During the Qing Dynasty, there was a young man named Liu Xiaoxi in Xiao Liuzhuang. He was nearly thirty years old and did not have a family, so he only lived with an elderly mother. Liu Xiaoxi went to the mountain to chop firewood that day, and just after chopping a few times, he suddenly heard a "Help!"

Liu Xiaoxi looked up and saw that a person was thrown to the ground by a wolf not far away, and the cry for help came from there.

It was important to save people. Liu Xiaoxi immediately took the axe and shouted, "Ah... oh..." To attract the wolf's attention, don't bite that person again, and run towards him.

When the wolf heard the movement, it really stopped biting the man, turned around and screamed at Liu Xiaoxi with a warning. The man who fell to the ground saw that the wolf was not paying attention to him, turned over and rolled out five or six meters away.

When the wolf saw that the food that had reached his mouth had run away, he became angry and pounced on Liu Xiaoxi.

When Liu Xiaoxi saw it, she didn't dare to neglect it at all, and hurriedly swung the big axe that was chopping wood to meet the chopping. The big axe was as fast as lightning, and it swept into a tree trunk as thick as the mouth of the bowl, was cut at the waist, and fell, just in the middle of the wolf's pouncing towards Daxi. The wolf happened to pounce under the trunk, and Liu Xiaoxi's axe also arrived, and suddenly cut on the wolf's front leg. The wolf was startled, turned around and ran away.

Liu Xiaoxi shouted a few times from behind, and the wolf was no longer visible. He turned again and saw that the man was still sleeping there. He went up and helped him sit up and saw that it was an old man. Liu Xiaoxi asked, "How did you get here and get chased by the wolf?"

The old man said, "Thank you, brother, for saving me. Help me stand up."

Liu Xiaoxi helped the old man up and found the old man's crutches for him.

The old man said, "You're a nice little brother. You're a good person. Well, you saved me. I'll give you a gift, but you have to get it yourself."

Liu Xiaoxi said, "Thank you, old man, saving you is a small effort, and anyone can do it. As for the gift, I don't want it, you go back, I have to chop wood." Saying that, Liu Xiaoxi turned to leave.

The old man said, "Hey, you little brother, it's not too tight to give gifts, but good things have to be done to the end, how can you give up halfway?"

Liu Xiaoxi was stunned and said, "Oh, that's right, old man, I haven't asked where your home is yet? Take you home."

The old man nodded and said, "You just need to let me finish my sentence. My house is on the back mountain, in a cave, send me back. If you don't send me, what if I meet the wolf that ran away just now on the way?"

Liu Xiaoxi parted the axe to her waist and helped the old man out of the woods to the back mountain. After a while, when he came to the back mountain, the old man pointed to a big stone in front of him and said, "Brother, that's the door of my house, go and push it open."

Liu Xiaoxi was stunned and said, "Old man, why is your door blocked with such a big stone? Is it convenient to enter and exit?"

The old man smiled and said, "What your little brother said makes sense, but you can push it and try it."

Liu Xiaoxi hesitated for a moment, walked to the stone, put her hand on the stone, and just as she put force, the stone "squeaked..." turned to one side. Liu Xiaoxi looked again, where is the hole? It is clearly the gate of a Sihe compound. Thinking in her heart, I have been hunting firewood on this mountain for so many years, why didn't I know there was this family? Still thinking about it, the old man's voice sounded in her ears: "Help me in, send someone home."

Liu Xiaoxi helped the old man into the courtyard. The old man shouted, "Girl, who do you think is here?"

"Godfather, who is it?" A beautiful woman dressed in white walked out of the room. Seeing Liu Xiaoxi, she said, "Godfather, why did you bring him here?"

"Girl, who won't godfather take him with him?" The old man smiled and walked to the woman's side and said, "Have a good talk with him."

"What do I have to talk to him about? He almost scared me to death just now." The woman turned back to the house as she said.

The old man shook his head and said, "Girl, if you are wayward, I will send him back. Don't regret it."

"I don't regret it. I don't want to see him." The girl's voice came from the back room.

He said to the old man, "Old man, when you get home, I will go back. My firewood is still to be sold at home, and my mother is still waiting for me to buy rice for food."

The old man smiled and said, "Okay, you go, thank you, we have everything at home, what do you want? Just take it."

Liu Xiaoxi looked at it, and there were golden and silver everywhere. If you take one, you can eat it for a lifetime.

Liu Xiaoxi shook her head and said, "I don't want anything, I'm going back." After saying that, she turned around and walked out.

Behind them, the old man said, "Silly girl, where can you find such a good person and not chase him?"

"I'm not chasing..."

Liu Xiaoxi came to the place where the firewood was cut and sorted out the firewood and the broken tree trunk, just a pick.

At the gate, seeing where the old lady was sitting, she looked at him and said, "Xiaoxi, where have you been these two or three days?"

Liu Xiaoxi put down her firewood to wipe her sweat and said, "Mother, didn't I go to chop firewood in the morning? I usually come back at this time..."

His mother said, "You're running around and talking nonsense. If it wasn't for this girl Xue'er coming to get me a few meals and waiting for you, I would have starved to death long ago."

Liu Xiaoxi looked at him. She didn't know when, but the girl who was still at the old man's house and didn't want to see her stood beside her mother and looked at him with a flushed face…

A few years later, Xue'er gave birth to a boy and a girl and two children for Liu Xiaoxi. One night, Liu Xiaoxi had a dream in which the old man came to him and said, "Xue'er is my goddaughter.

When Liu Xiaoxi woke up, he found that his wife was really gone. He took the children to the back mountain, where was the big stone in the back mountain? There was only one mountain temple, and the mountain god in the temple was very similar to the old man...

However, from then on, there were often wolf cries on the mountain. Some people said that Liu Xiaoxi's wife, Xue'er, was thinking of her child...
