain to the landlord's house, and the landlord is prepared to entertain them for a light meal. The landlord looked at a dozen tons of rice and thought that there were ten people picking grain to pay the rent, so he ordered the kitchen to cook for ten people. At the beginning of dinner, he saw Popeye eating alone, and he soon ate all the meals for ten people. The landlord was a little angry and said, "You ate the food of ten people by yourself, but what did the other nine people eat?" ? Popeye said, in fact, I picked the Ten Years Valley myself. The landlord looked at the stacked ten-year valley and didn't believe that he picked it alone. Just say, did you really choose it yourself? Poppy said, I really picked it myself. The landlord thinks this person is dishonest, and one person can't carry ten tons of rice at all. 1000 kilograms! So he said, "Well, since you can pick ten loads of grain to pay the rent, you don't have to pay the rent this year." Popeye said after listening, really? No one believed what they said. The landlord said, "I'll write you a written evidence." You pick up ten loads of grain at a time, and I'll waive your rent this year. " Give me a long-term job for one year if I can't bear it. "Popeye agreed. The landlord is waiting to see Popeye's joke.

Poppy piled ten barrels of valleys into two piles, each with ten reeds, tied together with reed ropes, then picked them up with an extra-long and oversized pole and left. The landlord sent a bookkeeper to follow him to prevent the strong man from cheating in the middle. When they walked back to Zhangjiacun, Dali asked the cashier, "I forgot to ask the shopkeeper just now." I don't know if I can change my shoulder to choose. " There are more than ten miles from the county seat to Zhangjia Village in Sanjiangshan. He picked all the way without even changing his shoulders! Seeing that it was not far from Popeye's home, Mr. Accountant turned around and walked back. When he returned to the landlord's house, the landlord asked him, "Did he really choose ten loads of grain by himself?" ? The bookkeeper said, "It's true. It's almost his home, and he said he didn't ask the owner if he was allowed to change his shoulders! " The landlord was a little surprised. The story that Popeye picked out ten barrels of grain by himself spread. When people saw him, they called him Popeye instead of his name. Over time, people gradually forgot what his real name was.

After the spring of the following year, he vigorously continued to cultivate the land of the owner and continued to be his tenant farmer. In Niu Yi, one plows the fields. He tied two rakes together with a bamboo pole, with two cows pulling in front, which was twice as efficient as others, plowed more land and harvested more food. Some of his fields are in the canyon. Bandits often rob mountains, and no one is willing to plow the fields in the ravine, and the rent paid is much less. The strong man was not afraid of bandits, so he rented some Shan Ye to farm. He often drives cattle and rakes fields alone in the ravine, transplanting rice and cutting crops, which attracts the attention of bandits on the mountain.

? Once, after raking the fields, he just released two cows to graze on the mountain, when he saw a dozen bandits rushing down from the mountain with broadswords and spears, surrounded him and said that they were robbing him. He said, I'm empty-handed, and I have nothing to wear but a pair of cow's head pants. What's there to rob? You can't take the plows and rakes from the fields! "We don't want farm tools, we want two cows. Life is still a cow, you choose! " The bandit leader said. "Of course it's terrible!" The strong man said. "However, these two big cows have just finished raking the fields and are covered in mud. I washed it for you! " So he approached a big cow, grabbed its four feet and lifted it to the nearby Litang River. Wash it and bring it back. Then he took another big cow to the river, washed it and brought it back. Watching him lift two big cows effortlessly, the timid bandit got a little scared and began to retreat. Brave bandits still don't go. Then Popeye said to the remaining bandits, "These two Niu Gang are tired and walk slowly after raking the fields. You lead the way, and I'll take two cows with you, which is faster. " So he picked up a big cow in his right hand and put it on his left and right shoulders. These bandits thought that he had really sent the cattle to the bandit village, so they turned and walked on. At this time, Dali took advantage of the bandits' inattention to push the sharp horns of two big cows in front of several bandits, and the horns pierced the bandits and knocked them down. Poppy pushed two big cows over the bandits and asked, "Do you want me to take them to the stockade? Do you want to be awesome or deadly? " Several bandits were crushed by Daniel, and the place where the horns were pierced was still bleeding. Only then did they realize that this man was a strong guy, suddenly collapsed and begged for mercy, saying that he would never dare to cow again and rob again. There are two versions of the story about this. Some people say that Popeye later killed the bandits and razed the bandit village to the ground. Some people say that the strong man saw that the bandits were farmers in nearby villages and begged for mercy, so he let the bandits leave. Hearing this, the gangsters were terrified out of their wits, hurriedly picked up the wounded and ran away. From then on, no one dared to be a bandit in this place, and the place was peaceful. After paying the rent, there is still a little surplus of cultivated land in Dali, and life is getting better and better.

? Later, a Feng Shui gentleman passed by Zhangjiacun, and when he met Mr. Dali, he repeatedly lamented that if you were in troubled times, you would definitely become a general, lead the troops to fight, expand the territory, or seal the marquis and pay homage to each other. Then he looked at the mountain of three generals behind him and said, "There should be three generals here! You count as one, and there should be two generals in the future. This place is not simple! " Say that finish, and shook his head. "The cat was not leaked. Despite your infinite strength, you are still just a strong plowman. The other two generals are even more elusive. " And don't tell anyone about it in the future, lest you be killed. In order to avoid disaster, Popeye's family once moved several places. Zhangjiacun has also experienced many changes and ups and downs.

? Three mountains and three peaks offer wonderful shows, a large pine forest is lush, and birds are singing in the forest. Smoke clouds are common between the three peaks. Not far from Fengmeiling, it is white in autumn and winter. When people climb to the top, they overlook the peaks, such as hitting clouds at sea, little by little like waves, surrounded by mountains, and packed with water. Tourists burn incense and taste tea here, which has a unique flavor. Three mountain peaks are really like three generals standing among them, guarding one home. Great guys work at sunrise, rest at sunset, and grow old in plain days. He has never done anything earth-shattering in his life. His descendants will no longer be Hercules. Now, people occasionally tell the story of this Hercules. There has never been a general in Sanjiangshan, only his name is left. Or in the future, there will be another general here!
