During the Kaibao period of the Song Dynasty, there was a farmer named Huang Guifa in Gushi County. He has been kind since childhood, but his family was poor.
One day Huang Guifa came home from farm work, it was already late, and he walked home alone along the mountain road.
Huang Guifa suddenly heard a voice and said, "Fellow, do you think I look like a man or a god?" He looked for the source of the voice, when he saw a weasel standing on the ground not far away talking.
He stood there dumbfounded, not knowing how to answer.
At this time, he remembered that the old man in the village said that there was a kind of weasel who has achieved success. When he needs to cross the tribulation, he needs to find someone to ask for the seal.
If people say that it is like a man or a god, it will achieve positive results, it will be grateful, and it will repay those who help it, if it is like any other word.
The weasel would take revenge on that person. Huang Guifa thought about not saying the wrong thing. He was kind-hearted and didn't want to see the weasel give up all his previous efforts and ruin his practice.
In this way, the weasel got Huang Gui's auspicious words, and immediately appeared in human form, achieved positive results, and became a fairy.
In order to repay Huang Guifa, the weasel took out a few pots of gold and gave it to him, but he was still a little afraid and did not dare to take it.
At this time, the weasel said, "Benefactor, don't be afraid." I won't hurt you. Thank you for your good words.
Hearing what the weasel said, Huang Gui had the courage to accept the gold and said tremblingly, "Thank you, Huang Daxian."
In the blink of an eye, the weasel disappeared.
Huang Guifa kicked the gold in his arms, ran back home as if fleeing, and told his parents what happened to the weasel today.
His parents didn't believe it at first. When he took out the gold, his parents were surprised and asked Huang Guifa to hide the gold.
The next day, Huang Guifa's family came to the city and exchanged gold ingots for copper coins, and exchanged them for thousands of dollars.
After he had the money, he bought dozens of acres of land and built a house. For a while, Huang Guifa became a landlord.
The news of Huang Guifa's family making a fortune instantly spread in the village. Many people in the village were curious about how Huang Guifa suddenly made a fortune.
Many people went to Huang Guifa's house to ask for advice on how to make a fortune, but they were all sent away by Huang Guifa saying they had dug up ancestral treasures.
Huang Guifa also donated a lot of money to the temple, which was renovated and a large hall was built.
Huang Guifa, who has become wealthy, has changed his mindset and is no longer satisfied with the current situation. He has married a few concubines and is sensual every day.
Indulge in alcohol and pleasure, indulge in lust and unable to extricate himself. His parents looked at him, anxious in their hearts, and persuaded him several times, but he was prevaricated, and he still indulged in alcohol and pleasure every day.
Who knew that in less than half a year, Huang Guifa was seriously ill, and the doctors who had seen a lot were not optimistic. It was a strange disease.
One night, Huang Guifa had a dream in which a golden-armored god came to him and said to him, "Your nature is kind, and the blessings accumulated in your previous life,
This life is destined to be rich and noble. When you encounter a weasel seeking the seal, it is because you have a fate with the weasel in your previous life, and the blessing in this life is profound, so you are qualified to seal it, but you are currently indulging in alcohol and lust.
It has already damaged most of the blessings. If this goes on, you will lose your life and fall into hell in a few years. Now that you are sick, it is just a warning for you. I hope you can take care of yourself. "
Huang Gui Fa woke up in a cold sweat. The scene in his dream was still vivid in his mind. He was afraid when he thought of it, and he was seriously ill.
Then he remembered what the weasel had said to him when he was leaving, that if it was difficult to burn incense at the door and read Yellow Immortal, the weasel would come to help him.
The next day, he asked his wife to come to the door to burn incense and tell him to read "Yellow Immortal", but after reading it for half a person, there was no weasel, nor the shadow of the immortal.
In the evening, Huang Guifa had another dream, this time it was the image of a weasel incarnating as a weasel, not a human figure.
He only heard the weasel say to him, "I already know about you. The Netherworld has recorded your merits and demerits, and now you still have a chance to make up for them. This illness is the result of indulgence.
I can help you get rid of this disease this time, but if you want to live a good life in the future, go to the temple where you donated money tomorrow, and someone will welcome you. "
After waking up, Huang Guifa did not know what the weasel meant, nor did he know what to do in the temple.
The next morning, he wore a white robe that he had been to the temple before and arrived at the temple. At this time, the abbot of the temple had already greeted him outside the temple. The abbot said to him, "Someone told me that a distinguished guest in white came to the temple to stay today, and this distinguished guest must be the benefactor."
At this time, Huang Guifa realized that the weasel was going to live in the temple, so Huang Guifa stayed in the temple and chanted the Buddha with the abbot every day. Unknowingly, half a year had passed.
Over the past six months, he gradually realized a lot of truth, and he no longer wanted to indulge in drinking and enjoying himself.
After living for a long time, he found that he was really at ease in the temple, happy every day, and didn't want to go home.
He became a layman in the temple, entrusted the family's field affairs to his wife, and began to practice seriously in the temple.
Who knew this would last for decades? At the age of fifty, he became a monk, and later became a generation of senior monks, and finally achieved positive results.
Postscript: Everyone likes to indulge themselves, but they don't know that their blessings are slowly passing by. The more they indulge themselves, the more unsatisfactory their life will be. If you want to live a good life, you still need to be self-disciplined and have good intentions, so that your life will slowly get better. A happy life comes from self-discipline. Indulgence of lust hurts morals. The world must not do this. Remember!
